T-Mobile LTE & Network Discussion
Destroyallcubes replied to CriticalityEvent's topic in General Topics
True which could be the while reasoning of "uncarrier" attract a buyer, then jack up rates, cause not everyone can leave and be stuck with several hundred dollars of phone cost left.- 4,425 replies

T-Mobile LTE & Network Discussion
Destroyallcubes replied to CriticalityEvent's topic in General Topics
It may be a year or so, but long term is in sprints favor. Short term AWS-3 would help T-Mobile out , but long term that may hurt them in lack of low band.- 4,425 replies

T-Mobile LTE & Network Discussion
Destroyallcubes replied to CriticalityEvent's topic in General Topics
Hmm is it me or if Tmobile buys the AWS spectrum in the upcoming auction, where will they get Money for the 600MHz auction? Let T-Mobile over bid, go in debt more, and then leave the 600MHz for sprint to gobble up. They can't afford both- 4,425 replies

Sprint to enforce roaming data limits, send SMS notifications
Destroyallcubes replied to Rocket87's topic in General Topics
OK my two cents. If you need more data than 300mb of roaming pick up an ATT hotspot at best buy, and pay $35,iirc, and get over a 1GB of data. Pay less than roaming fees and no complaint about 1x only roaming. Or substitute it with a Verizon Hotspot. There are cheapers alternatives you can use. $25 for 1.5GB for Att. Why wouldn't you use that instead of expensive roaming. Get more data plus you can only activate it for those times you need it for vacation. -

Looks like sprint maybe expanding its tablet portfolio. The only this is there Is also a Tab S with an 8.4" screen as well(WiFi only). Maybe sprint will get that one as well.

In East Texas I've had Sprint roam on metropcs, and Alltel. Had a T-Mobile Sim in my nexus 5 and said it was roaming on Chinook wireless,which is labeled as cellular one. That is sad because I'm getting coverage from a roaming partner the next county over, with a farther tower, than I am with T-Mobile with a closer tower.

Cable Company Running new line/Upgrades
Destroyallcubes replied to Destroyallcubes's topic in General Topics
Hmm I was thinking they could be upgrading the fiber while connecting the two networks ,In city Suddenlink, to rural northland. I've seen so many spools if fiber. Just on the side if the highway up 2 miles from this spot is another spool, with line running to the pole. Must be approaching time to see better internet finally!- 14 replies

Hahah yeah right. Its Suddenlink. Tyler is their major data hub or something. We could be a test market, but I know it could be possible. Just they aren't doing any Fiber in the actual neighborhood subdivisions. That's the most costly part that keeps Suddenlink away.- 14 replies

Cable Company Running new line/Upgrades
Destroyallcubes replied to Destroyallcubes's topic in General Topics
I never saw a crew actually doing any work , saw the spool one spot going to work, after work it was a mile or so down, sat there a few days, and then disappeared. I just find it odd seeing addition fiber being deployed to an area if less than 1000 people(just outside of a 100k city). One single conduit of fiber should of been sufficient I think for our area? How many conduit cables are normally used?- 14 replies

Now my question is why do they need to run more Fiber, if they already have 1-4 strands up in the bundle?- 14 replies

What does a termination loop? That those oval things that have the cables spun around them in the air? I'm just confused because I haven't seen the fiber connect to anything in our area, and if it was just this one 2 mile stretch not sure our benefit lol- 14 replies

So I was driving to work an evening this past Friday, noticed a huge spool of cabling, with it going up to our existing cable company Lines. We had Northland here, bought out by Suddenlink. Does anyone know if this spool would be fiber, coax, or what. They also added in what looks like to be a splice box, which is sitting on the ground. Distance between two pictures was around 2-2.5 miles

Two Countries, Two Vastly Different Phone Bills
Destroyallcubes replied to sbolen's topic in General Topics
People pay more for ATT and Verizon service due to the fact they offer coverage on areas sprint only roams in, or T-Mobile has edge only or no service in. And those areas will still be there. It'll take sprints expansion to be able to truly say they have coverage on a larger scale. The CCA and rural partners will help that greatly. Also a big upsell Verizon and ATT have is also a wireline, and TV service bundles. Sprint should try and work with dish with fixed wireless(however they want) and bundle with dish satellite TV. For some people it would be a huge saver. And would probably benefit sprint. But they just need to be careful with how the do plans and pricing, as well as keeping unlimited from killing their network(if they go the unlimited route). Easy thing would be to throttle, or do a day time data limit, unlimited whatever at night past a certain time. -
multipost. When does alltels agreement run out?
-
Oh yeah I forgot Alltels roaming agreement stuck after Verizon got their stuff. Even though its Verizon, I'm roaming off them, thanks to alltel.
-
I could be wrong but I thought I myself was on just a plain Jane regular plan and I get EVDO roaming. Never had an issue with getting just 1x roaming. Idk if my target corporate discount has anything to do with that, but even before I put it on my account it had EVDO roaming.

"A Sprint comeback? Yes, it's possible"
Destroyallcubes replied to COZisBack's topic in General Topics
The only thing I understood fro.all of that was the last two sentences haha. What does this all mean? -
Well poor LTE strength can drain a battery. Poor signal strength in any phone can. It drains the battery more for a technical reason another member could explain easier. I'm guessing it is having to try and find better Signal more often, and is strained with lower Signal. Could be wrong.
