Yeah I got this message in York, PA today, but we have had 1900 LTE and 1x 800 for months. So I don't know if that means that they are almost done removing all the legacy equipment and running solely on NV equipment or if this indicates that LTE 800 rollout is under way. I sure hope its both!

Wow really? Did you map it on Sensorly? I was at Penn Cinema on Saturday night to see Gravity but I couldn't check my phone for 4G (the lady hates when I even look at my phone while driving )

No worries whenever it starts to go live, this will be the first place to know about it. My girlfriend recently moved from Oregon Pike & 30 area to the Old Philadelphia Pike area so I'll keep an eye out over on the East side.

Driving east on route 30 this morning I managed to stay connected to LTE from Centerville all the way to the intersection on Lititz pike. A lot farther than I managed on Saturday when LTE disconnected around Harrisburg Pike. I mapped as much as I could on Sensorly.

Well I have noticed that I don't have the greatest of signals around that area. I just saw brand new cabinets that were very small and had a very close resemblance to Sprint's NV Cabinets. Maybe it's T-Mobile's equipment, I don't know if they are putting up new cabinets with their LTE rollout as well.

Yeah the one thats right near 222.

Oh dang, I didn't know it was that far in the boondocks. Welp... Good luck and Godspeed Robert!

Aww man I had actually just driven through the area to go up to Lititz a couple hours ago and I didn't look at my phone. Just noticed this on Sensorly a few minutes ago. There is a cell tower right off of Eden road a little further east of the Eden Resort that I saw Sprint NV cabinets at. It didn't cross my mind to snap a few pictures but I'll try to stop by this Saturday when I go back to Lanc. Hopefully that guy starts broadcasting LTE soon.

You won't even have Sprint service there after CDMA 800 rolls out? Man that's hard on the body. But I imagine the pay and the location will more than make up for the lack of Sprint service. I wish you the best!

lol negative. My girlfriend has been conditioned to not want an iPhone even if I suggest it to her.

Hey guys, what do you guys think the chances would be that the Sprint iPhone 5S will support LTE 800?

It honestly wouldn't surprise me. The people on this site are definitely not the only ones that see how good Sprint is gonna be after NV, so I'm sure there are forces afoot trying to slow them down and/or hinder their plans.

Definitely!!! Although unfortunately, thanks to Dish's meddling, Clearwire ended up costing Sprint twice as much as they were originally gonna pay for them.

Lol I read it and did indeed question the mention of RF Amplifiers. But if it's worth anything, they took some good pictures of the equipment

Pretty nice look-in on Sprint's Network vision upgrades in San Fransisco by Engadget. http://www.engadget.com/2013/06/12/sprint-testing-lte-cell-sites-in-san-francisco-we-go-hands-on/ Wasn't sure what thread to post this in, but I don't think this thread was a bad choice =)

Lol you can donate $1 if that's what you can afford.

I personally have never used it but HTC's spec sheet on their website does indeed list MHL connectivity. http://www.htc.com/www/smartphones/htc-one/#specs

Lol set the middle screen as the default and put your apps and/or widgets on that screen. You can't move screens around in Sense 5.

I guess since we are talking about some issues with the device, is anyone having issues with the audio quality when playing locally stored music in the car via bluetooth to an aftermarket receiver? When I try to listen to music over bluetooth there is a lot of static in the sound, it sounds similar to speakers that are going bad and they start making a crackling sound. But I tried it this morning with an auxiliary cable and it works fine. Is anyone else experiencing this?

If it were just a bit of signal drop I wouldn't care, but on a couple of instances I get complaints from my girlfriend that I'm either cutting in and out or I sound really far away and I've even had the call drop twice before. It's not all the time, just occasionally but either way its very annoying and I've been trying to find different ways of holding it to make sure I'm not covering the microphones by accident, etc. I really don't want to get a case but I'm starting to think I may have to if it will help with this issue.

I've been doing a lot of mapping in downtown and West York. I've done most of the mapping in the inner city from W Market Street and Hokes Mill Road all the way to Rathton Road and South Queen Street. I've also done the mapping on the stretch of Loucks Mill Road from Route 30 to George Street and the piece of Sherman Street from 30 to Philadelphia Street. I've noticed that the tower near Country Club Road is broadcasting LTE so I've been trying to map all the areas around York College and trying to see how far east I can go before losing LTE. I'll see if I can go a little further east and slightly more North near Penn State York.

Lol I've stuck with HTC through thick (Evo 4G) and thin (Evo 3D ) so its gonna take more than a little bit of LTE connectivity issues to keep me away from the HTC One.

Indeed. Hopefully the HTC One is much better. Mine should be arriving sometime early next week hopefully.

Alright so I have been able to get LTE in a few more areas that I haven't been able to before. I now get LTE outside of my workplace and occasionally indoors at work in New Oxford, Pa (which is surprising cuz I barely get 3G in that dungeon). I've also been mapping around Hokes Mill Road and West King Street in York, PA which on Sensorly the dark purple near that area lead me to believe that the tower on 150 South Seward street is broadcasting LTE. Most importantly I get LTE everywhere in my home where a few days ago I used to drop down to 3G right when pulling up in front of my house, so I am also thinking that the tower on 525 Aqua Court is also broadcasting LTE.

The issue is that if the deal goes through, Hesse and his team are almost assuredly out the door.
