I really hope marshmallow brings much better battery life. This battery life is making me miss my iPhone. I've tried everything I know to get my battery to last and I have to try to squeeze 11 hours out of it. I wake up at 6am so 11 hours doesn't suffice. I think this is ridiculous, androids always used to be battery Champs for me.

Consider downloading package disabler pro then you can disable some bloatware on the phone... Especially if you don't need to use some Samsung services.

My point is that its not central to his question and was unneeded.  I know plenty about power, distribution and heat. We can all imagine what happens when you push electricity into space, it's not as

I did that already :/ I don't know why my phone won't last. I don't even use it that often. The time I had it last about 12 hours was once and I only had a screen time of about an hour and a half

A lot of gas station pumps are incorporating TV's here. I haven't seen the NFC before, so that's pretty cool!

 

It's a great marketing tool to advertise their in store specials, and the longer you pump (and more money you spend) the more likely they are to give out freebies.

 

Just a couple weeks ago I was given the option to print a coupon for a free fountain drink after pumping like 15 gallons of gas.

Going to wait until I hear it's official

I too am going to wait but I downloaded and checked out the file, it's legit and will easily work with Odin. Doesn't void any warranties, etc. If we don't get the push by the weekend, I just may flash it.

seems to break no root hotspot similar to the MM update for the S6....

 

anyway we can get the EPST apk from the S7? i heard it still work on the S7

 

The first rule about illegal tethering on S4GRU website is we don't talk about illegal tethering.  Take that question over to XDA.  The top brass will come down on this quickly. :)

It looks official, I used Odin and the tar file, and it didn't trip Knox, but this process will erase everything. If you take the OTA update, you shouldn't lose your data. Boot up animations are better looking, It says LTE plus, more spectrum, better network. Still downloading updates for the apps.

Are we sure it's official? And the same as the ota will be?

Until they release it, no, we don't know.  Regardless of the "cred" anyone has over at XDA, if you're uncertain, don't do it.  The fortunate thing is that IF it is not the final build, when the final build does release, you can ODIN that final build over this build.  The downside is that you will have to rebuild the phone again as it will wipe all your data.  This might bother some folks. 

 

EDIT, I stand corrected roll out goes live tomorrow. as per the next post.

      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.
