cjbanks Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Hello. At my lake house (summer home), my Galaxy S4 is always connected to eHRPD, and my tower has had 3G and 800mHz upgrades. I always thought that eHRPD ran through LTE backhaul (or core), and if the LTE backhaul is in place, why wouldn't they have turned on LTE? -- Chris P.S. My tower is the Wolcottville, IN (46795) tower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rukin1 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 800 is all over fort wayne. But on this tower, Why does sprint have two racks?? and what's that box all the way to the left(the one i circled)?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rukin1 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I think 800 is officially launched. I've actually been connected to 800 for the past 2 days lol.. only touched 1900 once and then went roaming on data and stayed on 800 voice xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montisaquadeis Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Not sure if Edwardsburg is part of the Ft. Wayne/South Ben Market or another. I see eHRPD every now and then for a brief moment on my HTC One SV but most of the time I am on 1xRTT here with boost mobile. I would assume my phone is looking for or has found a LTE signal when it switches to eHRPD but it finds a very weak one that quickly disappears and then it switches back to 1xRTT. But according to both the Sprint and Boost Mobile coverage maps I am suppose to be recieving LTE here at home since I live about a mile from the Michigan Indiana Border.

Rukin1 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 yaa boy. Towers in Huntington/Roanoke have there 4G towers Live. Didn't even have to do a PRL update 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idontwantthis04 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 What's happening in Auburn? They've had the 3G/800 stuff done for months. Where is the LTE? And actually, I'm not sure if the 800 mHz works either though. Last time I forced my phone to 800, it didn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S4GRU Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Is there any word on band 26 and 41 LTE deployment in Fort Wayne? Schedules for these two bands are in the Premier Sponsor section.

The metal pipe work that extends out from the tower that holds the equipment(atennas/RUUs). They put that up after they removed all of the old legacy equipment.

So you could know about what time frame 8t8r will be going up and what has been accepted so far. If you upgrade to Premier Sponsor. Sadly the only thing I can tell you is that sprint is deploying 8t8r all over the united states. This I know sometimes can be a big step up from just being a member, but it is so worth it. I know a few guys who have went from member straight to Premier and they love being Premier member. They have not once regretted it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love randomly checking out the towers for anything new. But with this 8t8r, It makes me want to do it even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamjamessimon Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Do people think that LTE service in fort Wayne is generally better than 6 months ago?? I'm out in aboite right now and its definitely way worse in the same spot than it was last spring....

So it would only get worse not better. There are now a few B41 sites, so in those places it would be better for Triband devices. Sprint service only improves by B41 capacity overlay in a mature B25/B26 market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
