    ShoaibK, S4GRU is not a Sprint complaint site. We do not allow rants, and your post violates our rules: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/1197-s4gru-posting-guidelines-aka-the-rulez/ Sprint is deploying LTE across its entire national footprint. MetroPCS, which is being absorbed by T-Mobile, is doing so only in selected areas that already have advanced backhaul. As such, that makes the Sprint rollout slower but far more extensive. If you want to follow the progress of Network Vision, you should become a sponsor: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/1195-information-about-s4gru-sponsorship-levels-and-how-to-become-a-sponsor/ On the other hand, if you want to be impatient and complain, then you need to take your rants and possibly wireless service elsewhere.

    Is "loose" or tight battery capacity better, David? AJ
  3. WiWavelength
    No, and I doubt that those will be added. Part 90 devices seem to be passing through the FCC OET now with only conducted power figures. AJ

    And as soon as minerals start using cellphones, you have yourself a business case. AJ

    Done. Say hi to mom and dad again... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLd9hjl3Kds AJ

    Ah, I saw that they were tempted, so they must have moved on to the next big thing. AJ

    No, from VZW, AT&T cherry picked only Lower 700 MHz B block licenses. Actually, I would have to double check, but a few C block licenses might have been included, too. But no A block licenses were in the mix. AT&T has intentionally avoided the A block to this point to rationalize its boutique band 17. AJ

    Sounds waves, just like electromagnetic waves, are subject to the inverse square law. Plus, we have that whole non smooth, curved Earth thing going on. Yeah, I really do not want to calculate the 125 Hz longitudinal wave path loss between here and Michigan. Let us just say that it is massive -- something on the order of T-Mobile signal path loss. AJ

    Wait, is it a required social convention to tip COWs? Is there a tip jar placed nearby? What is the expected percentage? 15 percent? And is that 15 percent based on pro rata monthly bill or actual usage that day? AJ

    Reps know next to nothing when it comes to tech issues, such as tri band LTE. You are wasting your time asking them for solid answers. AJ
  12. WiWavelength
    No, I cannot effectively yell at you. The path loss between Kansas and Michigan is too great. AJ
  13. WiWavelength
    AT&T does not hold any Lower 700 MHz A block licenses. To this point, it has avoided them like the plague. AJ

    The marketing logo for the Sprint One Up program has just been revealed... AJ

    Yes, it is the only way for Robert to save face. Now, who will volunteer to behead him in the process? AJ

    When posted here, every FCC rule point B in the CFR is cool. AJ

    Yes, I believe that is what the Pac-12 told the officiating crew after they worked the recent ASU game. I suppose I should, but honestly, I do not care. RSSI, Ec/Io, SINR, RSRP, and RSRQ are more than enough for me. One thing to add to this thread, though, is a brief definition of "ASU" for the uninformed. If I recall correctly, the acronym stands for Absolute Signal Units. That runs in contrast to most/all other signal metrics, which are relative measurements. Basically, it boils down to the difference between having your audio preamp or receiver display 0 dB vs 100 as the highest volume setting. AJ

    Whoa, not so fast. The MSM8974 (Snapdragon 800) internal baseband is the same as the standalone MDM9625 baseband, which is LTE Release 10 capable. Whether LTE Advanced features will ever be enabled in firmware, however, remains to be seen. AJ

    What, no Hot Pockets? Nothing goes better with high fructose corn syrup and only five percent juice than some dirty meat inside a pastry. AJ

    I officially dub using the backside buttons a "reach around." AJ

    In honor of Robert's move, a little bit of musical accompaniment. The song may be subtitled "Anthony's Song," but we will temporarily call it "Robert's Song"... AJ
  22. WiWavelength
    Do not scratch that itch. Rest assured, it has to do with partisan politics. AJ
  23. WiWavelength
    Roaming -- or its absence. AJ
  24. WiWavelength
    It is laughable that people -- especially "mom and dad" -- line up for a phone release. So long as it is funny, I will post it. Do you have a problem with that? AJ

    Greetings to you, too, Dave. I have not been to Iowa in a while, but I enjoy the state. As a former film student, I need to make at least one or two more trips to Des Moines to the Merle Hay Mall Cinema before it closes in the next year. And if I have something to say, I try to make it insightful, humorous, or better yet, both. AJ
