Guys!!! First LTE signals here in Hockessin. Just noticed it at my house.

 

Hopefully the tower is in Delaware. Probably coming across the border from PA though, there are several towers on the PA side that are live. Either way, its good news.

I hope it's Delaware because there are 2 towers near me in Hockessin and they are supposedly both .5 miles away from me. But the LTE kept coming on and off but the speeds were still amazing. Getting over 14 MP. And I just checked sensorly and it shows no lte around my way. Closest PA LTE is Kennett Square.

We should be able to know in the morning. I typically get acceptance reports overnight.

Funny thing, I woke up this morning with the Sprint Zone News alert saying they are building a new network (even though the news link is about a week old).

 

Not that Hockessin, is really close to me.

Pretty sure that alert went out to everyone. I got the same thing here.

I don't doubt it, but I did find the coincidence with Platinum's posting amusing.  :lol:

Yeah keep me posted. I just checked my dad's note II...it says 4G. So I'm guessing it's being tested. I've been waiti

Just got off the phone with the Sprint rep, the tower on Limestone Road near my house (.5 Miles) is getting worked on for Network Vision so I should be getting better and better LTE signal this month. He said the towers near the PA- DE border will also be done the same time as the one on Limestone Road and work it's way down south Delaware. Not to brag but I'm glad it started at my location. I guess the Rep I spoke with 2 months ago was telling the truth when she said, "give it about 2 months before you start seeing LTE signals in your area!"

How can I prove it ?

I believe you and your screen shots earlier are enough proof. Since you have an iPhone you can't map the coverage with Sensorly. It is just one of those quotes on this site.

Not trying to burst anyone's bubble, and I could be wrong, but there is a new LTE-accepted site just on the other side of the border in PA. I hope I'm wrong, but until I see something concrete to the contrary I think this is a PA site.

That is/was my initial thought. It is still a good sign, but until it shows in the acceptance reports I can hope. Some good mapping and engineering screens might give an answer. If I lived in northern DE I would probably spend a couple of hours doing that.

 

That said, a site has to be broadcasting 4G sometime in Delaware, probably sooner rather than later.

    • After several months of testing, an update to SignalCheck Pro is rolling out on Google Play. It may take up to 48 hours to become available for download. Notable changes include: Added option to display site notes for NSA 5G-NR cells. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show NSA 5G-NR Site Notes) will cause the app to make an "educated guess" as to what the most appropriate site note is linked to the connected NSA 5G cell, using the PCI and the device location. If it finds an existing entry that is likely to be relevant, it will display the note along with the distance from where the strongest signal from that cell was logged. While connected to NSA 5G, these notes cannot be edited; a valid NCI is required to add/edit notes and that information is not available on NSA connections.   Added option to log cells with missing/invalid PLMN (such as NSA 5G-NR cells). Users asked for the ability to log data for NSA 5G, so a new option (Preferences > Logger Settings > Log Cells with Missing PLMN) will permit this.   Added option to display LTE info above 5G-NR info. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show LTE Cells Above 5G-NR Cells) shows the same information that is currently displayed, but moves the LTE information above the 5G-NR information. Other changes: Code optimizations and enhancements. Improved Android 15 compatibility. Overhauled Purchases module. Resolved force closes impacting some GSM/LTE connections. Resolved issue with improper 5G-NR PLMN display when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with improper PLMN display with single-digit MNCs. Resolved issue with incorrect 5G-NR bands displayed on some devices due to Android bug. Resolved issue with incorrect number of neighbor cells displayed when some cells were unknown. Resolved issue with missing 5G-NR data when sector display is enabled. Resolved issue with saving 5G-NR site notes when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with settings to log missing GCI/NCI/TAC/PLMN being ignored. Resolved issues with web data export function. Updated internal libraries. Updated provider database. Updated target API to Android 15. I appreciate all of your support, and a big thank you to the members of the Beta Crew that help with testing and feedback!
    • Oct security update is out.
    • Stopped by again today and the antennas are up but it isn't live just yet. If other Sprint conversions are anything to go by it'll likely take about a month for the site to go live.
    • It is an Android bug that was reportedly fixed in August 2023 but definitely has not been. I have implemented numerous workarounds in SCP to correct the NR bands the app displays. The OS ignores the possibility that many NR-ARFCNs are valid across multiple bands.. it reports the lowest NR band that is valid for the current ARFCN. In your example, channel 432530 can be n1, n65, or n66.. so the OS just (lazily) reports n1.   Awesome, thanks! I will add an n65 override also.
    • Yeah both of those instances were on my AT&T s22 ultra. Seems ro be working as intended today in latest release.
