I think I'm kind of disappointed in CES this year. Maybe it's because I haven't been following along very closely. I've been buried with work and all. Robert

Which features? Certainly not 4x4 MIMO, and probably not even CA. Robert

I was an early enough adopter that I was able to give away all my old CRT's. Robert via Samsung Note II via Tapatalk

I'm glad to see the tower I reported is live. Robert via Samsung Note II via Tapatalk

LTE Roaming On Other Networks May Be Influenced By The IPhone 5

I have rouge ants in my yard. You know, the red ones. But my daughters have "rogue" aunts too. Sorry to have a laugh at your expense. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk -
So...which Sprint phone has the best RF quality?
S4GRU replied to Ascertion's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
That would have drove me nuts. I'm glad I didn't have that same exact problem. However, the bug on the GNex of losing data connections all together was more annoying for me. Sometimes even a reboot wouldn't fix it! Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk -
Son are you guys saying that soon Sprint will be "Flushing" away slow data speeds in Queens? WHOOSH! Sorry, I couldn't resist! Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk

No problem. There is a common misperception when people see new installed RRU's and NV panels, that the site is complete. But it is only 2/3 done at that point. The last third is done in the cabinets and provisioning/testing. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk

Network Vision/LTE - East Kentucky Market (Lexington)
S4GRU replied to lil_jimmy_norton's topic in Markets
Here is a thread which shows you what to look for on Sprint towers: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/2902-how-to-spot-sprint-panels-and-rrus-ericsson-style/ If you see something like this, let us know. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk -
I agree with that. Drives me bonkers. In drive in and out of the Sprint network all day long in rural New Mexico. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk

The E4GT LOS bug was related to going to roaming if memory serves. When I was in very low signal areas and my device would start scanning 850 it would go to LOS. But when I installed the radios from Calkulin ROM when he went to ICS, the problem went away for me. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk -
I expect CA capability to start showing up in devices this year. But will anyone be deploying any CA network side anytime soon? Additionally, the 4x MIMO issue is more of a device real estate problem than anything. Sticking another two diverse antennas in a smartphone is a tall order, especially for carriers already employing several bands. It will likely be employed in tablets and hotspots first.

Work is under way in the SW Florida market, but it is not as advanced as the Tampa market. You should check out this thread which shows you what to look for on your towers: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/2902-how-to-spot-sprint-panels-and-rrus-ericsson-style/ Additionally, if you become a Sponsor, you can see maps of all the sites in your area, as well as get access to maps of all the sites complete. More information about becoming a S4GRU Sponsor here: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/1195-information-about-s4gru-sponsorship-levels-and-how-to-become-a-sponsor/ And for your future use, the SW Florida market thread is here: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/1358-network-visionlte-south-west-florida-market/page__hl__florida__st__140 Welcome to S4GRU. I hope to see you around the forums. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk

I have a love/hate thing for Tmo. Where it is good, it is great. However, to not have a ubiquitous 3G network over all or most of your coverage in 2013 is unconscionable. The number of 4G to 2G seams in my area is amazing. Also, Tmo tends to have worse indoor coverage than even Sprint. Well at least in my area. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk

It all comes down to timing. Robert via Samsung Note II via Tapatalk

No phones currently on the market support any of the 'advanced' benefits of LTE Advanced. And no specific device has been advertised in the future to support it either. So it is unknown which will be the first device. As for 4x4 MIMO it may be a few years before technology advances to put that many antennas in a smartphone. That aspect of LTE Advanced may be only for larger devices like tablets for some time. Carrier Aggregation can be done now on the device side, but CA with three LTE bands may be a stretch. We just don't know much about LTE Advanced and device development yet. I haven't seen anything out of CES yet. Robert via Samsung Note II via Tapatalk

Upload it to any 3rd party site and post the link, or use the picture embed feature and enter the URL. And I just checked again and still only see 1 Voice Upgrade for St. Thomas. Robert

Comments related to the NV Running List Thread
S4GRU replied to MacinJosh's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
I don't want it pinned. Lots of pinned things already. I think I have a link inside the actual running list. So that should be sufficient for those people reading the Running List, but want to comment on it. Robert -
