We are currently $250 short from making our IP Board payment for May. It is due on 5/24. If we do not have the funds deposited in time, S4GRU will go offline until it's paid.

 

I have personally made up short falls at times in the past, but I am unable to this month. Some of you have personally stepped up and helped in the past too. Thank you for helping at those times.

 

I will take down this post once we cross the $250 needed threshold. If the site goes offline tomorrow, you'll know we didn't make it. I thank you in advance for your consideration.

I don't think I would have stayed with sprint if it hadn't been for this site. A few dollars sent. Thanks James

 

S4GRU never has intended to be a Sprint advocacy site, only an education site -- focused mostly on Sprint, though we have branched out to other topics over the years.

 

Honestly, we do not care which wireless provider you choose, only that you make an informed decision.

 

However, many members have said that they stayed with Sprint purely because of the information they learned here.  Even if that numbers just 100 subs -- and the number probably is a lot greater -- that is a lot of revenue per year.  It would be nice if Sprint were surreptitiously to send S4GRU a little "thank you" donation.

 

Overland Park, are you listening?

Are we close to the target yet

 

My understanding from Robert's posts is that the impending financial goal has been met.

 

Thank you, everyone.  Many donated.  I contributed, too.

 

So, S4GRU will not go dark.  Good!

 

But may I suggest at least a $5 monthly recurring contribution?  I do.  If enough of our members would do so at this level, we likely never would have a financial need again.

 

If you appreciate S4GRU, think of it as a burger, half a pizza, only once per month.  S4GRU remains member supported.  We stick around as long as you want us to stick around.

I would suggest their thank you donation could be of a certain non-monetary form that would also appreciated.

I'm gonna close the thread. Thanks all who rose up. You're still welcome to donate to help cover next month, of course!

      Uploaded data without issues on Friday. Now with the latest update I am getting "Cluster #1 skipped: invalid file format detected. File exported for inspection." Doing same with all other clusters. Did this on 4 phones in a row.  Seems to work on s24 ultra just fine. On s21 ultra it says "web data upload failed. No data to send" although 8800 records were displayed. Now gives same error as above. I have not sent the data from 3 other phones.  All should have latest update.

      SignalCheck - Android app to monitor your Wi-Fi/2G/3G/4G LTE/5G-NR signal strengths

      By mikejeep · Posted

      After several months of testing, an update to SignalCheck Pro is rolling out on Google Play. It may take up to 48 hours to become available for download. Notable changes include: Added option to display site notes for NSA 5G-NR cells. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show NSA 5G-NR Site Notes) will cause the app to make an "educated guess" as to what the most appropriate site note is linked to the connected NSA 5G cell, using the PCI and the device location. If it finds an existing entry that is likely to be relevant, it will display the note along with the distance from where the strongest signal from that cell was logged. While connected to NSA 5G, these notes cannot be edited; a valid NCI is required to add/edit notes and that information is not available on NSA connections.   Added option to log cells with missing/invalid PLMN (such as NSA 5G-NR cells). Users asked for the ability to log data for NSA 5G, so a new option (Preferences > Logger Settings > Log Cells with Missing PLMN) will permit this.   Added option to display LTE info above 5G-NR info. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show LTE Cells Above 5G-NR Cells) shows the same information that is currently displayed, but moves the LTE information above the 5G-NR information. Other changes: Code optimizations and enhancements. Improved Android 15 compatibility. Overhauled Purchases module. Resolved force closes impacting some GSM/LTE connections. Resolved issue with improper 5G-NR PLMN display when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with improper PLMN display with single-digit MNCs. Resolved issue with incorrect 5G-NR bands displayed on some devices due to Android bug. Resolved issue with incorrect number of neighbor cells displayed when some cells were unknown. Resolved issue with missing 5G-NR data when sector display is enabled. Resolved issue with saving 5G-NR site notes when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with settings to log missing GCI/NCI/TAC/PLMN being ignored. Resolved issues with web data export function. Updated internal libraries. Updated provider database. Updated target API to Android 15. I appreciate all of your support, and a big thank you to the members of the Beta Crew that help with testing and feedback!

      Stopped by again today and the antennas are up but it isn't live just yet. If other Sprint conversions are anything to go by it'll likely take about a month for the site to go live.

      It is an Android bug that was reportedly fixed in August 2023 but definitely has not been. I have implemented numerous workarounds in SCP to correct the NR bands the app displays. The OS ignores the possibility that many NR-ARFCNs are valid across multiple bands.. it reports the lowest NR band that is valid for the current ARFCN. In your example, channel 432530 can be n1, n65, or n66.. so the OS just (lazily) reports n1.   Awesome, thanks! I will add an n65 override also.
