FINALLY!!

 

So since I'm rooted and have the other bands enabled, should I revert to stock and disable the bands before the update? Or should it not matter?

I'm wondering about this too. This is the first phone I've rooted or done anything to. I wasn't planning on taking the OTA, and just side load the update through TWRP. Do I need to do anything special before flashing it?

Looking forward to see who gets their phone updated first. I may go back to full stock before I try anything on stock with a custom kernel, rooted, busy box and exposed.

Whew!

 

Alright Adam G, if I go to bed tomorrow and I don't have the update, I'm holding you accountable! Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Just use this guide. It should contain whatever scenario you have.

I haven't seen anyone actually get it yet. Am I blind and my Google searching capabilities failing me? Its nice to know that for once a customer service person from sprint had real legitimate info though :D.

Has anyone received an OTA notification? Stock users?

Haven't seen one anywhere yet. I am thinking it isn't exclusive to Sprint. That would be a first.

 

We will probably see it roll out to everybody soon. Today? Maybe.

The best place will be that XDA ota thread already linked above.

I have the XDA thread open, I was just wondering if anyone had spotted it somewhere else or gotten it already. I couldn't find any info for the update on the factory image page of Google, doesn't that mean it hasn't rolled out yet since Google is pushing the update?

I have this thread open and the XDA thread open. I bet we get confirmation by midday and the url by end of work day today. I'm guessing sprint posted first thing. Google may not have pushed anything and in fact, is two hours behind overland park

What a day for an OTA – specifically, Android 4.4.3 for the Nexus 5. Sprint has updated its support page to indicate KTU48F is dropping today, which we understand to be the rumored 4.4.3 release. There is a Sprint-specific tweak in this update, but the software should also be hitting N5s that aren't connected to the Sprint network at the same time.

 

  • Enable Sprint Spark band 26 and band 41
  • Misc Android updates

Begins today and will be completed in 14 days

So when does Google usually posts the official factory files? After 14 days or the same date it starts the OTA?

    • 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?
