I have to tell you all I am near tears right now.  I am so stoked that Marcelo listened to us, directly.  I am sure he listened to all the feedback he heard.  But I believe S4GRU was influential in th

I'm still shocked and amazed how successful S4GRU has been in staying online, remaining relevant and keeping quality members and staff all with member donations from a relatively small pool. When we

Maybe he's outside of the city limits. He'll tweet as soon as he's back in town with a data connection.

Is anyone else seeing a different Sprint.com website?  It looks totally different, at least on the main page?

 

 

This URL should get you there: http://www.sprint.com/tnt22/index-base.html

Congrats to Sprint for the 360 turnaround in Kansas!!

They obviously didn't factor in the east side of the city very heavily. Makes me wonder about these tests. But this rating is impressive considering that I've heard they haven't finished rolling out B41 in Wichita.

If you can't see the new site, try clearing your browser cache and refresh.

I see the new front page using that link. Very nice! When I sign in though, it's the same old layout and colors, etc as before, even after clearing my browser cache.

Yes, I downgraded. :-D

Nice so far but I'm sure...well I hope that the rest of the website will be converted over the next few days. *crossing fingers for a new map*

There is a map on the report page that shows the testing area. Tests are distributed throughout that area.

No, the RootMetrics methodology is fine.  It may not be perfect, but it is the best available -- more systematic and rigorous than the assessments of any casual wireless users.  And the east side was tested thoroughly and equally just as it should be.  You are just fixating on an area where you have experienced service that you deemed less than satisfactory.

Make no mistake, it is not just me who has these issues. Tower spacing is a big problem for sprint on the east side. It is entirely possible that all the carriers have the same issues though so it didnt hurt sprint as much relative to the other carriers. Perhaps by the end of the year they'll be #1 in wichita?

NE Wichita in particular, especially along the K-96 corridor is mediocre.  But is improving with B26.  Three well placed sites out that way would probably put Sprint as #1, handily.  But this still shows that Sprint is competitive in Wichita, in fact, among the best.  But Sprint customers know every place where it's not good, and focus on them.  

 

I am an AT&T customer, and all the places they are not great drive me nuts.  But I would still believe RootMetrics report on my area about AT&T.  Even if they said they were tied with VZW.

Whats this about free international data roaming? Is that coming to other plans?

 

http://www.sprint.com/landings/unlimited-plus-samsung-galaxy/index.html#!/

 

Supposedly throttled at 2G speeds; specific country list:

  • Argentina
  • Brazil
  • Chile
  • Costa Rica
  • El Salvador
  • Germany
  • Guatemala
  • Japan
  • Mexico
  • Nicaragua
  • Panama
  • Russia
  • South Korea
  • Spain
  • United Kingdom

Hopefully they can broaden the coverage (*cough* Canada) and make this option available on all unlimited plans.

Yeah they're definitely behind TMO on the international thing.

It's not like the countries picked are solely up to Sprint. The foreign careers have to play ball and the economics have to work as well.

Sure but gotta admit, not having Canada while having Guatemala is an absolute joke.

If you look at the Sprint user base here in NJ and surrounding states it probably makes more sense.

      Interesting, I saw this too on my AT&T S22 while roaming on US Cellular. I thought it was an Android bug since CellMapper was doing the same thing (didn't get a screenshot of that one). N66 makes more sense than N1.

      Thanks, that was good timing, I did see your report as I was buttoning up this latest update and added an override for that.. did it not work?   Ok, was that on AT&T also? Please send a report if you happen to see it again and safely have the opportunity. You can always do the long-press on the fly and then send a later one with an explanation pointing to the earlier one.. your username is attached to the long-press reports, so it's not an issue.

      I sent a report in earlier, n66 reporting as n1. There should be two different reports, I couldn't find the button the first time so I just long pressed the connection type to send, then I remembered where it was. I put a note about the issue on the 2nd report. Both reports from me are for the same issue. Also, it might have been on a prior release but earlier this week I also saw n66 reported as n65 on the app. I was driving and wasn't able to send a report in for that one.

      One more SCP beta rolling out.. includes more bugfixes and minor improvements. Pending any major issues with this version, it will be released to the public within a few days. Thanks for all the help and feedback!

      Passed by the former Sprint site at 1184 60th St in Brooklyn last week and noticed T-Mobile took down all of the Sprint equipment but it looked like they installed some new cabinets so conversion is likely in progress.
