Athens, GA LTE

[david279]

This must be something sprint injected in the aosp code for effected phone on ics because its not present in cm9 on my nexus s 4g. My nexus s 4g accepts my msl and its on 4.0.4. That could be a big problem. Maybe today's supposedly update for the sprint galaxy nexus fixes it.

theres no way im rooting this phone, its perfect the way it is.

[lynyrd65]

Yes, Sprint doesn't know what it is. They insist using the MSL #, which doesn't work.

 

 

 

Yes. Nothing comes up as the Lock Code. Me and hundreds of other hackers have tried every conceivable code there is all to no avail. At least, so far.

Try just typing "getprop" without the "RIL.MSL" then scroll for a five digit number.

Root is required for me as I use Roam control too much and several other root only apps.

+1 for roam control not to mention titanium backup is a must as well as wifitether. Root is a must for me as well.

[Mercurial1]

There is also a one time lock code listed in your account that may work. I will try this later today and see if it works.

MSL doesn't work... that will not work.

Kinda sounds like the lock code thing they did to the TP2 debug screen years ago. I can't remember the code though.

I found some dialer codes for the GSM version

Don't know if any of those would help or if they work on Sprint's version.

Just curious, with LTE active, have you noticed any significant battery drain? I know LTE is supposed to run off Sprint's 1900Mhz spectrum, so theoretically there shouldn't be since it doesn't require the activation of a separate antenna like WiMax, but I'd like to hear it first hand...

the longest i've been on that tower is a half hour.... so......

I don't think that it has that much to do with activating another antenna. If the phone is searching for LTE connection, or searching for a stronger connection, it will use battery, regardless of the antenna used. 1x and EV-DO are both on 1900mhz now and even if the phone is connected to 1x, it burns through the battery looking for EV-DO and stronger connections of 1x.

I live near Athens, GA and am there quite often. I am excited about the 4G LTE towers that Sprint has put up and am looking forward to fast speeds once it is turned on.

Per this map, there is a tower practically sitting right on top of my house.

Robert, can you tell me if AT70XC192 is on the 30 day list to be converted to LTE in Athens? It's literally in my backyard...

I'm in the car at a stoplight at the moment.

 

When I get to the office later today I will check.

No. Work to start in July and 4G On-Air date in August for that site.

It would be AWESOME if you could speedtest using the sprint speedtest server in atlanta.

 

I bet that would get the absolute fastest speeds possible.

edit: if you haven't installed adobe flash from the google play store, you won't be able to run the test

it didn't, i moved on to another server.

Interesting. You would think Sprint would offer the fastest speeds. Thanks for the info. What were the speeds like on the sprint.com/speedtest site?

[danielholt]

was in atlanta all day yesterday all over east side, and stone mountain area... not a single tick of LTE.

Yeah, visited a few areas around the city and nothing yet. There towers close to my house as well and nothing yet either.
