  1. Thanks for joining S4GRU. Hope to see you around! Robert
  2. That's exactly what my order says now, the same as yours. Robert
  3. It is possible that it is the GS3. But this device has been on the schedule a long time. Since this document is dated April 11th, it is possible that the GS3 did not get put on the schedule until some time after that, and that would make the referenced device in the schedule yet another S4 LTE device. I'm not ready to make a determination which device it is yet, and it very well could be the GS3. Thanks for your post. Robert
  4. by Robert Herron Sprint 4G Rollout Updates Tuesday, May 8, 2012 - 12:12 PM MDT We let the cat out of the bag a little early yesterday in a screen shot from another article, but Sprint 4G Rollout Updates can report to you that a new mystery device (currently codenamed NDA #105) has entered Sprint's Lenexa Labs for testing. S4GRU has actually known about this device since February, but now that the source has approved the release of the documents, we are reporting it to you. What we know is that the device must be a high end flagship device, because it sports the uber powerful Qualcomm S4 Snapdragon MSM8960 dual-core chipset, like what is in the new EVO 4G LTE. This chip is often touted to be equal or better than their upcoming quad core competitiors. We also know that it was scheduled to begin Sprint lab testing yesterday. And we also know it is targeted for a late summer launch. Most likely in September. Screenshot of the Lab Schedule. These are the LTE capable devices scheduled in the lab through summer as of 4/11/2012. The device most likely is either the Sprint variant of the Samsung Galaxy S-III (which is being rumored that the American LTE version will have the S4), or possibly a new successor to the Motorola Photon with LTE (which is also persistent in the rumor mill). Some even speculate it could be a new Windows Phone, based on the new Apollo platform. The timing feels pretty good to speculate on the Galaxy S-III. However, it's interesting that credible rumors of a new Sprint Moto product started breaking around the time that engineering samples of this device were showing up at Sprint Corporate campus. We may be able to rule out the Samsung soon should it be confirmed that the American LTE version gets a quad core. So if I were forced to wager a bet, I'd go with the new Motorola Photon LTE at this point. But that's just speculative on my part. Also of note is that Sprint is also planning to release a Data Card in September that is capable of running on both Sprint 4G networks, WiMax and LTE, in addition to 3G EVDO. All we know definitively at this point is what is in the images here. Our source cannot even shed any further light than this. Stay tuned.
  5. That mystery device has been on there several months. This is something Sprint has planned with the OEM a long time in advance. Robert
  6. ATT's Stephenson makes more bonehead statements: http://www.bgr.com/2012/05/08/att-google-android-updates/ Now he is blaming Google for the slow roll out of OS updates of ATT Android devices. He cannot accept responsibility for anything. Amazing. Everything is someone else's fault. CEO FAIL! Robert via Kindle Fire using Forum Runner

  14. The map shows that sites will start come live with LTE in the LA Metro market this month. It will be many months for Alcatel/Lucent to be able to complete the market. Robert
  15. My speed on replies is highly variable. You just are catching me at a good time. Any donation to our PayPal account upgrades you to the Sponsor level. You get access to all the Sponsor areas of the site and help pay our costs to keep us online. Most donate $20-$25. However, if you cannot afford that much, we will still upgrade you. There is also a Premier Sponsor level which gets you access to NV schedules for the markets in the first two rounds. That requires a minimum $100 donation, but you get to keep Premier Status indefinitely. Sponsor status is only good for 6 months without another donation. Thank you for considering to sponsor S4GRU. We are completely member supported. Robert
  16. Madison is in the Sprint Milwaukee market. It will get LTE deployment at roughly the same time as Milwaukee. Robert
