  1. That could be it. I go in and out of roaming coverage a fair amount (usually Verizon) each week for work and never experienced anything like that. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  2. I can still update the PRL/Profile as many times as I want back to back. It still applies the same PRL if there isn't a new one. I will also go from roaming 1x and reconnect to Sprint eHRPD without any input on my part, you may have something wrong with your phone.
  3. I have the nexus charger, and two other random brand ones I bought online. I can put a regular cotton sock between the charger and the phone and it will work but that's about it. The case I use is similar to an otterbox defender and it won't work. A thinner case may work with it, but at that point I might as well use the phones bare. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  4. It doesn't work at all on my Nexus 5 or LG G2 (VZW) if I have my cases on either phone. Sent from my SM-T217S using Tapatalk
  5. Thanks. I've been seriously considering taking the plunge and trying out an iPhone for the very first time. Sprint offered me a $50 bill credit if I lease or buy an iPhone 6 with easy pay. Since 5.0 my standby battery life has tanked though usage time has improved. It seems like the iPhone gets significantly better battery life which would be a huge plus. Is the 16GB model adequate? I've been using the 16GB version of the Nexus 5 for a while and never really came close to using all of the memory. My music is usually streamed, or cached for offline use in Spotify and Google Play and pictures stay on the cloud in Photos. By far my biggest storage hog is my nandroid back ups, but I'm not sure if iOS has something similar (or if its really even necessary). Sent from my SM-T217S using Tapatalk
  6. Is there a way to check screen on time in battery stats? Sent from my SM-T217S using Tapatalk
  7. They recently changed everyone to use 24 month upgrade cycle instead of 20, might want to double check if you are still eligible. A lot of people were upset about it. Sent from my SM-T217S using Tapatalk
  8. If you have no data connectivity and choose to send by Google Voice in Hangouts, the message will not send and it will say message not sent, touch to retry. If that happens, you can easily toggle it to send via regular SMS instead. However, data does work while only connected to 1x, roaming data needs to be enabled obviously if you aren't in native coverage. 1x data is slow, but I rarely have trouble sending Google Voice messages while on it (native or roaming).

  9. Google may not want to support another platform via browser. I don't really agree with it, but I understand why they want Hangouts/Google Voice in Chrome and not a competing browser they don't have control over. When you integrate Google Voice with Hangouts, there is a toggle to send via SMS/MMS, via Google Voice, and via Hangouts next to where you enter your message. Each message shows how it was sent (SMS, Google Voice, or Hangouts). Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  10. Not my phone, but it's definitely something new. Friend of mine grabbed that screenshot for me. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  11. Since Lollipop, everything can be backed up. Folders, apps, settings, arrangement, WiFi, contacts etc. Photo back up has to be turned on if you've never used the option within the photos app. Every time I reset my Nexus, during the Lollipop set up it asks if I want to restore and which device I want to restore from. I haven't tried restoring my Nexus from my G2 or Tab 3 backups so I'm not sure how well it works between vastly different devices but the option is there. I'm not sure I would even want to try it, since my tablet has a lot of pre installed bloat from Samsung that I don't want on my phone. There's also a an option to copy another device via NFC, but I haven't had the chance to try it since each time I have been re flashing the new system image on the same phone. I realistically won't be able to try it until I upgrade to a new device. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  12. I meant there is nothing about enable OEM unlock in developer options on my nexus 5. I wonder if it has to do with the new feature on the nexus 6 that makes it impossible to use a stolen phone, I forgot what they called it.
  13. Rural areas usually only have one PCS 1X carrier, and one evdo carrier on the CDMA side. I don't really see a need to keep multiple panels and radios up unless its a high capacity site. Sent from my SM-T217S using Tapatalk
  14. It sounds like you can disable SMS in hangouts and use your SMS app as normal. You'll probably get duplicates of everything through hangouts via google voice though. Sent from my SM-T217S using Tapatalk
  15. There is no such option under developer options on my nexus 5 on 5.1. Sent from my SM-T217S using Tapatalk
  16. I can still flash it manually, that's how I got 5.0, 5.0.1, and now 5.1 on it. I was just wondering why I can't use the flash-all batch file since 5.0 was released.
  17. Yeah, I've always unpacked the image to that folder. Just to be clear, you're referring to the platform tools folder right? The cut down version on XDA was labeled adb, but installation from android studio puts it in an obscure location. The only thing I've found searching the issue on my own is several people using an older outdated version of platform tools.
  18. I would settle for 90, and 81 at this point. It can be a painful drive when traveling.
  19. I tried that one from XDA on 5.0.1 and it gave me the same result. I may give it a try a little later but after finishing setting everything back up on 5.1 I would be a little disappointed if it did happen to work and wiped everything again.
  20. I like the feature that emulates the mag strip on cards, allowing for phone payment pretty much anywhere. It's been a while since anyone did anything new regarding mobile payments.
  21. Since 5.0, I haven't been able to use the flash-all batch for flashing the factory images. I get an error every time, using the newest SDK platform-tools (now rev22) in android studio. Any idea why its causing this? I don't mind manually flashing, but it's a little annoying. archive does not contain 'boot.sig' archive does not contain 'recovery.sig' failed to allocate 1046070000 bytes error: update package missing system.img Press any key to exit..
  22. The HD voice call out for T-Mobile and Verizon is VoLTE using whatever the HD codec is, I can't remember off the top of my head. It doesn't call out Sprint because they don't support VoLTE yet.
