Youth is wasted on the young.

 

Maybe we should age like Orkans instead.

Having years on you is not fair, how so? I wish I was still your age, means I would still be in school and not have to worry about bills and work.

I'm not sure if you are referring to me. If so, I'm in school and I still worry about work and bills. Everything is subject to your own experiences. Honestly I can't wait to be done with school and have my degree and all of this behind me. It's too much for just one person to deal with, IMO.

I was actually referring to Rukin. He said he is 21 years old. When I was 21 I didn't have much to worry about. It is true that experiences will vary on the individual. I had significant help from my parents. Started my career at age 23, been on my own since. (I'm 26)

i've seen 5 inch floppies, they are huge, but the 3 inch ones are the ones I used.

 

That's what she said!

 

(Just submitting proof that while I'm an old 40+ fart, I do still keep up with some of the more youthful hipster trends)

 

(Also, I'm ashamed of AJ, he should have picked up on that long before me since this is the first time I've even read this thread)

He's right though, i've seen 5 inch floppies, they are huge, but the 3 inch ones are the ones I used.

If you are 5 inches while still "floppy," that is none too shabby.

 

:P

ok I have a potential newb question. What 'frequency latitude' do cell phone antenna have? The reason I ask is I am curious with the advent of the qualcomm rf360 what the potential is for 'flashing' a sprint phone with that front end chip to say a verizon or the other way. In theory the chip would support it, but how close would the frequencies need to be assuming it could be tricked into switching. I assume the presence of three antenna (in addition to BT \ wifi etc) for cell service relates to the bands meaning the antenna have some limits or just to allow multiple transmissions at once. I could be entirely wrong as well!! 

 

I do miss the good old days with quad band phones that you could pretty much get on ans gsm network in the world and a few 'worldphones' that could do virtually any network. 

 

And sadly I do remember 5 1/4 inch floppies (they were actually floppy unlike the 3 1/2 inchers), I also used reel to reel tape drives which had somewhere around 120mb of capacity, although thats less to do with my age and more to do with the tightness of my employer at the time :) They did have a wolfcreek though, that was a shiny toy and amusing to watch at full speed.

    • After several months of testing, an update to SignalCheck Pro is rolling out on Google Play. It may take up to 48 hours to become available for download. Notable changes include: Added option to display site notes for NSA 5G-NR cells. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show NSA 5G-NR Site Notes) will cause the app to make an "educated guess" as to what the most appropriate site note is linked to the connected NSA 5G cell, using the PCI and the device location. If it finds an existing entry that is likely to be relevant, it will display the note along with the distance from where the strongest signal from that cell was logged. While connected to NSA 5G, these notes cannot be edited; a valid NCI is required to add/edit notes and that information is not available on NSA connections.   Added option to log cells with missing/invalid PLMN (such as NSA 5G-NR cells). Users asked for the ability to log data for NSA 5G, so a new option (Preferences > Logger Settings > Log Cells with Missing PLMN) will permit this.   Added option to display LTE info above 5G-NR info. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show LTE Cells Above 5G-NR Cells) shows the same information that is currently displayed, but moves the LTE information above the 5G-NR information. Other changes: Code optimizations and enhancements. Improved Android 15 compatibility. Overhauled Purchases module. Resolved force closes impacting some GSM/LTE connections. Resolved issue with improper 5G-NR PLMN display when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with improper PLMN display with single-digit MNCs. Resolved issue with incorrect 5G-NR bands displayed on some devices due to Android bug. Resolved issue with incorrect number of neighbor cells displayed when some cells were unknown. Resolved issue with missing 5G-NR data when sector display is enabled. Resolved issue with saving 5G-NR site notes when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with settings to log missing GCI/NCI/TAC/PLMN being ignored. Resolved issues with web data export function. Updated internal libraries. Updated provider database. Updated target API to Android 15. I appreciate all of your support, and a big thank you to the members of the Beta Crew that help with testing and feedback!
    • Oct security update is out.
    • Stopped by again today and the antennas are up but it isn't live just yet. If other Sprint conversions are anything to go by it'll likely take about a month for the site to go live.
    • It is an Android bug that was reportedly fixed in August 2023 but definitely has not been. I have implemented numerous workarounds in SCP to correct the NR bands the app displays. The OS ignores the possibility that many NR-ARFCNs are valid across multiple bands.. it reports the lowest NR band that is valid for the current ARFCN. In your example, channel 432530 can be n1, n65, or n66.. so the OS just (lazily) reports n1.   Awesome, thanks! I will add an n65 override also.
    • Yeah both of those instances were on my AT&T s22 ultra. Seems ro be working as intended today in latest release.
