Well now I am back in the office, and the phone indicates 4 bars, but when I tested calling my phone it did not ring.  This is all very frustrating.  Maybe because I need to switch the phone back to global from CDMA/LTE?  If im going to have to manually switch every day this is going to be a problem.

I will say that I am very pleased that my phone is now working on the 45th floor of my building.  This was not the case with the galaxy s2 device.

I am going to keep sprint.  I'm sure it's just some settings I need to get tweaked, thanks!!

I set up a google voice account.  

I have the LG G3. Is wifi calling an option?  I know it is on outbound calls, but my concern is inbound calls.  Sometimes if I am not connected to the airrave people will tell me they call me, but my phone never rang, and never shows up in my call logs.

Im just trying to find out why sprint has 1 bar in the center of the city. It was no disrespect. I found out i have to manually switch my phone to cdma insteas of tri band and it connects to the airave device. I just have to manually switch my phone back to global when i leave the house.

Reporting back now that I've had the phone a few days.honestly I think I'm going to have to leave sprint. Still get 1 bar at home. My gf called me standing next to me and my phone didn't even ring. Per sprint my cell tower is on paulus ave which already had network vision. The other is akard which wont be done till july 2015! My address is ross and lower greenville. Very bumed as i love the phone but when my phone didn't even ring that was the last straw. Also im only getting 2 mbps on the lte network.

So they charge you because their service is sub par?  Got to love coporate america 

just kidding!

Ill get the tri band device, wish me luck!  They are also offering a free tablet so its worth it!! and 150$ gift card with the G3

Get a triband device and try it for 14-30 days. If it's not good within the time frame you are free to leave. Also a FYI -- The galaxy s2 historically had a below average radio. Any device today, especially tribands, are heads and shoulders above the phones of yesteryear(s) in terms of reception. 

I asked them about this at the Sprint corporate store and they said it would be a restocking fee of 50$.  

I've heard there are major issues in Dallas, but even the highest levels of sprint won't tell me what is wrong with the towers.  It has been over 2 years and they keep pushing back the dates on the towers.  I am being service by the Sprint tower on Mockingbird Avenue.

My current location is near Downtown Dallas.  Currently I have 1 to 0 bars.  Nobody has been able to explain to me WHY, but that everytime I call they are "working on the towers".  Finally I was able to get a boosting device for my home to make calls, but use WIFI for data.  

My question is if I stay with Sprint, and get a new tri band device, is there a chance this whole situation will be fixed?

I have a Galaxy S2 so I understand why my data service is poor, but why is voice so bad in East dallas (about 2 miles from downtown?)

Also, my Galaxy s2 does not work from my skyrapper at work.  I have never made a phone call inside my office tower.  

Will a triband device fix this as well (does tri band go through buildings better?)

The phone I am consider to extend my contract with sprint is the lg g3.  thanks!!
