Do we know when they will turn them on? Is there an imminent formal launch? There are many areas in the City of Chicago where you get 4G one day and 3G on another. Not complaining given the amount of work that has been done, just would like to know. Thanks,
-
I hear you. I have been pulling 3 down by the antenna on Milwaukee and California and some parts in East Lakeview. I thought LTE was supposed to be faster.
-
I just heard that Sprint will start updating the S3 to JellyBean beginning tomorrow... Roll out should complete within a few weeks. : )
-
They are probably blocking it, since I have cycled the device and been able to connect to 4G in other parts of the Chicago metro area.
-
What about if a site has been shown as complete on the site maps for a few weeks, but it has yet to put out a 4G signal. How long after a site is shown as complete is it lit?
-
That is a good point. Here's to hoping it continues as it has.
-
Does that mean that an announcement is imminent?
-
Are we still thinking that the official Chicago market launch will take place this month?

I have a question regarding the time on the S3. I know that we have had problems with the phones reflecting Eastern Standard Time when picking up LTE signals. This this still be the case when I am connected on WIFI? For the past few weeks, I have at times seen that my phone shows Eastern Time when I am at home on my WIFI. I checked my router just in case, but it was set properly with Central Time. It didn't bother me that much, but this morning it came to head when my alarm went off an hour early... I got up took a shower and was almost done getting ready for work when I noticed I was up at 5 am. vs. 6 am. So, needless to say I turned off automatic time on my phone. After all that, my question is would the LTE towers still have been impacting my time even though I was on my home WIFI? Just wondering.
-
Ditto!!
-
What is weird about my phone is that there have been a number of times that my clock has changed to Eastern Time and the connection is still 3G. Why would that be?
-
Why would that be that the signal doesn't reach ground level? I also noticed that in my building in the west loop. I am on the 5th floor and get intermitent 4G signal, but then I get outside and nothing. Thoughts?
-
Thank you for responding.
-
Also, is there anything else that needs to be done to be able to pick up the 4G LTE signal? I was actually walking by the 90/94 area which is highlighed on Sensorly as having 4G and it wouldn't pick it up, and my 3G was also very, very slow? I cycled through airplane mode, but nothing happened. Thoughts?
-
So, technically the tower can transmit a LTE signal over a mile? Since it seems that the UIC tower seems to be over 1.5 miles from the Ohio exit on 90/94.
-
I am glad to see that some city of Chicago areas are seeing some LTE. : ) I wonder how long it takes from the time a Tower is completed to the time it get lit? I have one close to my house that was recently added to the completed list and haven't seen a 4G signal yet.
-
I have a question regarding a tower that was on the list of sites that would receive the NV upgrade. Technically, this tower was about 1000' from my home. The building that it was on burned down about a week ago. What will Sprint do? Will they just eliminate the area? Would they secure another space on another building in the area?
-
Do we know when the other completed sites will be turned on? I see that only certain areas have been lit, when compared to the map of completed sites. Also, I do see that in fact some completed sites are within city limits. Do we know how many sites on average are completed by the Samsung team per week?
-
So, you have seen work within the city limits? If so, great!
-
On the map of completed sites. I don't see any in Chicago that seem to be completed. Is that possibly true? So, no sites are ready in the city of Chicago? : (
-
When you say "Servers in both Chicago and Arlington Heights" Does that mean that you are getting signals in the City of Chicago?
-
Does this mean that the signal will start becoming discoverable on the 21st as noted on the leaked document? Or does deployment mean something else?
-
Anybody in the City of Chicago experiencing any 4G LTE love?
