    sorry missed that second tab first time looking. So that will open up the 800 SMR freq once IDEN is shut down and it is turned on for the 1x?

    Anyone on the iPhone5 51097 update? Anyone know what the change from 96 is. I'm still on 51096 just wondering what changed before I update

    i know tmo is def on it, huge sign on one of the dog houses has all the info in case of emergency for tmo, but no other identifiers for any other carriers,only other info is that its owned by crown castle. side note, i did a search on antennasearch.com and it doesnt even show a tower for that address. Closest Sprint tower from that search about a mile away owned by crown castle as well

    not sure if these are any better from this angle, best i could get today from my phone.
  5. bmattox79
    so that is all NV hardware and not legacy? it def cannot be broadcasting yet, unless the backhaul isnt completed. Is there anyway i can give someone here the address or ID of the tower to find out the NV status, just curious

    there is def clearwire on that tower,,when i had my old htc evo shift my wimax signal was pinned by this tower. is the clearwire one the very bottom??
  7. bmattox79
    focusing on the top rack??
  8. bmattox79
    are you sure, cause if so they must not be broadcasting yet. I was in the library 50 yards from the tower and kept bounceing from 3G to o could not load a webpage or send a text until i went outside. I know PCS band has band building penetration but cant be that bad right??
  9. bmattox79
    i will go back today that was a quick shot. I can get pretty close since our Fire Dept Antennas are on that tower

    and just a little more NV love!!!!
  11. bmattox79
    i know there are topics on what to look for, and i think the RRU's i see are att&t, but there are so many segments on this tower is sprint on there??? Or maybe some about to be shutdown nextel? Or who is on there??
  12. bmattox79
    I have to say I was a huge Nextel user and love the quickness of the network. Worked great for the volunteer fire dept for non emergencies and between family members. That said I will have my i870 charged and on waiting for the last signal from the iden network. Will still use these phones for the great off network they have.

    I love network vision these are 2 spots that used to have less than .50 Mbps now they are great and these are a decent peak times. I don't even need LTE if these speeds stay consistent (don't get me wrong cant wait for LTE, just to try it).
  14. bmattox79
    thats awesome,,,finally getting closer to my area!!!!! yahoooooo!!!
  15. bmattox79
    finally someone who actually does the work we are all waiting for...where are they destined for..all NV work???
  16. bmattox79
    Quote from comments"Instead, they are showing you a partial deployment which they are doing because true Network Vision was found to be too costly and too disruptive (according to Sprint, customers would experience outages for 3 - 14 days)" Does this guy have any clue what he is talking about??

    im in and around middlesex and somerset counties. Was in bridgewater on 202 the other day inside a store where i usually cant even get a webpage to load and when i run a speedtest inside its around .07mbps down. Internet is useless, but the other day i was there and hit my email and it opened instantly. I ran three speedtests and they were 1.05/.80,,1.88/.76,,1.67/.79. Amazing for inside that store or in that area at all.

    this is what i thought i read and why i was asking. in the same post i thought i remembered reading that there was some issue with the 800 and that Sprint changed the iphone PRL to prioritize 1900.
  19. bmattox79
    yes thats what i meant..LOL
  20. bmattox79
    kinda on topic..will the iphone5 PRL remain as it is after IDEN is shut down and 800smr is active every where or will they change it so the iphone 5 will if not prioritize 800 have it be equal so that if u have a good 800 signal the iphone wont still continue to search for a 1900. I have no problem nor do i care if my phone uses 1900 or 800 if both signals are strong, Sprint has always had great call quality, but i dont want my phone to lose 1900 grab 800 but burn my battery constantly searching to go back to 800. Thoughts???
  21. bmattox79
    Right on brotha!
  22. bmattox79
    does this really have to turn into an IOS vs Android?? I ve had both and just recently switched to Iphone5, at this point in the game is there really a whole lot different or new that is gonna come out and shock us. Both platforms are becoming more similar by the update IMO. On an opinion note, one little thing that bugs me.. the dots for signal strength,,,weird gonna take some getting used to LOL
  23. bmattox79
    i havent seen any LTE, but i have noticed faster 3G speeds on certain towers, and not sure if its my imagination or not but i seem to have a much steadier signal everywhere. on another note, now that i look i have noticed that where i have been getting 4-5 bars it will drop to 1-2 bars like the tower im usually on was taken off line or something, not sure if its the beginning of NV in my area, HOPE SO!
  24. bmattox79
    watching the NV acceptance forums the coverage should be much better by mid august, everytime they are updated orlando market in accepting 10-15 or more site, some LTE, 3G. Either way almost two and a hlaf months should get a lot of work completed, barring back to back to back etc Hurricanes.
  25. bmattox79
    Has anyone been to Disney in the very recent past. Just wondering if the LTE makes it all the way through all the parks yet. Im going in august an hoping that by then they have made much more progress.
