Is Nokia's Here Maps and Navigation available yet for this phone and other non Nokia Windows phones? Same question for the ESPN fantasy football app - this was a Nokia exclusive last year.

 

I'm currently using a Windows Phone, and I like it because its great at the basics for a smartphone (texting, web browsing). It doesn't have all the apps like Android and iPhone, but as long as fantasy football is available that's all that matters.

I think its a mistake to release these WP devices right before Tribands are supposed to come out. I was planning to buy the first WP8 device, but the timing is poor. No way I'm plopping down good mo

Well...   ##3424# (DIAG) gives you a self-diagnostic app. Testing screen, touch, LED, buttons, etc.   ##72786# (SCRTN) gets you to a Service Tools app. It includes sections for PST, DATA, MSL, RTN

I just purchased a HTC 8X yesterday.  I was getting tired of switching out my Tmo and AT&T SIMs back and forth in my Nexus 4, and the Nexus 4 doesn't work with AT&T LTE.  So it should arrive o

The MS website doesn't mention anything about Nokia.

My AT&T HTC 8X dialer codes don't work, except for ##3424#.  None of the others work.  I wonder if AT&T uses some other dialer codes for Engineering screens?  I didn't find anything in Google searches.

I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you, outside of Sprint, Samsung and Apple devices, engineering screens seem to be pretty much dead.

AT&T is reportedly the operator that started having engineering screens removed or access blocked.

      Are you sure that's Direct to Cell? That sounds like the 911 center was offline and they got brought back online via a Starlink uplink. Which also makes way more sense than Direct to Cell for that area.

      Sprint Super Bowl Coverage/DAS

      February is always closer than you think! https://stadiumtechreport.com/news/caesars-superdome-gets-matsing-deployment-ahead-of-super-bowl-lix/ Another Super Bowl, another MatSing cellular antenna deployment. Caesars Superdome, home of the NFL’s New Orleans Saints, has deployed a large number of cellular antennas from MatSing as part of an effort to increase wireless network capacity ahead of the upcoming Super Bowl LIX in February, 2025. It is the third such deployment of MatSing equipment at Super Bowl venues in as many years, following cellular upgrades at Allegiant Stadium for Super Bowl LVIII and at State Farm Stadium for Super Bowl LVII. According to the Saints, the MatSing antennas were part of a large wireless overhaul this offseason, done primarily “to satisfy fans’ desires for wireless consumption and bandwidth,” an important thing with Super Bowl LIX coming to the venue on Feb. 9, 2025. Each year, the NFL’s big game regularly sets records for wireless data consumption, with a steady upward progression ever since wireless networks were first put into stadiums. https://www.neworleanssaints.com/news/caesars-superdome-transformation-2024-new-orleans-saints-nfl-season-part-1-wifi-upgrades-wireless-cellular During the offseason renovation project, the foundation of the facility's new Distributed Antenna System (DAS) was the installation of 16 multi-beam, wideband spherical lense antennas that are seven feet in diameter and weigh nearly 600 pounds apiece, a model called the MatSing MS-48H180. Another 16 large antenna spheres of varying sizes and frequencies have also been installed for a total of 32 new large antennas, in addition to 200 cellular antennas inside and around the building, all of these products specifically made for high-density environments such as stadiums and arenas. The DAS system's performance is expected to enhance further as it becomes fully integrated throughout the season. The MatSing MS-48H180 devices, with a black color that matches the Caesars Superdome's roof, each were individually raised by hoist machines to the top of the facility and bolted into place. Each cellular antenna then transmits 48 different beams and signals to a specific area in the stadium, with each sphere angled differently to specifically target different coverage areas, allowing increased, consistent coverage for high-density seating areas. In addition to creating targets in seating and common areas throughout the stadium, these antennas create dedicated floor zones that result in improved coverage to the field areas for fans in 12 field-level suites and the Mercedes-Benz End Zone Club, teams and on-field media and broadcast elements. The project is also adding 2,500 new wireless access points placed in areas such as concourses, atriums, suites and food and beverage areas for better WiFi coverage.
