Anyone get 4.4.4 OTA pushed to their device yet?

Brick wall: Sprint eChat and eCSFB issues

I'll call back tomorrow then. (Or Monday if they're closed on weekends) -
Brick wall: Sprint eChat and eCSFB issues
burnout8488 replied to burnout8488's topic in General Topics
I called last week, nothing has changed so far. I vaguely remember seeing something on the forums about opening a ticket. They merely pinpointed the sites I was having eCSFB issues on (all of them in my market). Do I need to create a ticket to further escalate this issue? The representative mentioned that there had already been six other calls about this same issue in my market, and at six, they start to take action. I mentioned eCSFB and got no response - this team should know what that is, right? -
They turned it off, we're getting robbed. ROBBED!

Is HD Voice now on? Mine appears to be working
burnout8488 replied to Sim-X's topic in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment
100% confirmed a cross-market HD voice call today. Woo hoo!! This is actually something that happened exactly on schedule, I'm impressed. -
Any findings? I've got zilch as far as 800 goes down here still. 1900Mhz actually got worse in the last week, girlfriend's house is unusable and Sprint won't send them a free Airave even with 4 lines in the house. I told Sprint we'd send it back when 800 is live and optimized but I don't think the reps know what I'm even talking about

Sprint Offering to Cover my $20 a month unlimited data!
burnout8488 replied to Destroyallcubes's topic in General Topics
Girlfriend's brother just did this. Joined a framily, got the $200 gift card, and confirmed unlimited data free for a year with his business discount. What a freakin' bargain, we all started laughing because none of them have actually had to pay Sprint yet and they keep sending us gift cards! -

I believe I had my first cross-market HD voice call today. Lehigh Valley, PA to Binghamton, NY. The proverbial switch may have been flipped. -
Coverage maps udpated for data (LTE) to 6/10
burnout8488 replied to dkyeager's topic in General Topics
This really is a huge oversight - think of how many customers look at their market and choose to go with another carrier because there isn't any LTE showing up. When in reality, the market may be 99% launched. My home market of Binghamton NY is absolutely riddled with LTE everywhere, yet the maps only show 3G. It's been this way since early 2013. When a tower goes live, add a splotch of orange Sprint. Add a splotch. -
How much is a Max-Discount Framily Bill, w/Fees?
burnout8488 replied to burnout8488's topic in General Topics
Ah! I'll update my post so it isn't blatant misinformation then. I think that's very fair though, if a site is overloaded then it should definitely throttle to allow smooth usage for every user of the site. This is what I would expect of any network. It's why peak hours are sometimes terrible for cellular usage. -

Gotcha! Good to know. Because if we had to rely on getting more carrier cards installed or other on-site modifications to be made, it would take forever! -

So what does Sprint need to do to allow two separate markets to have HD-Voice conversations when they "flip the switch" this summer? As we all know, it's currently limited to Sprint users of the same region/market. -
Can someone analyze my market's scenario? 1x800 worked for 2 weeks in my market, everywhere. As of a few days ago, it's totally turned off, everywhere. Were those first few weeks testing, and everything should light up and go "accepted" soon? Just hoping this activity is following a trend that has been present in other markets. I was under the impression that 1x800 was blocked during testing, then released once it was done, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. I was connecting to it everywhere, now, nothing. This was from February I believe: Forecasted (Q3 schedule) BC10 Sites On-air Current on-air - 10[+]% End of 2013 - 43% Mid 2014 - 100% Guess we're almost done!

Network Vision/LTE - Rochester Market (Rochester, New York)
burnout8488 replied to S4GRU's topic in Markets
Well, think of it this way. Do you have WiFi at home? If so, not a big deal. If you have LTE on your most travelled routes and places where you use data without WiFi, that's what matters more. Can't fret over one site in an almost complete market. -
How much is a Max-Discount Framily Bill, w/Fees?
burnout8488 replied to burnout8488's topic in General Topics
The throttling is only for video streaming (False: It's everything now) and only if the site you're on is experiencing heavy load. So it wouldn't be a very common occurrence. Are there any other T&C issues that would be different from your ED plan? -
How much is a Max-Discount Framily Bill, w/Fees?
burnout8488 replied to burnout8488's topic in General Topics
Gotta be honest, I'm somewhat confused. One line has a $27 payment while the other basic lines have a $30.93 payment? Do they live in different states? It looks like we'll probably have anywhere between $4-$7 in fees per line all said and done in NY. -
You might get slapped on the wrist with that kind of talk around here! This needs to get back on-topic.

Real quick, what was the factory radio that shipped with 4.4.2? I never looked and have no clue.

burnout8488 replied to burnout8488's topic in General Topics
Wow, very nice. Think it varies by state? I'm wondering if it'll be worse in NY. -
Going to try to convince the gf's family to get on Framily this weekend which will put it at 7-8 members, aka full discount. Just curious as to what they'll actually be paying, after the surcharges and fees? $25 + ? Fees = ? Gotta show up prepared!
-
Are you on 4.4.2 or 4.4.3? I guess my comparison wasn't apples to apples, but I haven't seen 800 at all since updating to 4.4.3 with the new .13 radio. I doubt that's the problem, but still worth mentioning.

Can't get 800 whatsoever today, it seems like they turned it off down here in the Binghamton market. What's everyone else's experiences in Syracuse and Albany? I went for a drive to map out some rural areas expecting 800 to kick in but it never did, despite trying calls and whatnot. This is right before I was going to propose to get my gf's family on to Sprint from Verizon this weekend. Not helpful when they live on fringe 1900 service. 800 was working great at their place the last few weeks.
