4soundman Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Hey, if you look at your status screen in your settings when you are in the GC area do you have EVDO Rev A or EHRPD? I'll check when I get back to the IL side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilg740 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 EHRPD I don't understand why I am always on EVDO rev a and everyone else is on eHRPD. I have huge problems getting a 4G connection and sometimes have to shut the phone completely down and back on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilg740 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 For some reason, deep within a hidden menu in my phone eHRPD was disabled. I am now, finally on eHRPD. My wife's Gnex had the same problem...just fixed both. Not sure why it would be like that stock. I thought it may have been something with the stock rom that I am on or something that happened when I was rooting but my wife's is bone stock.

Glad you found and fixed it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilg740 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I also found a hidden menu in my phone that will allow me to change the frequency of LTE scans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dedub Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 hopefully enabling ehrpd will also fix your 4g connection issues too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilg740 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 hopefully enabling ehrpd will also fix your 4g connection issues too Now I am dealing with another problem. I went into a hidden menu and it now tells me i need to activate. My phone works and data works....not really sure what the deal is there either.

steveholt Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I just get the feeling sprint is going to light up 50 towers today... All of them being right outside all of our houses. Anybody else get that feeling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilg740 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Visited the site at Lucas and Hunt & New Halls Ferry yesterday. It had new panels & RRUs, new cabinets, and a black SUV with dark windows parked inside the fence. Orange wires from the window of the SUV to the cabinet. I asked the guy inside if he was testing the new Sprint equipment and he said no, he was programming it. Asked if he knew when they would fire it up, he said probably within a week or two. We'll see. Looks like it was sooner than weeks....if someone could drive by there and confirm(and get HEX SCID) that would be awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decoy Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Looks like it was sooner than weeks.... Just yesterday afternoon, I drove down New Halls Ferry from 270 to Chambers with LTE Discovery running in cycle mode. I was curious to see if that site was on. My phone cycled out of airplane mode within sight of the tower. No 4G. Maybe I'll make another trip. Are you seeing that it has been accepted? 4G?

Jussta Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Seems as if work at Des Peres - Flushing Meadows is complete. Yesterday and cables for pulling up antennas were gone and today no one was there. Antennas are installed on the tower. Now lets get Sprint to fire up the LTE on it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup when I drove past today I saw no trucks out front. The new equipment appears to be up there. I can see a shiny bar of some sort....I just noticed it from 44 while driving by it caught my eye as extra new/shiny looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gvaughn711 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Anyone know if this is Sprint on top? They have been working on this tower the last few days, putting in new panels. This is in Hillsboro, MO . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
