    Network Vision/LTE - East Michigan Market (Detroit/Flint/Ann Arbor/Tri-Cities)

    in Markets

    That is great news.  The farthest east I have seen 1x800 was Ovid on M-21.  I don't think any of the towers around me have 1x800 equipment.  Maybe I will have to take a closer look.

    I've been reporting this area a lot for poor coverage and data speeds over a few years. I used to get -95 to -115, now I get around -85 to -105 db.

     

    Surprisingly my AirAve is still being useful as my phone for some reason connects to it via EVDO and 1X800 via the tower.

    Sprint Yellow Fan Studio Videos

    in General Topics

    Posted · Edited by notsrealinc

    Hello everyone!

     

    In the fast few months, I have been collecting videos from Yellow Fan Studios which is Sprint's creative media department. I also found some other cool stuff.

     

    Now I am not a Sprint employee which makes it hard to find new videos since they are all unlisted. They used to be all public but not anymore. I assume Sprint employees can get access to them with iConnect or something like that. 

     

    You may be wondering, how do I find these videos? 

     

    If you enter into Google, "by yellow fan studios" site:youtube.com  You will find many playlists of liked videos of people liking those videos from YFS. I believe the liked playlist is public by default on YouTube which makes it easier to find videos since when you like a video, it automatically puts it in that playlist.

     

    So I gathered all the videos and put them all in a public playlist here and some extra videos from when they were public:

     

     

    Note: If you have access to YFS videos, if you can maybe share them here in this thread? Otherwise new videos that show up in the Google search I will update and new videos posted here if I get to it.

     

    Most of the videos now in that playlist has videos called the Weekly which is like a weekly news show about Sprint. It features Christopher Ian Bennett which made news here:

    There are also some other videos. When YFS was public, they were putting out this new show called The Harrison Wiley Show. There is a puppet which is the main guy that interviews people. All I got to see was episodes 1-3 which featured Güenther Ottendorfer. Sadly, all the episodes were all deleted but I was able to download episodes 1 and 2.

    Finally I wanted to share this site which hosts Sprint's commercial archive.

     

    http://sprintcreativemedia.com/commercialarchive/index.php#/page/1

     

    You can find the latest commercials going all the way back to September of 2014. 

     

    When you enter the URL into Google, it also brings up this site

     

    http://sprintcreativemedia.com/yellowfan/

     

    It talks about what YFS is and what they do.

     

    Anyways, if you want to share something go ahead! All this I found on my own with Google, I have no relation with Sprint other than being a customer.

    Network Vision/LTE - West Michigan Market (Grand Rapids/Lansing/Kalamazoo)

    Is this truly B26 LTE or something funky in B25? From Moto X Pure, so band identification is bad on debug screen. Can anyone do the math on the channels? I'm driving...

    That is great! Hopefully we can see more expansion of it in Lansing, I will have to start to look out for it. On a side note, Rootmetrics posted their results for 1H 2016 for Lansing, Sprint went down to 4th place: http://www.rootmetrics.com/en-US/rootscore/map/metro/lansing-mi/2016/1H

    It looks like Marcelo apologies again on Twitter saying he should have known better, lesson learned

    In a series of three tweets on Twitter he states the following:

    "I’ve just read all the comments regarding the video we posted and I want to profoundly apologize again to anyone I offended. As a proud Hispanic immigrant, I should have been more sensitive and known not to publish the customers’ comment. This was an honest mistake and lesson learned."
