S4GRU Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 February 2015 sounds pretty realistic for LTE launch. But the coverage will grow slowly between now and then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
808Bill Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 February 2015 sounds pretty realistic for LTE launch. But the coverage will grow slowly between now and then. Well, the towers closest to home, work, and my mother-in-law are all up and running LTE, so they can take their time with the rest. I'm happy. ????

Nacron Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 LTE from the Halawa tower stretched all the way to the pearl city viaduct. Got 22mbps by the h1 h201 merge Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwesomeCab Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Phone had 1% battery so I couldn't map with Sensorly, but I had LTE at the Salt Lake Safeway, all the way to Nimitz, then got on the Airport Tower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbspot Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I took a look at the building permits on Oahu, and most of them are now "Inspection(s) in Progress". Two months ago, it was mostly "Permit approved to issue" or "Plans review in progress". Looks like the contractors are mostly done with NV 1.0 ... Hopefully the back haul will pop up. I have a map in the sponsor's section. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamaboko Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I got what seems to be Lte spark on my HTC one max today ( I've never seen the icon kit up on my phone before. But it was LTE WITH THE SPARK EMBLEM NEXT TO IT.) I was in alewa heights . Didn't get a chance to speed test because it switched back to 3g before I got the app to run 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a logging mechanism so you can keep track of all sites you encounter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nacron Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 (edited) Soooo...LTE in Waipahu this morning.

burnout8488 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Now that Hawaii has LTE, the local members have good reason to make a nominal donation to S4GRU for access to maps 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zast808 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I live right by ice palace going towards the H1-H201 and this morning LTE flicked on for a second. Then, my way back home getting off at the Halawa exit I got a 13mb down LTE connection. I did a speed test but, unfortunately, I do not know how to map on Sensorly. Glad to see an LTE connection. I have also noticed 3G speeds have improved as well in the Halawa, Kaka'ako, and Ala Moana areas. Can't wait to see Spark as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwesomeCab Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I've been mapping as I drive my taxi. I've been getting LTE signals consistently in Kaneohe and right around my house in Alewa. Last night, I also got a signal on H-1 by Punchbowl. that totally surprised me. I have no idea what tower that would be. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way you can tell which tower you are connected to. Post screenshots of signal check pro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk Yeah, sadly the only one on the west side unless the rumors about 505 were true (no permits on file ). Glad to see some progress!

If you're on a triband device, turn off band 26 & 41. Until they get ecsfb working with those bands, it'll keep kicking you to 3g. Seems to work for me Edited September 17, 2014 by GrappleFu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
