  1. They want to work, they get paid per the job. I agree with you, I saw a crew working on one of thoses cold days. Where the weather was 20 below zero with the wind chill, More power to them and good for us. The more they work, the faster network 2.0 will get done
  2. In the Samsung market(aka Michigan)it is the cell site then has 03,04,05 instead of 00,01,02 at the end of the cell id. This can be verified though engineering screen or signal check, Also typically has a ul channel/dl channel then what you originally see.
  3. Besides what is already stated on the wall, no. They are working on funding, I can see in a few months. We will start seeing the new cell sites pop up. That would be a good time to become donate to the site, so you can see the locations of the new sites
  4. That is because your area was served by a sprint affiliate, until sprint bought them. They just offered bare min coverage to fulfill the contract. So the spacing for pcs is bad, It will be fixed as sprint is working to add new cell sites around the united states.
  5. This outage was a weird one, I wonder if sprint will ever tell us what actually happened. Until then, I am still blaming tongboy
  6. It didn't affect me, I got wi-fi calling on my m8
  7. You really didn't have to go to that much trouble for kyle bday, a simple card or hot girl with big boobs. Yet a earthquake, show off
  8. I am glad to have wi-fi calling, the outage isn't affecting me. But this does suck, I am guessing a msc issue? Yet I thought they had a back up system in place?
  9. I can only speak for chicago, I don't know your market as well. But yes when there is good area covered by band 41, The speeds improve. As band 41 coverage increases and as more people upgrade to tri-band phones. Band 25 will get faster and faster.
  10. I knew this would happen , I can't wait to see the 2H root metrics reports. Sprint will have a lot more 8t8r up by then. I know sprint will take first in a lot of cities around the united states, in the rootmetrics reports. It is exciting times right now for s4gru and sprint
  11. Sprint did get extra 10 mhz in 1900 pcs block from uscc, so they have 40 mhz in stl now plus the g block. So 50 mhz total, the same as Chicago. Give everything some time, sprint will be power house soon
  12. ATT and comcast would be my guess. I know a lot of sites in western Michigan were using att
  13. By September I can see Detroit being close to finish with band 41, they are moving at a fast rate right now. If you upgrade to 6/6s, you will get band 41 here and there. So it is really up to, the band 25 isn't going to change and you already get a phone that gets band 26 when that gets turn on. So again it is really up to you. I will say that my experenice with a tri-band, it is like night and day. So when all the bands get turned on, you will love being on sprint
  14. They are trying to upgrade the backhaul, sadly the same thing is happening with backhaul providers. They are sitting on simple upgrade order for few weeks or a few months. It is sad, If I had company that wanted increase in backhaul and I could make more money off them. I would be all over that and then some lol. Band 41 will help out a lot, sprint has a lot more room to grow on band 41. So as long as a lot of people have spark phones, you will benefit from it. Speeds in spark markets are going up on band 25, because a lot of people are using band 41 more now. The overall sprint experience is getting better and better
  15. That is because Steve Jobs thought he was always right, and everyone else was wrong.
  16. It is a network issue, I used 15-20 gb a month on average. Sprint doesn't throttle me
  17. let us celluar keep the name, they are paying 3.4 million a year for the naming rights. I would rather see that money goto new cell sites and/or them doing more band 41 sites
  18. signal check pro it was created by a member of this website http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/3060-signalcheck-android-app-to-monitor-your-2g3g4g-lte-signal-strengths/ it costs 1.99 at the play store, totally worth the 2 bucks https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blueline.signalcheck&hl=en
  19. I was in rockford about month and half ago. I saw them testing the second carrier then, it was only on a handful of sites. They were using 41776 channel(same as they used in kansas, during the world series for the second carrier/channel)
  20. That accounts for the dollar they would spend, what are they going to do with the rest of money(999,999,999,999)
  21. I noticed this a few days ago, Honestly I am glad. Because a lot of 8t8r sites now are down in the 30-40's for average here in chicago, that is ever since the iphone 6 and christmas. So I wouldn't say that is spark speeds, until they upgrade the backhaul
  22. My parents use online bill pay and pay the same about every month. No issues doing it that way
  23. They took the uscc antennas off of it and now there is nothing on it now. So it would be a great site to put up a sprint setup on it, a lot of 3g around that area.
