I was at Trinity College tonight for a while, and still, I cant pick up 800 on the standard PRL to save my life on my S3.  I even went roaming.  When I flashed the premiere sponsor prl, I got 800 right away.  I dont get it either.

I've updated the PRL through the phone, but no difference. I'm also on Virgin Mobile, so I believe I can't roam anyway. How can I update the PRL list to something that allows 800?

I've noticed the LTE coverage improve dramatically since I joined this site last year, its great to see LTE nearly everywhere I go (except my house! it'll get there eventually).

I saw that 800 was turned on this week, however I'm not seeing it on my phone (galaxy s3) anywhere in the hartford area. I work at Hartford Hospital and live in West Hartford, so I'm always traveling around this side of the river. I swear I've seen 800 before on my phone when they were testing. Am I missing something?

What is the 800MHz signal that everyone is so excited about?

It's nice to see all of the LTE sites coming online. Of course, where I live in West Hartford (bishops corner) and where I work in Hartford (Hartford Hospital) don't have any 4G, but it will get here soon 

Catching that Vernon 800 again this morning. I would love for them to fire up the entire area now

Galaxy Note 2 Downtown Hartford. But it's the same thing with my EVO LTE and my iPhone 4 is constantly on 2G. The only devices that are ok are my WiMAX devices and I'm assuming that's thanks to Clear.

I'm working over at the Institute of Living (next to Hartford Hospital) with a Galaxy S3. I have no service at my desk! I usually have at least 1 bar, sometimes more, but today no signal. I thought maybe Virgin Mobile messed up my monthly billing, but I see other people are encountering problems. I've also heard that VM does not roam. What's going on with Sprint's signal in Hartford?

On the sponsers map its just east of Hartford.

Where is the map, is there a link to it?

Looks like the first LTE site in this market has been accepted. Check out the sponsors map.

What is the sponsor's map? What does it mean that an LTE site has been accepted?

You get 3G data speeds in West Hartford?  Sure you arent on wifi?  

Well, actually i am on wifi at my house. But... in the street, I do get 3G speeds. Sometimes up to 1-2Mbps.

Any updates on the 4G rollout in greater Hartford? I also recently bought a Virgin Mobile 4G LTE phone, but of course I can only use 3G speeds where I live in West Hartford. I see on the Sprint network website about "data capacity" and "data speed" upgrades at the towers near my house. Are these upgrades related to 3G or 4G?
