I was incredibly disappointed when I found that out. I kept hoping to get the Spark update so I could go hunting for LTE TDD carriers, but alas...
-
You know, there was another thread discussing this already... http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/5184-carrier-wide-unlocking-policy/
-
This is total bull crap. Not only is there no such inability by Sprint to unlock devices for domestic GSM/UMTS/LTE carriers, they are outright lying to everyone saying it'll take two years to implement.

It's not selling the wireless operations. It'll get a lease back on the spectrum and shut down the network before handing control of the licenses back to Verizon.

Sprint to join Rural Operators Roaming Hub (CCA and RRPP thread)
Conan Kudo replied to marioc21's topic in General Topics
LTEiRA participants cannot participate in the Sprint program due to exclusivity clauses in the deal. And C Spire Wireless does not offer/sell service in Georgia. It does, however, sell and operate service in Memphis, Mobile, and Pensacola. -
It doesn't matter if they want to reband or not. There isn't enough room to actually reband to Band 8, not without eliminating the 915MHz ISM band. And I seriously doubt that would be allowed.
-
Subclasses don't exist in 3GPP. You either fit in a band or you don't. If you don't, you need a new band. The problem is that they need a new band. That's going to make things hard.
-
I just don't know what to pick! I've got a @TMobile Galaxy S4 now, should I JUMP! to the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy S5 or the @HTCUSA One (M8)?
-
The issues are no worse than what Sprint has had to put up with. At least in T-Mobile's case, it knows that there's light at the end of the tunnel in the next three years. Sprint doesn't have any such assurance with SMR rebanding, unfortunately.
-
Subclasses don't have to use the same duplex gap, or really anything, do they?
-
Hmm. It appears HTC has renamed the HTC One to the "HTC One (M7)" now... I suppose it's for the HTC One (M8) coming tomorrow.
-
Duplex gap is wrong. The Cellular 900 band has a 45MHz duplex gap (just like Cellular 850). The band is merely shifted up because Europe couldn't release the Cellular 850 band when GSM launched in 1989.
-
I'm rather amused by the fact that "Paul Bunyan Telephone Cooperative" actually exists. Not so amused about AT&T amassing more spectrum.
-
I wish @askdes' video of the Galaxy S5 box had been in better focus so I could read supported bands listed on the reverse side of the box.

The 1695-1710 MHz block is next to AWS-1 1710-1755 MHz uplink spectrum. It can't be used for downlink CA effectively. Maybe uplink CA. But there are some murmurs of pairing it with 2095-2110MHz to extend the AWS band even further. 1695-1710 / 2095-2110 + 1755-1780 / 2155-2180 would extend the AWS band by a total of 2x40MHz. The total AWS band would effectively be 2x85MHz, the largest FDD paired band used globally. If Dish has its way, the 3GPP could even wind up authorizing the creation of a band that covers 1695-1800 / 2095-2200 MHz just so that Dish's AWS-4 band would be usable within a single band class (intra-band CA). Such a band would be by far the largest FDD band authorized for cellular network use, at 2x105MHz.

And before anyone suggests SG-LTE, I will stop speaking to anyone who thinks that's a great idea. Battery life and cost are negatives to it.
