  1. In the past 12 months I've owned an iPhone 5, Nexus 4, Galaxy Note 2, Optimus G, HTC One (White Black and Red), GS4, BB Q10, Moto X, Galaxy Note 3 and now this Nexus 5.

     

    I feel your pain. Haha.

    What a contrast. Waiting for my 3rd smartphone in more than 3 years. HTC Hero, iPhone 4S and due Friday the Nexus 5 and first taste at LTE goodness.

  2. I didn't see anything posted about this... But, has anyone ordered their Nexus 5 through Sprint? If so, have you had any communications saying that it has shipped or shipping? Thank you in advance for any helpful info on this subject...

    Ordered from Sprint. Still waiting on shipping info.

  3. Yeah, same with me. Nothing but the order confirmation.

    Though I received a SMS from Sprint today to verify a discount I receive on my monthly bill. So something is going on. Have my fingers crossed that by Wednesday it'll be processed.

  4. Highly disappointed that I don't have any shipping information or update from Sprint yet for mine.

     

    Anyone have an update on a Sprint order yet?

    Not yet. Still waiting for an update on my order through Sprint.

    Where do you see that there is only one site for Old San Juan left? Network.sprint.com does not shows the two old San Juan sites as completed. And the 3G speeds for those are horrible since I work at OSJ although I have been getting very random LTE sightings but they don't last more than two minutes

     

    S4GRU paid members get access to update maps in the members section. Become a member and find out for yourself. Once a site is 3G Complete, its a matter of time for LTE to be brought up waiting for backhaul improvements. Until then service might be inconsistent, even though a site its 3G Complete or LTE Complete, for that matter.

    I called Sprint and asked to be forwarded to Tech Support and i spoke with one of the representatives over there and asked her about this area in 00927. basically i told her there is a huge gap between San patricio plaza, Plaza las Americas and University of Puerto Rico, including La Piñero and La barbosa ave....

     

    She told me San Juan's rollouts were mostly complete and there were no "plans" of putting new towers in this area anytime soon. She also said Sprint will finish the LTE rollout updates to ALL states and countries by the end of 2013 if there are no delays (we all know what this means).

    Im pretty much dissapointed, i told her since there was a news post on the sprint website announcing the LTE rollout in the San Juan Area i actually LOST LTE in Cupey because 3 antennaes went down and prior when it was in testing phase i had 4g LTE.

     

    Im kinda shocked because that area is HUGE around plaza las americas, plaza del sol and la barbosa and piñero ave... why would they not put any new towers in this area? I pretty much get 4g in Business and Law schools in UPR where youre really close to the corner of the campus and some LTE sneaks in and also in a corner of General Studies and Natural Sciences schools which probably comes from another slightly far tower. The rest of the campus gets no 4g, and just 1x speeds with no calls coming in. My friend has sprint and were always trying to meet up and we just resort to 30 minute late voice mails and text messages.

     

    That gap it's being worked on. Thus the growing pains of NV deployment (dropped calls, roaming, no 3g and just 1x). Its the last area of the entire market. Just a matter of time.

  8. He is on another carrier, i changed cause sprint is the only unlimited... but now i know why.... cause we cant use it :'(

     

    It's a matter of a time before the network it's finished and complete, specially on the SJ Metro area, the last area to be completed. One more month, perhaps two at the most, in my estimation. Hang in there. Your patience will be handsomely rewarded.

  9. So how many towers are left upgrading?

     

    It's hard to tell until the running list is updated. New upgrades in the complete sites post doesn't necessarily correspond to new sites. They include previously upgraded sites now 4g upgraded. From my count they have about 50+ new sites still to work on, mostly in the metro area. Great pace!!

  10. I still see legacy panels. The lower panels attached to the building have RRU's, but are too small to be Sprint NV panels.

    Interesting, I thought they were Sprint's panels. I'll guess the new panels should be placed beside the legacy ones. I pass this site daily on my commute to work, so i'll notice any difference. Thanks.

    It is a new prl from today.

    xxx10 lte device

    xxx92 not lte device

     

    Should I wait for the device to update by itself or do a manual update? Last time I ran #873283## on my iPhone 4s it stopped connecting to the network altogether. Had to restore the device via iTunes. Currently I have PRL 51090.
