Well, that's all very disappointing. So it's all pretty much the same specs as last year? I'll definitely be skipping out on this phone.

Any news on the following for each of the phones?

-HPUE

-CA

-RAM

Are they using Qualcomm chips or did they manage to switch everything over to intel?

Will hard drop to 1x but smooth to wifi calling both ways.

Any statistics on handoff rates to 1x?

Since they ask you for your address when you go to pre-order the Magic Box, if you and your next door neighbor were to both order it, would they deny one of you since you're so close to each other possibly causing interference? Or would they just approve both of you and not really have a system in place to check that?

Testing of 4x4 mimo and 256 qam happening.

Is that lab testing or live field testing?

What is the video streaming rate for existing ED1500 Unlimited data folks?  Is there a way for me to determine this on my own? (HTC One M9, if that matters)

There shouldn't be any limits on any of your data for ED1500. Excluding Deprioritization.

So, let me know if I have this right. For the family plan, it's $110 + $20 for the first line, then $20 for each additional line after?

1 line: $130

2 lines: $150

3 lines: $170

4 lines: $190

Does this seem right? -$10 for autopay

I am unaware of varying any level's of service through Calyx. You should be able to replace it with any Sprint branded mobile broadband, 6100d is such a device so you should have no issues.

Looking on here, they have the 12 Month Premium Membership Bundle with Mobile Hotspot (ZTE Pocket WiFi Mobile Hotspot)

for $398 and $255 after the first year, then they have 12 Month Membership Bundle with Mobile Hotspot (Franklin R850 Mobile Hotspot) for $250 and $168 after the first year.

Any idea what the difference between these two, besides the device they come with? Both appear to be the same. Could one buy the second option and replace the device (paying less every 12 months)?

I'm still trying to figure out how all this works exactly.

I explained this process to @calyx, as they were unaware CS was an option. After emailing them, email trolling mobile citizen and then tweeting at Sprintcare I just called in. I just did not enjoy the idea of a battery powered standby plugged in all day per Note 7. Picked one up on Ebay, called in and got it swapped. Apparently no one ever tried this before. I just followed the instructions in the crappy aircard GUI to call x number for assistance. Nick and the Calyx crew were pretty excited about this news.

 

Who knew? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Interesting. Would I have to be on the more expensive plan to use the 6100D, or could I buy any of them and replace the device with the 6100D? Also, is calling in easier or just setting up an account and doing it online?

Ebay.

If you buy one of these plans, can you swap out the device with another?

Did they remove the netgear 6100D as an option? I don't see it anymore.

Speeds have dropped for me with pings between 300 and 500+ since yesterday in Blacksburg.

I'm experiencing the same thing with notifications here. It's really odd. Might have something to do with the last app update?

Is this something that will work cross carrier?

Donated. Hopefully there's enough to go toward the site after the raffle.

This is a silly discussion.

Took 13 minutes at work. Lets see how bad this slows down my 6. Only thing I care about is wificalling to cdma handoff. If it works well, ill stick to ios10. If not, ill go back to ios9 .

Does iOS 10 really support WiFi calling to CDMA handoff?

The 8t8r antenna can be run at 8t8r 3 carriers or 4t4r 6 carriers[split the 8t8r 3 and 3].

Do which would be the better configuration once the technology gets to this point? 3 carriers 8T8R or 6 carriers 4T4R?

I often see Clear B41 at -122 or so, but the service doesn't actually work, so pointing out that it holds on that long doesn't actually mean anything.

 

What I don't understand is why not add an 8T8R to Clear sites that already support dual carrier rather than ripping and replacing? It would instantly give them the ability to run 5 carriers from a given site. To the extent the Clear gear doesn't cover as well, push people outdoors onto Clear and those with lower signal onto the 8T8R.

Does 8T8R max out at 3 carriers?

I wish. I see B41 on a glimpse for like a mile stretch on my every day commute. I never sit on B41 for more than a couple minutes.

I kind of feel like they are more focused on quantity over quality in this whole expansion to meet verizon thing. Now I don’t use t-mobile but from what I hear their coverage where they are expanding to tends to be not the greatest.

Apparently T-mobile thinks they will have coverage on par with Verizon within the next 12 months. Possibly sooner. http://www.cnet.com/news/t-mobile-vows-to-match-verizons-coverage-in-next-12-months/#ftag=CAD590a51e

I'd recommend it. iOS 9.3.3 is expected to be the last major update before iOS 10 is released in a few months, so you might as well get on the latest and jailbreak while you still can.

 

The semi-untethered part isn't bad at all, especially considering all jailbreak apps / mods / settings / etc. remain intact.

 

I'm just glad Field Test is fullscreen on my 6+ again:

Woah, did they really finally update field test?!
