Sprint subcontractors are starting to pull permits now to start work in the Phoenix market. Permits for over 60 sites have been filed. S4GRU Sponsors can see maps of the sites where permitting has occurred here: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/2877-new-building-permits-for-phoenix-upgrades/ Work will be starting in Phoenix soon.

Sprint LTE Coverage Maps via Sensorly

Problem with map fixed. For some reason, I didn't have the ability to post HTML in my own forums anymore. Robert -
Shentel Upgrades listed on Network.Sprint.com
S4GRU replied to Boosted20V's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
No. It's been since about 6-8 weeks. Now if they would only show nTelos sites too. Maybe they will when they begin NV. Robert -
Shentel Upgrades listed on Network.Sprint.com
S4GRU replied to Boosted20V's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
I use the Sprint network site to locate Shentel sites for our maps. I only get a list of sites upgrading or upgraded from our Shentel source with site names/numbers. So these maps have been invaluable to marry the two together. Robert -
I only see the one Voice Upgrade still. Robert

If you are ever able to send me more ID's of In Progress sites, I'll be happy to add them. You can send them via PM. Thanks! Robert

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

T-Mobile Announces HD Voice Calling available today
S4GRU replied to leozno1's topic in General Topics
In my area, with the Nexus 4, I can only get HSPA/HSPA+ in the dark green (excellent), I can get a weak outdoor signal in the "very good" range. I do not get any 3G/4G in the satisfactory or good range at all. I don't know if it is a radio performance issue with the Nexus 4, or Tmo grossly overstates its 3G/4G coverage. Robert EDIT: Also, outside of Santa Fe, all the Northern New Mexico HSPA+ sites are 500kbps - 2Mbps. So they haven't upgraded the backhaul at these locations. I't s a pity that my airlink is so fast, but drops to a crawl when it hits the backhaul. -
LTE Roaming On Other Networks May Be Influenced By The IPhone 5

I have two daughters who are in love with the Hello Kitty line. If I could only find a way to reduce my costs to the Hello Kitty hotline. Robert -
Sprint will start promoting its network when they feel that is beyond reproach from the competition. Saying, "our network sucks in most of the country right now, but we're good for it. Trust us" is something they don't want to be accused of promoting. Sprint needs to wrap Network Vision as soon as possible. And when there is a solid 3G network and LTE coverage at 90% of the Top 50 cities, then they need to promote the hell out of it. Robert

I don't know why, but there are less sites in the Bronx than Brooklyn, Queens and Manhattan. So it is farther along even when starting at the same time as the others. Staten has the least sites, but it started last. Robert

I just got word of two more sites being accepted today. One near Hammond, one along I-55 on the west shore. http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/579-network-vision-site-map-new-orleans-memphis-gulf-coast-east-texas-mississippi-and-louisiana-markets/page__view__findpost__p__89357 Robert

Work started in all the boroughs at the same time. If you look in the Sponsor maps, you can see they are working everywhere in NYC and Westchester. However, the crews in the Bronx are able to get their LTE sites up first. Work is still ongoing in Manhattan. There are more sites in Manhattan than the other boroughs combined. It will take longer.

Yes, definitely a weak and distant signal for you. But it's good you're able to get a signal that far away. Very good. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk

Yes, but it was not a full density 1900 deployment. But we won't fault you for having to do something that meets your needs better. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk

T-Mobile Announces HD Voice Calling available today
S4GRU replied to leozno1's topic in General Topics
I don't believe that Tmo is actively converting its EDGE coverage to anything. The remaining sites that are EDGE only are used to protect against roaming costs. In all Tmo announcements I've read they really push their upcoming LTE network and talk about how it is going to be deployed over their existing HSPA+ footprint. Never talking about any expansion of HSPA+ or LTE beyond their existing footprints. My only complaint with Tmo is hitting a data wall at the city limits. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk -
This is surprising. I've only heard great things about the LTE network in KC the past 2-3 months. Coverage sounds very good now and even getting denser. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk

We will probably come up with a transition plan to something beyond the Network Vision deployment in the next few months. Stay tuned. Robert via Nexus 7 on Tapatalk
