A little off topic, but just wanted to put in my experience in case anyone is traveling soon and my experiences with the S5.    I just got back from the Netherlands and I'll have to say that using y

Why would we be bothered?    This site has known of the fact and the reasons for no SVLTE or SVDO on all triband devices for well over a year now. It is what it is until VoLTE arrives. Those who nee

If the store is smart they fix it. Its only held on by one screw and can be fixed in seconds. We harvest them off all gs5 that get sent back since its not a part sprint currently replenishes us with.

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)

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.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Yes! That does keep it from wandering off Dish and most importantly, reconnecting immediately (at least where there is n70). Thanks!

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By Trip · Posted

      I have my Dish phone locked to NR-only.  That keeps it on Dish and only occasionally will it see T-Mobile NR SA for brief periods before going to no service. I also don't have mine band locked beyond that, except that I have some of the unused bands turned off just to try to reduce scan time.  Fortunately, my Dish phone is the one with the MediaTek chipset, so it has NR neighbor cells, and I can usually see n71, n70, n66, and sometimes n29 (market-dependent) through those regardless of which band it's connected to as primary. - Trip

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By dkyeager · Posted

      Excuse my rookie comments here, but after enabling *#73#, it seems that the rainbow sim V2? requires n70 (I turned it off along with n71 - was hoping to track n66) to be available else it switches to T-Mobile.  So this confirms my suspicion that you need to be close to a site to get on Dish.  Have no idea why they don't just use plmn. To test, I put it into a s21 ultra, rebooted twice, came up on T-Mobile (no n70 on s21).  Tried to manually register on 313340, but it did not connect (tried twice). I am on factory unlocked firmware but used a s22 hack to get *#73# working.  Tried what you were suggesting with a T-Mobile sim partially installed, but that was very unstable with Dish ( I think they had figured that one out).  [edit: and now I see Boost sent me a successful device swap notice which says I can now begin to use my new device.  Sigh.  Will try again later and wait for this message - too impatient.]

      Hopefully this indicates T-Mobile hasn't completely abandoned mmwave and/or small cells? But then again this is the loop, so take that as you will. Hopefully now that most macro activity is done (besides rural colo/builds), they will start working on small cells.
