Must the G2 be activated in order to receive the ZVA update? Since I am currently using my GN3, the G2 is not activated. I expected that I would receive it anyway - just over WiFi, then I would activate when 800 LTE lights up here in HBG.

I've tried to update check while roaming but with Wi-Fi and it tells me that I must be in Sprint coverage to do it.

I tried to find it is that a app

No. it's not an app...

Go into your contact list, to the left of the "search" box...and click on that icon that looks like a person's head. That's the Vutalk icon.

It'll show contacts that are registered in the Vutalk servers.

XDA heros will act fast as soon as one of them recieves the update. I going to let you all be the lab rats for this one in case there are any problems

You never did VuTalk the other night...I tried to D/C last night and it said you weren't available.

I want to get my true D/C number instead of having my phone number...

Maybe someone here can help...a call to customer care couldn't take care of it either, they couldn't find anything but my phone number tied to D/C...

But I know people that i've seen with a 1*123*12345 for their D/C instead of their 10-digit phone number.

Even with my MSL and digging into the SDC registration doesn't give it up. Still shows my phone number in that screen.

Not only does this work on elevators and phone updates, it also works at cross walks.

Google controls elevators and crosswalks? wow...far-reaching monopolization of search engine conglomerate...

Can't believe the Spark update has been out for exactly one year, as of today, and I still don't have it. <Insert generic G2 complaint here>

I would personally consider availability of 1 band, going to availability of 3 bands to be radio improvement. Since there isn't another instance of tri-band G2 in use on another carrier, then obviously they had to write new code with the new bands enabled..so it just seems obvious that radio performance would be included.

That's due to Ubiquiti, when in that mode it freaks out many 20mhz only devices.

Learn something new every day, thanks..I sure didn't know that. I set it to 40 the other day, haven't paid much attention until I kept getting complaints from family saying things wouldn't connect...so I went back and made the change.

I did get notice of a FW update today, but it obviously didn't fix the issue because even after the 5.5.8 FW none of my devices would connect, and changing to 20mhz solved it.

I'm in a new beta with a range extender..and I sat the beta range extender in the same spot as my Ubiq Loco M2...and I pick up more signal than the Ubi puts out...I was a little shocked to see that. I noticed with my G2 that even 200ft from the range extender, I still see the Asus_EXT network that it's broadcasting, and the G2 says it's "fair" signal..

Must be a decent radio in the G2 from all I've seen. I pick up wifi AP's that I know for sure are almost 1/5 of a mile from me.

I'm sure this isn't something new, likely in the specs, but tinkering with my Ubiquiti airrouter helped me discover that the LG G2 won't connect if you set wireless to 40mHz. Has to be either 20/40, or 20 mHz wide channel. The G2 would see the airrouter, but trying to connect just wouldn't work at all while set to 40 mHz.

My replacement, store level, was refurb, via the rtn menu. Something like eighty calls, and 80 meg of data on life timer.

Does the provider name in the status bar have any significance? Like while roaming, it says (Verizon)*, I never paid close attention to the * before, curious if that has purpose.

Really? I guess I should get an AMEX prepaid card.

I believe post echoing means that posts are being echoed in tapatalk that have already been posted...comes from having prior posts distorted or unreadable, or just plain ignored.

I remember when I was in middle school I used to use Netzero dialup and piggyback AOL over TCP/IP so I could message friends during school before cellphones were more than a backpack you'd have to wear and text messaging was even a concept. It was pretty awesome back then. Free Internet, all you had to do is bare with the ads that slowed your Pentium 90 to a grinding hault.

I ran mIRC with netzero, oh the days of sitting up all night on irc.

I can guarantee you that many tower operators would welcome any additional leases they can handle. Regardless of who else is already on the site.

I actually contacted SBC via email and offered part of my land as available, since I'm less than a hundred feet from the at&t dslam, the corner of my property that's right next to the hut would be a great site, plus I'm on a pretty decent grade. A little more on the equipment side in the hut and at&t can offer u-verse, plus offer LTE on their tower when they install the equipment.

Obviously I can access this tower rather easily if I ever need to, it's exactly 9/10 of a mile from me, and my best friend from school lives directly in front of the tower. He and I could walk to it anytime.

I seriously doubted that SBC would take me up on my offer, with a tower that close, but never hurts to offer and they saved my email for future reference.

Fiber is definitely not a prob where I am tho, there's two 24 pair lines they dug up my driveway back in 1996 and installed.

I just talked with an at&t tech a week ago when my DSL went down, due to someone that lived before my connection having DSL and being cut off, it caused major prob in my line..and he cut me dead so I didn't go 2000 feet past the dslam then into my home, now I come d directly from the dslam and I'm first on the line.

I'm not extremely worried about getting a CPO, but it does irk me just a little. As long as this one performs as it should and gives no probs, I'm not going to dwell much on the 79 phone calls made prior, or the prior 80 meg of data used before I got it. I didn't look it over with my jeweler loop but it seemed to look pretty decent.

Maybe not own, but they definitely lease on it.

Might as well, vzw will remain the only LTE carrier I can get, maybe at&t later this year since they own the tower that vzw sits on.

The issue there is in my area, there's nothing for Sprint to purchase. We have the usual four, minus T-MOBILE in rural/not so rural places around..and your normal prepaid carriers like net 10 and Wal-Mart phones....that's it tho. If they want more coverage here, they have little choice but co locate or build new sites.

Got my G2 in today, and on the rtn menu it does show it's refurb. Also got an email with my msl included when I used Sprint.com to activate..don't even have to call and ask for msl now. And speaker problem is gone, although the timing is bad ...now that I can use my phone, I can't talk on it because I had ten extractions Monday and my mouth is...beyond sore!!

Model Name: CPO LG LS980 LTE WH XCVER SNGL WITH SIM

And a serial number, plus SIM serial I think. Can't tell if that's new in box or if they even have refurb unless it's insurance related...I'm anxious over getting it.

You name it, I've tried it if it's a two way direct connect app, voxer and another app called Tikl. I just like having the D.C.type number, I'd like to be able to dc my wife on her southern Linc though.

Sent from my LG-LS980 (G2) using Tapatalk

Yeah, overall I was pretty impressed with dc after I read lots of complaints saying it didn't work well, I think I was ok. Not excellent, not sorry, but a little above expectations. Add Wi-Fi and I think it would solve many of the issues with sound, to me it sounded like VOIP packets when you have a drop in connection sometimes...it was briefly when it happened though. I'm sure both of us having good 3g connections helped (I was on airave). May try again after I get that new G2 in and the earpiece problem is gone. That would affect anything but what I hear when n not using speaker though

Sent from my LG-LS980 (G2) using Tapatalk

I wondered how the new direct connect worked, a bit of info I've found is that you don't have a 1*123*1234 number attached to your dc...it uses phone number. I tried to dc my wife on her southern Linc and it doesn't work (either method, using her phone number or her dc number).

I stopped into the Corp store with my earpiece problem, and they did see that the earpiece speaker is blown, and the new one is being shipped to me. I hope I'm receiving a brand new device and not a refurb, can someone elaborate on which they send out?
