You missed a city of around 1 million - Louisville, Kentucky. A pretty big miss! Lol ; o )

Ummm..... no. No it hasn't. It is not on the coverage map, so it is not on my map

 

 

Yes, there is LTE coverage, but it is not enough to launch yet.

Rickie did those states. Blame him

[digiblur]

You can take Eunice, LA off the list.  That city has one site (southeast of the city) that is still NV 3G only.  It's the last site before roaming when traveling from south to north and from east to west through that city.  The cover map shows fringe LTE coverage near the city from the two adjacent sites in Church Point and Lawtell but that's due to the error/exaggeration in Sprint's LTE layer.

 

EDIT: Then for some reason they didn't put Opelousas on their map when in fact that site (only one in the city) has had LTE since 9/11/2013.  Maybe a CSFB thing since it's just 4G only and not 3G/4G.

Dang. I didn't zoom in enough.

[themuffinman]

[clbowens]

Thanks guys, don't have the best things to work with yet in my new place...

It's been a month... right on schedule.

[Moquah]

They put up a few LTE towers in St.Thomas. Two I know for sure. Still 3g some parts of island. My house north side for one.

Sorry, Oct 29th (http://newsroom.sprint.com/news-releases/sprint-expands-lte-coverage-map-and-turns-on-more-4g-lte-markets.htm)  So a month and a half, if you want to get technical.

A month, a month and a half, it's all the same thing

[clbowens]

Exactly.

[JonnygATL]

Are we really stressing over an "official" announcement differing by 15 (ish) days.  I mean, really?  What..do you think deployment stopped during that time and just suddenly was all completed overnight for the announcement?  LOL....ok..sure.

Nope

[JonnygATL]

Nope

Good, then.  Because we all know from the wealth of knowledge available here at s4gru where all the latest accepted towers are located, months before the general public.  With that in mind the "launches," regardless of the timing of PR newsblasts,  are moot.

There are 3 towers that have LTE on st thomas and st croix as of right now.  Not sure what's the status on the remaining 5 towers on St. thomas, the remaining 2 on st croix and the 1 on st john.  But I have seen work being done on some of the other towers that doesn't have lte so hopefully the remaining towers will come online soon.

[mpgrimm2]

Hi, I have been digging around the site off and on over the last few weeks since seeing it mentioned in Digiblur's XDA PRL thread hoping to find mention of 4g LTE rollout for Roanoke, VA 24012. Anyone have any info or able to direct me to an appropriate thread to monitor.

Thanks in advance.
