Think I set a new speed record, for my devices anyway. This was at Yale and Monaco.

Any and all 31/32/33 39/3A/3B endings are Nokia Mini Macros on Macros typically found on former Clearwire sites. Each mini macro is a stand alone BTS so will have unique GCI identifiers.  For old

Well this site just got upgraded. This was a gmo with legacy panels. Sorry for posting here but my password for premier isn't working. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Thanks for the info, David. Been a lurker here forever hoping to get the inside scoop on when our network would finally be updated. After 2 years, looks like we're close.

Go donate a little and you can get the inside scoop. ;)

 

We just had 29 sites turned on and the locations of those towers on a google map are just a few dollars away...

Got rock solid LTE in Lafayette this morning for the first time Indoors at the Bowling alley at 287 and South Boulder Road. That used to be a dead zone for Sprint 3G.

Hey Santa, since you're in my neck of the woods have you been able to force lte on any towers South of 285 on wads? I was getting over 50 down a week ago and now it will just try to connect and then disconnect back to 3g. Been like that for a couple days. Probably just working on the towers?

same problems here. I can get downloads up to 50 at wadsworth and 285 through Sheridan, but ltd band 41 at the office Tufts and wadsworth. I haven't traveled South on Wadsworth for a couple of weeks, so I can't speak to it. My gut tells me they are getting us ready to be accepted. We'll see.

We have 4G Lte along this corrider in a sprint spark band, It takes a tri band phone to get it. Like Denver nugs, I could pull Lte along this corrider until a week ago. I think they are testing it out now. I went through the same process a couple of weeks ago on the se side of town. I am hoping we see the same results. Hopefully we will see this area on s. wadsworth accepted by 3g, then turned onto 4g in the next month... It's comming. Have some hope!

Band 41 completed testing long ago........ They're not turning it on and off for the heck of it. Its been live since July of last summer.

 

If you're not able to connect to it now, it likely has something to do with the new 3G network, and nothing to do with the LTE network.

He's speaking specifically for band 41. You're probably getting something else over in Greeley

I don't know what band I was getting. How does one check that? (I'm a noob around these parts).

 

And no, I haven't gotten LTE anywhere since Monday. And I have an HTC One M8

Did this change when you got the M8 (what device before that?) or have you LTE on the M8 in these areas before?

yeah, I got the M8 when I switched to sprint (March 28). Got LTE when I booted the phone for the first time and through last Monday. Now just 3G.

That's an awesome find.  Let's hope this is a "today" thing as suggested.  If it is "today" I suspect that means "tonight" which would make it a great birthday present for me to wake up to in the morning!

It means 1% of users will see the update today. 1% tomorrow, 1% the next day, and the next and the next. Then bumped to 10%, then 20, then 50... etc. 

 

It's good news alright, but it might still take some time for everyone to start seeing the update.

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      I think the push for them is adding US Mobile as a MVNO with a priority data plan.  Ultimately, making people more aware of priority would allow them (and other carriers) to differentiate themselves from MVNOs like Consumer Cellular that advertise the same coverage. n77 has dramatically reduced the need for priority service at Verizon where the mere functioning of your phone was in jeopardy a couple of years ago if you had a low priority plan like Red Pocket. Only have heard of problems with T-Mobile in parts of Los Angeles. AT&T fell in between. All had issues at large concerts and festivals, or sporting events if your carrier has no on-site rights. Edit: Dishes native 5g network has different issues: not enough sites, limited bandwidth. Higher priority would help a few. Truth is they can push phones to AT&T or T-Mobile.

      Tracfone AT&T sims went from QCI 8 to 9 as well a couple years ago. I'm pretty neutral towards AT&T's turbo feature here, the only bad taste left was for those who had unadvertised QCI 7 a couple months ago moved down to 8. In my eyes it would have been a lot better for AT&T to include turbo in those Premium/Elite plans for free to keep them at QCI 7, while also introducing this turbo add on option for any other plans or devices. As it stands now only a handful of plans can add it, and only if you're using a device on a random list of devices AT&T considers to be 5G smartphones.

      My Red Pocket AT&T GSMA account was dropped to QCI 9 about a year ago.  Most recently 8 for the last few years prior.  Voice remains at 5.

      https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/05/att-announces-7-monthly-add-on-fee-for-turbo-5g-speeds/ Hopefully we don't ever see T-Mobile do something like this. Based on how I was treated with my Credit Limit, it's definitely not the same company it was before the merger, and it's entirely possible they'd try it.
