where did you see this?

If you become a sponsor you will be able to see exactly which sites were upgraded.

My S3 does the same thing except that when it goes to 0 bars it stops loading anything on the internet until it shows a couple bars again. It's really weird and annoying. It only really happens when I have 3 or less bars though.

Just got LTE in Ontario kinda near the airport! Mapped it on Sensorly so it should show up soon.Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

 

Nice! What cross streets? Live very near so I can also try some mapping!

Near Holt Blvd & Imperial Ave. It's a weak signal but I'm indoors right now and I usually don't get the best reception in this house. Hopefully I'll be able to map more when I leave.

Well, first off let me say that you probably do NOT want to do this. Manually picking a radio band forces your phone to use only that band until you change it. It kills automatic scanning for other bands, as well as autoroaming. This lasts until you switch back to stock and hard reset / reprovision your device.

 

At any rate, it's:

1) Open the dialpad

2) *#*#4636#*#*

3) Phone information

4) Menu

5) Select radio band

6) Pick your band. Cellular is roaming (usually), PCS is native Sprint, Band Class 10 is ESMR 800 MHz.

 

I also believe that, without something like Digiblur's modified PRL, or native coverage in the regular PRL, switching to BC10 won't help anything. Could be wrong, but that's what I experienced: forcing BC10 with a regular PRL did nothing but show "no service".

 

I don't know...? Right now my Ec/lo on 800 is -3.5 dB. I actually have no idea what ec/lo means.

I checked to see if I could even do it on my S3 but I can't. There isn't a menu after you go to phone information. It's okay though because it doesn't really sound like I want to do it anyway, haha. The modified PRL works well enough on its own.

koiulpoi, how do I find the "select radio band" function on an AOSP ROM? Hopefully it works on my S3.

I'm starting to see more LTE pop up in Santa Clarita which I've mapped on Sensorly. I posted more info along with screenshots in the NV sponsor map thread if anyone wants to check it out.

We were unable to accept your donation. I emailed you an explanation yesterday.

I didn't get the email. Would you mind please sending it again?

No problem. Welcome to the Forums, by the way. I drive thru Santa Clarita every time I go to LA.

Thanks! Haha, cool. Hopefully we will be getting more LTE coverage here soon.

If you didn't put your username in the comments section when you sent in payment, then email member S4GRU with your Paypal confirmation # and email address. He has been quite busy lately, so it could be why it's taking longer.

I put my username in the comment. I'll just wait if he's been busy. Thanks.

I've learned a lot from the site so far so I decided to donate yesterday but I still don't have access to the maps. Just wondering if it normally takes this long to be upgraded.

it could be your on the edge of the usable signal for lte

That's usually what causes me to switch back to 3G sometimes. I have a very weak LTE signal at home & I'll see it switch a few times a day.
