  1. If Detroit is officially launched this is a joke! .89mbs to 1.5mbs a second most of the time on 4g. Sometimes I HAVE HAD 8-9mbs. Occasionally I have had 12-19. And, even once when they put up the first tower in Plymouth 28mbs. Other carriers are getting 30-40. Plus they still have a lot of holes were towers need up grade. Any one been to a well established Sprint 4g area? Is this what Chicago or Atlanta are like? Please tell me that this isn't what we have been waiting for.
  2. Around Christmas 2 sites in Canton, 1 in Plymouth, and a number around Downtown Detroit went live with LTE without much fan fare. It was nice getting good LTE Downtown for new years! Hope that is a bit of a ray of hope for you.
  3. Site [site ID redacted] in Redford is broadcasting 4g. I mapped on Sensorly. Also, I saw a crew start working on 42.31124752651582, -83.48781622439463 in Canton, MI today. They were digging a trench from the telephone lines to the cabinets below the transition lines with the antennas.
  4. drove by a site in Canton that it looks like work began on. it is on Canton Center road by the post office on the electrical transmission lines. They were digging a trench from the telephone lines to the equipment at the base of the tower. Also, 4g dead spots in the Middlebelt I96 area by my work were not there today. Did the wind blow just right or did anyone notice anything new in the area?
  5. Just mapped out Telegraph, Beach Daily, Inkster, 7 mile, and 6 mile in Redford. Then 6 mile over in to Livonia. I think there is a new tower there. Mapped 6 mile, Levan, 5 mile, Merriman, and I96. Then I took M14 out to Godferson and zig zag back roads to Canton. I had hits out there I did not have Sunday but could not locate the source. May be something in progress in the Plymouth Ann Arbor area? Also, the Ridge Rd tower on the Canton Superior Township boarder seams stronger now.
  6. The Ridge Rd site in Superior Township south west of Cherry Hill Village in Canton is live. I mapped it out some on Sensorly.
  7. I think the Ridge Rd site south of Cherry Hill Village in Canton is up. Had a strong signal today there were it is normaly is not. I didn't get it on sensorly cause my battery got to low and it stopped.
  8. I have not experience trouble with the Play store on LTE. Many others have reported it in post though. I can tell you I have had oddities in it downloading as of late on 3g and wifi. In fact I just was downloading some updates. Two went fast. Two were very very very slow.
  9. Got a decent signal in Inkster on Michigan Ave. for a bit. I drive though the area often and this is the first time I pick up something. So I would assume something new is around the area. I tried tracking it down on some of the mile roads to the south of it and didn't get anything.
  10. Right after my post above I got 4g in Livonia on Middlebelt about 5 mile to 6 mile. I have not had a signal there before, even after Southfield went up. Have to try mapping out the Farmington area tomorrow.
  11. Could be from Southfield. The signals can go a bit of distance in the right conditions. Hopefully it is a new site.
  12. The tower on Newburg RD south of Cherry Hill at the railroad traks was being worked on when I drove by today.
  13. I figured some place in Detroit was going up when i got 4g downtown this past weekend.
