I did notice when it did latch onto the band 12 it disconnected from 5G. I figured that would that was the case after looking at the signal check and service menus.
-
Nothing on my account as of yet on the account add-ons. Just my typical services that I had previously. If I'm not mistaken. I did read that it's per device so maybe it's something that they see on their end that we won't on ours since it's a Sim provision.
-
It seems to be aggregating with band 2 over the 1900 frequency to connect over NR71. T-Mobile at my particular area has never been that good. And it's definitely worse than my normal Sprint LTE signal from my home Tower. I did read over Reddit that if speeds and signal are not to your liking they can actually reverse the provision back to Sprint native. You simply just have to call in. Not 100% if that's true but it's nice that they're able to do that if so.
-
As anticipated in NR71 is much lower because of spectrum they are using. It's cute to have the 5G symbol there but speed wise..... Only 10mhz allotted.
-
4 p.m. I'm sitting on T-Mobile's NR 71
-
Sames looks like it was all sent at the same time to all device's.
-
Err pause.... For real? I question that being a better situation 🤔

Passed by New Rochelle, and Mt Vernon east where I got 5G icon and ran browser to refresh to pull a data connection, and the engineering screen showed nothing .When I opened up ookla speed test app. It showed LTE in the app status below. Not 5G, as it did when I ran similar test further north in Port Chester area. If anything changes will report back. But those are my findings for the area as observed.

https://photos.app.goo.gl/cug2oPEicPB2M7zr9 This is Port Chester just now. Went to the debug screen made sure to activate a data connection. As per previous message, before it showed 5G status bar, but engineering screen didn't populate till data was running so I know what to do now when I pass by my Vernon in a few.
-
Data was active at the time when I was doing it. But we do have a winner up in Port Chester and actual 40 wide channel for 5G? https://photos.app.goo.gl/t2MNfVySr5FtyBnV7 I will definitely double check on my way back to see just in case I did do something wrong on my end.
-
So making my way back up to work this Tuesday and was at mt Vernon east it showed 5G in the icon but went into the engineering screen was only connected to LTE! So some icon signal manipulation at play there. I'll check in other towns as I pass by though.
-
Sweet! Thanks for that! In the BX where there is a 3rd carrier for band 41, it's on 10mhz wide. Not even 15mhz. Checked earlier from the debug screen.
-
Yep that is it! I get back to you when I'm like that way.
-
Connected to a different area while connected on status bar to 5G but NR isn't an option when I go into the engineering screen. Is this screen available on the 5G versions of Sprint Note and S10?
-
So this is in Port Chester. This area in particular doesn't have a 3rd carrier active! Which is interesting. Realized I did not post the engineering screens as I don't know how to do that yet. But once I do I'll add that next time I'm in the area
-
Gotcha. Will do then check back in in the afternoon after my day is done.
-
Signal check doesn't show 5G info as of yet, but on my way back I'll take what info I can while I am at the stop.
-
First day back to work and on the metro to Westchester. Mt Vernon east area has 5G. That surprised me. Should update my info but on the s20 ultra.
-
I actually have noticed that coming from my pixel 2 XL it is kind of crazy how punctual it feels on every key press. It's assertive but not too much, and you can change the level. There is comfort when typing almost window 10 mobile level of smoothness with Gboard enabled.
-
Just got off work heading home for mine. Initially was sent an email it was delayed. Then yesterday got a confirmation it was shipped. Going to be interesting to use Sprint exclusively. I take the Metro North here in NY, and usually park on TMobile signal on my route up to work on Fi. Any suggestions for a glass screen protector for this device. First ultrasonic display finger print sensor I've used personally.
-
Coming back from Google Fi. Place the order after I saw that I wouldn't have to put a trade in. But it seems mine is delayed! This will be my first Samsung device since the Galaxy S 4g hspa+ on T-Mobile! It's been a while since I've done Samsung.

So after about what it's been a week. Not all towers in the area have three carriers but definitely a lot more mini macros and small cells are online. And as I was coming up to West Chester today in Port Chester, rye area they have three carriers online for band 41 as well. Got my first speed test above 200 ever up this way. Seems like they are definitely trending towards capacity. With Google fi, I switch over to Sprint network because T-Mobile is tragically slow.
-
In addendum noticing more mini macros in the area are online. My main tower after other in the vicinity also received an update to 10*10 band 25 now as well. Gonna take a walk in hood to check it out .
-
Kingsbridge, Riverdale plaza mall area. To add it's on multiple towers in the area not just mine. Saw it in the menu for signal check.
-
So randomly in room, decided to run a speed test and got over 60 down at night on Friday thought it weird, ran speed test window open got 80 down, pretty nice as well. Went to check signal check and see a new carrier on the same PCI, 41148. 3 carrier in the bx in the west 200s... That's new! A week back I was actually able to access voice over LTE on my pixel 2XL but I lost that ability sometime over the past weekend. Using Googlefi at the moment. Not running directly over through Sprint.
