thanks for the info in this thread.  i ran across that search-error.com landing page today instead of seeing a domain name had expired. not cool, sprint!  such a scammy looking site too.

My wife has confirmed my idea that Sprint voice quality has been very poor the last few weeks. I have noticed garbled audio and dropouts at home in Kentwood (southeast grand rapids)... I have an HTC one, and she has the htc evo 4g lte... always the optimist, I'm looking forward to hd voice working someday! Every new device renewal of contract I think "this will be the year it all comes together for Sprint!"

The Michigan thread in the sponsors' section is still pretty active

I finally gave in and donated a few bucks :-)

Hey guys I saw this on my way home today. I am thinking they are Sprint LTE tower antennas, but not for certain. The truck/trailer was going north on the East Beltline near 44th St. I am hoping they were for Sprint towers!! Enjoy, and sorry for uploading to Flickr since they were over my upload quota for the site. 1) http://flic.kr/p/efkiE5 2) http://flic.kr/p/efkiQ7 3) http://flic.kr/p/efez1n

Sweet! We could use some lte around 44th and the beltline!

I was pretty jealous to be getting strong LTE in Lowell today when I can't get any in Kentwood yet...

Interesting. I suppose maybe he was on AT&T and that's why he had better signal... I couldn't pull 1x or roam...

After getting my first taste of LTE in Portland a few weeks ago I was happy to pickup LTE in Cascade near old 28th street last week! Also sensorly mapped my trip from GR to Baldwin on m-37, but no LTE action there yet...

I was really hating on my Evo 4g LTE antennas in Baldwin as I had to hike a hill to get service while another guy with an iPhone 4s even had data in the cabin!

Yay sprint, bring on the Michigan LTE!

 

Wow...I did say that. That was a mis-type on my part. I meant that we we are releasing the info early on these two markets. Not that they are early in deployment in the second round. That is a huge error on my part. Now I see what you are referring to. I thought you were referring to the list order in the thread. My apologies for the confusion.

No worries, thanks for owning it!

 

 

As a fellow Michigander (well, ex-patriot), I feel your pain. However, the list was just recently put into order. It was not in order previously where you noticed West Michigan. I'm sorry to be the source of your discomfort.

Thanks for the response, Robert! I'm sure I assumed too too much from the linked post for west Michigan stating "two relatively early Round Two markets in Sprint's Network Vision/LTE deployment plans for 2012. West Washington and West Michigan." Did I mention I'm an optimist! ;-) relatively... Either way, I appreciate the updated info, still better than not knowing!

While I appreciate the great insider info and technical insight you provide here I am bummed see West Michigan drop down from the top of the round two list... Brings back the old pain of waiting for wimax with with my epic4g... I was going for a shorter wait with my evo4gLTE. Oh well, that's what I get for being an optimist...
