Network Vision/LTE - Phoenix Market (including Flagstaff, Prescott)

I posted this in the Sponsor's area but, thought I'd post here, too. The tower near the Loop 101 and I-17 in North Phoenix has had new panels and RRU's installed in the last day or three. It appears to be still under construction but, looks as if the majority of the work on the towers is complete. Its just south of 23rd ave and Behrend.

Went out to Phoenix for the weekend and I will say the signal was good for sprint. I didn't really have too many issues outside of the in and out on the 10 between major cities. Surprise signal was good as was downtown Phoenix.

So I live in phoenix and I keep hearing 2 to 3 months for 4g lte. But when I looked on this site and sprints site I cant seam to find anywhere I can read this for my self, the 3g is so slow and if I want to download apps I wait to get home to link to my wifi. I just became a sprint customer and not to happy with the speed of the network as of right now and understand there updating there network and that could be why things are so slow right now. Can I get a straight answer from someone.

if you are a sponsor to this site you can see that building is really ramping up in Phoenix. You will start seeing 3g improvements all over town now and in the coming weeks and months. If history teaches us something you should also start seeing lte pop up in parts of town in a month or two. You won't be waiting long, the towers are upgrading now!

How does one become a sponsor, and how much does it cost?

Unfortunately I would have nothing of interest to add, just here for rip roaring good time... :-) and education of course!

Long time lurker, first time supporter.

 

It's great to see work being done in the Phoenix area. There's a "Completed" tower less than 1.5 miles (suburbia) from my house. I thought I'd be able to hop on that one but no luck. Do they bring all the LTE towers online together once an area is completed?

 

Edit: I should clarify, I have an iPhone 4 and am not on Sprint (yet). I used my wife's iPhone 5 on Sprint to test the LTE tower.

No LTE sites completed in PHX market yet. Just 3G upgrades so far. The sites with LTE upgrades accepted will change to yellow (to denote 3G/4G accepted). I'm thinking the first site is within 10-20 days by my guess.

I've been poking around the sponsors section and learning a lot, but hadn't figured out the "switch to yellow = LTE" yet. Thanks!

They are already actively working on Network Vision there in Phoenix. It just takes time to complete the work.

you SIR! will not get my hopes up! yeah they'll probably build it and LTE signal will die one block from my apartment ... I refuse to believe I'll ever have LTE without switching carriers!

    • 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.
