  1. Actually, they do some repairs in the store. More complicated repairs are shipped to regional facilities and are repaired and wiped there, then distributed to stores.
  2. But the replacement device I was given is definitely not a new phone. Theoretically, if we got access to the software the Genius Bar uses to wipe a phone before giving it to a customer, we could use it to unlock a sprint iPhone, correct? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  3. As you all know, Sprint phones are sold with their GSM "parts" locked. Today I had an Apple Store appointment, and my iPhone was replaced for a broken power button. When the Genius set up the new phone, the first screen (before the "Hi, Hola, Bonjour, Konichiwa, etc" screen) asked what carrier the phone should use. The choices were all CDMA carriers I believe, with Verizon and Sprint at the top, and regional carriers below them. So theoretically, if the Genius had chosen Verizon, I would have an unlocked phone that runs on Verizon? I know that CDMA carriers use ESN databases, but these replacement iPhones are given out regardless of your carrier. So these iPhones are added to the ESN databases when the geniuses set them up? I'm confused as to how this works.
  4. Agh we need some deployment here! Haven't seen any new LTE in ages. DC, however is looking nice. I saw a tower crew in Pentagon City yesterday. I'm not sure if it was sprint though. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  5. It's priced at $259.99 for me. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  6. Everyone does this and it annoys me. What part of "It does not make a difference" do they not understand? To be honest, my iPhone never slows down. On my old 3GS, too many multitasking apps may have been a problem sometimes, but in newer iOS versions, the threshold for releasing suspended apps has been increased to around 75-100MB free.
  7. No, you cannot. Apple developers do NOT have any special privileges as far as downgrading firmware. If you update to iOS 7 beta (or 6.1.4 for that fact), on a device with an A5 chip or higher, you cannot restore to anything but the latest iOS 7 beta or iOS 6.1.4.
  8. They work on sites as they can. As soon as they get equipment, and the site is prepared (backhaul, permits, etc), they get to work. They'll get to those sites soon. They aren't excluded, I promise!
  9. Do we have some Clearwire LTE support in here? He moved too fast... Done in like 20 minutes. Crammed it all really fast. And looks like its plastic again. Damnit!
  10. Yeah, the VZW EVDO network is going to shit here too. Pings over 200ms everywhere, speeds around 50kbps occasionally, while others are blazing along at 2Mbps. Sprint has great speeds where VZW is crap. VZW has amazing speeds where Sprint os crap.
  11. Is anyone expecting this to be a budget phone? Like the Nexus 4? We really need a CDMA budget phone.
  12. Its pretty fast here, especially Sprint to Sprint. Seems fine down in DC as well. After I jailbroke, however I've been receiving several messages at once, and most of them I've already received. I'm pretty sure its just a tweak I've installed though.
  13. We went from 40' and snowy on Wednesday to 70' and sunny today. LTE must be coming!
  14. Bit of bias there, don't you think? It's definitely a great device. But I wouldn't go as far as saying it decimates every other device on the market. Yeah, I jailbroke my first iPhone, on Cingular/AT&T. AppTapp, iLiberty. Installer.app. Back when Cydia was an alternate app store that no one used. Ah, those were the days.
  15. I would love that... I don't want to spend $99. And I never will. I have a tweak recommendation for everyone. Check out BatteryDoctorPro. Amazing app for lock screen toggles, battery control/conservation. It's free on BigBoss.
  16. Forget LTE, allow 3G roaming and I'll be happy. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  17. Oh, thank you! EDIT: Uh oh, Weather app is crashing now.
  18. Mine isn't showing the time. I have an iPhone 5 as well. Here's mine:
  19. Ooh can you give me the Dashboard X Clock/Weather Widget you're using? And I just got Unfold. Already had LockInfo and Auxo. I'll upload my screenshot in a second. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  20. The Apple Developer Program allows you to do that. $99 a year, and you can sign your own code. There's even an HTML5 site that allows developers to install Cydia packages without a jailbreak.
  21. WThe round table format ate hairy spiders when drunk. Its towers became bloated after swallowing a mouthful of baby formula. The baby ate his poisoned barbeque chicken ribs without A1 steak sauce. Fix the chair leg before somebody trips and breaks their sister's glass. It peed shards of LTE droppings from bubbly fermented apples. Doctors gouge the helpless when options appear dangerously silly for perpendicular slicing. Around 2pm there was another explosive diarrhea attack that drove Dan to SMS SoftBank, which viciously countered MetroPCS;s audacity to compete. Meanwhile, Mexicans discovered sparkly water of Rio which tasted like rainbows. LightSquared, however, beamed sparkly clusters of spectrum at GPS, causing multitudes of bananas being paranoid about world domination. This exacerbated an enormous flock of pelicans into your mother's house. Then seagulls confronted Darla with weapons manufactured in Korea that annihilated Kim Kardashian. She fell backwards after drinking highly intoxicating tequila shots. Uncoincidentally, she tripped over and fell on her face, then vomited major chunks of beef jerky while passing gas. Afterwards, Kanye parachuted over Taylor Swift grave and randomly stomped salmonella

  23. Finally LTE on Rt 40! Got a good signal around Sams Club/Chick Fil A in Catonsville.
