    Around here both AT&T and T-Mobile use Commscope products. Most Commscope antennas have the distinct crease down the center making them easy to identify and makes them look similar even though they use different models.  

    In STL Sprint and T-Mobile are the only two using these antennas that I've observed

    @mikejeep The first couple of days after the update everything seemed fine, then all of a sudden yesterday it "hung" 3 different times, the only way to get it to work again was to go force stop from settings. Two of the 3 times I did have it running in split window mode so I could see SCP and the service mode screen at the same time. I've had no issues today. Not sure what triggered yesterday, I had received the September android update the day before but I ran SCP that day with no issues. I've had 0 issues with the new update on my T-Mobile S20+.

    Another note/ feature request: since the Android update the service mode now shows PCC MIMO info. I wonder if that is reported in the OS in a way you can display in SCP.

    I'm having the same issue and I'm not beta. I sent message in main SCP room

    Nope, found it to be a pain to use... and wasnt really putting me on the sprint bands anyway..

    Band 2 has been having problems.. everytime data hangs/crashes whatever you want to call it (Phone and SCP shows connected, apps and speed test say otherwise)  its been Band 2..

    So with the band selector I found that sometimes I had to do it twice and in some cases even toggle airplane mode before it actually happened.

    You never know, sometimes the devices with the best engineering screens report garbage to the OS, and vice versa. I know @S4GRU was testing a V60 with SCP.. Robert, have you seen any 5G band info in SCP? It would likely only be seen with a standalone connection at this point..

    I can see that I'm connected but I haven't came across any 5G standalone to verify. However in the NR Engineering screen I get no information at all. Says unknown. However my wife has the Samsung A71 5G and as far as I know it hasn't had 5G standalone either

    I didn’t connect to it right away either. I’m not sure if I needed to but it seemed like it connected right after I toggled airplane mode.

    Cool. I'll have to try that by my site. I think they have been doing work in our area cause 5G was giving me too many problems yesterday. And not in just one area. I drive Uber/Lyft on the side and was having issues where I was forced to just turn 5G off yesterday until I finish driving.

    If your phone is reporting it, yes! Generally works on standalone 5G connections, but not on NSA (5G+LTE anchor). Hoping it improves as more device software updates come out.

    EDIT: See some examples in these posts from the Beta Crew thread.

    Thanks Mike. I just read through the forum. My fear is with the LG V60 not reporting n41 or n71 in the NR Engineering screen that SCP won't report it for me. LG is really starting to piss me off.

    I would kick this back to iansltx.  It matches what I would expect until a market is converted to a greater degree.  Although we are hearing exceptions now, for roaming to T-Mobile (and back to Sprint if you need it) you need to be on Sprint.

    So if I lose T-Mobile connection my phone will try and hit Sprint then his roam then no service continue this cycle until I toggle airplane mode or restart.

    Going to see if the Missouri one is active. Think it is STL city though. I know where the n41 antenna is on near there. But I notice it didn't have the other n41 locations on here.
