    Interesting observation this weekend. I took a trip out to Iowa and that had me in areas with a few GMO's and not yet complete sites. I noticed the 6 likes to stick on a 1x signal longer than usual in not so great areas. I compared it with my Nexus 5 on Ting, which found 3G much faster than the iPhone did.

    Anyone having issues with dropped calls this week? I've had two in the last 24 hours Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    I was also using Bluetooth with my soundbar thing for a few hours as well. Also helped that I was on WiFi 98 percent of the time since I was working from home today. Now if I turned the wifi off and went to the basement for a few hours, I'd be guaranteed to lose the rest of my battery since I get a fringe 1x1900 signal down there usually.

    First day of not having it on the charger at any point. Pretty damn good considering I was on calls for at least 2 hours today Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    This happens to me all the time. Seems as if I need a really strong 3G connection in order for it to work. Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    I was there all the time too. This is the first year in the last 3 I won't be able to go to Halloween Horror nights. I'm so sad about this. There is Band 41 but it was really weak on my Nexus 5. I think there is a clear 41 site on one of those hotels across the street on Kirkman. You'll probably have a better experience with the iPhone 6. Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    Sprint definitely needs to get something high capacity over on Universal property. I've never had a good network experience there. I also heard about AT&T having a similar agreement with Disney and that they would be installing hidden small cells throughout the parks.. But honesty from what I've heard Sprint is pretty good at Disney, likely because everyone is on WiFi and all the sites on property are updated. When I worked there 3 years ago it was abysmal.

    I have 70 shares I bought at 7.75 a few months ago (so down like $100 so far [emoji25]). I kind of want to add to my position and maybe scoop up another 50 before they release Q3. If I'm feeling balsy when earnings come around I may go long with some options, buuut I need to do some further analysis first. Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    The tiny little 5x5 PCS carrier probably can't handle all the traffic. A signal to noise ratio (SNR) of 0.2 is really really low and likely means the airline is saturated. This was what happened last year in Chicago before they deployed the second carrier. No Band 41 or 26? Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    Exactly what happened to me. When I became a premier sponsor and found out that Clear 41 was all around me in Orlando, I placed an order for a Nexus 5. Then had it rooted and on B41 within 2 weeks. Comparing my device and the network situation now to last year when I still had the GS3, its a night and day difference. And it's getting better every day. Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    I think he may already have the provider that can serve his needs, he just does not have the best tool for taking advantage of what Sprint can offer him. If I were Joey, I would give a new triband device a fair shake with Sprint on the 14 day trial period (iPhone 6 for best network results imo) and then if he's not satisfied, seek elsewhere.

    maybe I spoke too soon.. First few tries I had no issues but now it's clocking like it was before after I punch in the dial code. Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    Also it appears the engineering screen issue has been fixed with the 8.02 update Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    So this actually happened. Viewer discretion is advised..

    I bought a case when I got the phone but only had it on for like an hour. No drops yet.. And I actually did crash and burn with my old Galaxy SIII when running on the treadmill. Needless to say it did not survive the fall.. Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    Hmm. I wonder the same myself. I think it would be unique. If you look on the sponsor maps, some DAS sites mapped have their own site ID's so I would assume unique GCI's as well. But the Best Buy I frequent also has a DAS, or at least some sort of repeater to improve signal in the store, and the GCI is the same in the store as it is for the site down the street. So to answer your question, my guess would be it depends. I'm sure Robert or AJ could give a definite answer. Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    Congrats on tying the knot! And DAS antennas look something like this: We have quite a few DAS antennas like these where I work. Verizon is our primary carrier, but I get excellent Sprint service in the office so it makes me think we have a few DAS's that have Sprint tied to them too. Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    Interesting. I suppose Sprint could aggregate it's two 5x5 PCS LTE slices in places like Chicago and Shentel-Land if it wanted. But even if they do that, It kind of seems pointless because the capacity of two non-aggregated 5x5 channels and two aggregated 5x5 channels would be the same, the only difference would be a greater peak speeds. (and maybe better performance at the cell edge?) From how I understand it, with all the congestion on PCS LTE already CA at this point would likely not make much difference in peak speeds and little to no difference would be seen in the eyes of the average user.

    Interesting. I wonder how we could get to the bottom of this, I'm kind of curious now. Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    The SMS tunneling thru LTE and no data connection during a call wouldn't be enough to prove its using eCSFB? Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    Aw I thought it was going to be something cool like a hidden area where I can put crap like iBooks and that health app I haven't even used yet Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network

    Also excuse my Apple ignorance, last time I had anything close to an iPhone was a second gen iPod touch.. Anyway, what is the point of the icons shifting down and giving a blank spot? Sent from my iPhone 6 on the Now Network
