Wait a minute, Wasn't Samsung putting in equipment elsewhere? Not NYC? According to the map.

It's a Samsung RRU because this is a Clear site, not a Sprint site!

Uhh... wasn't really arguing with you there... but you did say

Which isn't true either.

[ryry4ya]

. Ok enlighten us please. You have all the knowledge all the power, who is doing the work sir

I have no idea. That wasn't the point..... 

 

I'm not arguing with you! Why don't you see that!

 

I was just clarifying that it is a clear site, not a Sprint site, and that was the reason for the Samsung RRU. I have no CLUE who is doing the physical work, and I wasn't trying to correct you on that. 

[ryry4ya]

Can't wait for 2.0 to start

What's your problem? Former Clear sites are still being utilized and upgraded to TD LTE.

Close, but a mix of words there. WiMax and LTE are two separate technologies. Sprint/Clear is utilizing the spectrum that was used for WiMax to deploy TD-LTE to provide higher speeds and capacity. 

 

Phones that support this band of LTE, as well as PCS and SMR LTE will be released this fall. The iPhone 5s and Note 3 are notable (hah) exceptions to the list. 

 

The LG G2, GS4 Mini, Galaxy Mega, and Nexus 5 will be Tri-Band, supporting all bands of LTE that Sprint is utilizing.

I was in Ikea in Red Hook and picked up 1x800 from Park Slope. That is pretty far! I was so excited!

That's pretty awesome. Which phone do u have?

EVO 4G LTE, Stock PRL (25015)

[Paynefanbro]

Specifically, I was at Ikea waiting on the line when I heard my phone make a different noise than usual from SignalCheckPro, I looked down and it said 800 instead of 1x.

[Paynefanbro]

 

Unnecessarily large but I'm too lazy to scale it down.

[LTEBrooklyn]

Park slope isn't exactly that far away from red hook. But the fact that u got a signal shows, progress.

It is pretty far when you are on the edge of Red Hook while inside a building that usually swallows up a signal, and that signal came from the Prospect Park side of Park Slope. That is pretty far for NYC, where towers hardly cover a 1000 ft radius. Imagine LTE doing something like that, although it is less usable.

Does the evo have 800 LTE?
