Hey everyone, so when I'm on ehrpd, even though my phone says it has a signal I can't get any data to go through. As of currently I'm on ehrpd with a dmb of -93. I've wanted to do speed tests but they fail every time, and only on ehrpd. When I'm connected to evdo I have no issues. Anyone know the reason why this may be happening?

Sounds like a routing issue network-side. Could be an issue with the tower you are connected to, or anything along the route from there to the 4G core. Heck, it could be the 4G core itself, no real way for us to know specifically. Do you have another phone nearby to check whether eHRPD on that is working?

I had this on my S3 a few weeks ago after some upgrades to the towers near where I work. I called Sprint they did a refresh and had me do a PRL and Profile update. I did not have high hopes but afterwards I had no problems. So worth a try.

As of right now I don't have another phone to try out, something I will try when I do though. I know it could be a number of things causing this issue.

I've tried the prl and profile update but haven't noticed a difference. I know the issue will be resolved in time. Was just curious if anyone knew of a possible reason why.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      Unable to confirm if it's really off but I noticed this morning that I'm no longer connecting to Band 41 on my home site. Switching my phone to LTE-only pretty much always put me on Band 41 since it was the least used band on T-Mobile's network. Now I'm only able to connect to Band 2/66. Not complaining because it means speeds are faster on LTE and maybe 150MHz n41 is around the corner.

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
