  1. Yep, I do. Or try. Without cable or satellite its nice for ESPN.
  2. Anyone have any idea why Sprint TV isn't allowed on the Nexus 5? Maybe it is and I'm missing something. I thought all Sprint users were paying in part to have that feature.
  3. I'm just happy to see it working well in some areas, despite not working too well in other areas. I expected those speeds only on Salt Lake still but the fact that I picked it up this well in Riverton inside a Taco Bell was very pleasant. After my previous phone I'm happy to get anything above 1-2 mbps.
  4. Is there a default voice mail for the Nexus 5 or is Google Voice the only way to go?
  5. While at Kearns High School this morning for a dance recital with full 4G. This is a screen shot from later today with WiFi on. The result doesn't show whether it was 4G or 3G. However, the antenna logo next to the date shows that it was through Sprint. You'll just have to take my word for it. Also, signals can sometimes be bad in buildings but the 4G was strong all through the school.
  6. I just got the MSL code for my phone to enable all the bands on my Nexus 5. Are there priorities with the bands that work better than others?

  8. I agree completely. If they can complete the network rollout by early to mid Dec I'm fine with crappy service until then.
  9. FYI - We went to get my wife's phone upgraded and while there I mentioned to the guy that my signal wasn't working even though it has been fine for the past few days. He mentioned that Sprint is going to be pretty bad in the next 10 or so days because they're doing the final push to get 4G LTE up and running. I guess a lot of people have called to complain about their service. After about Dec 10 the the network should be working and we'll see download speeds up to about 10-15 mbps. Makes sense as a few big clients in Utah have threatened to leave Sprint if 4G isn't finished by the end of the year. Here's hoping for patience within the next week and a half an an awesome signal by the end of the year.
  10. It's seriously pretty sweet. I have a Nexus 10 so I'm pretty used to the layout and stuff. It's really weird getting a consistent signal when driving around and to have it respond. Feels like I got out of an abusive relationship with the Samsung GS2. I have to thank this forum for guiding me in the right direction.
  11. So my good news is I went and upgraded to the LG Nexus 5 and though Sprint has some time before LTE is fully rolled out, I finally have a phone that's decent and picks up the signal pretty well. It's crazy what a better phone can do.
  12. How can the bands be played with on the Nexus 5? I just got it and I'm still trying to figure it out.
  13. Will there be any Black Friday discounts for the Nexus 5?
  14. Also, does anyone know if Sprint will be offering any discounts on the nexus 5 for black Friday? I was going to wait for a sales discount but they don't seem to offer one for that phone.
  15. Honestly, that's like the first time the 4g wimax had ever worked. I've been using the 3g all along.
  16. Gotcha, that's still fast for my phone considering I can't even connect to wimax. Now I'm excited to get an lte phone. I'll refrain from posting anymore wimax photos as they won't do anyone any good.
  17. This is the speed test from Orem in front of UVU. First time I've ever had my 4G working on my phone. It's showing 3G but this is a screen shot from a minute or two ago with 3G on at the moment.
  18. Someday I'll figure out how to post pics on here to prove it. Maybe I can do it tomorrow.
  19. I was in front of UVU the other night going to school and tried flipping on the 4G for the fun of it. Not only did it go on but a speed test pulled in about 5 mbps DL. I was shocked and it got me excited for what will come to southwest Salt Lake valley.
  20. That being said, I'll probably wait until the Black Friday sales to find the phones for a lower price. Pretty ridiculous.
  21. I called Sprint to find out the in store prices for phones and how they compare. The rep said their online prices are lower due to online savings and then said those prices are also only for new customers and don't apply to existing customers. I've had store reps give me incorrect info before and wanted to see if this was the case. Does Sprint truly cater toward new customers with deeper discounts more than existing customers? This seems very backward as Sprint should want people to stay with them. Your thoughts?
  22. This is weird. This is at home with my Airrave on. Can that affect the speed tests? I know it affects the bars but the test has never really been this high. Is this a sign of the times? Test results: 182 ms 2.41 mbps 0.49 mbps Not sure how to add pics to posts yet.
