Under Fixes/Enhancements --- Upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich ..... ummm?? ok?

 

I think that the (admittedly hopeful) assumption is that it's a typo. I lend a little credence to this assumption due to the fact that there's an Android full of jelly beans poking out behind the EVO and that there was another screencap which actually said "Jelly Bean."

 

I'm also hoping that there is a hidden message here: the Android's organs seem to be made of jelly beans, so the fact that they're all over the place means that it's "spilling its guts."

My guess is that whoever put together the info sheet copy & pasted the ICS specs from another device's update page, instead of copying the JB specs from the S3 page, since the Evo shipped with ICS.

I would go with the S3 over the EVO even if the fix for the LTE comes out. The S3 just does a better job on holding and pulling data, even EVDO where the EVO fails on the Sprint signal.

Started checking for a firmware update a bit ago, and it was telling me there were no updates available. About 15 minutes ago I can no longer check for any updates as I get an error 1233,

 

Who knows - maybe they're prepping for the new update....

Good catch! I had just checked awhile ago and got no update available. Now I'm getting the same 1233 error.

 

or maybe too many people querying the server? :-)

I'm getting no update available...

 

I also got the "no update available" a time or two, then it went back to 1233s. Could just be that we peeps are overloading their network checking for updates =p

They are only letting 25,000 people per day (for the first 4 days), get the update so... if you get "no update" that means they have meet their threshhold.

FROM ANDROIDCENTRAL FORUMS...:

 

 

I just got off the phone with sprint. I didn't mention reading anything about an update but I did ask her if she knew if there were any updates coming out for my phone since I've been having a few issues with it. She checked in her system and she confirm everything that's on the picture in this thread. She said we would be getting and update to fix WiFi issues and ringtone issues etc and that we would be upgraded to ice cream sandwich smh lol which I am assuming it was a typo. She said the update would start today until the 27th. Now like I said I didn't mention to her anything about what I read in this forum which leads me to believe we should be getting an update today.

 

??.. Everybody seems anxious about the update.... More confirmation that something is coming today???

    • A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.
    • Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.
    • Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.
    • Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.    
    • What is the cheapest way to try Dish's wireless network?  Over the past year I've seen them add their equipment to just about every cell site here, I'm assuming just go through Boost's website?  What phones are Dish native?
