    I took the articles as Sprint was going to allow Regional Carriers to roam on Sprint LTE 1900 and 800 in exchange for roaming on the networks as if it were Sprints Native Coverage. Anyone else take the articles like that? And also didn't sprint use to have that where they roamed on other networks and the phones recognized that network as Sprint? Before I switched to Sprint from Verizon I was able to roam on U.S. Cellular ( Which Was All The Time) and it acted like it was native. And it was part of my UNLIMITED Data through Verizon.

    The current Iphone 5s and 5c is compatible with Sprints 1900Mhz band and 800Mhz on LTE just not compatible with 2500Mhz. At least you will get the better LTE coverage.

    Sprint Network in Peoria and the surrounding areas went down last night if anyone had issues yesterday and into last night.

    Peoria, Pekin, Morton, and Washington have officially been added to the sprint LTE markets. Coverage maps on the website confirm it. they will probably announce it on Monday like they have been doing lately.

    A couple of weeks ago there were sprint vehicles at a U.S. Cellular tower outside of Mackinaw And now it seems that there is Samsung network vision equipement on it. Any Ideas? My phone also goes from Sprint 1x800 from the tower in Morton and then to 1xRTT and it says I am on sprint and get almost full bars but my phone still says I am roaming on Sprint. Could it be a transition from U.S. Cellular tower to Sprint. ( U.S. Cellular has 3 Towers in a 5 Mile Radius.)

    I was Just thinking of this also. It irrelivant but why does Sprint use 6 bars for indications but every other carrier uses Fours. any Ideas just wondering if there is any reasoning.

    I dont think it will be a year from now. Sprint plans to be wrapping up things by the middle of the year. It will be great to see Sprint launch LTe in Peoria, Washington, Morton, And Pekin. Also does anyone know what is going on in Glaesburg they were the first area to start seeing LTE and they still dont have anything in Galesburg. Is everyhting on delay because of the Freezing Temps. TIRED OF WINTER. Spring Pleaase.

    Is it possible to have just a Data tower without voice on it? Because i passed a tower that has new antennas and the whole nine yards but that's all it has is the lte.

    Other than that look at the speeds I was getting while sitting in Morton Krogers Parking Lot. 30 Mbs down and 10 Mbs down. Sorry picture wouldnt upload..

    On my way home my phone went into roaming and when I checked the network I was it said Sprint. My bars increased once I hit the roaming area but it still continued to say Sprint. I have pictures below. Then I thought that 1x800 would increase in coverage but it hasn't so far. It has been live for about four or five months and it gets the same signal strengths as 1900Mhz. Does Sprint limit the distance until everything is launched fully.

    Yes usually upgrades is the cause of service issues. and on sensorly it shows lte just west of Bloomington on 122
  12. 9690austin
    On sprints website that shows what towers have had updates usually the ones that have been Activated say two Data speed upgrades. Is this how they label Lte towers. Maybe one 3g upgrade and The other Lte. Also why dont they label anything on the towers about upgrading to 800mhz as voice upgrade.

    Tower in Morton south end on queen wood is running 4g got it in Mackinaw now
  14. 9690austin
    Yeah I had Verizon to and they sucked in Haritage lake even though there was a tower in Mackinaw. Verizon isnt what they make themselves out to be.
  15. 9690austin
    16 days we will find out.
  16. 9690austin
    I would guess you would roam on Verizon then since us cellular is no longer in this area. but i can relate i live In mackinaw.
  17. 9690austin
    I wish they would to U.S. Cellular has awesome coverage in Illinois and would love to see Sprint Buy them. Verizon Sucks hope they don't get it. I moved from those greedy people with a sucky network.
  18. 9690austin
    And why are there three U.S. Cellular towers within five miles of each other. I have just always wondered that.
  19. 9690austin
    i have a question to why US Cellular would leave those towers empty when Sprint could have bought them.
  20. 9690austin
    Lexington has LTE. so how long do you think Bloomington will have LTE?
  21. 9690austin
    Sprint Market Map - Central Illinois
    ok thats what i thought but there werent some towers that i know is Sprint on this map
  22. 9690austin
    Anyone in Peoria getting LTE by the Shops at Grand Prairie. And Pekins LTE screams just like Washingtons LTE 30+ Mbs consistently.
  23. 9690austin
    Pekin is covered with LTE now tried to get it sensored but only did it by Menards and Walmart kept it until past Springfield road going towards Tremont.
  24. 9690austin
    Pekin has Lte and more parts of Morton have it it slowly growing.
  25. 9690austin
    800mhz doesn't go as far as i thought it would because mackinaw by IGA would get 1-3 bar on 1900mhz but 800 i onlyget 1-2 bars. why is this?
