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.

Okay I'm hearing and seeing commercials about Sprints LTE Plus. Is there something I need too do with my iPhone 6 to take advantage of this new service ?

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

iPhone 6 is not Carrier Aggregation capable on Sprint.

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.

Anyone know as to why my HD calling has stopped working on my iPhone 6 and 6s?

      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.

      T-Mobile LTE & Network Discussion V2

      By Dkoellerwx · Posted

      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.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By dkyeager · Posted

      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.
