Try ##72786#.

Forgot to mention I've done that and ##update# and it doesn't help. Only thing I haven't done yet is a full factory reset and for obvious reasons I'm trying to avoid it at all cost.

I started having problems with my Sprint Branded GS10+ after the recent update. I have little to no upload. Download is a fraction of the speeds of my Essential PH-1 on a 1 year free line. I've try toggling VoLTE on and off and it kind works. Jitter on Speed tests are insanely high. Please let me know what to test in the settings. 

 

I had a friend bring my S10 Plus to the UK for me. Obviously I can't activate it here but thought since I got the Sprint version from Samsung it might be unlocked until it turned on. I thought it would lock if I turned it on and it sense the Sprint sim card so I took it out before turning it on. To my surprise it was already locked. I guess I'll have to wait until I get home to really use it. 

My GS10+ is suppose to be delivered today but I wasn't going to be back home until Monday. Just found out I have to stay in London for work until the 16th. The wait is going to kill me. 

Anyone able to figure out where this site is located?

Terminal 1 at JFK. Upload is good if you have a phone that has the latest tech for Sprint.

How did you go about getting the $100 off, did you just try to cancel the pre order after paying or before paying? I already ordered mine off Sprint's site, but I'd order it directly from Samsung if I can get another $100 off since I also did a preoder from Samsung but obviously did not pay for it.

So I reserved the phone before the preorders went live. I then preordered the phone just from the Samsung website but realized I wasn't getting the $50 accessory credit and it wouldn't ship until March 8th. ( both of these were guaranteed when I first reserved). finally figured out I needed to preorder with the link they e-mailed me.  So I went to cancel the order and it asked for a reason (i forget which i used, might have been "delivery would take to long" or something like that) after i hit submit it offed me a % off max of $100. I really wanted the accessory credit so I went through with the cancellation in hopes that I could also get the $100 off if I went to cancel again. I reordered the correct way and went to cancel again and it offered me the $100 off so I accepted. 

 

At this point you will end up getting the phone much later and not getting your headphones. I also used Samsung financing so it might be different if you use your Sprint account to get the device. But I did order a Sprint Model. 

 

edit: I am also hoping this doesn't effect my order. I just checked and I still have the option to cancel the order and don't have any tracking. I know some orders have tracking and can't be canceled anymore. 

I went to cancel my a right after i placed the order because I didn't use the reserve link from my email. Samsung then offered me $100 off to keep my order. I canceled anyway. After placing the order correctly I went to cancel it and got the $100 off offer again but accepted it this time.

This page shows the expected speeds for each type of coverage. Unfortunately is shows the same speeds for 5G as 4G

i know they have been using M-MIMO equipment outside of launch market in some cases. I noticed that Peekskill NY shows 5G coverage. Technically its with in the NYC market but 5G launches have mostly been by city not the entire market. I have a feeling this site shows coverage for all M-MIMO equipment for when they push 5G software. If you look at Dallas and Dc there are also a few blotches of 5G coverage far from the city

I couldn't agree more. Spending over $1300 after tax with no choice in color. 

All the other carriers have the 512 and 1tb Ceramic models in black and white. At least on the Samsung Website. 

Wish i could get the Black Ceramic version in the 512GB variant. Annoying i have to spend $250 more just for the color I want the extra ram and rom seems like over kill.

Interestingly Sprint is using the 5x5 G-block as the PCC and 10x10 B-block as the SCC for carrier aggregation here in Boston (Chestnut Hill). I can't complain though because the download speeds are insane. I never thought I'd see the day I'd get speeds like these on Band 25.

Edit: I should add that this was taken indoors.

I've noticed in NYC and Long island that the PCC and SCC switch off between the B25 carriers. 

Funny enough these are faster than what I've seen from Att's "5G"

So not LI related but I've been testing ATT in Queens and Manhattan. I've been using an essential phone. Either is isn't a lot of B30 or it just has bad range. B41 is way more common on Sprint. Also speeds in general are a fraction of what Sprint reaches in the same areas. Although the Essential Phone doesn't have 4x4 MIMO and only has 3XCA. Pretty sure AT&T uses 4 or 5 xCA now. Also not sure about 256QAM on the Essential

I've been using the SpeedSmart app to test network speeds around NYC and LI. It shows the national average for Sprint and then my average speed. It's crazy how different they are. The network here is solid.

Upgrades are going well on LI. Noticed more Small Cells and B41 upgrades. Also got this in Freeport NY

Our Gen 3 MB is still only getting about 1/2 speed downloads.  Previously, our Gen2 MB was getting 60mbps downloads, and our Gen3 hasnt gone above 30mbps.  

Just got off the phone with MB support and the guy I talked to was a waste.  He was hanging on the fact that I have used over 40gb this period.  I was trying to explain to him that wouldn't matter because it is only on a congested tower and there was no way in hades that our tower was congested.  I gave up and just said forget about it, I'll just live with it for now, but he said he would call back in a few days (new billing cycle) to see if it has improved.

 

Buuuuuuuut the real positive here is that something has happened in the past 2 hours while playing phone tag with this guy... while connected to our Gen 3 MB, I am now getting VoLTE.   . We are NOT a soft-launch market.  Wife is at work and connected to the serving macro tower, and she does not have VoLTE.    Weirrrrrrrrd. 

The deprioritization level is also 50GB now, so that shouldn't matter at all. 

That Clear site near my office that always goes out has been off since November 11th. I'm starting to think they just gave up and are just relying on surround sites to cover the area.

Nice job Sprint!

Now they need to focus on the other boroughs and metropolitan area so they win the actual Root Metrics Market award.

Found first M-MIMO in the Bronx! By Bronx terminal mall. Speeds and coverage indoors went from okish (4-10mb) to this...

http://imgur.com/gallery/6yOw6Dk

And signal was considerbly lower and dirtier on previous Clear equipment.

M-MIMO is the real deal folks!

And thats with only 2xCA. incredible speeds for mid day usage.

What kind of site was this? Clear or ALU? Beware, the updated SCP has some issues with differentiating between them..

Pretty sure its ALU. It has had 3CA CA before Clear site started to get it. SCP has also said Sprint b41 for the past 2 years for this site

Check out this upload in Middle Village Queens. Oh yeah the download isn't half bad either. It peaked at 24Mbps during the test. 

Also Sprint installed another MUMIMO at Water St between Fletcher St and Maiden Ln above Chase Bank building.

Is this replacing clear equipment like the other site?

I'm always sending messenger down there for work I'll have to go myself next time.

One thing I've noticed while roaming on band 4, is that google thinks im offline and not connected. To do a search I have to open a browser instead of using the google app. Play store is the same as well. Everything else seems to work fine though.
