optimummind Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 You'll need to ask for the BYOD card probably. Only like 2 popular mid range devices uses it so it's a pretty rare card to have around. Just make sure they get the card with such specified info. I stopped by a corporate Sprint store & showed the associate your table & he sold me this card.The BYOD SIM Kit number on the package, which is on the bar code, shows a matching number: 760492036429. It also says BYODSKVer3.0UPC on the card says: 854798005170Part #: SIMOLW506TQOn the SIM card & underneath the ICCID, it says: SOI0002a.The tech said it'll work with the S9/S9+. Is this true, you think?Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bretton88 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Does the unlocked version of the S9 (S9+) have the same network perks as the Sprint version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueAngel Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 My phone is in Philly now lol, too bad I'll be at work when it's delivered. Nice gift to come home to though, and rf comparisons will be done before I switch over. Hoping XPUE actually works on this one doesn't make a difference on this 8+.

Mine suppose to be delivered tomorrow, I'll post my observations on RF and HPUE tomorrow. My house sits around three Sprint cell sites, two of them running 2500MHz. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themuffinman Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 There is an update right out of the box, also msl is still the same at 000000. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueAngel Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) Phone in hand, uninstalling all the bloat and updating apps etc so far I can notice a decent difference in performance compared to the 8+. Yes MSL is still 000000, unfortunately the default priority list is B25, 26 and then 41 so I had to change that to what it's supposed to be 41, 25 and then 26... Sprint loves to mess this up every time with a new Samsung device. Other than the bloat I like it.

From my limited testing it's about the same on B25 at my house, rarely get B26 or B41 at home lol so I wasnt able to test those. But my S8+ was sitting at 91dBm and my S9+ was sitting at 91dBm after I activated it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueAngel Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 This thing feels a lot faster than the s8 after using it for a few hours, wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best band for the phone to scan for is B25. It is the most likely LTE band to be available across the country. B41 or B26 is not guaranteed everywhere. Once you are connected to LTE, the network will dictate what LTE band you are on based on signal strength and availability. If B41 is available, you will be pushed to that relatively quickly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
