Well hopefully soon they will accept it for 4G so we can map it!

Had almost no data signal at my house today, could this be a sign of good things to come? The nearest tower has been upgraded and 3g speeds had been pretty good until this morning when it basically went to barely on 3g or 1x. I am in Clovis near Ashlan and Clovis. Hopefully not just a normal outage.

Hopefully it's not a normal outage. I would like to see Clovis have a cluster acceptance very soon.

This is happening in bakersfield as well. I went from getting .70 download to .5. It was also switching from 3G to 1x constantly. Hopefully they're putting in work.

Lol, I guess you haven't been following my photographic escapades over the last few months. There's only two sites in the city Clovis that have not been physically upgraded yet: The one at the rodeo grounds and the one over by Home Depot at Shaw/Willow. There's also two sites in the county that haven't been upgraded yet, as far as I know: The one out on Bellaire that you went and took pictures of plus the one out on east Shaw, between Leonard and McCall, I believe. It has been about a month since I went to check those two out.

 

As far as completed sites are concerned, the following Clovis-area sites are ready to go, hardware-wise:

 

1. Alluvial and Peach (this was the first hardware-complete site in Clovis; mid-september)

2. East Copper

3. Minnewawa and Shaw

4. Herndon and Tollhouse

5. Ashlan and Clovis

6. Academy and Shaw

7. Herndon and Thompson

 

It's that stupid rodeo grounds site that is holding things up, I swear. The freaking permit is issued! EFFING WORK ON IT ALREADY

I found Band Class 10 outside of Bakersfield going up to Tehachapi! Sprint is starting deployment of 1x800 voice in the Bakersfield area now. I'll check in Tehachapi too!

 

(No PRL modifications since we can't with the 5S.)

unofrtunately I guess it was just a normal outage, signal is back to about what it's been the past few months which is better than most of Fresno (around 1.0mbs downloads) but compared to the LTE I was getting last week in Anaheim, uhmmm... I want LTE!

Woops, I guess I wasnt paying attention!

 

Oddly enough, my focus was on the three sites that havent had any work, as theyre the three closest to my families house!

 

Thats the rodeo sight, the nextel site, and the mcall/leonard site.

 

I never got a pic of the leonard/mcall site because its deep in someones property, and when I drove by the homeowners were around, so I felt awkward stopping, getting out of my car, and taking pictures of their property.

Just got off the phone with a Sprint Rep.  I wanted to see if my plan included Direct Connect.  I asked him, since I was on the line, how the upgrade in Kerman looked.  He told me that all call reps just received a tool this week to look up statues of your 5 most used towers and see when they would have LTE.  So Kerman/Biola/West Fresno it looks like cluster launch by May.  He made it a point to say that they would be launching together.

Statues? Maybe that's why Fresno has so many problems! Lol, jk. Let's hope they do launch together so the eCSFB issue doesn't creep up on anyone in the area.

Sometimes I wonder if they are not just some ugly statues.  LOL.  Wrote my last post as I was running out the door.

May just so happens to be 90 days away. It sounds like a placeholder to me: ie, could be next week, could be next month, could be July. I wouldnt place any bets.

 

 

As for todays update....

    • I think the push for them is adding US Mobile as a MVNO with a priority data plan.  Ultimately, making people more aware of priority would allow them (and other carriers) to differentiate themselves from MVNOs like Consumer Cellular that advertise the same coverage. n77 has dramatically reduced the need for priority service at Verizon where the mere functioning of your phone was in jeopardy a couple of years ago if you had a low priority plan like Red Pocket. Only have heard of problems with T-Mobile in parts of Los Angeles. AT&T fell in between. All had issues at large concerts and festivals, or sporting events if your carrier has no on-site rights. Edit: Dishes native 5g network has different issues: not enough sites, limited bandwidth. Higher priority would help a few. Truth is they can push phones to AT&T or T-Mobile.
    • Tracfone AT&T sims went from QCI 8 to 9 as well a couple years ago. I'm pretty neutral towards AT&T's turbo feature here, the only bad taste left was for those who had unadvertised QCI 7 a couple months ago moved down to 8. In my eyes it would have been a lot better for AT&T to include turbo in those Premium/Elite plans for free to keep them at QCI 7, while also introducing this turbo add on option for any other plans or devices. As it stands now only a handful of plans can add it, and only if you're using a device on a random list of devices AT&T considers to be 5G smartphones.
    • My Red Pocket AT&T GSMA account was dropped to QCI 9 about a year ago.  Most recently 8 for the last few years prior.  Voice remains at 5.
    • https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/05/att-announces-7-monthly-add-on-fee-for-turbo-5g-speeds/ Hopefully we don't ever see T-Mobile do something like this. Based on how I was treated with my Credit Limit, it's definitely not the same company it was before the merger, and it's entirely possible they'd try it.
