And the 2-yr contract option is now gone from Best Buy. If you're on the ED1500 plan, you can still do 2-yr upgrades and get a phone at a discount and not have to pay the $25 subsidy fee. Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk -

Are you a Sprint shareholder? Why do you hate the subsidy model so much? Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk -

Someone said that as of Oct 1st Best Buy will stop the 2-yr upgrades but it's still available as of a minute ago. Hope that info was wrong & it's not really going away at Best Buy. Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk -

Did a 2-yr upgrade at Best Buy last Saturday. They tried to get me to switch to a different plan but I firmly said no. Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk -
It does but it was still a hassle for me. And the battery life anxiety. I second the call for Galaxy S7 at least. Water resistance, better camera, and microSD support is great. I sold mine not too long ago. Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk

Only weak point for me was the so-so battery life. Otherwise, it's fast, light, easy to one-hand, and great. Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk

Sprint created plans like ED1500 b/c it made good business sense at the time when they did b/c their network was a lot more inferior back then. I switched over from T-Mobile to Sprint in 2012 only b/c of that plan. If there are certain individuals on these legacy plans who "abuse" it, all Sprint needs to do is throttle them down after a certain cutoff point after proper disclosure. That way they can both keep their existing customers and ensure good service for the others. Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk -

@troyd96 I'm in a similar situation as you and I'd love it too if Sprint would let us keep our ED1500 plan and the 2-yr subsidies. I have a 23% corporate discount and with a total of 4 lines, I pay ~$200 per month after all fees & taxes. We don't use much data - less than 10 GB per month on average.

My favorite thing about Android 7.0 so far is that the swipe down for notification gesture in Nova launcher finally works properly now. Looking forward to finding out how well the new Doze works. Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk

I visited San Diego on Thurs & Fri on a mini trip and I was pleasantly surprised by the improvements Sprint had made for LTE coverage. I had access to band 41 at most locations and at those few locations where I only got band 25, the speeds were pretty decent. Another thing I appreciated was having unlimited data. I was using my Nexus 5X to play YouTube videos for my 1-yr old on Thurs and Fri and in 2 days I blew past by my 5gb limit on my AT&T Straight Talk plan (before the trip, I had 4gb left on my allowance).

Yes, if you pay full price. But not all bands may be enabled bc it will have a Sprint rom. At least, that is the case with the Sprint GS7 Edge. Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk

Hopefully the 2-yr subsidies will continue at Best Buy. If they won't, I'll probably leave Sprint for AT&T. Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk -
How do you know this? Has there been an announcement about the U version? Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk

Today is day 2 on the 935U rom and I can report the battery life is better. Unfortunately,however, flashing the 935U rom doesn't actually DSU the phone. I tried with my AT&T SIM card & I got an Invalid SIM message. There is no detriment to voice, text, and data services. Carrier aggregation works as before on the Sprint rom & the speeds are the same.

I'm currently on the Unlocked 935U rom & so far so good. Here's more info about it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3412265 Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk

On my Sprint GS7E, it didn't fix anything for me but it did improve my battery life a bit. Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk

The update seems like another good one. My phone's been off the charger for 13 hrs & 19 mins and I'm at 40%battery left with 3 hrs 19 mins SOT. Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk
