I haven't used it but for a day. not enough time to tell since I'm waiting for the update then I'll switch back.

Edit: no update for me right now, I'll check later after work.

Over at XDA they are reporting an increase in signal strength for LTE. They're flashing a tar of the ROM. I'm waiting for the official GOTA link but if you're brave you can head over to XDA for the links.

that may just be it fixing the issue where everything lower than -100dbm is shown as one bar

Anyone have a battery drain issue being caused by "quick connect"

It ate 40% of my batt today. I don't even know what it is really. Who the hell uses this thing.

Android system and android OS drain my battery like crazy. Really disappointed with the standby battery life.

I wonder if it actually was rolled out? I haven't spoken to anybody that's received the update yet.

Agreed, it's strange that no one has reported they've received it.....

 

It's still not available on Kies.

 

It usually isn't for quite some time after the OTA roll out is complete if it operates like it has in the past.

And it works...now I can finally make/receive calls and texts in my 100 year old steel and cinderblock hospital. (Verizon and AT&T don't even work there, Verizon had to place a bunch of small cells in the ceiling)

GS5, WiFi Calling: Loaded. Configured. Activated. Works. Bye bye, Airave! Yippee!

 

Edit: Band 26. Band 41. GCI logging in Signal Check. WiFi calling. Great battery life. I LOVE THIS PHONE!

So am I - my wife has a 5c and works deep inside a masonry building at least 3 miles from the nearest Sprint site, and this could be a big help to her.

    • Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and could potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.  — — — — — The old permit expired for this site without any work being done but a new permit was just approved a few days ago for a T-Mobile site at this address. Description mentions 3 antennas with 2 RRUs per sector. My guess is they're doing something similar to what they did at 360 Furman St in Brooklyn where they broadcast Band 2/66 and n25/41 from one antenna. It's a bit of a downgrade considering the site it's replacing was a full build with Ericsson 6449s. 
    • Still not seeing any ULS postings for pending T-Mobile UScellular merger in Dane county Wisconsin.
    • Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
