Currently on 1x800 on the stock 25015 PRL in Mooresville. First time I've connected to it. SignalCheck shows a 15db advantage over EVDO. Have been connected for about an hour solid.
-
When they start turning on the 800mhz signal in Charlotte will we need a new PRL or will 25015 pick up the signal?
-
Looks like another NV tower in the Ballantyne area came online today. My RSRP went from (-114)-(-118) to (-82)-(-89) in my office.
-
I'm heading to Southpark this evening from Ballantyne. I'll see if I can fill in the blank spot on Carmel Rd. on Sensorly.
-
I mapped some south of Charlotte on 521.

I really thought they were going to leave the 4g on this time... It's off again in Ballantyne. They must be doing some work because EVDO is down too. Only getting 1xRTT 1498ms Ping and 0.03Mbps UL/DL. Edit: as of 9:12am 4g is back. 22Mbps DL 7Mbps UL
-
Net Monitor showed me connected to the tower at Carmel and Pineville-Matthews Rd with LTE. I haven't seen LTE from this tower before.
-
Ballantyne tower is back online and speeds are really good. Seems to be back at full strength signal too.
-
Ballantyne LTE has been off for over a month now.
-
That was me. I went for a hike on the Pinnacle Trail and noticed 4g was lit up.
-
The tower in Ballantyne is still blocking access and this week I've noticed that voice calls are dropping left and right as I travel along Johnston Rd. through Ballantyne. It is frustrating to know that if that tower wasn't being blocked I'd have full voice signal and LTE.
-
I think Mooresville is considered to be part of the Charlotte market so it should launch at the same time as Charlotte. It will take time for 100% of the NV towers to come online but hopefully it will be sooner than later. I have family in Mooresville and they are far enough down Brawley School Rd. that they pick up the towers in Cornelius and Davidson over the lake.

I swear Sprint is reading this forum and messing with me. All day no LTE and no connecting to the Ballantyne NV tower and in the last 10 minutes it is connecting no problem with LTE. Connection strength is down sitting around -109dBm to -118dBm depending where I am in the office but at least my phone is seeing the tower now. It is obvious they are doing some testing/modifications so I won't waste anymore space posting everytime LTE goes out/comes back. Can the phone connect to one tower for data and another for voice? Netmonitor shows me cycling between 3 towers now but my 4G hasn't dropped out. Either they turned on 4G at two more towers or I'm connecting to one for data and the others for voice?
-
I haven't been connecting to the NV tower in Ballantyne at all today. Netmonitor shows me connecting to the tower near Carmel Road and Pineville-Matthews Rd. which hasn't had any backhaul enhancements yet. My speeds went from 25+mbps down 8+mbps up last week to 0.25mbps down and 0.10mbps up this week.
-
I'm not sure if they are doing more work on the tower or they are intentionally blocking the LTE but it looks like the Ballantyne tower is back to 3G only. Edit: There are some offices in my building that are line of sight to the tower and I can pick up a 4G signal there, but the speeds are way down from earlier just like kendokken3 said below. I previously had full signal <-93dBm of LTE in most of my building so they must be doing something to limit the signal.
