It was addressed in the video presentation and it’s open to any provider that’s willing to negotiate reciprocal roaming agreements.

The presentation said "most" devices currently in service will work so it's not tied to 5G. I'll defer to the experts for the real answer. edit: I found this https://www.rcrwireless.com/20220826/network-infrastructure/t-mobile-us-starlink-announce-spectrum-sharing-deal which says Starlink V2 will be 5G. Also specifically says it will work with 5G phones.

Frome here: https://www.theverge.com/2022/8/24/23320133/spacex-starlink-t-mobile-connectivity-5g-satellite-elon-musk This: Perhaps it’s a spectrum announcement of some kind? A partnership to strengthen both Starlink’s sometimes-overloaded satellite internet connections in rural areas and T-Mobile’s home internet product that doesn’t have quite enough coverage? A SpaceX deal for T-Mobile subscribers?

Saw this on Reddit: T-Mobile will soon pay you to get off your Sprint SIM Card

It would be great if they increased the domestic roaming allowance on non preferred partner systems. What is it? 200Mb? You can burn through that in minutes with Apple Carplay or Android Auto.

Sprint Legacy Video Throttling Fixed

Another 3G network shutdown delay. 2 mos. T-Mobile Delays Final Sprint 3G CDMA Shutdown Once Again This is almost as difficult as getting Enterprise work off of a Mainframe. Update: Article now reflects the "Phased Shutdown" process.

Apparently T-Mobile is no longer requiring Sprint Customers change their plans. https://tmo.report/2022/01/exclusive-t-mobile-wont-make-sprint-customers-change-their-plan/ Maybe of interest as well: https://tmo.report/2022/01/exclusive-internal-slide-confirms-t-mobiles-migration-schedule-for-sprint-customers/

Forever the optimist. 🙃

If you're address is served you can get T-Mobile Home Internet for $50/Mo (w/Autopay) and that's truly unlimited but technically is suppose to only be used at your address. I think that's a 911 thing.

Aren’t hotspots on max limited to 40GB per month?

Cuba City, Wi. iPhone 13 shows roaming on US Cellular, Speedtest shows as T-Mobile. Everywhere in far NW Il. And SW Wi. Has excellent coverage.

Saw this on top of the convent in Sinsinawa, Wi. At first I thought is was a cell tower now I am not so sure. Any insight appreciated. J

As T-Mobile US migrates Sprint customers, the CEO sees a ‘fantastic tailwind’ https://www.rcrwireless.com/20210927/5g/as-t-mobile-us-migrates-sprint-subs-the-ceo-sees-a-fantastic-tailwind?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+rcrwireless%2FsLmV+(RCR+Wireless+News)

I got excited when I heard the iPhone 13 would support 2 eSIMs. What I didn't realize it's an either or situation. The first SIM slot is either a physical SIM or an eSIM but not both at the same time. I erroneously assumed I could use a physical SIM and also the 2 eSIMs concurrently. Wrong.

Is there a cheatsheet somewhere that explains what the important indicators are and why I might want to watch them?

Field Engineering has a totally different look and feel but seems to work. Not that I understand 99.9% of it. 🤒

Not sure if this is old news. Official T-Mobile Network shutdown dates: T-Mobile 3G UMTS: July 1, 2022 T-Mobile 2G GSM: December 2022 Sprint 2G/3G CDMA: January 1, 2022 Sprint LTE/5G: June 30, 2022 https://www.tmonews.com/2021/09/t-mobile-unveils-official-network-shutdown-dates/

Agreed. I thought of the old adage “Fool me once shame on you …”. My Postpaid plan was not affected but my ancient but still active iPad Free 200mb for life plan was and I received notification.

I'm on T-Mobile and have 8 lines. All but the last (newest) line have outgoing Caller ID that works correctly. The newest line only displays City and State if I call other than another T-Mobile phone. I've tried calling AT&T U-Verse VoIP, Verizon and AT&T POTS lines. All display only CIty, State. Calling T-Mobile phones displays my first and last name as I would want/expect. Using this tool: https://apeiron.io/cnam I can see this line has City, State the other seven show First, Last Name. I've called T-Mobile support and they say their system shows the caller ID info was updated. If I use My T-Mobile (App or Web Site) Caller ID does get updated if I change it but only T-Mobile phones see the correct First, Last Name displayed. Everyone else gets City, State. It's as if the CNAM database isn't getting updated but only for this one particular line my other 7 lines are fine. I don't claim to understand all the nuances of Caller ID but I would like to get T-Mobile to act on this inconsistency. Any suggestions on how to proceed would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, James

I moved my 4 line ED1500 over a year ago to Magenta. Later I upgraded to MAX for the full function Scam Shield and larger Netflix subsidy. I get my iPhones direct from Apple so loosing the purchased phone subsidy wasn’t a big deal. Service here in Chitown is every bit as good as it was on Sprint IMO. The only thing I miss is the way Sprint handled Apple Watch service activation and deactivation. On Sprint it was fully automatic through the Web site. Not so with T-Mobile. Deactivating an Apple Watch requires calling and dealing with support/retentions.

I picked up the tip on Reddit.

The FAST app from Netflix will show if you are throttled. When I was throttled it showed about 1.5Mbs now it shows 150Mbs+.
