tt0h Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Been bouncing between roaming and distant Sprint connections all day. Appears that my closest tower is offline for Sprint atm. Latt: 40.8667 Long: -81.3442 Hoping it's NV related, but not holding my breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you are getting some bandaid fixes listed at network.sprint.com, could be additional backhaul, voice or data carriers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latt: 40.8667 Long: -81.3442 Hoping it's NV related, but not holding my breath. I was in the dc area early last week and I was experiencing the same thing. This was happening in areas where I should not be roaming at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tt0h Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 I wouldn't be opposed to bandaids at this point =] Currently showing zero bars, then it bounces to Revol and I get a bar or two and it bounces back to sprint.. no bars, etc..

tt0h Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 Well, I can't even receive calls on my phone now - they go directly to voicemail. Connections is still bouncing from a distant Sprint tower and a Revol roam. Hopefully they get this sorted very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryry4ya Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Like I told Robert, I caught a couple of guys at my sites in Toledo-Sylvania OH , they were putting t-1 lines in for Sprint towers. And now I learned no speed or data capacity untill july 29th at the earliest !! The work is done and now waiting for Ericsson. And I know no NV fore me untill 2013 before and after 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tt0h Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 As an update: Just got off the phone with Sprint, at the # ryry provided above. They show no outages in my area so were going to try to re-activate my phone, but couldn't do it because I was roaming. They're opening a network ticket and will let me know as things develop further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tt0h Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 Evening update! Talked to Sprint, via the number that ryry furnished above, and they mentioned that several towers in the area were giving off "alarms." They have begun researching the issue and will get back to me 'soon' to make sure that my issue is resolved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tt0h Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 You may want to give sprint a call and detail the info to them. If nobody is calling/bitching they may not know anything is wrong. Ryry posted a number earlier in this thread that can get you in touch with the right people. Squeeky(sp?) wheel and all that.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
