theres a discounted premier sponsorship deal?

I know i said that already.. But as compared to what? There is no v4gru or a4gru to make similar accusations or base analysis of one carrier against the others.. It's easy to make negative assertions only on sprint. Because you don't know where the others are lacking because there is no in depth analysis. To prove that sprint is doing it worse than the other guys.. They tell you a market is complete even though we all know there is gaping holes in coverage.. But since I can'tgo to site and say llooks here this market should have been complete.. You seem to think youcan do it here as pproof that sprint is lacking.. It'snot. You give other carriers. Benefit of doubt. But trash sprint trying to use s4gru's words against sprint. You know the same holds true for other carriers but won't make that claim.. Awfully disingenuous and pretty dishonest.

You are basing sprints completion as compared to other carriers in other cities.. Comparing it to what? There is no s4gru for other carriers so vzw and att can tell you oh we are done but you know from being here that sprint can't do that. I know for a fact there are gaping holes in vzw 4g in cities they have announced as complete. But alas how could that be? They are complete.. Oh wait there is noone keeping them honest! So you are willing to bet... That there are unforeseen issues slowing down sprints deployment. You use the fact you can see exactly the deployment. (though if there was no s4gru you wouldn't know any better and sprint would have said those markets are done and you couldn't argue any differenrt) Now with the exception of massive weather abnormalities like 3 blizzards that hit Chicago last winter.. A superstorm named sandy.. And the noreaster behind her. And a tornado season that wrecked tornado alley.. Seasons summer or winter average out as a whole. Winter as a whole didn't hurt the deployment but then focus on areas down to not just market but neighborhood deployment you say weather effects as a whole (which isn't true) but say deployment in mature markets aren't good enough and a sign sprint and their contractors inability and incompetence to get things done. Your seemingly only point is that you think and are willing to bet based on in depth analysis you can only find for one company in comparison to the others that sprint has hit bumps in the road for their deployment and that sprint will hit other snags that's a good bet.. Anyone can make that bet.. I'd say the biggest thing to hit everyone at this point would be in some markets where all three big boys are building out there is and will be some hybrid cable shortages... Slowing down back haul You will focus on sprint saying that that is a sign of incompetence won't focus on the others because you're a negative Nancy for sprint don't know why don't care.. Even though same things are happening with vzw and att.. Would be great if we could see how superstorm sandy and blizzards effected the macromatket in cities you mentioned but till there is a v4gru or an a4gru no way to prove it.. So you go ahead and make easy bets with nothing but strawman accusations and assertions I mean how hard is it to say in an enterprise where you rebuild an entire network from the ground up adding thousands of miles of cable working on 39 thousand plus sites that but with this place you know when each are worked on how much of a leap is it and how hard is it to say there would be delays(same delays everyone else has to deal with) wow you are a seer a prophet buy a lotto ticket.. Well not really.. You just go to great lengths to be a negative Nancy I don't know the reasons I don't know if you are trolling for the other carriers... Focusing on only sprint cause your either an att or vzw fanboy I don't know if you are truly just a disgruntled sprint customer that once your neighborhood gets 4g you will fade away never to be seen from again.. Or if you just like being contrary.. Either way your analysis is off. You have gone to great lengths to say sprints build out is lacking but with no analysis of the other guys to this level you know there is no way for others to disprove. And once a a big storm hits you can say look at the jersey shore why is their deployment so far off. It's easy to go to the micro and macro level when you can't do the same for others. Keep comparing sprints build out to vzw and att even though it's not apples to apples.. Or oranges.. And using the info you find here and only here to point out problems only in sprint but not fairly for others. What sprint is doing on just an engineering level is extraordinary but negative Nancys will always poo poo on others parade. No matter how much evidence there is that it's sunny out.

A few things wrong with this strawman. One sprint was first with 4g they went with wimax .. It's not a bad technology we would have been very happy withjit.. Had clearwire not shit away the money.. By the time sprint finally had to pull ties and go with lte att vzw.. Not so much T-Mobile since they were calling 3g and a half 4g until finally they couldn't get away with that anymore.. But far later in the game. Att and vzw already had back haul in place and also didn't have to deal with clear wire that's the biggest thing.. Att and vzw didn't get into the game till much later.. Was not vested in a different tech with contracts in place.. To compare their lte build out to sprints isn't even apples to oranges it's apples to groundhogs.. Not similar..

Ugh.. On one hand you say we'll you have more info than me... Then in same sentence you say but.. If you base it on this other thing... Let me pull a negativeright out of my ass.. And winter didn't slow things down last year but this year I guess you think somehow it will be different.. You are a rolling ball of negativity.. Here in phx and other warm weather states not only would it(if it did at all) not slow things down but would speed things up.. Stop being such a negative Nancy... AL isn't the only contractor in this game.. As far as they leaving 3G 3g for a while I'd rather have it that way.. Why have 4g active without the back haul to fulfill it? That's like having access to a t1 line but connected to a 56 k Modem ooooh I have 4g wow well its only 3G speeds till I have the enhanced back haul.. But im keeping up with the Jones I can say I have "4g" /rantover

This rumor happened last year.. And oh it was false then... Unless we have the day after tomorrow. Type freeze lightning I imagine this winter will be like lastvyear

Shouldn't you ask the developers of that rom?

cox isnt the only player screwing us here century link has been abysmal as well al contractors are getting these towers up and a pretty good clip but if the backhaul is back logged there is nothing they can do to speed up the 4g acceptance

While on the surface chet seemed like a piece of crap...

Doesn't mean they can't confirm more.... As they become available

Well are still talking about electromagnetic spectrum.. Whether its infrared or ultraviolet. Or everything in between its still going to be limited to its specific spectrum and a crunch as more frequencies are involved.

The real truth finally comes out... he had to commit this crime so he could get his therapy thinking if he is in jail for 35 years his dad cant kill him for ^^^^ that

i guess even amazon realilzes anything is better than att lol

false start?? its only been a week now in a month and its just two sites then we talk but a week really???

see phoenix lol.. we are dealing with just that... about half of phoenix available sites are nv 3g complete and so far we have two islands of lte... so your problem is our problem lol in fact similar questions have been brought up in our threads. we have people connected to a nearby 1xrtt and trying to figure out if the lte they are connected to several miles away is actually the lte site that we know about, or... another unknown site.. because when that op went to see the site couldn't connect but he did get lte 4 miles away in that case we were relatively sure that its tower he tried to connect to and not an unknown one, and was just the tilt of the panels...

only 4g site accepted or only 4g site period we've had them come online before being technically accepted before

Don't forget kenny g lol

no i didnt say 4g before lte... tmobile was saying that their hspa hspa+ networks were 4g when in fact they were 3.5g it wasnt a total leap to 4g yes it was faster but not technically 4g

they tried that with wimax.. now of course wimax wasnt the issue clearwire was but after that episode going to what everyone else had or was going to was a much better idea than taking another leap of faith

tmobile said they had a 4g network before they technically had one lol

Remember that you can be on 1xrtt on one tower and lte on another.

radios have been around for a while now... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guglielmo_Marconi whether its a phone or a ham set the principles are the same... your phone is going to be fine and if the tower is properly grounded so will they.. so make a new tin foil hat everything is going to be fine

theres so much more to network visiion than just the turning on of LTE... in fact equipment is updated on half the towers in phoenix mega metro super plex. The problem is the glaciers pace that cox and century link is installing the necessary backhaul so you can use the lte equipment on the towers.. they could have fired up the lte as soon as they were accepted but without the backhaul you may have a really fast connection to the tower but 3g backhaul bottle necking the process.. its like fighting a fire with a garden hose.. it may be connected to a hydrant you may have plenty of pressure but unless your hose is big enough you aint getting it done (thats what she said)

beginning stages?? they have been at this since november actually first permits were granted in october... the first LTE may have been lit up recently but that doesnt mean that its just getting started
