  1. I like how you can see which frequency range you are on when connected to LTE that's going to be useful when tri band devices are released. Sent from my EVO
  2. I wonder if Sprint will reuse any equipment (mainly panels) from clearwire's current setup and move the equipment down to the sprint rack (on colocated towers) and install dual mode rru for TD LTE/WiMax installs. For cost savings on NV towers. Also will sprint build out more TD LTE to just more than the top 100 cities. Even if it is just a couple sites here and there in small towns?
  3. You are correct I failed to mention that. I believe at some point sprint is going to turn a good bit of the GMO sites into full build sites where it makes sense. Also I think the storms are effecting the NV roll out in FL
  4. OK I see what you were saying I thought for some reason they were going to install on clear wire sites and/or equipment racks on co-located sprint towers. It didn't make sense to me since in two years sprint will likely shut down wimax like they did with iden.
  5. Wouldnt sprint add panels to their existing nv sites and not to the existing clear wire sites In markets where clear wire hasn't done any LTE work yet
  6. I was feeling the same way until i stumbled upon this site. Without Robert I would have paid my ETF and left. Then I saw NV visions potential on this site. All I can say is that if sprint isn't working for you then you have to go with what works for you. My service has gotten better on the north side by far. Only if sprint could activate CDMA 800 in Middleburg (where I work) I will be in heaven.
  7. Well, by the time my upgrade comes Jan 1st the city should be blanketed with 1900 LTE. Sprint should be rolling out 800 and 2500 LTE service and I'll be a happy camper with unlimited LTE citywide. Once NV work is done for 1900. 800 should be a breeze and I believe that 2500 requires an additional panel and base station card. By this time next year we should be in good shape.
  8. Sprint has LTE showing on their coverage map on sprint.com. they exaggerated a little on the coverage especially on the south side of town aka the black hole.
  9. What's up with the underlined cities? I'm in Jacksonville Florida is the reason I asked. Also I agree that Jacksonville shouldn't be on the list there's a big chunk of the south side that isn't covered at all.
  10. Well all the nv towers deployed is capable of CDMA 800 and LTE 800. LTE 800 requires a trip to the base stations but CDMA 800 does not. It can be activated remotely it just requires 911 and interference testing. So it's only a matter of time before the LTE 800 is activated since the shut down of iden.
  11. Well they are starting on 800 and 2.5 now. So by the time the 1900 LTE starts to get slow their will be 800 and 2.5 will be online. People like me that has the first generation of LTE devices (evo lte, s3, viper, etc) will be up for upgrade and can choose from tri band devices.
  12. This usually happens to me in Jacksonville. The site is accepted then it takes days up to two Weeks for the signal to become active. I believe Robert spoke about this in a thread here before.
  13. I would love to see a speed test from these devices while connected to 2.5ghz LTE
  14. Does anyone here think that since sprint is basically going the unlimited minutes route that sprint will add a WiFi calling feature to their phones like T-Mobile?
  15. Enjoy for vacation. Make sure you take some fried chicken with you.
  16. Well, I have an Evo LTE so I don't know of there's any issues. Anytime I have a problem I assume its the phone.
  17. The work in that area may already be done but the site may not be accecpted. You may want to check out towers in the area to see if you recognize any nv work. Jacksonville has progressed a lot in the past six months. Iirc the whole market should be complete by years end.
  18. Well hopefully when this deal goes through that the new sprint will make more info available for Robert and his staff. Since these dudes saved sprint a lot of customers including myself. I feel that without this site most people would have jumped ship. Also, a donation from the new sprint to this site would be nice too.
  19. Does anyone think that sprint will look at adding TD LTE to more high traffic sites that they didn't consider the first go around due to lack of funding? Even those that are not in urban areas.
