dkyeager Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 You really need two phones to test just the 5g with one having the 5g turned off. Would love to see the LTE 5g settings and debug screens. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk If it's only a software update then Sprint WTF. Sprint still has improves to make. I'm going on vacation in a couple of weeks to northern Minnesota and Sprint is terrible there. Barely has B41. Last year when I was there uploading pics would fail. Not dealing with that this year.

[emoji6]Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkYeah but doesn't sound like that area does. Once you get even more north Sprint loses coverage and starts VZW roamingSent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where I live it shows only native coverage and roaming is enabled on lots of towers. Some towers Sprint and Tmobile share and they still have roaming on them.Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnjeepmale Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Yes sirSent from my SM-G965U1 using TapatalkThat's what I figured. Going North of Duluth service is hit and miss.

jakeuten Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Take it from a Duluth native, heading up to Two Harbors, Gooseberry, Palisade Head, etc. Sprint is nonexistent and T-Mobile is awful as well. Super patchy and unoptimized... it will say you're connected to LTE but won't load. This happened on my iPhone XS, Galaxy S8+, and a LG G7. AT&T is really the only way to go that far north.

Brad The Beast Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 They need to get 5G on 100MHz so they're closer Verizons mmWave speed-wise. 300Mbps is what we see on LTE currently. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
