[shannonbrian]

[shannonbrian]

[shannonbrian]

Knock knock whos there lte , lte who ? Haaaaaa 21 percent . I got find backhaul provider got be comcast cecil county . They just got hd tv 2 years ago and internet is only 4 to 12 on download speed .

[shannonbrian]

Cecil county lost cause on back haul.

I don't intend to be rude at all, but could you spend a little more time on your posts? I'm very thankful you've been going around scouting things out in Delaware - but a lot of the time I have no idea what you're saying 

[shannonbrian]

Dont read my post no big deal me ..

[shannonbrian]

I just spouting off at the mouth nothing say on slow progress here. Been over month for lte update.

[shannonbrian]

Connected to band 41 in de off 95 . On wifes galaxys 5.

[shannonbrian]

Speed test failed .50megs lol. Dont know any info what tower but will hunt it down soon.

Maybe just picking up towers by Newark or the hospital? Doesn't seem like any new towers up...

it was band 41 sprint spark not 1900mhz.band 25

[Jimgman]

Thank you! I looked it up, and see that's the 2.5 ghz. Not sure how to tell since I have iPhone 5s, but do you know if any de towers have 800 MHz?

[shannonbrian]

Just voice 800mhz . Iphone 5s does not have band 41 only 1900 and 800lte. 800 probably end year coming de.

I it was band 41 sprint spark not 1900mhz.band 25

 

My guess is it was from the tower near Canby park.

[Jimgman]

yea, iphone does not support the 2500mhz, but looking forward to the 800mhz for better building penetration. my signals are virtually unusable at both my apt in pike creek, and my job at lowes in newark. getting results like .01 download, lol. thank god for wifi at home... wish iphone had app to see signal info like android, so i'd know what bands im on

[shannonbrian]

Towers too far apart and lot hills pikes creek causing low signal too. Go on senorly app show all place i map in upper de

[Jimgman]

Been checking sensorly regularly, and thanks for the mapping since my iphone can't map routes. The tower up here gives lte, but I'm on the far side of the building, and it's brick. Thinking 800mhz would do the trick, or if they turn on that dang tower on kirkwood, lol, since that must be where my .01 3G is coming from. If I lean out on my balcony, I can pick up lte, lol

[shannonbrian]

I get same thing my place tower in elkton line and no lte but one mile away is .

[shannonbrian]

Got be reason why lte stop progressing. Please take foot off the brake.lol

[Jimgman]

Yea, I'm worried something has gone wrong. Hoping they working on backhaul somewhere, and haven't just ditched us

There's an app if you're jailbroken that is called "signal 2." It isn't a fraction as excellent as Signal Check Pro, but it's something. Otherwise, just dial *3001#12345#* while on LTE, then click serving cell info. That will give you the connected LTE band, up/down frequency, and cell identity. To get your cell identity to look like it does in signal check, including your gci, just use a decimal to hex converter (google it).

[Jimgman]

Thanks! I'm not jail broken, but I just copied that #, and I'll see how that works…appreciate it. The lack of lte rollout is concerning

Just copy and paste it for quick glancing, or, once your dial it, and don't directly dial any other numbers, you can just hit the green send button and it pops up.

Any idea what is going on? I believe sprint told me we should have had 4g in around seaford, DE by december of 2013, I came to this site and saw something about jan or feb of 2014, and its now may, going on june of 2014.. what's going on? having had 4g phones for years now and never being able to use it is aggravating, any have an idea when we should have it? I would think 6 months past the supposed date should have us close lol. I appreciate any response.

[shannonbrian]

I really think delware is low on pole. They stop stop upgrades 6 weeks ago. No new lte in upper delawRe and zero upgrade in lower de . Hope they start lte all of delaware like they did south jersey. Mostly likely you be last to get lte in lower de.
