Just returned from a long weekend in west Texas around the Alpine/Marfa/Fort Davis area. I was surprised that my SignalCheck app showed I was connected with Verizon or AT&T towers while I was in that area (in or near the towns... there's no coverage on the highways between towns) even while the phone display just showed that I was on the "Fi Network". Does anyone know if Google itself has made deals with these carriers? Or do Sprint and T-Mobile have deals with them and Fi piggy-backs off these deals?
Either way, this was very encouraging -- I generally had better and more reliable coverage with Fi than my friends who had Sprint phones.
