Network Vision/LTE - Columbus Market

[COZisBack]

Read again. I didn't say anything about SignalCheck Pro.

 

Never said you did sir. I was saying, that your instructions to obtain information using LTE Engineering screen is more reliable than relying on SignalCheck Pro.

If you're having problems connecting to LTE and you know you're near one that's working, and you have your MSL code you could always go into your ##DATA# menu change your Others>HDR/1X selection to "LTE Only". Obviously don't forget to change it back to "LTE+CDMA+EVDO" or whatever mode you were on before.

 

Can someone check what there phone displays... Make sure mine isn't jacked, couldn't pick up lte yesterday when everyone else was...

I don't have an LTE capable phone yet, but I was at the Sprint store at Easton and all of the phones had LTE rocking.

[quicksand jesus]

ERMAHGERD!! LTE!!!

 

I was down on Morse and it worked fo sho!

If you've messed with bands in the phone info setting this could cause it.  Only way I could get back was to do full stock install from the stock flash and then I did the factory reset back to zero as in requiring a hands free activation.  Not sure which one did it.  Also if you flashed your own basebands through out the life of the phone I know there were a few of just the modem and not all the other NVRAM pieces too.  Bad zip files there.  Could be a complete mess as you don't which ones you are missing now, not sure if you can go back to the beginning and start working up from there.  It's also the EVO LTE which does have issues with LTE.  A couple guys in our market had issues with theirs not connecting to LTE, not sure what the store did to fix it.

Just got back from testing off morse rd. it popped up right as I got off 270 and kept rolling all the way to i70 and popped up here and there on my sprint ipad all the way to 270 and 23 very weak up there. It was great! Have a note II so I'm not sure if I can get 800 yet I know Note II had a prl update to remove 800 until they could get the compatibility issues resolved. Wow!

[kineticman]

I HAD to drive up to Morse Rd area this afternoon to test the LTE.  Way out of my way but totally worth it.

 

Only had a few minutes to play around with but followed Digiblur's advise and took a screen shot of the Field Test.  Wasn't able to get all three vectors but this is what I found:

 

Physical Cell ID:  203

Cell Identity: 140556802

 

This was from an iPhone 5.  Let's all compare what Cell ID# we see over the next few days and confirm that it's just one tower (which is likely is).

I'm pretty excited watching this sensorly map being built up with 4G in Columbus. I'm thinking about doing some more mapping here shortly.

I mapped the SE purple (Easton Way) it was weak obviously (111) as it dropped before I could complete screenshots.

I've never messed with the settings before... I restored one of my old roms and will attempt to get lte again tomorrow.

Has anyone said if this is 800 or 1900? By the covered distance it looks like 800 and no downtilt on the antennas.

Cell ID 203 above plus yours showing 388 means two confirmed towers, right?

No. I assume this is a three sector site.

Few problems there. Nextel isn't shut down yet nor do all of you have 800 LTE devices.

That's more than 169, but like you said before, we don't know the intervals they're using for Columbus. Only way still to know is if someone goes to where we know all 3 sectors are pointing and gets those numbers, then goes to one of the previously marked areas and checks there.

Or if someone drives around the site with an iphone and snags all three screen shots. That phone shows both style numbers. And the long one should increment by one from north to clockwise around the site.

 

I really don't know if your market equipment has a set interval on the three digit one. You guys will have to figure that one out.

I'll make a run out there in a minute with my Note 2 to see what I find, once I watch a little more of the draft.

I make sure someone else drives after I get done watching the draft.

[Zaevansious]

I wish they would kick on Lte by Lincoln village near the casino. I can't even get a EVDO-A signal and I'm less than a quarter mile between two different sites.

[rock819]

Marion needs some 4glte love. I feel like the red headed step child that everyone has forgot about.

[ryry4ya]

Yeah, Toledo's got one site ready to go its been sitting for over almost a month. everything's done I need an inspection . Ohio will get it all, it's gonna be a hot month in July for towers that is

Hi everyone,

I didn't map anything as per request of someone on here due to my use of a Galaxy Nexus and some inherent flaw within. However, I did snap a couple screen shots near my house in North Linden. (Around Ferris and Cleveland)

 

I didn't get a chance to speed test it before it dropped off, but here they are.

If you don't have an HTC device then screenshot the LTE engineering screens so others can see the serving cells.
