    Use a svlte device if you want data and voice without volte turned on. Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk

    You should be able to do that. Just change the default SMS app to whatever it is you want to use. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    Those super high speed tests are neat to see. However no one I know cares, or even bothers to check. All they care about is will Facebook, email, and whatever other app they are using load when they open it. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    I used to use the FM tuner a lot when I had my EVO LTE. Its one of the things I miss about that phone, batter life was way better listening via FM tuner vs streaming. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    I usually have a great experience from the authorized retailer I go to. I usually go back to the same rep if I can, I know she does what she can to make the in store experience good. The only time I use telesales or buy online is when its not available in store like when I bought the LivePro. I'm not in phone sales, but I do field services and I couldn't agree with you more. Repeat customers are one of the most important things. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    That may be the case. However, just like your wireless router the airave must be centrally located in your home to provide the best possible coverage. By default they are going to be close together in almost every situation. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    While I don't have the Asus router, my airave has set next to my wireless router for years without any issue. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    Fi apparently works on the Nexus 5 unofficially. http://www.androidheadlines.com/2015/06/project-fi-works-nexus-6-xda-begs-differ.html Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk

    I've had mine replaced once in three years, I had the 2.5 and now have the 2.5+. The unit itself didn't fail, the 12v power supply did and the guy couldn't figure out how to just order the power supply so replaced the entire unit for me. Sprint's Wi-Fi calling needs some serious work to be considered reliable enough to provide coverage replacement. The Asus router is nice, but airave coverage is way more reliable for home voice service than Wi-Fi calling currently is. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    The airave is hands down way more reliable. However, if you have a triband handset and get any LTE at home you need to put the phone in 3G only mode. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    No, Verizon is pushing connected smart watches such as the LG gizmo pal. Apples watch already has battery problems, I can't imagine what it would be like having to also power an additional radio. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    AJ pointed it out to me a while ago, but there will not be any new cdma band classes standardized by the 3gpp2 to be able to use any 600mhz for cdma2000 technologies.

    As long as they continue to maintain the best overall network, I don't see their churn going up by much. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    This could be kind of cool if its similar to Fi, otherwise its just another MVNO. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    I was just near downtown at the war memorial and was connected to band 41. I bet with the next announcement Syracuse is officially launched as a spark market. Band 26 can't come soon enough, I don't know why its not being deployed. Public safety is clear and there is an exclusionary zone around the city for the ibez. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    People don't leave because they get 5mbps instead of 50. They leave because they lose LTE and then their internet times out and apps won't load.

    That was my experience for the few days I was trying an iPhone. The battery life was a little worse than my year and a half old Nexus 5, I couldn't make it through the day without recharging it once. Screen on time might have been a little better, it was hard to tell since battery stats didn't show screen time but stand by was significantly worse. I also had poor LTE performance, it felt like I was back on my old EVO LTE. I wonder if that carrier bundle that broke LTE is contributing towards the poor battery performance by dropping LTE more often. I wouldn't mind an iPhone that was almost twice as thick, with a battery that is twice as large.

    I would pay that, though I have a feeling Sprint would lose money at that rate. What I wouldn't mind seeing would be something similar to the international data speed packs, they could offer domestic roaming packs at a preset cost that you could add on before heading out on vacation.

    That's how I thought it would work too, but his experience differs. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    That is incorrect. I know several people, and have seen several posts here about other members that have been let out of their contract for poor and unusable service. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    Not all phones have that specific setting. That doesn't show up on my Nexus 5 if a Sprint SIM is in the phone, just LTE, 3G, 1x, and Global. IVR is confusing, the PRL should probably be set up to disallow any international CDMA roaming to prevent that from happening to other customers.
  22. travismheim
    Unless you lose LTE, you aren't sending SMS over CDMA if you have a triband phone on Sprint. How would RCS improve delayed text messages? If SMS is being delayed what makes you think RCS messages wouldn't also be delayed?
  23. travismheim
    Or switch to Android and see how much better it is and what she has been missing . The 4.7" screen size could be perfect if they would just reduce the bezels and overall physical size of the phone.
  24. travismheim
    If RCS can be integrated into iMessage or Hangouts the way SMS and MMS are I might see it taking hold. I just don't see the incentive to add support unless the other three carriers add RCS on the network side and demand the functionality be native in those apps. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    A lot of things in release 10 are available that are not deployed yet.
