Just another one of the random Cult of Legere cowards.

John is up for the day. He's on Twitter doing what he does best. He's trashing the results. I did however find this funny.

I think John should be more concerned with all this backlash he's getting for this new $20 "assistance fee"

John C. B. Saw - Chief Technology Officer

Hey, Jennifer. Just as a background, 74% of our postpaid sales in the quarter was CA capable, so there has been a rapid improvement and increase in CA capable phones. In terms of 3CA phones, we have five today that support three channel carrier aggregation including the Samsung Galaxy S7 and the GS7 Edge. Three more we haven't really announced yet, but we will be doing some demos around that. So, the array of devices supporting CA is going to continue to increase and we expect to be rolling out upgrades to the network to support three channel carrier aggregation in a couple of months.

So many flavors, and he chose to be salty.

Unless I'm missing something here... It doesn't add up:

 

S7

S7 Edge

HTC 10

like I said before, I have a feeling the G5 might be part of that list. And maybe the axon 7

 

The LG G5 doesn't support 3xCA: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-409-teaser-lifes-good-with-volte/

 

The LG G5 LS992 is not 3x CA B41 capable -- unlike the Sprint variants of the Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge.

Galaxy 7, galaxy edge, Note 7,IPhone 7,HTC10.

 

Also he said 3x will go live within the next two months which would hit the target in September with the launch of the iPhone.

This includes bringing LTE Plus to even more markets and further unlocking the power of our deep spectrum position. Sprint has more spectrum deployed on LTE per consumer than any other carrier today. And no other company has the spectrum to unlock the power of carrier aggregation like Sprint does. We're already rolling out devices in the market that supports three channel carrier aggregation that are expected to deliver big speeds in excess of 200 megabits per second when we were allowed three channel carrier aggregation in the network expected as early as – early 2017.

So today my service has been acting very strange. On speed test I am getting between 30- 50 mbs down, but when I try to run YouTube it either fails to load, buffers constantly and/or takes forever to load. I switch to Wi-Fi and YouTube runs fine. I did just update the app today but this is not a good experience.

I'm having the same issue as well that and my pic messages via iMessage failing to send.

He's sticking to the script. This is what they have been saying.  If they can beat this deadline then all is better on Sprint. In the meantime, get those permits approved already!

Seems we have a meltdowns at fiercewireless, and now these morons are attacking Robert character. They are so angry and pissed that they can't infiltrate this place. I know maximum and Fabian_Cortez are the ones behind all those guests accounts.

The first "Paul" commercial was really successful.

 

Marcelo said in the call today:

 

 

I have discussed previously how perception has lagged reality on both accounts, and we're starting to break through with one of the most successful marketing campaigns in Sprint's history. As I mentioned earlier, all networks are good today, so it was time to make that point clear.

 

With the help of Paul Marcarelli, the actor who used to ask if you could hear me now for Verizon, will launch an advertising campaign to highlight the fact that networks today aren't that different so customers shouldn't have to pay more. The campaign has been one of the most successful in company's history with over 1 billion impressions already, as the ad has been viewed over 8 million times on YouTube, with nearly 300 million impressions on social media and close to 100 million impressions on broadcast media.

It's nice they still consider me a threat even though I haven't even written an article in a year and haven't even been out promoting Sprint the past 365 days, either.  :hah:

    • Tbh not that surprising. Every ISP seems to want to have an MVNO to pitch to their customers to make them stickier and maybe make some money in the process. And unlike USCC the MVNO should be able to cover TDS's entire wireline area, with infrastructure costs that are borne by someone else. Entertaining, yes. Surprising, not really...particularly when competing against Comcast or Spectrum, or even eventually T-Mobile fixed + mobile. This also strengthens my bet that they'll rebrand all their fixed wireless stuff as TDS, as that runs on spectrum they're keeping for now.
    • No? RCS on Google messages works great for me, messages between anyone with RCS enabled go through with no problems. Don't remember the last time I had an issue. I only have issues with people on iPhones on different carriers from T-Mobile.
    • Has anyone experienced a ridiculous amount of difficulty with Google messages with RCS enabled?  It has been a train wreck for me for the past year so I now use WhatsApp.  That works very well for all of us.... Android and iOS.  
    • Probably not worth the fiddling given that that's a few percent of the band. Also, if they really wanted to push my assumption is there are still guard bands in play for the n41 carriers so they could fit two "100 MHz" carriers into 194 MHz anyway. Looks like minimum guard band is less than 1 MHz and a 100 MHz channel is only 273 30 KHz resource blocks, which is a bit over 80 MHz total, so if they really wanted to pull another 5% or so capacity out they could.
    • Saw that for a while. Now back to n25 + n71 + n41-100Mhz + n41-90Mhz.
