It added a whole bunch of jibberish. 2 klatapaT gnisu III S yxalaG gnusmaS ym morf tnes Yep. Same to me. It even chops my edits. Sometimes it quotes messages from a year ago too.

Kevster1321 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I ask because there are two towers 3 and 4 miles away. The father one will get NV first so I just wanted to know if it would reach that far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaQue Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Im in town between two towers about 2km and 2.5km if it will go 4 miles I will have a lot more to pick from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova46 Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 Slightly off topic but I don't feel it deserves its own thread... How will 800 mhz 1X signal be displayed as compared to LTE/evdo? Like if you're in an area with LTE and 800 mhz 1X, obviously the signal strength will be different. Wasn't sure how they were going to handle that.

WiWavelength Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Wasn't sure how they were going to handle that. If you are referring to signal bar display, most/all current Sprint handsets display CDMA1X and/or EV-DO signal strength, not LTE signal strength. LTE is either connected or not, as evidenced by the 4G indicator. AJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine LTE 800 will just show a 4G icon with more "bars". Robert via Nexus 7 using Forum Runner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koiulpoi Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Sprint will display the stronger signal, so the 800Mhz 1XA, but with an LTE indicator Which, by the way, will be amazing for the Nextel crowd. And a lot of the Sprint crowd. Signal bars are a huge placebo to customers, actual network performance be damned. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexpanther Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Some questions come to mind after reading through all the 800/1xA info on the site today. I read too much, just need some clarity: 1. Is the term 1xA being used only to differentiate it from the old 1x in that it will operate on the 800mhz? Or is the term just being used to signify the 800mhz voice sites with no 800mhz LTE? Or is it because it will be like the old 1x but plus a step up in speed, over 800mhz? -- I did see Robert's comment about using 1xA in Waco and pulling 135kbps, but just wanting to clarify the use and meaning of the term. And, I assume no svdo over the 1xA right? 2. Robert said some sites are being converted for voice over 800mhz, and I see that on the interactive maps; and that more would be added probably in the next 6 months..what is the method to why/when they decide to update an area's towers for voice over 800mhz? Do you think Sprint already has an idea, or its own internal map, with a rollout schedule on converting sites to voice over 800mhz? I understand why an area like Chicago is getting the 800mhz/voice upgrades - they need it now. And I see that for Premiere Sponsors you might have NV Schedule maps..do those at least show the rollout schedule for NV 1900? Thanks! -- just registered and donated today.

There's two different things we're talking about. CDMA 1x-Advanced for Voice on the 800mhz band (better coverage/penetration into buildings & whatnot) and LTE 800mhz for data speeds. 1xA speeds should be consistent but it should be around 100kbps as they don't need much capacity for voice. 2. 800mhz deployment, to my knowledge, will be dependent on area, geography, requirements, etc. They're going to use that low frequency band to cover areas like Vz and ATT. Since 800mhz travels farther and penetrates better than 1900mhz, you don't need it on every tower. If i remember correctly, only about 70-80% of sprint sites are going to have 800mhz up and running with significant overlap etc being the reason that not all sites are going to have it.

gusherb Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 After just over a week since my phone saw CDMA 800 last it's finally reconnected to it after powering the radio off and on. Signal on 1900 was inconsistent but usually hovered around -83 db, on 800 I'm sitting at -71. I really can't wait til this is deployed all over! especially in Chicago where it's needed terribly.

lynyrd65 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 If an 800 MHz site is deployed in a forest, does it make a sound? AJ Only if your ears are cable of hearing such a high frequency noise. In which case life is probably quite interesting for you. Sometimes my ears move out of tune and I hear strange tones myself. I have been hearing them since I was 5 or 6, the frequency is far to high for me to be able to hear usually but I don't know what i'm hearing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynyrd65 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 My case is a little different and happened as I got older. It's called tinnitus. It happens for me once a month on average I would say. It can be any one of 2-3 different tones I hear. One is a noise that is similar to what I hear in absolute silence but is slowly amplified (hard to explain) then suddenly goes away. Another is a distinct frequency that is lower than that. It comes and goes quickly (maybe lasts 10-15 seconds). It is quite random when they occur, I have gone months and months without hearing them then sometimes I hear them a couple times in the same week. It happens so rarely and sporadically though that it doesn't bother me much. Should I be concerned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
