Just noticed I'm on B25 CA for the first time ever at home. Been having a lot of tower congestion for the past 2-3 months being connected to a GMO site at peak hours. Crews must've came out sometime today, after I made some calls being stuck on 1x a few times this week, being on B25 that became along poor 3G on hand overs. Did my first speed test and got 14.55 Mbps up, and 4.47 Mbps down. Average speeds was always 5 to 6 Mbps up before B25 CA.

Weakest signal I've held onto was -137 dBm on B25.

Any San Diego news or updates?

Fast charging doesn't always work when i plug it in. Is my charger going out or what? I move to other outlets an works sometimes.

I had this issue for a while. I went to Best Buy and bought the Insignia brand cable. Has a nice snug, and still charges fast.

A lot of 3G action throughout North County.

In regards to the link on the quick charger, it says Qualcomm certified but the Note 5 is Exynos!

Are you using the Samsung original charger or a knockoff?May want to try one of these to see if it helps.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QEX83LA/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_1?tag=slicinc-20&ascsubtag=98af82cabc0811e5959c4234b3f23d160000&ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A142BGUZC6UH73

Sorry about the late update. I was using the original charger/usb. A couple of horurs later after this post at work, while trying to charge, I noticed this occured in pic below. Actually burned a little! No damage to my phone, but to the USB. I went out to Best Buy, and bought a Insignia brand USB. No more charging issues since then.

Anyone else having serious charge issues? Last time I've mentioned this, it occurred for just a little while, and ever since then, no issues at all. I even went on a 2 week vacation, worked like new, came back from vacation 2 days ago, no issues until last night. I was down to 16% before I went to bed. Woke up this morning and showed 20% charge. Samsung Health Alert pops up showing "Poor Charging Performance"

 

Should I take my phone into a Sprint store, and have a tech look at it? I don't have any apps that's eating up my battery, screen display isn't ever too bright, and the only app that run the most is SCP running as low as 4-5% battery use majority of the time.

 

Any suggestions is appreciated.

Yeah is pretty damn great. I really want the rift but at $600 I will wait a year or 2 til the prices come back to reality.

 

I've been reading about that, and seen a ton of people saying the same thing. Forget paying $600!

Got my VR a couple of days ago. I'm enjoying every single minute of it!

Any chance you can repost? The pic is so blurry I can't read it.

Not sure why it comes out blurry posting from phone. 

 

I was in Daytona earlier this morning, and got this on B41 to my surprise. Surprised meaning not use to seeing this in San Diego. Don't get me wrong, not complaining one bit, just saying.

 

 

Thanks for the feedback, and info. Very helpful! I'm planning to get one sometime this week.

Your better off online than the store. Trust me. Thats how i got mine.

I noticed yesterday, everyone has them in stock online again. I've read about users being annoyed by pixels while watching Netflix, fogging of lenses, and phone overheating. Have you had any issues?

I'm interested in getting one. I went to Best Buy earlier last week, asked a sales associate if he could help me find one. First thing he said was, "Sorry, but we sold out a while back, and don't know when we'll be getting more." Then he mentioned back orders that will take forever to.

I'm running into an issue where my phone will shut off, won't turn on, I'll plug it in to the fast charger where it will go to, say 8% (these are the numbers from my last experience), I'll turn it on and it says I have 23%.  I'm about to bring it in to have it looked at and have a new battery installed.

I have been experiencing those same exact numbers to.

 

is SCP's location feature turned on and set to high accuracy? that can drain battery.  Otherwise try changing your cable, a cable that's dying can prevent proper charging

SCP isn't set at high accuracy at all. Since mentioning this earlier this morning, SCP has used 10% battery. Right now I'm at 14% overall. Before these issues, I'm usually anywhere from 45%-55% at 14hrs.

Wireless charging or wired charging?  Last night, my wireless charging cut out but I know it's not the charger.  Very weird?!?!  Maybe it was just a fluke and the phone was off a bit, but I'm pretty careful with putting it down at night.  FWIW, my wife's S6 has had the same behavior too, so it could be a bug in all Samsung's latest software/security fixes.

 

I have been getting the notification that the Fly Delta app has been causing slow behavior and Samsung wanted me to uninstall it.  But it's not draining any battery for me, so I'm not sure.  

 

Yes, my battery has been draining really fast the past week, not sure what's up, maybe a change in Google Play Services??

 

It's wired charging for me. Also have scroll lag. I hope this gets fixed.

I've been having some serious battery drainage, and charging issues. When charging, I hardly get full charges. Around 9pm last night, I had 16% battery left, wake up this morning I have 88%. Anyone else experiencing this? It's been like this for the past couple of days. And I always get the Samsung+ health alert a lot, in response to this. It scans and says everything is fine. Could it be an app? Yesterday Signal Check was eating 23%. The day before, voicemail was 16%, etc......

Not sure if this device has been mentioned on the boards, but was wondering if anyone used this device with their Note 5 and/or S6's? If so, do you like it, or dislike it?

I've been seeing it for a good while my way.

 

The latest iOS update brought with it v23.1 of the Sprint carrier settings and a new PRL. Those combined seemed to give me 1-2 bars of B25 LTE in my living room for a few minutes after updating last night but I can't seem to duplicate it now. 

 

I also got that new PRL on my Note 5. Service at home is way better. That's because Sprint techs came out, and tuned the tower up about a week ago, due to over capacity. Tech I was on phone with about 2 weeks ago, said he entered codes into the system to prioritize my phone to get the best signal/service when it gets way too crowded.

Mine has been doing it. Everything is on, including international for some odd reason. And it keeps setting itself to Automatic in roaming network setting.

Anything new in San Diego?

Marci Carris and her team hooked me up! Got 2 tickets!

I won movie tickets, but when it came to the screen that said, "Claim my offer" I entered my phone # and zip, clicked, and nothing went through. It kept loading, stopped, clicked claim my offer again, and nothing. I called a Sprint rep, he looked into it, and didn't see anything, and pretty much said too bad. Yes, I did it on my phone, and took screenshots. It didn't do this when I got the free Amazon Prime.

Not sure if this was mentioned here, but just now seeing this offer for loyal customers.
