Hey could you put the VZW-SpectrumCo-Cox transaction into laymen's terms for me? I did a search but it all seems over my head. I will not disagree that Verizon seems to be not only bullies but "unethical asshats". That is one of the reasons I had never switched to them before. I don't really like doing business with companies like them but out of what is available they were the best choice for me at this time.

 

Also the Razr maxx hd did help in my final decision. What other phone has a battery as good as this? :)

How dare you?! Pure Android loads applications fully 0.08 seconds faster, and that makes all the difference in the world to a phone geek...er, I mean..."power user."     AJ

Apparently, a patch is coming (according to a few posts). I wish samsung would just dump their amoled screens or at least give people a choice at this point.   AMOLED was great 2-3 years ago but no

The S3 and the Evo lte are both great phones in my opinion. I personally prefer the Evo. I haven't experienced any of the issues people are having with the jb update, my phone runs great! Most of my f

On monday I spent a few hours hanging out in Miami(4hr layover for my next flight) with two friends of mines and they both have gs3's, we were no more than maybe 5 minutes from the airport having lunch when I noticed that my gnex was connected to 4g. So I then looked at my evo but unfortunately it was still on 3g, I ask to see my friends phones and both were also on 3g. I did the toggle dance on both gs3's and my evo and none of them would connect to lte but my gnex stayed connected just fine.

I just made the switch from the original EVO 4g to the Galaxy S3. I have to say I'm extremely impressed. Having had the Hero also, I was very accustomed to the Sense way of life. Touch Wiz has its quirks but overall, I'm enjoying my experience.

 

There are still little things that bug me like the inability to hold the Volume Up/Down key with the screen off to move the next/previous song or that the stock player doesn't have a lock screen widget. These issues however can be resolved obviously via other players and/or rooting.

 

In terms of reception, I have noticed that my 3g drops out while in my office fairly regularly if I'm messing on the phone. I didn't seem to have this problem with the EVO.

 

I was tempted to switch carriers but I have hope that 4G LTE will be fully rolled out in the LA area soon. I'm in the San Fernando Valley and have already experienced it in the Studio City / Burbank area just off the 134.

      I really apreciate no longer seeing n38 for T-Mobile. My s24 Ultra is reporting that Signalcheck Pro is crashing frequently.  It has the latest updates. I do occassional change sims and band preferences. Let me know if you need anything else.   Thanks.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Spent a lot of time in Westchester this weekend, specifically Yonkers and White Plains. I mapped three AT&T Nokia -> Ericsson conversions. I was super impressed with T-Mobile's macro density and not so much with AT&T's. In Yonkers it seems like T-Mobile macros outnumber AT&T macros 3 to 1 and in White Plains, 2 to 1. Another surprise was the lack of small cells on AT&T in both cities. While Cellmapper shows White Plains having no small cells, I did manage to find one in the Church Street neighborhood. While it's only one, it's an indication to me that T-Mobile intends on expanding n41 density with small cells in the city. On the other hand, in Yonkers T-Mobile has a ton of LTE small cells but none of them have been upgraded to 5G yet as far as I can tell. Crown Castle has been moving super fast in NYC and Long Island to upgrade and install new 5G small cells so I can only assume it's either a permitting or backhaul issue that's stopping them from moving full steam ahead there. — — — — — Came across this cool site in Yonkers with Verizon, T-Mobile, and Dish present.

      Other two sectors finally installed. Hopefully it goes live soon though I know from past experience that these new builds can take weeks and in some cases months to go live.
