Mikey_Bloop Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Absolutely no LTE anymore here in fontana (the tower on the cross streets of cherry and jurupa) and 3G is terrible. Getting .02-.30down and .00-.10up -_____- Every once in a while i get around 4-5bars on my iphone( i usually get 1-3 here) and 3G is usually 1.00-1.80down its usually only for like 2 minutes and then back to the crappy speeds so im guessing they are still testing.

Crews are probably working on the towers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangecrestsprintreppin Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 By the end of the year lte should be covered everywhere guys i dnt kno whats taking them so long tmobile is suppose to have 200 million people covered in the u.s as sprint but they have wayyyyyy more 4g lte coverage than sprint does Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sprint has to run fiber to their towers and/or provide backhaul. This is one of the reason its taking a bit more time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backhaul is probably the largest issue that we have especially in the mountain areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmiw Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 The same issues that have slowed most upgrades are permits, backhaul, equipment, and labor. Backhaul is probably the largest issue that we have especially in the mountain areas. This. A large majority of towers in San Diego are 3G approved at this point, but only a tiny fraction are LTE approved. If all or almost all of the 3G approved towers got approved for LTE, Sprint could launch it in SD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazz57 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Looks like the tower at Date Palm and I-10 (4971) has finally been LTE activated...Still waiting on the nearby towers at Landau/Vista Chino and Landau/30th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey_Bloop Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 So i went to six flags yesterday and i checked sensorly the day before to see the LTE coverage there. Looks like no one has mapped any of the park. There is a little really light purple areas so i thought that I'm not funna get lte there. But throughout the whole park i had strong LTE! My lowest speed was 6mbps down and highest was 19mbps down. The farther back you go in the park like around the ride apocalypse and batman your gunna hit the slower speeds i believe the tower is across the street from the parking lot because there is a tower there and i have full 5 bars in the parking lot. I mapped a couple dots here an there with my cousins android 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rawvega Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Yeah, I was at Magic Mountain last month and I was pleasantly surprised at how strong and fast LTE was throughout the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey_Bloop Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 So here in southridge fontana the 3G is horrific. Its so bad i cant even start a speedtest without waiting 5min to locate the server then saying that the test failed. Havent had LTE in 3 weeks hopefully it gets turned back on. I barely get it in my room with 2mbps down. Its better than having .10mbps 3G 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjcorbin Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Greetings - Been using Signal Check to look for 800Mhz signal in the Chino/Chino Hills/Ontario and Rancho areas, but haven't found any. Anyone seen any in the Riverside/SB market area yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey_Bloop Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Visited the walmart by my school (cal state San Bernardino) and 3G was amazing in that area all around the school too. I was getting .80-2.00 mbps down!!!!! Even im the walmart i was getting around 1.10mbps down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazz57 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 LTE at Landau and Vista Chino in Cathedral City is up! Just mapped on Sensorly. Interestingly as I approached the tower at Landau/30th. (not yet LTE enabled) the LTE signal continued though CDMA had already switched over. It appears to not necessarily be the case that LTE and CDMA need to come from the same cell site.

twospirits Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I emailed sprint and they said all of riverside and san bernardino counties should be covered by the end of the year 2055.

glenavo34 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I emailed sprint and they said all of riverside and san bernardino counties should be covered by the end of the year I called about this LAST year. They initially said May/April. It's now September and I haven't seen any progress and 3G continues to be near useless at times. I'm really hoping they can start speeding things up. On a side note, I'm also wondering if the new triband phones will significantly increase reception of LTE. I know the LG G2 is supposed to be triband. I hope the Note 3 is as well.
