Weird , when I was at the Sprint I noticed 2 Galaxy S2's that had 4G but all the other phones didn't have it at all it was weird because I was at Green Acres Mall , I know for a fact that LTE hasn't reached that far . I ran some speedtest but anyone care to explain why these to phones has LTe .

The Galaxy S2 is a WiMAX 4G handset. No LTE.

You know its funny the whole time I was running after him I was thinking the samething . But I most likely would've fought him for it , I mean if he had some sorta weapon then he wouldn't have ran he would've stabbed me took my phone & left me there to die .

Was it a big guy? You think you could've handled him? It's too bad you didn't have a extra phone on you so u could've snapped a pic of him and maybe he would've ran without the phone.

Yeah , He was 17-18 looking athletic build . I have pretty big hands says everyone so one punch probably would've stun him enough for me to take my phone & go

With all the sites live in more complete markets like Chicago and PR, why aren't the Sensorly maps more dark purple? I think the LTE sites are pretty dense on those areas.

 

Could be the mapping issue sensorly had during that time but as I can c it is a lot of dark purple here in Chicago.

Any attempt to fight back could have ended tragically. Better to just cut your losses and move on.

 

 

Yeah that's true also especially for a cell phone.

NV 3G is just great, the difference is very noticeable. Speeds remained fast (1.5+ Mbps) in Midtown during rush hour, everything loaded in an instant.

 

Too bad I'm in legacy land 99% of the time, I hope they begin working here soon.

People, get back on topic. Isaiah, sorry you phone was stolen. Granted the phone was stolen in NYC and this is the NY Thread, but it's about Network Vision. If anything post further discussions in the off topic thread, lets try to keep this thread on track.

    • A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.
    • Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.
    • Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.
    • Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.    
    • What is the cheapest way to try Dish's wireless network?  Over the past year I've seen them add their equipment to just about every cell site here, I'm assuming just go through Boost's website?  What phones are Dish native?
