Where are you at in Union? I doubt if B41 is out that way. There is however a B25 tower active in Union.

 

I wasnt referring to b41, I meant b25 (I should've clarified). Technically I don't live in Union, I just have a union address. I live right off of 44 (less than 1/4th of a mile away) inbetween the highway 50 exit and the next down headed towards st clair. I can't even pull b25 LTE anywhere along 44 until I get into st clair or hit pacific, even in mapped areas on sensorly. .I do get coverage inside all the towns out here including 17 Mbs down in Washington and 32mb down in pacific.

flashed .15, it did not seem to want to connect at work (270/olive) I had to go east down olive near chipotle to get away from the b25 tower at drury.

 

b41 came up, pulled a 46/11 mbs, 67 ping.

 

b41 still holding at work now too with -106rsrp (vs -80ish on the b25 tower across the way).

Going to have to give this a try. Be sure to post if you see any negative effects from this baseband.

OK guys be careful with this radio. It doesn't seem to disconnect from sites that aren't ecsfb ready. You could have LTE but unable to fall back for a call

That is one bad side effect unfortunately. But this should be good for finding sites. I wonder about b26 now with .15

.15 messed with my band priorities and made band 26 priority 0, band 41 priority 1 and bank 25 priority 3...what happened to two!

mine always say priority 1 or 0. But all are set to 1

I will test this out tonight in Ericsson land at a problem site that has been without e/CSFB for like 6 months.

I switched over from my one max to test the radio on my Nexus 5 and its able to pick up a tower that I've been having issues with in my surrounding area since they've doing work on that neither the one max nor the .17 radio could pick up before I'm about to head out to the band 41 tower and test if I can actually connect to that one as well! the radio sensitivity is even better on this one than .17.

You are using .17 or .15?

downgraded from.17 to .15

someone else said they were connecting to sites with ecsfb issues. But let me know if it connects to the b41 automatically or after an airplane toggle.

Is there a way to use a tmobile SIM card while still having the phone active on Sprint? 

 

Obviously not using both networks at the same time, either on Sprint, or T-mobile.

yes you can. Just have to select the network to Tmobile

    • I think the push for them is adding US Mobile as a MVNO with a priority data plan.  Ultimately, making people more aware of priority would allow them (and other carriers) to differentiate themselves from MVNOs like Consumer Cellular that advertise the same coverage. n77 has dramatically reduced the need for priority service at Verizon where the mere functioning of your phone was in jeopardy a couple of years ago if you had a low priority plan like Red Pocket. Only have heard of problems with T-Mobile in parts of Los Angeles. AT&T fell in between. All had issues at large concerts and festivals, or sporting events if your carrier has no on-site rights. Edit: Dishes native 5g network has different issues: not enough sites, limited bandwidth. Higher priority would help a few. Truth is they can push phones to AT&T or T-Mobile.
    • Tracfone AT&T sims went from QCI 8 to 9 as well a couple years ago. I'm pretty neutral towards AT&T's turbo feature here, the only bad taste left was for those who had unadvertised QCI 7 a couple months ago moved down to 8. In my eyes it would have been a lot better for AT&T to include turbo in those Premium/Elite plans for free to keep them at QCI 7, while also introducing this turbo add on option for any other plans or devices. As it stands now only a handful of plans can add it, and only if you're using a device on a random list of devices AT&T considers to be 5G smartphones.
    • My Red Pocket AT&T GSMA account was dropped to QCI 9 about a year ago.  Most recently 8 for the last few years prior.  Voice remains at 5.
    • https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/05/att-announces-7-monthly-add-on-fee-for-turbo-5g-speeds/ Hopefully we don't ever see T-Mobile do something like this. Based on how I was treated with my Credit Limit, it's definitely not the same company it was before the merger, and it's entirely possible they'd try it.
