Current Sprint PRLs

Please forgive my basic question here, but does the PRL automatically update itself on an iPhone, or do you have manually update it?

The network takes care of PRL pushes usually, so the iPhone will eventually auto update.

I confirmed tonight that the latest PRL update downgraded Bluegrass Cellular from native to extended:

Below is the link to the post where I announced the past PRL update marked BGC as native Sprint:

How can you tell the roaming partner from iPhone field test? I just got back from Wisconsin, and was curious who I was using up there.

25029 on my galaxy tab S 10.1"and 55029 on my LG G4. What changes made now?

I'm on vacation and won't be about to upload new xxx29 series PRL until Sunday. So unless someone else knows how to use DFS or CDMA Workshop, you'll have to wait until at least then to find out.

Since I'm comparing the 55 series to the 56 series this time, a lot of stuff doesn't line up, probably due to extra EV-DO lines.  I'm going to have to go through line-by-line, I think.

 

EDIT:  Without being able to know what 3G is new versus what's a change from 55 to 56, I've just analyzed the 1X parts.

 

Geography 7:  Added 4305, 93. (Roaming)

 

Geography 12:  Removed 362, 5652, 5274

 

Geography 13:  Added 4307. (Roaming)

 

Quick check says 93 is Verizon, 4305 and 4307 are SI Wireless, 362/5652/5274 are Cellcom.

 

EDIT2:  Quick check of Cellcom's coverage map indicates they are using the Verizon network for nationwide LTE.  Wonder if they terminated their deal with Sprint as a result.

I noticed that a little bit of coverage area was lost in Albemarle County and Greene County in Va from the nTelos area as well.

Looks like Sprint updated their 3G coverage map.

 

Guess work here

 

Dark Red = Sprint 3G

Light Red = Off-network 3G Roaming (uses limited roaming bucket)

Dark Purple == Dark Red

Roaming+ = Off-network "Native" 3G (doesn't use limited roaming bucket)

Light purple Off-network roaming = Off-network 1x (uses limited roaming bucket)

 

What is interesting is it looks like USCC is a mixture of Light Red and Roaming+.

I like the huge random BLOB of medium purple in South Dakota (Roaming+).   Unfortunately, Western Wisconsin is still light purple and not medium purple.  Buy hey, northern Wisconsin is medium purple.

    • A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.
    • Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.
    • Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.
    • Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.    
    • What is the cheapest way to try Dish's wireless network?  Over the past year I've seen them add their equipment to just about every cell site here, I'm assuming just go through Boost's website?  What phones are Dish native?
