  1. standard from sprint. They announced LTE for Winona in January of 2013, and said it would be ready in a few months. Fast forward two and a half years, and they again said "upgrades will start in the next few months". Bullshit.
  2. I enjoy anticipating new things as well, but there's a time when anticipation turns to annoyance.
  3. Ugh, if it weren't for my crazy cheap plan, I would have left Sprint a LONG time ago. Here's the reply today regarding the updates in the Winona area: "In regards to the upgrades, they are scheduled to begin within the next 6 months"
  4. Still waiting in Winona. I'm less than half a mile from the nearest tower, and can almost manage 0.1Mbps down on 3G. 0.1!
  5. It's pretty spotty in Winona from what I've found. If you're near the Goodview water tower it's fine, but anywhere east of there sucks. I don't receive calls in my house, I just get the voicemail notification so I know to go outside and call them back.
  6. tap the 3 dots in the upper left of the camera, then tap the first option (above the ISO settings, it probably says "Auto"), and that's how you change the camera modes now. Panorama is the one below HDR, looks like a rectangle with the left 1/3 filled in.
  7. Here's a response from Sprint today: The towers that are close to that area are scheduled for 4G LTE upgrades between the fall and winter which will improve your data connection and speeds. The tower that covers the 4th St and High Forest St area in Winona is scheduled for voice updates by the end of fall and hopefully sooner. These are just estimates and lots of things out of our control can delay these estimates. If I didn't have such a cheap bill I would have switched a LONG time ago. They announced 4G was coming for Winona in January of 2013, then they send out that message in April saying the network upgrades were complete. W.T.F.
  8. looks like my HTC One can do it. Signal was 1000x better. I'll have to remember to do that while at home since I don't use 3G there anyway.
  9. didn't know I could do that. I'll have to give it a try when I get home this afternoon. Thanks!
  10. It is strange. Pages load quick at times, but speed tests are extremely slow. My house on the east end has virtually no service. I usually can't even call out from outside.
  11. anyone have any info on Winona's updates for LTE? I know Sprint has said the upgrade is complete, but there's no sign of LTE, and even 3G speeds have dropped off a cliff in the last few months, not to mention voice connection. It was even nice of them to send everyone a message saying "your all new network is here, with stronger voice and faster data". Seems a little premature to send out a message saying it's complete, when it clearly isn't lol.
