  1. They briefly turned on the 4G down here near the Defense Supply Center last night. I was mad they turned it off but I was in the gym and 4G showed up for a few minutes then turned off.
  2. Unfortunately 4g is not measured with bars. The bars is for 3g and 1x. 4g is separate. You can measure signal strength in the advance phone properties. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
  3. I mapped some awhile back. I don't work that area anymore so it would be hard to map it for me now. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
  4. If you travel up past Virginia Center Commons you will start picking up LTE. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
  5. You can I tried it out last night. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
  6. No problem, I live in the East End, work in the West End and travel all over town and out. 3G is good in places and crappy in others, missed calls happen pending which tower your on. 3G load times are sometimes unbareable. NV rollout is fixing a lot of those issues, I have used the new NV towers in Williamsburg down to Norfolk and once in Harrisonburg all better and acceptable. Be patient they expect by end of summer for all of Richmond to be done from what I heard. It will be even better when iDEN shuts down and they starting using that spectrum, good building penetration and less dropped calls.
  7. This means they are starting the roll out in Richmond. Expect to start seeing 4g lite up on your phone. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
  8. I got the same word from someone who use to work with Sprint that we should have LTE by end of summer. Has anyone seen anything, I've noticed the backhauls because of faster speeds. I haven't seen any tower work yet though. The only time I saw something was in my last post but he was at the top running cables. I can't confirm anything else because I was in a rush to work. I haven't hit any active 4G towers either.
  9. I should have but I was running late for work Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
  10. I could be wrong but I saw a guy working on a tower and it looked like he was installing the Ericsson boxes at the transmitters up top. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
  11. That's good to hear since no one had mentioned anything about Richmond. I thought we were the forgotten city. Lol, thanks for the update though, I will be happy when I start seeing work on the towers Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
  12. Over the past year I have seen alot of 3G speed increases and better signals in Richmond. From 600kbps to 1500-2000kbps in many places. I wonder how much longer before LTE is launched here. I was jealous when I drove to Newport News this weekend and saw 4G on my Note II starting in Williamsburg.
