What is enable auto lock? I assume this is not 8.3?

It is 8.4. But "enable auto-lock" is just enabling the setting that makes the phone lock after X amount of minutes. I have mine set to never auto lock.

I thought I was the only one that rolls like that. Makes staring at field test while driving possible, although dangerous if you ever set your phone down and forget to hit the power button (which I've done).

My developer account expired today and I'm still on iOS 9. I'm so scared my phones gonna bug out.

Yeah it won't bug out on you. The only thing that not having a registered developer device will do is not allow you to restore to a beta. You can update to a beta, but if you have to do a restore, you will have to go back to a public OS and then update from there.

Any carrier update is good. It means Sprint tweaked something with the way the phone interacts with the network, albeit band switching, signal/dbm display, or internal features.

You'll be fine until the beta expires, and that's quite a while from now. The betas only check the device's developer status when you first update and activate (and apparently in the iOS 9 beta it doesn't even do that).

Well whatever they pushed, it sucks. I'm sitting in my room on the third floor where I would usually have b41 and "4 bars".... And it won't even connect to it. Keeps bouncing from tower to tower and b25 and !26...

 

Been waiting for it to switch to b41 for 6 mins now. Nothing. Vince, want to email your contact at sprint and tell them they done goofed?

I'm having the opposite effect...I drove 26 miles from Rowland Heights, CA to Glendale, CA without dropping LTE once. This is the first time that's ever happened. Sorry to hear your pain [emoji31]

Hmmm. Well there is a lightning storm. I'm on b41 now but it's not my home site, it's the one down the street. Actually now it switched to b25 or b26 again. Maybe the tower nearest me is down.

I've experienced that before, my home tower is Clear B41 with no NV 1.0, and there is a Sprint B41 tower (fully upgraded sans B26) nearby that is about a block or two out of my range. The Clear tower hiccups at least 2 or 3 times a month, sometimes for hours at a time and I'm thrown down to EVDO or fringe B25 (which always works fine nonetheless, I believe from the upgraded tower). Not sure if that's network prioritization or a genuine problem, I use minuscule amounts of data (no streaming, downloading, updating...mainly email and Tapatalk).

Yeah this carrier update sucks. I went from iOS 8.3 where I would put my phone in my pocket on LTE and pull it out on 3G, to iOS 8.4 where I would put my phone in my pocket on LTE and pull it out on LTE, to this new carrier bundle where I'm back to 8.3-like performance. I wanna go back! Lol.

I can't connect to the clear B41 tower down the road, but am latched to B26 from like a mile away. This update blows.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      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.  — — — — — The old permit expired for this site without any work being done but a new permit was just approved a few days ago for a T-Mobile site at this address. Description mentions 3 antennas with 2 RRUs per sector. My guess is they're doing something similar to what they did at 360 Furman St in Brooklyn where they broadcast Band 2/66 and n25/41 from one antenna. It's a bit of a downgrade considering the site it's replacing was a full build with Ericsson 6449s.

      Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
