they all com fedex air from hong kong

 

Yes, packages as small and light as those of handsets generally do not get stuck on the "slow boat (to) from China."

 

Think iPhone.  Just one cargo aircraft could carry several hundred thousand units across the Pacific.  And that would be worth several hundred million dollars at retail.  Not a bad shipping proposition.

Do you have inside knowledge about the update? I saw someone else (maybe it was you?) mention it adding engineering screens. If so, is there anything else you can tell us about it?

All I know for sure is that 5.1 should include engineering screens for Sprint. If I find out anything else I can share I will post.

So is everyone in Samsung markets having sms and missed calls? I really want this to be my next phone and I can upgrade March 1st but I really don't want to upgrade to a phone that's doesn't work as a phone. But I feel like I've already fallen in love with it. So it may not matter and I may just suck it up and get it anyway haha.

I live in an Ericsson market and I have the same issues. This is a Nexus 6 issue, not a Sprint issue.

For me, it's worse when the phone is connected to WiFi. So, I just leave my phone off Wi-Fi and it does OK. I hardly ever miss calls, and if people complain about getting multiple copies of my texts, I just flip the phone to 3G until I'm done. That always solves the problem. This is definitely something Google and Motorola can fix. It will most likely require changes to the radio firmware which will be included in a new update.

i am in a samsung market and don't have any call issues, but do have the sms issue.  there doesn't seem to be a problem receiving sms messages but if you are on B25/26 there is usually a delay sending.

And when there's a delay, there's a greater than 75% chance that your recipient is going to get between 2 and 8 copies if your text. :/

Would u still recommend the nexus 6? I know I have 14 days to return if the issue is to much for m. But I just want to know what I'm getting myself into.

Absolutely is recommend it. It's a great phone and the Sprint issues will get fixed soon. Honestly, if you have Wi-Fi most places that you go, just force the phone to 3G and you'll never encounter these issues with calls and texts. It's only a problem when connected to LTE.

Yes, it displays 1X when connected to 1X, as it should.

I still haven't had a text issue. Even traveling to New Orleans for Mardi Gras last weekend. I had a very few signal problems, but the wife's S4 and daughters G2 were having the same problems.

Sprint has 0 devices with voLTE right? Can't see them pioneering it on a subsequent release for the N6...

 

 

Also voWiFi?

I think he is speaking to wifi calling.

 

Thanks.

    • Interesting, I saw this too on my AT&T S22 while roaming on US Cellular. I thought it was an Android bug since CellMapper was doing the same thing (didn't get a screenshot of that one). N66 makes more sense than N1. 
    • Thanks, that was good timing, I did see your report as I was buttoning up this latest update and added an override for that.. did it not work?   Ok, was that on AT&T also? Please send a report if you happen to see it again and safely have the opportunity. You can always do the long-press on the fly and then send a later one with an explanation pointing to the earlier one.. your username is attached to the long-press reports, so it's not an issue.
    • I sent a report in earlier, n66 reporting as n1. There should be two different reports, I couldn't find the button the first time so I just long pressed the connection type to send, then I remembered where it was. I put a note about the issue on the 2nd report. Both reports from me are for the same issue. Also, it might have been on a prior release but earlier this week I also saw n66 reported as n65 on the app. I was driving and wasn't able to send a report in for that one. 
    • One more SCP beta rolling out.. includes more bugfixes and minor improvements. Pending any major issues with this version, it will be released to the public within a few days. Thanks for all the help and feedback!
    • Passed by the former Sprint site at 1184 60th St in Brooklyn last week and noticed T-Mobile took down all of the Sprint equipment but it looked like they installed some new cabinets so conversion is likely in progress.
