I could not get it to work on my s21 ultra factory unlocked using tello or boost t-mobile*. But I also can not get band selection to lock on to nr71 either, but can with my Samsung a32 5g on T-Mobile. * I am a Sprint second class citizen on T-Mobile stuck with the old biller for eternity (so it seems).

Sprint CDMA is gone from Columbus OH. Like Magic Box, the base signal still exists but the devices no longer connect. Roaming on Verizon is still supported according to UPdownLoAD.

No comment on n70 support

To be more clear I should have stated I have the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra factory unlocked 512GB version for North America with its firmware.

Sometimes the tower management firm wants the old equipment left in place. Reportedly makes it easier to get future tenants through zoning approval (upgrade rather than new). Sometimes the mounts are reused. This is at least what several managers of Crown Castle and American Tower have told me. I have a naked monopole tower near me. It is a strange sight.

Likely true, but then various carrier's 3g shutdowns were supposed to occur since 2019. AT&T was still alive when I last checked a few weeks ago. The real benefit for T-Mobile occurs when they shut down the Sprint network including LTE, currently set for June 30. Iirc T-Mobile has been telling financial analysts this shutdown will occur this summer.

The Samsung A32 5g factory unlocked is not affected by n7 likely since it has not been upgraded to Android 12 yet. 1x800 is still alive. My LG G2s (and G4 and v20) with Android 5 etc do see this upgrade. Would be good if you could filter out these type of devices if easily done until 1x800 dies with all carriers world wide. Swipe refresh worked on samsung a10e, Moto g7 power, T-Mobile Revvl.

Thanks. Yes the engineering screen shows n41. The S21 ultra works fine. Removed typo "not".

n7 still appearing with latest version on samsung galaxy a32 5g with android 12. Swipe feature works. Log sent. Samsung s21 ultra does show solid n41 connection on T-Mobile through Boost Mobile. Note: fixed typo by removing "not".

Yes as well.

Still have B26 in Columbus, OH, but only seeing one neighbor. Might be down to just a handful in this metro.

Correct, both n77 and n78 enabled on unlocked version, T-Mobile MVNO sims support both.

https://www.lightreading.com/open-ran/dishs-5g-targets-40m-smartphone-customers-and-20-of-enterprise-market/d/d-id/777467? Dish will be starting a new brand for 5g. Unmentioned is how they will get their Boost Mobile customers ultimately to move over. Perhaps fearing scale issues or is this a recognition that they have put these customer through too much already? Maybe they want to cleanup their independent dealer network, many of whom have been clueless/unsupported during prior sim/carrier changes? I was hoping for a highly intelligent roaming arrangement to seamlessly add capacity where and when needed to their 5g network by selecting the best available other network through AT&T or T-Mobile while also factoring in cost much like what TracFone had promised before being gobbled up by Verizon.. Maybe I am just getting too far ahead.

https://www.fiercewireless.com/5g/dish-explains-costly-phone-choice-its-new-5g-network Definitely leaning your way. When they only have one or two phones to test, you wonder why the delay?

I had not seen that quote. Was hoping the phone might have special firmware that enabled n70. Moto models xt2213 and xt2215 cleared FCC with that support two months ago thus likely available around this time. Perhaps announced on Tuesday meeting for investors.

Not certain about that. Would love to know the model varient/ fccid of what they will be handing out. press does such a horrible job reporting on bands supported. Agree on the s22. The modem can be more easily reprogrammed.

Also occurring in strong signal area. Diagnostics sent. Connection pulled 250/7.

With latest SCP plus Android 12 update to Samsung Galaxy A32 5G (includes 5GUC in status bar), SCP is reporting band nr7 (FDD 2600) plus for status bar and neighbors. *#0011# reports it as n41, same as cellmapper. Coming in at -116 rsrp. B2 is at -126 rsrp. Not getting good speedtests when this happens, so could be a failed connection.

I analyzed some of the early cellmapper finds of Dish in Las Vegas and found some were likely using Boost Mobile T- Mobile sims and not the more recent Boost Mobile AT&T sims. With a regular T-Mobile sim you can easily see other plmns operating in your area. I have not seen 313 340 yet.

Yes, spotted that in Cellmapper around Las Vegas, San Diego, and CO a while back iirc. Good to know it is still the same. Trying to get a feel for when they fir these sites up versus start the beta.

Las Vega reported to go public today:https://www.axios.com/dish-network-5g-las-vegas-12d23748-ea65-4efc-b7be-e6c7fbec270a.html

On my Samsung, I go to settings, connections, mobile networks, network operators. Then unchecked automatic and it will list the networks and plmns it sees. I currently have 8 total. With extra for T-Mobile, Sprint, and AT&T.

A lot of Dish sites here in Columbus OH. No Genesis notice yet. No new plmns either. Are you seeing a new plmn yet?

What part of Texas does this cover?
