Confirmed through @sprintcare on Twitter that the tower closest to Holmes and Prospect Roads in Ypsilanti is LTE now. Doesn't mean it's throwing out LTE all the time, but I don't have an LTE device to check.

So, donation is clearly in order... Im thinking 20-30 based on the info ive obtained prior to my reception of lte...is fair...

 

Are you guys really this dedicated? I presume sprint doesn't directly employ you...so I'll add this much. If sprint hired employees on the cust serv side who were about .001% committed as the crew on here.... They'd be on top of the fortune 500. The knowledge base alone, and the quality of information is light years above the 2nd or 3rd level of support sprint can supply.

I have this vision of Robert (the guy who moderated this forum) as some guy at Sprint who wears a bad disguise to work in order to get information to bring back to us. Someone that the higher-ups never suspect, because the fake moustache and unassuming manner keep him far from suspicion.......

This site has been a boon for keeping my hopes of unlimited LTE alive :-)

Went back to work on my project and got the two bars of LTE on the rooftop again. Not really sure where the signal could be coming from since it's quite a ways away from the Plymouth and Ypsi sites

When did I miss the word that there's a site active in Ypsi? Been waiting for a little taste of LTE, whereabouts is the tower?

Just discovered Sprint 4g LTE last night 3-21-2013, over by Grand River Rd and Orchard Lk Rd. Drove up Grand River to Power Rd and did some speed testing. Periodically topped out at 20 Meg/S down, over 10 Meg/S up. Fastest test was at approx. 17.5 MB/S down. I was impressed to say the least! Ran these tests with 2 bars, up to 3-4 bars up the middle of Grand River Rd. Lesser results on side streets 1.5 MB/S to 6 MB/S with almost no bars! Saw on the Sprint site that Ann Arbor is officially listed as having 4g LTE.

Got a link to that exact page? I live in Ypsilanti, work in A2....the wife said we'd upgrade from the OG EVOs when LTE came to town, so I've been waiting with baited breath

Stupid hosting sites.. I had an LTE connection at Geddes and 23.

 

Also, this morning, I was taking State St. south and picked up LTE as I crossed 94 (like by Briarwood). I made a left (so headed east towards Ypsi) on Ellsworth and held onto LTE until I hit Golfside.

 

So that's basically all of Ellsworth from State St. to Golfside.

 

If only I could have mapped that on Sensorly from my iPhone (although, I did write a very detailed email in French to Sensorly asking that they release an app for jailbroken iPhones -- or allow manual uploads via screenshots lol).

Thanks a ton, greatly appreciated! Hoping that LTE is a viable service/realistic prospect by the time my contact is up in March.

Odd, I seem to be unable to "follow" this thread. Following other ones works fine...

Me either, posted about that a while ago, thought I was the only one :-)

No Michigan cities or towns even on this list, but much smaller areas are on it. I'm trying to figure out what Detroit/lower southeast Michigan ever did to Sprint to deserve the cold shoulder.

A little off topic, but I can't seem to get this forum to subscribe for me in XDA I'll click on it to subscribe and the two seconds later it's not on my list ..... Anyone else having this problem?

Talked to a Sprint corporate store employee yesterday who said that Sprint's timeline for having Detroit area's LTE fully up and running is now June 2013, fwiw......
