  1. I don't know if this was answered or not but I just happened to check sensorly and I see a whole lot more purple and my question is, the purple that is now shown on Bethel and by the Osu airport and in gahanna are them different towers or is it possibly from that tower on the NE side?
  2. I was over by that tower today and I tested out YouTube and It loaded with no problem and was in HQ and I also used my Spotify and changed to audio quality to extreme and it worked with no hiccups.
  3. Well that makes alot of sense that the past has hurt sprint in the eye of customers outside of data. Now back when I was in high school I did hear someone say that sprint was for ghetto people and I never understood why someone would say that but I guess before the merger with Nextel that Sprint had low requirements to get service so anyone could just sign up with them like you stated. Sprint has some good things from the past but I guess the bad overweighs the good. I was talking with my friend who has verizon and he told me whats the point of have unlimited data if it not too usable except at night. He said I would go to tmobile before I go to sprint and and tmobile has less coverage. I do agree with him on the theres not point of having unlimited if you can barely use it. But I just hope that once NV is up and more stable that Sprint markets the heck out of it because in a way it will be their make or break for them.
  4. I get the same reaction people dont see how I do it. People speak about sprint like they are last on the list and sprint always get the short end of everything and I just do not get why it is like that.
  5. I have a question, outside of the data issue, Why is it that people refuse to be on sprint? I have seen people talk bad about Sprint more than T-Mobile.
  6. Guys what is your opinion on SoftBank being in talks with T-Mobile as a plan B if in case sprint decides not to go with Dish (which I think is crazy). This really worries me my gut is telling me that sprint my actually go with dish which would not be a smart move in my opinion. http://www.phonedog.com/2013/06/07/softbank-said-to-be-in-talks-for-possible-t-mobile-deal-as-backup-to-sprint-transaction/
  7. This is getting ooc now. Dish is never this desperate but I guess they are. I do not care too much anymore about how the whole sprint/clear/softbank/dish thing plays out. Its just too much going on lol.
  8. I was in the same boat as you in January and I decided to do the upgrade now program. I traded my iphone 4s and a galaxy note 2. The actually process the do it the rep ended up messing my account you and stuff so I was in the sprint store longer than I was suppose to. He had to put a dummy phone on my account for some reason idk. But honestly I would just wait until yuo have your actual upgrade for 1. it was go wayyyy smoother than my experience and 2. by that time you will be able to see what all phones are out at that point and time and 3. Youll be able to keep your S3 and if you want you can revert back to it if you want. I miss my 4s and wish I didnt give it up and i find myself using my iphone 5 and keeping that note 2 in the box.
  9. Thats what I was starting to think of was throttling. When the data is working really well them people will begin to use more. I think that if it did come down to sprint slowing speeds it will probably cap at 5gb. Because sprint has practically a new network that will still need work to make it really stable throttling would be a idea but idk all of that remains to be seen
  10. What kind of speeds were you getting?
  11. Honest opinion, once sprint is near complete with the Network Vision build out do you guys think that sprint will still offer unlimited data? I know with lte comes increased usage and because of that do you think sprint may turn to data limits to keep the network from being hit to hard?
  12. I WANT LTEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Oops!

    Im in the same boat as you are with the roaming except ive used 2.3GB of it due to me having to go to Wilberforce OH a few times a week which I will have to do throughout the summer. I didn't notice I was I saw my data was working and thought hey sprint must have worked on the towers here in the sticks. But when I logged into my account and saw how much I roamed I called CS and asked about all my roaming and the lady told me that my amount was ok I had nothing to worry about. So if I am cool you darn sure are. I just cant wait till we get lte in Columbus Ohio.
  14. So based on all of this who later down the road from now will be in the best position? I do not want Sprint to fall behind again when they chose to do the WiMax thing.
  15. No It is on the east side off of Refugee Rd
  16. On my way home the sprint tower on courtright had workers at the top adding the new panels . The pic is blurry but it was the best I could do driving by
  17. Thanks I tired wifi and it was just fine. But it makes a lot of sense but yet its crazy at the same time cause there isa tower not even 1 minute from me but that wouldn't go for much specially when you have numerous people using it.
  18. Quick question. I do not know if its a phone related issue or what but I noticed the past 24 hours that when I am streaming music on spotify that my phone gets really hot and my battery draining faster than normal but also the app will stop playing and and connecting. Is this all because my phone is searching harder than normal to get and hold a 3g signal due to the NV work being done?
  19. No I just happened to look over at the tower and saw it in passing. Its the tower thats behind that barber shop 2138 courtright rd.
  20. I got some updates well two updates. The first one is I work in Whitehall and on the way home I always drive down courtright and on the sprint tower that is on that street I happened to look over and there was the new cabinets but not installed. The second update which is the biggest I think is on the south end of town which is where I stay I was heading to the bank on lockbourne and Marion rd and a full fledge crew was working they were digging into the ground and everything and the new cabinets were also mounted. Heres a pic of it. I tried to get the pic the best way I could.
  21. They look like the new cabinets but I wonder if they have started to plug them in?
  22. I also tred Facebook Home on my Note 2 and after 5 mins it come right off my phone. I think its a great idea but its just not for me. I dont want to see everyones posts on my lock screen. It is adding like a extra step in accessing my apps. But I wonder after a month because its constantly updating what the data usage will be for it?
  23. I hope this week will bring some sight of advancement with NV in Columbus!!!
