If it is not 

Then you shouldn't complain. 

That is how much Robert pays a month with all the devices he has on hand.   

 

All joking aside, my bill is currently at about $210 for 3 devices.

 

TS out (adding more devices) 

LOL I was just joking  

interesting just for tmobile

My bill? Too much lol 

I thought this was discussed before on here.... lol

You never know this may be really good choice for some 

 just got a tablet too lol

gsm is better in canada

Yea, in talks....

Sprint appears to be redoing the B41 Coverage map on a city by city basis.  Much more realistic than prior version.   Slight exaggeration remains in a few local spots, but this is far far outweighed by B41 that is not shown.  http://coverage.sprint.com/IMPACT.jsp?INTNAV=SJS:HE:Cov

We all know Sprint has a coverage map on there own page "http://coverage.sprint.com/IMPACT.jsp?INTNAV=ATG:HE:Cov".... I did not see any difference at all, they need a new "coverage check" map period!! At&t and T-mobile are the only ones that did a major redo, I wish Sprint would too!! 

I do agree with you on the "Slight exaggeration" however I feel with the "orange" 4GLTE (1900/800) its WAY OVER exaggerated!!!!

i ll try to...but the only reason why i made that comment is that they havent touched that tower since 2013

If its a Sprint tower I dont think this conversation belongs in this area, but I know how you feel. Theres a tower I pass by to a friends house that has not been touched yet either.

but i wish sprint would upgrade the tower near me...then i may switch back

give them time

where i live in new jersey sprint has zero lte on my area of town yet tmobile gets full service band 4 AWS and verizon and AT&T lack in speed 

cool

I travel up to Coudersport, Pa which is near Potter county, now there is a place where nobody gets service. Eastern, NC is a blackhole as well for Sprint and T mobile. 

I have relatives that live in Coutersport, yes no one really is there LOL 

I couldnt agree more. The carrier is less on the hook, whereas I am completely screwed. I could sell my wifes iphone 6 and my 6 plus but I doubt I would be able to break even. But like I said, 12 months is more than enough time for Sprint to finish up around us and get the network complete. I want to be able to travel on 95 without hitting any 3g from NC to Pennsylvania. 

PA is good for all carriers on the east side, just be thankful you dont have to travel the west side between Erie and Pittsburgh or down 15 (PA/NY) border to Harrisburg, all the carriers are so/so.

I have been for the last four days at CES and Sprint has been very good this year. I had Sprint, Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile available and Sprint was the most reliable network.

 

North Hall: B41 (speeds between 12-30MB down)

 

Central: B25 (2-12MB down)

 

South Hall Upper/Lower: B41 (10-25MB down).

 

 

Verizon has massive issues and people had signal but could not connect to LTE. I have not seen any XLTE (aws) in Las Vegas so their main band is just congested.

 

AT&T had voice issues and dropped down to Edge several times too.

 

T-Mobile was giving free prepaid sim cards away (I guess they need it to beat Sprint) but their network was okay but speeds was between bad and ok, not very reliable.

 

 

Personally, Sprint made a lot of improvements and if they continue to tweak and improve it, it will be able to handle much more next year.

Thats just in one area.... Every carrier is different from city to city, etc....

Look on the good side, Sprint is STILL ahead of T-mobile    and shockingly this came from Cnet (which I notice they usually dont talk good about Sprint much I have noticed).

Also part 2: Best growth in years!! 

http://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/news/2015/01/08/sprint-subscriber-growth.html?ana=yahoo

I hope they don't sell TOO much of that spectrum though.  They should keep enough to have at least 4 B41 channels in each market.

thats what I am saying keep enough for each market then sell it

Yeah I can't blame them for considering selling some of that spectrum when it is valued so ridiculously high.

yea, but it would be nice for them to give more sites Spark (41) first before selling lol

Well this was a interesting find about Spark dated today 1/8/15

http://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/news/2015/01/08/sprint-2-5-ghz-spectrum-sale.html?ana=yahoo

I got a new phone, and have been seeing Band 41 pop up along the Lake Ontario State Parkway and 390

yup we all know Band 41 is around is Rochester, NY area lol

Hesse did a good job, his thoughts were there just couldn't get it executed... There was another company he wanted to buy and was shot down... Amongst a few bad decisions he wasn't that bad... Just definitely not the put on your gloves and fight type ... But more like a good boy

I know what your talking about the Sprint buying T-mobile thing. Thats something that boggles my mind about the wireless industry trying to consolidate, AT&T trying to buy T-moile would of been a messy thing but would of worked since they are both GSM.

Now the part that really makes no sense to me is the AT&T bought Cricket (CDMA), and the T-mobile bought Metro PCS (also CDMA) two different networks, different technologies that are NOT compatible. I get they wanted the spectrum but still just to me didnt make much sense, but I have my own opinions!! 

http://newsroom.sprint.com/news-releases/sprint-closes-on-21-billion-of-financing-with-three-new-vendor-financing-agreements-and-existing-loan-expansion.htm

Well thats good news at least, secure new contracts to keep the network going sounds like.

You mean "better than nothing."  But, remarkably, one month data rollover is better for a month, then nothing.

 

 

AJ

Thank you for the correction AJ

It's only 1 month rollover

better then nothing

True, from my understanding between their spectrum holdings and customer base though selling off Chicago (and St Louis) made financial sense though.

I guess to me that sale just never made full sense to me, why they would sell there home market, might of well of just sold everything to Sprint, but that didnt happen obviously lol.
