My unlocked Essential Phone did a profile/SIM card update when I restarted just now, and I'm not sure if it did before, but it has the toggle for enhanced 4G LTE mode (VoLTE). I'm not in a soft-launch market so I'm unable to confirm whether or not it's enabled. Theoretically the IMS app on the SIM card is the only thing needed if the phone's firmware supports VoLTE. 

that been there since the essential phone came out. i think that setting is active on most stock android experience phones

With 4x4MIMO and 256Qam it won't be too hard to max out the 20mhz carrier that the MB broadcasts since its only 2x2MIMO and 64QAM

thats a great picture of him

Is there any sort of roaming agrement between USCC and Sprint? Will USCC customers from areas other then the several midwestern markets sold be able to roam on sprints network in the markets sold? Not really sure if that makes complete sense.

Upstate NY East isn't even listed as a 3rd round maket.

Upstate NY central market isn't even listed as a second round market let alone 3rd round market.

Atleast now I don't have to check ever second to see if someone upload a 4g speed test

I can't seem to find the page with "live LTE coverage map from Sprint sites in the Atlanta/Athens, Georgia area". Only the Waco, Texas map is in the sponsors forum. Could someone provide a link?

Since theres no support for LTE 800 and only LTE 1900 does that mean when sprint starts using LTE 800 it won't have 4G? Or is both LTE 800 and 1900 going to be used simultaneously. Would all site have both or only certain?

When you say "will begin deployment as soon as May." does that mean they will start the upgrades needed for NV or there already live and will be switched on for use?
