Network Vision/LTE - East Michigan Market (Detroit/Flint/Ann Arbor/Tri-Cities)

[Overboost]

I can confirm dearborn tell him to turn airplane mode on and then off I have mapped out everything I could have in the dearborn market onto sensorly running

 

He's tried cycline airplane mode, but still no luck. Any other suggestions?

Check to see if his phone is in CDMA/EVDO/LTE mode, and not just CDMA? Just something that could be overlooked.

Mapped a lot more around Hamtramck it should upload to the sensorly soon

The site at I-69/I-75 in Flint is now LTE active.

Thanks for the tips guys. I told him to check the network mode as well.

I was doing a little mapping of the newly lit site north of Holly and drove by the site at the gravel pit by Mount Holly (I-75/Grange Hall Rd). There are two towers there: one with multiple occupants and Sprint occupying the monopole. It looked like the Sprint rack had 1 NV panel + RRU placed between the legacy equipment on each sector.

 

I'm not terribly skilled at picking out whose panels belong to who. Can anyone in the area take a gander and see if my unskilled observation might be correct? If so then this site might be ready to go live soon.

The tower at Mt Holly has already been worked on.

I'll have to see if I can get some usable pics of that tower then since it's not listed here as In Process.

I-275 near Indian Trail that's Ash Twp. Southeast of the village of Carleton in a whopping 1/4 square mile area at 2 to 10 Mps!

That's because it's not in process. It's done. It's already broadcasting LTE. Check Sensorly.

Just drove by the site I'm talking about at Grange Hall and 75. Not a lick of LTE. Sat at the entrance of I-75 Aggregates cycling airplane mode and forcing lte mode. Nothing. I was in the area Thursday and this morning and only picked up the tower up by Dixie Hwy and 75. Drove directly by the site Wednesday and nothing from that site. The only thing I see on Sensorly is the tower by Dixie Hwy and 75. Some of that is my contribution.

 

I don't think we have the same site in mind. The tower I'm referring to is not marked as In Process, Complete or anything on this site. There are no upgrades indicated for that site on network.sprint.com. I thought the possibility of NV equipment on that tower existed though my skills at identifying panels at distance are weak. This is why I asked for help from members in the area. If upgrades had occurred to that site then I thought it prudent to submit that info to Robert so our maps could be updated. One thing I am not weak on, however, is knowing the difference between the site at Belford and 75 (Dixie Hwy area) that has active LTE and the site at Grange Hall and 75 that I found no evidence of LTE.

My brother texted me last night from Woodhaven/Taylor area of Michigan, and said he had a full bars of LTE on his iPhone 5. There is a little blip there already (Pennsylvania Rd and Allen Rd). Hopefully someone will start mapping out downriver some more! Can't wait to visit Michigan again later this summer!

Hoping to find out how to map on sensorly. Iphone5?

Not possible that I am aware of

I'll be over that way next weekend and will do some monitoring as I am in the area.

A friend from the downriver area was visiting this weekend. We installed Sensorly and set it up on his Evo LTE and he's going to do some mapping later today.

The tower on Newburg RD south of Cherry Hill at the railroad traks was being worked on when I drove by today.

LTE is live in downtown holly

Has the equipment on the water tower been upgraded? I've been sick the last couple of days and haven't managed to get out and about.

 

My phone was locked onto the Belford Rd tower pretty good the other night so I took it through town so see how far I could get. The track on Sensorly right thru town was from me on Monday night.

 

ADDED: I just drove through Holly and nothing in-town has been upgraded. Any LTE signal at this time is fringe from Belford Rd/I-75.

Hey guys, pulling some LTE in Farmington Hills over on Halsted and Grand River, will post speed test later

Could be from Southfield. The signals can go a bit of distance in the right conditions. Hopefully it is a new site.

Right after my post above I got 4g in Livonia on Middlebelt about 5 mile to 6 mile. I have not had a signal there before, even after Southfield went up. Have to try mapping out the Farmington area tomorrow.
