looking for 4 g in st george

Now that both my wife and I have smart phones it sure would be nice to have 4g service. What's the hold up? I understand the infrastructure is in place just not turned on. T mobile sales would go thru the roof. Verizon has gotten to darn expensive. Turn on the service. The service is good but could be perfect.

Generally very good reception in all of St. George with a couple of "dead" spots: Tonaquint Dr. between Bloomington and Southgate, and the pass on 1-15 between Southgate and Bloomington. We've learned not to make calls there. Worst problem is the SLOW network. All the hype about 3G / 4G phones is useless in St. George because the best we have is Edge. When will we ever get network speeds that even justify smartphones?

EDGE. Enough said. Need 3G (since they've signed the contracts, have the radios up, and WON'T TURN THE THINGS ON). Bastards.

constant disconnect in my townhome / condo, but if I go up on the street I get at least 3 bars. Even if I'm upstairs I only get 2 bars at best. Spring cannot do anything to help me out with this unfortunate situation. Wish I knew how to get a better signal, I'm searching for a fix. Alltell was great -- the then takover / buyout from AT&T was horrible. But now it's horrible again.

Purchasing a house and just discovered we don't get our calls, voicemails, texts or any evidence of missed calls until we go outside. How are we supposed to function in this modern society without cell service? We haven't had a landline for years. I am sick.

Wouldn't even work. I had to use a different phone just to call AT&T to switch back to my way old Nokia phone and it did pick up two bars, but you could barely use it, and would pray that your call wouldn't be dropped.

Haven't had any problems with service in St. George or the surrounding areas toward Hurricane. In driving into Arizona on I-15, I kept service with AT&T while my uncle who has Verizon lost service for most of the time. Love AT&T!

T-mobile coverage is great, except in my own home in the Legacy, where it comes and goes. I bought an AT&T go phone, which does better in my subdivision, however not as well in other areas.

I get good reception all around this area but there is a pocket in Emerald Springs where we live that has poor reception.

NO RECEPTION whatsoever no matter how many bars you have, its weird. Alot of things here are strange, especially when its electrical!

I have not dropped a call in this area...

I just spotted a New Cingular Tower out by the new ball park and The intermediate school off of Rachel drive. Oddly enough I was getting a -40 near this tower on my KX-16 and I have Alltel. The equipment has the Cingular logo on it. Why would I get good service from a GSM tower when I have CDMA?

What's up here? I couldn't get ANY reception at friends house (about 2 miles west / southwest of Sunset and Bluff intersection), het now that I am driving southbound towards the freeway heading back towards the Virgin River gorge area, I get a strong signal. Isn't Cingular supposed to be the "biggie" company? Had GREAT reception in Vegas and Mesquite, NV, but NOTHING here on the west side of St. George. Wouldn't you think that adding a cell tower to this fast-growing area would have occurred to somebody by now????

I get wonderful coverage throughout my area with Alltel. Recently they acquired CellOne here in the lower half of Utah. So I ported my number from Sprint to Alltel. Running both phones around town I get fair coverage with Sprint, but up on Turtle Rd.(Red Hill / Snow Canyon Parkway) my Sprint fades away but my Alltel still stays strong mostly due to a tower right above the Stadium 8 theatres. By the way the Sprint towers are located right along the I-15 corridor and on Utah Hill so the Black Hill casts a coverage shadow up on where Sunset Blvd.and Bluff intersect.

Area in and around Snow Canyon High School, the Santa Clara Branch of the Washington County Library north to Entrada Golf Course is excellent. Test mode of phone typically gives signal strength readings of -75 to -77 at all times. Excellent call quality.

Parts of Sunset have great coverage but as you get up close to the Stadium 8 Theatres your phone service drops out a lot. They have placed their towers in a poor location up there and so if you live in Green Valley expect a lot of dropped calls from Sprint during the day especially as you get further down Valley View Drive. Service will vary from two to three bars to none. Then it will jump back in again.

I have had several different phones over the past few years and for some reason this little Kyocera phone dropped less calls than my Sanyo 5150 and Sanyo 8100 phones combined.

no reception west of the airport and in santa clara

My reception has been fantastic with a few exceptions. If you go near or inside the Smith's supermarket building, you will have little to NO service. You also start to lose service as you head out towards Gunlock. Everywhere else, I haven't had any problems whatsoever.
