For the many of you that don't understand/don't "believe" in network vision...

Android police posted this article which is actually pretty informative.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ce-but-the-800mhz-rollout-will-drop-your-jaw/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
...I understand the underlying concepts and already knew that's what the 800mHz band was capable of....but...to see it laid out like that--even as overly optimistic as internal corporate presentation slides likely are--holy ****.

Thanks for the post...I gotta admit, my jaw dropped as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
I've talked to Sprint technicians that are working on the project and they truly believe this will bring them inline with, or better than, the big two.

And that seems very likely.

Lets just hope they keep unlimited data and don't turn into At&t and Verizon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AVAH0LIC:
I've had Sprint for able 6 years, my family has had it for I wanna say 15+, they've had their ups and downs but I believe it's a stable cell phone provider. I can't ever picture myself without it :) loving my speeds, loving my service (I currently live in the country AND getting 4G) I'll always be a loyal sprint customer and this link you posted makes me happy haha

I've learned over the years to believe it when it is done rather than believe the powerpoint.

There are always caveats like, coverage is factoring in 800MHz, but some phones aren't FCC certified to work at 800MHz even though they might be otherwise capable (Photon comes to mind)

Are they running both the 1xAdvanced voice and EVDO carrier at 800 in every market on just the voice carrier or only augmented 800 in select markets? If some markets only get LTE on 800, then that won't help our phones out.

Conceptually Network Vision is the right thing to do, but there can be a significant difference between the design and implementation. The latter is where they usually see the unanticipated issues.

So yeah, it looks good on paper, let's see it in action.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSkylla:
I just went on an ADD fueled wikipedia/internet spree because I realized as I was reading that article that I knew nothing about sprints actual network or network at all. I had to keep looking up each term, staring further down Sprint's rabbit hole. I found a lot of interesting information but what really stunned me was that WiMax 4G network runs at 2.5Ghz. By comparison, Verizon's LTE network, which technically by definition is not a true 4G network, runs at 700Mhz.

I cannot wait for this upgrade to come to my area soon enough.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
Well i just speed tested both a sprint EvDo revA and roamed on versizons EvDo rev0.... Guess what. I got 1.2mb/sec on sprint ( its 3am here so ones on the towers) on verizon i got 1.9mb/sec.... Wtf!?!? I though EvDo revA was way faster than Rev0!? Yet rev0 its litterally 80% faster! Please, some one explain this to me. Please, this is actually a serious queztion

Sent From My Epic Touch 3g
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Rev0 vs RevA is just the air interface. If you connect a fast air connection to a slow backhaul then the lowest common denominator is the backhaul and that will limit your speeds. If there are too many people on the tower sharing the limited bandwidth, that will limit your speeds too.

If you connect a 802.11n wireless router to a 56k modem, what would you expect your Internet speeds to be? That is analogous to what is happening with Sprint, though the backhauls are more capable (and also shared amongst more people)

Assuming you are sure the Verizon connection was Rev 0, it is theoretically capable of 2.45Mbps while Rev A is theoretically capable of 3.1Mbps. Drop around 18-20% for actual use and you get the real-world #s.

So a fast Rev0 could easily beat a rate limited RevA on the download side.

Now the upload side, RevA beats Rev0 by more than an order of magnitude. .15M vs 1.8M theoretical. I'd be surprised if a Rev0 uplink beat a RevA uplink, but if the towers are overloaded enough, anything can happen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
That was just the info i needes. I had also wiki'd it and saw that too. But i like your real world explanation. Yup 2Mb/sec on verizon rev0 and 1.2Mbsec on sprinta revA. Eh o well. Thanks again for getting back to me. Big props to you brother!

Sent From My Epic Touch 3g
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
They have a wider bit of spectrum down there at 700mhz at a much lower wavelength. WiMax and LTE are pretty much just protocols. Verizon's LTE would suck on that thin slice of 2.5gHz and Sprint's WiMax would kick ass at 700mHz....roughly....and that's not taking into considering signal propagation and obstruction penetration.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zurginator:
My 3G speeds suck... but who cares, 4G has gone through the roof down here.

3mb/s -> 9mb/s in my living room

Not to rehash the complaints of the last year.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
700 mhz is not the best at all. It covers more area and has better building penetration, but it cannot support as many people, it's signal strength isn't as strong, and it produces slower data results.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
If it's not what you looking for then what you are actually looking for anyway?

Both links provided by Nik0n and Dope are exactly what you asked for.

Note: it is I777UCKH7 (not KK7), which is a firmware built for 2.3.4.

You will be looking forever. UCKK7 does not exist. UCKH7 is in the link provided.

no it wasnt... it was KH7 for 2.3.4 or KK6 for 2.3.6
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
In that case, you had firmware that no one here has ever seen. No one has seen a leak for this device since UCKK6, and you claim to have a newer build?

Also you claim to be looking for "2.3.4 UCKK7" - it would not make sense for Samsung to release a 2.3.6 build (UCKK6) and then immediately afterwards release a 2.3.4 build.

I'm 99% certain you misread the H as a second K and are looking for UCKH7 which has been linked to you multiple times.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crankerchick:
I have a nandroid of my rooted honeycomb 3.2.1 install. If I want to flash the leaked stock ICS, is it possible to go back to the nandroid and then go back to stock recovery to install the leak?

I understand I can use the unrooting method but I'm just trying to understand this better and understand my options. I don't wish to go back to the stock images and lock the boot loader again just to flash the update and unlock and root again if I don't have to unless that is just the best way to do it.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
I would really advise that you flash the most recent EOS wingray. Rom #36 and the GApps (Google System apps) package version 10. It seems to be more complete than the ota update, it's easier to flash and you preserve your root and recovery.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crankerchick:
Thanks, nice to see someone offer a comparison of the two packages. I'm currently running EOS build 34 from the other night. I guess i was just curious about the stock update. I know there are still some things non-functional with eos and figured the stock rom would be completely functional minus whatever bugs. It does seem like a bit of work to flash it though, since the only thing i can seem to find on what to do is saying to unroot and relock using the moto stock files.

Seems like if im interested in trying a stock rom i shojld just wait for the ota and a rom made from it with root already.

I will miss the notification tray settings in eos if i go stock!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
True, that.

EOS wingray version 36 with the version 10.1 GApps really fixed most of the remaining issues. There should be a new nightly and there is a new GApps 10.2 to flash today.
