The bottom line for me is if ALL video streaming was being throttled, why even require content providers subscribe and be approved by T-Mobile? All video that was being throttled should have counted

Legere's blog post was very misleading. He made it seem the national map was LTE coverage. Either native or through partners. We know it's not LTE coverage.   And not only is it EDGE in the Dakot

Do these Magentans not realize that this is just opening the door for Verizon to shred Net Neutrality in the courts? What do they think will happen when Verizon finds the Appellate and Supremes whose modus operandi is "corporations are people?" It's like T-Mobile has taken a page out of the "how to make people vote against their own self-interest" playbook written by the Koch brothers.

 

Guys, I'm saying this for your own good.

John lost me when he said "customers don't want or need big data files."

 

Sounding like the big two telling its users what they do or don't want. But he didn't explain as to why other services who aren't apart of the program as well as web video is having this effect?

 

John can talk a good game though....propaganda is one hell of a drug.

I haven't seen the video yet but if he really says that, then he has the same mindset as the Vzw CEO. "You don't need this."

Legere is an amazing businessman. I just wish people would stop buying that he is looking out for them in any way shape or form.

He's still using the same shtick: http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1877536-Marcelo-s-problem-understanding-a-gigabit?p=16335580#post16335580

 

Different screen name, but that's him.

 

Cursory research on Brett Schulte shows that he ran some sort of IT repair/consulting business that is now closed -- maybe because Brett was not a "good communicator."

 

;)

Why he look like he's about to cry? Just like what the eef was saying, it's messing with other services. But John don't like 3rd party except ookla

A fair response would be "I have some fundamental issues with their analysis, I would be happy to meet with the EFF to clarify what T-Mobile does in BingeOn. I respect their work but I think they have to analyze this issue differently."

Irony is that the EFF is practically the "uncarrier" of digital activism -- and greatly predates T-Mobile in that regard.

 

The smart people are speaking, John.  Your dog and pony show is growing stale.

I still don't know how John has addressed the BingeOn problem that initially started this whole controversy. If I have BingeOn on, and am streaming YouTube, and I select 1080p or 720p, why does the video buffer? If T-Mobile optimized the video, wouldn't it just downscale automagically? I don't see how T-Mobile is optimizing non BingeOn video. In YouTube's case, it may be technically impossible for T-Mobile to modify their video. They changed their methods of delivering video and encryption post-Snowden, if I recall correctly.

      Uploaded data without issues on Friday. Now with the latest update I am getting "Cluster #1 skipped: invalid file format detected. File exported for inspection." Doing same with all other clusters. Did this on 4 phones in a row.  Seems to work on s24 ultra just fine. On s21 ultra it says "web data upload failed. No data to send" although 8800 records were displayed. Now gives same error as above. I have not sent the data from 3 other phones.  All should have latest update.

      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.
