SCP started working on my V50 again woot!

I hit that update button as soon as I see it [emoji12]

SCP works on my V60 with Android 10 but it's completely useless on my V50 and G8 with Android 10. So things don't look promising.

Mike, I've had to switch to cell mapper which updates info very rapidly and accurately like SCP used to. The developer of it is having to work within the same confines you are, is it possible for you to find out what makes cell mapper work correctly even on Android 10 and implement it in SCP? I really prefer your app for it's simplicity.

I'm not exactly sure of the reason yet.. there were no issues until I started "targeting" Android 10 in my compiler. I had not changed the core functionality of the app, so it must be something that changed in the way Android 10 behaves. Unfortunately, as you have experienced, I have not found a perfect solution yet. The solution I implemented in the most recent update apparently fixes it for some users, but not all. Complicating things further is that I do not experience the problem at all on my Pixel 3 or Pixel 4, and there are no error messages being logged by any devices -- it's just not updating. Oddly, if you launch another similar app (like Cellmapper), SignalCheck starts updating regularly. I am stumped so far!

I think Mike said 5g support was coming in the next big update.

after the most recent update on pro.
the readings are frozen. they dont change.
even after phone switches to diff lte band, the app still shows the previous connected band.

There are those who see technology as magic and then there are those of us who see it as science and try to understand the how and why it works.

I got frustrated enough to go to the nuclear option. Full factory reset and did not restore from a backup. SCP is now refreshing every 5 to 10 seconds, not quite the every second I prefer but still much more usable than when it takes several minutes. I wish I could identify specifically what is causing this. I don't think it is intended behavior if it is indeed the result of power management.

I have bad news to report. After a device restart my previous issue has returned. Signal bars and SCP no longer updating correctly [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24]

I've spotted 64t64r equipment on several towers over there past few months and when connected to them my phone will display 5g but I can confirm through field test that 5g is not actually active. They are configured as 3x ca on the DL and only single channel uplink LTE currently. Is Sprint planning to flip the switch once the majority of the towers are upgraded?

So, my V50 got the Android 10 update and scp is now working like normal again. I'm so relieved and happy!

Do you have it exempt from battery optimization? If not, try that

I can drive several miles without it updating. I've been trying to pay attention and it looks like the signal strength bars on the notification bar aren't changing either. So it does look like it's an issue with the phone rather than scp.

I've notice mine can be slow to update sometimes. By any chance are you using split screen?

On both my Sprint LG V50 and Unlocked Amazon LG G8 information on signal check only refreshes on launch or under some Network change conditions. Basically it's almost always displaying very stale info.

Sent from my LM-G820 using Tapatalk

Mike, did you ever figure it what was causing network information not to update on new LG devices? It only refreshes on launch or when certain changes happen to the connection. SCP has been basically useless to me for the past 6 months 😭

Is that by Mercy?

It looked like something is going right with the tower on Southeast 15th and Air Depot. It's one of the ones with three panels: a dual band, a 1900, and a 2600 mini macro per sector.

The low band is only overloaded when it is improperly being used for capacity rather than coverage. This is especially absurd when the provider has more than enough spectrum in the high band and can drop a cheap mini macro in the spots where low band is taking a beating. Too bad all the mini macro equipment is going on already over spaced macro sites rather than filling in the numerous trouble spots in my market.

There is a newer QC 3.0 version of the Chotech that is higher capacity in the same form factor. Something interesting I have noticed is that it will charge at up to 2.6 amps from a non quick charge adapter, which is basically the same speed it will charge from a quick charge port (9v 1.5a). There is no USB C port on it though, just a lightening input for iPhone users.

For anyone experiencing the battery drain issue I dida factory reset and that solved it. Kind of a pain in the rear to do, but thankfully I can make it far longer that 10 hours before the battery dying. As of right now I'm at 45 hours unplugged with 2.5 hours of screen on time.

It makes a lot more sense if this is basically warranty service being provided by Ericsson. I was operating under the impression that Sprint was paying for the swap when it would have been a much better investment to deploy band 41 and then worry about upgrading the band 25 equipment later.

Only two non contiguous 10 MHz (5 MHz FDD) blocks would be limited to six CDMA2000 carriers. A 20 MHz (10 MHz FDD) contiguous block can support up to seven CDMA2000 carriers -- because of the need for fewer guard bands.

Sometimes trying to understand Sprint logic makes my head hurt.

Sprint sold 10MHz of their PCS B license to deathstar back in 2009. 6 CDMA carriers is all that can be deployed on PCS. So split mode would not be a bottleneck ever unless they acquired more PCS spectrum.
