Thanks for the tip, that would be a great christmas gift but in most of the cases, customer service know less that S4GRU readers, they only know when they're closer to the market launch I think.

 

The first sites in PR started to show in september, in 3 months we have around 60-65% completed NV sites, realistically speaking I don't think they're gonna finish the other 45% in a month, hopefully i'm wrong. I think february-march we should see more than 95% completed.

If all upgraded sites are going to get backhaul and LTE then they are nowhere near 65% complete.

[elkaku]

that from the añasco site the vertedero site doesn't have lte at the moment

 

Better then !!!!! Me like like!!!!

That customer service is here in Puerto Rico. I call to report the signal and he told me that they are working in the NV and they hope to finish on December. We'll see.

I think that we could do onsite feedback to the forum in the mayaguez area so we can get a better idea of whats going on in "la sultana del oeste" without giving more work to Robert, we have some mayaguez or close towns members, we can do some NV antenna hunting.

 

Im gonna list the seven antenna locations so if you have a camera with a decent zoom, snap a pic and post it here so we can determine if it have NV equipment.

 

1) Video avenue rooftop (in front of Centro Medico, easy access)

2) Cerro las mesas (Bella Vista) after you pass the hospital and 7th day adventist church, is on the left of the road. (Easier to spot and to shoot pic)

3) I think we can see it from viaducto, is in the rooftop next to formerly stereo gema.

4) Downtown (around howard johnson hotel). Dont know exactly location, is on one of the rooftop around that area.

5) Mayaguez Terrace traffic light, its on the rooftop of one of the buildings closer to nestle.

6) In front of the "Vertedero", (probably easy to take pics)

7) The last one is on the Zoo road and PR 351 road, never been around that area so dont know how easy is to spot it.

 

Happy hunting!!

 

Here is the last one. Hope this help.

 

PS- Location was easy, since it had a sing

Yes, I was talking about NV sites accepted, LTE on sites are only 25-26 so that's a very low percent. Thanks for the clarification.

Here's the downtown site. There were several arrays of antennas. The firs pic was taken from Candelaria street, along Mayaguez' Cathedral side. The second pic was taken from Ricomini Bakery.

Thanks again Toyrunner, on the second one we can see clearly the RRU behind the panel, a clearly sign of NV installed, according to antennasearch its only a sprint site and mayaguez taxi services, so 2 of the 7 sites have nv equipment.

 

Toyrunner did you check if you get eHRPD in those sites?

[osva]

The site that got updated near plaza Guaynabo has no lte yet.

I agree that HTC makes better hardware but they are both almost identical in other regards.

I know, but my old evo 4g rooted it had a rom almost identical to the stock new evo. My friend has one and I had the opportunity to play around and felt like it was the same phone... I wanted something different....

I wanted to keep mine but it died after i ran over it with a truck and even though it had an otterbox cover it suffered internal damages and besides i got almost 60$ for trading it!!!!

Damn! such a shame... if anything happened to my Note 2, i wouldn't want any other phone to be my backup other than my Evo

Spotted some LTE love in San Juan by the ferry terminal. Mapping it as I type. Saw it a bit late as I was getting aboard the ferry itself. Got distracted finding portals in Ingress.
