  1. The back haul at sites are not in yet.. Here in Canandiagua they have to downtown tower broadcasting LTE but not the one uptown (which the uptown tower covers more territory but I am not sure why they did not get both in the city limits on around the same time...) I have very strong connections with a couple of Sprint employees and contractors I might be able to find out your area along with mine here in Canandigua). I asked about the pattern and Ive been told there is not a pattern really, again its just the awaiting back haul, and other things that need to take place first.
  2. Happy New Year to everyone I hope 2014 for Sprint is very good!!! Go Rochester, NY Market!!!
  3. WiMAX antennas are not all located on the same towers as Sprint thats why.
  4. I heard the HD voice with my dad for the first time today!! I have the HTC EVO 4G LTE and he has the Samsung Note II and we were both wondering why the heck we sounded so different. It dawned on me after we finished the call.
  5. Nice info Robert!!! Thank You!!! This MAY of answered somewhat of my question I emailed you about. Here in Canandiagua they got the tower downtown on NV/LTE but not the one uptown (just NV 3G) (the one up by where I live has a much bigger footprint then the one downtown tower).
  6. They did the downtown tower which covers very little (I noticed), the uptown tower is up much higher, I am hoping they get the 4G LTE on the tower uptown Canandiagua VERY SOON, I live near it (very close)!!! I am guessing this one is not ready just yet.
  7. Looks like most of the Rochester sites are finally 3G accepted/NV complete and with in the city... The only thing I see is the Bath/Corning area, still nothing yet.
  8. I saw that! I am glad!! Every time I passed though there is was 1X and that was last month (2013 we are talking!!) VERY frustrating (on I-90) from south Buffalo all the way to NY-PA line!!
  9. I live in Canandaigua, nothing here.... Oh and by the way no one commented on my post not long ago!! What the heck?! I quoted what I wrote about a month ago... I was hoping someone would have some insight on this... "Posted 08 September 2013 - 09:10 AM I should just mention I live in Canandaigua, NY the tower is on the north side of the city is where I live... (I live with in a block of the cell site, I just don't know how to find the cell site ID). I just went up to that cell site and noticed three (3) new antennas one for each sector (two antennas on each sector direction, one set points north-west, another points south- east, and last south west (all approximately)." I was unable to quote myself I tried "quote button and would not let me for some reason so I copy and pasted with time and date.
  10. Very strange to come across this here in Ontario County, The tower closest to me they had 2 antennas per side (one set north, another south east and the last set more west). The replaced the one side with the new panel antenna (weird looking because Sprints older antennas are very yellow compared to the nice white ones everyone else has)... Anyways, the other tower I saw they LEFT the other antennas alone and just ADDED the new antennas to each side in the middle... Now why they would do that to one tower but not the one closer to me... that boggles my mind, theres way more room the tower near me compared to the other one..

  12. Interesting the 3G speeds are better all the sudden, started this month (more recently) but no towers near me are even on the map yet... must be just a fluke at the times I just happen to do the tests... (I am in Ontario county). As of 1:58PM (today) 1.84 mbs down and 0.68 up, down load usually hovered at 0.80 and upload has never really changed stats between 0.65-0.80 up.. the pings are shorter now too...
  13. Buffalo and Syracuse are way far ahead of Rochester. (I am in the Rochester area well Ontario county).
  14. I have some connections to some information and alls I can say (because I can not say what I DO know exactly) is that ive been told the Rochester markets HAS to have a good 90% of its market have a complete over haul of its towers, Syracuse is gonna be online before Rochester or Buffalo. (Robert can correct me if I am worng).
  15. I hear so many mix reviews on reception issuses and awesome receptions on both S3 and the S4
  16. I tried posting this in a different form it got deleted , I don't this it was allowed in "market one" So let me try here... My question is does anyone live or Visit Oil City, PA?? I am going to get my friend on a contract with me but my question is about data/internet.. On the Sprint site it says 3G, but when I click 3G and more and says Nationwide Sprint Network (on network) a medium color purple. Is it REALLY SLOW speeds down there? I dont want him to get stuck with internet or try and watch a youtube video and it not work at all or barly... I need input please!!!! Thank you!
  17. Hi, I am curious if ANYONE on here lives or visits Oil City PA, me and my friend are wanting to get on Sprint contract plan toget, I live in NY State (near Rochester) I have 3G and Wimax. HOWEVER when I looked up his city/Zip code (16301), I noticed initally it says 3G&more, well if I click that its "Nationwide Sprint Network" (on network) medium color purple. Is internet/data REALLY SLOW there? Or is it not THAT bad? This is a serious question!!! (I am not dumb I just want some input from people that have visited there or live there). Thank you!
  18. Thats good for a big city like Atlanta! I am NOT bragging about how great my speeds I am getting but at least they are CONSISTANT. Its a decent alternative for when Iam out and about and not near wifi.
  19. Yes right on! I don't think I've heard many people getting constant speeds like I do that high, but hey I could be wrong.

    Wimax Speeds

    This is my averages (as seen below in the pics) the lowest I have ever gotten is 9mps dowload and the lowest ive gotten for upload is 1.50mps up. The highest download ive gotten once is 13.98 down and 1.85up. The cloest server to me is Rochester ny (about 30miles away) and Syracue server sometimes reads better and that is the second cloest to me (about 70miles away.
