  1. I think I caught some 8T8R equipment in testing last night, but I was also kicked off before I could confirm. The GCI was different and Signalcheck was reporting regular B25 but according to other users it can be inaccurate with 8T8Rs. I was off of the site before I could check the debug screen.

     

    I actually noticed what appeared to be an 8t8r site on one of my beta testers logs taken from the same day in Charlotte!  Looks like you guys are about to get some 8t8r love.

  2. I don't know if you guys have heard about this or not, but I'm not sure how well something like this would work in real world scenarios.  Even if they knew what channels every voice network operated on in every market, this would never be able to distinguish Hangout and iMessages sent over data (unless they start packet-sniffing, in which case I believe intercepting wireless communication is still illegal).  

    Also, how are they going to distinguish between you getting a text and sending one?  Is that even possible?

  3. Any of you guys know if the Moto G properly reports GCI from LTE Discovery or SignalCheck?  Looking at picking up a backup developers device and just want to be sure it would work for me.  I know the Moto X has had issues with this previously.

  4. So my Nexus 5 loves to park itself on a useless 1x1900 connection in my basement office when I know there is a so much better 1x800 signal out there. Can't send texts and calls will break up unless I get kicked to 1x800 (and it doesn't happen easily). Is there a way around this problem without flashing a custom PRL? (Can't figure out how to do it on this device, tried like 7 times with no luck)

    This has been buried inside this thread but everyone who has tried my instructions were able to flash a custom PRL. Give it one more try...

  5. Meanwhile, in St. Augustine: Despite the downtown site being fully upgraded, I still experienced terrible service. I got glimmers of B25 and B26, but only in a few places through all of downtown. When I did get a signal, speeds weren't terrible (3-15mbps). EVDO was super slow, though - Pings in the 150+ms, 0.10mbps.

     

    Eating lunch at A1A Aleworks, which has a second floor balcony, I was able to pick up a B41 signal, although it wasn't very strong. 9cc745cd22cdeeb672216890e3b95327.jpg

     

    Obviously St. Augustine still needs site optimization. B26 will do wonders here once this happens!

    So fast for such a weak signal.

  6. Mashed the button a lot and it seems to have helped, but I want to avoid pressing it as much as possible until I can get a temporary replacement.  Anyone know of any good apps that will let me tap the screen to turn on the phone?  Tried some basic one off of the Play Store but didn't have any luck.
