Dmcgaha04 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 It can. When it is in a Sprint LTE coverage area. Robert via Nexus 7 with Tapatalk HD i meant wimax sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S4GRU Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 i meant wimax sorry iPhones are not WiMax capable. WiMax is a dying technology. It stopped being deployed almost two years ago. No one is creating WiMax devices anymore, and Apple never started. In order to use WiMax on an iPhone you need a WiMax hotspot or FreedomPop sleeve.

jasonacg Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 There's life in Lakeland! My friend is now running Sensorly, and is reporting LTE in the Lakeland Highlands area. It's south of the Polk Parkway, and east of SR 37. It's not an all map layers yet, so you may need to zoom in/out a couple of times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonacg Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 On that Lakeland Highlands site, Sensorly speedtest was 9 down 7 up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

81mmMarine Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Yeah I Sell Sprint inside the Citrus Park Mall and live right off of Anderson. I had the LTE on my phone all the way to the mall. Did a speed test and had over 17mb download. The signal is not strong enough yet to come inside the mall but still great to know that it is coming. Also selling Sprint is how I pay my bills!!! Can't wait for the day I don't have to hear "why does my phone only say 3g, I thought it was 4g". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Goats Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 It's Gotta be the tower in progress on Lynn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tampaflusa Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 It's Gotta be the tower in progress on Lynn. It might be one further west, I just was on Lynn and Gunn and no LTE at all in the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSPC Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Maped some LTE in Plant City today. and some on South Wiggins road just east of Plant City. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Goats Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Yep, def not Lynn. Check on my way home. Not to sure which tower this is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonacg Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Must be near Wilsky and Veterans. Went south on expressway from Gunn, and got full scale signal at Wilsky exit. Carried it to about the Waters toll plaza, then sporadic. Check Sensorly soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirlinux Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) I just mapped some spots on between Hanley and Waters - Sheldon and Waters. I Work in that plaza @ Hanley and Waters and I notice I got 4g during the day. Inside the building I got one bar of signal and download speed suk, less than .500m. Outside the building 2 bars of signal downloading little less than 5m. Still suk, but better than .050m 3g GS3 running cm10.1 1/23 nightlies stock kernel Edited January 25, 2013 by sirlinux Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81mmMarine Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I have LTE at my house now in Logan's Gate off of Anderson in Citrus Park. I can't map it though because I have an iPhone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TangoChaser Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I live near the Vets and Erlich, havent picked up any LTE. I'll have to try by the mall though and Walmart. iPhone 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TangoChaser Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 iPhone users, are any of you having an issue where your phone won't pick up LTE unless you restart it? Airplane mode and toggling lte just won't cut it. I had to turn LTE on and then toggle Airplane mood. That worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Goats Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Yeah it's the tower just north of wilkey that's broadcasting. I drove over to it today it's got RUUs up and I had a strong lte signal. I wasn't able to take great photos because its located on someone property and it was set back a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonacg Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Does Sprint transmit from any of the flagpole-style towers (54@Suncoast, I-75 near Apollo Beach, for just two examples) that are scattered around the area? If so, is there enough room to cram LTE hardware into those sites? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe there are any sites in Tampa area that aren't going to be upgraded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majorzaid Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'm picking up LTE in N Wesley Chapel, near Zephyrhills. I'm mapping it in Sensorly. I'm sure it's a new tower. I just cannot say which one it is just yet. I'll be out mapping for a while. More to come... Sent from my Galaxy S III 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majorzaid Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 It looks like in Sensorly that the tower near SR 54 and 75 is broadcasting LTE now in Wesley Chapel. That's my best guess. I was able to get over 25mbps down near I75 & SR54. And around 7mbps down at SR54 & Morris Bridge Rd. I will map more later this evening. There was 4G all the way from near Zephyrhills, down SR54 to I75, then S to Bruce B Down. I mapped in Sensorly the whole way. I'm back at 'University Hospital' / FL Hospital Tampa once again, as my poor grandmother is ill again. Also, picking up 4G at the hospital again...
