  1. And that is why I am glad not to have Those style sites here. We have plenty room for old fashioned Towers here
  2. Well at the Sprint store today I saw several 4+ line switch overs. The manager on duty said they have been getting a lot of large groups moving over with the new share plans. I think they may be gaining sub's this quarter!
  3. Looks to be a decent RF performer. Hopefully should be around Nexus 5 RF wise.
  4. Well I had a gs4 a year ago, and they never had any issues doing an advanced exchange at the Sprint store. And that was with custom Roms. If you go in with software glitches on a custom ROM, they will deny you most likely. But say if the charging port went out, they will careless about a custom ROM.
  5. 1x800 from this site gives me better than -90. But what baffles me is there are two sites 4 miles away.
  6. I get 1x1900 as low as -95 here normally from said site.
  7. #newdayformaps would be nice to see him respond to my tweet to him regarding to the maps in general
  8. Doesn't Suddenlink have service there? Maybe it was round rock I was thinking of, but Suddenlink was in trial of 300mbps internet near Austin.
  9. Is it me or does the use of Collapse , in your quoted text, make it seem like it was Sprints only lifeline? It uses a hidden negative to still downplay Sprint. Calling it a collapse is a bit harsh, more like it was a withdrawl because Son Was smarter.
  10. Well most people will use the lowest tier since it is plenty. But if the price was right I'd sign up if it was fiber!
  11. It could be fiber to the Home. But idk if $250,000,000 will be able to provide Fiber to the home for that many customers.
  12. Adding more fiber to nodes, along with more nodes. Docs is 3.0 is capable of over 1gbps.
  13. So Suddenlink is on its road to offer widespread Gigabit per second Speeds to its coverage area. It offers tiers of 15,30,50, and 107 Mbps currently, and the new plans would start at 200Mbps(old 15 Mbps plan) and 1Gbps(old 107 Mbps plan). What excites me is suddenlink has laid so much fiber the past week. I have seen myself 2 separate crews. Running new fiber. And Tyler Tx is a Major data hub for Suddenlink. Anyone else have suddenlink for Home Internet? What do you think? http://www.cedmagazine.com/news/2014/08/suddenlink-begins-gigabit-upgrade
  14. Band 26 -110 signal for me has less speed than, band 25 -110. I believe it is like that because more people are being moved TO band 26. But band 26 does perform decent here, At home I just got a -111 signal (with the Booster) from a site 14 miles away, as the crow flies.
  15. So in a turn of events one tower in Tyler Tx changed to a TAC of 7956 for b25 , 8526 for b26. Just one tower. 7956 was our previous TAC we used here. Also our PCI reverted to a previous set.
  16. weird b25 was worse with this for me. Band 26 us around 10-15 dBm better .
  17. Well Ill take the +10Dbm gain I got from this device. It works well in fringe areas, in Town with decent signal it isnnt bad, does extend the range, and such, just No need for it in town.
  18. I know it isnt Scientific, but it does seem to have a decent impact on Signal, and usability! Speed test comparison same spot, with/WIthout Booster. With: Without:
  19. I used it at home where my m8 only gets b26 in a rare occasion. With the Wilson sleek I got a -108 on my car will take screen shots at home in LTE only mode. With Booster: Without booster:
  20. So I picked up the Wilson 4g 460007(also referred to as 460107). Got it for under $100 at best buy (price match). I checked the specs which does not cover Sprint b25,b26,or b41 LTE. But I have actually seen an increase in coverage and usable signal in areas with almost no signal. How is that possible on b26, if the device specs state 824-869mhz regarding band 26? http://m.bestbuy.com/m/e/product/detail.jsp?skuId=3610007&pid=1219092581508&pcatId=abcat0811002 https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/ViewExhibitReport.cfm?mode=Exhibits&RequestTimeout=500&calledFromFrame=N&application_id=304712&fcc_id=PWO460007 Edit New link added: http://www.wilsonamplifiers.com/wilson-sleek-4g-23db-amplifier-kit-460107/
  21. Speaking of ads, I heard at least 3 Sprint commercials on the radio in 1 Hour of driving.
  22. More poking fun at the "what if..." Ideas. Always am the "what if..." Guy.
  23. Shouldn't the zombies be ripping out the equipment, Carly rides in on Band 41 bike, and Marcelo Jumps on ?
  24. I meant sprint offer that not T-Mobile. But it does stick you with a possible hefty phone device cost. Not always but can. But it does leave Verizon out of Those T-Mobile sub's(which is not a bad thing). It allows them to go anywhere, but doesn't a subsidized Phone? Just pay an ETF and you are good? To me it is better dependent on how long you've had them. If you have them 3 months for T-Mobile, making the minimum Payments on your phone , you could be stuck -$500+ in the hole, compared to a lesser -$330 in the hole. But opposite happens when its closer to the end of 2 years
  25. Maybe so but what if ATT sucks in your area? You can't just take it to any carrier. You are stuck. Yes currently sprint will buy your contract, which may actual reap a huge benefit if this happens. Just my thought is a 2 year contract isn't as bad in my view, as device installment plans are also good. Customers should be given the choice. Maybe something to look into Is a device give back program on contracts, where sprint waives a majority fee of cancellation if the device is returned unharmed, in sellable condition. I'm sure a system like above could be possible.
