Calling Plus (VoLTE "Lite")
derrph replied to burnout8488's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
I picked up a galaxy s8 today and I’m having a issue with the calling plus. I have it enabled but when I place a call, the calling plus icon disappears. Any reason as to why? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
I view Marcelo the way I view John, brought in to perform a task and then are to move to the next mission. Plus Son really likes Marcelo and it shows because MC is on numerous boards for the companies SB has bought parts in (which will probably be MC's next move). Once Sprint is really stable and is killing the market, that's when Marcelo will leave and a long term CEO will take over.

I would assume them decommissioning that tower would take a blow to coverage in that area and a waste of money since they did a full build out on that tower as well. So I would guess it's Sprint just beefing up the network in that area. I would keep an eye on that location for sure. Its great that you're seeing a lot of activity going on in El Paso!

I'm on iOS and in my exp, Sensorly has worked best for me. All those you listed are great options.

Thanks! I thought that this would be a great time to start back up again and bring back more life to this forum like the old days lol.

As of recently, there has been a huge uptick of work being done in many markets. It seems as though Sprint is putting the pedal to the metal with the network. I do miss the high activity with posts, mapping screenshots and etc that was going on in here during 2013 -2015. Anyways, with all the work that is currently being done, I think its a good time for us all to start mapping again where we discover new and or improved coverage.

AT&T selling off 1,000,000,000 dollars in 600 MHz licenses

For the the jury is still out on 600. T-mobile has a serious obsession with Verizon. They may get close to the coverage that they have but where T-Mobile still fails at is their reliability which I have yet to understand as to why at this point. Something in me feels like when 5G starts to roll around, I think think Sprint will be one of the carriers that’s going to shine and will be one if not the fastest. I feel as though For them to deploy 5G, they will have an easier ride since their 2.5 is suited for it. No one is from the media, other carriers or their subs will admit to this but Sprint is definitely the carrier to watch for going into 5G. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Sounds like they want to get the network where it can complete and then they’ll go back and make the changes. Gain trust and then go back and upgrade. It’s sorta like what tmobile is doing. Some b12 only areas they will go back to add other bands at a later time. Because they have the trust of their customers, they can do that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Quite possible yes in hopes that a merger between the two would take place. That is indeed interesting that Carter did say that. It was like he was almost saying that as Sprints network gets stronger, they really wouldn’t need anyone else let alone another carrier to merge with. They have the tools to go it alone, the ability branch off into different areas outside of cellular with their Spectrum and will be more than fine. I did see that in the article there was a mention that an M&A is still an option for T-Mobile. Realistically, couldn’t T-Mobile go it alone? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I got the same by my friend one time. One day that same friend and I were waiting in line for entry into this concert and she couldn't even pull up her social media or webpages. Where the venue is located, there are also a lot of bars and stuff around that people go to on the weekend. Now my data service was humming along with no issues. So I made it a point and pulled up the same thing she was trying to so she could see it. I then made a sly remark and said " I can turn on my hotspot for you since my service is working." So she ended using Sprint service while in line, The same service she laughed at. I thought it was pretty funny. Too, I'm in a pretty good market that Sprint can stand its own. I would welcome a name change but I too have to think, how much of a difference would it make? People will still see it as Sprint. I think the network will need to be extremely together first and is actually competing with the other 3 from all aspects before a name change takes place.
