Post on previous page makes me believe no, it can't do either. They only have the G Block 5x5, 5 MHz D and 5 MHz E block. As long as cdma is active they can't do much with their PCS there, but Houston seems to be getting quite a few small cells.

The threshold is -115 dBm, once the signal goes below to -116 dBm the signal indicator fills up.

Has anyone been in a fringe area of B41 but the network bars show full signal strength? It obviously does not work like it would under an actually excellent signal. It's that a phone error or a tower error. This is happening on two different phones in the same area (S7 and G6). The coverage is from what I can tell 2 clear sites and 1 Sprint 8t8r. The Sprint site and one of the clear sites is giving me that reading. While the weak clear signal is giving the better performance. It's weird.

I wish At&t was doing vectoring, I might reconsider them for my service if they offered 100 Mbps. G.fast as far as all the things I've read is most useful for apartment buildings. Saves them from having to rewire buildings. Fiber is the way to go but comparing 40k for vectoring to 250k plus for deployment of fiber at every neighborhood, Wallstreet would lose it. If you have anything available higher than 10 Mbps you probably have fiber to the node, in everything I've seen I have never encountered T3 ATMs at these DSL sites. Mostly up to 8 T1s. Maybe bonded pairs for up to 100 Mbps ethernet at rural sites where fiber is too expensive, but even those are going away with the Connect America Fund.

So I guess they're still tinkering with the cell sites in the area. I'm sitting on the second floor of my house with a stable -110 dbm band 41 signal while yesterday it was all over the place and in previous months it was only blips of B41. Luckily it's a 8t8r site with 3 carriers and that just pushed a speedtest to near 40 mbps down and 1 up. Once I get the MB it's going to do wonders for the vicinity.

Just from what he posted there are at least 6 sites going up over the next 18 months including 1 east of I-25. 1 of the south side sites seems to be a colocation with Verizon that recently got shot down by NIMBYs in the area, last I read about it anyway.

CTL has a lot of fiber to the node in a major portion of the legacy Q markets. They're in the process of upgrading a lot of their DSL Network to vectoring equipment so they can push 100 Mbps to a portion of their customers, because of distance limitations. I would hate for Sprint to buy CenturyLink, as the red tape is horrendous and most of the company still follows either CTL guidelines or Qwest guidelines for design/construction/capital expenditures like 2 different companies. Add Sprint's Tier 1 land line service and everyone would be calling this Nextel 2.0. No, thanks. Not to mention it's likely that CTL already serves Sprint cell sites wherever they offer service as a main service provider.

Wouldn't that be a typical setup of sites broadcasting B25/B26/1x800/cdma?

Are you going to hit all the towers that had permits today?

Seems like they are going through and installing equipment on the permits that showed up last year, This one was permit PZPC16-00171.

Does this apply to the entire network or just the old Huawei Clear sites?

No issues here, at least on the data part.

Been picking up plmn 311940 this morning at home. It shows up as Sprint ** in signal check pro.

Well Movistar only ever gave me 3G so even though Movistar is present in the area I was getting fully unthrottled band 2 LTE at up to 94 Mbps down and 23 up, not from Movistar. I could even stream live TV from Spectrum. Latency was acceptable at 190 ms .

Just a hop over the border from El Paso. Not roaming on Movistar, which used to be the roaming partner before. SCP says Pegaso Comunicaciones y Sistemas. Maybe they found cheaper regional partners to roam wherever​ they can. I'm just amazed since I expected kbps not Mbps.

I'm in Mexico, parked on LTE band 2 and was able to pull a 7 Mbps download. I thought we were restricted to 3G speeds. Big difference from the last time I was here, when it was all HSPA and HSPA+

I think you're misunderstanding. They're saying VoLTE has no 1x fallback.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7-vOBw3Q8N-amxOcHhOa0pyUEk/view?usp=sharing All this talk about B25 CA made me decide to turn it on on my G6 and I guess it's also live in San Antonio now. I had to turn off B26, I'm on the fringe of the site at around -118 dBm, but was still able to pull 1.5 mbps. So it's performing like a B26 signal that is 10 dBm stronger.

Did you get to send your RCS message?

And no additional permits have been issues. I was hoping they'd start going for at least 5 per quarter, since they're using the cheaper mini-macro option for new B41 deployments.

I usually don't transfer over any of my aps for that same reason. It could very well be that it was installing apps if he chose to transfer them over.

Very subtly. I'm just saying, it's not great being back on a snapdragon. They have a random heating issue followed by thermal throttling. Experienced that far less on the Samsung Exynos. It will be great when CDMA is gone, maybe Samsung will stick to homebrewed chips.

The G6 froze up? Mine always seems to be on fire.

2 or 3 years is quite a long time and the chance that VoLTE will be available on the Sprint network. As far as SvLTE I wouldn't want to talk confidential things on a commuter rail/bus or out in public. As for public WiFi there are VPNs. I made up my mind on this issue when I read on a website about an EMT bashing Sprint for the lack of SvLTE. He mentioned something along the lines of medical records over cell phone to which my thought was that I would very likely file a complaint on any company that allowed their employees to go without a proper laptop for life or death situations. A lot of information can be overlooked on this very small screen. Simply, I avoid the use of my phone in the car as much as I can by keeping it in my pocket. Definitely do have hands free, but it still seems like I'm trying to do too much if I'm talking on the phone while driving.

I knew that sounded a bit off.
