I dialed *99 with my Airave 4 and got error message. Based on signal check, I am definitely on my Airave

Huh, it's not working anymore for me.

Initially looks good.  The reason why I asked was in many LG phones, turning off b25, disables all LTE.  The band priority on some LG phones displays nothing when you click on it.

Huh, didn't know that. My LG G3 and G4 didn't have those issues if I remember.

Maybe I am missing something, but I don't see band 25 turned off with the other LTE bands stll functioning nor do I see the band priorities listed or allowing you to change them.

I'm pretty much sure that you tap on "Band 25 Enable" from On to Off and then the to change the Band Priority you just tap on it and rearrange it. http://imgur.com/a/DNRICJB

Edit, disabling only B25

Can you turn off b25? Does it allow you to change band priorities? Thanks

Yes: 

and yes.

Is it device specific or something like 123456?

Yup 😕

It's 221***

I got the MSL code, took about 30 seconds with Chat tech support.

My V50 has arrived!

I was able to activate it on my Everything Data Share Plan with no issues! So far coming from my Essential Phone (Stock Android), LG's Skin is a little overwhelming but I was able to disable duplicate apps and bloatware using this guide. So far I like it, the display is a big upgrade and the speakers sound really good.

Before any of you ask, I'm not in a 5G market yet, hopefully soon I will be able to test it out. I got this device pretty cheap ($14/month flex lease) and the two year warranty is nice if I decide to keep it. I've been wanting to upgrade from my Essential Phone and decided to go with this.

Here are the engineering screens:

5G NR Engineering Screen (there's one setting to just enable it or disable): https://imgur.com/a/xMvfj2Y

If anyone knows the MSL Code for LG, let me know. 000000 isn't working.

It might be a market thing.

ohh i stand corrected!  verified again does not work on the voice amp.

Someone else said it didn't work on their Airave 4. However, we both don't hear the 3 beeps when starting or answering a call.

Nope that doesn't work on airspan devices. 

It works on my Airave 4.

Yes confirmed calls work.  Tested two different phones, Moto z2 force and note 9.

Does *99 work? (It would say "You are now within Airave Coverage")

So it's up and running. Here's a screenshot from signal check pro. It looks like I'm connected to the voice side, but when I place a call I don't hear the 3 beeps.

Try dialing *99 and see if you hear the pre-recorded message ("You are now within Airave Coverage."). 

My Airave 4 finally shipped! ETA of May 29th!

i actually tried with a Atlanta server from NordVPN and I got blocked. But once I selected a different Atlanta server it worked. They might be catching on. 

Incognito mode helped. It might be a cache or cookie thing.

I might! 🤩

Hope this helps.

Under the My Sprint > Click Permissions > Once you are there click my account tab, which should take you to the old layout > Look under "your bill" you see "Recent payments" > click see details > on the right side of the page look under "I want to..." and click "see my order history", it should be a DM14 order ID and you should be able to use sprint.com/myorder to see what the orders are. It will only show once someone processed the order into the system though.

 

Let me know if you can't access it still.

Got it.

It's not in my account though under devices.

No notification, I had to go through the old layout they still got running to find it which shows you all the orders you have placed over the years.

Funny thing is it looks like they ordered me two of them somehow. 😂

Can you link that or share how to get to that (where it shows all the orders)?

Silly question. I get you used a VPN but what about your shipping address? You think they will send it still?

I personally don't think Sprint took the system that far. It's possible but it's much easier just to IP locate and restrict from their website. Plus they could have stopped me at checkout with the shipping address but they didn't. There could also be reasons to allow any shipping address.

I'm more curious what happens over the phone. Will they just say no?

So after some thinking, I decided to pre-order the LG V50 5G from Sprint. I hate leasing phones and I wasn't planning on getting it but at $14/month, why not? Let's just hope that 5G gets enabled in my market in the next 18 months. I had to use a VPN to order it since I'm not in one of the launch markets.

Is the new Airave  that won't broadcast a WIFI access point out yet?

You can disable the WiFi on the Airave 3 by logging into it.

Hopefully who ever made this site: https://rf.jwmaloney.name/sprint-coverage.html can link into the 5G ort map: https://coverageort.sprint.com/IMPACT.jsp? so it would be easier to see where there is 5G.

Very interesting find! May I ask how you found it? Were you testing different URL's?

Any url from the sprint.com domain with "ort" is a test site. Newer sites I don't think use ort anymore but many of them are internal meaning you need to be on their intranet. I guess a few of them slip through and this is one of them.

I simply used Google. https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Asprint.com+"ort"&oq=site%3Asprint.com+"ort"

I found this weird coverage map site from Sprint, I think it's a test site: https://coverageort.sprint.com/IMPACT.jsp?

The updated date updates every day. I can't tell of any changes though.

With a way worse subsidy..?

It is showing up for me too, but when I sign in, it goes away. I have the ED1500. I wonder why they're showing the option for new customers where there is a subsidy fee.
