Network Vision/LTE - LA Metro Market

[SeroFred]

We haven't hit official launch yet, I don't think? So probably there are no guarantees on coverage or consistency as they set up and test the network. That's my guess anyway..

 

 

There are no guarantees no matter what. With wireless technologies there will always be spots where you don't have coverage or it is bad.

Thats what I was thinking. But that hasn't been the case in any other area ive been in. TIRED of waiting! Ahh!

 

I hear ya. I bought the Samsung Epic in 2011 and couldn't hold a Wimax signal. Almost starting to regret coming back to Sprint, but it should definitely improve. And i love the phone i got.

FYI

No LTE this morning in Alhambra around the Mission and Fremont area where there has been a consistent signal.

Los Angeles seems to be off and on. It's progressing, but it seems like they have slowed down a bit. I'm hoping its like Chicago and we start seeing big acceptances soon.

yeah I know what you mean. It's very spotty but coverage keeps improving which is all we could ask fo r. Now if it stops Improving g th en we worry lol

So, I've noticed 4g was connecting more consistently lately at work, so I did a speed test. When outside in the strongest spot, 10.5mbs download abd 1.5mbs upload. Not bad. I'm happy with that, but the catch is that unless I'm in an ideal spot outside, it's not as consistent.

 

My office is at the corner of Fairfax and Wilshire.

LTE is finally right outside my door step in Hawthorne. I get about 4-8 down. The other day going to in n out on inglewood I got 21down and 6 up. Faster then my home Internet. I used sensorly also.

[drexappeal]

So, I decided to test the lte speed outside my office again today.

 

1st Test

12.7mps down

4.5mps up

 

2nd test

13.5mps down

2.5mps up

 

I don't mind that at all. Hope the numbers keep increasing. Connectivity seems to keep getting better, so hopefully it'll continue.

How did text and Dodger Stadium's WiFi preform? I won't bother asking if voice was having issues (since voice usually is fine at large venues) or if data was working fast since 3G crawls to snails pace at Dodger Stadium.

You work at Porto's? So when you going to give us the S4GU hookup? ;P

[LAbeach]

Now that south bay is getting LTE attention at 405/Inglewood Ave I might make the move to sprint.

Does anyone have experience or advice about doing biz with Credo (sprint service)?

Is there any data throttling or true unlimited?

Also, I really am waiting for simultnious voice / data and it looks like the new Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One don't do it.

Any V+D phone suggestions?

Love the quote of speeds will get faster when it is official. The marketing department has a magical afterburner switch? "let's make it slow during pre launch!"

 

"Tower, this is ghost rider requesting a speed increase. "" That's a negative ghost rider the 4g core is full. "

Regardless, that is true. Greater live site density equals faster speeds.

Yes I understand that but they make it sound like a switch is going to get flipped at launch. When in reality nothing happens and site rollout continues on...

Opening day at Dodger Stadium was atrocious. Little 4G at least on field level and when it's pack, gl to everyone. I had creat 1x but no data or in and out the whole time, even after leaving the game. I did take a picture of the Tower, maybe someone can ID if there is sprint there or not.
