I believe any market with Sprint B41 as opposed to Clear B41, pending the results of FIT. Once those tests are complete and the configuration is approved, I think it's just a remote software update. Both 8T8R and triband antennas support a 3rd carrier.

 

Clear equipment in those markets will continue with 1 or 2 carriers, depending on what the equipment is capable of.

I wonder how this would affect, Miami, for example. It's a really mixed market between Clear and Sprint sites.... I've also for a couple Clear 2xCA sites. So it all comes down to ripping wimax fully out? Or???

I have a glitch after marshmallow 6.0 update that was wondering if anyone else has it too. When I raise or lower the volume, the window that pops up doesn't go away until I touch anywhere on the screen again.... That's never happened before. Normal behavior is u raise or lower the volume, box comes up and shortly after its would automatically disappear.

 

Anyone else has this problem? If so, do u know a fix?

Don't forget about Dr Saws promise to have third carrier started by the end of 2015 and that third carrier is all software. No site visits required. Third carrier will benefit any triband phone at a congested site with extra backhaul.

How did u learn it was all software related?

It only affects it in a few select cities. Mainly New York City. That's about it.

Miami too?

So what does this mean?! That even though the end for wimax is inevitable, its still being extended? Then what???

I'm seriously considering ordering one today with Amazon's sale. I have $100 in Amazon credit, so I'd be paying $250 for a 32GB MXPE. I just have to decide if it's enough of an upgrade from my Galaxy Note 4 to pull the trigger before it sells out.

Amazing phone...but, the N4 still has plenty life left in it. Save ur money if u want.

Just because the phone is physically capable of a radio feature does not mean it is currently "unlocked" or working. Look at the initial spark handsets, how long was it before the Nexus 5 and G2 had official support for band 41?

Exactly.

No no...

You should be able to reformat the exFAT SD card to FAT32 using a PC. If Windows doesn't achieve this task then track down a reformat utility.

Yes windows will not allow to formart anything higher than 32gb to FAT32. I just read it in another forum. I would need a 3rd party app to make it happen.

How do I make sure when I buy an SD card that it's FAT32?

 

Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

Hmm mine worked fine. Maybe reformat on PC first?

I did. I said that...but I noticed that my 16gb is on FAT32 while my 64gb is on exFAT, and won't let me switch to FAT32. Thoughts?

I'm trying to make my 64gb sd card part of my internal memory storage. It's not working....when I click format as internal, its stays at 30% and then times out with an error. I grabbed my 16gb sd card, tried the same steps and it worked right away. Both cards are SanDisk Ultra. Any idea what could be causing this? I've tried over 10 times and even formating from my PC, and putting it back on my phone.

 

Thanks.

Yeeee. I just clicked check for update ????

The problem is that you have no accurate means to test for 2x CA. The engineering screen is partially broken.

 

Anyway, let it go. CA is not a big deal. One band 41 carrier is enough for anyone. If you get CA, you get CA. That is all.

I guess....

 

Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

And how do you know that CA is not working?

 

AJ

Because I have 1, two other of my friends have one, I live in a CA saturated market, we've tested. We've tested again with other phones that have CA (iphone 6s & GS6) and it just doesn't work....for now at least. Very disappointed

 

Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

Is it confirmed that this phone does CA on Sprint ?

 

Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

It's capable of, its the Snapdragon 808....BUT, its not working.

 

Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

Weird. Wish I could figure out how to debug it a bit more. Doubt its the phone since the nexus 6p did the exact same things. Only hardware in common was I used the same sim card. Maybe I should get it swapped.

Good idea.

Got my Moto X pure in the mail today after returning a Nexus 6P. I'm seeing the identical issue the 6P had where after hanging up a phone call the phone returns to 3G for 3-4 minutes before returning to LTE.

 

I'm wondering if it's just a bug in the newer Snapdragons, my Nexus 5 and LG G3 never have this issue. Guess I'll learn to live with it, I don't get that many phone calls.

I don't have that problem at all.

I know that lol, I mean how??? No one has the update yet

Just got my mxp yesterday and updated to marshmallow. I checked debug and it is still showing incorrect band info, looks to be exactly the same as what is posted here already. Any Qs about MM or MM install let me know. Nice phone overall kind of surprised its not more popular.

Marshmallow?

I wish everyone else was as appreciative as you. Some people complain their bill is so high but don't understand how much it'd be if they left Sprint and came back to a new plan with the same allowances. We're talking a minimum of an extra $20+/month per line. As long as Sprint doesn't have me change plans or give me a price increase, I'll stick with them for awhile. Unlimited everything with subsidy is truly a blessing.

Thanks... And heckkk yes.

I just upgraded with a 2 year contract at best buy two of my lines. $1 for a GS6 and $1 for a G4.... Legacy plan fully unlimited. No new plan comes close to the pricing or data! Love it and Sprint will continue honoring 2 year contracts for loyal customers.

I was playing around last night with RootMetrics, Sensorly, Open signal I came across something very weird/ interesting?

 

First of all, Boost mobile uses 100% of Sprint's towers correct? Not shared with another company? (Other than roaming obviously).

 

My observation is, I was looking at the mapping for Sprint and is very weak and many parts blank... Just for fun I switched to Boost thinking it was going going to be identical. Nope! Other than customer mapping, can anyone care to explain why Boost shows amazing coverage over Sprint "parent" company? See attached pics.

 

The difference is ridiculous.

Wow the irony. I called yesterday to inquire about the $20 1 gigabyte plan for my brother in law they told me that on my ED1500 plan I could add another line for $30! And later I could add more lines up to 10 with an overwrite permission. This is awesome. They noted it on my account, but approx a year back this was not possible. I had called once to do it and like stated here already, it required a brand new plan under my account.

So, not the iPhone 6? Sprint's own page indicates Sprint Spark as one of the key features.

It's not CA capable...only devices out this year.

The moto x pure does support b41 CA: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-389-teaser-hello-moto-x/

I know it does support it. That's one main reason why I bought it...but I don't think it's enabled. I don't see any other users reporting CA speeds either.
