  1. I live in SW IA a Chat Mobility area (a LTEiRA carrier) and have been on Verizon the last 3 or 4 years. So far I haven’t received the letter yet but a number of customers have. I was in the Council Bluffs VZW store today and they told me the last couple days customers living in this area have been coming in with these letters. I live in this area but most every day I travel out of it to Verizon native coverage so hopefully they’ll leave me be. Verizon needs to change the alpha tag on the phone to indicate roaming and also stop letting people with addresses in this area sign up for service. There is currently no way to tell your off the Verizon network. It even shows the VZW MNC 311-480.
  2. Yea I know. I'm looking for new geographical coverage... Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  3. Yea just no new sites in my area. Iowa and Nebraska. I’ll continue to watch here and locally. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  4. So there’s no signs of them expanding native coverage yet? I’d love to give Sprint a try but they just don’t have the native footprint at the areas I work and live Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  5. Wouldn't you have to have simultaneous voice and data for these services to work? Or is Sprint checking the number on a network level before it rings your phone? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  6. I would sure consider setting up a monthly payment if this forum would cover all carriers. The only reason I keep coming to the site is for the technical discussions about modern LTE networks, tower pictures etc. Sprint does not meet my needs for coverage. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  7. I had to cancel my trip there. I was gonna fly my family there but the weather wasn't conducive to flying in a Cessna Skylane [emoji35]
  8. I'll be in MT next weekend. There is a Chinook tower about a mile from where I'm staying I'll be sure to check for activity. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  9. What does CDMA have to do with it when VoLTE comes into play? Who's Sprint going to use when Verizon shuts off CDMA voice in the future? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  10. Yep I live in SW Iowa and I can't excited about iWireless at all. No coverage for miles around me and then it's edge. Looks like they favor East Iowa Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  11. So carriers can push a roaming profile to specific devices? Obviously they are... How are they doing this, is this pushed to the SIM? Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
  12. I'm having high Bluetooth battery drain on my 5X both on 6.0 and 6.01. Anybody else? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  13. Yes it acts native. Also picked it up on a few more towers from Norfolk to Omaha Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
  14. Yes Tmobile SIM. Phone is Moto X Pure This wasn't on last week. I even had it in LTE only mode. Today it attached to LTE as soon as I got into Norfolk on the normal LTE/HSPA mode. Speeds are so so at 10-15 down. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  15. Looks like roaming on Viaero Wireless LTE is live. Currently in Norfolk,NE. Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
  16. I also had my cell booster on in my truck so that makes sense why I had it for a bit and I'm realizing it lost it when I shut my truck off.. Duh Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
  17. I was in a little rural Nebraska town of Laurel this afternoon and I noticed my T-Mobile phone had LTE on band 12. It stayed on LTE for maybe a minute or so and even connected to data then fell off and went to Viaero's HSPA network. I have attached a screen shot. Can somebody tell me what carrier I was on? Was I on US Cell? Signal check shows I was on T-Mobile but T-Mobile don't have any band 12 in Nebraska Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk Edit: Apparently T-Mobile does have coverage fairly close by in Yankton SD I'm probably connecting to that. Bummer...
  18. Did the data used in those areas show up as roaming on your account? Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
  19. I can see both sides. Does US Cellular have to have VoLTE deployed before Tmobile could use their network for VoLTE? None of VZW's LTEiRA partners have VoLTE yet a VZW subscriber can make a VoLTE call on their networks. Isn't it the natives carrier's core/back end that needs to be upgraded for VoLTE? If so then they just use the roaming carriers for data transport.. I'm sure somebody more knowledgeable then me will chime in [emoji3] Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
  20. Meh...I prefer android phones. I do enjoy using my iPad tho. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  21. Bring it. I can't wait. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  22. What color is the back? Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
