I forgot to post this when I took the test. Band 41 site near Maple Grove & Franklin in Boise. Since then Band 41 has made its way into Nampa.

I can't upload the pic but here is the link

I'll check Boise when I go to work

This is why we cannot have nice things -- and should not have "unlimited" data.

My G2 and Nexus were really good RF wise, but my G3 seems to transition between 3G/B26/B25 and stay connected to LTE much better. I got decently big hands so the G3 is pretty easy one handed. The G3 also has WiFi calling.

The S3 will be a decent midrange device with Tri-band

The etf buyout did replace the $100 framily port in. The $200 framily switch is a targeted offer that ends on 4/10. 

My first smartphone was the Treo 800wx, it's where my smartphone addiction started.

First Band 26 sites accepted in the Idaho market. Details in the Premier Sponsor B26/LTE 800 thread.

Came across some B26 LTE in downtown Boise,ID on my G2

No but there was a update that I got Wednesday that added KNOX to the tab 3

Did your tab 3 update to 4.4.2?

So I am surprised there is not one of these. But I thought it would be nice since I have a question. Has anyone found a way to access "enginerring" screens on this tablet. I used to have a tab 2 on Verizon and could access it then. Any Ideas?

Download an app called PRL helper, it allow you to access some of the extra settings.

They glass protectors are great. I had the zNitro tempered glass on my iPhone 5 and loved it, but they don't have it for my Nexus 5 :/. I'm thinking going with spigen's glass protector since I've good luck with their case and it's a decent price. 

You can still do 2yr upgrades if you're on the ed 1500 or the unlimited my way plan. If you're eligble for easy pay you can do it on the ed1500, unlimited my way, or framily plan.

I think i'm lucky in the situation of which tower i'm connected to for LTE, only have 4 Sprint towers and 2 of them are LTE accepeted (opposite ends of the valley). 

If I had my S3 id definitely be trying it, I loved it on my Note 2

Whenever I do passive scans or map trip on my tab 3/N5, the update shows in couple of hours at most. I do live SE idaho n we have 4 towers in our area

How difficult was it to get the 32GB from Google added to Sprint? I don't know if they ended up adding to the system automatically or what.

Its pretty easy. I normally use sprint.com, but when I switch to or from my Nexus 5 I have to use the chat option when on Sprint.com. 

I can't tell you what it is, but I can tell you, this is the year of Tri-Band, so there are going to be great devices launched 2nd quarter some the likes of Samsung and maybe even HTC. The reason why I say to buy the Nexus 5 off contract is because it will give you some of the latest features out. It will do that for only $150 additional than buying a Premium Newly released device on Contract ($149-$199). Buying off contract allows you to keep your upgrade discount to buy a newly released premium device when that time comes.

 

I'm pretty sure, even though this is just guessing, that 95% of Nexus 5 owners here, purchased the device off contract to allow them to buy a future device on discount.

I been eligible sinnce Feb 2013 but decided it was better to buy Nexus 5 off contract plus i could get the 32GB version

I woke this morning n grabbed my tab 3 n noticed it was connected to 1x800. I dont know how to access the engineering screens since my tab ddoent have a dialer, but heres a screenshot

Does anybody between the Boise to SE Idaho region, that has a Nexus 5, have issues with connecting to LTE due to CSFB issue? I didn't have an issue with in Idaho Falls on my N5

On my trip from Pocatello to Ammon, I noticed the coverage along the freeway has improved greatly and the 3g was speed was impressive. My phone Tab 3 and N5 stayed connected to 1x800 most of the time (my tab 3 is still on it). When I connected to 4g my Tab 3 was averaging 7-8Mbs, my N5 had to be forced to 4g and averaged 5Mbs...both had peaks around 12Mbs.

These are some screenshots while on 1x800, I also mapped/speed test on Sensorly.

I can't wait til they get this CSFB issue fixed so I can fully use my N5

I been waiting for a triband. Im buying Nexus 5 from Google

I just got a two year contract im eligible for one up on march. Is this better than the 450 plan with unlimited data

Depends on what phone you choose and what discount you get. Being on an individual line it advantageous to do it

It does. I processed a One Up for a customer porting over to sprint and submitted their credit union port in credit

Those ebay specials are amazing prices, I ordered mine for the $8.97, hopefully the wait for the Nexus 5 isn't too long

Its beneficial to do it closer to your activation date, cause there is usually offers for port in credits.
