Hi there

 

I'm a little confused about iPhone 4S compatibility with Network Vision when CDMA is deployed on the 800mhz band. It looks like Apple states the iPhone currently supports 800mhz:

 

CDMA EV-DO Rev. A (800, 1900 MHz)

 

http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html

 

This is confusing to me because I don't know how that could be possible when Verizon is using 850. Can anyone clarify this? Will current iPhone users on Sprint connect using 800 when it launches or will they continue to use 1900?

Apple refuses to call the cellular 850 band by its descriptive name and continues to call it 800. No current version of iPhone will run on 800 SMR when Sprint begins to offer CDMA on it. This question has been answered many times over in this forum. Please use the search bar in the upper right hand corner in the future rather than starting a whole new thread to ask a question.

      I don't have anything solid to offer on Cumberland, but I came down US-15 today and the water tower site in Weber City is now up and running with B2/12/4/71 (035ACCxx), I believe I saw new T-Mobile antennas on the tower at Sprouses Corner which I will try to confirm on Saturday (definitely not running if they're there), and I believe I may have connected to something that got converted in Farmville.  By process of elimination, my guess is Lancer Park, but I hope to find out tomorrow or Saturday. So upgrades are clearly coming.  You may want to see if your local government officials can tell you anything.  Probably not, but can't hurt to ask. - Trip

      Interesting twist.  Today, I took off for southern Virginia and had my T-Mobile B71 phone (Revvlry on Android 10) and I noticed the GPS was bad as compared to my other two devices on SCP on the dash.  Couldn't get it to clear by toggling the Location Services box, so I quit and restarted SCP. When I did so, it first came up with the bad coordinates, then extremely rapidly zipped through from where it was stuck all the way up to where I was currently, like the coordinates were backlogged and then suddenly flushed out within a few short seconds.  More bizarrely, I noticed the same behavior on two other devices (Pixel 3a and Moto One 5G Ace, both on Android 11) and had to do the same thing to those.  I also dumped my trails on all three, assuming they were all bad by then.  The rest of my devices were correct. I was barreling down the highway at the time, so I couldn't investigate further.  Other than my quoted message above, I've never seen this behavior before, and now it seems to be widespread.  - Trip

      Does anyone have any updates to the Cumberland/Mineral County area? Specifically looking to get TMHI in Ft. Ashby.

      Actually, you are correct. It is possible Dish won't take it. Meanwhile both Dish and T-Mobile pretend they don't want it for negotiation purposes.

      I believe one of the merger conditions was they had offer to sell it to Dish.  EDIT: Oops didn't see that this had already been answered.
