This will depend on what vendors are available whether its AT&T, CenturyLink, Comcast, or some type of municipal fiber provider and if they will be able to serve T-Mobile's needs. Even if providers are co-located on the same cell site they don't necessarily use the same backhaul vendor, the situation is different at each cell site. I know a few sites around here where Verizon is using Windstream and Sprint is CenturyLink.

About time, T-Mobile been the lesser to all the other wireless providers around here. EDGE is the only technology they have used here for quite a while without any upgrades, this will be welcomed to T-Mobile subscribers around here.

While 1900 LTE is nice, 800 LTE (Band 26) will help with in-building penetration. What you see is what you get with 1900 PCS LTE, 2-4Mb/s is very usable for a smartphone plus I'd use WiFi if it was available instead of LTE, helps keep the network healthy and take some of that unnecessary bandwidth usage and give to someone else who may need it.

The LTE signal is more fragile than 3G EVDO and 1x RTT. 1x RTT and 3G EVDO are measured in RSSI (Recieved Signal Strength Indication) while LTE is measured in RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power) which is LTE specific. -103 RSRP for LTE is a very usable signal while if it was 1x or 3G EVDO it would be very close on the unusable side if measured in RSSI. Also signal levels will vary between you and the cell site depending on obstructions, topography, weather, etc.

Rootmetrics national report
JossMan replied to Rawvega's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
I expect that reliability index, call, text, and data performance to by-pass Verizon by next summer. -

White Chevy Silverados with blue "Ericsson" marking on them, I see them driving all the time around here. Just saw one at a Sprint only site yesterday, I thought it was the guy I knew but was a different employee. He was integrating the 3G at the site that has only been "4G Complete" it should be making its way too your acceptances within a few weeks.

This is what I was trying to explain in my post above , I understand you can't get the frequencies on all phones...i.e Samsung doesn't like to play well.

Mike how about this, under the 1x RTT section of your app you think it would be easier to add "Band." i.e Provider: Sprint Band:1 or 10 Provider: Verizon Band: 0 Isn't the band class something most phones spit out? That way it always says 1x RTT at the top and doesn't switch back and forth to 1x RTT to 1x 800. Just a thought...
-
Mike how about this. 1x RTT 1900 1x RTT 800 That should help people from getting confused and letting them know that both are for voice service. People that do not visit this site that buy your app just to be curious are going to get confused when they see "Sprint 800" under provider thinking they are connected to 800 LTE. Plus with the different MCC-MNC floating around for LTE I would personally leave "Sprint" as the provider.

Data issues nationwide?
JossMan replied to Geesmill's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
Tri-Cities, TN was effected, around 5pm kept getting "data error" on my phone and was only connecting to 1x RTT. This lasted about an hour, if that. -

Mike, I did a double take and saw I was getting a beta update for SignalCheck last night. I have a question regarding the update, when I enable the "Show Site Hints" what is the selection for "Sprint 1" and "Sprint 3" do? "Sprint 1" will not even enable on my phone and when I enable "Sprint 3" it shows the Sectors as "0" instead of 1, 2, and 3 when I go around a site.
