    That looks quite good! My guess earlier was T5GRU, but I'm now wondering if perhaps the name, if carrying the same theme, ought to be TMO5GRU. The reason being is the known short name for T-Mobile has been TMO for quite a long time. TMO5GRU sounds more connected to T-Mobile than just "T" or even "TM".

    However, I personally think this would be a great time for this site to get away from the connection with a wireless "Generation", instead being titled after wireless network technology in general. The other issue is, does this site want to go from a very strong, loyal Sprint/Network enthusiast site, to being a T-Mobile one.

    While I acknowledge this site's connection with Sprint first and foremost, the other strong point to this site that has differentiated itself from other sites, is the knowledgeable network-centric aspect to this site, a unique network focus to say, XDAdevelopers phone modification focus, TmoNews' T-Mobile focus, and the several Android websites focused on Android.

    Of course I don't exactly know what Robert has in mind, plans he has, and so on. Still, I'm going to suggest the same thing I've been for a while now here. I personally suggest the site become more of a general wireless forum, as an alternative to HowardForums, but with a strong network-focus, and also continue with the member-driven support system S4GRU has relied on for funding for a long time up to now, without the advertising HowardForums has.

    I have a few naming ideas, if the domains are available.

     

    Mobile Networking Observance

    Mobile Networking Obsession

    Mobile Networking Odyssey

    or as a nod to Sprint's past, Mobile Networking Overland

     

    Being that Mobile Networking is the soul of the site -the heart being Sprint, any variation to my suggestion of no longer following the generation sequence in naming, and the movement to a general wireless basis, ought to at least recognize the big focus of the site, this here being mobile networking. The reason I'm suggesting using the "O" at the end, is for an easy flow to the name, similar to how GRU sounds. Alphabetically, O being after N, which itself is after M, flows really nicely. MNO, which also sounds close to TMO and the famous Sprint cell site term GMO. The representation options for "O" I presented, while "Overland" is a nice gesture to the Sprint hq, my preference is "Obsession".

    I did it for fun, but isn't a easy decision because this site has been known as S4GRU for so long.

    I'm on the same boat, this has grown into a site with a bunch of "nerds" and gurus of networking that could expand easily into tech of others providers, the top site to find tech info about networking technologies and all deployments.

    Power is back again on the town and phone is on B25. B13 was good while it lasted. I'm anxious for B13 to come online! B25 in my town is afwul. See for yourself in the screenshot... This is every single day.AjtOdaz.jpg

    Does the the B13 signal was when connected to Las Guaras tower? or the one in el Guama?

    With everything going on in Puerto Rico and the USVI, this tweet by Marcelo (understandably) received little fanfare, but is significant going forward imo:

    Its been crazy here in PR, since Hurricane Maria hit us. 12 days without service, no power, no water, no internet, no local tv channels, a complete blackout on communications. Gas station lines are hours long, few food spots with limited menu's, only cellphone provider up its Claro and very spotty, they agree to bring roam to tmobile and att.

    On the sprint side, we don't have any info, if someone here can bring some light or news on repair time will be great. Things don't looks good.

  4. I grabbed two 32gb blues on the 29th, i was looking for a white 64gb but i didnt was able to buy it. I hope google sent them soon, it would be a slap in the face to everyone that tried to buy or actually buy them on playstore if the carriers have them on the 12th before the play order are shipped. Mine said to be shipped on nov. 21.

  5. it may not help you now, but anyone still having problems might try logging out of your facetime account on your phone/device, then re-logging, making sure your facetime contact info (phone#/email) is correct.

    Thanks, yes we tried that, including sign out of imessage account also, after the OTA to 7.0.6 the problem went away, could be a bug of 7.0.4.

  6. Wasted an hour with sprint chat and over the phone, still the same problem. Did with them reprovision account, they do there stuff and at the end they told me to restore or contact apple.

     

    I did try facetime audio only and it doesnt work. On the other device over wifi I receive the incoming call and answer it but both get stuck on connecting...

     

    It looks im not alone..
