Orlando market.

Oh. Orlando has had 15x15 since last March. Are their still towers that don't have it? I know Jacksonville and saint Augustine can get it also.

I'm in the middle of Orlando market and Jacksonville market in a mid sized city Ocala. We are considered the Jacksonville market but the network switch for us is in Orlando so technically we are kind of both markets. Orlando still has plenty of towers that are still 5mhz b25 but over half is 15mhz. Jacksonville is still 10mhz but can be 15mhz so we are still waiting. 10mhz here turned on in July last year so I'm hoping to see 15mhz soon. Also every tower didnt get it. Maybe half of the towers did.

I'm in a Ericsson market where they have been deploying additional antennas for B25 4x MIMO, my closest tower has seen this low key upgrade.  I've noticed a more stable signal on B25 as well as more consistent speeds.

Are you in market that's 10mhz? Or 5mhz CA?

Average around 12-16Mbps during the day 25+Mbps after 10pm or so.  Site is only 4x B25 5x5MHz CA isnt configured yet on my site and 5x5MHz B26.  Speeds are more consistent and stay on B25 90% of the time indoors.

Speeds here on 10mhz can still be slow but thats because there is a lot of boost and sprint customers here. I still have seen plenty of towers with proper backhaul and 10mhz under 1mbps

Which 1 did you flash?

Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

I just gave you the software version. That's the one I flashed. I got it off of website. and I don't really notice too much of a difference with battery life.4527e9a78ed2f9ade36afadef0296ca0.jpg

That's not official, the official one ends in CRAP. That's no joke.

Well it's a final Beta release. They obviously are starting the official roll out but none the less I flashed it and I don't notice any difference in battery life.

I just read on Android Central that Samsung pulled the Oreo update for the S8. I guess we'll all be waiting a bit longer now.

    • A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.
    • Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.
    • Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.
    • Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.    
    • What is the cheapest way to try Dish's wireless network?  Over the past year I've seen them add their equipment to just about every cell site here, I'm assuming just go through Boost's website?  What phones are Dish native?
