Searching S4GRU Forums

I've been trying to find a couple of posts for finding my MSL, etc that I know I've seen in several places on the site. However, whenever I try to do any sort of search through the forums on the S4GRU website (haven't tried through tapatalk) I get no results.

 

Even went with searching for generic terms like msl or prl just to see if any search would work and still get no results returned.

 

Has anyone else seen the same issues or have any suggestions for searching the forums? I know I've searched in the past and gotten results, maybe something's going on with IPBoard?

 

Thanks.

Get a app called get my msl from the playstore and install it. After installing go to phone dialer. Type ##3282# and select edit enter 222222 which is wrong. Exit out of phone dialer. Start get my msl and it should show you what you're msl is.

Thanks. I tried that app, but it wasn't working on my GS3. Kept getting "ERROR: Could not get property ril.MSL". Even tried the command line methods to get using "getprop ril.MSL" but that returns nothing. Did just getprop and it showed a bunch of properties but ril.MSL was not among them.

if you have (or can borrow) an old/unused sprint phone, you can swap phones via the sprint web and sprint will email you the MSL (for both phones).

Thanks dedub. That's what I was trying to search for in the first place. I thought it was in the prl thread...knew I had seen it somewhere in the last couple of days.

 

Which lead to this thread, why doesn't search seem to work in the forums?

The search function never works for me either. It always returns a bunch of irrelevant threads. I have to search for an ultra-specific keyword that I know ONLY appears in that thread. Makes it harder to find information especially 60+ page threads.

From what I can tell, the SEARCH function will not work with only 3 characters.

Did follow my exact instructions. Because it does work on th GS3.

 

Tried it on my Note II, just for kicks, and it worked like a charm. Thanks! :tu:

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
