Ha. Take my advise don't go down there to test it unarmed

Exactly what I was thinking the other day... I better bring my Mossberg next time I'm around here. If I venture out, I'll definitely be doing it before dark.

It is a good thing, because it means the market is upgraded to the new software that is used for 3G/4G hand offs. Yet a market can go back and forth from evdo to ehrpd. Phoenix is starting to new 4g on towers now, most of it. As u have read, is back haul related. Sprint would have been make to make 250 by the end of the year. If it wasnt a lost down in providers who bringing them backhaul.

I assume since I have edvo network than my area is basically out of scope?

So. I am noticing EHRDP for the first time at my house today. Near 101 and cactus. Is this a good thing :pAnd actually rocking some decent 3G speed for the first time in months. Have I been placebo'dSent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Ok. I will do some more homework. :)

 

Wait, were you wondering if your part of the network wasn't going to be upgraded because you don't have eHRPD? You can rest assured that it will be upgraded. EVDO vs eHRPD doesn't mean a whole lot.

 

Do you have an LTE capable device?

No I dont have a lte yet. I have a HTC with 4g but with the other older type. My network is edvo rev a. When I was at the 19th ave and camelback spot my network was blinking back and forth with older types (rev 0 and 1xrtt).

Well there's the issue right there. Only LTE devices can see eHRPD, because only LTE devices need eHRPD. If you don't have an LTE device, you won't see it.

So where do you find that engineering screen? I'm running cm10.2 and can't find it anywhere.

CM took the engineering screens out of their ROM's.

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
