Does the Optimus G support HD Voice? If not, where is a comprehensive list of the handsets that support this feature?

and ones that support 800 (I assume only 1x mode, none support lte correct?)

 

[sorry to have semi-hijacked this thread]

Ah, I hated the kernel with his wee, beady eyes and that smug look on his face...

And now we know the origin of Robert's fortnightly fried chicken craving...

 

:P

I've been running nexOGen for a week now. It's the best custom rom I've tried so far. It is stock based so it keeps the engineering screens and debug menus. Stock camera app and gps works great.

Robert, you promised to bring your bagpipes and perform this at the S4GRU Golf Classic in Tahoe next month, right?

Found an Optimus G on Craigslist for $100 and I am looking for a quick phone to test LTE in the area, as I am currently on an iPhone4S.

 

Is $100 a good deal on this phone? How well does it pick up LTE signal?

 

Thanks!

Sounds like a very good deal, assuming the ESN is clean. On Swappa they seem to be going for $160-200 in very good shape. All reports suggest it's an LTE champ and the CPU is a beast.

 

I'm debating getting one now, or holding out to use my upgrade in January for the G2 or whatever ends up being the best triband performer then.

If its in good condition and has a clean ESN, that's a steal.

If anyone is interested, I have a perfect condition LG Optimus G that I would be willing to sell.  It was new in a sealed box when I bought it three weeks ago.  I used it for a week for testing purposes, and now it is back in the box.  It also has root level access.

I paid $265 when it was new in box.  After just a week of use, I would not mind getting $200 out of it.

Wait Wait Wait... Is this the first step on transforming S4GRU into a marketplace to sell used phones?  :P

I would prefer not -- unless we decide to dedicate a sub forum or thread to that end. But I think staff get a little bit of leeway, especially if we shell out for some devices solely for testing purposes.

Oh, I know. But a device "swap meet" might not be a bad idea. It would just need to have its own area in The Forums, probably limited to sponsors.

A swap meet wouldn't be a bad idea. But I would prefer S4GRU to stay away from selling and buying phones (shipping them), as it can create a lot of havoc, attract scammers, etc. I say leave it all at howardforums, swappa, and others. Staff of course should be free to sell whatever they want of course.

This could be great, I have several handsets I need to unload. I was going through boxes today preparing to move and came across this vintage Motorola analog handset.

    • Unable to confirm if it's really off but I noticed this morning that I'm no longer connecting to Band 41 on my home site. Switching my phone to LTE-only pretty much always put me on Band 41 since it was the least used band on T-Mobile's network. Now I'm only able to connect to Band 2/66. Not complaining because it means speeds are faster on LTE and maybe 150MHz n41 is around the corner.

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
