  1. I have the same constrains as you on the T-Mobile and Starlink offerings. Have somewhat reasonable service from Charter. VDSL from AT&T is maintained purely for redundancy purposes and would be the one I would switch. Would be awesome if they upgraded it to fiber, but that remains just a dream. The one area I have not tried is IPv6 VPN. Have any others used this on T-Mobile's WISP offering?
  2. Mike, in case you are feeling lucky, I sent in diags when on n41 from my s21 ultra U1 (factory unlocked) which can still use samsung band selector app. Both *#0011* and cellmapper can see the n41. The s22+ U1 has T-Mobile esim and USMobile (Verizon) psim. Cellmapper can see both, but often gets confused in the carrier display. The latest production SCP can not see the Verizon network. Did notice no web update in production version so maybe other differences? Thanks. Edit: I also sent diags in on the s22+ with two networks.
  3. It works on the Samsung Galaxy A32 5g , which was one of the "free" T-Mobile 5g phones, and also the factory unlocked firmware. Thanks for all your hard work Mike.
  4. More clearly stated here: https://www.theverge.com/2022/12/13/23506626/t-mobile-5g-1900mhz-pcs-carrier-aggregation-sprint-3g-lte
  5. I reread everthing and can see where you are coming from. Some aspects are definately foward looking: “We’re rapidly executing on our vision to deliver the highest capacity network this country has ever seen". I need to test on a s22, but that phone is currently not available to me for a few more days.
  6. A reverse compliment for T-Mobile: https://www.rcrwireless.com/20221212/carriers/kagan-what-verizon-and-att-should-learn-from-t-mobile-us
  7. https://www.fiercewireless.com/5g/qualcomm-boosts-mmwave-coverage-compact-macro-cell-site Promises up to 240% increase in coverage area.
  8. Much like 2.5Ghz years ago, mmWave is often derided for its weak coverage. Can't go through glass, only covers a block outside etc. Personally I expect it to get much better over time. This thread is based on that premise. Some of the mmWave bands also have licensing buildout requirements, which should help push this trend.
  9. I have it on my a32 5g factory unlocked. Even works with Tello, at least for tracking.
  10. I am going to side with T-Mobile on this one on lumping n25 with n41. Outdoors band footprint can be slightly bigger than band 41. Don't forget when comparing the two that their are two sides of the FDD n25 bandwidth versus just one timed on TDD n41. n25 also brings greater upload speeds. I have not checked recently, but in some portions of the country T-Mobile has 40Mhz of band 25 iirc. So it does add a few lanes to the very wide n41 freeway. As far as nationwide, don't forget the G-block, which will be used with the Space-X satellites.
  11. SpaceX files FCC request to add T-Mobile hardware to 2,016 Starlink satellites to beam service directly to smartphones: https://www.tesmanian.com/blogs/tesmanian-blog/fcc-t-mobile Lots of good details to digest.
  12. https://www.motorola.com/us/smartphones-moto-g-stylus-5g-gen-2/p?ds_rl=1288503&ds_rl=1242193&ds_rl=1260444&ds_rl=1260444&ds_rl=1288503&gclid=Cj0KCQiA1sucBhDgARIsAFoytUtwUjIWW5MB2dIqYYjPGR7oEGK6QleFyUSWsdIynrQlPbw3SSJGbMcaAklgEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds&skuId=781 This 2022 phone has some weird issues. Actually bought the 2021 version a few months ago for T-Mobile network use because it has n25 which the 2022 lacks. 2022 has reported issues with T-Mobile LTE. Lacks band 14 support for AT&T (has n14). Boost is listed as not supported. VoNR support is not listed. https://www.reddit.com/r/motorola/comments/yx2nwl/does_the_moto_stylus_5g_2022_support_vonr/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button The Samsung s23 has not listed n70 support so far in the FCC filings but should support two active esims plus a psim. Project Genesis reportedly uses an esim and a psim in the s22. In the last quarterly q & a, there were comments about upselling phones to support their new network in 2023. Perhaps this is what this new service is really all about.
  13. They demand an e-mail address that you don't use with an existing Boost Mobile account. They look at Experian credit, which you must unlock if you locked it because of T-Mobile negligence or any one of several other large Corp security breaches.
  14. S21 esim not supported at all on Sprint billing.
  15. Strange that they require a credit check before they will tell you if your BYOD phone is acceptable. None of the phones they sell appears to support n70.
  16. I prefer the term "spaghetti code". Typically easier to recode from scratch than to attempt fixes. Personally think T-Mobile is making a mistake by not throwing more consultants at it, myth of the man month considerations aside. T-Mobile should at least ask for customers who want to be converted sooner and use them as beta testers.
  17. Could be a good fit for T-Mobile. AT&T is heavily invested in Fiber To The Home. The spectrum alone is worth money. If management/major shareholder have hubris, it will likely need to go bankrupt first. Some argue that it should have gone with more markets at once to get scale. That would have resulted in faster bankruptcy. Basically timing is everything in business.
  18. Some of the other plans have been throttled, like the ED1500. Fixes ultimately came, but it took several years iirc. I moved on to the Sprint Max. One of my hopes was I would get the billing transition sooner. Nope. Wonder if they are going after the static IP. Likely work around is VPN, especially with a smaller more obscure service. Rumor has been T-Mobile would start transitioning Sprint Billing customers in earnest next quarter -- wait, isn't that always the promise?
  19. Any word on how SCP works with lineageos 19 on a oneplus nord n200 5g? Alternatively, how does the modem option work with rooted Android 11 on the same device? Maybe it has been depreciated in the past given the APIs. But since those are failing with NSA was planning to revisit the rooted modem options.
  20. https://www.fiercewireless.com/wireless/boost-mobile-offers-sim-kits-7-eleven-stores-nationwide?itm_source=parsely-api This could mean an upgrade of Boost Mobiles lowest locations.
  21. https://www.fiercewireless.com/wireless/fcc-grants-first-batch-25-ghz-licenses-minus-t-mobile Does not include T-Mobile for whatever reason. "51 of the 68 total long-form applications". Miller, David is one of the finalized winners in Ohio. Could just be a speculator. Edit: More details on David Miller from FCC filing: I certify that as the date of this additional supplemental filings that I have not entered into jointventures, partnerships, agreements, or understandings of any kind with any party related to thelicenses in my application.While I currently have no specific plans for the licenses, I may elect to partner with WirelessInternet Service Providers (WISP) in eventually selling the licenses or considering joint venturesthat aid in their ability to provide service. Secondly, I will likely consider selling the licenses totelecommunication service providers as they seek to consolidate their holdings in thisfrequency band. I have no understandings or agreements with such providers or serviceproviders at this point as outlined above.
  22. Not seeing n70 in the S23 series FCC certifications (posted in S23 thread).
