I didn't see a write up on the wall for this phone yet. Realizing it hasn't been released, are there any early indications of the radio performance on the sprint network?

about 6 months ago I had the same problem which was producing blurry photos. I brought it to a sprint repair store who told me that it's not covered by warranty and that they would have to send it in for repair which may or may not be covered. Instead of dealing with that idiot I went to another sprint repair store. the guy there took my phone, tried updating something, did some testing and came back to me saying that it is a free replacement. I bought mine at release and with further research it appears on early released phones there was a film on the front of the camera lens that was sometimes peeling off and causing blurry photos. hopefully that helps.

It also automatically popped up on my wife's and my phone yesterday.

I am currently connected to Movistar in Mexico. To do so I went to settings -> Mobile data -> Network mode -> select GSM/UMTS only. Then Available GSM Networks -> Select automatically. It took a moment to register with Movistar, but once it did it automatically connects after airplane mode toggles or restarting the device. When in Brazil it was the same process to connect to Vivo. I was able to enable from my account on the sprint site without calling. After checking my usage from the sprint site, IVR data and texts are accurately reflected without additional charges. In addition, wifi calling worked and was reflected in my usages accurately w/o additional charges.

Either way I am not surprised they are delayed.

I'm on ED 1500 and added a line last year. Amazon had a good deal on an htc m8 with a 2 yr service agreement, so I did that. In the process it changed my whole plan to My Way. After a call to sprint they were able to switch me back to my ED plan without much hassle.

My phone was getting laggy and not as responsive. That is now history with 5.0.1. It is snappy and everything so far has loaded faster.

Not likely considering that lollipop is still in the integration phase and hasn't even started the certification phase.

Anyone else feel like this storm has caused incredible overreaction. I never had a rain day for school. The mid-west and east coast must be laughing at California right now.

1 drink for everyone. Rumors started for the ICS update to be released in early December. After multiple iterations of releasing for testing and back to lab to make fixes, the update didn't go live until January. In the forum they made a whole drinking game based on release date predictions and rumors started.

Anyone remember what this would have meant on the Evo 4G LTE update rules from android central?

This sounds like the problem of being too good at your job, where people have high expectations of you. Some may not realize that you do this for fun and that it is on the side of a big boy job and raising a family.

I found b26 at the Oakland Coliseum, near south hayward bart station and at my home in Fremont. Looks like they "flipped the switch" on the east bay. Next step, b26 optimization.

This was taken from within the 24 Hour Fitness on Auto Mall Pkwy in Fremont. Once I went outside I switched to b41.

Or u can take 101 and get some delicious tri-tip at my old stomping grounds at San Luis Obispo's Firestone Grill or Jocko's in Nipomo.

Most iphone users won't even know the difference between Network Vision improved EV-DO and LTE when streaming music or checking email.

I had the same experience in my house last week. My phone for the first time connected to a b41 site that was supposed to be online in May. It stayed connected for the next day and after that I am back to 3G. I was excited because that clear tower filled in the sprint coverage gap my house resides in. I think this is partly leading to my poor battery life. The other is at work there is a 3G accepted tower across the street from my building, but instead my phone connects to a distant LTE tower with one or two bars of service.

Well those that advertise the most, must be the best. Just like how if it's printed on the internet it must be true.

I leave tomorrow for south america and remembered hearing something about making free international calls over wifi. Don't think that is enabled yet, but I will know for sure soon.

downloading now after checking for software update. 603.46MB

At this point I do not care whether it is clear band 41, band 25, or band 26, as long as it is LTE. The legacy evdo is killing me in the city.

This a great news considering tri-band LTE devices will now have access to band 41 LTE in the city.

So at Giants games I usually just use the stadium wifi due to a lack of accepted NV sites, but I forgot to connect to it this time. I was on 3G when i got there, but then out of no where my phone switched to band 41 LTE and stayed for a while. I'm hoping this means SF is closer to a cluster launch of NV equipment.

Guilty as charged. B25 depends on where u are in the stadium. It has been much more stable than 3g when u can find it, but i would keep falling back to 3g. Enjoy the game. Hopefully the yankees didn't see Cespedes cannon for an arm against the angels and will try running on him.
