And not a single mention of the Buffalo market, even though the local guys say we're supposed to have it by October...

 

Workers and equipment are mobilizing now in the Buffalo and Rochester markets.

I do hope so. The local guys did say our speeds down here in Chautauqua County would be better than Buffalo for much of the year...

I just hope the weather breaks here soon, it has been cold for so long, no sign of spring yet, and i know from past experience that work gets completed much slower when its cold, im sure ten fold when ur on a tower 100 to 200 feet in the air. Once the weather warms up around here im sure things will move even faster!

Utah is a later-round market. Certainly it will get NV, along with every other "native" Sprint market (the affiliates are a bit more up in the air), but "when" is not clear yet. There's no official word but pretty much every market should be well underway by end of 2013 and most will be underway sooner, including Utah.

 

On Utah specifically, another member has dug up some info on building permits in Salt Lake County that's available to sponsors at http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/3353-utah-nv-build-permit-map/ So while I can't really say what the member has found in exact terms, I will say that it is clear that Sprint's contractors are already active in the market doing some site work; that doesn't however mean that backhaul's in place or that new antennas are installed yet (it could be cabinets or electrical feed or any one of the other parts of the site upgrade that has to come together).

Does anyone know what market Belleville or Collinsville Illinois (metro stl) would fall under? And what round it's in?

 

Missouri market. It's in the third round and is beginning now.

Rumors (fairly reliable ones) have the NV rollout schedule for Buffalo pegged for the end of April. Hopefully by then we'll get an accurate assessment as to when it is actually going to take place. Most of the things that are being said peg the Buffalo market to be done by August, now there wasn't any real specification if it would be done by August or if it would've been done starting by August :P

Yeah, I figured it was something like that. If the local guys aren't spouting total BS (and all the complainers' observations pan out), they'll start down in the Southern Tier (which is good for me, since I live in Jamestown) and leave the City of Buffalo proper for last. If it's the other way around, then I'll be stuck in 2G land for a loooooooooooooooong time...

I have looked for Metro East sites. So far, nothing yet. If I do see sites in progress I will let everyone know.

Thanks for the info. I'm trying to be patient with this 3G but at speeds of 100kbps or slower at peak times it gets harder and harder.. Lol

So I might be attending college in Moorhead, Minnesota within a few years, and I'm planning on switching to Sprint so I was wondering when the Dakotas Market would start. I found an article mentioning the Dakotas market was next to the Minnesota market, but after that, I can't find anything mentioning the Dakotas? Estimated start time??

Considering that network vision will be pretty close to done by the end of this year will a little work going into 2014, U will have no problems having lte, voice on 800 and lte 800 by the time u goto school up in moorhead,mn. Dakotas are a third round market and will be starting soon, it is a small market. So it won't take long once it starts

Not quite sure where Moorhead, MN is, but if you are within 100Miles of the Canadian border, then don't count on any SMR services until the FCC and Canadian equivalent come to an agreement on interference.

It's right across the river from Fargo, ND. It's about 200 miles from Canada I believe

    • Interesting, I saw this too on my AT&T S22 while roaming on US Cellular. I thought it was an Android bug since CellMapper was doing the same thing (didn't get a screenshot of that one). N66 makes more sense than N1. 
    • Thanks, that was good timing, I did see your report as I was buttoning up this latest update and added an override for that.. did it not work?   Ok, was that on AT&T also? Please send a report if you happen to see it again and safely have the opportunity. You can always do the long-press on the fly and then send a later one with an explanation pointing to the earlier one.. your username is attached to the long-press reports, so it's not an issue.
    • I sent a report in earlier, n66 reporting as n1. There should be two different reports, I couldn't find the button the first time so I just long pressed the connection type to send, then I remembered where it was. I put a note about the issue on the 2nd report. Both reports from me are for the same issue. Also, it might have been on a prior release but earlier this week I also saw n66 reported as n65 on the app. I was driving and wasn't able to send a report in for that one. 
    • One more SCP beta rolling out.. includes more bugfixes and minor improvements. Pending any major issues with this version, it will be released to the public within a few days. Thanks for all the help and feedback!
    • Passed by the former Sprint site at 1184 60th St in Brooklyn last week and noticed T-Mobile took down all of the Sprint equipment but it looked like they installed some new cabinets so conversion is likely in progress.
