  1. Happy to know we are driving around here... reminds me of wardriving back in the day.

     

    Hey, are you having problems sending SMS/MMS? Getting "network setup error 2112" when trying to send texts and pictures just won't send unless I restart my phone. Updating the PRL and profile did nothing to help. Talked to sprint. They "provisioned" my sms/mms... Guessing they just deleted the sock and added it back on. Didn't help.

     

    No problems with my SGS3. I'm on unrooted stock.

  2. I'm a new member with a little inside info. Here is what I know. There are currently 4 LTE sites in south King and north Pierce counties. These sites are as follows. Petrovidski road near the King county shops (north end of lake youngs res), S.E. 208th near Kent Ridge highschool, 7404 20th St E, Fife and the intersection of E. Fairbanks and E. Portland in Tacoma. The issue with having a few LTE sites on the air is this; Spring's existing 3G CDMA equipment is all Alcatel/ Lucent, as is the switch in Redmond. The new LTE equipment here is Samsung, as is the switch. While there is a way to emplement a soft handoff between the two systems, Sprint is opting not to do this. So, if you are driving past a new, operational LTE site, your call will be dropped, phone picked up by the Samsung site and if you redial and contenue to drive, it will happen again when you get in range of the next ALU site. Sprint had planned to turn up entire sectors at a time to minimise this issue but has recently decided to instead turn up the new sites as soon as they are ready. Expect handoff issues! The next regions in western Washington to deploy are south of Olympia down the I-5 corridor and SR-12, and north of Marysville up the I-5 corridor and HWY-20. I hope this was informative. More when I know more.
