Oh, the benefits of stepping outside.

Forgive me, I'm still a bit excited about getting my new phone. I came home expecting to never see 4G and just flipped on the antenna just for kicks and BAM, 4G was found. If I'm anywhere near a wall I get signal and the speed increase is definitely worth it especially since the 3G towers here get really bogged down during prime time. Picture time.

That's true. However in my apartment complex, at the furthest point from our router 4G is sometimes more reliable. It's a G router with about 12 competing routers. I guess it's just awesome having so many options for connectivity.

Definitely is nice. I just moved my router so I could get better connectivity. The laptop pulls it up just fine but the phone doesn't have the range of the laptop.

I see, I have the Evo Design 4G which is rather new for a WiMax device so I assume it has some of the best antennas available. Also, all the extra stuff to make it a "world phone."

 

Well, phones in general don't have the same power Wi-Fi chip.

Ah, I see. I don't know that much about smartphones and their usage yet. I'm pretty tech savvy you might say, I understand the chipsets and CPUs and such from a technical side but lack entirely real world experience in the area. Brb, I'll show you my old phone... you'll understand.

That's right! It's Sprints iPhone killer from 2008! With full 3G support, GPS, and a Pandora subscription, this phone has it all! Need pictures? No problem, just hit that dedicated faux chrome camera button and bring that 2MP camera to life! It also features a full HTML web browser and supports some javascript. Buy it now with an Everything Unlimited Plan!

I wish my new phone was half the phone of the Instinct, lol.

Edit: Success! No longer "smoke signals," now I can sleep.

LOL, my wife had one of those. 3 phones ago... Not a bad phone for its time but not the iPhone killer it was billed to be.

    • Was able to install the March 1 Android security patch. Seems slightly more accurate with 5g ca band id, but can not swear by it. Updated google play system update through the software information screen to March 1. *#73# still works. Froze updates waiting on SCP update beta to fix n41 showing as n38.
    • Just installed it. Thanks for the info.  71 mb mar 1st date.
    • There's a permit for a new 47 story building at 205 Montague St in Downtown Brooklyn. The problem is that  T-Mobile eNB 48352 is on the building next door and this new building will block two out of 3 sectors of the site. For reference, the new building will be roughly as tall as 16 Court St which is right across the street. This site is the primary site covering Cadman Plaza so I wonder what the plan is. Will they just try to change sector placement, move to a different building, or will this just speed up the conversion of the Sprint site at 25 Monroe Place?
    • At least not recently.  I think I might have seen this a year ago.  Not Sure.
    • Did they previously hop between n38 and n41 in prior version of SCP, or have you always seen n41 displayed properly?
