I also just got this: I don't have a clue how that happened haha This is in Harrisburg, North Carolina at Hickory Ridge High School (Just in case you want to look and see what tower I might be connecting to or I'm pulling this off of) Sent from my iPhone 5 using Tapatalk -
Will do once I get home from school

Soooo, is this 1x800? From the looks of it, I'm connected to a tower from verrrryyy far away. Got this with 0 bars of Signal, which is very weird. I usually get 5 bars of Extended service where I'm at, but the recent prl update for iPhones has disabled roaming for whatever reason. Sent from my iPhone 5 using Tapatalk

A month, a month and a half, it's all the same thing

Here is what I posted in one of the threads in the Apple/iPhone/iOS section: Kind of frustrated that I can only receive iMessages and can't receive any texts do to having no roaming capability for what I assume is this prl's fault. Hopefully Sprint will get this fixed.
-
I have tried to update today also, because it seems that 60657 also doesn't allow roaming, considering I'm at school where I always get 5 bars of Extended 1x/3G on my iPhone 5 but right now I am currently getting "No Service" and "Searching" constantly

In the "Current Sprint PRLs" thread in General topics, digiblur says that it sounds like it may be a legacy non-LTE prl, and I think it's safe to assume that it may be a mix-up on Sprints end. I doubt they would purposely force us off of LTE, because I see no benefit to Sprint in that.
-
I'm also on that PRL on my iPhone 5 and I'm not getting LTE anymore either. Must be like digiblur said and it's just a legacy non-LTE PRL.

Excellent point. I'm not sure why I assumed he had an iPhone 5S when he said he had it jailbroken. No matter what software changes you make to the 5, you can't enable band 26 because it lacks the radios.
-
Well I applaud your adventurousness... sure, that's a word lol. Make sure to report back what your results are
-
I don't think there is any way for you to activate band 26 without a carrier update :/ Sent from my iPhone 5 using Tapatalk

The iPhone 5 can only access Band 25 LTE on Sprint's PCS 1900 MHz frequency. The only iPhones that can access Band 26 LTE on Sprint's 800 MHz fequency are the iPhone 5S and the iPhone 5C. However, the iPhone 5 CAN access CDMA 800, also known as 1xAdvanced 800, which is for Voice and Text, and very, very little data (Just in case you didn't know ).

Is Sprint Throttling LTE?
anthony.spina97 replied to ks-man's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
Yeah that makes sense, when I'm getting throttled it only happens when I'm in a big city with a lot of people using the network. 1 Mbps is good enough -
Is Sprint Throttling LTE?
anthony.spina97 replied to ks-man's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
I seem to of experienced this, considering I can get 15+ Mbps down on a speedtest, yet my video plays in 240p or 144p on Youtube. Sprint is only doing it on the new Unlimited My Way and All-In plans I believe. -
They also tell you the LTE band you're on: Sent from my iPhone 5 using Tapatalk

Just got the okay from my Dad for me to donate a little more than enough to get me to Premier! I'm a pretty happy nerd right now!!

Well dang!! That is not bad at all from being 2 miles away from a tower through a ton of trees and hills! Way to go Sprint!! Sent from my iPhone 5 using Tapatalk

FCC wants caps at 600 mhz auction on big carriers.

Very interesting! Glad to see the FCC looking out for the smaller carriers! -
LTE 1900 expansion
anthony.spina97 replied to IamMrFamous07's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
I sure hope they do! I've got one about 3/4 of a mile from my house, and my sister got pretty decent WIMAX on her Evo Shift 4G. Right now i get decent 3G and very fringe LTE on my iPhone 5 from a tower that is about 2 1/2 miles from my house. It would be amazing to get LTE throughout my neighborhood and at my friends' houses.-Anthony -
Now if only Charlotte can start getting some 1x 800 love, along with the iPhone being opened up to it

PREACH, AJ, PREACH!

I too am thankful for the inteligence of the staff and the members! Unfortunately, I can't take advantage of the special Premier Sponsor Black Friday deal, but I hope to reach Premier status one day! Happy Thanksgiving AJ, and to all the S4GRU staff and members! -Anthony

Maybe Sprint could buy up the bits and peices from the different companies that have it? Or at least try to buy it in the areas that Sprint is only gonna be able to put up 3x3 800 LTE?
