iPhone 6S/6S Plus/6C Rumor Thread

UPS won't let me modify my delivery one bit, as usual. Sprint restricts every UPS service when delivering phones, including: hold for pickup, rescheduling, and delivery windows. Bleh. There's a good possibility nobody will be home tomorrow.

You may not have had to sign, but you were required to read the disclaimer, right?

 

WARNING!  YOU JUST BOUGHT A SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 5.

Sprint didn't have me sign for my two pluses last year. They were just left on the porch. I was just checking the tracking with this reddit post it looks like they aren't requiring a signature again.

The hold for pickup I understand for fraud purposes. The others I don't understand why they restrict those.

That doesn't make sense. You need ID that matches the shipping label to pick a package up.

A few years ago, FedEx delivered my $1500 spectrum analyzer from Germany, did not require a signature when no one was home, and just left the box partially behind the bushes next to my front porch.

 

Corporate policy and delivery driver practice are two very different things.

Similar to a situation I had: Where I work we have every other Friday off and despite our very clear instructions AND SIGNAGE for receiving packages..... one day Fedex dropped off a rental one of these

Just marked it as "signed for by: Random Name" and left it there. We found it Monday and told the rental company who flipped their shit about it.

I wonder how the Field test mode report CA on the new iPhones....

You are making a huge assumption that it will. 

 

I fully expect that the iPhone Field Test -- which is pretty cool but is a secret that Apple does not want you to know about and has not been updated since the Nixon administration -- will display 2x CA like this...

I've been hoping for a field test makeover for quite some time now, and I have a feeling the iPhone 6s will be it. Those engineering screens show everything about the data connection, and they would almost have to show both pcc and scc band 41, right? I mean, it would be a huge "idgaf" on Apple's behalf if it's omitted.

We shall see. It will suck to only know you are experiencing CA by doing a speed test.

 

Also I hope the phones will be CA enabled out the box lol

If you start running multiple 2x CA speed tests on "unlimited" data, I will come hunt you down.

Mine is using ground going off that little cheat sheet. Which doesn't? Require a signature. They always ask for a signature when they drop off at my work.

You owe AJ a new keyboard, because I'm sure this made him slam it a few times.

Guys just in time for our new iPhones, the ookla speedtest app was FINALLY updated to support the iPhone 4.7 in and 5.5 in screen.

FINALLY

It's nice looking, and the new logo font is great. Only took them 1 friggin year to update it. I still have a few daily apps that are all stretched out and not updated. It's kind of unacceptable.

Exactly. It was already awful on my 6 and then when I got my 6+, seeing these apps, it made me cry a little more on the inside.

On a related note, "Sky Guide" is the first app update that I've received to support 3D Touch. I'm excited to try it out, and I hope it's something I actually use on this new phone.

    • 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!
    • Oct security update is out.
    • 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.
    • Yeah both of those instances were on my AT&T s22 ultra. Seems ro be working as intended today in latest release.
