Does LG have the same issue as Samsung in regards to LTE signal strength not showing the appropriate signal bars? Even in this stock image, it looks like LTE is only showing 1 bar. doh.gif

 

You only see one bar?  I see full bars.

The image is pretty low resolution, so I guess it could be debated. There appears to be more white near the end of the signal icon though. Enhance->zoom->sharpen. Also, if it was showing full signal bars you'd expect the signal icon to match the white/brightness of the battery icon spot on.

The other bars would be dark grey if  there was only one bar. And no, LG does not have an issue showing "bars." The representation is the same as it is on any other Sprint device. Roughly <-115 0 bars, -110 1 bar, -100 for 2, -95 for 3, -90 for 4, >-85 full bars.

I still see full bars with some mysterious white spot at the end that appears to be slightly brighter than the rest.

Only 1GB RAM (Apple would be proud though :) ?  720P?  Yikes.

 

We proudly present to you the Samsung Galaxy Note 1.5!

 

It's a budget phone for those that don't need the capabilities of the flagships and don't have the means / want to pay for a flagship.

But the size is of a phablet and includes a pen.  It is really an odd device.

 

I could understand a ~ 5" phone with middle of the road specs with no pen.

 

Plus the T-Mobile version has 2GB of RAM.

Age old statement of you get what you paid for applies here.

    • My s24 Ultras auto updated to April 1 security patch over night. Not on wi-fi.  Play system remains at March 1. No notice that update occurred on screen.
    • Got the latest update. On my S24 ultra the NR-ARFCN display remains constant (which is inaccurate according to diags) while n41 and 38 toggle back and forth.  I updated then rebooted before testing. Two sims active. My security patch level updated automatically to April 1 before this update. Diags sent while n38 was displaying.
    • Was able to install the March 1 Android security patch. Seems slightly more accurate with 5g ca band id, but can not swear by it. Updated google play system update through the software information screen to March 1. *#73# still works. Froze updates waiting on SCP update beta to fix n41 showing as n38.
    • Just installed it. Thanks for the info.  71 mb mar 1st date.
    • There's a permit for a new 47 story building at 205 Montague St in Downtown Brooklyn. The problem is that  T-Mobile eNB 48352 is on the building next door and this new building will block two out of 3 sectors of the site. For reference, the new building will be roughly as tall as 16 Court St which is right across the street. This site is the primary site covering Cadman Plaza so I wonder what the plan is. Will they just try to change sector placement, move to a different building, or will this just speed up the conversion of the Sprint site at 25 Monroe Place?
