Thanks.  I'm hoping this is the case and I see the magical LTE letters on my phone soon.  I'm still getting LTE at my job in Orange on the corner of La Veta and Main but only when I'm up on the 11th floor.  Once I leave the building, it's back to 3g.

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

Are the customers with Virgin Mobile included in the 4G availability in Orange County? It's under Sprint's network. I've been through the places where Sensorly states there is some 4G coverage but my phone picks it up as 3G. Any information would be helpful. Thanks!

What's going on with the network here in Newport? I was getting NV 3G speeds and for the past two days now I can barely get a decent signal where I usually get full bars at my house. 

 

From 1.48MBps to 0.02MBps? Perhaps LTE will finally find a place to settle here. It's about time:)

I have noticed the same thing. It's normally a great thing cause I have seen LTE come right after

Something I recently came across, not sure if you guys already new about it and I didn't know if I should have started a new thread. There is 600 MHz spectrum going up for auction. Does anyone know how much is going up for sale? Will it a lot better than the 850 MHz sprint will soon deploy or just slightly better? Also, newb question; Sprint is currently rolling lte in 5x5, will they eventually do 10x10 in the 850 MHz and 1900 MHz or only the 2600 MHz?

 

Thanks in advance,

-2016-2017 before anyone can even think of implementing 600 mhz service. 

-Sprints deployment will be 5x5 for SMR 800, 5x5 for PCS 1900 & carrier aggregation later on, and 20mhz for TDD-LTE 2.5ghz w/ carrier aggregation.

How easy would it be for the big two to aggregate if they deployed lte in a similar fashion but for say 15x15 or 20x20? Also, after the 2600mhz is deployed does that mean Sprint will be able to do a 20x20 configuration?

EVO 3D user here that is due for an upgrade.  How is the LTE in orange county so far?  I've been battling with drop calls and super slow 3G network on my EVO 3D.  My guess is that I need to upgrade to a LTE phone, but before I do so; has the LTE service stablized? 

 

I considering switching over to AT&T or Verizon if they're still working on upgrading the towers.

Check out sensorly, it is pretty accurate. As for 3g it will probably be similar. LTE is definitely becoming more filled.

So... Any updates in Orange County?

 

I can tell you work has begun on OG35XC198. New panels are on the ground and the cabinet had been delivered. This tower is no joke 10 feet from my building. It's at Sprints data center in Irvine off Teller Ave. I get great service btw :P. One would with a tower a hop and a skip away. Oh and they have been doing a lot of work at the data center. A year ago they ripped up the road for new under ground cabling and now they are adding more transformers for power and looks to be cooling and possibly a extra  back up generator will be added in the mix. Just what it looks like to me.

So the OC and LA markets will not be able to use the 800mhz due to the US/Mexico agreement?

 

I haven't heard of that. LA and OC markets should have 800 MHz LTE

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By JossMan · Posted

      Your referring to the $25.00 a month Infinite Unlimited plan?  I don't see any other plans on there even cheaper than that on their website.  I was looking at the Motorola 2023 Edge fwiw as well for $10.00 a month.

      T-Mobile to acquire UScellular

      By iansltx · Posted

      A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.

      Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      By iansltx · Posted

      Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.

      Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.
