What about being jail broken with a comm center patch? How do these people make their own custom carrier bundles? There has to be a way.

Hm. Maybe we should compare one of those custom carrier bundles to the official one and see what the changes are. I'll hopefully be able to do that tomorrow.

That may be it. With my experience on 20.5.9, it was leaps and bounds better than 20.1. Why would you want to downgrade? (Just out of curiosity).

 

P. S. - beta 3 is out now.

Is the update OTA? I don't have it

It should be available OTA. But since yours isn't showing it, you can use this link to direct download it.

<3. Yeh, mine still isn't showing up even after all night. Still says iOS 9.0 is up to date. Hmmm, weird. Oh well, I'll just force it to update lol.

Beta 3 has me on carrier 20.6.7. Update was successful. Hopefully battery life is even more improved. Still unable to back up to iCloud so back ups will continue to iTunes.

Any better than 20.1 and our terrible drops to 3G?

Unless you love that Tapatalk font, and always wished it were a few points larger, don't upgrade to the new version.

well.... I had auto update on since I got tired of manually updating my apps and I guess the font isn't.... Horrible?

I updated my iPad mini 2 first before I consider upgrading my iPhone to the iOS 9 beta, and I must say, I'm impressed so far after 15 minutes of use.

 

Edit: Also, iPad mini 2 is on carrier bundle 20.5.2 and build 13A4293g for the Public Beta.

Which method are you all using to run the beta? Are you attached to a dev account? I kind of want to run it. The public beta hasn't been released yet, right?

It was released earlier today. I didn't want to jump on the beta until the Public Beta, which did drop earlier this afternoon.

Yeah they released the public beta earlier today. I updated my Dad's iPhone to it (I would do mine but I'm on jailbroken iOS 8.4, and you know, CellularInfo <3). They make it EXTREMELY simple to do. They tell you to back up to iTunes, go to a website that installs the public beta profile to your device, restart your device, go to OTA software updates, and BOOM! iOS 9 Public Beta 1. :)

Sprint still trying to fix the "definitely not carrier 20.1" related problem. Talked to a local Sprint RF engineer today. They still keep talking about dropped calls. I just want LTE to work like it used to...but I'm about to just give up and deal with it/switch to my old Galaxy.

That explains my confusion. I was searching for it last night, and could only find that it would be released "sometime in July." Thanks, guys.

Carrier bundle up to 20.6.5 on T-Mobile.

 

Upload speeds seem to be better here on the edge of the cell FWIW.

Have you updated the carrier bundle on 8.4?

So, iOS 9 is pretty neat, but I have one problem: I ran an iCloud backup once before doing the upgrade, and I also did a full iTunes backup. After upgrading, when I look in my iCloud storage on the phone, I no longer have a backup listed. I'm kind of nervous about that, even though I have one on iTunes. Any ideas where else I can look to see if it's still there? Maybe a bug is preventing me from seeing it?

I think this is one of the listed bugs on the known issues. They said you should instead do back ups to your iTunes vs iCloud until it is fixed. I have the same issue. Says 0 bytes, and when I try to back up to iCloud it fails.

    • 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. 
    • Still not seeing any ULS postings for pending T-Mobile UScellular merger in Dane county Wisconsin.
    • 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.
