I did force LTE for most the game it didn't seem to change anything when I turned it back to normal.

Yeah your right normally I can't even connect to 1x data so having that wasn't bad at all I guess I just had my hopes up for crazy speeds like people have posted from previous games.

What baseband are you running on your phone? Also the N5 is suppose to be the best RF performer out of Sprint devices.

 

I don't know now I'm not so sure if it was or not I guess I need to check the engineering screen more often. The reason I say that is scp was saying I was on band 41 now but when I went into engineering it said band 25. Either way I'm kinda disappointed unless band 41 coverage or speeds will improve at the stadium.

Did you check your engineering screen to verify you are on B41?

-112 on B41 isn't as bad as the same level on 25/26. That said, you should have gotten way better throughput on b41 at that level. Are you certain you had band 41 and weren't getting 25/26 from another site?

Two weeks ago I got 40+ down on band41 at Busch. But i was in the upper decks. One of those times being in the uppers was an advantage. Looked like no one else was on band41. I had to force lte cause otherwise it wouldn't connect to band41. Maybe they fixed the efcab issue so now everyone (with a triband device) is on band41.

Was at Busch Stadium tonight for the game and had band 41 but wasn't to great. Had -112 dBm and pulled around 3.8 down with a ping over 100. Very weak signal but my nexus 5 connected with no problems.

Put my phone in LTE only mode at home today and briefly got band 26. Not really better speed or dBm. But the upload did seem consistantly better normally matched the DL. Best test was around 8 down 8 up.

I live in st Charles county. I pay for 30 and am also now getting 70-100 down! Awesome!

Got Band 41 at hwy k and hwy n today!

What exactly makes a site "turbo"? More spectrum available or what? Also I got my first experience of band 26, and 41 today.

Got the update yesterday and charged my phone right after. Seems like it helped a little bit. What I notice the most is standby is much better.

Incorrect. Sprint does not throttle data except for the 5% policy that activated on the 1st. 

 

Also, what makes you think they are going to refund you for your contracted lines? 

TK TECH News posted a video on his youtube channel about a possible tmobile- sprint merger, but in the video he claims sprint took the throttleing terms off there site. Not sure if its true or not. 

Actually I forgot about this, but you don't have to be unlocked to sideload an OTA. If you want I can walk you through it in a PM.

Will I lose data? It would be cool if you showed me how. But I just did a clean install of windows on my laptop so I'm waiting for 163 updates to download.

Assuming you are unlocked, you can flash the OTA package in recovery. You're not really at any risk of damage to the phone.

Im actually not unlocked thats why I wanted to wait for the OTA so i don't loose any data.

Or you can use LTE only with 2.13. Last time I was downtown .15 connected to 41 almost instantly.

Like Evan said. It is live but with eCSFB issues. If you are running .15 you might get lucky and connect since data is fragile in that area.

Band 41 is live in that area. Last time I was there eCSFB wasn't enabled.

Yeah I'm hoping I get the OTA before then. Im just to freaked out to flash it myself. All i hope for this time is usable data.

Has anyone been to Busch Stadium lately? If so whats data like on a tri-band device? Just curious because ill be there next tuesday and last time I was there i wasn't even able to connect to a data connection.

Could you grab a shot of the 1x engineering screen with the PN showing? That's more helpful for identifying the tower.

Just started getting 1x 800 at my house today. Near hwy n and sommers rd.
