Any updates on the Richmond, Indiana launch? Nothing new posted in the latest sponsor maps... Still says just in progress...

Last I have heard from a reliable source is that 2 of the towers will completed for 3G upgrade and that 4G will be a few days afterward.

When will those 3g towers go online?

Sorry, I meant to put the date in there.  March 11th for the 3G!  Not sure which towers but I believe Walmart effeminately, then either Glen Miller tower or the one up by Hills Pet.

Great! Thanks for the info. Any word on the timeline for the rest of the towers? Who is your source?

I made contact with a guy from Detroit that is with Sprint.  He called me after I tracked down an engineer on LinkedIn with a complaint.  He gave me the March 11th date, and @SprintCares on twitter said within a few weeks for 4G.

 

THe others are not "scheduled" until May, but he stated that may come sooner, once the crews are up here in the area.

Liberty, IN tower and Oxford, OH Morning Sun Rd tower have both been upgraded to 4G, still no handoff.

 

Though, coverage along OH-177 between SR-73 and IN-227 has improved significantly.  Still dropping in Fairhaven valley.

 

Calls on the outskirts of Oxford are garbled a bit, but not dropping.  I hear this is an artifact caused by the mixmash of old 3G and new 4G upgraded towers.

Hello, new to the forum, but I wanted to post that I use an lg g2, and I've been getting what I believe to be sprint spark here in Hamilton, Ohio.  My G2 shows both LTE and the Spark symbol on the top part of the screen. I've been getting it near the Joyce Park area between Pleasant Ave. and Laurel. Ave.

 

Anyone else report on this area being active for Sprint spark?

That is normal for the spark enabled phones to show that even if not connected to spark per say. I do not believe there is spark yet up and running the way it should be in our area. You can force it,but then you won't be able to receive calls and text.

Question about " forcing" lte. I got my msl and enabled band 41. I have my preferred network sy to cDmA/lte. Getting a lot of missed incoming calls, but I'm rarely if ever on lte as it seems to be popping up everywhere I don't go. In fact im usually on a Wi-Fi portable hotspot. Am I " forcing" and can this be the cause of my missed calls?

 

BTW, I know I missed a call when I'm looking right at the phone and a voicemail appears even though it never rang

if you have lte/cdma then your not forcing. usually when you force it's only on LTE which would disable voice calls if you were connected to lte and if you were not in an lte area then you would not have any cell coverage

I think you need to have it set to cdma evdo/lte. I set mine to lte/cdma and couldn't receive calls either. But set to the other and I connect to lte and get calls.

I don't have that option. Just global, CDMA/lte, CDMA, gsm

if you have the g2 then use 5689#*980# then it and connection manager you will see the current setting and have a chance to select evdo with cdma

    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
