How do you attach a file on this forum? Or should I just host the files somewhere else and link to them?

My tower tech friend was working on a tower by my mother-in-law's house and we had 4g most of the evening :-D I'll post screen shots tomorrow from my phone and my wife's S3.
-
I was in the Ashe bldg and now I'm over in Hecht. I just flipped airplane mode on and off and now I'm on eHRPD.
-
I just got much faster speeds on UM's campus than I was just a couple of days ago. No more eHRPD tho for some reason.
-
Definitely no LTE around the UM area. But I have an Evo so from what I've been reading on this site it would have to be over me before my phone picks it up :-P
-
Well here's something interesting. I was looking at the usage on my bill and it shows that my wife's S3 has used some 4g data this month. It was less than 1MB but interesting just the same. Her regular 3G usage is much much higher of course, so I don't know if the 4g usage is just a glitch or if she happened to pass thru a 4g area somewhere. I know my friend that's a tower tech has told me that several towers already have the LTE equipment but they aren't live for some reason.
-
The whole way up 826 and now in the Miami Lakes / Miami Gardens area and it's still showing eHRPD.

NewCo needs to drop some of the PCS from MetroPCS
Jaggrey commented on WiWavelength's blog entry in The Wall
Wouldn't the accumulated 1900 MHz PCS spectrum be a huge win for Sprint since that's what they're deploying their LTE on? -
Yup that did it. No improvement in speeds though.
-
Sweet! I'm still on EVDO Rev A up the road at the U of M.
-
Once Miami gets LTE it'll be another reason my wife has to showboat her GS3 over my Evo. Awesome.
-
So is it just a matter of lowering the threshold to match those of the other phones? Or has that been tried already? And does switching the phone to LTE only mode then lower the threshold since it seems to better hold on to weaker signals when in that mode? Sorry for all the questions... trying to wrap my head around all the technicalities.
-
Ah ok... just trying to get some understanding. I know the newer radios have "lowered the LTE threshold"; is that referring to how long it sticks with LTE before switching off to 3G?
-
So the Evo gives up on the weak LTE signal quicker than the S3, and the signal that the S3 maintains after the Evo gives up is mostly too unstable to be useful anyway?
-
Did each of the OTAs come with a new radio?
-
So lemme get this straight... when you switch the Evo to this LTE only mode, it performs as it should, similarly to the GS3? But when it's in the regular LTE/CDMA mode is when it chooses the stronger 3G signal over the weaker LTE signal?
-
Is the update out for everyone yet? I don't think my wife's new S3 has it just yet.
-
My friend has been telling me soon, within the next couple of weeks, referring to many in Homestead.
-
yea I just got the SanDisk also. Oh well.
-
lol.... Dolphins winning the Super Bowl. Every year one of my friends says that. He's a true fan I guess... lol. Robert... thanks for all you do and your dedication to us Sprint nerds
-
Ok cool! I look forward to seeing your findings (and hopefully good news for my Evo :-)) Why are you waiting for September for the LTE article? Waiting for the network to get the initial kinks outs?
-
Oh that must have been the last OTA that came out. Weren't you planning on writing an article comparing the reception between the Evo LTE, Galaxy S3, Photon, Viper, and a few others?
-
For whatever it's worth, a friend of mine (really, not a friend of a friend's cousin) is a tower tech that works for Ericsson. He said within two weeks they'd be deploying one or starting on a site in the area. I wish I could remember what parts of Miami he's in charge of, but good to know it's a work in progress. I'm hoping once it's up my Evo LTE won't have any issues connecting to it. What ever happened to that reception article Robert? Inquiring minds want to know
-
I actually have had one time where the phone just started rebooting for no reason. I was on wifi. Once I disconnected it from wifi it stopped rebooting. Weird.
-
Any timeframe on when it'll be ready?
