    It's M-MIMO btw. MUMIMO means something completely different (multi-user MIMO).
  2. lilotimz
    Already has. I'm doing a October summary blog post soon but generally speaking refer to this. You'll hear first from S4GRU when more news is available.

    Found this one a while back but finally got a picture of it. By CRC.

    VoLTE being live in the market and randomly finding small cells near me is always nice.

    Those are WIFI hotspot option. It's not the WiFi backhaul bridge option that you need a GEN 3 for.

    The configuration I believe they're undertaking is LTE RAN sharing using MOCN. The short summary of that would be that the LTE RAN hardware on roaming partners will broadcast a lower priority PLM-NID which Sprint devices will lock onto when a set of parameters are met. Think back to like the Clearwire B41 network in terms of different PLM-NID. Depending on how they configure it, the LTE hardware doesn't matter in this case. What matters is how the packets are routed and with LTE RAN sharing configurations, instead of the packets going through the t-mobile network then through to Sprint, it goes directly to Sprint from the cell site.

    Are those 2 PCS radio / Antennas? If so then it's like 10+10+5 B25 is live. Guessing CDMA + B25 on one radio set and the 2x10 MHz on the other set. This way 4x4 MIMO can be used on all B25 carriers without running into port or radio bandwidth limitations. Also yes. 10 MHz A (1935-145) + 10 MHz E+F (1885-1895).

    >> https://s4gru.com/forums/topic/7833-the-s4gru-byod-sim-compatibility-chart/ << Very simple. Just ensure the UICC they give you matches the one on the list.

    BYOD meaning you purchased the device not directly from Sprint or a device that is not sold by Sprint but compatible with them such as Pixels and Moto devices. These are the compatible sim cards. The 516TQ is not . Edit: typod. 516 TQ is compatible.

    Si. CSIM. ISIM. ISIM whatever V now. It's the one used for this generations devices which has CDMA+LTE authentication on the Sim. Needed for future hot swapping.

    Antenna pictures are not that useful for identifying carriers for small cells since they're all pretty much very similar omnis. Need pics of the actual equipment if there is any.
  15. lilotimz
    Yep. I've confirmed about 90 of them just driving around not even specifically looking for them. Also found a few inactive / active Sprint small cells doing the same specifically around downtown and midtown.

    S8 was selected as it was the test device with the largest concentration of users. S9 is newer and was not as widely adopted so it was on the backburner.
  17. lilotimz
    What is the typical GCI heading for B41 in that region? 41/42/43 is usually Nokia GCI ending for #3 carrier.
  18. lilotimz
    In the app you want to tap on the three dots then Help.. and it'll detail the nomenclature. I'll suggest that Mike have it made clearer on how to find the info since it's been something has has constantly been brought up by new people to SCP. TLDR: B41 ^# = GCI identified B41 carriers #1,2,3 & so on. Likewise with B25^# B41 SC = airspan small cell / B41 MM = nokia mini macros
  19. lilotimz
    S8/8+ SE's (unlocked from Samsung) are capable.
  20. lilotimz
    So SCP screenshot?
  21. lilotimz
    That's voice call continuity. It has been a thing for a while.
  22. lilotimz
    So 20+20+10? That's a new config that hasn't been seen before. In many regions they have BRS high which is 2618-2673.5 which is basically 55 MHz wide. 2673.5-2690 is EBS which often times is not leased by Sprint so they use EBS where possible. I wonder if they could do 20+20+15... maybe..
  23. lilotimz
    Unlikely. SCP tries to take an educated guess on small cells. B41 SC only shows when it uses traditional GCI endings but also uses the market GCI prefix in use for B25/26 since that's how Airspan units are set as. Nokia stuff ends as in 3x / 4x which makes it easier to identify it as a Nokia cell (but can't differentiate type of small cell).

    They will not. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  25. lilotimz
    Yep. Typically if they're deploying 8t8r on Clear conversions it's a triband setup with 16 port antennas for 2x4 800, 4x4 1.9, and 2.5. They swapped to massive mimo entitlements and permits earlier this spring. Which entails new racks to be built for 6 antennas. Lot more money and work which are in short supply for Clear conversions.
