Network Vision/LTE - Missouri Market (includes St. Louis)

If only I enjoyed Android a bit more (I've only had experience with Gingerbread...) I'd be completely on board with it.  But I've never had an issue with my iPhone 4.  I'm torn now.

Android has come a long way since Gingerbread to Jelly Bean (and soon Kit Kat). I think any of the new high end Android phones you would enjoy very much. I have the HTC ONE, and would never trade it for an iOS device. That's my preference anyway.

Nope, that's the Cellular band which Apple has mistakenly been labeling as 800 for some time.

 

The SMR band is actually 800. And yes, 800 CDMA is primarily for voice, but can be a data path too if you can't pick up 1900 EVDO or LTE. It'll be slow, but still a data path. Data on that band takes a back seat to voice traffic, so more voice, slower data.

Hmm speaking of simultaneous voice and data. I know the G2 won't offer SVDO or the LTE equivalent but does anyone know if any manufacturer will support either/both or is this a standards issue?

I believe the Note 3 and I could be wrong that it will support SVLTE

I agree completely. I have a year old rooted and rommed HTC EVO 4G LTE that still rocks. I want the complete freedom to do (and sometimes fail) what I wish.

SVDO is a thing of the past, no current generation devices support SVDO. The latest devices do support SVLTE. However, any Tri-Band device will not support SVLTE, likely due to the number LTE radios needed to be crammed into the device.

Are you saying that LTE over 800 will be slow? How slow we talking?

[steveo314]

Just a reminder, I'm putting a list together of screennames and cities of residence and work and device so we know who we have where for future reference. PM me your info.

[Dkoellerwx]

No, not at all. We were talking about 800 CDMA. Not LTE.

800 LTE will be set up exactly the same as 1900 LTE, max speeds of 37.5Mbps.

[dedub]

I thought 800 was strictly 1x advanced & lte only. No cdma.

CDMA=1x. EVDO is the data side.

I think he means that 800 CDMA (1x) data will be slow. There is no 3G on 800.

 

 

They beat me to it ignore my comment  above.

Well according to sprint its 3G....lol

Well we are loading up on Premier Sponsors now!

1x - CDMA - EVDO - they're all 3G technologies. So yes, 3G will be deployed on 800. But CDMA only. No EVDO.

No...Used a credit card...

I'm sure you think you know what you thought I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize what I typed is not what I meant.

 

I know its all 3G but ... to me (maybe a lot of people) medium speed data is 3G. I know that's not right but thats  how I think about it. I think the little 3G icon has brainwashed me.  Your 100% right EVDO is what I should have said.

Might add a column for 800 and 2600 LTE if they have a triband hotspot or dual/triband phone.. I don't. You never know when that info could come in handy.

Did you figure out how to get the SCIDs on the MiFi?
