Ok so they list new towers in the total count for the area but they no longer actually show those locations on the maps? They should fix that. But I don't believe these new towers to be true anyway as I can look up this market using an internal database tool that I can get access to sometimes and there haven't been any actual new towers in this area in a couple of years. So there's really not two new towers here so it makes no sense that they would even list two. Unless they are counting a site decommission and a replacement site next to it which has happened a couple of times.

When I visit Sprint's own network enhancements map at: https://network.sprint.com/ and select 'Anaheim, CA' from the drop down menu it brings up a map with 438 total upgrades showing inlucing 2 new towers. But I carefully searched and cannot find those 2 new towers anywhere. It seems as if Sprint forgot to show the new towers on the maps even though they are apparently supposed to be there. Ok so maybe just an oversight by the map people? Well this isn't the first time. The last time the map showed a new tower somewhere in Los Angeles, CA I couldn't find it either. In some of the other markets I couldn't find the new tower locations either. Can anyone actually find ANY new tower locations in any market?

Yeah I am pretty sure I also hit LTE there yesterday. It does have NV equipment.
-
Nope. It has 25013.
-
Does the LG Optimus G scan for 800SMR first?
-
Got this in Yorba Linda the other night. Not sure which site it was coming from.
-
For a while I would drive by the Anaheim Lakeview/Kaiser site and my phone would only show 3G so I assumed that they had turned off LTE. But I think what was happening was my phone was taking a long time to switch over to 4G. On the latest drive over there I had to wait almost 7 minutes before my LG Optimus would switch from 3G to 4G even though I was in the parking lot of Kaiser right next to the site. I also hit 4G today at the Euclid/22 cell site.
-
91 freeway in Anaheim near Lakeview was back on with LTE last night.
-
Just drove by the Lakeview Kaiser site again and there's still no LTE.
-
That tower has had NV equipment and RRU's for at least a month now. Maybe two months. I wonder what the hold up is in getting it officially on air and with LTE?
-
Yes I know. No LTE there yesterday around 1PM. The last three times I have driven over there I got 3G only.
-
Just came from there. No LTE. Was in the parking lot of Kaiser for 10 minutes and 3G only.
-
That's not Sprint. That's a T-Mobile site and has been there since the old Pac Bell wireless days. T-Mobile is always working on their sites and changing up panels.
-
Is that the one disguised on the fake building structure South of Jamboree on the East side of the freeway? The one West of the 5 and North of 133 in the field is a T-Mobile site. Assuming you are talking about the one in the field of trees.
-
I drove by that site twice last week and no LTE either time. The most recent time was Sunday. Hope they leave it on now.
-
All they need to do is add a backhaul upgrade to the existing tower overlooking the stadium for more capacity which I'm sure is going to happen in the near future if it hasn't already. For the text messaging failures they would need to add a new voice carrier which Sprint has been doing a lot of lately in high capacity areas. They added new voice carriers near Staples Center, UCLA, USC and the Long Beach Convention center during the past 12 months.
-
Yep. That one circled in red is Sprint. It provides a great signal inside stadium. Not sure why you are wanting anything more but Sprint will not be putting anything inside the stadium with an existing tower so close. I go to Dodger games all the time and never had any signal issues.
-
Sprint has a tower disguised as a tree overlooking the stadium on a hill which can be seen when looking up over the right field side. So this one being built is for someone else. Looks like AT&T to me but I can't tell for sure.
-
Noticed some LTE in San Juan Capistrano on Ortega Hwy between Antonio Pkwy north to Caspers Park.
-
Anyone have an answer as to why the LTE keeps coming and going on these new NV sites? Is the testing really that complicated that it requires so many on/off's?
-
I don't have it yet. I'm sure I will be last on the list to get it *rolls eyes*. But the official Sprint version is LS970ZVA and not ZVB as reported by others as an LG leak version.
-
Not sure what happened but Firefox is working great now with the map. Loads fast and no lock ups.
-
Yeah the site I mentioned in OC isn't too far away from me. If I get a chance I will drive over there and see if I can pick up any 800 Mhz. Or will my phone (LG Optimus G with PRL 25012) not be able to do that?).
-
I can confirm that is accurate. I believe that person is using the same tool that I check.
-
Ok so let me ask you something. If 800 cannot be used in San Diego County then why does the network vision sites complete map show green markers (3G/800/4G) in the Carlsbad/Oceanside area? Also in Orange County site ID [redacted] shows as a 3G/800 site.
