i thought wifi had to be off to do a prl update

Nope I've done it on wifi. I was going to a newer version so I definitely know it worked.

 

It's too bad there isn't a way to manually write a PRL like on some other phones.

It holds LTE like a beast so far, drove from the Bronx to midtown and back, have no idea what the 3G logo looks like. Have yet to drop to 3G even in an elevator.   B26 performance in particular seem

Got the factory image last night. Stagefright free now.

And a single release for all mobile providers, unlike 5.1.1 where T-Mobile and Fi users received individual branches. Nice and simple.

I updated to the newest release LMY48i. I messed around and got encrypted again. My device ran just a tad bit slower but the battery life difference was major. I ended up decrypting again now my battery life is back to normal.

I don't know what's up with battery life and encryption. Maybe it's because it has to do more.

Does not updating the boot loader when upgrading the radio cause the radio to not function properly? The reason I ask is because normally I don't upgrade the bootloader just the radio when flashing updates ROMs. When I flashed the latest ROM with the stage fright fix I upgraded the bootloader. Now I've noticed that my Nexus 6 hangs on the LTE longer and it rescans for LTE connection faster. This is using the same radio just with an upgraded bootloader.

No its not. Then again it's not final. It feels more like Android 5.5 rather than 6.0

There is some new things. Look at the signal icon when it is switching networks.a9b7bb3943382eb991f3656f06cc6e6b.jpg

I have been noticing substantial on screen time with this preview. I didn't want to post it here unless it was consistent and I have been getting 5 hours minimum of on screen time after this build. In the 3 days I have been testing it. This is stock and encrypted btw. fa1681ac6eb7989d7310c065765573f3.jpg

Those having missed incoming calls when connected to WiFi and LTE.

If users don't report this issue this will never get resolved, call sprints executive # and report it. Be very specific, let them know when WiFi and LTE are connected at the same time.<br />

The phone # on the better business bureau website will get you to executive customer service.

I wonder how the 2015 models will compare to the 6

 

Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

I think we both will be great phones but I'm not interested in either one. I'm still satisfied with my Nexus 6.

Not sure if this has already been brought up but is anyone else experiencing burn-in on the top and bottom of their N6?

IIRC the N6 uses an AMOLED screen, so that's normal. (And it's the reason I prefer a nice LCD over an AMOLED. I love the recent Moto hardware design, but AMOLEDs really make me question it.)

The 2015 Moto X Style/Pure Edition display is LCD.

      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 coule potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.

      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.
