I had quite a few issues with the 6. Have not had a single issue with the 6s. All of the quality control issues that existed in the 6 have definitely been resolved with the 6s. No more front facing issues. Cell reception issues have been resolved. The only thing I've noticed in the past few weeks is that my touch ID has slowed down..or at least it seems to have. I probably just have gotten used to it and now I expect it to be faster.

If I can't get a "proper" 6, one that has zero defects, then I'm gonna start considering upgrading, only thing is I promised myself I would wait until the iPhone 7 (that'll probably be a big disaster like the 6 with my luck), which is why I got apple care + and sure enough its coming in handy.

 

I'm considering a switch to a TOL Android if this doesn't get worked out.

All of the defaults that were in the 6 probably came because it was a whole new design it's to be expected. Apple probably didn't refine all the kinks with the 6 they did it with the 6s and 6s Plus. But I've never heard of anyone getting that many iPhone replacements. I've had my same iPhone 6 for a whole year now. I decided I'm gonna wait for the 7 simply because it doesn't make sense to get a 6S Plus right now and then 9 months later the new one will be out.

I've noticed my Touch ID has become a bit more "touchy" the past couple weeks as well. However, it's still light years better than my 6 or 5s, so I really can't complain. I really have zero complaints about my 6s. (I just jinxed it...)

I saw that. I still use Crapatalk on my iPad. SF and Roboto are really similar. I was surprised but it is a pretty small difference.

Okay I'm hearing and seeing commercials about Sprints LTE Plus. Is there something I need too do with my iPhone 6 to take advantage of this new service ?

As long as you are in a carrier aggregation enabled area you should be good to go.

It's ok. I have moments like that where I think I see 6s and it's actually 6.

People who ask questions or seek advice but do not update or state their Phones/Devices deserve to get slapped.

So with the PRL update and new carrier profile when updating to iOS 9.1, did anyone notice any changes to signal or band switching?

 

I know it probably hasn't been long enough...the past few days I've been having some complete drops of coverage so hopefully this resolves it.

As you said, there hasn't been enough time yet to tell, but I'll be sure to pay attention to it over the next few days.

I feel like it broke my phone again. I can't keep a connection. Also the apple watch update broke the watch as well.

Anyone know as to why my HD calling has stopped working on my iPhone 6 and 6s?

      SignalCheck - Android app to monitor your Wi-Fi/2G/3G/4G LTE/5G-NR signal strengths

      By mikejeep · Posted

      After several months of testing, an update to SignalCheck Pro is rolling out on Google Play. It may take up to 48 hours to become available for download. Notable changes include: Added option to display site notes for NSA 5G-NR cells. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show NSA 5G-NR Site Notes) will cause the app to make an "educated guess" as to what the most appropriate site note is linked to the connected NSA 5G cell, using the PCI and the device location. If it finds an existing entry that is likely to be relevant, it will display the note along with the distance from where the strongest signal from that cell was logged. While connected to NSA 5G, these notes cannot be edited; a valid NCI is required to add/edit notes and that information is not available on NSA connections.   Added option to log cells with missing/invalid PLMN (such as NSA 5G-NR cells). Users asked for the ability to log data for NSA 5G, so a new option (Preferences > Logger Settings > Log Cells with Missing PLMN) will permit this.   Added option to display LTE info above 5G-NR info. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show LTE Cells Above 5G-NR Cells) shows the same information that is currently displayed, but moves the LTE information above the 5G-NR information. Other changes: Code optimizations and enhancements. Improved Android 15 compatibility. Overhauled Purchases module. Resolved force closes impacting some GSM/LTE connections. Resolved issue with improper 5G-NR PLMN display when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with improper PLMN display with single-digit MNCs. Resolved issue with incorrect 5G-NR bands displayed on some devices due to Android bug. Resolved issue with incorrect number of neighbor cells displayed when some cells were unknown. Resolved issue with missing 5G-NR data when sector display is enabled. Resolved issue with saving 5G-NR site notes when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with settings to log missing GCI/NCI/TAC/PLMN being ignored. Resolved issues with web data export function. Updated internal libraries. Updated provider database. Updated target API to Android 15. I appreciate all of your support, and a big thank you to the members of the Beta Crew that help with testing and feedback!

      Stopped by again today and the antennas are up but it isn't live just yet. If other Sprint conversions are anything to go by it'll likely take about a month for the site to go live.

      It is an Android bug that was reportedly fixed in August 2023 but definitely has not been. I have implemented numerous workarounds in SCP to correct the NR bands the app displays. The OS ignores the possibility that many NR-ARFCNs are valid across multiple bands.. it reports the lowest NR band that is valid for the current ARFCN. In your example, channel 432530 can be n1, n65, or n66.. so the OS just (lazily) reports n1.   Awesome, thanks! I will add an n65 override also.
