  1. Any band 41? Did you run any speed tests during peak times just to see what it was?
  2. I had the same problem. Navigate to c: / program files / on your computer, then I think it's shift or control + right click on the iTunes folder, "open command prompt here." Then, just type "iTunes.exe /setpref (whatever the code is). If it just returns a new command line without error messages, it worked.
  3. Here are my current battery stats. I guess it isn't too bad today, but something is causing my usage to always equal my standby, which doesn't seem right. I only have a weather app that occasionally pings my location, and is showing background activity, and 2% battery usage in 4 days. Nothing else is showing background activity. I'm jailbroken, so I wonder if I have a rogue tweak.
  4. Not many. I use "storm" for weather with its "follow me" location feature for alerts. This has used 1% of my battery in 3 days, so that's not a problem. I stream SiriusXM at work, and sometimes Apple Music/Spotify. Just a regular 6. I guess I should update my profile. When I had the plus, it was only marginally better than my 6.
  5. My battery is just garbage most of the time. It's really the biggest, and maybe the only downside to owning an iPhone. I've just learned to deal with charging my phone twice a day.
  6. I tried that with my wife...once. "Take this thing back. How do I get my iPhone back?"
  7. Since Sprint is the official sponsor, I wonder if they'll do something similar? One would hope they can at least match this: Verizon adding small cells in Grant Park to boost data capacity for Lollapalooza http://www.myfoxchicago.com/story/29640909/verizon-adding-small-cells-in-grant-park-to-boost-data-capacity-for-lollapalooza
  8. No. I went back to 8.4 (for the second time). I got the command line code to take, then the shift+restore/selecting the IPCC file worked. It showed the meter like it was loading. The phone still shows 20.1, rebooted, same thing. Not sure how to get it to take. Sent from my iPhone 6
  9. Guys, I'm trying to enable the carrier testing in iTunes, but I keep getting this error. Any ideas? C:\Users\Vincent>C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe /setPrefInt carrier-testing 1 'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Edit: I figured it out by opening a command prompt from the iTunes folder. Now, i've loaded it, but its not showing on the phone? Any tips?
  10. Every iPhone user is logged into their iCloud account from the first time they activate their phone, and that works throughout the phone for everything. It's not like we have to login to iMessage. Sent from my iPhone 6
  11. I'm shocked that hangouts hasn't been baked into Android similar to iMessage. I was also shocked to learn that Android M will introduce native visual voicemail. Two things Android should have been all over. Sent from my iPhone 6
  12. That's why iMessage is the superior messaging service. Every iDevice has it, and you don't have to run around asking people to download this app and that app. 95% of my communications are iMessage, and I rarely rack up more than 100 text messages. The SMS I do receive are mostly from my Chase bank alerts. Sent from my iPhone 6
  13. When I spoke to (presumably) a Chicago network engineer, he told me they're optimizing clusters slowly. He told me the market is mostly B26 deployed, but can't be cranked up because of neighboring interference from some kind of old Nextel repeaters/amplifiers that are still in operation, and haven't been decommissioned. He said as those come down, optimization can proceed. Sent from my iPhone 6
  14. BlueParrott 250xt+ (the truck driver headset). It never used to do this. I've tried unpairing/pairing, and it's still doing it. It's weird how sounds output through the phone, but it's still accepting voice input through the headset microphone. Sent from my iPhone 6
  15. Can anyone here running iOS 9 test something for me? When you have a Bluetooth headset connected, and press the headset button to activate Siri, do you hear the Siri beep from the phone speaker, or the headset? I have this weird issue (which I've reported) where the beep, and subsequent Siri voice output through the speaker when it used to be in my headset. Sent from my iPhone 6
  16. I'm running the public, and I have it. Someone else would have to chime in about the regular beta having it. Maybe you can try and install the public beta profile? Like I said, when still on 8.4, installing the profile gave me that app. Sent from my iPhone 6
  17. That's why I'll always be an Apple customer. You can't get that kind of service from anyone else. My wife's phone was running hot, and battery life sucked...boom, new phone. Sent from my iPhone 6
  18. That's strange. That app comes with the public beta profile. I even had it on 8.4 before upgrading. Sent from my iPhone 6
  19. I don't get the purpose of the left search home screen in iOS 9. It's basically the same as the pull-down spotlight search. It seems repetitive, and I hope they get rid of it. Sent from my iPhone 6
  20. I started paying full price for my phone 2 years ago with the iPhone 5s. This way, I always have phone equity which allows me to easy pay the newest iPhone, sell the old one, pay off the new one, rinse and repeat. Sent from my iPhone 6
  21. I think phone manufacturers are steering away from the fundamentals of what makes a phone, well, a great phone. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Just make the battery bigger, add carrier aggregation, and make the damn phone have incredibly strong antennas. I would buy on those upgrades alone. I want people to drool over the RF performance like they once did for the nexus 5. Sent from my iPhone 6
  22. This should probably be moved to the iPhone 6/6+ thread. This is a rumor thread. Sent from my iPhone 6
  23. I would love a single-sku iPhone for all providers, paired with the Apple Sim. One phone, one sim, end the confusion about compatibility once and for all. Sent from my iPhone 6
  24. Facebook is terribly slow on 9b3 Sent from my iPhone 6
  25. I guess you're right, now that I think about it. Even the current switcher does this. Guess I never noticed until they made it a carousel. Sent from my iPhone 6
