Why is the scan times so long compared to an android phone?

The amount of time it takes a modern phone to reconnect to LTE after dropping you CDMA is not related to the phone. Sprint has implemented ORNL network-wide and that should be taking care of CDMA-to-LTE handoffs. 

Yes.  I'm not sure why, but my phone seems to more aggressively hand off to 3G now than before.  There are no 16port antennas in my area.  If they are going to be firing up VoLTE soon, they better figure something out quick or 'call metrics' are going to tank QUICKLY due to dropped calls when LTE drops.

Sprint is ending its $15 unlimited plan promo this week

So it seems that Sprint is ending this promotion this week and according to them its because of high demand. Say what?
Can someone explain to me this reasoning? If the purpose was to bring in new customers to the network and the promo is successfully doing that due to its high demand, why kill it? Things that make you go hmmmm.

Doesn't matter now. At&t is allowed to get Time Warner with no conditions.  That Tmobile merger is basically guaranteed at this point.

Root scores seem very nice!!!! But they seem inaccurate from my seat of the pants use ha.

New Promotion starting Friday (tomorrow):

USA Today: Sprint's new $15 per month unlimited offer hopes to lure in switchers
CNET’s take: https://www.cnet.com/news/sprint-gets-even-cheaper-with-promotional-15-unlimited-data-plan/

I see more mass upgrades by TMO on 600mhz -- it seems they did an amazing and fast roll out. If I recall folks here thougt TMO wouldn't be able to see much strides for a year plus.

Reason I bring it up is TMO can't have much more free cash than Sprint. Yet can operate fast and lean.

Positive note Sprint has rocked it's upgrades this past year...

Those chairs don't look all that comfortable.

I'm getting lost in the CT siting website, looking for Fairfield county permits. Any way to look up permits by town ?

Something to think about; I noticed that Walmart's wifi network throttles Amazon.com to a slow crawl. Makes sense if you think about it. It discourages customers from scanning a bar code and finding it cheaper from one of Amazon's many sellers. 
I definitely do not see Walmart as a a store that would be willing to host Magic Boxes based on that fact.

Tmobile is 30 billion in debt and less then 2 billion in cash on hand, so how is this merger talk going to happen, with unicorn horns and Fairey dust. Sprint 36 billion debt and over 6 billion in cash on hand. Then realize the cost of Reconfiguring, and you get nothing but headaches. Don't forget the spectrum financial plan that sprint just initiated to.  

Everyone I think this time it will happen

Sprint definitely has work to do but they are improving. However, they should set their sights on being a AT&T competitor based on these results.

There are currently about 6,000 employees at Sprint HQ in Overland Park, Kansas.

3rd party.
Super ugly store too.

Looks like Dish is starting to move on things: https://www.fiercewireless.com/5g/dish-allocates-up-to-1b-for-wireless-network-buildout-through-2020

Love my X — but either selling it or leaving sprint. The radios in a it are inferior especially if you frequent fringe areas. Mine can’t lock onto LTE. Where as an s8 does.

I highly doubt Apple will incorporate hpue. Especially if it’s Qualcomm related but not sure if it is. Sorry.

Sprint has their work really cut out for them this year. They are making a lot of big claims with what they plan to do this year and next. I just hope they follow through and either meet or exceed. Given their track record with promises, I can believe most are taking it with a grain on salt until proven wrong.

He’s referring to this leak: 
 

It looks like that reddit leak was spot on with regards to spring's network plans. Well, except for that before and after map.
