<br />Ahhh...gotcha. I did send a few people the corrected PRL for PR. They shouldn't have to wait. Unless the inside info means the sites are blocked but their device is specially authorized.<br />
<br /><br />Can I have the corrected PRL

They are upgrading the entire network, not just cities. So they upgrade each site the moment it is ready. It is typically faster to have a rural site ready to upgrade than an urban site. Backhaul i

Your complaints are rather pathetic. To complain right in the middle of active deployment is ridiculous. The speed in which Sprint and Samsung have converted sites in Puerto Rico is unprecedented. E

Guys. Sprint is better than ever. No more drop calls for me from UPR to Toa Baja and vice versa. Very good LTE speed. UPR Río Piedras Campus have LTE everywhere and usable 3g if LTE isnt available. I'

The Galaxy Nexus had no problems connecting to LTE with a foreign PRL. Only my GS3 had problems.

That's right... Forgot about that. It was only the S3 and EVO it had an affect on. And it was a qualcomm paper thatbibwas reading about the one record per geo was required for lte to work.

Im going tomorrow to the Airport in San Juan where I know there is LTE. I have a GS3, but as I have read I need a custom PRL to be able to connect. Will anyone provide me with this PRL through a PM so I can use sensorly and run some speedtests? Thanks in advance !

It is not my intention to disrupt the conversation but there is something that's been bothering me since this morning.

 

My phone's clock randomly goes 4 hours forward. Could this be cause by all the tinkering going on in the network? From what I understand the time info comes from the towers.

 

A yes or no will work. Thanks!

seems like the only way to do it is using a PC, THIS is the guide I followed. not as easy as it was on previous HTC phones where it could be changed right on the device :(

After going to the airport where I know there is coverage, I came back unsuccesful as my GS3 failed to pick up a LTE signal. I am running the latest leaked LJ7 modem with 25006 PRL. Does anybody know what went wrong?

 

This also got me thinking that maybe so many more LTE sites might be online and we just cant connect to them. :/

Once a site is complete its not always discoverable. Anyway I will be in San Juan over the weekend so I will see how things go.

Apperently Sprint un cover LTE in Caguas in the itersection of the #1 with the # 30 and in Bairoa and some coverage infrotn of the Turabo University.

 

just: WOW! if we can get even half those speeds in real-world usage once the network's officially launched, it's gonna be awesome and I'm gonna be real happy!

Kind Of. I restore my Iphone 5 using Itunes. When the restore is done, it change the PRL. This PRL is diferent than the current 5508 or something like that. I did this because i read in a blog about customers angry about data speeds on the Iphone 5 and someone come up with this as a solutions of it meaning that this PRL is compatible with the current changes that sprint is making to the network meaning NV and LTE.

      Network Vision/LTE - Long Island Market

      Just mapped at least 8 5G small cells (all 109xxxx gNBs) while driving on the Southern State. They all seem to be n25/n41. I'm pretty sure nearly all of them are upgrades of existing small cells as opposed to new builds but I'm glad to see Crown Castle/T-Mobile hard at work getting midband 5G on all of these. Each of the unpinned gNBs belong to 1-2 small cells. I still can't pin these sites until the Cellmapper devs give us the option to split cells for 5G sites.

      Their offers have been crap recently, so this is just more evidence to not buy from T-Mobile.

      T-Mobile Will Soon Prevent Early Payoff Of Phones Receiving Bill Credits If you finance a phone with T-Mobile it will remain locked until paid off but now you won't be able to pay off early. If you don't currently purchase your phones from the manufacturer here is another reason it might be a good idea.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and could potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.  — — — — —  Old permit for this new install expired but a new one was recently issued. It's gonna be similar to the site at 360 Forman St in Brooklyn Heights. Permit calls for only 3 antennas to be installed so I'm assuming it gonna be Band 2/41/66 and n25/41 only which is a bit of a downgrade from the now decommissioned full build that was on 871 7th Ave but in it's current state the nearest macro is a few blocks away and a small cell at Broadway and 55th is doing a lot of heavy lifting in the area so anything helps.
