  1. Hey, Mike,

     

    I've been enjoying your program (Pro) for some time. I posted the attached screenshot on the nTelos thread in Markets, and someone suggested I post it here for your feedback on what it means. Any wisdom?

     

    I was looking for LTE in a possible new update market with my Sprint One, and this happened when my mobile network setting was CDMA/LTE. Here in nTelos territory, I usually lose data connection on this setting, so it was no surprise at the time. I usually have to use CDMA Only.

     

    TIA,

    David

  2. I made it to W'boro today, and found NO 4G love. :(

     

    There was robust 1xRTT and eHRPD (which, as usual, kicked me off a data connection) and no LTE according to Signal Check. I tried toggling Airplane mode several times (what a pain now, thanks to 4.3!), but no luck.

     

    The first 2 screenshots are when I switched back to CDMA mode to make sure I could get data at all, and the 3rd shows what happened on CDMA/LET mode: Nada.

  3. That is a known issue. Somewhere, previously in this thread it is discussed.

     

    The point, however, is that in their great wisdom, Google has decided to block apps from being able to access the Airplane Mode feature that assists in resetting the data connection.

    AHA! This also explains why the Airplane Mode toggle in Power Toggles sends me to the Settings to turn Airplane mode on. PITA!

  4. Connected to eHRPD but no 3g symbol or working data in status bar. Could they be upgrading tower to lte? Note: sprint customer in nTelos area on wifes note 2. 

    That's been my experience in Central VA on Sprint using nTelos towers.  I can turn the Mobile Networks setting on to CDMA/LTE or Automatic and see eHRPD on Signal Check, but it kills my data connection.  I have to switch back to CDMA Only to restore it.

     

    nTelos - still a 4G wasteland!

  5. Just had a chat with an nTelos employee. Sounds to me like they might be building out all the LTE first and then launching/turning on most if not all at once.

    "What a great question!" Sheesh!

     

    He said that nTelos customers won't be allowed to use Sprints LTE network either.Any truth to this or is this typical worker bee jargon? If Sprint is not over building in WV and there is no 4g agreement then I'd be screwed.

    This had the same uppity tone as his previous statement - I'd file under "Doesn't know what he's talking about"
