Was having strange gps issues in Waikiki tonight, network data placed me on Kauai and my wife on the big island, wonder if they messed up on a tower lol

 

Used to happen to me all the time at Moanalua Shopping Center. GPS would show me in Lahaina, Maui.

don't think Softbank could be strapped for cash when they want to buy DreamWorks studios

And own a chunk of Alibaba. (I think they're buying DreamWorks so they can repair Sprint's branding. They'll rename the company Shrek.)

Anyone know if any 4G LTE upgrades are happening on Maui? Seems to be only Oahu and the Big Island are having signs of LTE soon

Sensorly shows some purple goodness from one active tower in Kaanapali.

It won't be long before HI market is completed.  We have word crews from San Diego are out there in HI finishing up NV 1.0.

 

Sadly they are probably going to be here for a while. Looking at the permit map Maui only has one tower on the west side done or near done. I couldn't find any permits myself for any of the others and the lead time on a build permit like this is ~12-14 months. Some other islands are all but done or just waiting on backhaul. I'm not sure whats going on with Maui, their permitting system has been abused before so some things take longer and they are still understaffed from the 2008 bolivian marching powder induced recession. Fingers crossed the permitting system is just broken again and theres loads of work been done that we don't know about!

Not sure what the status of CSFB/eCSFB here in the rollout.  But my wife got an iPhone 6 on Sunday, and is updated to 8.0.2.  But when the Phone is on LTE, she often cannot receive calls.  I can see it sometimes gets kicked to 1x (from LTE) when I call her, sometimes it rings, but sometimes it still miss the call (not ringing) even on 1x.

 

Since receiving call is very important on a PHONE, I turned off LTE for now.   Also, 8.0.2 doesn't seem to have the Personal Hotspot option in Cellular Data menu in the Settings app anymore?

Unfortunately, Maui only has lte in the Napili area.  Worked pretty good for me when I was there the other day.  Too bad I'm hardly in the area.  The guy at the Sprint store said Haiku would be the next one lit.  Didn't say when.  But damn, Haiku of all places.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and could potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.  — — — — — The old permit expired for this site without any work being done but a new permit was just approved a few days ago for a T-Mobile site at this address. Description mentions 3 antennas with 2 RRUs per sector. My guess is they're doing something similar to what they did at 360 Furman St in Brooklyn where they broadcast Band 2/66 and n25/41 from one antenna. It's a bit of a downgrade considering the site it's replacing was a full build with Ericsson 6449s.

      Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
