Handyman, are you premier sponsor yet?

Nevermind. Would help if I read slower lol

A few more observations... Centerville at Spring Valley Pike and Paragon has the B41 panels up, as well as the tower on US27 north of Millville. Surprised to see that the Dayton Mall towers don't have them yet.

There is one by the Dayton mall that does. You talking about booth road or farther down 27?

Booth Rd. in Oxford also has B41 panels. I couldn't tell if Miami U had B41 panels up - it was too dark to see. If it does, they are smaller panels and don't yet have the amps attached to them.

Thank you for looking. I would assume Miami U would have them also, it would just not make sense to skip it.

The tower by Kroger and Frischs on route 4 had panels up for almost 3 months before they went live.

I will check the campus and the one south of town tomorrow. I know it is within the past few days. My phone is a MotoX original version, so I don't think I'd be able to check to see if band 41 is live yet.

Was there two days ago, and the morningsun rd had the new antennas, I do have tri band and it is not live yet.

Oh ok, I know my area has been wonderful for a few months now. I just didn't realize Cincinnati wasn't complete. The combination of the network build with my Note 4 is really remarkable. Went from unusable fringe signal on an S3 to phenomenal performance in the exact same place.

That it's the difference between a spark device and a single band device. I've had perfect signal in spots where the the old lady's note 3 doesn't.

I stand corrected - they are indeed B41 Spark panels

I didn't check the main tower in downtown Oxford, did you happen to see if they where up there also? I would assume while they were there they would do them also.

So was the Cincinnati market not completed? Or are we @ the top of the Spark list after the shake up?

They already started with spark roll out, guess they figured why stop since its already been started.

B26 panels have been added to the Morning Sun Rd tower in Oxford.

Those are actually b41. That tower is already putting out b26 along with the other 2 in Oxford.

These were taken in and around Eaton Ohio in the Cincinnati market. There are three sites that always give me an invalid UL Channel. I took a screen shot so we know it is not software. Is this a site configuration error? Also the uploads either fail or they are extremely slow. dkyeager helped me figure out it was an invalid UL channel.

Also found a second band 25 carrier but was unable to get a engineering screenshot.

Hotlist?

First time I ever used them yes, but the last few times no.

Where did you post? Reddit?

Framilycodes.com

I do use the Pro version, and Band 26 allows for phone calls.

check your pm

It's not an eCSFB issue as my max works just fine in the same area as he is in. Phone calls text and everything in between works fine in his area.

Interesting about the Max compared to the M8. My M8 continues to work with band 41 disabled, if I enable it the issues return.

 

Maybe someone can tell if the 45342 area is being worked on, as well as provide some ideas on what is going on with the two models.

My friend, my max works fine in miamisburg as well as in Franklin, Dayton. I have actually visited quite a few towers out that way. Which tower is yours?

Is Band 41 turned off on your max?

Nope switches to all bands no problem

So after some experimenting, my m8 does this where it switches to band 26 and drops to 3g. I decided to turn my one max back on, in the same spots where the m8 does the drop, my max holds band 26 no problem. I can't figure out why but my max is not affected by the band 26 drop issue.

Everyone complaining about not having B41 yet makes me laugh. Now, if I could just get some LTE love on the half dozen or so towers in Butler and Wayne counties that don't have it yet, but are clearly listed on Sprint's maps as solid LTE, I would be happy.

I would like to know which ones your talking about.

is it normal for the note 3 to show N/A under provider?

Make sure you turn on your location, my old lady's does the same till you turn it on.

I don't think you can add new lines to a framily anymore. We tried and they told us no

As long as it's new lines you should. This was done.on mine last week.

Rocket,

 

I know there is an October expiration date on the $50 iPhone plan. Any indication that this is going to be extended?

 

Also, as I said in a previous post, I am currently in a 10 member Framily. My wife and I both upgraded to iPhone 6's so we can go to the new iPhone plans if we want. If we were both doing unlimited I would jump now, but she is on 1GB and never goes over, and I am on unlimited. I do have a 18% corp discount that we can use on framily but not on the new plans from what I understand. 8 of our framily members were added by just posting our ID on reddit, so I do not know them. As you know, the risk with framily is you could lose members at any time, and with framily now being buried, my fear is that trying to add members back would be a PITA. But moving both of my lines to the $50 plans would be a decent price jump compared to what I am paying right now. As somebody who deals with this daily, what would you suggest? Here is what I am thinking.

 

1. Stay as is and take the risk that my framily will stick around and if anybody does leave I will be able to add new members or just wait until the cost of framily is more then the new plans and switch at that time.

2. Take the sure thing and move to the $50 iPhone plans while that window is open.

3. Move just my line to the $50 plan and leave my wife in the framily with 9 remaining members.

 

Being at 10 we would have to lose 4 before the price starts going up, and I have been at 10 since July with no issues, so I am not too worried about losing anybody. I think it is just the idea that if you lose people you could face a price hike at anytime and if I can't get the $50 unlimited when that happens I will be kicking myself. But I am saving a lot now.

 

This is why frequent rate plan changes is frustrating for customers.

I don't think it will be as hard as you think to re add framily members. Right after the new plans ruled out, I lost 4 myself, reposted my framily id and within 24 hours I was full again.

Ok Bummer I knew there was going to be a cut off date and was thinking/hoping for end of sept, thanks!

 

Other than the iphone deal, the (full) framily was a much better and flexible deal. Oh well.

8 lines open if interested

Hi, I am new to here (sorry if I say anything stupid...)! I will probably be only posting every so often and not be so much of a regular.

 

But for starters my phone is the Samsung galaxy S III stock, will probably, soon be upgrading to Sony Xepria Z3 (I know Sprint doesn't offer any Sony phones at the moment but I have read a few articles about it probably coming to Sprint, so I am hoping! Also hope it has Spark support.) If they don't get that then I might do the Samsung Note 4.

 

Now according to the "Network Vision/LTE Deployment Running List" Cincinnati has officially launched? Which is good news!

 

For me myself I like Sprint, my only issue is on my SG3, I am lucky to get 4G LTE inside or outside of my house... I usually pull 2 bars of 3G inside my house. Now with Sprint Spark enabled devices, wouldn't the LTE be much stronger inside/outside my house?

Depends on your location, if you have a spark enabled phone, and band 26 is available, you should be able to get lte in your house. There is no guarantee though. Where are you located?

 

sent from my HTC One Max

Yeah, this one bar of 4g, switching back and forth to 3g sucks, I'm paying a premium for unlimited high speed data and have yet to see it here locally at my house, a mile up the street it's pretty dang good, not here....

Show us on your bill where it says you pay a premium? You do know our market is not officially launched yet right? There are other site that need work, let alone tweaking to make things work better. Be happy you get service and none at all. It will get better, but this is not a place to bitch about your service. Not trying to sound rude, but if Sprint is not working for you then I recommend you find a provider that does.
