  1. I know that my post isn't related to the LTE rollout but I just purchased the Note 3 and for some reason the screen does not wake up when I receive a text. My brother also has the Note 3 but on T-Mobile and his screen lights up when he receives a text. I spoke to both Sprint and Samsung and none of them seem to be aware of the issue. Thoughts?
  2. Things seem to be changing for the better with Sprint. I noticed when I came into work yesterday, I had LTE inside my building which I have never had before. I ran a few speed test and averaged about 12 down and 2 up. The highest was this morning with 22.89Mbps down and 4.6Mbps up with a ping of 41ms. Very impressed! I work in Maitland off of Keller Rd.
  3. Thanks and that's good news. I can't seem to find the link where it shows the percentage of sites completed/launches in the country. Can you post that here? Thanks!
  4. I also picked up some LTE starting from West Colonial and Hiawassee until about Raleigh St. Ran a speedtest and it was pretty fast. Here is a link to my speedtest. http://www.speedtest.net/android/468623068.png
  5. I have good news for whoever lives in and around Metrowest close to Conroy Windermere. I got a second 4G when I looked down at my phone while at Turkey Lake Park. I also saw a West tower communications pickup on Hiawassee Rd going towards Conroy Windermere Rd. I also noticed a quick second of 4G while on I4 just leaving downtown going East earlier this morning.
  6. I took a trip to the Walmart Neighborhood Market and my service was the same as before. Very poor signal with 3G only. Do you think maybe they were just testing it because like you said it's a deadzone for Sprint in that area.
  7. You are picking it up at the Walmart Neighborhood Market? Ever since that place opened, I have been a frequent visitor and I am lucky if I barely have a bar much less any 3G service. I last went there on Friday night. I plan to go again this evening so I will check it out.
  8. This is great as I literally live in the Montevista Apartments which is just a couple of minutes away from that park which I go to very often to play basketball. I will more than likely go tomorrow and check it out. Your speeds aren't great at all. I wonder if you are connecting to a tower that's further away.
  9. I live off of Conroy Windermere in between Kirkman and Turkey Lake Rd. My service was really bad last night around 9-10 PM. It kept going in and out of roaming even though I was in my apartment. I would get text messages that people were calling me and it wasn't even ringing on my end. I don't know how the data was affected if at all because I was connected to Wi-Fi. I don't think I am close enough to this tower to pick LTE anyways
  10. I hear you. I did receive LTE in the Auburndale area while driving to Lakeland. The speeds were blazing fast and I had it for about a good 10 minutes. I just hope that that kind of speed and service comes here to Maitland and Orlando.
  11. I work in Maitland so I constantly check for LTE but the closest that I have seen was at exit 92 for Altamonte Springs and the speeds were terrible which leads me to believe that the tower was far or still being worked on. I do get excellent 3G though with full bars. I used to get full 4G WiMax with my EVO 3D.
  12. I don't get that. LTE had to have been turned off when I went a couple of weeks ago. If I would have picked up LTE, maybe my battery wouldn't have died so quickly. I didn't even have service while waiting for most of the rides.
  13. Thanks! I was just at Disney a couple of weeks ago and the service was horrendous to say the least. I have a Galaxy Note 2 and my battery almost died and my 3G was non existent. I was very disappointed as I've read posts about others that they were able to receive LTE there. I would have to assume that it they were not lit up when I went.
  14. Have you seen any work in the Universal area? That's where I live and I constantly check for work on the cell towers around here but have seen nothing so far.
