  1. This is the funniest part of their complaint, IMO: -Anthony
  2. When you have something plugged into the headphone jack, it overrides the earpiece. It's been like that for years, long before iOS 6/7. -Anthony
  3. The CAPACITY of a 15x15, not the throughput of a 15x15. It's the same thing as Sprint launching a second 5x5 carrier in PCS. -Anthony
  4. First, you have to include Sprint's PCS holdings that currently are being used for CDMA instead of LTE, which alone can be more than 35 MHz in some markets. Next, the benefit of Verizon running a 5x5 in PCS means that Verizon goes from having the capacity of a 10x10 network to having the capacity of a 15x15 network when in range of the PCS carrier. Which, in turn, will increase speeds on the 700 MHz network. -Anthony
  5. There isn't a specific distance that Band 41(or any radio frequency/technology) begins to fade. It varies by every site in every market. It depends on a plethora of environmental factors, site transmit power, down tilt, etc. -Anthony
  6. Plus, if all of those uni-band devices on Sprint Prepaid are all camped on Band 25, that makes it even more congested than it already is. Band 41 is the capacity band, not Band 25, so we shouldn't be putting those ~14 million subs all on Band 25. The load needs to be spread out. -Anthony
  7. This is why I use the mobile site. Works great for me -Anthony
  8. I imagine that that would be a nightmare to implement :/ -Anthony
  9. You think they'll have to have those pants MFi certified? -Anthony
  10. It has to do with how LTE is modulated. Any LTE on any frequency will propagate worse than EVDO/1x on the same frequency. -Anthony
  11. I remember reading that most or all of the Louisiana area was an affiliate market that Sprint bought, and that affliate had poor cell spacing to begin with. -Anthony
  12. Yeah Robert is right. I have a 5S, and I pick up Band 26 all over the place. It's not exactly optimized yet, but where you get it, it works well. I actually haven't even seen more than a few places without it. And many of our other members in Charlotte and the surrounding areas will tell you that Band 41 is just as prevalent, if not more-so. -Anthony
  13. I was just about to point that out. Verizon's LTE is, in most places, ubiquitous. Sprint's, on the other hand, will have some dead zones in Band 25 only areas. So we aren't talking LTE to LTE handoffs, we're talking LTE to 3G to LTE handoffs. -Anthony
  14. You will never get the same range out of LTE 800 as you get with 1x800. LTE is a much more fragile airlink than 1x is, so you can't hold LTE nearly as well as you can hold 1x. -Anthony
  15. As am I. Since I live in Harrisburg, it'll greatly benefit me. (And everyone else with Sprint in this area) -Anthony
  16. To those of us that saw the tower go up on Pitts School Road in Concord, just wanted to let you guys know the (disappointing) news, it's a T-Mobile tower :/ -Anthony
  17. He would, but he ordered it through Next and the only way they'll let him get a phone through Next at an Apple Store is if he was a new customer, which he isn't. He just called every AT&T store within a 50 mile radius of us (which is a lot of stores) and all of them only have 16 GB models. I feel for the dude. -Anthony
