  1. I wonder if this is a known glitch, and if Sprint is working on a fix. Is there anything that I can do with tech support? Sent from my iPhone 6+
  2. I don't get HD calls with my wife anymore. Actually, in quite some time. I do, however, get them with my brother every once in a while. We all have iPhone 6's. I read somewhere that having wifi calling activated on your account may possibly disable HD, but I'm not sure how that makes sense. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  3. I'm banking on waiting outside my local store for a 64gb plus. I was also thinking that they might not get that model on launch day. On the other hand, I'm afraid of the annual preorder glitch, and getting locked out of their website, only to finally process an order, and have it tell me "back ordered until November." For those that have successfully preordered, and go into the initial shipment, was your phone at your house on launch day, or is that when it ships? Sent from my iPhone 6+
  4. Personally, I wouldn't, and only because I know I'm getting one, so a (potentially) second one might be pointless. I am, however, planning on donating next week for the Moto X because it seems like a cool device, and would be fun to play with. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  5. I can't remember the pattern that Apple follows. It's announcement tomorrow, preorder Friday, September 11th/iOS 9 release, launch Friday, September 18th? Sent from my iPhone 6+
  6. Seems too easy. Have you tested it? Sent from my iPhone 6+
  7. You're getting the runaround from Sprint reps. There is NO limit for domestic unlocks per account. There is, however, a limit on international unlocks. Call them back. Edit: and besides, you don't need both unlocks. A DSU unlocks the sim slot completely, making it fully compatible with an international sim, too. Their specific international unlock is only for traveling customers who don't own their device. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  8. That's why you should have Apple Care. TEP will cost $132 compared to $99. If you never lose your phone, then paying the $75 Apple Care deductible makes sense for damage such water or a major drop. Apple Care plus 1 deductible is still less than the $200 Sprint deductible plus $132 annual cost. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  9. It is a roll of the dice with eBay, and their 10% cut is terrible. I had a mint, unlocked 6 64gb with AppleCare (still with 2 claims) sell for $610 on eBay last night. It's a little low, but I wasn't getting any bites from Craigslist (which has never happened), and needed to sell it. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  10. How can you tell the roaming partner from iPhone field test? I just got back from Wisconsin, and was curious who I was using up there. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  11. It's no different. You can buy the extended care for any iPhone that's new, and you can also have it serviced for free within the first year no matter if it's paid in full, on easy pay, or leased. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  12. My favorite perk of Apple. You actually received a brand new phone, not refurbished. I've asked numerous employees in different stores, and they do not give customers refurbs. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  13. Yes. I signed up 2 weeks ago, and the Sprint site says I'm upgrade eligible as of 9/1, so I can preorder, or walk in and get it. You're upgrade eligible on iPhone forever every time there's a new model. Say you get the 6S in 2 weeks, and apple decides to drop the 7 in March. You'll be eligible for it. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  14. Forget it. It's been impossible to load a custom PRL to an iPhone since the iPhone 5. Apple changed something starting with the 5s that ended that. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  15. I think the spinning logo was confusing people. I always saw on various forums people saying "I should have spark; I have that little spinning thingy." Plus, it was annoying. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  16. Schlotzskys in Orland Park was my first job 14 years ago. They had awesome sandwiches. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  17. Well, it's simple: do you plan on ever leaving Sprint, and don't mind the additional monthly cost? If not, just do iPhone Forever because it's cheaper than easy pay, and you don't have to worry about getting it unlocked and selling it. If you can afford to pay full-price, then go that route. I like this lease because I can go case-less, and not have to worry about scratching the phone. Normal wear is ok for the return, as long as the screen isn't cracked. I was always obsessed with keeping a pristine device for when it came time to sell it. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  18. "We take your $130/month for 2gb and a phone...check." Sent from my iPhone 6+
  19. I'll be on the couch, watching the Apple TV stream. I guess I can type a few things. I wonder if this will finally be the year where I can watch without the stream being cut off, or overdubbed with a Chinese lady. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  20. I spent 4 hours in a bar last night for my fantasy draft, and had 3G and 1x inside the whole time. Thank god for wifi. I lost about 50% battery in that span with minimal usage, just from having my phone in my pocket. Understandable, but, the problem is AT&T, Verizon, and even T-Mobile can have their devices NOT lose LTE inside small buildings with windows around the Chicagoland area. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  21. The price is right on that phone, too. It felt great in my hand, and the edge-to-edge glass is nice. I don't know who is making the Nexus this year, but if it's LG, they only need to beef up the specs on the N5 to have another serious winner. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  22. When I was playing with a G4 a few weeks ago, I also had terrible battery life. The phone ran hot, and drained super quick. This was stock, out of the box with a few apps added. I think skinned Android in general is just a battery draining pig, full of background processes doing a million things. This leaves a bad taste for iPhone users who occasionally take peek at that other side of mobile life. I did like my nexus 5 last year. It was a very fast, clean, no bullsh*t device. If it had a better camera, a better battery, and visual voicemail, I may have used it for a very long time. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  23. I think the 64 is my sweet spot. I have a ton of apps, and around 2000 photos/100 videos, and very little music stored locally (I mostly stream XM). I have everything backing up to iCloud, and I've selected the "optimize photos" option which shaved off 5gb of my storage. I still have 47gb free. Sent from my iPhone 6+
  24. Does anyone know what you need to give back on a Sprint lease? Is it only the phone? Or the box and accessories, too. Sent from my iPhone 6+
