  1. OK I see, in this case I am getting great band 25 reception. the debug number didn't do anything on my phone.
  2. do you have to buy the pro version of signal check? with the free one i cant see band information anywhere
  3. i just flashed and am noticing better reception. I used to never get lte in my room and now i do. How do i check which band i am on?
  4. Do you know where I can find old radios? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  5. so this update contains a patch that enable spark?
  6. yup coming into contact with any NFC chip will make that noise.
  7. I don't see how your phone recognizing the NFC chip in the cards is an issue, that just means the NFC in your phone is working.
  8. Great explanation thanks, I was a bit confused. Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk
  9. Yea I understand that AOSP is stock android with no custom framework but I just didn't understand if there was a difference from the AOSP and stock builds. For instance why is there a 'nexus 5 android development' and a 'nexus 5 original android development'. For HTC development I know this means different roms between Sense and AOSP respectively, but why is this distinction there on nexus phones? Do the kernels work with roms on either forum?
  10. I will be getting my n5 on monday and cant wait to tinker. Can anyone explain to me the difference between stock roms and aosp roms? Also which are you using?
  11. I see I was under the impression that this phone already had the spark update, I didnt do that much research and kind of made an impulse buy due to my old phone breaking. I am not afraid to tinker around and try this but why do you say this is hit and miss? From your own experience?
  12. Just bought a N5 off swappa. Do i need to flash a radio/firmware to get the spark update?
  13. Changing launchers wont help with the pull down menu and that weird green on the toggles. I am not sure if it helps with the lag either.
  14. I am thinking about getting the s5 but have never owned a samsung phone before, I have only played with friends/family's galaxies. Are there ROMs that make touchwiz more streamlined and better looking? I dont want to go AOSP and lose features but I dislike the look of touchwiz.
  15. Sprint has a replaceable sim card and it is unlockable what makes the Verizon unit different? Are you saying Verizon has a unit that is like the nexus 5 where it can run on almost any carrier in the world? Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk
  16. At first I thought this was a cdma issue but Verizon has them?? Could it be a problem with incorporating those with the triband network? Both of those things seem like they would be very useful for people on sprint and its growing network. Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk
  17. is this the only way or is the l720t written under the battery somewhere?
  18. I want to buy an s4t off of Craig's list but no one actually posts which model they have. How can I ask the seller what model they have? Specifically, where can I tell them to look to confirm its an s4t. Thanks in advance! Also anyone willing to sell theirs??? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  19. I can't even flash an Aosp ROM because I can't do without the sense TV app, its incredible. I think it makes our phones much more powerful than other phones. It isn't raved about because people don't know what they are missing out on! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  20. I dont think i can go back to a phone without an IR blaster. The LG G2 should have the same RF performance as the n5 correct? edit: getting mixed reviews from the g2 forum here. I suppose I will wait another year and see whats out. Hopefully the next nexus will have an IR blaster or the m8 shows some promise in the radio performance.
  21. Wish I had the money to upgrade again. Have you ever experienced a nexus 5 or s4? Does the one max rf performance equate with those? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  22. Does anyone know what makes the radio in the HTC one so bad? It seems to always prefer 3g to LTE, I'll be next to a friend with an iPhone on sprint or Galaxy s4 and they will be on LTE and I'll be on 3g. What makes it this way and what should I look out for when I'm buying a new phone? Should I be looking at radios just like we look for SoC chips? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  23. We have recently got LTE in Barstow. I'm pretty stoked and have been trying to map. However whatever areas I map don't show up on the coverage maps. I start sampling and let it run, I don't turn the screen off and I see it running getting samples, then I end. What am I doing wrong that it doesn't show on the coverage map?

  24. I noticed some data outages where I live in Barstow yesterday. Any one know if there is work underway here? It is seriously needed as 3g is worthless here.
  25. I Hope so it's almost unusable where I am (opposite side of town in reference to that tower). Thanks for the insight.
