Still trying to hang in there myself with all the issues in my market but that's for another thread. Appreciate the info!

The skies have parted.....oooooooo

Still have that issue of texting though. Curious to see how this will work since you will need a CDMA signal.

C'mon AJ... you are starting to sound like Sprint Network support that is causing some people to have blood transfusions to magenta. 0.02 megabit speed test. Take it or leave it...

One thing that is left unsaid that many of you might not know. Sprint and/or Google went WAY out of their way to make the Nexus5 work on their network. Not only with the Debug engineering screens but there's quite a bit of other pieces in the code base of the Nexus5 that looks for a Sprint SIM card. Nothing crazy and/or bloat, just some differences needed. You'd think with all that went into it, that any Nexus5 would be welcomed.

My point exactly... they should have open arms especially for a phone that is 100% designed for their network...down to many processes in the background that they require.

Yep, all over the city I see less than 1 megabit speeds in the last few months. We had 15x15 up until they sold 5x5 to AT&T a few years ago. So i doubt I will see another PCS carrier in this area anytime soon. B41 will be a long way away since it will have to be built from scratch and that means a lot of new sites to make it work. Hopefully 800LTE will be a bandaid for this for a bit.

Unfortunately Sprint needs to get their head unstuck on this one and do what they can to obtain and/or keep customers no matter if it is only a handful. Any customers using that Nexus5 on Sprint is better than them using it on Tmobile or AT&T.

Uploading the latest version now... tested from a fresh install with a fresh factory/data wipe and everything looks well. The OP is updated with the few other things I've added. I'm still only sharing the link via PM so drop me a note and I'll send it to you.

I can guarantee you that many tower operators would welcome any additional leases they can handle. Regardless of who else is already on the site.

Another thing you can do with the N5 is swap SIM cards. Perfect for those non Sprint area vacations. The N5 is probably one of the best hunting devices for tower info. Especially with lordsutch's app that shows even the nearby LTE sites, the PCI, GCI, and even your location on the map.

For AT&T MVNO Straight Talk, all I did was swap the SIM put in the APN settings and that's it. Didn't call anyone. This was with a Sprint provided Nexus5.

I've found no difference with it installed during its learning phase, with moderate usage and a good bit of Google music streaming yesterday, 12 hrs on battery and still had about 65% battery left. I'm skeptical that will save battery though after its learning deal.

Very true, capacity usually is it not an issue when between cities. It just that PCS LTE hand off at times when drop to 3g in the middle then get stuck there. Hopefully B26 will help that in some areas but not sure if it would switch you to that though.

Do you have relatives in Alabama by any chance ?

The epenis game continues I see. That's a whole bunch of people in the house to watch all that streaming video at once to go over 25.

All depends on if you need that speed. For instance paying another $30 a month for 100 megabit vs 25 megabit when 25 is plenty enough for our household is indeed crazy. Especially with the dumb cap of 400 gig.

Always interesting stuff there.... A Cell Site Data Base file was uploaded into the Airavan Femto Cell Service manager that had incorrect settings which will impact roughly 10% of the geographic region of the nation. (The markets are listed below) This will impact newly installed CFAPs and EFAPs within this geographic region coming up for the first time and they will not be able to come into service. Further, CFAPs and EFAPs which are factory reset within the markets listed will not come back into service. It is recommended that no factory resets be done within these markets until the problem is resolved. All existing/functioning CFAPs and EFAPs within these markets are not impacted. ETR for resolution is 6PM Central time& The impacted markets are listed: Alaska Atlanta Birmingham Dallas - Ft. Worth Denver El Paso - Albuquerque Little Rock Los Angeles - San Diego Memphis - Jackson New Orleans - Baton Rouge New York Phoenix Portland San Francisco - Oakland - San Jose St. Louis

Sounds like the problem I have at the gym sometimes. Its an open network with the little 24 hour sign on portal. I noticed one day it wouldn't connect my phone at all. The next day it was fine. The day after that same thing. So I tried something else. I noticed they were using a 192.168.33.x range for IPs with the 192.168.33.1 being the gateway. So I forced my IP to .2 and boom it connected. It confirmed what I thought, they left the default setting of 50 or 100 or whatever it is on the DHCP with a 24 hour lease. So once it filled up the 100 it wouldn't give out anymore IPs until they started falling off.

I believe that would be returned. That's a good bit of bleed over there!

Just aboot time eh?

Is that what happened to your head?

Yep.. Crazy.

Nothing new. All those Samsung handsets run around with Tmobile, AT&T, etc branded signal icons. Even the handsets with only band 25 run around with software for band 41. Being from a software design background I would be surprised to not see this.

That's a lot of snake oil anyways kind of like those crazy priced 100 megabit cable tiers.
