Guess what time the switch will be thrown to LTE


Recommended Posts

Any guesses on the exact time Sprint will throw the switch on July 15th, and turn on LTE?

 

 

Mine is 3am!

 

I think it will go live early, by a day or two. I say, some time on Friday.

I wish it would have went live yesterday in the KC area. With all the All Star stuff going on, a little LTE would definitely help. On Sunday I was at the K (baseball stadium) and I couldn't stay connected to 3G. I would drop to 1xrtt at times, then roam on Verizon, then back to 3G.

I'm going to go with sometime early monday, like 3am. I doubt they would lauch a brand new network, with all the potential problems, on a friday/saturday/sunday when most of the customer service reps and techs are enjoying their weekend. But here's to hoping I'm wrong!

I am guessing a day or two early just in case there are any minor bugs that need to get worked out. I will be back in atlanta thursday evening so I will definitely be waiting.

Whatever happened to the HTC EVO 4G LTE software update that we have been expecting prior to LTE turn-on?

There is supposed to be an OTA update in July to fix Google Wallet, so it is hoped that several other fixes will be on board as well. http://www.pocketables.com/2012/07/google-says-that-official-fix-for-google-wallet-is-coming-soon-for-htc-evo-4g-lte.html

They just press the big red easy button on Dan's desk at Sprint HQ :)

 

Actually, it is a flip switch...

Brian Regan is my favorite comedian. He is so funny!

 

"Go...switch flipper!"

 

My favorite skit of his is weight and girth.

A new radio was included so its possible they made changes.

 

And I would expect them to address this issue covertly. Now, how soon do they stop blocking? :scratch:

How is your girth doing, Robert? About 3 girth units?

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but back patience.      
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
