Obviously, Sprint's rural network will not surpass VZ or ATT for quite some time (re coverage), if ever. If Sprint continues with their best-in-the-industry roaming agreements, who cares? However, Sprints network is in the best position to outdo the other nationwide carriers (VZ, ATT and, T-Mo), and (significantly) outperform the competition in urban areas. Only time will tell if Sprint will be succssful in implementing the aquired assets (via Clear, and even Softbank) they now posses. Sprints 1x, frankly, dosent care about statistics/speed tests that so many people get lost with arond here. The fact of the matter is, Sprint is sitting very pretty right now in regards to finance; and, it's highly likely they will hold their position on this pedestal for quite sometime. Some users may be unsatisfied with the rate at wich Sprints NV/LTE is being deployed but, Sprint does have far more to do at each individual site (38000+ of them) than their competion. (Sprit is now essentially building an all new network, from the ground up). Also, considering Son's cash influx and buying power, I don't think I'd have any doubt in NV regarding Sprints rolout rollout. (NV is the real deal). All this bing said, we've still got the 4

Blue One on the way? http://phandroid.com/2013/08/29/blue-htc-one-sprint/

If its in good condition and has a clean ESN, that's a steal.

Doubtful, This thing is old. I think this is CDMA, WiMax, and LTE 1900. Not Tri-Band LTE. "...connectivity to Sprint’s 4G LTE, 4G WiMax or 3G CDMA networks." http://www.franklinwireless.com/?doc=bbs/gnuboard.php&bo_table=news&page=1&wr_id=17 Edit: Specs: "Bands: 800 MHz/1900 MHZ (CDMA), 2500 MHz (WiMAX) and 1900 MHz (LTE)"

That's the one!

Exactly what I was thinking the other day... I better bring my Mossberg next time I'm around here. If I venture out, I'll definitely be doing it before dark.

In that case, Josh is right. He's pry better off selling his Apple device privately.

Speaking of this site, has anyone tested it (or will test) tonight? I tried yesterday. If I don't hear any reports today, I may swing by a little later if I'm bored..

Yea, I've found Sprint to be very generous to long-term customers with accounts in good standing.

Josh, I'm not trying to stick my nose where it doesn't belong but, as your cyber friend, if by "school refund," you mean student loan money, be very careful with that sort of thing. I don't think this requires a a trade in of any kind.

I say we start a S4GRU donation for Robert to pick up one of these budget spectrum analyzers (similar to one that was going on for his LTE hunt in Denver), since I'm sure he could put it to good use for us all. If others think this is a good idea, I'll be first in line with a donation towards this.

I was thinking the same thing! I find it interesting that the OEM's that I've had the best luck with in the past (any Moto and the OG EVO) are now not very good RF performers and, the phones that used to suck (Samsung, LG) are now great RF performers. It is for reasons like this, I am finding it harder and harder to have any loyalty towards one specific OEM.

Wow, Those are pretty good stats!

one week isn't anything to get worked up over.... yet.

AJ never jokes around, J. Never. Ever.

i hope this thread is a joke. If not, Sprint really just have deployed 8.7G.

Sounds like some old figures ya got there. I think Sprint said around 8Bil at the start of NV. Then they raised that figure shortly thereafter. Then SoftBank came along and double-downed.

Is that what we refer to in AZ as Spanglish?

I do give you credit for that!

Even your son wont pick up anything other than tri-band, huh? Even if it is his "dream phone?" I see you've trained him well!

I don't really run many speed tests, as you can see but, I think my recent speed test results from random places in North Phoenix show that Network Vision is for real. I'm really excited about what is happening here!

Very, very interesting. But, personally, at this point, if it doesn't have tri-band LTE support, I'm not interested!

Nice Work! Thank You, Josh and Dave!!

You're a man who is very dedicated to Apple! Enjoy!

Out of curiosity, in the event the "new" iPhone does not support tri-band LTE on Sprint, would you really be willing to pay Apples inflated prices for such a handset?
