Anyone actually received and activated one of these on FreedomPop yet? First impressions? I'm thinking of getting one for LTE hunting since the EVO sucks for that. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4

CDMA 1x (and I think most other modern cell systems) requires GPS time synchronization for the network to actually work properly, hence why each site has a GPS antenna on it (and partially why AIRAVEs need an occasional GPS lock, in addition to regulatory compliance). Whether the hardware actually uses the position information from GPS in addition to the time, or just uses something hardcoded, I don't know. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4

My guess is that offset coordinates are favored for E911, since they are statistically more likely to be close to the device location than coordinates based on the tower location. In theory that should make A-GPS location acquisition faster/more accurate for E911 purposes, although in practice I'm not sure it helps that much compared to other, more precise A-GPS methods like wifi-based positioning and having a cached ephemeris for the GPS and GLONASS constellations.

I did some mapping this afternoon in both Macon and Warner Robins. The site by Bonaire Middle School may also be on too; I detected what should be its LTE cell ID while driving around. Also, RRUs are finally up on the site on Carl Vinson, so hopefully LTE will be on there soon (then again RRUs have been up for months on most of the other towers too). Meanwhile in Macon the site at Coliseum North finally has RRUs up. LTE is now live on the sites at Eisenhower & Pio Nino and on Hawkinsville Rd near Industrial Hwy; you can get continuous LTE now on 247 all the way from Vineville to the airport. EDIT 8/20: Bonaire site is definitely on; I mapped quite a bit of LTE around there this evening. I also briefly picked up the ID for the Huntington Village/Wellborn Rd site (near RAFB's MLK gate), but it doesn't seem to be accepting connections directly yet.

Pretty much, although my understanding is there can be a second, lower-level lock that blocks using US GSM/UMTS networks (eg AT&T and T-Mobile) even if the phone/device hardware supports the US frequencies.

Sprint LTE Coverage Maps via Sensorly
lordsutch replied to S4GRU's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
People have taken their Sprint phones there and switched them on, apparently. Sensorly's maps include roaming coverage. -
As of today, make that 6 in Richmond County according to site acceptance reports. That said, accepted doesn't always mean live; several sites in the Macon-WR area were accepted for weeks before actually going live for user equipment.
