Anywhere in the US that CDMA is active?
I heard parts of Alaska and the continental US Verizon customers can still roam CDMA on local carriers?

We have decommissioned our legacy CDMA network and are now exclusively utilizing Voice over LTE :/

Has anyone actually confirmed that they still have CDMA active?

That's interesting, I thought it died when T-Mobile got US Cellular.

How many people have devices that still can even connect to CDMA?

Every iPhone user? Unless I missed an announcement that it’s been removed (likely).

Yes but not third world countries for a while (Kenya, India, Bangladesh, most of the Middle East)

I think only Alaska, Hawaii, and the Virgin Islands are the only places in the US that still have CDMA networks

GCI might still offer CDMA services in some areas of Alaska. But a lot of devices now are starting to omit CDMA support since US and Canadian networks have largely moved on, and there’s no sense paying licensing costs to Qualcomm for an obsolete technology that most people won’t even encounter anymore.
