LG has added NFC to it's Optimus LTE and added "tag" to the phone name. This could be to satisfy Sprint's desire to have all LTE phones also have NFC capability. It also could be because it is a neat feature. The Optimus LTE Tag will allow the user to set up special stickers that will change the phone's settings to your preset for that "tag". You can have one at your desk that turns the phone to silent, another in your car that sets the phone to silence text message notifications or read you the texts, another on your nightstand that silences everything but alarms.

 

The phone's specs are:

o Chipset: 1.2GHz Dure-Core processor

o Display: 4.3-inch (800 x 480) IPS

o Memory: 16GB eMMC

o Camera: 5.0MP with AF-LED Flash (Rear) & 1.3MP (Front)

o OS: Android 2.3 Gingerbread

o Battery: 1,700mAh

o Others: LG Tag+, MHL(Mobile High Definition Link), DLNA(Digital Living Network Alliance)

 

The only thing that sticks out to me is the screen resolution. The 800x400 resolution is a far cry from the LG Spectrum, it's too bad they didn't use the same screen from that. The rest of the specs are not mind blowing, but it looks like the typical midrange LG phone that works for most Android users like the Optimus S.

Sounds like a decent mid grade device. And with NFC, its all that much better. Would be a great fit in the Sprint line up.

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Bloosurf is petitioning to deny T-Mobile's request for an STA specifically in their service area. https://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsEntry/attachments/attachmentViewRD.jsp;ATTACHMENTS=Ghl9knTSFp8J4nVm1P9qL4541XR1gy58whH7Yyz0MwGs037gQrNV!-2042069078!-79842837?applType=search&fileKey=1297203795&attachmentKey=21718533&attachmentInd=applAttach Short read but pretty much they're saying that T-Mobile's operations in the BRS/EBS band has been interfering with Bloosurf's LTE-based WISP network and that this has caused them harm (lose customers, etc.) They claim that allowing T-Mobile access to all of the spectrum they bought in or near Bloosurf's service area would cause even more interference. To be fair they aren't wrong. They mention that in 2021 the FCC investigated and determined that T-Mobile was operating outside of its licensed spectrum band there. However, I get the sense that Bloosurf is just trying to stop a competitor from operating in their service area. Typically carriers work this kind of stuff out among each other. Here in NYC, 3/4ths of Brooklyn has 140MHz of n41 deployed and the southern 1/4th of it has 80MHz deployed thanks to an incumbent that leases the spectrum from the archdiocese. In spite of that there are no complaints of interference from NextWave in such a dense environment. Seems to me like Bloosurf just doesn't want to coordinate with T-Mobile and would rather complain to delay the deployment of spectrum for as long as possible. EDIT: It's not just their service area, it's a larger area surrounding their service area as well. Something's fishy about this request.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Bit too early to tell imo. It's good news if Dish can stop the hemorrhaging. Q3/Q4 2022 they were able to stop the hemorrhaging. Their previous 6 quarters they lost between 160k and 350k subs each. Their next report will be interesting to see how they were impacted subscriber wise due to the hack.

      I really wish this wasn't still so shrouded in mystery.  I see these phones available new on eBay (Boost locked, but again, I don't care) for $99, and would love to buy one of those and activate a Rainbow SIM on the $100/year plan, and I can't find a good answer on whether or not that is something that can be done, even if I drove down to Richmond to try to do it.  Don't really want to be out the $100 if they won't let me do it. - Trip
