Dem_Bone Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Was it a false connection? I will try to check again tomorrow, maybe with a TW rom too. Has this happened to you before? We done had someone flying over the river with a strong signal. And someone flying over houses 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
versaiphat Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 i noticed that most sprint store has LTE coverage! are they trying to have those on to sell more phones and service? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgrgrd00 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 i noticed that most sprint store has LTE coverage! are they trying to have those on to sell more phones and service? Probably not. I think we are just at the point where there is enough coverage where a good number of stores may be covered. But I know at least one that you can't pick it up in the store. Yet.

digiblur Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 i noticed that most sprint store has LTE coverage! are they trying to have those on to sell more phones and service? Not quite. Our new store here does. But the other two do not, one of them you stand at the door and look at the pretty RRUs in the air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dem_Bone Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 i noticed that most sprint store has LTE coverage! are they trying to have those on to sell more phones and service? The one on Manhattan, you need to be standing outside to have a weak connection. That does no good on pushing sales for the phones chained up inside the store lol.

TigerNamedTony Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I second that. Stopped by the one on Manhattan maybe three weeks ago and I tried to be sneaky. Yes sir I am just looking around at your phone (but I am trying them all out to see if i can get 4g haha) but it never connected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: I see bigzeto beat me to it! Can't fault you for it, with all the action going. Tho it is good to be out here as well because it tempted me to join the fun to find out what yall were talking about when you say it was discussed in the sponsor forums.

Tongue73 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Can someone post a pic of a speed test on 4g in the new orleans area? I went to the sprint store on Veterans yesterday and did some speed tests on the Note 2 and S3. They were horribly slow. Like under 1mb. Uploads were really bad also. Is this the speeds everyone is getting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to the sprint store on Veterans yesterday and did some speed tests on the Note 2 and S3. They were horribly slow. Like under 1mb. Uploads were really bad also. Is this the speeds everyone is getting? The tower is far from that store, I'm surprised some phone can connect to it, i couldn't get my iPhone to connect when i went to that store. You can find some speedtest in here https://www.dropbox.com/sh/yi70ma10klcgn4c/XT65GbGek4 one of the pictures is showing some of the best speed i have gotten but you will rarely get speeds like that, average is 6-12, upload speeds are all over the place some as high as 10 some as low as .50, and ping is usually 80+ (from what i seen on my phone, from different towers in the city) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said the same exact thing when I posted on facebook today of a screenshot of the speeds of 15mb down and 5.48mb up while at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digiblur Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Want one of 28/13? So simple to do when you are close to the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dem_Bone Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Well if Tony is at Versabar, he would be way closer than me because it's located right across the street from the tower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
