I had a Sprint product development employee reach out to me this morning after reading this thread. His message says:   Robert via Samsung Note 8.0 using Tapatalk Pro

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.

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?

 

Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

 

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.

 

Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

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?

      Someone told me a couple years ago, that there were problems getting certain modems to aggregate overlapping spectrum even if the overlapping parts were actually blanked. So I think there might be firmware issues that need to be resolved first, which T-Mobile might not consider worth the effort for 4MHz at this time.

      Tbh not that surprising. Every ISP seems to want to have an MVNO to pitch to their customers to make them stickier and maybe make some money in the process. And unlike USCC the MVNO should be able to cover TDS's entire wireline area, with infrastructure costs that are borne by someone else. Entertaining, yes. Surprising, not really...particularly when competing against Comcast or Spectrum, or even eventually T-Mobile fixed + mobile. This also strengthens my bet that they'll rebrand all their fixed wireless stuff as TDS, as that runs on spectrum they're keeping for now.

      No? RCS on Google messages works great for me, messages between anyone with RCS enabled go through with no problems. Don't remember the last time I had an issue. I only have issues with people on iPhones on different carriers from T-Mobile.

      Has anyone experienced a ridiculous amount of difficulty with Google messages with RCS enabled?  It has been a train wreck for me for the past year so I now use WhatsApp.  That works very well for all of us.... Android and iOS.

      Probably not worth the fiddling given that that's a few percent of the band. Also, if they really wanted to push my assumption is there are still guard bands in play for the n41 carriers so they could fit two "100 MHz" carriers into 194 MHz anyway. Looks like minimum guard band is less than 1 MHz and a 100 MHz channel is only 273 30 KHz resource blocks, which is a bit over 80 MHz total, so if they really wanted to pull another 5% or so capacity out they could.
