  1. Please, please tell me exactly how I would deactivate the integration?
  2. I know many will respond that everything is perfect with their phone. But, I am wondering why does my phone take quite a while from the time I hit the dial button to the actual time it starts to ring? Sometimes it can take 25 seconds, sometimes, it doesn't ring out at all then I say something such as "hello" and my voice echo's back and sometimes it just has a long delay then ends the attempt of the call. The most common issue is the loooong delay from the time I hit dial to an actual ring occurs. Lastly, this has not JUST started. I believe it all started once I received the Spark update. It could of been before that but I think it start with the update that brought Spark.
  3. Anyone else having an issue with knock on since the KitKat update? Before the update, I would double tap and phone would turn on like it is supposed to do. Since KitKat it is not as responsive. I have to hit the scrren sometimes 4 times beefore turning on.
  4. I thought with KitKat we would be able to utilize the entire screen for viewing disappearing buttons). I am using the stock browser and the buttons are still there. Whats the deal?
  5. I still don't have my KitKat update. I want it to just ask me to download like normal, I do not want to skip the proper steps. I know when the updates started, but, what is the stretch that they will sent the updates to everyone? What is the maximum I will need to wait?
  6. Would it be recommended to do two hard resets back to back after the KitKat update, just to be sure everything is smooth?
  7. I want to do exactly what you did after I receive my KK update. When you stated you did a couple of hard resets after the update, do you literally mean a couple as in two hard resets back to back?
  8. Has the KK update helped with call reception? My call reception is horrible and I am hopeful the KK update will fix this.
  9. Before the kit kat update was your outbound call connection deathly slow? As mine are and I hope after Kit Kat my out bound calls will be instant like yours.
  10. We of course will never get 4.4.3. But, there are some interesting "fixes" that are rumored for 4.4.3 http://www.phonearena.com/news/Details-surface-about-Android-4.4.3_id54512 1) Camera Focus......Never really an issue with me but it seems a lot of people has camera focus problems with the G2 in low light, I thought that 4.4.2 fixed that problem? Maybe it did not. 2) Data connection dropouts.........It seems quite a few of us also have this issue with the G2, I was hopeful 4.4.2 would fix that but maybe not as much as we hoped. 3) Random Reboots.....Someone on here downloaded an unofficial 4.4.2 and if I remember correctly he stated it is a welcome update other than random reboots. I hope this is not a real strong issue with 4.4.2 The other "fixes" do not jump out at me but check out the link.
  11. ^I was the one that brought it up. I am just like you, terribly slow 3G speeds since the Spark update.
  12. Do you also find 3G is much slower now then before the Spark update?
  13. Since the Spark update, I for one, believe the radio is worse. Far worse. I receive 3G when others receive LTE all the time. Also, there is no comparison between 3G before the Spark update and after the Spark update. After the Spark update, 3G is extremely sloooooow. Slow as a snail.
  14. I think what you are saying will work. Please help me confirm what you mean 1) Let phone run down till it shuts down 2) Fully charge phone This is where I am a little confused: "powered down then restarted it and ran it till shutdown again. Restart and charge full again" Can you break down the steps I quoted a little better? Please.
  15. ^Very cool video and it seems the G2 is even going to be faster than it already is. For the test they first did a factory reset. First thing I will do after the KitKat is downloaded is then do a factory reset. I also hope the 4.4.2 update fixes the battery problem
  16. I used to come home and have 76%-78% and that is from 6:00am when I take it off the charger to 6:00pm when I come home. Since this Spark update, I get home and the battery icon is orange, begging to be charged. I know the Spark kicked in two more antenna's and now it is tri-band, which is most likely the reason for a HUGH difference in battery length. Is this something that can be corrected with a software update or it is just the world we have to live in since tri-band is now enabled on the phone?
  17. I am located in the Hendersonville/Asheville North Carolina area. I really doubt that I am in a Spark area.
  18. YES, battery drain issue is huge after this Spark update. In addition, my phone now gets warm/hot which is NEVER did before.
  19. You all are veterans, How long after you see something like the above link does the update start coming out?
  20. So, I'm good then? I do not want to go in the edit menu as I do not want to adjust anything, just keep it as Sprint intended. The reason I checked is a lot mentioned that after the update the bands were still not enabled. But, my phone is completely good and how sprint wanted it and all bands are enabled, correct? Thank you
  21. I just did the above instructions and I do not see Band 25..... I see LTE Enable/Disable (Enable), Band26 Enable/Disable (Enable), and Band41 Enable/Disable (Enable) Does "LTE Enable/Disable" mean Band25? As I do not see anything actually say Band25.
  22. Is it just me or since the Spark update does your 3G speeds seem like 1x was before the update? I received the ota update on launch day and it has been that way on 3G since I received the update.
  23. I know this will not make you feel better as I know it would not make me feel better either. But, when I first bought my original Samsung Epic 4G. I literally went through 5 Epic 4Gs with the same buzzing earpiece issue. The first 4, I demanded a new one each time. The fifth one, I was tired of the fighting and they sent me a refurbished one and the refurbished one was finally the one I kept for 3+ years as it was perfect.
  24. I want my update. Come on already HURRRRRRY
  25. Can you please answer my questions above
