Would a different PRL benefit me any?

Digiblur has a great PRL that gives you ability to get 3G EVDO roaming when off the Sprint network (instead of just 1x) and also will allow you to access any open 800MHz networks.  It's great.

No idea to be honest.  I've never checked nor have I have seen the store check it.

Also no need to get a special PRL for 800SMR in your area anymore unless of course you want 3G roaming.

I was thinking about why/if I would even need it. I rarely go into roaming anyway...

 

And a quick question that I forgot to ask about your ROM...when I installed it said "no MD5 file found". Why? And dont say, "because it's not there". :P

Well then my answer is no comment.  

 

All an MD5 is a hash of the file.  If for some reason part of the zip gets corrupted on your internets or the download is incomplete the hash will be totally different.  When I upload the file to Androidfilehost it makes an MD5 hash, I always re-download the file and compare it to my original file's MD5 hash to make sure the upload went up correctly.  Unfortunately some devs skip this test.

 

And next time there will be two files to download and it won't say MD5 file not found.  I'll include one so TWRP will verify the ZIP automatically.  Thanks for making me google this!

The SXTP Developers group posted on twitter that they have a leak of 4.2.2 for the L900

 

I wonder if that will be pushed quickly or will it be held back until they fix the baseband.  I'm sure the baseband 800SMR fix is high priority as that affects roaming dollars.

I'm wondering what the baseband issue is actually is, I've been using your PRL and had no issues on SMR for voice and text.

Same here as I didn't have any issues when I was in 800smr areas either. But I did see someone in the Shentel market saying they had issues.

 

Doesn't bother me at this point though as I will just overwrite the 2xxx. No 800smr cdma in my area anyways. Maybe next month or so I will get to test it out. Work in this market has slowed dramatically in the past few weeks. Not sure if the market launch has anything to do with it or just backhaul availability.

I expect to see a ton of CDMA SMR lighting up in West Michigan as we have terrible towers spacing from iPCS, kinda like ya'll deal with in NOLA.

NOLA has pretty decent spacing and even some sites covering odd places where no one lives nor goes.  It wasn't an affiliate area.  That type of network quickly changes though when you go to Baton Rouge.  It's a shame that Sprint didn't hold the affiliates to a better standard, as it really has cost them revenue in the end.

 

Keeping an eye on the 800SMR here as well.  Haven't seen a peep of it which is kind of odd to be honest but at least the 800 RRUs are up and flying.  I hope they get them drive tested, accepted and online pretty soon.

A few of you look familiar in this forum. I live in Columbus Ohio and we had our first lte tower go live last week. Few note II specific questions. 1) do you have a good root that won't bring me down to stock? I love touch whiz but ehrmmmm really like wifi hotspots too :) 2) when will the note start supporting 800mhz 1x adv?

 

Thx!

Has anyone had any issues with "media server" draining your battery? The only fix that I can come up with when I notice a rapid drain is to reboot. Haven't been able to find anything else that will help with this issue.

do you have a ton of large size of video or movies?

 

the media server scanner which populates the audio/video/picture library might be getting stuck on a large and/or corrupted video.

      Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

      Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.

      Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.

      Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
