You guys able to see any tracking information yet with your tracking numbers? Both mine have UPS numbers but they're not active yet in the UPS system.

 

Think they'll get here tomorrow??? Going to take off work for new phone day!! (and finish up some landscaping work)

My labels just went live. Scheduled delivery on 4/19 for both! 

Same here too! 

 

Does anyone know if I can activate a phone on another line without first getting it activated it on the line I got it under?

I saw a possible issue when I went to activate the phone. 10GB tethering option was not there and HD streaming was unchecked. I talked to chat to make sure it stays. Not sure what will happen to the 10 GB tethering if you don't call. I just saw HD streaming unchecked and thought I would call about it. I was not given an answer they did the activation and it is still in my plan for now.

Fast chargers work through the micro to C adapters with any QC2.0 charger wall wart! (and with USB to C cords)

 

But, my choetech fast charging pads don't work. I've reached out to the company to hopefully get a resolution but I'm mega disappointed. I've got 6 of those littered throughout my life.

 

However, my Seneo fast wireless charger does work!

 

Edit: My QC2.0 car Chargers do NOT fast charge either. Womp, Womp. Mixed bag here, frustrating indeed.

I had zero issues getting mines activated online.

 

i just ordered this phone so I haven't received it yet but from my experience with first my HTC One M8 and then my Nexus 6, online activation has never been a problem.

So working through the phone and all it's quirks. I've found that the face unlock (you can have them all active and registered meaning face, fingerprint, iris) is the best way around having to use that rear fingerprint sensor.  I know it's not as secure, but day to day usage is going to be the quickest.  It's taking a lot of work to get over not having that front finger print sensor like the Note5.  Otherwise loving the phone.

    • 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.
