Thou shall knock on wood, or thou must wait an additional fortnight before enjoying the graces of NV and LTE.  

 Let's hope for the fortnight! After looking at the maps today, I think it's going to be another 30 days.. Let's hope for tomorrow, and plan for next month! This is funnnnnnnnnnnn...... Best wishes to all of you. Santa

He said March 6th and that we should be sending St Paddys Day selfies on 4G. They were working on the tower at 470 on the northside of Chatfield today again. Coverage at my house has been dismal to excellent in the last week. Curiously I was in Highlands Ranch this weekend and kept picking up 1x800 from Lakewood. I live really close to Lakewood and never pick up 1x800 here. Out of alignment panel maybe?

Change is a comin'....Now- I got a faint, short-lived connection(B41 -122dBM) just as I posted the prev. message.

Its almost the same towers they just got 1x800 accepted, but still nice

yes. same towers, but got new voice accepted.. Houston went Spark 4 GLTE a month ago. They had over 300 1X800 sites accepted last week, a month after they went live. I am pretty cranked about getting it acepted before Lte is even live here......

How many of you checked the accepted sites this week for colorado on our other thread? Huuuuuge! It's comming gentlemen... (I'd like to say boys and girls, but I don't see any female participation in this...... ?????) Santa

Was that forced lte or just regular lte running in northglenn? Thanks!

would one of the new spark cities been in mid America a little to the west go with 3 answers. No way. in your dreams. You nailed it.

From Hamden about 1 mile east of Sheriday to Wadsworth, no phone signal. (Normally great signal) Signal checker reverted from HRPD to LTE with no signal for the entire time. We have a tower at the King Soopers on Sheridan that looks to be Sprint, but I didn't see anyone working on it, at 8:45 am this morning. Weird!

Lte. I live off Parker and 225. We've got great Lte signals here. They just aren't turned on our phones yet. Check Sensorly and you will see my speed tests. I don't know when they are going to go Live, but from what I've seen at this area, we are going to rock and roll.

check sensorly on your cell phone and you will see speed tests. When I do it on my home computer, I only get the purple coverage area and no speed test.

Anybody find LTE near Aurora?

Yes, I'm on 3G.  I was happy with my 3G speed (it wasn't crazy fast but reliable) up until the LG G2 Spark firmware update.  Now I get extremely slow if any data connection.   I used to be able to get LTE in Golden and Idaho Springs but my phone doesn't find it anymore.  A co worker who lives at 58th and Washington in Golden has the same issue.  He had great LTE speeds and now gets nothing, his phone doesn't even ring.  He's got a LG G2 as well.

Before you did your update your phone was recieving 1 band of 4GLte, with no problems. When you did your update, you gave your phone 2 more bands, 26 and 41, but what Sprint didn't tell you, was that we are haveing ECSFB issues in the Denver area when we go to use our Spark phones. All towers in our area have to get upgraded for us to use our new tri band phones on 4GLTE. Sprint is in the process of doing this right now. There is a thread in our group discussing it. Type ECSFB in the search engine at the top. Best wishes.

ecsfb thread

call back and ask 3g network vision accepted, 4glte accepted, 1x 800 accepted or which combination

Your statement needs to be "In my experiences with 1x800, the call quality was atrocious". Unless you have been in every single Sprint market that has 1x800 deployed AND have made phone calls in each of these markets to test the call quality, then there is absolutely no way that you can make a conclusion for the entirety of the nationwide Sprint network that the call quality of 1x800 is atrocious. There is a whole plethora of reasons as to why your call quality may not have been up to par.

Just FWIW, I was just on a chat with Sprint working on data connection issues and the rep said that at 4:30 MST some towers near I25 and Arapahoe would be completed.

3g network vision completed and accepted, 4glte completed and accepted or 1X800 completed and accepted?

14 LTE updates in the past week in Colorado... I am probably going to have to break down and go sponsor to see where all the action's at! Santa...

If you do the arithmetic: The original NV 1.0 plan was to upgrade ~39,000 sites for ~$8 Billion.  That works out to just over $205,000 per site.  Since the original announcement, there have been additions for more sites and for B41 LTE & B26 LTE, and also more dollars allocated, so that today I would guess the total estimated cost per site is in excess of $400,000, but that is just a guess, and really doesn't account for the newer plan to have something like 50,000 B41 sites.

Is that the one inside Chatfield SP?

Saw a crew working what looked to be one of our towers on 470 West and Wadsworth Blvd in Littleton Co. about an hour ago.... On another area, what is it costing Sprint on a per tower basis to upgrade the tower? Thanks..

A site was accepted recently near I-70 and W. Colfax.  May be from that site.  Details are available in the Sponsor section on maps.  We post every site acceptance to our maps nearly every day.

I noticed sensorly lit up e470 west at i70 north on i70 to Applewood apple jack ..today. Anyone in the area get 4g naturally?

It was unfortunate. Attitudes make all the difference. 

 

But we move on. This thread still has some great people in here. 

 

And LTE is still coming. This Spring, at the latest.

 

 

As far as the data issues, there are a whole host of things that can cause problems. It could be they are beginning to fire up NV sites, or it could be a network hiccup. It's hard to say.
