  1. Sprint is doing a lot of microwave backhaul in the Chicago market to fill in gaps. I keep watching for small little dishes on the towers in my town. ;-) Sent from my SPH-L710 using Forum Runner

  3. Still no update OTA. This is nuts.... Sent from my SPH-L710 using Forum Runner
  4. This could be because of two reason. It seems that the LTE Signal threshold, certain dBm where LTE would connect and disconnect, was set very very high, and the new android update on Sprint phones is supposed to address that. Also, they might just have the tower in some sort of "test mode" where the tower won't broadcast a full strength signal...therefore you wouldn't be albe to get a signal probably more than 1000 yards away. (nothing I just said has been verified, its just my educated guess)
  5. Been getting eHRPD in Wheaton/Carol Stream/Glendale Heights/Glen Ellyn area for over a month now.
  6. Chicago.....still havent received mine.... :-( Sent from my SPH-L710 using Forum Runner
  7. I feel for you guys in Chicago proper....I was down there this past Friday and service is THE WORST I have ever experienced. Couldnt even send a low quality picture via MMS.... Sent from my SPH-L710 using Forum Runner
  8. To piggyback on this question....in the Chicago market, I have had an instance where I was able to get a 4G LTE connection, but when I am connected 3G on the same tower, it shows EVDO not eHRPD. What does this mean from a NV installation stand point....? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Forum Runner
  9. Still havent received LG8. How is OTA order determined for updates...? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Forum Runner
  10. Connection was live this morning when I drove through. Wouldnt switch in its own. Only connected when I cycled to and from airplane mode. Was able to keep signal from Randall, driving east on 38 until I got to the River. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Forum Runner
  11. Double Post. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Forum Runner
  12. Easter Egg??! Go in to Settings -> About Device -> then touch on "Android Version" 5 or 6 times quickly. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Forum Runner
  13. Once the signal went away, I tried restarting and cycling as you described above and as everyone tries to do when in an LTE covered area, nothing came back on after 5:10ish pm. (quitting time?) When I initially showed 4G connection, I did a speed test right away, nothing fantastic and the test actually timed out. (4.00down and the upload timed out) after restarting the phone, I was able to get a solid connection and the screenshot above showing the 4G speeds. I tried to capture a screenshot with Open Signal Maps, but for some reason my phone doesn't like that program and wouldn't let me. On the map screen it showed connected to LTE service.
  14. Don't get me wrong, the headphones will work out of the jack...you just won't have any functions of the in-line buttons.... I have to ask though...whats wrong with the buds that come with the phone. I still use the ones from my OG EPIC 4G, they're not bad quality at all....
  15. I've had problems with non-Samsung parts. I even had to replace my universal car charger that wasn't Samsung. I have also noticed that after I unplug headphones, I have to pull down the top menu, and cycle through the sound settings to get all my ambient sounds to come back and work. Lock and unlock sounds, and selection sounds....etc.
  16. Its going to be interesting to hear what they have to say about the state of their "New 4G Network" when they have all their investors on the phone....
  17. I found this in the comments of the original article. http://ipv6.com/articles/general/Sprint-IPv6.htm
