  1. Bumping an old thread. So is anyone else left on a Sprint Framily plan? I still have mine and I'm wondering if Sprint is looking to get me to move off of it. Until this month I could still change services on my plan. I.e. I could adjust my data tiers from 1gb/3gb/unlimited. Add/remove hulu, global roaming, etc. Today I was trying to dig around my plan options and it I just got an error message telling me I can't change services and to go visit a retail shop for help. I will have to try again tomorrow and see if I'm still blocked from changing services.
  2. Well, looks like the Note 8 hasn't been forgotten yet. July 1 patch incoming.
  3. The Note 8 does have a 2x optical zoom. No super wide angle though. The Note 9 is adding the adjustable aperture.
  4. It does depend a lot on the rep you speak too. I had many who flat out refused to give it to me. It's also why I like buying my phones from Best Buy. They will give you the MSL as part of your paperwork along with a copy of your sales contract. Of course it hasn't mattered on my Note 8 since the MSL is all zeroes.
  5. May security patch rolling out.... Crud... Beaten to the punch.
  6. Well, the Senate just voted to approve the CRA. Now it has to go to the House, where if it somehow manages to pass it'll go to the President's desk for his signature.
  7. It's bonds that will have set payment schedules and maturity dates. My guess is they're using this debt to pay off current debt that's about to come due. They've done it in the past.
  8. Well enough to keep it around but not well enough to hurt the bottom line. So yeah, I guess.
  9. Looks like January update is rolling out. Check your updates.
  10. So I just did my usual obsessive check for updates on my Note 8 and behold. A software update is incoming. Probably just the November security patch. The update looks to be about 158 Megs.
  11. I had a chance to use Calling Plus on the drive home yesterday and it was very cool to be on the call and still use data. It's only been the one time so I can't make any real judgments on it.
  12. Looks like Note 8 users are joining the club. http://s4gru.com/forums/topic/7641-galaxy-note-8-rumors-specs-thoughts-etc/?do=findComment&comment=520517
  13. Software update incoming. Finally had this pop-up. Update: after installing the phone shows its on the October 1st security patch. And calling plus now displays instead of wifi calling.
  14. I'll throw this into mix. WSJ seems a little more definitive in saying deal is off. subhead says Sprint will invest instead. Don't have a subscription anymore so I can't get behind the paywall and read the full story. https://www.wsj.com/articles/softbank-to-drop-effort-to-merge-sprint-with-t-mobile-1509386656?mod=e2tw
  15. Huh, I always figured the S was for Samsung and M was for mobile.
  16. Mine is the same. Maybe all the new Samsung phones are actually unlocked? My phone's model number is SM-N950U. Could the U signify unlocked?
  17. My note had its software update this morning. Not sure what was in it other than security patches.
  18. When you launch the camera and swipe in from the left edge does the mode menu pop up? It does on mine. And there is a + button to get more camera modes. But there are only 3 additional ones to choose from. But there is not a dual camera option.
  19. To be fair, Google only purchased Motorola for its patents in the first place. They had no desire to be a hardware company. Motorola was the Company with the largest warchest of mobile telecom patents available.
  20. I paid my Note 4 off back in March or May. They just sent me an email offering a monthly credit if I pre-ordered. Not as good as the half-off deal for new lines, but it was almost 30%. I'll wind up paying about the same as I did for my Note 4.
  21. Does anyone own or has used a Samsung Dex? If yes, do you think its worth getting?
