  1. I guess I've never experienced what you do with calls. I always hate when I call my sister who has vz in Burlington wi cuz it's almost hard to understand what she is saying but on the other hand my mom with Sprint its crystal clear now with he voice. Must have something to do with codec between carriers? Any who I was quite impressed with Sprint these past months if only the tower by my work would get lte and 800 voice. But 3g runs fast there so can't really complain. Edit: How is lte in Racine? Pretty reliable? I've went out there a couple times and it always seemed pretty good.
  2. But really my point was just how much convincing it took for her to spend $5 extra dollars. And that's at Home, could u imagine anyone spending more money on more mbs for mobile if some are barely willing to at home. Where there is more devices that need more speed then ur Cellphone will ever need.
  3. The average consumer knows nothing of data speeds. Case in point: I had to convince a girl at work to spend the extra $5 on home internet for the upgrade from 5mbs to 15. Not realizing 5 mbs with 5 people with multiple devices probably wouldn't cut it.
  4. I have to say it was leaps and bounds better then last year. Stayed in the wilderness just like every year moved around the Dell's a bit too and didn't lose lte once the whole time I was there. and data was always more useable then the hotel WiFi. I don't know what happend this past year but the wilderness's WiFi has gone to hell. But where the WiFi failed Sprint picked up the slack.
  5. B41 in the dells along with b26 not optimizeD. havin a great stay with the family and Sprint is stay in strong
  6. I don't know I love WiFi calling. Even though I have great service at home it extends battery life like crazy. And it works great on my one max.
  7. It would also be different if it wasn't such a hassle to get rid of it. I had to call over a dozen times for it to get taken off then another 5 or 6 calls when it still showed up on my next bill.
  8. I actually think the nexus 6 is completely compatible...
  9. B41 on 120 between east troy and lake Geneva had -120 dpm and still got 10 down
  10. Could this be the result of sprints "shotgun fire" deployment ya think? Not able to tune neighboring sites right away?
  11. Ya I figured but I didn't know with the constant stream if that would change anything
  12. Hey just curious about sosomething with these single path devices. I had an s3 before my HTC one max and I used dual window a lot on lunch to watch YouTube and txt at the same time... I wondering if that's still possible with tri band phones. Have an upgrade soon and just lookin at my options.
  13. Same here in central wi... Have to drive 2 hrs to get to a corporate store :/.
  14. I honestly wish t mobile did move into my area. They are roaming here... Would give us up here more options. Our options here are att, Verizon, cellcom, and us cellular all with really high prices and t mobile would be another nice cheaper option.
  15. Maybe cuz even without the extra coverage it still give more capacity. Adds twice the capacity if there is just b25 in the area.
  16. So then a user on t mobile (being throttled) wouldn't know it unless they checked their account. And wondering why does it say 20mbs when I can't even watch YouTube! Kinda makes em look bad too. If you ask me.
  17. Had b41 at red lobster in Racine today! My first time. Was running 39 down 14 up at about -105 dBm was very nice. It's definitely spreading
  18. I know the feeling on my HTC one max i swear I rarely have more then one bar. And even on b25 with one bar in my unloaded town I get 15megs and up sometimes anything above wat seems like -95 dBm is one bar. Which is just weird it doesn't make sense. Edit: and on a side note it's kinda funny when my mom goes to make a call with 1 bar and then it jumps to full and she gets all confused. "Why do I always have 1 bar when not using my phone and full bars when I call"
  19. Tri band devices must be going out in full steam. Last time I went to six flags b26 was buzzing at 3-6 mbs, depending on where in the park. This time it was usable in the morning but as the day went on it become unusable. But 3g was just fine. They need a tower closer to six flags so b41/b25 will reach the whole park. And btw worst trip to six flags waited in line 2 and a half hours for goliath just for it to break down. I was not a happy camper. Haha
  20. I get this on my one max also every once in awhile clear app data and chache should fix it for a week or so...
  21. My phone seems to be allergic to b26 sometimes. It will prefer a strong 3g signal almost every time. Even if the b26 I get is very usable. I don't get it. Haha
  22. Yea it is pretty cool. Only downside is now he is home 2-3 nights a week. Soon he will be gone for 12 days home for 3 gone for another 12. And when my sister graduates he Will be gone for 3 weeks at a time but then he can bring my step mom along. I'm going to recommend they switch to a more national carrier. Because he Will be out of us cell coverage quite a bit.
  23. Well he is an owner operator at a traditional trucking company now. But now with his new job he will be from what I understand he will be working directly for Harley Davidson. Delivering bikes across the country to dealerships. So he will own his own truck but drive for Harley.
  24. They must have adjusted the towers here in baraboo no more b26 at my mom's cabin . But 3g is better then before at -90 which I'm totally okay with. Still rough Getting anything inside though. But that's all carriers.
  25. Well thanks for all the responses and I know this should be in a completely different thread all together but okay he has decided to go with a tab from us cellular and get a bluetooth keyboard. Now my question is my dad goes a cross the country but before data didn't matter because he never used it. But now since he will and us cell doesn't have coverage a cross the US how is us's roaming set up? I know in Chicago my little sister gets roaming evdo I'm guessing from Sprint? Just a question on how he's data experience will be in none native areas. Because with this new job data is a must, so just curious I know evdo would do just fine for him, but in the long run would it be better for him to jump to Sprint/att/ Verizon?
