Band 41?

Yes. Forgot to post the engineering screen, mind you this is right next to the tower at work, 15 feet at most. Would probably have been better if I was a little further away. I got a best of 70/15 in the 3 tests I did.

The speedtest.net server is a comcast server. The external IP in the screenshot is a Sprint IP address.

I noticed the Sprint IP too, but went by the Wifi indicator at the top. When I'm not on LTE and try to do a speedtest.net test, it connects to a Sprint server.

The speed test is from at least 11 hours before the screenshot notice the time difference between the system clock and the app clock.

My mistake. Thanks for the correction.

So remember some months ago I had T-Mobile roaming while on Sprint 1X, and then it vanished?  I was sitting in the hospital in Farmville earlier today on 1X when suddenly, my LG G6 popped up that it had received a profile update.  When it finished reconnecting, I was still on Sprint 1X, but on US Cellular LTE roaming.  And, indeed, I've continued to have US Cellular roaming available to me in areas where Sprint LTE is unavailable throughout the day.

No sign of T-Mobile roaming though.  I would imagine they want to prioritize US Cellular roaming over T-Mobile anyway, and US Cellular is a lot better than T-Mobile around here.

My wife (Galaxy S7) and my mother (Moto E4 Plus) both do not seem to have gotten such an update yet.  I hope it is coming.

Quick update; I've been here for a few days now and it seems to be freely roaming on US Cellular and, to a lesser extent, T-Mobile.  I've seen the same two T-Mobile sites I saw a few months ago a few times, but US Cellular much more frequently.  Sitting in the hospital right now, I'm looking at Sprint 1X at -105 dBm, while also connected to US Cellular Band 5 LTE at -103 dBm.  I've been connecting to US Cellular LTE all over down here now, and it makes the experience far, far better.

Yes.

And also randomly dropped LTE and roamed on LTE for the first time not sure if TMobile or AT&T was in the car so wasn't able to get a speed test in it was brief.

Well that's exciting, glad to see roaming is finally coming to fruition. Will be great when I visit my mom, her whole neighborhood is just horrible in general for cell service but T-Mobile is better than Sprint in the same area. I usually sit on 1x800 in her house, if I'm not on her WiFi my phone is useless. ?

Sprint PLMN, so it definitely is T-Mobile.
Only question is why is it coming up as "Roaming"? I thought all T-Mobile roaming this far was showing up as native on phones?
Likely connected to non-Sprint 1x with SRLTE.

What market are you from?

Sitting on T-Mobile B4 right now at work, could get used to having full bars in these old buildings. My Sprint LTE was only two bars at best with random drops to 3G.

    • I posted this in the Nebraska Premier thread last week, but just wanted to share in this thread the progress that T-Mobile has made in filling in the great coverage gap known as Nebraska. Between late last year and this year, they have added 28 new expansion sites filling in the coverage hole, plus 11 Sprint site conversions in eastern Nebraska and far western Iowa. Notably, in the last month n41 coverage was added on over a dozen expansion sites in western Nebraska that were added to the network last year. For comparison, here is the very first map that I created in October of 2022 after we noted expansion sites outside of Sprint conversion in Lincoln and Omaha. It doesn't show any western parts of the state, but just know there was nothing besides roaming coverage and a little B12 coverage leaking down from South Dakota to the west of Valentine, NE.
    • Sent a copy of my DB in an e-mail just now.  Couldn't leave the house today but can hopefully get a screenshot when I'm out on another cell site tomorrow.
    • 76MB Google Play System update after that, bringing the date up to 3/1 from prior 2/1 date. 
    • April security patch is already out - 738.30 MB download. 
    • What do you see with the latest alpha/ beta version?
