I'm with sprint because

-i always go for the underdog(most people would think tmobile, but they suck...literally suck)

-i believe in sprint as a company and as a fine institution of american ingenuity, that helped build the american telecom industry (omg that was cheesy)

-crappy credit lol

Now wouldnt it make sense if sprint used wifi calling like tmobile? Instead of using femtocells they could use wifi, cut costs down and fill in some major coverage gaps that they currently have. Like for instance, i live in yuma, az (podunk desert mountain town lol) that gets decent coverage in all the towns and cities and along MOST of the major fareways. But i work at yuma proving grounds (army military testing site in the middle of the desert, with little to zero urban encroachment) and i get no coverage. The only carrier that gives GOOD coverage here is verizon. Why do you guys think the major three carriers dont provide for wifi calling?

The only thing that i can think of is MONEY. They want to make subsidies of femtocell devices, and charge for the monthly use of them. Tmobile uses it, but tmobile sucks and thats just the way the cookie crumbles. I like sprint (mostly cause their main color is yellow and i LOVE their symbol) and they are the one of the few companies that are pro consumer.

thoughts?

i have tried with that yuma foothills east site....doesnt even recognize it. tried with a nexus s 4g and a photon 4g.....zilch

well i can give you some info on the yuma foothills protection site. i have used two different 4g phones to try and get coverage of that site and it does not pick up anything. but then again its the desert and it could have been interfering with radio transmission from aliens for all we know....but it is wierd that it shows that cell site online but no signal from it. hmmmmm? i say aliens

thanks guys appreciate the feedback. but i do have another question. i currently work at yuma proving grounds and sprint has ZERO coverage here. do you guys think there is any chance they will be expanding it out here, especially since its a military base and verizon and to an extent att have coverage (att barely has coverage and mean barely usable)?

just went back to sprint yesterday and again they let me down. 220 down 630 up. then later in the evening data service went completely dark and still is....not sure if this is local or if its just sprints crappy service. it sucks cause i really want to get behind sprint as a company, but their service is horrible. unfortunately i cant afford any other service. just came from att which has 4g hspa+ here in yuma and i was getting on average 3-6 megs and on a good day 6-9 megs. but couldnt afford that, my luck. anyway anyone is yuma having problems with their sprint service...and what areas seem to be working the best.... o and good morning everyone
