Great to hear this. Is this source sprint?

Not sure. We will see what happens when someone does some mapping.

Can anyone please tell me if there is ANY! Hope of me getting LTE in Lake Elsinore or Canyon Lake because here we don't even have WiMAX it's BS!

Please reply - Thank You!

You weren't hugged enough as a child. Go see your mom and give her a hug!

Although I am happy with the progress, at this point I have abandoned the hope for LTE in this spring and replaced it with just an upgraded 3G tower now.

If it helps any, I heard from a very high up reliable source that the IE will start happening really fast. In fact, it is supposed to be 100% complete before LA and OC. They just got the jump on us now. There are a lot of gaps in LA county. You go downtown Pasadena, and no coverage. None.

It is also interested that that one speck is where the Sprint Store is up in Victorville. Hmmm....

Very cool!

We haven't hit official launch yet, I don't think? So probably there are no guarantees on coverage or consistency as they set up and test the network. That's my guess anyway..

There are no guarantees no matter what. With wireless technologies there will always be spots where you don't have coverage or it is bad.

Last night I woke up about 1 am and looked at my phone. Saw the 4g signal lit up! Yay! Rancho has 4g! Then I woke up, and realized it was all a dream. I think that dream signifies things to come!

It works for me. I do admit that Sprint sucks here though. It is far better in other areas.

I know it is tough, but it would be worth the wait. All those poor fools without unlimited data!!!

It seems odd that it is taking this long. I bet we will see a bunch of sites pop up super fast. Eventually.

The phone is great. Build quality is amazing. Screen amazing. Sense.... amazing. Best phone I have ever laid my hands on.

You 2 must be joking

Don't you think that if there was a specific time we would have all been talking about it?

Any news when 4g will be here in the victorville area?

Maybe tomorrow.

As a proud denizen of flyover country, I love to hear people from SoCal mention non-important areas. Either way, the rollout schedule and the updates that have taken place were/are influenced by so much more than population size. Spectrum constrains (Chicago!), contractor and backhaul availability are just a few that come to mind.

 

That said, I believe the first of the third round markets have begun to see full installations start (Phoenix + Vegas), so Colorado should be seeing NV work soon.

I wasn't getting down on Colorado. I just moved to SoCal from there. I lived in North Douglas County. Trust me, I like CO far better than CA. As far as I am concerned, Co is among the best places in the world to live.

Sprint uses different ways to determine where they start. When you think about population, SoCal should be important. The comparison to a small town in MN to the Springs was made. If you are going by size, the Springs is low on the priority scale.

So i saw on the map update that colorado has not really had any updates unlike other states like minnesota. my grandma in hibbing mn has started to see network vision start and its very small and in colo springs where i live were kinda big and no network vision yet what is the deal with sprint and colorado network vision for LTE?????????? We need it here more then northern minnesota

Dude, you need to relax. The 3g in Colorado is amazing. Plus Colorado is not that Important. Look at LA. Not launched yet. There are more people in L.A. then in the State of Colorado. Obviously Sprints reason for one network over another is different than what you or I think should happen.

If you go back to September there was no LTE in LA at all. Now there is LTE everywhere. I know it is tough to be patient, but Robert has told us many times that things will start happening fast. He has been correct everywhere so far. I am just glad to have this website to let us know what to expect and when. At least we know a ballpark.

That seems to be normal around there. The iPhone has hurt 3g speeds a lot. There is not wimax option for them so the extra traffic hurts. Once we have LTE 3g will get faster due to less network stress.

I understand the work involved. I am just impatient. I would have thought another tower or two by now though.

Pretty disappointed that we haven't seen any more LTE in the IE yet. I was expecting to see a few more towers by now.

I had the phone and didn't have a problem. When a person comes to Sprint for a problem with their phone, it is a tough thing to deal with. People are angry and bitter. They blame Sprint and 90% of the time whatever is wrong is because they did it. Maybe through bad software, lack of maintenance, abuse or misuse. It makes it very difficult when someone has a legit problem or complaint. You have a tendency to get lumped in with all the other people. I have been on both sides, and there are no winners. I would just say always look at reviews, and trust the salesman. We get paid the same to sell a phone, no matter what one. We will usually tell you what phones people have issues with. I have not seen any with the GNEX. I do however see issues with the Iphone 5 daily. The 4s seems way more reliable.

I called sprint technical support.... they referred me to Samsung.... I talked to Samsung they referred me to sprint... its a never ending cycle..

That sucks. Unfortunately, I always recommend that people research the phone you buy. You will be stuck with it. You could look into the early upgrade program. You could sell your phone on craigslist then buy a new one. I have an EVO lte and sgs2 for sale.

 

 

Not so much that, but why does sprint need to give you a new phone? So the signal is weak. Talk to Samsung.

 

Sprint does what they need to. Not what you would necessarily like.

 

 

 

All the sprint stores I call, the employees didn't sound like they wanted to offer a replacement :\ bad luck I guess

It is always the discretion of the tech in the store. Or his/her supervisor.

Screen is smaller and not as good though. A trade off.

I am looking at getting out of Rancho and over that way. Glendora/LaVerne/San Dimas are nice places. Rancho is full of fakers who think they have money but are just in crazy debt. As far as crime, I am not too worried about it. I grew up in Flint, MI. Murder capital of the US. Anything is safe compared to that place.
