I actually just saw that one. Pretty awesome. I hope water proofing becomes a norm. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

So how confident are you guys in the GS5's water resistance? I went to Aquatica in Orlando last weekend and was pretty surprised on how many people were taking selfies as they went down the larger water rides. I took the water resistance as peace of mind if it rains, but I don't know if I could ever submerge a ~$700 phone.

Well that's promising at least. I assumed the APN settings within Hangouts and not the engineering screen? Or did you have to do both? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

That's not MMS. Sending pictures over a Hangouts message wouldn't be an issue if everyone used it. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I tried the new image but Hangouts MMS is still in the toilet. Back on 4.4.4. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I've been observing their XLTE rollout while I develop in Orlando and let me tell you... if you were a techie Verizon customer you would be extremely disappointed. They are pretty much doing island coverage, even in their launched cities like Orlando. You can find it in some highly populated and trafficked areas, but that's it. Unless you are in a popular shopping center or a theme park you would be hard-pressed to find it around here. They are really making the Sprint rollout look golden all around. Edit: I know that really didn't answer your question, but it kind of rules out the all at once option.

Any tips/things to look out for when selling phones online?

Nah, but I'm sure they have probably gotten a lot of others like that. That one was probably one of the better put together scams I've seen so far. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk -

I use eBay a lot. The only thing I'd really recommend if you go the eBay route is to be sure you are very strict to doing everything over eBay. Some scammers are very crafty... they will ask you over the official eBay channels to email them more photos of the device--- they do this just to get your email address. Once they have that they'll will place the winning bid or buy it now price for your item and you will get an email from eBay@info.com (or something similar) telling you that the buyer has paid for the item and you should now ship it. This happened to me once and I gave them hell. When all was said and done I told the user I was reporting them to eBay (not that they did anything... they actually wanted me to leave them good feedback) and got a beautifully worded email back from the fake eBay domain about how the buyer's cash was being held by eBay while they were waiting on me to ship the item and that if I did not comply I would be subjected to a stiff monetary penalty. It was kind of laughable when I experienced it, but I know they were creative enough that they probably probably get a lot of people who aren't careful caught up in that scam. Stick to doing everything through eBay's communications and always wait for the PayPal to confirm payment and you should almost always be good. -
I didn't recall what was done before. Just throwing something out there. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

It just occurred to me that I rolled out a feature specifically designed to help GS5 users and I don't know if I told anyone that uses a GS5! Since the GS5 appears to have an issue reporting the PLMN ID via the traditional API's I created a new custom band feature in LTE Discovery that would allow users to create a rule that would allow the app to identify B41 sites by using the first three digits of the GCI and TAC. There's more info on this post if you're interested. http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/2864-lte-discovery-app-for-s4gru/?p=344355

Maybe clear the dialer cache? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Haven't been in Tampa for awhile so I can't help you with what the first three digits of the GCI are for B41, but if you can can get those three digits and the TAC you can create a custom band rule in the menu of LTE Discovery's signal tab so it will always recognize that as B41.

It's a versatile beast. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Are you using a custom kernel by any chance? If so, I'd revert to stock and see if that helps. I've seen some very weird issues caused by kernel bugs.

People are just going to hate one way or the other for no good reason. I wouldn't give it much thought. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

New version of LTE Discovery rolling out (v3.7.10) The prime feature is the ability to create Custom Bands. For all of you GS4 or GS5 users whose devices seem to unreliably report the PLMN ID used to identify B41, you can program the app to detect those sites as B41 using the area code and TAC instead. If you guys have already gathered data which is bad because of these device errors, the app will go back and recalculate the band for any logs that fit the conditions. I highly recommend being as specific as possible when programming a new band. Try to use at least two fields (highly recommend one being the area code or TAC/or both) and be absolutely sure any field you do not want considered is left blank. Any bands that are computed from user defined values will be marked by an asterisk in the logs. Also, I am going to be setting up a remote database fed by a community spreadsheet so we can get a list of band rules available to any S4GRU sponsor who may need them. Hopefully this will help considerably with identification of Sprint B41 8t8r sites. If we could also get enough users who are present in Clear B41 markets to volunteer the area code and TAC info then we can alleviate B41 identification issue for all GS4/GS5 users. I am going to be creating an easy way for devices to pull and import these rules of trusted members from the spread/database. I don't know if the community would get behind this, but I'm hopeful users would like and enjoy it. If anyone would like to help manage the spreadsheet and submissions from users I would greatly appreciate it. I will not be able to do it myself in addition to the upkeeping of the app at the moment, so it would be great to have a few volunteers to help moderate the process. This way we can ensure the gathered data is accurately handled and has a degree of verification. Otherwise, I am likely just going to have an open spreadsheet that anyone could add to.

Just haven't been too impressed with Motorola recently. I'm open to changing my mind of course but I'd rather see an HTC Nexus 6. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
