Oh my god finally! Universal is now usable on Sprint! Did they totally swap out the Clear B41 with Nokia equipment or did they add it somewhere else?

99.9% guarantee they just turned off the Clear B41 sectors and let the Nokia equipment take over.

I feel like I hit the Jackpot... Lol.... I have a high priority ticket open with Sprint Exec care and they forwarded my ticket to the local Ericsson tech. He called me directly. He was so impressed

This has nothing to do with what you pay for. The deployment is nowhere near done in Orlando. The speeds are because half the towers in the city have been upgraded. So 100,000 LTE users are being c

The reason I asked was that the Clear B41 originally in the area was extremely fringe throughout the parks when I was there.

 

If the Nokia equipment is in the same place or marginally closer than the Clear antennas, then what was reported appears to be very impressive performance, comparatively speaking.

That clearwire tower was still active when I was there but it used Nokia 41 most of the time.

On Universal Blvd below the Wawa, just above International Drive in my hotel and my phone is struggling on B26. Keeps dropping to 800x but the data is non existant. 

 

Outside, a fairly strong B41 signal.

Taking my family to Disney this week for the first time. I'm excited to see what a tri-band device can do in the Orlando market! We'll be in Miami, West Palm Beach, Orlando, and Venice on our trip - the sensorly maps had me pretty optimistic about coverage & speeds. :)

I was there 2 months ago.  The coverage was good but not great.  I was on a iPhone 5S however so your experience may be better than mine.  Disney's free WIFI covers all their hotels and all their parks and was slow at times but nearly always usable.  I usually found Sprint LTE to be a little slower than the Disney WIFI and just auto-connected to Disney WIFI whenever it was available.  Because of the large number of people on WIFI the macro LTE network has enough capacity available to work with those crowds.

 

Recommendation: Bring a external battery and charging cord to the parks.  People use mobile devices a lot when they are there.

Which is sad.  I miss the days of the Wait Times boards and paper-based fastpasses.  It was a much more enjoyable experience than being a slave to our smartphones or tablets just to navigate the park.

Hey, quick question...Anyone ever heard of Glotel, Inc? I'm perusing permits and this company just was issued permits for two sites that haven't been upgraded with 2.5. Also, they don't have the 65 Mhz radios on them yet either....JW if this is Sprint work?

Any B41 in New Smyrna Beach? Even though I'm in CA, calling parents weekly being on HD voice every single time on our devices is awesome!

Posted this in the Jacksonville thread by mistake:

 

Have there been any 2nd carrier b25 sightings in and around Orlando? Is that even possible? I'm in the airport right now and scp is reporting it

 

 

 

In Orlando sprint is borderline on pcs spectrum holdings with 27.5 mhz of pcs a-f spectrum.

 

In addition your scp is a false positive since 8665 is band 25 pcs g block. The reason why scp is saying second carrier is because the gci ends in 04 since in Samsung markers 03/04/05 denote second carrier.

I just posted the same rebuttal in the other thread where this was posted. I hadn't come across this thread, yet.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Yes! That does keep it from wandering off Dish and most importantly, reconnecting immediately (at least where there is n70). Thanks!

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By Trip · Posted

      I have my Dish phone locked to NR-only.  That keeps it on Dish and only occasionally will it see T-Mobile NR SA for brief periods before going to no service. I also don't have mine band locked beyond that, except that I have some of the unused bands turned off just to try to reduce scan time.  Fortunately, my Dish phone is the one with the MediaTek chipset, so it has NR neighbor cells, and I can usually see n71, n70, n66, and sometimes n29 (market-dependent) through those regardless of which band it's connected to as primary. - Trip

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By dkyeager · Posted

      Excuse my rookie comments here, but after enabling *#73#, it seems that the rainbow sim V2? requires n70 (I turned it off along with n71 - was hoping to track n66) to be available else it switches to T-Mobile.  So this confirms my suspicion that you need to be close to a site to get on Dish.  Have no idea why they don't just use plmn. To test, I put it into a s21 ultra, rebooted twice, came up on T-Mobile (no n70 on s21).  Tried to manually register on 313340, but it did not connect (tried twice). I am on factory unlocked firmware but used a s22 hack to get *#73# working.  Tried what you were suggesting with a T-Mobile sim partially installed, but that was very unstable with Dish ( I think they had figured that one out).  [edit: and now I see Boost sent me a successful device swap notice which says I can now begin to use my new device.  Sigh.  Will try again later and wait for this message - too impatient.]

      Hopefully this indicates T-Mobile hasn't completely abandoned mmwave and/or small cells? But then again this is the loop, so take that as you will. Hopefully now that most macro activity is done (besides rural colo/builds), they will start working on small cells.
