I will no longer be able to provide info on Sprint anymore, as I've become a Verizon customer.

 

I thought the HTC One had the antenna and such to receive 800MHz?  

 

From Phonescoop:

 

less detail

LTE (4G)

band 25 / 1900 MHz   PCS+G (USA (Sprint))

 

WCDMA (3G / 4G)

band 1 (I) / 2100 MHz   IMT (Europe, Asia, Africa, Oceania, Brazil, India, Israel)

band 2 (II) / 1900 MHz   PCS (Americas)

 

CDMA (2G / 3G)

800 MHz / band 27 / BC10   ESMR (Americas (Sprint))

850 MHz / band 5 / BC0   Cellular (Americas, Oceania, Brazil, Israel)

1900 MHz / band 2 / BC1   PCS (Americas)

 

GSM (2G)

850 MHz / band 5   Cellular (Americas, Oceania, Brazil, Israel)

900 MHz / band 8   (Europe, Asia, Africa)

1800 MHz / band 3   DCS (Europe, Asia, Africa)

1900 MHz / band 2   PCS (Americas)

 

Verizon version supports LTE band 13 instead of 2

 

What you need is 800 LTE compatibility.

I'm ok with it.

Any 800 MHz updates for SE Michigan?  Really ... nothing at all?

You won't be able to connect to it, with having a single band LTE phone.

Seeing 2nd LTE carriers on Bands 25 and 41 pretty much everywhere I go in SE Mich...NW Detroit suburbs, Howell, Williamston, Fenton, Holly, Brighton, Milford, Highland, Flint and so on. I can't say much on CA since only my wife's phone is current enough and she scowls at me when I ask her to hand it over for a minute.

Pretty the same thing I've been seeing, just gotta start the Band 26 rollouts.

What about the Detroit market? Just curious.

That's even weirder!

Especially since all other tests I did were around 40 down.

I'm not the biggest fan of Sensorly's speed test function either. But when Ookla shows a test of 10 or 20Mbps, and Sensorly shows 100.... you know something is up.

I got a fluke of 236.78 Mbps down with 13.95 up yesterday with Ookla.

Seeing it quite a bit on my wife's LG G4. Speedtest app and the G4 do not play well together though.

Is Speedtest laggy?

Gravy Boat.

School's Coming.

Since this is a discussion thread, I'm just going to say that I wish my phone had a Sprint logo on it. Only so I could help promote the company. Also because I like the logo. What are your thoughts?

 

Very funny. Thanks for digging that up. 

The end of 2015 coverage, I don't see that happening. I have family that have T-Mobile and still lose coverage in the upper part of Michigan.

I will admit, Verizon has some better pricing than AT&T on some data buckets. Like $120 for 20 GBs instead of $140 for the same amount.

Yeah, because I'm rooted. Maybe when 5.1 comes around I'll flash stock over it or something. ZVA doesn't seem worth it.

How do you un-root the phone, because it's a phone I got from craigslist.

Is anyone getting the issues where the Android System Update won't update, and keeps saying error?

Can you PLEASE work on parsing down your posts? The on and on is excessively tiresome. It truly is. Please, by all means, make your point. But clearly and CONCISELY. And then move on about your day.

I agree, too long to read.

I'd like to see Apple snatch up all the 600 Mhrz spectrum in the next auction.

Did he happen to mention what city he lived in?

John should not have made this video until he included Sprint. Also the majority of his testing seems like it was based around if he could get service at home or not.

He also explained each time, that service my vary where you live.

The reason I asked about the Note 4 is because I prefer a removable battery and to be able to carry my music from my SD card.

I would love a 6.4" display, as long as the specs are on point.

However with sufficient tower density, and back haul it's not crazy to think sprint could provide home internet services considering how much spectrum they hold in 2.5, not saying any time soon but someday perhaps. you would of course need caps of some type like most current IPS providers, 150-200 gigs is a common soft cap.  

Your 100-120 soft cap is unrealistic. I'm saying this, as someone, who recently got the Halo: Master Chief Collection DLC, which itself was 65 GBs and Halo 3: ODST, which was 8 GBs, and over my home internet, I watch at least 5-6 hours of online video, sometimes more, a day. In the age of digital, and everything becoming online, soft caps, caps in general, are unrealistic. Unrealistic to the point, where I feel like caps in general, in the future, are potential business killers, and can be harmful to those who would wish to enter the online, digital economy.

The sponsor Section is a good idea, however it might get more hits if the public could vote.

 

I believe Marcelo and sprint are going in the right direction but I don't think they truly know the little perks that would make people very happy if included in the plan or simple add ons.

I agree with you on the public idea.

What would be really nice is some sort of mapping tool through the SprintZone app, detailing exactly which Sprint LTE bands are available as well as an average signal strength within a given area.
