Interesting... LOL   I caught the "AT&T 4G" on the phone at 1:50-1:53     

Ha! I didn't notice it... man.. what were they thinking. It's file footage I assume, but didn't someone check to make sure those are sprint devices at least. 

New video Sprint just put out, pretty interesting.

Hey crimsonknightdx you dropped off the grid? Haven't seen you on the sponsor colorado thread for a couple of days... Thanks for all of your postings on sights. I've been working the south side of town. Santa

Santa,

I am still here, on both, been reading the threads .. you guys are pretty busy on the south side. I haven't had the time to go tower hunting yet. Pretty hectic here. I am very excited to see you guys spot these upgrades, and to see the clusters starting to come on line!   Just hoping here on the north side of Denver it starts to pick up shortly.   Band 41 on 104th and Federal is a tease, hope I see 25/26 soon, especially in Niwot and Gun Barrel. 

Not sure sure what band this is, but it has me really excited for things to come. At Wadsworth and Belleview.

This is band 41.  Band 25/26 max at 37Mbps.

What is with the cartoon birds? This almost seems like a joke.

Twitter?

Agreed. An American version of SoftBank! I'm not liking it. Someone needs to be smacked!

They aren't bad.. but they could be better. I think they are better than what they are currently running.

Hmm.

 

Exactly what I thought too.. when I saw Sprint upload these last night.  Though.. I wish it didn't have to be a Hamster. lol

A lot of people who use Boost or Virgin are too "poor" to afford home broadband.

Yes, that is true.. but the network cannot handle the stress..at least not right now.

Don't think I have ever seen 4 bars of LTE in this location from the Fredrick LTE tower. Usually 2.

Could it be that your voice signal was roaming but you had a native lte signal?

The weird part was, before I took this screen shot, I was getting a real strong LTE signal in this location, where I normally do not. So that was also strange. You could be right, the extended is the voice. Normally I get full 3G signal in this location, than the bars went to 0... they were all blank.. and it kicked over to extended 3G.... and than Extended LTE. I took the screen shot as soon as I could, and as safely, since I was driving still.

So this happened this morning. My phone went to extended LTE ... I didn't know that was possible .. Since I haven't heard about LTE roaming agreements being made.

That's one of my biggest problems with the article.  The buildout in the core of Denver began last year, not last week.

Correct, I am wondering if they misinterpreted something here, and as I took it.. Denver saw the final stages before sites are being accepted. 

If you love lots of misinformation. Remember, that's why he left. S4GRU tolerated his misinformation for awhile, but when he was challenged with facts he ran away.

Exactly what I mean, Robert pretty much summed it up. 

So we can say Merlin was a great benefit for us here in Denver? Anyways I think we will be up and running before June.

If you want, its your opinion. 

Just saw this on the Denver Post.

Thank you for the article. A good find! Really detailed, and more in depth than Fox 31 did. 

"Sprint LTE is fully available in 340 markets nationwide, including Colorado Springs. The buildout in the core of Denver started last week. At each cell site along the route, the company is ripping out old equipment and replacing it with new gear.

"We're preparing so we can ride out the next 10 years with the system and continue to upgrade," Smith said.

He said Denver will receive Sprint Spark, the carrier's super-high-speed service, in the third quarter of 2014. Initially, Sprint Spark will deliver peak speeds of up to 60 megabits per second, with potential to reach a whopping 2 gigabits per second.

Read the KDVR article... Dave Mellin.... Mellin, Merlin? Think on that.

 

Glad to see positive news coverage for Sprint. We need it bad.

Yea, thinking not. 

I thought I was going to be able to take selfies and post them on Facebook via Sprint Lte this weekend.

I know I am so shocked that Merlin's prediction wasn't correct again... Nope .. Wait.. I'm not.

Emmmmm...BeauJo's. I'm glad to live in the only community outside Colorado to have a BeauJo's.

I'm glad I am not the only one that drooled a little bit when I saw a post mentioning Beaujo's .. Mmm! That's pretty sweet you have access to one. What an amazing place.

Yes, WiFi calling is going to be supported for certain Android devices. I don't remember which ones are supported off the bat.

Can we make an honest assumption and assume this will be an android only feature, something iPhones will not see?

I wonder what is going on with it? It's lte for awhile.

Maybe they are adding some B41 or 26? Who knows.. could be just maintenance too. 

Honestly I was surprised for about a minute. Cause everything else coming out of his mouth was incorrect so then I realized he just doesn't know. Nothing I can do besides tell him to do research on here. Not upset. Anyways I drove by the tower that gave me no service last night and everything seems fine today which is good

Yea, the towers will probably be fluctuating with service on and off at times, due to the NV rollout in the metro area. Saw something similar in the area of my job, right before the accepted LTE on the tower north of highway 52 and Weld County Line RD. 

Looks like we are close to seeing some clusters going online, with everyones reports in the thread.

Oh this will maybe help how uneducated salesmen are. He said Sprint was doing all the nv. I said no. Samsung is for our market. I named the others also for other markets. Anyways he goes Samsung? What? So that's what's out there trying to sell.

Does it surprise you? It really shouldn't. Than again, I am not saying it shouldn't make you upset either. 

It's sad. He tells me it's cool that I'm a advocate for them. I said I don't have issues with them. Yes my patience run thin but I know what's coming. I told him to go here and get done education

Right, and the thing you have to realize, is that we are just a small percentage of customers out there in Sprint, that have some information to the NV Rollout that is a little more in depth. Most of Sprint's customers don't care, they just want it to work, and they will believe a sales rep with the Sprint logo attached to his shirt at face value, because they have no interest in researching.

It comes down to, does it work good or doesn't? If it doesn't, they will tarnish Sprint and tell their friends and family to stay and way, and go with another provider. That is just the way it goes. It is very frustrating, I know. 

So I have a salesman man for all the carriers that's telling me his Sprint reps said that nv hasn't even started in like the Broomfield area's. He said middle of this month. He is telling people not buy Sprint service. But this is a guy that says the past three days he didn't get lte at work. I said I have had past three days and right now so not sure what your problem is. Anyways it's just sad that the Denver market is losing subscribers left and right and there is allot of misleading and then false statements out there. I try to explain but they don't care they jump ship. I'm sure this was like the same in other markets before lte went live. Just wanted to share and see if anyone has anything to say about what Sprint is doing so I can explain And reassure people. I told them the obvious and to go to this site.

I am not surprised at all. A lot of information out there is incorrect, and in his position, and many like him are costing Sprint subscribers in the Denver Metro area.
