I had quite a few issues with the 6. Have not had a single issue with the 6s. All of the quality control issues that existed in the 6 have definitely been resolved with the 6s. No more front facing issues. Cell reception issues have been resolved. The only thing I've noticed in the past few weeks is that my touch ID has slowed down..or at least it seems to have. I probably just have gotten used to it and now I expect it to be faster.

If I can't get a "proper" 6, one that has zero defects, then I'm gonna start considering upgrading, only thing is I promised myself I would wait until the iPhone 7 (that'll probably be a big disaster like the 6 with my luck), which is why I got apple care + and sure enough its coming in handy.

 

I'm considering a switch to a TOL Android if this doesn't get worked out.

All of the defaults that were in the 6 probably came because it was a whole new design it's to be expected. Apple probably didn't refine all the kinks with the 6 they did it with the 6s and 6s Plus. But I've never heard of anyone getting that many iPhone replacements. I've had my same iPhone 6 for a whole year now. I decided I'm gonna wait for the 7 simply because it doesn't make sense to get a 6S Plus right now and then 9 months later the new one will be out.

I've noticed my Touch ID has become a bit more "touchy" the past couple weeks as well. However, it's still light years better than my 6 or 5s, so I really can't complain. I really have zero complaints about my 6s. (I just jinxed it...)

I saw that. I still use Crapatalk on my iPad. SF and Roboto are really similar. I was surprised but it is a pretty small difference.

As long as you are in a carrier aggregation enabled area you should be good to go.

It's ok. I have moments like that where I think I see 6s and it's actually 6.

People who ask questions or seek advice but do not update or state their Phones/Devices deserve to get slapped.

So with the PRL update and new carrier profile when updating to iOS 9.1, did anyone notice any changes to signal or band switching?

 

I know it probably hasn't been long enough...the past few days I've been having some complete drops of coverage so hopefully this resolves it.

As you said, there hasn't been enough time yet to tell, but I'll be sure to pay attention to it over the next few days.

I feel like it broke my phone again. I can't keep a connection. Also the apple watch update broke the watch as well.

Yeh. Not overly satisfied with the carrier update. Finding myself actually doing the toggle airplane mode a lot. And my data is bogging.

Not mine. I am down almost 40% of what I was getting before.

      PRLs do not affect LTE connectivity — they are only for CDMA. What you are observing must be a coincidence. As Sprint and Open Mobile are still integrating their networks, Band 13 will probably come and go quite a few more times before you’ll be able to properly connect to it.  It’s hard to say. Although I may be wrong, I think that if the merger does goes through (which it may or may not), it will go through everywhere.

      Network Vision/LTE - Puerto Rico/Virgin Islands Market

      By Skypr · Posted

      Update: Did a PRL update (55069) and sightings of B13 using Signal Check Pro are less frequent know in my area. Before this latest PRL, I was able to see between 2-3 B13 signals everyday for the entire time that I had the app open but not anymore. There is a B13 in my area at -98 dBm that's constantly disappearing from Signal Check Pro. As for roaming charges when I was using Open Mobile, there are none and the roaming data allotment stills at zero. Two question for thought... If Sprint and T-Mobile merge, what could be the implications for PRWireless in Puerto Rico (Joint company between Sprint and Open Mobile)? Would the DOJ step in to prevent a 3 carrier merge in PR? Or would it go thru making a super telecom company in PR? Or maybe the DOJ allows the merge in the USA but not in PR... Lastly, could the rollout of Sprint VoLTE be affected in PR do to Open Mobile's equipment?
