Where in STL? Are those the 2.5 panels?

Hey at least your on B41. I was stuck on useless B25/26 most of the time with .17 up and down. If I had more connection time on B41 i wouldn’t have minded staying on the legacy sprint network.

Go into field test, LTE, serving cell info and it shows your LTE bands.

Well, I woke up today and noticed my data speeds were way faster so I checked field test on my iPhone and I’m on the T-Mobile network now.

What’s the iPhone SE on us deal T-Mobile announced for T-Mobile and sprint postpaid customers? Anyone know the details? Or is that only available for first responders? In the news release it says all T-Mobile and sprint postpaid customers.

Does anyone know what markets T-Mobile is going to be focusing on after NYC?

I thought it was just giving dish a certain, very good price for the first seven years. Not free use.

Are you saying some sprint customers with iPhones are getting offered the update to prioritize the T-Mobile network?

I just got it. Don’t notice any difference so far. My moms old 6s is on 41 and doesn’t seem like it will get the new carrier update yet.

Service for me at home the past week on sprint seems to be a lot slower. Pings times are way higher than normal. Speedtests failing to start.

I understand the need to move people over slowly but forcing them to upgrade their phones when many have just upgraded to a brand new iPhone or other device that is only LTE capable is not the right way in my opinion. If sprint customers can not get access to T-Mobile LTE network in decent amount of time or without buying a phone they don’t want or to spend $1000 that’s not right. Many sprint customers are on a lacking LTE network that is barely usable for a lot of people and now has no upgrades anymore. I can already see customers complaining and their not going to say “hey I’ll buy a $1000 phone to get better service” they are going to go back to the duopoly.

Yeah I get there won’t be a loss of service but for people on LTE devices capable of both networks but stuck in a market or area that just doesn’t perform well on sprint LTE will still have a long wait for better days.

Yeah I heard that before but with all the 5g talk and nothing about integration for LTE customers it doesn’t sound good.

Maybe this is a dumb question but as more I hear it seems they are only working on 5g. Is there never going to be a network integration of the LTE networks? Are sprint customer going to be stuck on sprint LTE until they upgrade to a 5g device? Or will there eventually be a full integration or plan to allow sprint customers to access the full T-Mobile network on the LTE side?

Yeah I posted last weekend that I was able to make VOLTE calls.

That’s what I was thinking as well.

They better keep some b71 for LTE. If they don’t their coverage footprint for LTE will shrink dramatically. That would leave a lot of places without any lowband LTE.

Yes. We currently have 70gb. One question I forgot to ask the agent is what happens when I reach that limit? I just want to make sure there’s no overage charge.

Promise this is my last post about plans... I just wanted to thank you for telling me about this and after 3 hours spend on the phone with sprint they finally added 50gb hotspot for no additional charge. Again thank you.

Well, I have a screenshot of the field test page updated just before placing the call and the call and LTE in the status bar but it says my file is too large to attach.

I’m on an iPhone XS. I can get screenshots if you tell me what you need from field test.

Do you think they will still add it for no extra charge? Is that 50gb per line? What do I need to do to get this added?

I know what bands the iPhone 6 supports. There was band 2 T-Mobile coverage and no sprint coverage and it won’t connect. I know they can because they have in the past.

I just noticed I’m making calls over VOLTE while roaming on T-Mobile. Has anyone else seen this yet? I’m posting this comment while on a phone call and on band71.

Okay, I can definitely confirm speed caps are gone now in my area. Getting great speeds in a rural area where sprint has nothing. The thing is family’s older iPhone 6/6s phones won’t roam onto T-Mobile at all. Not even on band 2 which they have before in the past but now they just stick to uscc 3g. Anyone have any reasons why that would be?
