  1. So it's a good sign for local Sprint that I can see eHRPD with over 2 MBs download speed (a nice increase over the usual ~.170) at my house with the GF's Photon Q?

    (I don't directly have a Sprint phone, just 5 that I pay for on my account)

     

    I thought that there was Sprint 4G LTE in Wichita Falls? Was there Saturday and didn't sniff any at all.

     

    http://www.sensorly....t/lte_310sprint All that mapping was done by me over the last 4-6 weeks (for those not in Wichita Falls, TX, search 76301). Only exception to this is from Fisher Rd out to just outside Henrietta. Someone else did that.

     

    Evidently there are no LTE antennas installed yet at the Kemp & Kell location (on top of the building) and the location on Jacksboro Hwy and Southwestern Parkway (the tower in James Lane Air Conditioning's equipment yard)

     

    As for speed, I've seen 25-30Mbps on 4G from the tower on Pearlie & Burkburnette Rd, and in that same area, about 2.5Mbps on 3G BEFORE the upgrade to LTE.

  2. Ok, LTE is partially active in Wichita Falls. I was surprised by seeing the LTE symbol on my HTC EVO 4G LTE while at work (and its near the back fence at work, along the river), got about 6Mbps there. Found the signal near Sheppard AFB real quick before losing it again with about a 8.5Mbps speed. Not entirely sure which tower is active, but its pretty cool.

  3. Believe me. I know. I have been in Wichita Falls twice in the past week. This is a report of the schedule, not actuals. I kind of resent that you would question whether our data is true. It is a true schedule. Whether the work gets done on schedule or not is a whole 'nother issue. That's out of our control.

     

    That's why the past due sites are shown, so you can see the previous months sites that didn't get done on time also. We here at S4GRU just report the data. We cannot control Sprint's destiny.

    Ah, ok. Well, It definitely will be nice when it does go live. What I don't like is how Sprint has concentrated most of the data service by the Air Force base. I can get up to 2.8Mbps on 3G at the intersection of Burkburnett Rd and Sheppard Access Rd. Yet in my house, I can barely get a consistent 200kbps or more (over by the Wichita Falls flyover). I have an HTC EVO 4G LTE (running modded stock rom from the xda-developers website)

  4. The blue sites are the ones scheduled to have LTE go live in August. The red ones are from previous months that were scheduled to be completed, but did not come live.

     

    Previous months have had a completion rate about 50%.

    Not terribly sure how true this is. I live in Wichita Falls, and havne't encountered a single LTE area in town. I did see them working on a tower a week or two ago.
