  1. Just done a speed test in Berea and pulled a ping of 1735! and 0.15mbps down and 0.21mbps up, dang i want LTE so bad. T Mobile will get lte in SC before sprint probably lol
  2. I have the PRL 2000 and where i work, in a metal building of all :/, i get no signal on Sprint, none at all and it will not roam it will keep trying to get Sprint signal, killing my battery. I go into work usually with 80% left and after working for 5 to 6 hours ill have 20% left. Will a new, when they push it, PRL help? or just to do with them working on towers in my area.
  3. Greenville, SC my Note 2 updated to PRL 2000 the other day and seems fine but its on eHRPD:13 and when i ask it to update PRL it says "there seems to be a problem please contact customer service, or try again later" I have not seen any improvement of signal around where i'm at i usually get 1 to 2 bars and data is very slow, but im hoping thats because of tower upgrades that are happening. But my question is the PRL 2000 normal or just something off the wall random, ive done some reading on it and its interesting.... and a buddies Galaxy S2 is on PRL 31104 but hes on Boost.
  4. Yep :/ also has anyone updated their prl? Before mine was 550?? something now its 2000 even, when i first did it i was like uh ok? but no real improvement to be honest.
  5. Well Sprint announced new LTE cities the other day and some that were to get LTE in the "coming months" and still none in the SC market, even near the beach(vacation time). I'm hoping that when the issue with Dish and Clearwire gets settled sprint can focus on their LTE and Advanced LTE tower upgrades.
  6. I loved lte when i went through KY, TN, and NC but coming home to slow data and +1 for the slow text, my dad and i have been having issues sending text (Galaxy S2 on boost and Galaxy Note 2 on sprint respectively) I know i don't get good signal at work because of its metal building but Verizon gets signal pretty decent inside, mostly 4G LTE and even when it drops to 3G they still have faster speeds than me. Yet when i walk outside weather its the front or back door, literally a few inches out i get good signal. Im hoping that Sprint will (soon) announce cities that they will be lighting up LTE soon, and even better if they say Spartanburg and Greenville.
  7. Anyone having up and down signal? Sunday before i left for KY i had little to none, even after i left work were i get nothing, still had little signal. My dad who has Boost Mobile(Galaxy S2) had the same problem, my brother-in-law tried to call him because he thought our corvette was gone but never got through, not even to voice mail. Today i have had pretty good signal all day, i have been listening to Pandora for 2 hours doing yard work (and if anyone needs a good Bluetooth headset get the LG tone plus its amazing) and it never skipped a beat, usually it will lag after 3 or so songs and take a minute or two to load a song but it was snappy. After i got in and took a shower i was curious and ran a speedtest, i pulled a 99 ping .93DL and .85UP, not bad but while i was on the way to and from KY and hit a few 4G LTE spots i pulled a avg of 10DL and maxed around 20! then i came home and was like but i know it will eventually get better, but when? Just checking to see if anyone has heard any new updates, info, or rumors.
  8. So far today i have 1 bar as usual but on data it keeps erroring or i fails to load anything, ive been on wifi since im off work today, which means almost 20mbps haha but i hope its because of upgrades :/
  9. Sweet, i hope its a good sign that NV is getting moved into Greenville. I've had up and down signal for the past few days but i kinda figured it was the random storms we have had. Hopefully the end of July rumor for Greenville getting 4G LTE, and hoping better signal.
  10. Heard someone talking about it in a store and was thinking hes bsing with his friend. Don't know 100% but you never know...
  11. I missed going to that race because of work :/ but i hope the rumors of 4G LTE by the end of this month is true but like Darkenv2 said im going to take it with a , good sized, grain of salt.
  12. There Chicken Biscuits are awesome, spicy yet good(i tried grape jelly on one and its not too bad try it) plus a Large sweet tea and their seasoned fries are good..... I think we turned this thread about SC market into a thread about who has good chicken haha but its worth it
  13. About the network lol, i love the spicy after i ate it the regular does not taste the same now. But anyway I seen the eHRPD: 13, what dose that mean as far as signal stuff? I done a quick search while at Fatz waiting for food and seen some results saying that the tower my phone is connected to has been upgraded to the new stuff and just dosent have lte turned on yet. True or not true, thanks. P.S. Sends a Chick Fil A Spicy Sandwich to Robert for lunch.
  14. Yeah she lives off state park rd, i was at the Chick Fil A at Cherrydale after work today for a spicy chicken sandwich(licks lips) and got a little over 1.0 mbps down and .8 up. I went to Hamricks off Whitehorse rd and got almost 2 down and 1.5 up but i was literally 300ft from the tower haha. I looked in my settings last night while at supper and my network type was eHRPD:13 and done a quick search while waiting for my food and some said that it means the tower that my phone is communicating with has been upgraded to lte? Is that true or just talk? Either way im hoping its not long until we see upgraded NV 3g and later 4g lte.
  15. Yeah i got those speeds in Walmart haha, and i work at the Oreilly's in Berea. I guess its the metal building but once i walk in the store i drop to 1-2 bars and when i go in the back part i get nothing period. Its not a big deal but a friend of mine who lives by Cherrydale gets no signal period, neither do i when i go visit her. Not sure were the signal drop happens because i dont use my phone while driving at all so i cant say for sure where it just drops but at her house even on the deck we get no signal. We have called sprint and emailed them and they told use that all the towers are working fine and theres no upgrades for the Greenville area at all. Im just hoping it comes soon, even if they fix just 3g to pull 1+mbps down and good signal everywhere i would be happy.
  16. So i went to Walmart in Berea yesterday and got over 1mbps download, i was kinda shocked at first then when i went home i got .3mbps down :/ and so far at where i work i have no signal at all, even roaming i get nothing.
  17. In greenville sprint has updated there little thing that shows what towers are goin to be upgraded and how(not when ) but theres 50 upgrades! 36 of which are data speed upgrades.... maybe 4g?
  18. Ive gotten a little bit better signal today but i havent went to work yet, i usually get little to no signal at all there. Sucks cuz we get busy for like 30 minutes then we want have anyone come in for an hour so we youtbe and everyone loves my Note 2 screen size lol but they have verizon and 4g lte so there videos load faster than mine.
  19. I've been told by a sprint rep that they are working on data/voice in our area (greenville) but the voice was done at the beginning of the month, and data would be done on the 17th(today) I'm hoping it gets better, 3g is just plain slow, 4g lte would be nice but SC is scheduled by the end of the year to be done.
  20. Yeah, i would be happy with decent signal, where i work now i get no signal at all. I would like to have decent 3g for now i can, kinda, wait for 4g lte. Just going up to Charlotte last Saturday for the big car show i loved 4g lte, i maxxed at 9.09mbps down but averaged about 4-6mbps down, it was pretty sweet. I just dont like how Sprint is kinda behind in terms of 4g roll out. Well at least i have unlimited data (: sofar this month over 1.5gb.
  21. I was told today by a sprint rep at a store that by the 17th of this month sprint will be dont updating the network in the greenville area, hope its lte.
  22. Ill be going to Charlotte this weekend for the huge car show and am going to love 4g lte while im there, im gonna do a few speed test just for the hell of it, ive read somewhere that SC 4g lte rollout should be done by December :/ i know a lot of sprint people that will switch before then.
  23. What about Greenville? My 3g hasnt been good the past day or so, took 30 min to update a app of 40mb. Im ready for 4g lte!
  24. Im ready for lte in Greenville and around the Greenville Tech Barton campus.
