LTE finally up in manteca but speeds are terrible, currently around 2Mbps both directions. Hopefully they crank up the speeds soon.

1x 800 in Manteca. Sitting at home and looked at my phone. I might have reception in target now, just need good data speeds and im good to go.

Went to the sprint store in Manteca to activate the wifes N5. While i was there one of the sales reps said they were supposed to build another tower by the store somewhere because there is very little coverage by the store.

I dont know if hes full of it or not but this might be the reason there hasnt been any testing going on in manteca.

Got the double going today...Im happy for Riverbank but sad that no testing like this is happening in Manteca.

Im in riverbank close to claus and claribel/kiernan, mapped my way to carls jr and back.

In riverbank at work... Trying to find stuff to do while i have LTE here... Coming up blank, im just staring at the screen looking at the LTE symbol in awe.

Absolutely no meaning. They just send them our periodically.

Why slay my LTE dreams like that? You could have let me down gentle.

Got the text for manteca stating they are building a whole new network for manteca. I guess they are going to launch upper cali this quarter.

They are testing 800 in Modesto Riverbank again today.

Just got off the phone with Voyager Mobile's GM and he said that they will have Sprint Spark available on in 1 to 2 months from sprint. I guess Sprint is letting the MVNOs have full access to their network which is the right thing to do anyways.

Looks like it was just testing..No 1x800 today on the way to work or at work.

In Salida and Riverbank going to clients got 1x800 everywhere. ill post some screenshots.

Tracy and lathrop too. I thought Tracy would be live by now since on sensorly there was some lte spotting since back in July. I never connected to lte in that spot in Tracy ..

I usually dont get any LTE till i get over the hill, going into livermore.

Poor Manteca, applied back in july and still nothing. I guess the city must be last behind stockton and modesto.

Is there any post on wimax upgrades in Manteca there's only one tower for the city don't think they're be upgraded any time soon so my hopes are wimax and a tri-band phone I'm still hanging with sprint but service is bad right now I go and check the tower every week to see if any work is done and same thing

I know how you feel. I dont think they have done anything to the wimax tower right by savemart on N.Main st. Im still waiting to see them start work on the tower by the police station which is the only NV site listed for manteca.

Im waiting on buying anything from sprint till NV has rolled through manteca. They are playing catchup to the 3 other big carriers in our city. I hope i can last because T-mobile is looking really good right now. Ive got patience though ive been with sprint for 9 years so i think i can hold out a little more.

Do you think clearwire will be touching their existing WiMAxx towers? There is alot of WiMAX in the 209 and it would be nice if they were upgraded.

I have a question, the site in my city that has applied for a permit to be upgraded, is there an application for my phone that can scan to see if it is broadcasting any signals? I go by it everyday to drop my daughter off at daycare and i hit 2 different towers a couple miles away instead of that one a couple hundred feet away.

All phones currently available (bar iphone 4/4s) support CDMA 800 1x Voice & slow data but not LTE 800 which will come next month starting with the LG G2 then Samsung Note 3 and/or rereleased tri-band galaxy s4.  So I'd advise you to hold off anyhow. It's pretty stupid getting a single band LTE device right on the eve of tri-bands. 

 

Our market is slated to have LTE 800 activated and available on certain sites in the next 60-90 days. 

Thats really nice, all i want to do this year is to be able to christmas shop in a store with my cell phone so i can call and or text my wife about certain items. I will be doing all the shopping since our 2nd kid is due in october and i dont feel like taking him to the crowded area stores for christmas shopping.

I also use my phone as a computer since i am a sysadmin and would love to be able to do that when im not on wifi.

I really love my phone but it just seems like its crippled by the service. Ive waiited a long tim for this and im glad the time is coming soon.

Hi guys im new but i have a question. Do any of you know if they are going to start work in San Jaoquin county soon? The service is just not there where i need it like inside of target or other stores. Ive been with sprint for 8 years and im excited about the upgrades coming i just hope its soon.
