So my iPhone completely won't make or receive phone calls...  I have been on Chat with Sprint for the last 90 minutes.  Not happy... Wife's iPhone is fine though...  

 

Didn't I read something about some people were having issues with WiFi calling enabled, but not being on WiFi?

Anyone else finally seeing better battery life with 8.3 after letting it settle for a while? It wasn't good at first, but I seem to be back to that 7-8 hours of usage at the 50% mark.

IOS 8.4 Beta 1 battery update. Battery life seems to vary depending on what you're doing but I usually get around 4-5 hour's of usage. On a good day it'll be 5-6 houses. It varies

I had that happen to me. I had to go into my plans services on the sprint site a deselect wifi calling. Phone worked fine after that. I had to turn wifi calling back on today because I can not make/receive calls on my iPhone or nexus 5. Tower just had the 65mghz upgrade. So I think they had something fail in it.

I used to hit the 5 hour mark around 33% battery now I'm hitting it around 45% battery instead. The other day I saw it hit 8 hours usage and was at 20%. Not sure if that's iOS 8.3 or the network change...

A question for Josh or Anthony. I have the code for the MSL but not the * or # before or after the code. Do either you have those?

iPhones don't take an MSL. Let me guess, you called to get your phone unlocked, and Sprint gave you an MSL of "000000," right?

Go into settings, then music, then select "Show all Music". That should fix it

What about the music that's already in your library? Like downloaded stuff, i.e stuff that hasn't been purchased?

Surprised there isn't much talk about the 6s lately. Where are the rumors haha. 

 

All I have read is:

 

WiFi Antenna improvement

Camera Improvement

A9 chip

Sapphire glass

 

BUT... we will see when it is released.

There have been Sapphire Glass rumors for at least 2 years. I bet it's on the 7, though. It's really hard to produce in quality/quantity.

That is very true.  Just put it out there since they have had time to work on some of the production issues.

I've owned an iPhone 6 for a month now but only used it for 24 hours. My carrier is holding me hostage since I've been trying to cancel. Now I have to "prove" the gap I claimed the phone has, which they deny. This is what you get for dealing with a third party when buying an iPhone. Fail.

 

I hope to photograph the gap issue tonight so I'll share tomorrow. I've purchased another two iPhone 6 units for family since this disaster and they're perfect. (Well one got stuck on the Apple boot screen for 20 minutes but since I got it to boot, it's been good since)

Did anyone buy an Apple Watch? I got to play around with a co-worker's yesterday and suddenly really want one.

Yes I have the 42mm white sport and honestly I don't see the use. I'll be returning mine.

    • Just mapped at least 8 5G small cells (all 109xxxx gNBs) while driving on the Southern State. They all seem to be n25/n41. I'm pretty sure nearly all of them are upgrades of existing small cells as opposed to new builds but I'm glad to see Crown Castle/T-Mobile hard at work getting midband 5G on all of these. Each of the unpinned gNBs belong to 1-2 small cells. I still can't pin these sites until the Cellmapper devs give us the option to split cells for 5G sites.
    • Their offers have been crap recently, so this is just more evidence to not buy from T-Mobile. 
    • T-Mobile Will Soon Prevent Early Payoff Of Phones Receiving Bill Credits If you finance a phone with T-Mobile it will remain locked until paid off but now you won't be able to pay off early. If you don't currently purchase your phones from the manufacturer here is another reason it might be a good idea.
    • 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.  — — — — —  Old permit for this new install expired but a new one was recently issued. It's gonna be similar to the site at 360 Forman St in Brooklyn Heights. Permit calls for only 3 antennas to be installed so I'm assuming it gonna be Band 2/41/66 and n25/41 only which is a bit of a downgrade from the now decommissioned full build that was on 871 7th Ave but in it's current state the nearest macro is a few blocks away and a small cell at Broadway and 55th is doing a lot of heavy lifting in the area so anything helps.  
    • Still not seeing any ULS postings for pending T-Mobile UScellular merger in Dane county Wisconsin.
