KTU65 is a leaked build! Hopefully includes Triband radio software

Where is it leaked? There are often sightings of different/newer Nexus builds in the wild.. presumably that's Google people testing things out. Don't get me wrong, I want the update too.. but this isn't the first time something like this has been spotted. I don't think anyone ever doubted that Google was continuing work on the N5.

Ah well it's good to see that this may be a possibility in the near future.  With any luck this will contain the spark update in addition to the other bug fixes.

 better explained at myce.com.  The fact that google does not intend to fix this bug tells me they are close.

Got on band 26 today randomly while waiting for a bus in Houston.

Did you do any tricks (PRL trick, etc.) or you just randomly decided to check and it was on Band 26? Being in Orange County, CA I won't be seeing the likes of band 26 anytime soon, so I'm just jealous of you guys. :P

Did you happen to notice what the signal difference was when you were connected to b25 and b26?

So does anybody know the deal with the lack of voicemail notifications? I get none when someone leaves me a message. I did some sniffing on the web and apparently it's quite widespread.

 

I haven't got my MSL yet so I can't horse with the bands, which sucks cuz I knows there's band 41 everywhere! And probably band 26 too.

 

I so far do like the phone very much. I got red and it's more of a dark orange then red. I like how fast texts go through. They were slow on the iPhone and S3. Adjusting to android from iOS has been much easier for me then previous versions of both.

Some will say to incorporate google voice to your device, I haven't. Holding the 1 button will work but you have to set your mailbox up.

It's the quickest and easiest way to do it. Gives you visual voicemail as well. You don't even have to integrate it, just to the "light" route and set it up for voicemail only. Simple.

Google voice is a good temporary fix but I want the regular VM to work. I borrowed a TMO SIM stuck it in my phone, left myself a message and the notification worked just fine.

It was just random. I was waiting at a bus stop for the rodeo and noticed great service so I checked.

Band 25 was completely unusable -115 and higher. Band 26 had full bars and was around mid 70s. Also much higher speeds on b26

Me, too and I have no idea why but it's very annoying

Gosh I get those too and always think my phone is going to explode because they come in 5 or 6 at a time. I think it's voicemail related (says something about voicemail in the text) although I never have a voicemail when I get them.

    • A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.
    • Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.
    • Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.
    • Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.    
    • What is the cheapest way to try Dish's wireless network?  Over the past year I've seen them add their equipment to just about every cell site here, I'm assuming just go through Boost's website?  What phones are Dish native?
