  1. Received some sad news today from an executive rep at Sprint for Yuma. No updates or upgrades are scheduled until 2017.. That's a bummer

    Thanks for the bad news...... That might influence my future with Sprint.......

    Sprint was doing so good, abet slowly.

     

    Lateck,

  2. Hypeo, I do not go to San Luis on a regular basis but I do go monthly. 

    I'll be down there later this week and I'll check for LTE with my Note 3. 

    And as for Yuma proper, I have not seen any improvement and even a little loss of LTE (4G) is many areas. But out at the college 4G is holding steady.

  3. Hypeo;

    I have done a number of Speedtests around my area of travel (in Yuma proper and out to AWC) and the best Download speed I got was 0.83 Mbps.... Upload was normally a lot faster at 3.75 Mbps. So, you are right were not getting good data.... (As if your wrong, :-) )

    Also, what current high end Sprint phones use band 41? (The new iPhones, I have read).

     

    Lateck,

  4. Hypeo you are partly right. I have a year old Note 3 and a two year old N2. Neither are "Tri-band". Not even sure if the N4 will be.......

    So how many phones are really ready around here?

     

    But I do hope your right. But I would be happy with wider coverage (say San Luis or YPG) and better 4G speeds.

     

    Lateck,

  5. I just saw a crew working on the tower over by 32nd Street and Ave A. I have a feeling we are going to smell B41 soon

    That's if your phone has B41......

    How many Sprint phones work on that band yet? And what about the rest of Yuma?

     

    Lateck,

  6. Have you guys noticed around Yuma a significant increase in your 3G speeds???? I'm getting above 1Mbs all over town..  4G still not up there but if you place your phone on CDMA only, you get some great speeds..   Over where I live I'm getting above 2Mbs..

    I don't do many speed tests as I get depressed with the results. But I'll try.

     

    Lateck,

  7. Hypeo you are very correct.

    I'm just saying that there is an improvement now then say 2 years ago..... With no 4G.

    When 4G was first rolling out the data was much faster then it is currently.

    I'm out at AWC a lot and Sprint's 4G is faster then the "Campus Wi-Fi" in most areas ( this is my un-scientific thoughts).

    Now the other company that starts with a V, is still light years faster.......

     

    So, I guess we will have to wait till the next decade for the tri-band "Spark"??? to have "fast" LTE.

     

    Lateck,

  8. Well, thank you all. It was so quite here the crickets even stopped. :-D

    Hypeo; thanks for the Somerton up-date.

    MTP85743; I hope the best for you. Sprint says it will be up-grading........ ?? :-)

    Newgroundsguru; in my short time on this forum, there has never been a logical pattern to Sprints roll out. (There I go complaining again). :-)

     

    But, I will admit, Sprint's coverage here in the area of Yuma that I roam, has Improved!

     

    Keep in touch,

    Lateck

  9. I guess Sprint has the southern part of Arizona covered in total fast LTE service.... :-)

    I say that because the posts here have almost stopped. (We used to be called complainers).

    But, it is true the coverage has improved and LTE is better then the older 3G.

    I am still wishing the coverage would improve in south Yuma county.

     

    Are we going to see "Tri-band" in the next year?

     

    My thoughts,

    Lateck.

  10. Hey guys, has the Note 3 reception issue been fixed on latest OTAs? My mother is looking at upgrading her phone soon and eyeing the Note 3 but she relies on call quality and battery life.Sent from my LG-LS980

    Mine's been fixed since the first up-date.

    KK has fixed nothing about this issue.

    The latest up-date is a whole new bag of worms..... WiFi phone is good and bad.

    ( My two cents).

     

    Lateck,

  11. Thanks Chemist. I did not know that was there..... No instructions or information from Sprint about the software up-date....... Just what we learn here on the Inter-net. :-)

     

    Lateck,

  12. I too, just received the new 43.00mb up-date.

    I had to do a full re-set after KK due to I had a few apps that were moving things around on my SD card. (I have read that KK changed how files are accessed and secured).

    After that, things have been ok.......

    Let's see what the "New" stuff offers......

     

    Lateck,

  13. If your surrounded by accepted sites, that is the way it's going to be. I'm having the same issue here in Yuma, LTE is very weak and spotty; very rare I get a connection indoors.

    You mean we won't be having "Spark" (or what ever it will be) anytime soon? :-P

     

    Lateck,

  14. Thanks smalltimehack. I did that and the you tube issues went away but......

    I am getting "android.process.media" has stopped and I can not pull up any photos that were not protected by another app. Even when I take a photo, it will not display.

    Any ideas?
