Full integration of alltel towers into verizons network

I don't have a definite answer but according to this thread: HowardForums they are working on it market by market and it won't be complete until 2011.

That being said...have you tried updating your PRL (dial *228 and select option 2.) If you aren't familiar with the PRL it is basically the list of towers on your phone so it knows which one to use.

 

So will the 3g network mean more coverage?? There is a particular spot when i go camping in Spangler Hill OHV area (ridgecrest, Ca.) that verizon gets nothing at all but AT& T gets full service.

A few AT&T folks were facebooking from their beds while i got nothing at all until 20 miles away at the trona pinnacles.

 

It's not likely to help you in that situation. If there were an Alltel tower in that area your phone would still have used it. The only spots it will help is in locations where your phone tries to hold onto a 1 bar Verizon signal when there is a 5 bar Alltel tower available. Once they are integrated your phone would use what was originally the Alltel tower.
