Yep. It's mostly just finishing up Arden / downtown / east city of sacramento now. 

 

Can't fire anything up till every single last site has been converted. 

I sure hope they hurry up. For awhile I had been able to switch my phone to LTE only without eHRPD on (so only data) but havent't been able to for the last 2 months or so. That at least got me through the work day! 

Over the past couple of day's I've managed to trick my Nexus 5 into running on the LTE in Midtown Sacramento and this is the latest speed test I've gotten with a relatively poor signal of -101dbm, can't wait for it to be officially launched!

There is work going on for sure in Downtown especially around the capitol and north side. Lots of expedited work and equipment being installed within the past few weeks along with service disruptions. Other than that I believe Band 41 (TD-LTE / Spark) is up but my Nexus 5 has not been able to snag a signal so far in the 30+ clearwire sites i've visited. Might actually require a firmware update from LG / Sprint to enable B41. 

 

Other than that, work has been going on throughout the summer in the entire sacramento region as we can all see and they've only began recently targeting the City of Sacramento areas. Due to eCSFB gap issues (here : http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-357-nexus-5-and-lg-g2-experience-temporary-sprint-lte-connectivity-issues-due-to-circuit-switched-fallback-technology/) Samsung has been focusing on converting as many sites as possible and will be bringing up sites in clusters instead of individuals one when one is ready. 

Okay, hope it soon. I know on the Sprint site for the Nexus anyway is says Sprint Spark available with future firmware update. Hope it happens soon in the area, I live and work off N street so it would be great. I think I will get my hands on a Nexus then, was just hoping to get band 41 as I decided to wait for the tri-bands over the HTC One. 

How is Midtown Sac looking with 4G, are there any 4G bands available down here yet? Thinking about upgrading to the Nexus 5 or LG G2, can't decide with but both are tri-band devices.
