  2. Meanwhile, there were traffic jams and no transit for #USAvNGA but Deadspin ain't whining. #NECorridorProblems http://t.co/24LdDjsmau

  3. I was in Jacksonville for the US-Nigeria game at Everbank Field today and had a somewhat similar, flaky experience. My Nexus 5 even dropped to 1X a couple of times. On the other hand, I did get my first Band 41 sighting. Granted there were 50k+ at the game. Definitely some band 26/41 eCSFB issues around here, particularly along I-295 on the Orange Park/Jax boundary; I also was having eCSFB fallback problems on band 26 on I-10 west of Osceola NF and most of I-75 south of Vienna (bleeding into the Panhandle and Georgia markets). Presumably the Nexus 5's radio just gives up if eCSFB isn't enabled on band 26, instead of trying to use band 25. Funnily enough, Ericsson seems to have gotten eCSFB right around Macon for the most part (I just wish they'd not left all the 3G-only GMOs); I guess the crew up there actually knows what it's doing. Hopefully they'll send them south to fix Jax.

  7. Got a ticket for to see #USMNT in action for #USAvNGA in Jacksonville tomorrow, and a hotel reservation, so I guess I'm going.

  16. Done and done, I think/hope. GSM logging seems to work sitting in the house on my Nexus 4. Can't test the 310150 MNC since I don't have any AT&T SIMs to try (I do have an old H2O SIM lying around, but I'd have to cut it down & don't have a tool), but the logic looks right. I also enabled logging of non-ESMR CDMA sites in case anyone wants to map those for VZW or CSpire or something.
  17. RT @drunkenpredator: Maureen Dowd, setting a standard for being impaired on the job that even I can't hope to meet.

  18. What MCC-MNC is AT&T using in your area? I thought I caught them all but I might have missed one. That's an easy fix. When/if I switch to the Mapbox map framework I can probably make that setting more persistent too. And sure, I can add GSM and WCDMA logging. Shouldn't be much extra work to speak of - just a few LoC.
  19. As you noted, a lot of legacy WiMax has lame backhaul that's not up to Spark or NV standards. Of course it's also possible you're on a legacy unlimited Clear or other WiMax customer that's hogging most of the shared backhaul.
  20. It's not an exclusionary zone per se, just a very strict limit on interference. If Sprint can plop a ESMR site in Buffalo with enough directionality and downtilt that it meets the dBm threshold in Fort Erie, and the handsets won't send a signal that exceeds the threshold, they're welcome to do it today. I don't think it can be done that close to the border, except maybe with an indoor DAS system... but they could probably do it in Rochester away from the lakefront, for example, if they really wanted to. I can't remember exactly what I calculated before, but the limit's something like -137 dBm RSRP on LTE. It's far stricter than what applies to PCS (you can happily sit in the Wendy's in Fort Erie and suck down Sprint EVDO data to your heart's content, and probably G block LTE too these days). But it should be doable in a lot of the "distant" IBEZ like the LA Basin, most of metro Seattle, etc., where you're 30+ miles (50+ km) from the border by flight but still technically in the 100km area. That leaves San Diego, El Paso, Laredo, McAllen, Brownsville, Bellingham, Buffalo, Detroit, and a few other places that are right on the border where ESMR may be a long time coming and bands 25 & 41 may need to be more aggressively used.
  21. Voice-IP interconnection is probably also needed to enable HD Voice, even without VoLTE, since the legacy interconnections don't support end-to-end use of better voice codecs.
  22. Mine reads 1, 2, 3, in that order, but I'd already fiddled with mine before the update. However, I had B41 disabled before and it's enabled now, so either the 4.4.3 update or the Data Profile update I did changed that (although I have no way to tell if it changed the priorities).
