Teaser: Samsung Galaxy S5 gets a boost via Wi-Fi but not carrier aggregation
djw39 commented on WiWavelength's blog entry in The Wall
I have an app which automatically connects me to TWC WiFi hotspots around the city when within range. Sometimes these are faster than Sprint's network, but sometimes not. A service which keeps both connected and automatically uses whichever is faster seems useful. -
Word. Uptown too Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk

I thought the button configuration was the oddest thing about the One, I ended up getting an Optimus G which has a more standard three button layout. Exciting if HTC has seen the light there. Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk

Well I am glad to hear it is not just me. I was uncertain if this was just because I am running CM11 or if it was a thing with the network in Charlotte. At least I an finally getting LTE uptown. Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk

Site acceptance reports from Tuesday (12/3), Wednesday (12/4), Thursday (12/5), Friday (12/6): * Charlotte - 2 updates (3G) One of those was the last un-updated tower uptown! Yay. Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk

5.1 kB/s today at 5th and Tryon outside. I have never seen LTE on Tryon st. Occasionally at college or further east, but it is weak e.g. 2mbps down. Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk

Awesome! Uptown needs some serious sprint love Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk

Looks like they hit one of the two remaining towers uptown on Wednesday Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk

This does appear to be the massive update I was waiting for, they have finally 3G accepted most of the remaining towers inside I-485. I think there are still two sites uptown that haven't been touched, and some others near where I live that are shown as 3G only, but this was an incredible update. Now, in practice, I'm uptown now and connecting to EV-DO Rev. A in areas where it used to say eHRPD, and latest speed test was 8.5 kB/s, so evidently this stuff is not truly up and running just yet. And no sign of LTE. We shall see...

I'm not even sure it's the same tech: I recall the G2 had some kind of dedicated RAM in the display that enabled it to refresh itself? Supposedly saving battery. Does the Nexus include this as well? Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk

So is the pattern Thursday updates for Charlotte? Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk

Isn't Apple the first manufacturer to sell a Sprint phone with band 26? Looks to me like if anyone is treating Sprint as second class it's Motorola. And Google with no Nexus 4 at all. Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk

"Site acceptance reports from Tuesday (10/15), Wednesday (10/16), Thursday (10/17): * Charlotte - 25 updates (3G)" Oh dip Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk

You are just making a joke right? I thought we had pictures showing it on top. Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 4

(I'm not jumping to Verizon, that's somebody else.) There is one tower just outside of uptown that is broadcasting 4G so you can sometimes get a signal, but the main sites in the city have not yet been upgraded. And definitely no coverage indoors. Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 4

Sure...wake me up when there is LTE uptown Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 4

* Charlotte - 1 update (LTE) woot Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 4

People have to get off this fantasy that Sprint will "refresh" a phone with additional LTE bands. There may be a new Motorola phone before next summer but it will be either 5+ inches, or a low-cost variant, or have a keyboard or something. Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 4

The review in question was written by Ron Amadeo, formerly of Android Police. In no way could he be described as an Apple "fanboi".

How did it work with T-Mobile and the Nexus 4? I'm thinking it is $350 off contract and $200 on. Which will kind of feel like a ripoff either way, strangely... Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 4

Put me down as pleasantly surprised. Even their mid-priced iPhone 5c has the 800 band? I was not expecting that for sure. Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 4

Guys he is not secret, his name is Evan Blass and he is profiled at the link in my last post. He was a senior editor at Engadget and managing editor at pocketnow for many years. Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 4
