When r they going to update the market list on this site like for north la cause it says lte sites 0% when there is lte in north la market.
Robert updates that list about once a month give or take. It might be a while though since he's in the middle of moving/new job.
That 0% number really wouldn't change anyway....there are 219 sites in North LA, since 1 is live with LTE that number is like .46%. Here's a link to the article that has a map of North LA: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-330-network-visionlte-deployment-is-starting-now-in-east-kentucky-north-la-upstate-new-york-east-and-vtnhme-markets-ahead-of-schedule/
One site just went live in Santa Maria, so things are moving along on the full build sites.
Like I mentioned before, definitely consider becoming a sponsor. You'll have access to maps of all the sites and also of sites that have been completed. http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/1195-information-about-s4gru-sponsorship-levels-and-how-to-become-a-sponsor/

Lucky u. About how long does it take for permits to be issued in a county for cell sites.
It depends on the county. If I remember correctly, it took about a month for Verizon to get a permit issued for the new site they put up next to my work.
-
Since NV is expected to be more or less complete by mid next year, you'll probably pick up LTE before then. If I had to take a guess within 3-6 months, most likely sooner rather than later.
-
Here's the definition from the FAQ:
eHRPD - Enhanced High Rate Packet Data – a software overlay that allows for smooth handoff between EVDO and LTE. Click here for more eHRPD details.
-
There is no LTE live yet in Santa Maria. The only area where a 4G site has been accepted is Camarillo.
-
Unfortunately, some cities don't have their permit information available online.
-
One problem Santa Maria has/had WiMAX. I thought they get lte later then non-WiMAX.
Whether or not a location has WiMax, won't have any affect on the timing of when LTE goes live. Pretty much everywhere you have 3G now, you'll get LTE.
Clearwire however has started TD-LTE rollout: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/4675-td-lte-2600band-41-lte-info-teaser/

sweet good to know! That makes me excited! Now it's just a waiting game.. you think they are gunna do oxnard before they come here

Yep patience is the key. I think a lot of people forget that work is being done all the time, whether we see it or not. Unless you physically go to every site, you won't know what's in progress. They go to whatever site that's ready for work, regardless of where it's at.
Here, as in Ventura? There's already one site in Oxnard and a few in Ventura complete, although 3G only. I know the one near my work is waiting on fiber from ATT still. I'm guessing the others that aren't live with LTE yet are waiting on backhaul as well.
A page or 2 back I posted some pictures of sites...if you see antennas or RRU's up that look like that, you know work is being done on the site. Here's a guide on what to look for, with lots of good pictures: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/3915-how-to-spot-sprint-antennas-and-rrus-alcatel-lucent-style/

where do you work. .. im worried I wont get it in ventura because I live on the east side off telephone between Johnson and kimball
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
You'll get it there. There's a site that's pretty close to that area.
I work near Victoria and Olivas Park.
Donate and you'll get access to maps of all Sprint sites. It's worth it to see where all the sites are located and which ones are accepted.
-
So pretty much we wont have full coverage till probably next year?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
If I remember correctly, Sprint plans on having NV complete by mid 2014. In the next 3 to 6 months you'll probably have LTE in more places than not.
I'm pretty impressed that the one site covers so much area.

Also ive been getting almost everywhere ehrpd.. where I was getting evdo before.. including T.O (Where I work) also ive been roaming alot more do im hoping that means 4g in the next couple months every where I hope its not super scattered like other markets have reported
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
Unfortunately it's always scattered in the beginning. That's the nature of being able to connect as sites are done, versus blocking people until there’s enough coverage. It'll get better and better as more sites come online.
I'd rather connect to whatever is available over having to wait until coverage is "complete".

I did map it some of it missing because I was driving but it got moat of it.. it looked gapped out though
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2

I just needed to zoom in and out to get the layers to show.

New tower up in Camarillo I believe I drive everyday to work from ventura to T.O and recently ive been getting the new 4g from los posas to around carmen this time I get it from los posas to all the way up the grade into Newbury
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
Try to map it on Sensorly, if you can.
Over the weekend, I wasn't able to stay connected past around Arneill, driving on Las Posas towards Lewis. I should have been able to get signal over there, due to where the site is located. I stopped near the police station and tried cycling airplane mode, but no luck.
-
I just moved from Camarillo 2 weeks ago to ventura, im so mad I moved.. ive been waiting for 4g for so long, but I knew it was coming cause I kept roaming and getting ehrpd on and off, and now in ventura im getting it, so hopefully that means soon
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
There's a couple of sites in Ventura that I think will get LTE as soon as the backhaul is ready. I know the site near my work is waiting on it still. I stopped by it yesterday and still no fiber from ATT.

LTE is live in North LA!Mapped it on Sensorly: http://www.sensorly.com/map/4G/US/USA/Sprint/lte_310sprint#q=93010Also the antennas are up on the site near Lewis. There were guys today working on the conduit for the fiber again.
-
I see the acceptance report for the site north of Camarillo came through last night. I believe it's the first in the market?
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk 4
Yep that's the first one. Robert posted it to the maps thread before he posted the acceptance report.
It'll be sad if the other Camarillo site goes live before the one near my work in Ventura. As of last week, it was still waiting on fiber from ATT. They must hate waiting on the back haul providers to do their thing.

How do u map signals on iPhone app for sensorly
Unfortunately, you can't map on Sensory on Iphones.
-
Unfortunately, that tower is in the LA Metro market, so still no go for the North LA market.
One site just went live in Camarillo....although I didn't get a chance today to check it out. Tomorrow I'll have some time to see if I can connect to LTE near the site.
I'll also see how far along the site near Lewis is. It looked like antennas were up on it, when coming home from work today.
-
I think Agoura/Calabasas are the start of LA Metro....at least along the 101.
A site was just acecepted in Camarillo.
-
Just an update, no 1x800 today. I probably just got lucky yesterday while they were testing.
-
No, the new IPhone will not work with band 41. Unfortunately it is dual band only.

It doesn't matter who they get the fiber from, as long as it performs up to their specifications.
