  1. Yeah that was one of my older post. That was a bit of misinformation on my part. I did not see all the panels when I first posted that info here because they pushed some of the panels back from their original position. So indeed my location had the same amount of panels as pre nv install but they were a bit harder to spot. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  2. Yeah you may be right..that would explain why there are so many panels up there. I just learned that sprint was up there because I saw the techs with their equipment in the lobby and I asked... They confirmed sprint nv is updated at that site..but they didn't mention if there were any other carriers up there. Here is another pic of just the ones on the right... To answer your question I used the signal finder app and noticed that I am not connecting to the panels on my roof but rather a site one block north from me with a signal strength of -75.

  3. Geez now that that's finally taken Care of, here is a pic of my newly updated nv panels on my roof upper west side...sorry these are the best pics I could get with my evo. Panels along south east and south west as well as panels circling the roof and more on the north east n west that you cant see on the photos Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
  4. Here is the answer to your question. http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/2120-listing-of-legacy-vendorsnetwork-vision-vendors-by-market/page__hl__%2Bnetwork+%2Bvision+%2Bvendor+%2Bmap__fromsearch__1 Post a little less and read a lot more. Trust me your questions have all been answered throughout this site. Do your research bro.. No worries were all hear to learn.
  5. Yeah open signal is the one that is unresponsive on my evo lte but ill try signal finder. Yeah agreed...Will do the legwork and see if im indeed connecting to my tower on my building..I can say my voice service works well in my apartment (all bars and even on the elevator) so i very well may be on that signal.
  6. Is there an app i can download (android) that will show which tower i am connected to? I tried one in the past but it didn't work. I assume that it will connect to another tower that is two blocks away when i'm in my apartment tho. I will do a signal strength test later as well.
  7. This should hopefully help clear up the confusion from some members here with the launch market theroy..As stated before the launch is just an official press release. This was taken from a sponsor in Chicago with inside info from December. Chicago was launched in December. Posted 04 January 2013 - 03:59 PM ~75% of the Chicago market towers have received NV upgrades of some kind, either 3G, 800 SMR, or LTE. ~45% of Chicago towers have had LTE upgrades. ~25% of Chicago towers have 800 SMR upgrades. This information is from mid-December, so the numbers may be slightly higher than that now. So in conclusion sprint will launch the market with a press release once enough sites have been enhanced but that doesn't mean that LTE will magically appear everywhere or get stronger instantly until most clusters are upgraded.. I recommend instead of posting hear say and speculation just read the other forums and RESEARCH. You can learn a lot from reading through this site..Me personally im more excited about the 800mhz switch for voice which will greatly enhance where we can get service on our phones and how strong the signals will be indoors. internet on my phone is bonus and it works well enough for me in the meantime. I will post some pictures tonight of my newly upgrade NV panels on my roof. There are about 15 panels up there and it was completed over a week ago and still no LTE or faster 3g but that is expected.
  8. Hey that map from what I can see is accurate. I would assume that the signal strength will be the the same once its completed.. my signal has been weak as far as 4g LTE because i Know the lte towers have been pretty widespread but once done it should improve. Only one tower out of the 4 in my direct area has 4g LTE live so the signal strengh is poor in my apartment but it should get better
  9. That boy curry went coco loso tonight...Felton is a bum

  10. Clears throat! Shouts at the top of lungs...follow the homie @BlexUpNext like the page https://t.co/fkLmARSj2i and follow @MrMoneyMARS

  11. "@MrMoneyMARS1: @TonyStylesNYC They just don't know this bowl is everything right" yurp...

  12. Yeah i feel for you bro...at least queens bronx and bk get upgrades quicker than manhattan...They should focus on trouble spots first then the rest of the market. Like 57th street in midtown is the absolute worst on the west side...Well patients got us this far..
  13. "@MrMoneyMARS1: S/O to my bro @TonyStylesNYC for sending me a new beat...looks like I'm working on tonight!!!! #WeWork " yes sir

  14. Yeah i dont know they may have had samsung empty boxes that had some equipment in it that that they were putting the old panels inside. Man i know half of the users on this site would kill to catch a tech in the middle of an install and bombard them with questions..i was caught off guard when i saw them in my lobby and couldn't think of all the tech questions I would normally have. lol
  15. Funny thing is i never knew my tower was sprint owned until today when I asked the techs....Never had any issues with connection before the upgrade...I always had full bars of reception in my home and even on the elevator. At night i would pull about 1.5 down and 1 up of 3g coverage before the upgrade but during the day 3g would be .50 down and up. It will be interesting to see what my numbers are like when they turn it on.
  16. they were working on my site for about a week and my roof went from about 10 panels to like 4..
  17. sprint towers on my roof just been updated to network vision..Tech's were in my lobby with tons of cable and samsung boxes with panels..I asked if they were done and they said sprint clear wire at my site was updated and would be switched on either tonight or tomorrow..80th & bway Manhattan...finally!
