Mapped out some 4G around Cleveland on the way to Dayton. I was able to map out some points north and south of Dayton. When passing Campbell Station, I couldn't pick up any 4G.

Not until you said something. That's strange. When did you first see it?

 

btw, I was on Alcoa Hwy across from Hardees near UT Hospital last night. I was getting 30+ on LTE inside the bar. That new tower appears to be rocking right now.

Noticed it the day before yesterday. So the speed test that was done, was this before or after you had been at the bar for a while .

Anyone notice that little speck of 4G around Lenoir City?

Was picking up LTE off Douglas dam Rd in Sevierville didn'thave enough battery to map it but saw on completed maps that they turned one on in kodak.

First rule about mapping, you always have a charger with you.

What are some areas where you find strong 4G? I want to go there with my HTC One and see if I can get reception.

 

The reason I ask is that on my HTC One I can barely get 4G anywhere in Johnson City. I got it once when I was stationary at Taco Bell in Gray, and once while I was stationary at the Wendy's in Boones Creek. I have never gotten 4G while driving even on major arteries like I-26 or State of Franklin. Based on what I see elsewhere online it seems like he HTC One might have serious 4G/LTE problems with some areas of Sprint's NV rollout =/ I want to test it at known strong locations before I consider returning the phone.

I have the same problem, I thought it was my phone.

Mapped out some 4G around Dayton yesterday.

Just moved to the Tri-Cities area and man is this sweet. LTE all around town and the 3G isn't too shabby either. It's so nice to be in an area where the network works and it's only going to get better. So exciting

But, who is going to map out North Knoxville?

There is a tower between Amherst and Middlebrook that appears to be up and running.

Also I don't know if it's just me but the HTC One seems to be reporting lte signal strength properly. I noticed it downtown today and in Cleveland that the further away from the tower I got the lower the bars were with my evo lte the signal would almost always stay high regardless how close or far away I was. Maybe someone else with the One can help me determine if I'm correct.

I would love to get that phone, but the lack of an sd slot would drive me insane. Performance wise, how much better is it compared to the Evo LTE?

The tower at Gallaher view and Middlebrook pike had some shrink wrapped equipment on a trailer being unloaded into it this morning. I didn't have time to stop for a picture, but if I had to guess I'd say work will be starting there shortly.

I hope that wasn't the sewer company again fooling everyone.

Trust me, he doesn't get daily emails. And the only time one of the update emails had newer info than Robert was when he was out of town.

 

I also work for sprint in this market.

Oh I know, I only trust Robert.

Spoke with the manager for the Sprint store at Earth Fest yesterday. He said that 6 towers had LTE turned on this past week and that they were trying to complete the smaller areas first before they concentrate on Knoxville. Supposedily he gets emails daily showing 4G activation, I wanted to tell him I have Robert for that . We also talked about the HTC One and GS4. He did have a Samsung rep with him, had they been from HTC I would have given them an earful about the lack of a micro sd slot.

Was able to map out some 4G from Grenneville to Erwin taking highway 107

Drove through downtown twice today, no go on the 4G for me. On a side note, I think I will get the S4 instead of the HTC One.

At around 530 this morning leaving UT heading to Chattanooga I got 4g from the Alcoa exit to the 640 split and I've been told the tower in corryton that was marked in progress is complete my brother in law got 4g last night around 1130pm

It is like I am cursed, everytime I pass by a tower that is a work in progress, the next week they start broadcasting 4G.

Not picking up an 4g on my iPhone 5 yet, but I'm very close to the tower at Middlebrook and Gallaher View. I'll be sure to update when I see some activity at that location. Some Insituform drain pipe company has been doing some work there recently which was cause for a little false alarm excitement a couple weeks ago!

I pass by that tower everyday. I see the Instituform drain pipe company doing work after midnight, fixing out wonderful sewers here.

Drove through downtown, wasn't able to get a connection .Anyone else have this problem? I am hoping Sprint is blocking my phone and that there is nothing wrong with mine.

Drove back by and took a picture of what they dropped off and moved

Why didn't you install the equipment

LTE was turned on in downtown Knoxville today.

What?!?!??!?!?!

Those sneaky guys

So this came out today: http://www.engadget....geles-april-12/

 

In the image, the header states in bold that the announcement includes the Nashville market... but the list of cities affected aren't the Nashville market at all.

 

Memphis, Greenville, Tullahoma

 

Memphis is it's own market with Greenville and Tullahoma geographically far enough away to not even matter to the Nashville Market.

 

So what does this mean exactly? Maybe it was a typo and LTE will be officially turned on tomorrow for Nashville?

The Nashville market is Nashville and everything in East Tennessee.

Drove through Corbin, Barbourville, Pineville and Middlesboro, Kentucky today, picking up multiple LTE phantom signals. I was hoping to connect to LTE while in Middlesboro, but as a consulation prize, my 3G speeds were at least 1mpbs in all cities.

What has been everyone's experience with 4G inside of a building so far?

Finally got to take my trip up to Johnson City from Knoxville. Data speeds and connectivity are quite improved since the last time I took the trip, especially once you hit I-81. Definitely was nice seeing the the 4g icon light up for the first time. Ran sensorly on both an EVO LTE and a Note 2 which made me want to throw my EVO LTE out the car window. Having to airplane mode toggle it for it to pick up LTE is rather frustrating. The Note 2 had no issues picking up and maintaining signals. Once in Johnson City though, both phones pick up and maintain LTE just fine in the main area of town. It's quite nice and I can't wait for it to get to Knoxville.

 

Here's some speeds here in JC. Not some of the spectacular numbers I have seen but still quite good and much better than I'm used to.

 

DId you have any problems picking up and maintaining a 4G signal on I26? I lose my signal once I past the exit for Gray.

Knoxville! Finally! Now only if it could deploy around Pellissippi State!

Well look who is back

Nice to see them get started in Knoxville though. They have gotten a couple towers in Cleveland going and one that works apparently only on one sector right off I75 at 25th street. Hopefully they will start here in Athens next.

No one cares about Athens , Sweetwater is where the they need help .
