thanks all... thinking about getting a iPhone 5c via One Up and buy a Nexus 5 via Google (as I like both platforms) but was worried about swapping since they use different size sims.

The option to activate a "new" device on the Sprint site is pretty cool... but with the LTE models how easy is it to swap phones at will? do you follow the same process and swap sim cards or keep the sims in the respective device?

as always I thank the Great Oracle ;-) the mid section of CT is or was heavy wimax -- I didn't think band 41 was coming anytime soon though after the Spark roll out plans (or is band 41 and Spark two different things?) that just share the same bands? Yeah the hilly landscape or Torrington could use 800 BUT I'm not holding my breathe LOL :-) but will welcome it if it comes :-)

what about the Alcatel markets (NE)?

that explains why I have seen two nextel only towers brought down (not the tower just the equipment)

But I thought the credit didn't apply for One Up? Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

huh Backstory... I have a s4 which was my first (kept) android device after being a loyal iPhone user. Love the screen, dislike touchwiz and it's actually a bit too big.. Clearwire has a bunch of towers where I work so I figured I'd get a tri band phone - the iPhone 5C or 5s, but that's only 2 bands. So I said hmm maybe the X is it but it's only got 1 band. The Nexus 5 had me at $350...but the poor camera and well the long wait times have me looking at the iPhone again or X. Oh I just sold my s4 so I need to make up my mind I suppose before I ship it out ;-) Sorry for the soap opera posting :-) Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

For me it's a deal breaker as I live in a strong (well at one time) Nextel area, and I'm hoping that translates to lte at some point. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Thanks everyone Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

The X is only 1900 for lte correct? Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Thanks. Wasn't sure if the one up program blockd that. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Can you sign up for a new line of service, with the One Up program than later on port a number onto that new line? Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

This is way I am long on Sprint!!! Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Not to mention that it's by LG which has so far faired better than Samsung reception, no? Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Oh no doubt and again I think Mr son knows very well what he's doing. I'm very excited and long on sprint. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Technically from a customer perspective I don't see any change... AM I wrong to say that? Now I have to assume softbank has kicked network vision into high gear, but again tough to say. That all said, I'm happy as a sprint customer! Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

So just visit a sprint store to activate? Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

was going to get an iPhone 5s (selling my s4 as in Galaxy S4) BUT wow this is a great deal. so all three bands and pure nexus love?

Any info on whether these extra bands draw more power, to a noticeable level? Much like cdma to lte does? Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Right on! Heck I'd eat my phone if we even get large adoption of 800mhz. Ok I won't really eat it... But still Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

I assume they'll wait till Sprint gets its network up and running. Then start getting people to know this "new" company. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Not sure if this was already posted.. but I found it interesting. http://www.technobuffalo.com/2013/10/27/japans-big-three-carriers-explained-softbank/

and now Virgin.... thank you Mr. Son (not being sarcastic) http://www.dslreports.com/shownews/Sprints-Virgin-Mobile-Appears-to-Be-Killing-Unlimited-Data-126311

Interesting, I thought ios 7 solved that. Curiosity and all has me thinking it's either a license issue and or carrier's wanted download only. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Unfortunately we switched to a Samsung s3. And now have an s4 But want to switch back to an iPhone sooner rather than later. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk
