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

City of Orange where I live is also very slow. We have 16 cell sites in the city and not a single one has LTE yet. Only two out of the 16 have been NV upgraded. No signs of any construction on the other 14 either.

I'm not 100% positive but I'm pretty sure I get 4G at my work off of Katella and Glassell!

It could be coming from the LTE site on the other side of the 57 in Anaheim or it could be that the site near Chapman/Glassell in Orange is now broadcasting intermittent LTE. But I have yet to see any in Orange.

How are your 3g speeds by those towers?

Outside of the house, they are good. Most of the time though i am connected to the airave so i haven't been able to really test it. i want to turn the airave off to see the true signal.

Just a hint of 4g LTE in Aliso Viejo off Wood Canyon and Grand. What a nice way to start the day. My 3g service is pretty weak in my house and it seems to be the same with 4g but it's on then off as soon as I go downstairs. I turned on the wifes iPhone just to see if it would show on on her phone and bam LTE comes on for a sec then switches back to 3g.

LTE appears to be back up in Eastern Brea. It was up and down for a week but it looks like it might be on for good now (fingers crossed). It's interesting because it causes my phone to flip between the 3G upgraded site in Yorba Linda (strong signal, but horrible static - bandwidth issues?) and the Brea LTE site (weak signal, but no voice quality issues).

I've waited over a good month now when LTE first appeared about 2 miles from my house and it still has not made it there. I'm about ready to file a BBB report to get out of my contract.

 

I wish I lived on the ocean though.

Do you not have WiFi at your house or something?

LTE is coming to the entire coverage area. So, LTE will cover your house sooner or later. But that should be the least of your concerns, as you should already have broadband Internet access with Wi-Fi at home. If not, then you are doing something wrong.

 

As for a BBB complaint, that is just silly. You would have to show that your Sprint contract somehow specified that you would have LTE at your house within a certain time period.

New to the site, but not to Sprint. Worked for them for the last 4 yrs to start my own business, we are opening a new prepaid retailer by Main St and McFadden in Santa Ana and noticed that on my birthday yesterday we received Lte service in our store.

 

It's been super fast lately, at 26 down and 6 up, these speeds are sweet.

It was off for a few weeks. I don't know if it was on earlier this week, I just happened to notice it today. It wasn't on last week for sure.

      https://www.lightreading.com/6g/5g-advanced-arrives-with-3gpp-s-release-18 Wonder how long until T-Mobile moves on this? My guess is some by the Galaxy S25 in January or February.

      Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

      Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.

      Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.
