    I was replying toward your response of removing roaming data all together. You are right, I signed on with data roaming available. I was simply stating they may want to overhaul their domestic roaming options when they have far better options available for international. And to be clear, I'm not asking for anything for free.

    Sure, if they also make my plan cheaper or actually follow through on their planned network expansion in a timely manner. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    I'm not making any excuses. But they may want to reevaluate roaming on a whole. They give far better international options than they do for domestic. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    LTE roaming is nice, but it makes that 100/300MB limit seem a lot smaller. My sister went through her entire roaming allowance tonight. I know data use is data use, but LTE makes it much easier to use up vs evdo/1x. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    Can't you just pull it from the image? https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en. The old image should also have the older radio. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    The way I understood it, LTE plus was areas that have all technologies deployed and on air, ie LTE 800/1900/2500 and CA enabled. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    The only real way I see using band 25 as uplink and band 41 downlink would be carrier aggregation. B25 as the primary component carrier and b41 as the secondary component carrier. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    Doesn't the FCC only test uplink? I'm not flat out saying to believe a tweet from customer care. However, until we either get a functional engineering screen or a speed test faster than what a single b41 carrier can produce we can't say that it is working. Based on previous handset launches, it is not out of the ordinary to have radio features lay dormant and later be activated with a software update. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    Just because the phone is physically capable of a radio feature does not mean it is currently "unlocked" or working. Look at the initial spark handsets, how long was it before the Nexus 5 and G2 had official support for band 41? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    I wonder if that includes anyone activating a different handset on their line or just those that "upgrade" through Sprint channels. Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk

    Didn't they change all unlimited plans to have deprioritization after 23GB? Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk

    The free amazon prime was cool even if it ran out as quickly as it did. Family wall premium is meh, it was a neat idea but its easier to just use a private Facebook group or Google plus circle. Early upgrade will be nice for a lot of customers though. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    Sounds good to me. It's cheap enough to justify for a vacation type expense but too expensive for some one to continually roam.
  14. travismheim
    I would be willing to pay more in the form of an add on data pack similar to international data offerings already available.

    It does not use 800 for voice, it makes the handset switch over to 1900. I was able to confirm the lack of voice coverage on 800 (on Airvana 2.5/2.5+ models) a while ago by forcing my old evo lte radio to secondary 800. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    I've had pretty good luck with roaming on Verizon in my market. I don't run a custom PRL anymore so it's only 1x data but it usually works fine for browsing/navigation and calls/text work well. If Sprint ditched in market roaming, I likely wouldn't be a customer anymore. I don't roam very often, but I don't want to be stuck without service when it could be available.

    How is battery life on the 5X, specifically typical screen on time?

    No eCSFB necessary on a data only device. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    Can you add a line with an existing owned device, then go to Best buy and get the "upgrade"? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    I was talking about USPS service, not FedEx. USPS contracts many couriers including airlines such as United to move packages and mail for them. Package acceptance is USPS, payment is made to USPS, and final delivery is also USPS. They are cheaper, provide seven day delivery, deliver to more addresses, and the service is generally faster at every level. Not to mention there are far more locations nationwide to ship from.

    It happens at all times. Connected to WiFi at home, at work when WiFi is off etc.
  22. travismheim
    Has anyone else had a large battery drain showing up as WiFi in battery stats? For the last two weeks or so it's been eating 25-50% of my battery, sometimes doubling or tripling screen battery usage. I don't know if it's actually WiFi or some rogue app causing it but it's been driving me nuts. The phone won't last the whole day with an hour of screen time anymore with it happening.

    LG V10

    travismheim replied to smooth25's topic in LG

    A friend of mine has one of these and they let me play with it for a bit. It's pretty nice, the commercials don't really do it justice. It's a shame they didn't make a Sprint version, but I would never change my service provider because of a handset.
  24. travismheim
    USPS will also deliver priority mail express on Sunday. Their service is faster, its cheaper, and its generally better in every way. I don't see why anyone deals with UPS or FedEx anymore. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    This was an affiliate market that was not originally built out very well that Sprint later took over. Site density and placement is poor here compared to many other "native" Sprint markets. Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk
