Based on todays 11.5 hour usage. Phone is definitely working better, at least the apps that i use frequently. As far as battery goes, i am left with 22% after 11.5 hour usuage. 2 gmail, 1 exchange emails synching heavily throughout the day. Watched video for about 2 hours. Game playing for 1.5 hours. And about 1 hour gps/map usage. I have to say i am more than pleased with the update. I love how switching between app is so much quicker. I just hope that this doesnt turn out like the last update. Things were great for me for first few weeks, and then i started having reboot issue.. keeping my fingers crossed. Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

The phone seems much more snappier than before. Will need to use it through out the day to have a valid opinion on the update. But so far so good. Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

Just read a post on xda. This is indeed 5.1.1 update. People are confirming upgrade to 5.1.1 Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

Unfortunately no mention of 5.1.1 Unless its embedded under new and or enhanced features. Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

Personally, i didnt have a single gps problem until the latest update. Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

Any one having gps lock problem with the latest update? I know it did not change anything as far as the radio goes. But i am definitely having more gps lock issue than before. Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

Can i get it?? Thank you.

Just noticed that ##debug# doesnt require 777468 code anymore.

Ive seen a lot of them reporting good result upon factory reset. It might not be an option for many people. But if you are having a lot of problems with it, maybe factory reset will resolve the issues. Just gotta wait and see.

I believe he was saying that speakerphone quality is nad while on wifi calling. Cant comment as I have not used speakerphone while on wifi calling. Ill test it out next time I use wifi calling

No. when i use locate me to enter the address, it gets the correct location from gps (Seoul). I just found out that i am able to receive a call on wifi. But unable to make outbound call. Is there a certain dialing pattern im supposed to use when making a call on wifi from abroad?

No. Sprint clearly states that international wifi calling being available here (south korea, not on unavail list). It does not require that the location have sprint service. Wifi calling is to use sprint service at a location where you have weak sprint signal or none at all. They only have a list of countries where you are unable to use it. As far as activation, yes i have activated it abroad. I will call them up to find out if they can get this setup for me.

I need help with wifi calling. I am abroad right now. And i have activated wifi calling on my account and have it correctly setup on my phone. I wven have the handset and signal level icon on left top of the screen. Whenever i try to make a call, as soon as click on dial button, call screen turns orange and "wifi call ended". Any suggestion on how to get this to work? Thanks in advance.

Why does your status bar show you being connected to 3G, not LTE?

Yeah. Its every 1:28. Ive read about the issue with S5. And even saw the report to google. it doesnt look too promising, as the first report was more than 6-7 months ago. And S5 users are still having the problem.

I hear you. Who knows, maybe sprint will make that designation once they deploy it to enough markets.If you ask me, they should make it an indicator for band 41. As band 26 really doesnt differ that much from band 25.

My experience is that as long as you are connected to LTE and using data, it spins. And I am connected to band 25 95% of the time.

Question on youtube. Whenever i watch anything on youtube, @ 1:28 mark, the video freezes, but the sound continues to play. Only way to get the video to play again is to jump to different time, but it freezes again after 1:28. Has anyone experienced this?

I would hate to see this happen as well. Just from the visual perspective, I hate the magenta T logo.

just wanted to chime in and say that for some reason, south station area speed dropped, since about two weeks ago. It averaged between 0.8 - 1.5 but for last two weeks, the best Ive seen was 1.3, with average being around 0.5. I wonder if this is due to them working on the towers. Im going to guess that this is the tower I am connecting to @ south station: BS23XC744 42.35420522622506, -71.05929612952458, 4-20 Chauncy St, Boston, MA 02111, USA Sprint Market: Boston NV Complete: 3G/4G OEM: ALU RF Switch: BOS-WOBURN-MSC_1 Any info on this???

Aside from the update, you need to make sure your phone is in LTE mode as well. If you haven’t changed this, the phone ships with CDMA only setting. Settings>More Settings>Mobile networks>Network mode>LTE/CDMA After this, your phone will restart and find 4G LTE as long as you are within the covered area

Just ran a speed test @ south station. Avg. 1.5 down .9 up. (eHRPD) Last time I ran it which was towards beginning of this week, it was connected Evdo Rev A. Actual speed did not change from when it was connecting Evdo. But glad to see another eHRPD site up and running.

I use GS3 daily, but I dont have any problem with the battery. I use the phone with wifi on all the time, sync 4 email address, text, phone calls, web surfing and on a 12 hour day, I am left with anywhere between 30-50% depending on how heavy the usage was. With light usage, same setting: wifi emails not as much texting and calls; after 30 hours, my phone was sitting at 24%. yup, as irev mentioned, distinct differences of the two are: 1. removable/non-removable battery edited: sorry, evo lte does have micro sd slot, I wanted to mention the kickstand, not micro sd

I am loggin somewhere between 1.3 to 2 Mbps down,, and around 1Mbps up @ south station. I saw this kind of results for last week or two. Hopefully we will continue to see expansion of NV sites in downtown boston area.
