    But his coverage sucks in urban areas.

    Hopefully soon for San Diego. A lot of areas and indoors are often only 3G or 1x. Still waiting for those small cells and micro sites to show up while we wait for 800 MHz.
  3. RichardXy
    I'm so sick of getting 3G in San Diego. I hope we get hundreds of these going up soon here.

    I cant wait to see the San Diego market get above the 90% complete level. The estimated completion must be in 2017 at this rate,

    Well any market that is not 100% complete by now probably will not benefit from densification for years to come. The best bet to fill in the gaps is a lot of low end spectrum. The lower the better. Either these markets have suffered from poor planning by Sprint or because of Nimby-ism and over-regulation but either way densification will only prolong the suffering compared to 600 MHz spectrum. Densification will run into every roadblock that network vision ran into. Upgrading existing sites with 600 MHz will improve coverage over a wide area and provide indoor data coverage whereas densification will only lead to more delays for permits etc.

    Sprint needs every last bit of 600 MHz spectrum it can buy along the IBEZ. We have already had a lost decade with Sprint's slow roll out along the borders especially in San Diego. Have we even hit 90% completion? Not participating in the 600 MHz auction may be the beginning of the end for Sprint. We need to blow up Marcelo's twitter and get him to change his mind immediately.

    I'm on the unlimited for life plan. Unlimited data is the only advantage that Sprint has over Verizon.

    I can't wait for this to Start. San Diego has been one of the fastest growing areas in the country and Sprint just hasn't kept up. We need so many new towers to fill in the gaps. Even Verizon with their 700 Mhz spectrum has needed to add several new sites where I live. I hope Sprint doesn't put San Diego on the back burner again.

    They finally updated the coverage maps to show that there really are gaps in LTE coverage in Oceanside. Use the sprint zone app to report a coverage problem every time you find one. I hope someone at Sprint actually is working on the problem here.
  12. RichardXy
    I hope a good deal of these new sites will be in markets that don't have Clearwire sites. I know a lot of markets have already benefitted from the added density.

    At what point does the government step in and take back that spectrum? Seems like he's spectrum squatting.

    Typical service in Oceanside, CA in areas that are still waiting for upgrades after so many years.

    It varies a lot. I have the iPhone 6 and I am also in the San Diego Market. I am in Oceanside about 1 block from a 4g Accepted tower. FCC App 11.02 Mbps down and 1.48 Mbps up - 85 ms latency with server in L.A. Sensorly 12.53 Mbps down and 1.55 Mbps up - 228 ms latency Speedtest 15.22 Mbps down and 1.27 mbps up - 75 ms latency with server in S.D. Rootmetrics 11 Mbps down and .9 Mbps up I think this is a San Diego issue. With Qualcomm here and Broadcomm in Irvine you would think we would have the best networks in the world.

    Saying you have Sprint in San Diego is like saying you are on welfare or kick dogs.
  17. RichardXy
    Does Sprint have to pay a break-up fee and if so how much is it?
  18. RichardXy
    I hope the new CEO works to get every market at least 95% complete so that everyone can share in the NV 1.0 upgrades. Also, I was really worried that Sprint was going to stop the network rollout if they were allowed to merge with T-mobile because of comments made by Alcatel-Lucent. http://in.reuters.com/article/2014/07/31/alcatel-lucent-results-idINL6N0Q61N620140731

    Once rebanding is complete is there any reason why the ibez should remain so large? Wouldn't a 10 or 15 mile ibez suffice?
  20. RichardXy
    It's definitely not going to be about network completion. Everyone on this site knows this. The best they will be able to say is that they have started on every site or at least completed permitting. The graphic for the event looks like its on a speaker so I'm guessing it's some kind of new bundled service like the spotify phone.
  21. RichardXy
    Didn't sprint use tablets to skew their subscriber growth numbers? Maybe this is just an effort to show the numbers minus tablets? Either way, Sprint really does need to start adding subscribers or eventually they will be overtaken.
  22. RichardXy
    well I also have an iPad mini LTE and it's the same story. This is an Alcatel Lucent market so 4g comes after 3G and only 1/3 of the sites have been upgraded around here.
  23. RichardXy
    I phone 4s. I can get I tunes radio, pandora, etc fine at my work in Carlsbad, CA but streaming is nearly impossible in Oceanside, CA and definitely not while mobile.
  24. RichardXy
    Hopefully by the end of summer all of Sprints customers will be able to stream music. I sure can't and I'm in a launched market.
  25. RichardXy
    This is not needed at this time. They should wait a decade.
