Samsung SPH-L300- Interesting Rumor

Android Police has posted a pic that might match that last device on the Sprint roadmap from April. According to the article it has a Snapdragon S4.

Could this be fake, or maybe this is our next mystery device.

I read that last night. Although I wont say it is impossible, I will say it hasn't been on the lab schedules. I'm not convinced yet.

So that unidentified phone in Sprint's lab is definitely something other then this?

I think the device in the lab now is a flagship phone. I don't think this "thing" fits the bill.

This phone is definitely not a flagship phone, not being 12mm thick and having 800*480 wvga resolution. But if it has s4 in it and a gig of ram then it could very well be the fastest phone on sprints line up since it has a lot less pixels to push, LOL.

Could very well just be a leaked proof of concept prototype or a network test phone for NV...

At 12mm thick, I'm guessing it's a qwerty device. It would still be slightly thinner than the original Epic 4G. Pretty close in specs and dimensions to the AT&T Samsung Captivate Glide, but with a S4.

I didn't even think of that, 12mm thick for a device with a hardware keyboard is pretty awesome, only if it had a higher resolution though.

Higher resolution would be nice. I haven't noticed the low resolution much on my Evo Shift, so it doesn't bother me too much. I sure noticed it against the E4GT though.

Thats the thing though, you never really notice that sort of thing until you see something else with an even higher resolution.

I agree, just swapped my Epic Touch for the EVO 3D (I have both, just testing an ICS ROM for the 3VO), and I miss that higher res screen.

    • 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.
