On my way to work this morning I picked up a 4G signal between Hamilton Mason rd. and Tylersville rd. while driving down By pass 4. Hamilton, OH finally getting some love. Sprint GS3.

how strong was the signal cause that is really close to the edge of the tower we already know about if you were getting a strong signal then you found a new tower that has come online

So you're suggesting we shut down this entire site since this site is based on that hobby of talking to cell site workers and takings picture of cellular equipment among other things to track the deve

Been seeing some amazing speeds off my local tower the last week or so on B25! This is off the tower I posted pics of a while back with the very first known 8T8R antennas. Some of you will remember th

OK I am absolutely blown away with the difference between my S3 and my son's S5! I would have not been so frustrated with my service had I known. If I didn't want the note 4 so bad I would upgrade

Thank you for the information.

 

If you get any additional information for the Dayton, OH area, please let us know.

 

I posted this in the Columbus topic figured Id do the same here,

 

 

OK, starting this morning, Monday, Aug 28, 2013, LTE live, active and fast in Dayton from Troy St. and Needmore Road to 75 and Needmore Road.

 

After being promised that we'd have 4G in Dayton by the first quarter or 2010, we're finally getting 4g in Dayton!!!

Sorry it took so long, I wanted to investigate a little more. I must have been getting a weak signal because I haven't picked it up since. Today at work I have not had a cellular signal all day, my phone has been roaming all day, so I'm hoping they are doing some more work in this area. I work on Seward rd. between Symmes and Port Union. I will keep you posted.

My tower (US50 & SR133) which is about 4 miles east of Owensville is getting some upgrades I believe.  There have been work crews out there every eveneing for the past 3 days.  They were running new cable up to the top yesterday.  I have always had prefect 3G service so I believe this might be the upgrade to LTE and not repair.  I get 2.5 megs down on 3G all day long on that tower,

I am in Trenton and connected to 800 on my HTC One. I have no idea what this means for me but Signal Check says 1X 800 and EV-DO.

 

:D

It means that they are starting to turn on the NV equipment on the tower.

The tower closest to my house is on 125 just west of Amelia.  It has been shutdown since last Wednesday.  Late yesterday afternoon I talked to a guy who was packing gear back into his crane at the base of the tower, he told me that the upgrade to LTE was all done and the tower should be on shortly...

 

Fingers crossed...

So how far of a reach do the towers cover? And are they just adding 4g to existing towers, or are they building new ones?

I'm connected to a tower that is 10 miles away from my current location. I can go out more and still maintain service as long as its 1x 800

I can confirm solid LTE around the tri-county mall area.  Bought the wife a GS4 on Wednesday at BB and had good signal.  Also, the test phones at the Sprint store (at least the couple that I played with) were showing 4G on Monday in Tri-County.  Signal is up and down at my home near the cross streets of RT. 4 and Mulhauser....I'll get the sensorly app on her phone and play around this weekend.  My GS2 has shown a little improvement in reception at my home as well in the past couple of weeks.  Just waiting on the GN3 before I upgrade my line.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Yes! That does keep it from wandering off Dish and most importantly, reconnecting immediately (at least where there is n70). Thanks!

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By Trip · Posted

      I have my Dish phone locked to NR-only.  That keeps it on Dish and only occasionally will it see T-Mobile NR SA for brief periods before going to no service. I also don't have mine band locked beyond that, except that I have some of the unused bands turned off just to try to reduce scan time.  Fortunately, my Dish phone is the one with the MediaTek chipset, so it has NR neighbor cells, and I can usually see n71, n70, n66, and sometimes n29 (market-dependent) through those regardless of which band it's connected to as primary. - Trip

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By dkyeager · Posted

      Excuse my rookie comments here, but after enabling *#73#, it seems that the rainbow sim V2? requires n70 (I turned it off along with n71 - was hoping to track n66) to be available else it switches to T-Mobile.  So this confirms my suspicion that you need to be close to a site to get on Dish.  Have no idea why they don't just use plmn. To test, I put it into a s21 ultra, rebooted twice, came up on T-Mobile (no n70 on s21).  Tried to manually register on 313340, but it did not connect (tried twice). I am on factory unlocked firmware but used a s22 hack to get *#73# working.  Tried what you were suggesting with a T-Mobile sim partially installed, but that was very unstable with Dish ( I think they had figured that one out).  [edit: and now I see Boost sent me a successful device swap notice which says I can now begin to use my new device.  Sigh.  Will try again later and wait for this message - too impatient.]

      Hopefully this indicates T-Mobile hasn't completely abandoned mmwave and/or small cells? But then again this is the loop, so take that as you will. Hopefully now that most macro activity is done (besides rural colo/builds), they will start working on small cells.
