I had a Sprint product development employee reach out to me this morning after reading this thread. His message says:   Robert via Samsung Note 8.0 using Tapatalk Pro

I thought I was just going crazy. I definitely noticed a big improvement as well.

Anyone using hangouts with their Google voice number/sprint integration? Is it possible to send mms using gv number?

I am having issues with my LTE and I'm in a Samsung market.

 

Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

 

Same.  I'm in the MN market, and I have yet to see LTE on my N5.  I haven't gone to a known LTE area and forced it, but I was through a few earlier today, including stopping at a Sprint store, walking in, and running a speed test on a Moto X to make sure the reported LTE was working (it was, and my N5 still stayed locked in to 3G).  I can't try now, as I don't typically have LTE here.

 

For reference, I've got a 32GB Black that seemed to activate fine, 3G and voice work, but LTE just doesn't seem to connect.

Yes it works! Not only that, but because of the tight integration of GV on sprint, we are the only ones able to do this.

It works with the hangouts app through your sprint integrated gvoice number.

Which integration option are you using (1 or 2)?

 

Does your MMS actually shoot up on the recipient's phone as coming from your gv number?

I'm kind of leaning towards my voice connection priority is messed up. This is a bit over my head. How is that determined? I tried updating my profile, but it still did the same as above.

As said before the Nexus 5 DOES NOT support SVDO / SVLTE and you will not get data while on a phone call.

was there a case on your one? I know for my s4 the signal would drop when I had a case on it, noticeable enough for me to risk not using a case

 

yeppers, apparently a sammy thing, happened when I had a case on my GS2 and 3 ! My callers would say I was muffled and very choppy, take case off and voila, perfect connection. Was a bummer as they were very nice cases too.....$$ *flush

I'm not trying to browse the internet, I am well aware after being told yesterday this. I'm concerned that my voice quality is because I'm constantly connecting to 1x not 800. Am I missing something? My voice quality does not suffer when I make a phone call from 3G, only when I'm going LTE to Voice.....

If I were you I'd reset my phone back to complete stock using this tool:

Not sure if it is 1 or 2 but it is full integration. I only have 1 number, my sprint number is my google voice number.

 

I no longer use the google voice app, hangouts for SMS & MMS and have the voicemail integrated into the stock dialer.

 

I still use the gvoice app to text from my tablets/computer though and no MMS there obviously.

What did you have first, a sprint number or a Google voice number?

Sprint. I was in the Google Voice pilot program for Sprint integration though, I've had it since the beginning.

I had a GV number and a Sprint number, end I think when you combine them, with that option mms still comes from my Sprint number, which sucks. I didn't know if the hangouts integration would fix that.. guess I could reintegrate and try..

Rocky start to the chat but my 32GB black is live on LTE without doing any tinkering on the engineering screens. I don't have signalcheck pro installed but the settings screens have me at -100dBm 37asu just outside of Washington DC. Marginally better than the signal on my Viper. I'll be roaming around your nations capital tomorrow and will report back with how it behaves.

You weren't having any LTE troubles to start with though, were you?  Otherwise, any idea what they did to fix them (if you were having issues).

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      You could also just sign up for Project Genesis directly, $400 for the moto edge+ 2023 and $25/month for service.

      Your referring to the $25.00 a month Infinite Unlimited plan?  I don't see any other plans on there even cheaper than that on their website.  I was looking at the Motorola 2023 Edge fwiw as well for $10.00 a month.

      T-Mobile to acquire UScellular

      By iansltx · Posted

      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.

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      By iansltx · Posted

      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.
