I was still locked to 3G this morning and did a ##update and LTE came back. Not sure what that was about
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
ya same thing last night. Did the ##update and connected to lte but was still having problems with lte getting bad ping times though. Not sure what was going on last night.
-
I was getting bad ping up at the towers in Greene tonight making lte pretty unusable between Standarndsville and Ruckersville towers up to route 29 and 33.
-
Lol you all beat me to it today. Was taking a hard core nap since I'm not feeling 100% today but its 55057 on the LG G4 as well.

Not sure if anyone else in the Albemarle/Ch'ville area caught this yesterday like I did. Apparently the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors have approved a new 125' cell phone tower next to Albemarle High School. Been trying to find out some info on what providers are suppose to be going on it. But will def. help with coverage in the area. Gonna keep looking into it today and see if I can find any info. Unless anyone else in my area knows anything about it.

**UPDATE**
I did find that it can hold up to 5 cell phone carriers. But no carrier's have signed on yet or they haven't said what ones have yet. Couldn't find any info yet on which ones have or haven't yet.
This is the company that will be building the tower:

*Update*
I did happen to come across this today. Shows that apparently AT&T orig came forward with the idea. To put the cell phone tower up in that area. No arguments there seeing how it will help coverage with what ever other carriers decide to put equipment on the tower. Hoping that Shentel puts up some stuff for Sprint on the tower considering I do have a hard time holding on to LTE in that specific area of Hydraulic Road where AHS is located at. This was orig. done back in Jan. of this year as well.
This one was posted up on the Albemarle Public School Systems website. Posted back in Dec. 2015. By looking at the PowerPoint Presentation on this. It looks like it wont be to much of an eye sore tbh. Which is a good thing.

That was one of my main concerns was the radiation to the students at the 3 schools. But it will be going in between the football field and baseball field so it will be enough away from the school but not enough away from the fb and bb fields which would be my main concern during sports events at AHS. With the concern that it will be an eye sore. I think it would be best if they did a tree disguise with it when they build it out. Would help it be less of an eye sore.

I did notice one more tower that's gone LTE-active: 0187E9 on Reas Ford Rd. I'll send a SCP log once I've "seen" some more.

Ya haven't been out to Reas Ford Road area since about nov. But that is good in a way. Only could get LTE to stick for a few mins then dropped to 3g the rest of the time. But thats def good news though.
-
I've noticed that, if I'm passing through, the phone will manage to hold onto LTE. However, if I'm stationary there for any time, I lose it. I really wish they would update the antennas on the bank of America right there; they're still 3G only.

Ya that's what was happening with me too.
-
Hey is anyone else noticed at the Kroger area on Barracks Road Shopping Ctr in Ch'ville to be horrible lately for LTE? Was really horrendous today and wasn't like that a couple weeks ago when I was over there.
-
Shentel has had Central Va since the sale of.nTelos went threw back in May.
-
I did notice that the Sprint map was updated yesterday when I looked at it and did notice that Zion's Crossroads was yellow finally. Glad to know they finally got LTE up and running their. They def needed it.
-
OK new prl's are out 55056 on the G4
-
I've noticed a few conversions of old towers, but am keeping an eye out for optimizations, without really knowing what to look for other than improved signal/better speeds

Same here.

I think there might be some upgrades and/or reconfigurations going on in Greene County, Va. Been connecting to the two towers I usually connect too quiet often, (the water tower on 33 and the one on Ford Ave. , but I've also been connecting to a tower that is labeled as Charlottesville, Va 22911, and the other one that is on Bear Den Mountain Trail, Waynsboro. Both the Ch'ville and Bear Den Mountain Trail ones are quiet a distance from my house.
Has anyone heard of any upgrades and/or re configurations going on in Greene County Va or Albemarle County/Charlottesville areas as of lately?

Was it the ZVC update?

New PRL is out. Was on 55054 now 55055. LG G4

Was on B41 at work, and checked for grins. (This is the tower on Jefferson St. downtown C'ville)
I'm grinning! [emoji2]

Ya I've picked up B41 in a few different spots in Ch'ville the past two weeks. I got similar results as what you got.
-
I see Sprint has updated the coverage map for the Ch'ville/Albemarle/Greene areas for LTE.

Just rode by the nTelos at Pantops in Charlottesville. Closed with no lights on but a Sprint sign in the window. I guess it will be reopening and what I saw before was ripping all the old nTelos kiosks out.

If its the one in.the same.shopping center as Christians Pizza I noticed that yesterday as well. With that store it was closed and a Sprint sign up. I know the one uo at the Kholes Dtore Shopping Center I know that has a Sprint sign up as well. Havent checked to see if the one at Shoppers world has a sign up yet or not.
-
The SID either hasn't been changed yet or will not be changed. If Sprint just absorbs the nTelos SID as native and designates that in the PRL, Mike will need to update signal check to show Sprint instead. Signal check uses a static list of SIDs and the corresponding operator.
I'm pretty sure its gonna change. If I do ##data# and then go under advanced under my G4 it use to list my SID as 4379 (nTelos) as my home coverage area before the take over. Then now it reads 4139 (Sprint) as my home coverage area.

That's probably a good call, given that Rio/29th will be a disaster area for a while! [emoji33] Sent from my 0PJA2 using Tapatalk
Ya def a good call there. The 29 rio will be a disaster for awhile. Wonder if that one will be a Corp Store like the one at 29 Rio or not.
