I can imagine that will take a very long time

 

Yeah, when...

Should we give up hope on 3x CA on the Pixel XL?

Yeah 3xCA has been live on the Pixel. It was pushed as a profile update mid-May. It's just that SF doesn't have many sites with 3 carriers, though it seems that's been changing. Check the last post I made in the SF thread to see the ones found so far. There are likely more by now, assuming that wasn't just a trial period.

You're right.  I'm actually never near any of the 3x sites.  Good thing that they are showing up quickly!

If you're near any (or happen to see one somewhere), grab the earfcn of the 2nd and 3rd carrier.

It looks like that article needs to clarify they are only talking about T-Mobile. There aren't many mentions of Sprint. Verizon, AT&T, and others have had 3xCA on Pixels for awhile.

i thought it was already active but didn't know for sure. i see a lot of speedtests on S7 and S8 devices that are a ton faster than what i have seen with pixel devices.

 

anyone have any feedback with Oreo since the final has been pushed?

Pixel XL 128 GB Very Silver

I'm assuming you all purchased directly from Google?  I bought mine back in the day from Amazon and Huawei is being obnoxious about warranty / any information.

I have the xl 2 32 gigs... the phone's okay but the battery life isn't too good

 

Are you sure that's what you have? The Pixel 2 (regular and XL) have not been officially announced yet, let alone released into the wild..

Anyone received the September security update on Pixel XL (Sprint)?  If so, could you let me know what build number you have??

I flashed my Pixel manually and it is OPR3.170623.007. According to Google, it should be the same for the XL.

The alternate, OPR1.170623.026, is labeled for "Fi/Canada": https://developers.google.com/android/ota#marlin

    • These creditors are going to get screwed one way or another. I see no exit for them that will be painless. Rule # 1 - Never get in bed with Charlie.

    • I don't disagree entirely but a lot of the really rural coverage (like where I grew up) still has little or no competition.  There is a lot of overlap but there are also a number of unique sites that will help things. But also, the fact is that a lot of the rural T-Mobile coverage is still "map filler" coverage that doesn't actually provide reliable service.  This will help. https://imgur.com/a/LRWF3FO Using where I grew up as an example, magenta is T-Mobile, blue is US Cellular, and gold are unique sites Shentel planned but didn't get a chance to construct before the buyout derailed things. EDIT: And even a number of the T-Mobile sites shown here are Shentel conversions.  The only reason for the site NW of Keysville is that Shentel built that one before the buyout pause.  The site southwest of Meherrin wasn't a Shentel conversion, although Shentel did plan to build there, but rather was added to fill a gap along US-360 when the Shentel conversions were taking place.  Three of the five sites in Farmville proper are Shentel conversions also, as is the one north of town just barely on the map. - Trip
