I am not taking his side but he clearly states the only reason he posted is because people were ragging on other networks. so what you are saying is in ur post. its ok to rip on other networks but not sprint? QUOTE FROM nels0300 " I wasn't even going to post in here until I saw folks ripping on people who switch from Sprint, like they insulted your grandmother." This is just my opinion but i think its because people get so offensive (like you) why there are arguments on here. its just his opinion but at the same time it might be true. i didn't read all the posts on this topic (lazy). From what i can see you are the only one offended by his post. I would also note you posted: Like I said previously in another thread and in numerous other Sprint related forums. If a certain carrier is not working out for the customers needs, then that customer should do what is best and go to one that does suit their needs. Personally this is why it took me 2 years to even make an account on this website. all the petty bickering just like what you are doing now. IF he breaks the rules its up to the moderators not you a regular user to go on a crusade and fight anyone who says OMG SPRINT SUXX BRO. I know for a fact many regular users on here use Verizon,AT&T and even Tmobile i have seen them post information like that time and time agian. even having discussions like the whole Verizon AWS stuff. guess what? completely fine because its constructive. and its actually pretty interesting stuff. SO if somone comes on here bashing another provider i would expect the moderators to clean that up as well just like some kid coming on here and saying sprint is the devil and im sure they have. Holey crap! its 7AM and i have been up all night! i am to tired to make a very coherent rant so this is what you get. i hope you understand. orr maby you dont whatever lol.

How do you define useless? what sort of speed are you seeing? because even with LTE as long as its faster than 2Mbps down i would take it anyways because thats still enough to stream music and video. What is the 3G speed like?

Well with the galaxy S4 now coming with Triband support what would the chance be of the Note 3 getting the upgrade? My phone upgrade comes up late next month and really want the note 3.

I was trying to edit my post again because it was the last post here in the thread but i guess that you cannot edit posts either more than once or after a certain time. Anyways after getting back on 1x800 again i switched to CDMA Field test and got the location of the base stations. the location is in St marys ohio and that is like more than 10 miles south west of my location. There is no way i am picking up a signal 10 miles away and holding on to it when there is a tower 3 miles from me and i barley get a signal from it! i am completely baffled by this EDIT: Well i made a test call on it to a friends house and during the call i switched between Signal Check and CDMA Field test and it seemed to hold onto the tower. I am really confused right now. is this even possible? i cant recall if anyone else had reported this sort of range on 1x800 or not. i mean i remember people saying they got better reception but not 10 miles + out from the tower.

I do know this and i saw his thread. i have some money google play but because i have been using CDMA Field test for a lot longer than Signal check i still like using it. Also UPDATE: i did a PRL update and while this did not actually update my PRL i read (on here) that it forces a re scan of the available frequencies the phone can connect to and it again re connected to 1x800 and despite getting a better RSSI at 94dBm it still switched back to my non upgraded tower that gives me a worse signal of 98dBm. i think i am going to look for a PRL that prioritizes 1x800.

CDMA Field test lets me map to the tower i am connected to for free, other than that I like Signal Check alot because of its incredibly simple interface so i keep it open the most.

Thanks. i have downloaded it and will use it in the future. i am pretty excited because 1x800 means that the equipment and base stations are upgraded on the tower and are ready to go for whenever they decide to launch them. Unfortunately the tower i am connected to most doesn't seem like it has been touched yet. i drive past it every once and a while and as far as i can tell it hasnt been touched yet. I just wish i had CDMA field test open instead of Signal check.

here we goo. i found some crappy website on google that resized images but it doesent do it very well LOL

Been lurking here for a year or 2. just wanted anyone in the lima are to know i picked up 1x800 on 2 towers between lima ohio and spencerville ohio. i got screen shots off my phone but i cant pick up 1x800 anymore it seems to have disappeared. EDIT: When i link the images they are to big. how would i resize them so they arnt super huge?
