userkv8031 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I didn't see anything posted for this area so I thought I would start a topic for the area. Are there any updates for this market? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyroscott Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Sorry, I don't have any updates, but do you really have a Renegade? I loved that phone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S4GRU Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I've heard work recently started in this market. This market has a lot of GMO sites (Ground Mounted RRUs). This work tends to go faster. We probably will start having some In Progress and possibly even accepted sites in the next month or so.

userkv8031 Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 Sorry, I don't have any updates, but do you really have a Renegade? I loved that phone! I do have the Renegade and also really enjoy it. I have broken countless of them over the years. They all have broken at the hinge. If there was a rugged smartphone that could put up with the crap I have put my phone through I would grab one. No 800 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was a rugged smartphone that could put up with the crap I have put my phone through I would grab one. No 800 I searched high and low for a rugged sprint flip phone and finally got one with the renegade. Then I immediately got an office job and went to a smartphone soon after. I heard that there will be a LTE direct connect smartphone in the dura___ line coming soon. Hopefully that will fit the bill for you. I always wished sprint would get the Casio gzone phones, but they just stay with big red. They seem like they are old hardware anyway.

S4GRU Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Wondering if there are any upsates for the Othello Area? Or any news at all? Some GMO sites should start going live in the next month or so in this market. Full build sites should start in the Spring or early Summer.

Guest 503ducati Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 giving that spokane is the 2nd most populated city in washington we should have got it!

No, your market is not even close to 41 percent complete. We map completed and in progress sites, plus we long ago mapped every Sprint site in every market. And the Inland Northwest has no completed LTE sites yet and only 25 completed CDMA1X/EV-DO 1900 sites out of about 150 total sites in the market. http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/517-nv-sites-complete/ http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/652-network-vision-site-map-west-washington-oregonsw-washington-and-inland-northwest-markets/ If you become an S4GRU sponsor, you can view those maps and see the progress taking place in your market. http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/1195-information-about-s4gru-sponsorship-levels-and-how-to-become-a-sponsor/ AJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WiWavelength Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 you get updated information? Yep, at least once per week, but usually several times per week. Our crack staff is hard at work. For a taste, here is what Inland Northwest market completion looks like right now: AJ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicklocklin Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Thats good to know thanks! From what i saw and what was explained to me the sites for network vision were 41% complete however that have not turned the switch on (except moscow) the towers due to the fact the are building from the most outside towers to in and they want to prevent calls from being dropped due to if someone was driving and got switched to another tower it would drop the call because of different hardware on the new towers. Also i guess after they flip on the tower they dont launch LTE till fiber is put into the tower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S4GRU Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 All the sites completed to date in the Inland Northwest market are GMO sites. Full build sites should be starting soon, but have not started yet. http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-340-sprint-deploys-special-ground-mount-option-network-vision-sites-in-some-low-capacity-and-high-engineering-locations/ Robert via Nexus 7 with Tapatalk HD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
userkv8031 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) Sorry, I don't have any updates, but do you really have a Renegade? I loved that phone! Well my Renegade is being retired. The radio is on the fritz cycling between service/no service once a second. Sprint tried to pull information from my phone across the network and was unable to access it so they are swapping it out for a DuraMax. As long as it works I will be happy but I don't expect it to be anything like the Renegade which has been one of the best phones I have had on Sprint. It will be sad to pack it up and ship it back when the new phone gets here. Sorry no news on this area outside of what has been posted already.
