Yuhfhrh

If they really want to give things away for free, we might as well take them all and hand them out to S4GRU users! Edit: Mine just passed validation too.

I'm ordering two! lol

I'm pretty sure Sprint will have different coverage maps, it will probably work like it does now for LTE and Wimax. Different coverage maps for different devices.

Sprint surely won't have the phone hold onto 1900 at -120 dBm when a stronger 800 signal is available, so hopefully the values they set won't need to be tinkered with.

I have a feeling half of the Sensorly mappers on Sprint will buy tri-band devices almost immediately lol

Went to a Sprint corporate store, and the manager said I still could sign up with the old everything data plans if I wanted. He doesn't know what's going on with the EPRP plans though.

http://sprint.com/sero They were Sprint's employee referral plans. It stood for "Everything Plus Referral Program".

At least they can't online. I tried signing up for it, and when I got to the part to choose my plan, these new plans were the only option.

I'm a little surprised with the removal of the EPRP plans (for new customers.) I wonder if they will get new revamped plans later, or if they are just going to drop them for good.

Exactly, at that point I would just start buying my phones outright. I just hope they don't do something like, "All Tri-band LTE devices are only compatible with the new My Way plans."

I feel like rolling the dice. It seems like SERO and the employee referral plans are safe for now... but at the same time it just feels like any day now Sprint will say, to get a subsidy you'll have to bump up to the current eprp plan (which at $70/month isn't too bad)

I'm waiting for the Galaxy Note 3 too, but now I'm wondering if I should go ahead and upgrade now to a GS4 to be safe, then sell it when the GN3 comes out.

I feel like you've done this before

If they had sensorly mapping, I would go visit them in jail lol

In the future, would it be possible that Sprint could refarm a 5x5 block of their PCS A-F for LTE (to support earlier devices), and then combine G and H together for 10x10?

Do what I do, and only add the tethering option when you need it. If I need to tether, I'll add it to my account and then remove it when I'm done. Sprint will prorate it per day. Comes out to like $0.65/day for the 2gb option.

Whoops

Would adding another carrier not help capacity issues? I posted this to suggest another 5x5 carrier could be helpful.

I have direct line of sight with the site (water tower), and my LTE signal ranges from -85 to -95 DBM. Today I couldn't load a picture on an email so I ran this speed test. I tried 3 different servers with similar results. Yesterday at 2:00PM I pulled 15mbps down in the same spot. All neighboring sites have been 4g accepted so I don't think that would be the problem.

I'm tired of this. Softbank/Sprint/Clearwire is the only future I can see Sprint becoming a major competitor. All I can see dish doing is ruining Sprint and wasting spectrum on mobile video.

Please not Dish. If Dish takes over, Sprint will surely become another At&t/Verizon.

I map all the time with my gnex (cm10), and have never had any issues or inaccuracies.

http://www.businessinsider.com/t-mobile-does-have-a-montjact-2013-3?utm_source=mobilesrepublic&utm_medium=referral&utm_term=mobilesrepublic If you get the Equipment plan to pay off your phone, you still have to sign a contract- and the contract even requires having service with T-Mobile. So this really is the same as before. Bring your own device and you can pay prepaid without a contract, or get a "subsidy" and be locked in for two years with the option of paying an "etf" to leave.

My typical usage is about 2GB a month, but twice a year I visit my grandparents for about 2 weeks and they have no internet. We end up using about 10GB of phone data (no tethering.) I chose sprint because I knew I would be using large amounts of data like this on trips. They are the most cost effective.
