If you had a handset as old as your Samsung Galaxy Note 2 on VZW, you would lack band 2 and/or band 4.  On AT&T, you would lack carrier aggregation, band 29, and band 30.  On T-Mobile, you would l

Wow, came home today to B25 LTE! I am so happy, lol. Only got 4-5 Mbps down, but who cares right now about since I finally have it. This is the tower right near the 5 freeway and Red Hill in Tustin. J

Today I was at the Zara clothing store inside South Coast Plaza - a known Sprint deadzone for both voice & data - and to my surprise, I got an alert from SignalCheck Pro that I was connected to Sp

Is that the one disguised on the fake building structure South of Jamboree on the East side of the freeway? The one West of the 5 and North of 133 in the field is a T-Mobile site. Assuming you are talking about the one in the field of trees.

 

Sorry just checked this sites tower locations versus what I saw. The tower at Tustin Ranch Rd and the 5 was the tower being worked on. Big blue cherry picker. The tower in the bushes is definitely not sprint. Though it has a couple large containers adjacent to it now.

Does anybody know where I can get a constant and stable 4g lte signal close to Westminster city. I have a suspect that my evo 4g lte has a problem to connected to LTE like many of evo owners?

 

The jelly bean update with sprints bloat app "connection optimizer" really did help the EVO switch radios better. The 4G airplane mode toggle used to be the only way to get phone to switch over. It still seems to be needed at times even after the update but a lot less frequently. First, I'd say do update if you havent already. Second, I'd do the airplane mode on/off sequence before claiming issues. And third, no there isnt really any area just yet with a consistent LTE signal. Though here off of Lakeview and the 91 a couple weeks ago the signal was on for a full week and some days. Its been off for a while now. If you want to play with LTE just do a little drive up to LA. A lot of signal coming from there.

That tower has had NV equipment and RRU's for at least a month now. Maybe two months. I wonder what the hold up is in getting it officially on air and with LTE?

Agreed. Dunno whats going on. In comparison the site next to disneyland was first in OC that showed a sign off on LTE, yet nothing more than 1x speeds.

Yup, I agree with you both, I been waiting for the Disney Tower to get LTE. When I visit the park, my phone is useless.

:tu: Thank you mbaseball3 for the replying post. I think I will take your advice and make a quick trip to LA to test the LTE on my phone before discussing this issue with sprint.

just looked on sensorly and there is a super faint spot of LTE at disneyland.

 

 

Yup, that one has been there for a while now. :(

 

Sadly it's true, no growth. I'm always in that area and would love to see some LTE. When I visit that area everyone I visit is on sprint so improved 3G and LTE would make a lot of people happy. They all switched to sprint because of me and now I'm always hearing about their data speeds. I keep telling them SOON but soon is SO close yet so FAR! =/

      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.
