Something fishy is happening. No acceptances in a long time.

I heard a rumor that Sprint heard a rumor that the United States was dumping New Mexico back to Mexico. Since Sprint only provides service in country, they will no longer have a presence in New Mexico.

That wouldn't really be possible because if they give up New Mexico then they would have to give up California, Arizon, and Colorado, because of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. Edited February 7, 2014 by Nm45chavez

Nope, just New Mexico. I read it on the internet so it has to be true.

If it does happen at least mexico would probably updated our state network to fiber. Mexico is the fastest country to update their broadband Internet to fiber.

I heard that on the Internet too. And also the hot State Farm chick. I wonder if they ever found her body after her date with the alleged French super model?

I saw this while I bought my new hover car, but unfortunately mercedes revealed the new teleporter so that was a waste of money.

 

(But I wasn't joking about mexico and their fiber network.)

Nice to see the round of 800 updates.

These are the days that I miss having an Android. I would put that Premier PRL and try that 800 (if active).

I've been using the regular sponsor prl which prioritizes scanning for smr. The few times I've been connected I've been unable to place a call.

It's a bit trickier than other phones to change the prl on the N5.  Check the xda nexus 5 forums to really learn a lot about how to use the phone.  IIRC there is a a computer program that can help with changing the prl.

Ever have an experience changing the PRL on a Galaxy S4?  I've tried with the xshortcut app and get nothing but "The Samsung DM service has stopped" error.

I really considered the iPhone 5 before I got the note 2. I just couldn't give up my burning desire to always tinker with my phone and make it exactly how I wanted it. Plus I was able to sell my note and cover the cost of my nexus 5.

I'm heading to the Sunport tonight where a tower is near, I'm going to see if I can get any of that 800 goodness.

You can't get it on the GN2 without a custom PRL.

So does that mean I will never see 800 unless I customize my prl. Or will it work later down the road once all goes live?

Right now the GN2 has a CDMA 800 problem.  You can't do anything at the moment to use CDMA 800 on a GN2.  If you change the PRL to one that does 800, you will at least be able to connect to CDMA 800.  But you will not be able to use it on the Note 2.

No, you just don't ever get it as first priority, assuming Sprint doesn't change the prl's. Right now if you have an android phone your phone will scan for regular voice and if it doesn't find it, it will then scan for smr 800 voice. If it connects to smr it will keep using that signal until you drop from that tower. If using an iPhone, it will scan for smr secondary like Android, but if it connects to smr it will only keep you on 800 until it finds a usable 1900 signal. So you will still pick up smr, but only in fringe coverage areas, which should be ok for most.
