Sprint LTE Coverage Maps via Sensorly


Recommended Posts

No offense, but it is hard to decipher what you guys are trying to say. Not trying to call anyone out.. we all make typos, especially when using a phone. Just try to take a moment to proofread your post before you hit submit. If you are trying to raise an issue or ask a question, there are many of us who would love to help you out!

 

Just my personal two cents..

Sry ! Me & Girlfriend took A friend to NJ,this passed sunday since there's no 4G LTE near me. So I thought that maps out are road trip using sensorly as we go down the roads. My girlfriend thought i was having an organism everything that signal check chimed that 4g was available.

My said girlfriend thought i was better sex with my phone, then with her while driving down the road. :rolleyes:

I'm pretty sure posting a pic of this one would be violating some rules. Hmm.

Not sure if you guys are seeing this but here's what I sent in yesterday to Sensorly support:

 

"So I looked at the maps on the new Sensorly app version today. I usually look on the Web since the maps look better there. I noticed the areas I mapped almost a week ago are not showing up on the Web app but they show on the website. I tried even turning off the map freshness setting but it still doesn't show up."

Yeah if I use the old app right now all my mapping shows up. Not so much on the new app. I keep the old app on my tablet and the new one on my phone. Maps def look different here in sf.

Looking again now. Some mapping I did last week shows up on old app. But not new app.

But some tracks that others have done more recently (2 days ago) are showing up in both old and new app. Strange my much older tracks are not showing up in new app.

Sensorly is back to using Google Maps again with the newest update. It actually shows my location accurately again and doesn't slow down or freeze when I try scrolling the map.

Maybe I'll finally update it on my phone...

guess I haven't gotten the update yet as the mapping hasn't changed back to Google Maps. Still got that crappy looking, slow loading map

One thing I have noticed is Sensorly incorrectly reports roaming coverage as Sprint coverage. Not sure if this is done by design or possible limitation at the time.

Went to an area that I know is roaming and wanted to map where Sprint stopped, I left it on accidentally. And it mapped the roaming coverage. DOH! It looks like Sprint has coverage there now.

Now that I look at things with all the times I am roaming in places, really looking at the Sprint CDMA map means nothing about Sprint's service coverage area since it includes all the other CDMA services as well.

-- "Sensorly or it didn't happen!"

 

 

It's intentional : it shows where you phone will work. That's what most people are interested in.

 

 

Unfortunately, for me, that is not what I am interested in. I am using BoostMobile and am using the maps to see only Sprint coverage, as I do not get roaming.

    • 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?
