My phone is no longer an LTE/NV virgin!!!!  I know its sad, but my phone has never connected to a upgraded tower whether it be just a 3g upgrade or LTE.  But driving to the airport this morning obviou

Close but not quite, 800 have a much LONGER range.    Here's the advantages to a Tri-Band device.   You have access to three bands of LTE: 1900 (PCS), 800 (SMR), and 25/2600 (TD-LTE).   PCS LTE

Well it gives us the sector 3 per site so then when new sites pop up we can tell which site we are actually connected to.

I've checked the location where the tower is in Eagle Mountain and I see it as an EvDo-Rev A.

I thought if the tower is to be updated, it would have something listed as eHRPD listed?

 

But I drive by too early for a photo.. I will try again tonite to get pic

which one are you referring to? They added a tower to the site on top if the hill but I haven't seen it Finished so I'm not sure who they put one that one. Its typical to see your data go back in forth during nv even if work on that tower hasn't started yet.

Yes that is the site in which they added a tower. I haven't checked it about a month. They where still building the new tower at that time and no sign of nv.

Last night and this morning in Provo I was getting a very weak LTE signal in a very specific spot in my apartment. However, i was not able to get a signal when i walked out of my apt to head to work this morning. I am pretty sure i know what tower is broadcasting the LTE but since i wasn't able to connect when i left i don't know for sure. I will try and figure out for sure when i go home this afternoon. I am using an iPhone 5 jailbroken and use an app called Signal 2 to map towers since i can't use sensorly. Anyone else in provo near 7th E and 7th N who has seen LTE also?

It may have come from the new Spanish Fork site that was accepted yesterday. If your apartment is above the ground level, that makes sense why you couldn't get it outside on the ground.

That makes sense. I do live on the third floor. But i also work off of center st in Orem smack in the middle of I-15 and Geneva Rd. and i haven't gotten any LTE here. but again, that of course could be my elevation to the road. i will let you guys know if i get anything else and have a better update for you all. So maybe after work i will drive around Orem area and see what i get. Maybe when i am on I-15 i will get something or maybe only if i were to drive north. we will see. Thanks Robert!!

 

EDIT: I mean if i am on I-15 going south. I guess i probably wouldn't get LTE in orem it is is from the Spanish Fork tower. My geography was off. haha.

If you get something in Orem, definitely let us know! I guess any LTE is something we should know all know about, but Orem is especially important. ;)

If there is anything is the Orem/Provo area, I can go map it and get screenshots and such.

Definitely will do mew1033! I agree that Orem is very important. I work in Orem and I attend UVU studying Computer Forensics. So i spend most of my time here. I just want LTE so bad when I am anywhere in Orem/Provo!

Driving home work my work today i got 4G back behind the VA medical center off sunnyside dr until just before 13th south. I drove back around to map it more and followed foothills toward 215 and it dropped off just after 1300 East. Also i got 4G on 201 headed towards WVC until i got to the 215 turn off then it died.. i didnt get  a change to map it, but i did get all of my drive on foothills..

trevlegit if you could get the lte enginering screen shots of the sector ids that would be great! Oh and post the screen shots!

I will do my best! It is hard to get the right spot and each time i tried doing a speedtest or anything else i would lose LTE pretty quick. But i am sure i can make it happen.

Look at your lte engineering screen and post screen shot we can tell what tower you are connecting to by the info in it and see if its a new or existing lte site

i've got an iphone too and it sounds like you're much more comfortable with yours than i am with mine. do you know how to get to the engineering screen? i haven't figured it out yet.

Bosco, Open the dialer and dial *3001#12345#*   (make sure to include both * and then press Call)

Select LTE and/or Serving Cell Info

Physical Cell ID and Cell Identity are both values pertaining to the site ID.

      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.
