There's been quite a few WCS permits posted too, at least for St Johns cty. http://webapp.sjcfl.us/Applications/WATSWebX/Permit/BLPermit.aspx?PermitNo=11607674&PopUp=1 http://webapp.sjcfl.us/Applications/WATSWebX/Permit/BLPermit.aspx?PermitNo=11607569&PopUp=1 Note these are AT&T but still interesting, considering a lot of devices don't have support for B66 yet. -
Does LTE discovery support this function? Which app is it?
-
This is a good question. I can't seem to figure it out in the hidden dialer menu on my S7. Maybe there will be a better indicator on newer devices as they come out.
-
Sprint's definitely going for the long term. I just don't think anyone wants to purchase the company with all of that debt, which is why they're lowering network spending to pay it off. I could see Comcast or Google buying Sprint in the future. T-Mobile merger is unlikely I think.
-
The original idea was that they were going to use wireless microwave back haul instead. Sprint doesn't have the capex to upgrade GMO 3G only sites in these rural/suburban areas where their market share doesn't justify the cost. It's still probably going to be 2-3 years after the fact before those sites get LTE.
-
Unless it's in an area where Sprint has high market share (urban), I wouldn't count on it anytime soon.
-
Looks like Sprint's data speeds went down in this half of testing. http://rootmetrics.com/en-US/rootscore/map/metro/jacksonville-fl/2016/2H It does look like Sprint's call dropped/blocked improved though. Wonder if that has anything to do with the change in the amount of customers on the network in the area. EDIT: T-Mobile's call performance went down quite a bit. Looks like they need B12 to offset these issues.
-
Satellite back haul? Aren't satellite based ISPs really slow? How will this work? I assume a jump in latency would be a given.
-
It's different if they aren't pursuing permits in the first place. [emoji28]

Via https://twitter.com/NevilleRay/status/789617173807321088 I'm keeping an eye out for any B12 sightings. Soon!
-
Excellent. This makes it a little more worthwhile. I'll probably wait for a sale though. From the initial reviews, it looks like battery performance is pretty good.
-
They should have just advertised that there's a soft cap at <insert quarterly changing number here>. Advertising "Truly" Unlimited when it has limits really is false advertising.
-
T-Mobile has a lot of B66 Spectrum than just NJ. http://maps.spectrumgateway.com/t-mobile-aws-3-spectrum.html

On the Google Specs page.

I wish this was 4x4 MIMO capable.
-
Today I have been connected to Band 2 HSPA in Jacksonville, FL. I've always connected to Band 4 HSPA+. I wonder if they're regarding for an additional B4 5mhz carrier? They already have 20x20mhz here on B4 and 10x10 on B2.
-
I think it is. I have had nothing but a great experience with my GS7. The Edge is very popular as well.
-
Looks like Samsung wants to hold onto their market share. They're offering $100 bill credit if you trade in your Galaxy Note 7 for another Samsung device. http://www.theverge.com/2016/10/13/13267674/samsung-note-7-refund-exchange-official

Well, okay. Let's go over this. 1 million customers free users with 3GB data each is not an issue, but grandfathered customers that have been with Sprint for 5+ years paying for it is an issue? As far as Capex goes, Sprint has the lowest out of the big 4 and is now giving away devices/service for what? Tax breaks? Goodwill? I'd rather them increase ARPU, focus on network upgrades and improve what customers are paying for. Sprint's not a Charity, is it? I might just want to add a quote as well.
-
It's actually a smart move. What exactly binds the new owner from just leasing it to somebody else? Contract? This sounds similar to what T-Mobile did when they sold their cell towers off a year or two ago and started leasing them.
-
I figured I'd chime in here. Sprint does not have enough B41 live nationwide and they also have the least amount of cell towers/coverage. I feel like in their financial predicament, they should really focus on the upgrades instead of giving away service to users that aren't going to pay for it. I'm surprised AJ hasn't chimed in on this yet, considering his stance on people that have device subsidies.
-
I think I connected to a B12 site downtown briefly, but it could have been a false-positive (going by SignalCheck Pro). According to Neville, Jax should be lit up sometime in Fall with B12.
-
I wouldn't expect Sprint to announce that. [emoji28] Usually Marcelo's "hyped" announcements are lack luster.
-
That's a lot of spectrum! And it's deployed already!
