  1. Yeah for

    I still have that problem. The only reason I'm anxious for LTE. But with zero site work being done in south east Franklin county and north west Fairfield county I think I'm stuck without it for awhile. Finally found out who's going on the newly constructed tower near US33 and Pickerington Road, that's AT&T and T-Mobile. I can see it from my house. Sprint is really making it hard not to switch,

     

      

    If you're thinking about switching to t-Mobile, have fun.

    Yeah for real. They are in no way a rural carrier.
  2. I saw that new purple over by Worthington on Sensorly. So, Less than 7 hours till iDen is forever a part of history. Wondering if they were waiting to shut off towers so that they could just deploy rapidly in July? Just a random thought, prob no validity, but its odd that we aren't seeing 800 1xAdvanced on this new tower yet, maybe its going to be deployed in mass with LTE next month, one can hope I can't wait to rid myself of my AirRave!

  3. Just got back from testing off morse rd. it popped up right as I got off 270 and kept rolling all the way to i70 and popped up here and there on my sprint ipad all the way to 270 and 23 very weak up there. It was great! Have a note II so I'm not sure if I can get 800 yet I know Note II had a prl update to remove 800 until they could get the compatibility issues resolved. Wow!

  4. I hope the one by me in Reynoldsburg gets he upgrade soon. They did the fiber for it a while back, but it's one of the weird ones on top of a utility tower. Probably needs a special crew.

    I saw a tower like that driving down Lancaster rd the other day, is that what you mean by on top of like a power pole?

  5.  

     

    I definitely do. I'm content without knowing, don't want to drive you away. I can tell it's not that source of "My buddy sells phones at a local Sprint store and he said we're totally not getting LTE until 2016."

     

    The problem with that is am a rep and we aren't given this information. And if anyone in the store had it it would be me. I have heard what my reps tell me and it seems reliable but 2016 that's just not feasible. We are going to be live before that....now when...I don't know. I feel like sprint isn't sure because of the amounts of variables with the legacy towers, fiber, and man power just remember we all have knowledge and were pooling it together. Some have way more than us. But in the end. Network Visions goals are to be mostly completed by the end of this year nationwide. It's aggressive and we can see that. Now my birthdays May 31st so I'm going to start mapping around then since that's what I've heard would be best.

  6. I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about LTE and repeaters. We have a nice expensive repeater set up at work to get better voice quality. Will LTE amplify over existing cdma pcs repeaters in the same way voice and data do?

  7.  

     

    It's hooked up all right, I don't think fiber has been ran yet to the tower... Concrete and gravel all around it and no new flags, signs of any digging.

     

    Sent from my HTC EVO 4G LTE

     

    There was a man from Ericsson I met the other day and he said that they were involved in columbus NV upgrades. I didn't realize this.....is this confirmed on here by anyone? He also mentioned it not being complete till end of year .....which I see feasible for our entire market but surely we will see some live activity sooner than later. I hope he was just a negative nelly!

  8. Also boost mobile and virgin Mobile offer lte phones on top of the 4g wimax phones as of March 7th it still amazes me that people are so un knowledgeable about sprint lte the guy says since I'm able to order virgin boost mobile lte phones on March 7th that's when lte will be active in Columbus

     

    Why would you take a retail associates word? They come here to read what's going on :P
