Sprint LTE Coverage Maps via Sensorly


Recommended Posts

Did we ever figure out what phones cause the gray, and will there ever be a way to get rid of it or toggle it?  I noticed my S4 put a few gray dots (only 1 in any place) on the 2G/3G map in locations I toggled airplane mode to force it to pick up LTE again.

Anyone else being blocked from sensorly.com with a "Forbidden" error?  I cannot get in from a browser, although I can see coverage maps on my GS3 using the Sensorly app.

I had the same problem but if you google sensorly and click on the first link, it will bring you to the site and work fine.

Fascinating.

I know this has been brought up before and is probably one of those thorns in your side, but can we not process Sprint Galaxy Nexus LTE points since it's chipset is just so messed up and reports dark purple where there should only be very very light, almost no coverage color of purple?  I'm so glad that the phone is slowly going away due to its age. 

 

Hey digi, you can buy me a GS3 and help get another GNEX off the airwaves.....lol

I did a car dock passive scan this afternoon. Still has yet to update. Hmmm.

There's no backlog right now so either you're hitting the CDN 24h cache thing (web only) or there's something wrong !

Ok today seems fine. So something must've been wrong with my device yesterday. Thanks again for letting us know! Can't wait to have Samsung multiview in the next release.

Multiview is awesome for LTE serving cell hunting.

Hi digi,

 

I've done most of the mapping within about 10 miles of my house (ZIP 91977), and my GNex maps the full LTE color spectrum from dark purple to very light purple. The color matches the coverage I get very well. I'm running the GA02 radios with CM10.1 and Fancy Kernel, if it makes a difference.

 

If it's helpful, I can send you whatever numbers you need from Sensorly or Signal Check Pro.

 

 

Have a great evening!

John

One of the reasons why I finally rooted and flashed your ROM... Absolutely love this feature!

The thing is the Gnex falls on its face then starts drawing dark purple where it should be light purple.

 

Hmm, I don't have that experience. The terrain around my part of San Diego is very hilly, and Sensorly's colors track pretty close with Signal Check's numbers, the tower locations and the terrain. I wonder if it's a matter of different hardware versions or radio software?

 

Have a great day,

John

Take a look at our "Details" screen, you'll get the signal strength coming from the phone there too

Is it still the case now ?

Consider yourself lucky...  other markets still have GNex scars on the map.

It seems to be working right today.

Can you send us an email to contact@sen...ly.com and we'll work on this. We want to start a new beta cycle at the end of the month and now is the time to work on this !

 

FYI, I just sent you another email with an update on the Photon Q issue.  Thanks in advance!

Well what do you know, you are right across the lake/resovoir/puddle from me, and also named John.  The universe is clearly messing with me today

Just remember, all the cool guys are named John   ;)

In my noob terms, does the coverage map look slim and only on major roads because the towers are not on full blast yet?? I find it very odd the coverage looks like thin pencil lines rather than a spread out blanket look!!

Sensorly is crowd sourced data. It is real world signal measurements from users of the Sensorly app. Those thin pencil lines are the routes of Sensorly users in that area.

    • After several months of testing, an update to SignalCheck Pro is rolling out on Google Play. It may take up to 48 hours to become available for download. Notable changes include: Added option to display site notes for NSA 5G-NR cells. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show NSA 5G-NR Site Notes) will cause the app to make an "educated guess" as to what the most appropriate site note is linked to the connected NSA 5G cell, using the PCI and the device location. If it finds an existing entry that is likely to be relevant, it will display the note along with the distance from where the strongest signal from that cell was logged. While connected to NSA 5G, these notes cannot be edited; a valid NCI is required to add/edit notes and that information is not available on NSA connections.   Added option to log cells with missing/invalid PLMN (such as NSA 5G-NR cells). Users asked for the ability to log data for NSA 5G, so a new option (Preferences > Logger Settings > Log Cells with Missing PLMN) will permit this.   Added option to display LTE info above 5G-NR info. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show LTE Cells Above 5G-NR Cells) shows the same information that is currently displayed, but moves the LTE information above the 5G-NR information. Other changes: Code optimizations and enhancements. Improved Android 15 compatibility. Overhauled Purchases module. Resolved force closes impacting some GSM/LTE connections. Resolved issue with improper 5G-NR PLMN display when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with improper PLMN display with single-digit MNCs. Resolved issue with incorrect 5G-NR bands displayed on some devices due to Android bug. Resolved issue with incorrect number of neighbor cells displayed when some cells were unknown. Resolved issue with missing 5G-NR data when sector display is enabled. Resolved issue with saving 5G-NR site notes when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with settings to log missing GCI/NCI/TAC/PLMN being ignored. Resolved issues with web data export function. Updated internal libraries. Updated provider database. Updated target API to Android 15. I appreciate all of your support, and a big thank you to the members of the Beta Crew that help with testing and feedback!
    • Oct security update is out.
    • Stopped by again today and the antennas are up but it isn't live just yet. If other Sprint conversions are anything to go by it'll likely take about a month for the site to go live.
    • It is an Android bug that was reportedly fixed in August 2023 but definitely has not been. I have implemented numerous workarounds in SCP to correct the NR bands the app displays. The OS ignores the possibility that many NR-ARFCNs are valid across multiple bands.. it reports the lowest NR band that is valid for the current ARFCN. In your example, channel 432530 can be n1, n65, or n66.. so the OS just (lazily) reports n1.   Awesome, thanks! I will add an n65 override also.
    • Yeah both of those instances were on my AT&T s22 ultra. Seems ro be working as intended today in latest release.
