Have you tried different servers? Different servers yield different results.

So either I can't remember how to get to LTE Only now or its different on Marshmallow than Lollipop I switched to Marshmallow around the same time as this trip. I am not rooted and don't have my MSL so I didn't need it then.

So slightly off topic but drove out to Hermann just to see if LTE roaming on US Cellular was indeed working... Had to go to LTE only because my phone was still trying to keep a 1x800 connection speed isn't too bad either for roaming and being in a rural area... I have Signal Check on since Washington and went out Hwy 100 to 19 probably going down 19 to 50 then back to Union had a lot of converted towers that I don't have site notes for if anyone wants the log when I get done let me know

Mike, you should check out this post for its SignalCheck Pro screenshot of LTE roaming on USCC. From subsequent LTE engineering screenshots, it is band 12. So, you may have some starting info to get GCI to band detection working on USCC.

I also posted in that thread a screen shot roaming on US Cellular band 5

Did you map anything on sensory?

Didn't think about it

My adventure is over i believe I hit 3 unique US Cellular sites two were Band 12 and I was on that first site via all 3 sectors for a long time I did pick up a completely different GCI and I checked and it was Band 5 so I'll post that I guess for the hope that mikejeep can possibly get a pattern to identify... LTE Discovery did not show a band and surprisingly the only indication that I was roaming on the phone was "Extended Area" on the lock screen if you don't notice that or have something like Signal Check you probably wouldn't realize it

You should update your profile to let us know that you now are using an LG G4. If you still were using an LG G3 and had LTE roaming on USCC, that would have been remarkable -- because it would have required band 26 MFBI or illegal band 5.

 

Also, since SignalCheck Pro does not have USCC GCI to band detection, you should take a screenshot of your LTE engineering screen to check the band, either band 5 or band 12.

My signature says LGLS991 which is the LG G4 I'm using tapatalk so maybe my old phone is also posted on the site that I can't see

Okay I didn't even realize both of those things

I think everything is back to normal now.

I never disabled my Google voice sprint care on Facebook told me too but it's working now

 

Sent from my LGLS990 using Tapatalk

Its definitely a google voice problem somehow. I disabled gvoice at voice.google.com and i can make calls now.

 

Not sure why its working for some but not for others.

Did you try to re-enable it after?

 

Sent from my LGLS990 using Tapatalk

I do use Gvoice as well as my Mom and my wife. Theirs are both working though.

That blows that theory I can't call out but my roommate can customer care was supposed to call me back so I could try again and that didn't happen

Anyone not able to make phone calls this morning? 2 of us are getting "cannot complete your call, try again".

Do you use Google Voice? The voice on the recording sounds like the same voice for the generic Google Voice voice-mail.... I can call out using hangouts and I can call *2 which bypasses Google Voice

Same here I thought it was because I just paid my bill I'm on the phone with Sprint and they said it should be working...

 

My roommates LG G2 is working fine

I was under the impression that the plan wasn't offered anymore and our 4 line account went from a 10 line framily to 7 and now 4 so we went up $60+ this bill

Well I got a brand new LG G3 to load up all my site notes again once I have time to add to the database at home.

Right now using SignalCheck on an unrooted Samsung Galaxy Victory and the lack of information is depressing compared to the LG G Flex.

Crap I just realized with the mention of site notes that I lost my entire database when my flex died. Had the entire St Louis Market tower entries in the site notes pre loaded for B25 and had a huge dent in loading B26 and B41. When Best Buy Geek Squad approves replacement may have a new phone G3 or Note 4 since the Flex is out of stock for refurb and not sold in the store either.

I would consider the G3. Updated software from the Flex, good camera. Slightly smaller at 5.5 inches, but great screen. I get good battery life as well. The screen does pull a lot of power, but as long as you're not watching videos all day, it'll do fine.

I'm really thinking the G3 ($50 less) or the Note 4 ($50 more) bit I think the LG phones provide better flexibility

So it appears that refurbs for Best Buy for the LG G Flex are on backorder and if they can't get one within 14 days they will usually "junk out" and give me credit for the retail value to get a new phone. So they no longer sell the LG G Flex at the store so I will likely have to get a different phone... I really like the 6" screen but nothing else has that. What is everyone's current opinion for best large screen phone. It will probably be a week or two before I can get a phone back.

looks like I'm going back offline for a while. My LG G Flex is broken and going to be replaced via best buy plan but found out today replacement out of stock so it may be up to two weeks. Was using a Samsung galaxy victory on freedompop but the charging port had a meltdown so now have no way to charge the battery at 1% now. Later

I'm back to band 25 only temporarily. My LG G Flex had an unfortunate accident and is out of service until u can pay 150. I had this Samsung Galaxy Victory LTE laying around on FreedomPop so I will use this in the interim. Since I had used Google Voice integration I still get all my calls and texts

I live near Ronald Reagan in Lake St Louis and have noticed band 25/26 are becoming kinda overburdened all the time.

I'm guessing that's what the tr hughes tower is too then because it occasionally works and seems to be covering a good area considering where I pick it up compared to other towers in the area.

Anyone having issues today. Since around midnight I keep flipping to EVDO instead of LTE or even eHRPD this has been primarily in North County on the 270 and 70 corridors. I have Band 41 disabled because I found tethering wouldn't work when connected to Band 41. Also I've had issues on two different towers in St Charles County where the Internet was almost nonexistent on 3g and band 25/26 one was tr hughes and cool Springs ind in O'Fallon the other Lake St Louis Blvd and Ronald Reagan in Lake St Louis.

I love this site and try to support by giving knowledge anytime I can since I'm unable to financially. I'm in the middle of a divorce and lost my job of over 7 years so it makes everything rough. I travel around the Missouri market extensively in the St Louis region and even though I'm not premier I access a ton of Band 41 and identify a ton of Band 26 towers and send the info from Signal Check to a market leader from time to time to hopefully confirm the information if it had not already been confirmed since I have no way to verify. That reminds me I need to do that again since it's been a bit. This site is wonderful with information as I write this Signal Check has me on a Band 41 tower with - 95 signal in St Charles MO. Thanks for everyone's hard work and if anyone ever wants to give me a hand or hit me up for information let me know.

 

 

Edit: thank you to whoever donated in my behalf to become premier that means a lot!

My guess is this is MO B and MO 21 in Hillsboro MO the Band 25 does not have the PCI on the spreadsheet but is 3G/4G/800 so this band 26 is likely from the same. Captured at the Jefferson County Courthouse in Hillsboro and got band 26 already from the other Hillsboro tower as well

So Jessmann I took a trip out there today and found your mystery tower. If you go to the sponsor thread and look at the last update by lilg the tower was accepted on that one. However that tower is not broadcasting B25 but is definitely broadcasting B26 as I was parked under it with B26 turned off and phone wouldn't connect to it at all.

So my guess was right for the previously accepted 3G tower is pushing 26 funny no 25
