Everything 800mhz (1xA, LTE, coverage, timeline, etc)

Calm down.  Topical discussion will return.  We have just hit a periodic lull.  Now, do you need to be driven to see your psychoanalyst?

I do. The pain killers are making me too woozy to drive. Maybe I will operate some heavy machinery . . I know, how about a train!

Hmm. Reminds me of one of our open houses recently at the train club here in Dsm, train cars thrown everywhere  :lol:  :lol:   Boy this thread took some turns quick - down the proverbial dirt road and trying to get back to the main road.

 

Getting close to Christmas - lulls, less posting, craziness.   

 

Btw, Merry Early Christmas to you folks on the 800 thread from Iowa.

It always goes off every now and then into the weeds, but it is highly entertaining!

 

Question AJ, with all the recent NV updates in the Cleveland market that are clearly in the IBEZ zone, how is this possible? I mean, I'm surely not complaining but I was for sure we wouldn't get any 800Mhz love.

I'm not AJ, but Sprint can use ESMR in the IBEZ areas as long as either they ensure there's no emissions into Canada exceeding around 120 dBm RSSI (something like 135-140 dBm RSRP) or they have permission from the incumbent spectrum holders in the other country. So either they've worked things out with Telus Mike or they've determined there's no way excessive emissions are reaching Canada.

The international boundary runs through the middle of Lake Erie. That provides an added degree of protection through distance based attenuation, since there are effectively no wireless operations for 15-20 miles on either side of the border. It works in Cleveland, but it will not help Detroit and Buffalo.

1x800 is everywhere in Los Angeles. Well pretty much everywhere I go. Of course I have the G2, so it makes it annoying to search for it.

Any chance these will be coupled with an 800 LTE acceptance?

I do have some more Band 26 LTE sites to post in the Premier Section too.

How do you get those icons on the upper left of your screen? Also I might be blind but I couldn't found out how I know if I'm connected to 800 on my LG.g2

I can't find signal check pro. Just network signal into, ROM toolbox pro or network signal info pro. Which one

SignalCheck is one word and it's by Blue Line Computing.https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blueline.signalcheck&hl=en

 

Here is the link to the thread for the app too http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/3060-signalcheck-android-app-to-monitor-your-2g3g4g-lte-signal-strengths/

    • Uploaded data without issues on Friday. Now with the latest update I am getting "Cluster #1 skipped: invalid file format detected. File exported for inspection." Doing same with all other clusters. Did this on 4 phones in a row.  Seems to work on s24 ultra just fine. On s21 ultra it says "web data upload failed. No data to send" although 8800 records were displayed. Now gives same error as above. I have not sent the data from 3 other phones.  All should have latest update.
    • After several months of testing, an update to SignalCheck Pro is rolling out on Google Play. It may take up to 48 hours to become available for download. Notable changes include: Added option to display site notes for NSA 5G-NR cells. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show NSA 5G-NR Site Notes) will cause the app to make an "educated guess" as to what the most appropriate site note is linked to the connected NSA 5G cell, using the PCI and the device location. If it finds an existing entry that is likely to be relevant, it will display the note along with the distance from where the strongest signal from that cell was logged. While connected to NSA 5G, these notes cannot be edited; a valid NCI is required to add/edit notes and that information is not available on NSA connections.   Added option to log cells with missing/invalid PLMN (such as NSA 5G-NR cells). Users asked for the ability to log data for NSA 5G, so a new option (Preferences > Logger Settings > Log Cells with Missing PLMN) will permit this.   Added option to display LTE info above 5G-NR info. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show LTE Cells Above 5G-NR Cells) shows the same information that is currently displayed, but moves the LTE information above the 5G-NR information. Other changes: Code optimizations and enhancements. Improved Android 15 compatibility. Overhauled Purchases module. Resolved force closes impacting some GSM/LTE connections. Resolved issue with improper 5G-NR PLMN display when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with improper PLMN display with single-digit MNCs. Resolved issue with incorrect 5G-NR bands displayed on some devices due to Android bug. Resolved issue with incorrect number of neighbor cells displayed when some cells were unknown. Resolved issue with missing 5G-NR data when sector display is enabled. Resolved issue with saving 5G-NR site notes when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with settings to log missing GCI/NCI/TAC/PLMN being ignored. Resolved issues with web data export function. Updated internal libraries. Updated provider database. Updated target API to Android 15. I appreciate all of your support, and a big thank you to the members of the Beta Crew that help with testing and feedback!
    • Oct security update is out.
    • Stopped by again today and the antennas are up but it isn't live just yet. If other Sprint conversions are anything to go by it'll likely take about a month for the site to go live.
    • It is an Android bug that was reportedly fixed in August 2023 but definitely has not been. I have implemented numerous workarounds in SCP to correct the NR bands the app displays. The OS ignores the possibility that many NR-ARFCNs are valid across multiple bands.. it reports the lowest NR band that is valid for the current ARFCN. In your example, channel 432530 can be n1, n65, or n66.. so the OS just (lazily) reports n1.   Awesome, thanks! I will add an n65 override also.
