  1. I like 5.0 on my S4. I think it runs well. The trusted devices feature is well worth the upgrade just by itself. Sent from my Note 4.
  2. That was the update that was released on 5/21/15. According to Sprint, it added factory reset protection and bug fixes, but they weren't specific as to what bugs. Hopefully the next update will fix her problem. The next update will likely be to 5.1. Sent from my Note 4.
  3. Sprint has been adding a second carrier of B25 to the areas of the country where it has enough spectrum to do so. It is another 5x5 carrier, just like the primary carrier. The "2" in SCP just notes that you are currently on the 2nd carrier. Sent from my Note 4.
  4. I forgot about the nexi not be able to use the Sprint app. Sent from my Note 4.
  5. I actually just bought a quick charge 2.0 car charger this week on Amazon. It's made by Aukey. It was around $17 so the price was pretty good too. Sent from my Note 4.
  6. I was trying to get into the stock recovery to clear the system cache. I must have hit volume down instead of up. My phone got so sluggish but it seems better now that I deleted the system cache again. It was taking me about 15 seconds to be able to answer a phone call. It would ring but nothing would come on the screen for what seemed like forever to be able to answer the call. If this doesn't fix it in the long run, I may need to do a wipe and start over again. Sent from my Note 4.
  7. Anybody know how to fix my error? I hit the wrong combination of buttons and ended up in a screen that I don't know how to get out of. At the top left of the screen, it says Odin mode (high speed) and I see a large android guy in the middle. It says downloading... Do not turn off target. Any help would be appreciated. I don't think it's downloading anything but I'm afraid to try to turn it off without somebody telling me if there's a specific way to do it without bricking my phone.
  8. Same. I haven't experienced GPS issues on any of the different versions of software. It locks within about 3 seconds of me turning it on. I usually leave it on power saving mode and just turn it on as needed. Sent from my Note 4.
  9. I'll try it later when I get home. Thanks. Sent from my Note 4.
  10. Can you tell if it's 5.1 or still 5.0? Sent from my Note 4.
  11. I never had that issue when in the Weyers Cave area. The only problem I have in the Weyers Cave area is it keeps switching between ntelos and Sprint 1x800. That is seriously annoying. Sent from my Note 4.
  12. If Shentel could afford 2 additional markets, that would make for a huge swath of Shentel-land. It's all happens to be contiguous too. I'm sure those who live, work, and go to school from State College to Erie would absolutely love for it to happen in the Western PA market. I was hoping Sprint would have at least upgraded the cities in the market by now. Maybe a sale or even just a straight up transfer to Shentel is what's needed to get that market going. Sent from my Note 4.
  13. Was Verizon roaming on Sprint? Sent from my Note 4.
  14. Mine shipped the next day. If they didn't copy your email address correctly, that could be a reason why you never got the shipment email. Call them tomorrow and see if it shipped. Sent from my Note 4.
  15. OK, I thought you were referencing the post above about IP addresses. I never saw your post. Sent from my Note 4.
  16. I don't believe talk about changing IP addresses would be considered "modification." They banned talking about modifying firmware. Sent from my Note 4.
  17. I've been noticing much better load balancing in my area. I've been pretty impressed with how each of the three carriers are pretty equal in speeds. I've been able to test all three carriers back to back between our phones. All are within 1 or 2 mbps of each other. Edit: For those not in our market, by 3 carriers, I mean both PCS (B25) carriers and the SMR (B26) carrier. Still no B41 that anybody has found yet. Sent from my Note 4.
  18. It could be that they haven't increased the backhaul yet. I would hope they wouldn't even add the second PCS carrier without doing so, but it's hard to tell. It has helped speeds in my area. The tower closest to my home, and most towers around me, now have three 5x5 carriers and speeds definitely bumped up since Shentel began doing so. Have you seen any 2nd carrier B25 in Lancaster yet? I realize it's central PA, but I'm curious if Sprint has activated it yet there. Sent from my Note 4.
  19. Confirmed. Just went by there. I only latched onto B25 on the way by so I'm not sure if the other 2 bands are active there yet. I'm in Egypt (PA, not northern Africa) right now and I'm connected to a tower with all 3 bands live. It's good to see progress when I come visit this area. Sent from my Note 4.
  20. We try to go there every year for at least a day. We really like the family atmosphere there. I didn't get there last year, but I was impressed at the difference 2 years made. Sent from my Note 4.
  21. I'm sure your closest tower will get upgraded soon enough. I was on LTE for 90% of the trip from Philly to Ocean City, NJ. Only a part of the Atlantic City Expressway just had 3G.
  22. Here is the link to a post I just put in the Premier section about this site. Sorry if you aren't a premier sponsor but those are the rules. http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/6896-premier-report-sites-in-progress-or-live-for-lte-800-2500/?p=423703
