Finally got Lollipop today! Really posses me off that it was more than 3 months after the M8, especially since it is the same phone inside.

 

So far I'm loving it, but testing notifications are weird. using stock messenger app. I thought the text would appear at the top of the screen, but it doesn't. Just the icon in the status bar. Setting I can change somewhere?

I haven't tried it on a sense rom yet, but if it's like standard lollipop you can have it show a pop up type notification at the top of the screen briefly but it won't scroll through the notification bar like kit kat.

Looks like a good device, but today's gadget spam has gotten out of control. Thanks Samsung.

That is a Sprint video on YouTube featuring the E8. So yes, it is coming to the states.       Sent from my LG G3 using Tapatalk

It's pretty much the same as the M8, only plastic and has a higher Mp camera. Only thing I can think of as far as the adoption of this phone is that everyone had already( who wants htc phones) has bou

Yeah, I don't think the Sense messaging app has been updated for that yet ... Guess I'll have to wait for Sense 7 for that [emoji17]

 

In the meantime, I downloaded the Google app "Messenger" and it's great! It obviously has full lollipop functionality, and I can respond to texts without even having to unlock! So awesome.

I've been using Hangouts for SMS for a while on every device I've had. At first I didn't care much for it, but it's grown on me. The integration with Google Voice was just a plus.

This isn't Hangouts though ... I do like Hangouts, but even Hangouts doesn't let you reply from the notification.

 

If I integrate my GV with Hangouts, can I send texts from my computer using the Hangouts app for Chrome?

I reply to SMS through Hangouts from the lock screen notifications all the time, I'm not sure why it won't let you. Yes you would be able to send/receive sms from any computer using Chrome with the Hangouts extension installed. You can even make or receive calls if you have a headset for your computer.

As opposed to with Messenger:

I see what you're saying, you're right it doesn't let me reply that way. I have to click on the notification to open Hangouts and send through the app. That is a pretty nice feature.

Yup! Works when it pops up when you are doing something else also! Basically like Facebook Messenger, only easier and less annoying.

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.

      Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
