YAY got an email earlier today 19th November saying my N6 has shipped from kentucky. ETA end of day Friday 21st November. And you all were right the price drop did happen. Glad I waited it out and ordered today 19th November. Cant Wait!

You ordered from Sprint site? I went ahead and ordered today, a couple of hours ago. I hope to know more tomorrow.

Yes I did.  I ordered it at about 4 Eastern time on the 19th.  And got an email at 914 eastern time on the 19th saying it had been shipped, and it just left Kentucky a few hours ago.  So Hopefully UPS is early on the delivery.  It says delivery on the 21st, but if it shows up to the store I may just pick it up at the UPS store instead of waiting for delivery.  Thats a perfect world though.

 

Anyone know if this is going to require a signature upon delivery or if they will just leave it in mailbox/on front porch?  I would think signature due to the price, but who knows.

Every android phone I have owned has had a notification LED. My current one (Nexus 5) even changes color based on what notifications I have. We've also had actionable notifications for awhile.

I meant the camera flash (designed for people that are hard of hearing). My m8 received the option with their last update, but it does absolutely nothing. As a trucker with my phone on a windshield mount all day, I need to see what the notification is every time I receive one. My G2, nexus 5, and m8 have never done that for me. If I get a text, I don't want to just see an envelope icon after unlocking the phone which is dangerous while driving.

Mine was delivered around 3pm today. No signature required. UPS just left it on my front door. Just got home and hoping to play with it for a few minutes before bed.

Got my n6 activated. Awesome phone so far. One issue I found so far is with LTE engineering screens, its not there. My n5 running 5.0 had it? Kinda odd.

Not accessible via dialer codes?

nobody reporting radio/signal quality on the n6?  better/worse than n5 in same locations?

 

That's what I'm waiting for.  Motorola tends to do pretty good with RF, so I am hoping it is better, but I'm sure we will find out soon enough.

so far I'm seeing big speed gains over my 5 in the same locations. Like 22 Mbps were I was getting 7 before.

What about signal differences from the same site and serving cell via Signalcheck?

Looks like we need a user thread now.

 

You don't have to go to the new users thread, but you can't stay here.  Closing time.

    • 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.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
    • Drove out into the country today.  Dish stuck to my phone like glue. At least -120 rsrp. Likely only good for phone calls (should have tested.) It then switched to T-Mobile. Getting back on Dish was another issue. I am used to dragging out coverage so I expected a few miles, but had to drive at least 10 miles towards a Dish site. Airplane mode, which worked for Sprint, did nothing. Rebooting did nothing. Finally got it to change over about 2 miles from the site by manually setting the carrier to Dish then it had great reception. Sprint used to have a 15 minute timeout but I did not have the patience today.  Previously I did a speed test on Dish out in the country at the edge of Dish coverage. My speeds were 2g variety. Dish has really overclocked some of these sites. Seen rssp readings in the 50s. Would have called them boomer sites with Sprint but much  more common with Dish.
