I don't live in Colombia but if you're wondering what coverage should be like with a full B26 rollout, imagine LTE pretty much every where 3G was. When optimized, B26 should run -114 to -118 when 3G loses service.

Cactus cell

Stop complaining. That's a double in capacity and a hell of a lot better than not having it.
-
Yea...in my findings, field test for 3G/1x only works once per boot so after you've opened it once and it populates, you have to reboot your phone if you want to open it up again. 1x band class usually never loads, EVDO works some of the time. Honestly if you can get SID to load it's petty much always correct so that's your best bet.
-
As I said, it's very unreliable
-
iPhone 6S field test is extremely unreliable. My phone ALWAYS displays Band 0 in 1x despite the correct band being displayed in the 1xEV-DO section. This does not appear to be a problem that Apple will address. Best thing to do is go off of the SID.

How's LTE on 64 between Richmond and Charlottesville?
-
Hi guys, wondering if we could start a thread with the contact information for Sprint execs and the regional heads. Please post what you know!

Where is that?
-
I feel like it's probably you forgetting to lock your phone...or the inside of your pocket looks a hell of a lot like your finger...????
-
Where did you hear that
-
Spring is trying to get away from that reputation and they aren't stupid. They aren't going to make that mistake anymore.
-
They should probably hire some better people then because it's been like this for the last 10 years [emoji23]

All we really need in Seattle is an extra 5-6 dbm on LTE which I'm sure B26 will be able to provide. Also, funny you say that about Verizon because I've found Verizons coverage in Seattle to be TERRIBLE. No service at my house, I am routinely unable to establish a data session while out and about, lots of 1x - their site spacing could be a lot better. I am baffled by their root metrics score - I guess I just happen to only spend my time in their dead spots lol
-
Well I used to have a dual band device (B25 and B26) and it was terrible. Extremely spotty. Lucky for us, clear had a super dense network and since nearly all of their towers have received B41, it is a lot better. For example at my house, I would see 1x/3G at dbms of -105ish with my iPhone 5S but now I get -108ish B41 from a nearby clear conversion. There are drops to 3G but they are few and rare because sites have been quite well optimized here. There are a lot of fringe areas where I'm at -114ish LTE where it would be nice to have B26 to fall back on though.
-
They filed for a bunch of B26 installations which were approved by the FCC but nothing live yet (at least that anyone has seen)
-
Hard to tell. With all of the clear conversions, B41 is pretty much everywhere - even more so than B25. If I see B25 at all, it's usually in the -114 to -118 range so I can never really get a good speed test (it's usually 8-15 Mbps down or so in the -114 to -118 range). B26 cannot come soon enough for us though...
-
I know. I was the one that reported 10x10 when it was first launched in Seattle. We've had it for quite a while now.
-
They probably don't want to publicize their protection sites with pretty much nonexistent backhaul because it may attract customers. With a few people on these improperly provisioned sites, their barely existent network will get overloaded. My guess is that once they have a few more sites online, they'll start adding to the coverage map.
-
They probably will. Soon™.
-
I'm in Tacoma right now lol. Haven't seen anything but haven't really been looking so I'll keep an eye out as well.
-
About time
-
OMG yes let us know
-
How is the RF compared to the iPhone 6S. It looks like a good buy but I want to verify that first...
