I feel like in this instance that the "Non-Corporate Sprint Store" Is screwing themselves if they're telling people the closest tower is 35 minutes away.... :blink:

Yeah a bit, I had to go to a corporate store to swap to sprint anyways. Its alright though I've been passing out s4gru as the place to get info to everyone I meet/know who has or is wanting to possibly get Sprint. I even got a couple to go buy 4 n5's from the play store instead of Galaxy s4's that time I was In there. They needed the RF performance :P(were in a rural area so its a godsend in a lot of places).

If you remove the GMO sites, Sprint is pretty far along and certainly can be complete with Band 25 build out on Non GMO sites this year.  When you consider how long it took Tmo to do its backhaul upgr

Given Sprint's LTE maps knack for over statement of coverage, it will look more like this on Sprint maps:     Robert

I now have all four carriers. Sprint, Tmo, Verizon and AT&T. I can tell you that none of them are very good everywhere. Every one of them has places on their network that is pathetic. It's nice to

Actually no, we switched right after the new year(got a phone to test signal on the 31st and officially swapped on the 2nd). So we just missed out on the whole framily push. Kinda sad because it'd save us some money (we have two people with unlimited plans and one who has no data at all).

Or Even better yet...taking it out to fully support S4GRU! :tu:

 

Yes, I wouldn't reject a windfall payout from Sprint execs.  But they haven't given us a dime, unless it was incognito and not exceeded the cost of a Premier Sponsorship.  We have never to date received any single donation larger than $100, ever.

Who knows...with out a link or official release, all we can do is speculate... :wacko:

 

In my mind, when execs start selling stocks en masse, it's because there is a big shake up planned/foreseen or the stock is perceived to be at a high with no prospects to go higher in the near future.  But I am no market guru.

If they need to get the info (as an Executive) from here, then there is really a problem...

Both are possibilities. I would lean toward the latter. I certainly don't see the value of Sprint's stock rising in the near term.

Also, it depends on the amount they are divesting. Most executives recieve stock grants as part of their compensation, and thus can accumulate quite a pile of company stock if they don't periodically sell some of it to balance out their portfolio. I would only be concerned if they are divesting a significant share of their holdings (over 10%). To me that would mean they expect the stock won't be seeing any upside in the near future. If it's only a small percentage, then it's probably routine rebalancing.

I see this point...but to have 7 all do it at once as reported...thats something to turn heads about...IMHO

I was going to check and see myself, but the reports aren't up on Yahoo Finance yet.

I've seen this with other companies - the stock has vested and now they are free to sell. I don't think this is bad news, just an opportunity to sell at today's prices and maybe diversify their investments with stocks from other sectors.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Yes! That does keep it from wandering off Dish and most importantly, reconnecting immediately (at least where there is n70). Thanks!

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By Trip · Posted

      I have my Dish phone locked to NR-only.  That keeps it on Dish and only occasionally will it see T-Mobile NR SA for brief periods before going to no service. I also don't have mine band locked beyond that, except that I have some of the unused bands turned off just to try to reduce scan time.  Fortunately, my Dish phone is the one with the MediaTek chipset, so it has NR neighbor cells, and I can usually see n71, n70, n66, and sometimes n29 (market-dependent) through those regardless of which band it's connected to as primary. - Trip

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By dkyeager · Posted

      Excuse my rookie comments here, but after enabling *#73#, it seems that the rainbow sim V2? requires n70 (I turned it off along with n71 - was hoping to track n66) to be available else it switches to T-Mobile.  So this confirms my suspicion that you need to be close to a site to get on Dish.  Have no idea why they don't just use plmn. To test, I put it into a s21 ultra, rebooted twice, came up on T-Mobile (no n70 on s21).  Tried to manually register on 313340, but it did not connect (tried twice). I am on factory unlocked firmware but used a s22 hack to get *#73# working.  Tried what you were suggesting with a T-Mobile sim partially installed, but that was very unstable with Dish ( I think they had figured that one out).  [edit: and now I see Boost sent me a successful device swap notice which says I can now begin to use my new device.  Sigh.  Will try again later and wait for this message - too impatient.]

      Hopefully this indicates T-Mobile hasn't completely abandoned mmwave and/or small cells? But then again this is the loop, so take that as you will. Hopefully now that most macro activity is done (besides rural colo/builds), they will start working on small cells.
