  1. You know, I think that I got confused. It's actually LTE 2500, B41. Sorry about that. Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  2. That's where Signal Check Pro shows the little 2 by the 25, right? I routinely see that in Eden Prairie, where I work. Sent from my LGLS991 using Tapatalk
  3. I live south of the river, but I work in Eden Prairie across Shady Oak Road from Wooddale Church which is where I was referring to in my previous post. Outstanding 4G reception inside the building!
  4. As of Monday morning, I now get LTE (-99 to -102 DB) inside my office at work. Tested at about 11Mbs down.
  5. IMHO The network just keeps getting better. There's a "tower" on a building right by my office, and I get the best reception of anyone at work. However, no 4G yet. But, today on the way home I was stopped at the light right by that building and there were lines spray-painted on the road with the word SPRINT spaced out all the way across. I gotta think that's for the fiber line that they need to run through to get that site up and running. Anyone have any insight on the subject?
  6. Well, I finally got a chance to check the wife's Photon Q in LTE. Once again. it was not connected, and I had to toggle airplane mode to get it to work. Once it did connect, it was blazing fast! I guess I'm going to have to take it in and have a tech check it out.... Stay tuned!
  7. So, I got a text from Sprint today saying "We're building you an all new network! See how this affects your coverage at http://sprint.us/rnr" Did anyone else get this message? Does this mean that they'll be working on my area specifically or is this a generic message for the entire metro area? Basically, they're saying, "...expect bad coverage for a while until ..." I've seen other posts here eluding to reduced signal, and such so I have already prepared myself for that. Although, I can't say I have really had any problems, and I have actually been experiencing more and more 4G south of the river lately. Also, I work in Eden Prairie and just a few blocks from work I get 4G for about a mile on the way home.
  8. OK, we were in another VERY strong LTE area tonight during my son's baseball game. Her Photon lost the signal immediately when we hit 4G. I toggled Airplane mode and it came back (Like 27MB/s). Once the phone went to sleep it was all gone, just like before. After that happened, I did the re-provisioning, and it did come back, but I didn't check it after it went to sleep. So, I'll now watch it for a while (we're heading out of town for a week). I'll report my findings after we get back, assuming hit another 4G area along the way.
  9. My wife and I recently spent the weekend in a pretty decent 4G (LTE) area, and while my LTEvo was rockin' it the whole time my wife's Photon Q would completely lose its connection. I had to either toggle airplane mode or reboot the phone to get it to find a signal again. Even if we left the area and fell into good ol' 3G it would not respond unless I did that. Of course, she thinks I have the magic touch and tech simply will not work for her unless I'm around. She does have the latest update. However, I did not reset the phone. I didn't feel like doing all the work, and I don't want to hear about, "Where's all my stuff?" Has anyone else had this problem? Is it something that can be remedied short of a hard reset?
  10. If you had to switch to a new device today and your only choices were the HTC One and the Samsung GS4, which one would you go with and why?
  11. The way this weather is going, it'll be Christmas before the work here is complete. That's pretty soon, right?
  12. I'm not that well read on the subject, so I wasn't unsure what the LTE Engineering screens are. So, I headed to Google, and found this: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/2040-bars-lie-for-lte-signal-strength-how-to-determine-your-actual-lte-signal-strength/ Which is probably what you are referring to. Thanks!!
  13. It's too bad your company doesn't spot you a VZW phone for you to use while your in MT.
  14. OK, I finally got over myself, and re-installed Sensorly today, and will do my best to have it on while driving around. I actually already know that my phone will connect to LTE automatically. I have seen it twice. Once in East Bethel and once in Saint Louis Park. Cool, right? The head scratcher is that I work in Eden Prairie, and have been in the purple areas, but have yet to see the 4G indicator around there (even closer to Chanhassen, where it is dark purple). I guess my previous post was more about the fact that we know there is a signal in the area, yet they have not had it available while I have been there. With that other app, I could see that there was a LTE signal, but no 4G. Is that even possible? Maybe that other app was lying...
  15. I installed the SignalCheck Lite app the other day, and noticed that I was getting LTE signal sporadically throughout the day in Eden Prairie. No 4G, but the LTE bar would lite up for several seconds at a time. Then today, nothing...nothing at all. I'm not sure that it means anything, but from what I gather things seem to happen on Thursdays.
