    Downloading it went smooth for for me. My phone seems to respond quicker. I am looking forward to the battery life improvements!

    I have heard at the end of Q3 Sprint will start deploying a second B25 carrier. So, it will not be 10x10, but Orlando will have 2 5x5 carriers which will most definitely help!!!!

    you are most picking up the macro site outside of Universal.... should be better by the end of the year

    Upgrading the DAS in Universal is a current priority for the market. Hopefully it's completed by the end of the year.

    I am having the opposite experience. My phone lasts me a whole day. My phone will have between 15-20% and my watch has about 30% battery life before I put them to charge at night (around 9:30). I know everyone is having mixed experiences with the Apple Watch, which is unfortunate.

    I have the 42mm Apple Watch Stainless steel. I received it on April 24th and it has met my expectations so far. The biggest benefit to me is that the battery life on my phone has increased by 20-30%, since I now view all my notifications and use apple pay on my watch. It also eliminated the need to wear an UP Band. Besides that it nice to be able to check the weather, stocks, Twitter etc. without having to take my phone out of my pocket. I know some think it is over priced, but the design, build and functionality warrents the price IMO. If your someone who never wears a watch I understand the hesitation. However, if you wear/collect watches I suggest entertaining the idea. Especially for power phone users!

    It was a very rare error and that is why you are being told to swap your ESN. Currently no handset on any of Sprint's prepaid brands can be used on postpaid. I honestly don't see them changing that anytime soon.

    Leasing is not that bad. It is $0 (well qualified buyer) upfront and you pay reduced monthly rate and no taxes on the device. Now if you really want to keep the phone after the lease term you can just pay the remainder of the ful SRP price. Like someone posted earlier most people live check to check and if they can save $15 a month, why not?

    I agree! That is why currently Sprint's prepaid brands have not released a single band LTE handset since early 2014. The point you made is part of the reason why they re released a tri-band Galaxy SIII. Currently (with the expception of the LG F3) Sprint does not offer any single band handsets in their retail distribution points. They do have some single band EOL handsets on the web, but that's to clear inventory.

    Many countries in South America (which Brightstar has a strong presence) use CDMA on 800/1900. Brightstar can refurbish these handsets and re-distribute them to those countries. The LTE bands may not be compatible, but many of these countries are not even opporating LTE services out side of major cities, if at all. Brightstar also plays a part in recycling used/defected Sprint handset. Behind the scenes, Brightar's synergies with Sprint is helping the Sprint be a profitable company again. You may not here about them, but they play a huge part (e.i. IPhone for life)

    I see your point now. However, Sprint still pushes older/used phones to it's prepaid brands. They are just choosing the devices wisely. For example just recently they re-SKU'd LG G2's (all colors) to Boost Mobile, to move inventory. It was a success! SPG (Sprint Prepaid Group) only wants to offer devices that offer the best user experience. Back to your point, with BrightStar now under the Soft Bank umbrella, I am sure they are assisting in moving returned and older devices. Sprint also uses pre-owned phones as retention offers to customers who threaten to cancel because of not having insurance or not being upgrade eligible. I am confident with the new CEO he is doing everything to reduce loses.

    Why is it a bad idea for tri-band devices to be sold on Sprint Prepaid brands? Sprints Prepaid brands (Boost Mobile, Virgin Mobile USA, Sprint Prepaid) represent over 14 million subs. Thats a 1/4 of Sprints customer base. I feel it is important that anyone one Sprints network have the same experience. If not, they would be losing more subs than they already have.

    Good luck!
  14. GFRESSE
    Yes! I'm confident if/when the tower on top of the Radisson is upgraded we will notice a HUGE improvement!

    In Maitland @ Jeremiah's Ices on May 1st...
  16. GFRESSE
