  1. Has anyone figured out what the problem with LTE is? My G2 has gotten LTE for about 10 minutes (immediately after talking to tech support about the issues and doing some kind of reset through dialing ##72786#). since then, 3g only, including when right next to working towers with other phones connected to LTE... extremely frustrating to have a new phone unable to connect properly!
  2. While I don't much care for Apple and their products, build quality and some parts of the designs they produce seem to be great. I don't want an iPhone, but a phone that feels like an iPhone? I can go for that.
  3. At least at the store I went to, with my voice, it worked even though it had not been set up, you just have to think to try talking to it anyway haha. It worked amazingly well for the noise level, and turned on quite quickly upon saying the phrase. Screen size might be hard to adjust to if you have a current high end phone, but is the same as my Galaxy Nexus, so it feels just fine to me.
  4. The funny thing is, that's really a big selling point for me, but rather the size, build and quality. holding the phone, playing with it (at at&t) it just feels great, in a way that very few phones do. I would compare it to when I first played with the original evo; it just feels great.
  5. I bought one, but through telesales, as I was told no stores had received them yet (across the country according to some I spoke to). I should get it today supposedly, though the tracking looks more like tomorrow... I think it will be pretty near ideal for me, but I'm a bit worried that in a year I will regret not waiting for a tri-band device.
  6. Just got LTE from the Franklin Ave station to the Lake Street station on the light rail. Is there any info on the engineering screen that could help determine the tower its coming from? I don't have time to search for it right now, so hopefully it is still turned on tomorrow!
  7. Sorry, I knew it was Brooklyn Center, I just didn't know what/where Hilltop is (like a park, neighborhood, town... no idea). Thank's to aliensporebomb, I know now I would assume it's the Brooklyn center on that has shown up between Fridley and Hilltop, but maybe there is a second tower over there?
  8. I'm certainly no expert, but the antennas don't look like network vision on that tower to me. Additionally, I looked at the map of all towers in the sponsors area, and that tower doesn't appear to be a Sprint tower at all. Here's two close up pics I took of a Sprint tower with NV completed (the one in Brooklyn Center). Notice the boxes right behind the antennas, and how there are not a lot of antennas (though there are still a few really old ones on this tower).
  9. I don't actually know the area at all, so I'm not sure if it's in hilltop... its right behind the Country Inn, just off 694.
  10. I was out there a few days ago trying to add to the map. I didn't get signal very far from the tower, maybe a half mile at most, though I was not on the highway where the signal appears to extend a bit further. The tower is very short, I'd say 50 feet. here's a photo of it, taken from maybe 50 feet away. I'm not sure, but I think it takes a bit before your phone will connect to LTE, so if you are driving by, you might not ever see it.
