Tracfone AT&T sims went from QCI 8 to 9 as well a couple years ago. I'm pretty neutral towards AT&T's turbo feature here, the only bad taste left was for those who had unadvertised QCI 7 a couple months ago moved down to 8. In my eyes it would have been a lot better for AT&T to include turbo in those Premium/Elite plans for free to keep them at QCI 7, while also introducing this turbo add on option for any other plans or devices. As it stands now only a handful of plans can add it, and only if you're using a device on a random list of devices AT&T considers to be 5G smartphones.

The manual network selection sounds like it isn't always scanning NR, hence Dish not showing up. Your easiest way to force Dish is going to be forcing the phone into NR-only mode (*#*#4636#*#* menu?), since rainbow sims don't support SA on T-Mobile.

This is how I saw it. No need to dedicate all the 2.5 to N41, when the site only has 1gbps backhaul. 100MHz N41 will already be fully saturated. Keeping b41 active allows LTE devices have a good experience in the meantime until backhaul is improved.

FYI, RU fieldtest is a free alternative to NSG for band locking, I sent you a PM with a telegram link. Needs root but can do those NR bands.

I just don't think Dish has money to buy more customers to spend more money on roaming, and then eventually build out additional coverage or cancel those customers afterwards years down the line for not being in native Dish coverage.

Dish may not want the customers if a lot of them are outside of the areas they plan to provide native coverage. Or they'd have to plan to overlay USCC coverage with their own, but they would also need additional spectrum to do so as they are missing 600 etc licenses in many USCC areas.

3 to 4 I after migration I think before you get the SMS. Just based off reports I've been seeing.

You'll be notified eventually. They seem to have some minimum amount of time after migration before they'll kick you off credit card autopay, perhaps to try and prevent you from associating the migration with the autopay change.

No former Sprint accounts have had the promotion applied yet. They have to program something special for those accounts. Line should still be free though whenever they implement the solution. https://www.reddit.com/r/Sprint/comments/14n6xyc/2023_byod_p1_update_for_individual_line_magenta/

Internal verbage was changed last month to this: "We are all eager to Move to T-Mobile and we are diligently working on the process of moving all Sprint customers. We anticipate your account moving within the next 3-6 months.” Which puts the end of the Sprint billing system around October.

There are still a significant amount of customers on the Sprint billing system, complete migration has been pushed back to Q3. Sprint Max comes with unlimited priority data on device, the CSR was misinformed.

You can find n30 in Dallas, I saw it driving through there in November. att n30 sa sib.txt

I think the main issue is the lack of demand for it. Barely any focus is being put on it since VoLTE accomplishes the job, not many SA NR networks exist today, and there aren't any notable benefits of VoNR compared to VoLTE. Dish is a rare example of a carrier who desperately needs it due to their NR-only deployment, but the vast majority of carriers globally are content with VoLTE.
