though

Seems to be an "Oreo" issue or "non-Sprint branded phone" issue (Nexus 5, 5x, 6, 6P, Pixel 1, 2, 3).

Be interesting if anyone with any of these phones can successfully 'LTE Data Roam' on USCC now...

Just found this link.

See my post from 2 months ago not being able to roam in US Cellular territory with either of my Pixel 2 XL's. This area has been rock solid previously.

My MB hasn't been working for weeks now. It's stuck at 3/4 line saying 'configuring LTE services'. Power cycled it and no change.
Should I contact MB support?

I would try and take it to a different location and see if it connects there. Friend's house, parents, work, etc. Could be a tower issue.

AirUnity 544 Magic Box

No longer responds to my finger. The display is on and displays the time but if I tap the screen it goes to the 3 boxes and from that point it totally ignores any finger taps. Up to this point it was working albeit poorly due to being in a poor signal area.

I unplugged/reboooted twice but to no avail.

Is there anything else I can try to revive the screen touchability?

Else I'll call MB support.

Thanks,

J

Prob call support and request a replacement.

Yes it does.

Good deal. Wish it also supported UL CA ?

That is awesome, however not the norm.

Which phone or phones will pull those upload speeds?

5 minutes ago, nexgencpu said:

Someone just posted a screen shot of 40mbs upload on Sprint through 15x15 B25. Ive personally seen as high as 21mbs on B41 here with CA. So nothing particularly special.

When your norm is 4-6 Mbps peak, 16+ is welcomed!

Does the Pixel 3 at least support HPUE?

Receiving T-mobile in a weak Sprint part of Milwaukee. The TM speeds are pretty decent for this being one of their worst spectrum markets.

Note that one of the screen shots is roaming on Verizon CDMA at the same time!?

That UPLOAD! YEEEEEHAAAAAA!

Can someone confirm the specific Sprint sim card required for these phones? Part number would be great!

50/5 on T-Mobile and 3/0 on Sprint lol. I'm using the S9+.

50/5 sounds a little better

Philly not too sure on the specifics. Hoping Sprint enables B71 on this phone in the future.

which phone?

what are ul/dl speeds with tmob compared to sprint in the same spot?

Yeah, that’s what he did. 

may not work forever (or for long, for that matter). not sure...

I didn’t think so. My neighbor who moved here from a non Shentel area has one and claims it still connects and works. I’ve never been to his house to confirm though. 

If he connects it up in a working area then moves it, it *might* work.

i never opt'd out

Get on the 'normal' channel and you should be able to get it on day 1 from here on out...

Hmm, I got the Sept security update normally

You never opted in for the beta Pie releases?

Just now, jefbal99 said:

oh i have multiple times, just haven't gotten to me in the availability yet.

That's super odd.

I got the carrier services update a few days ago, but still living on the Sept Security patch.  Haven't gotten the Oct patch yet

Go to settings, system, advanced, system update, check for update

That's not terrible but it's low speed but usable

175 ms pings
1200+ ms jitter
.01 Mbps upload
timeout errors

that's not "terrible"? good luck with your VOLTE phone calls.

non-network people also don't realize that when you're upload is taxed out, there goes the download speeds and pings...

What about overall consistency with the speeds do they work

Just ran some speed tests for you to dissect. A few screenshots of ping/jitter too, as well as timeouts.

Speeds and overall reliability seemed to take a step backwards with the latest firmware push for me. If anything, ping times *might* have improved when the unit actually works.

The speed test is from at least 11 hours before the screenshot notice the time difference between the system clock and the app clock.

My mistake. Thanks for the correction.

2 minutes ago, Mr.Nuke said:

The speedtest.net server is a comcast server. The external IP in the screenshot is a Sprint IP address.

I noticed the Sprint IP too, but went by the Wifi indicator at the top. When I'm not on LTE and try to do a speedtest.net test, it connects to a Sprint server.

Best upload I've gotten on Sprint ever.

Screenshot shows Wifi/Comcast?

So remember some months ago I had T-Mobile roaming while on Sprint 1X, and then it vanished?  I was sitting in the hospital in Farmville earlier today on 1X when suddenly, my LG G6 popped up that it had received a profile update.  When it finished reconnecting, I was still on Sprint 1X, but on US Cellular LTE roaming.  And, indeed, I've continued to have US Cellular roaming available to me in areas where Sprint LTE is unavailable throughout the day.

No sign of T-Mobile roaming though.  I would imagine they want to prioritize US Cellular roaming over T-Mobile anyway, and US Cellular is a lot better than T-Mobile around here.

My wife (Galaxy S7) and my mother (Moto E4 Plus) both do not seem to have gotten such an update yet.  I hope it is coming.

new PRL?
