  1. No, I am not in that area. I was just asking the question.
  2. What happens if you are in an area that has Sprint LTE data coverage but there is no Sprint voice coverage? What happens if someone tries to call you in an area like that. An example area code is 17265.
  3. Here is a screenshot of my Android version and a screenshot of the restrict background data option for the Flipboard app:
  4. I still see the Restrict Background Data option under each individual app.
  5. It's the May update. I already have it installed so I can't get a changelog screenshot. The android security patch level is May 1, 2016.
  6. http://www.androidexplained.com/galaxy-s6-wipe-cache-partition/
  7. Just remember to clear you cache and cache partition after all updates. To avoid and/or rule out (not saying you will not have any issues after updates) any issues with that. :-) At least, that's what I do after every update, big or small.
  8. No, small cells aren't connected to "home" broadband connections. The backhaul for them are either a B41 connection to a macro tower OR they pay for a local ISP to provide access to it. The internet connection isn't from anyone's home.
  9. If you're away from your home, in that area with a small cell, then you get better data coverage.
  10. Turns out to be nothing. They responded to my email and said the power company is just replacing a pole. False alarm.
  11. No, I didn't even know you could. Thanks, I'll give that a try right now.
  12. It looks like there's a new tower going up close to where I work. There are trucks there with what looks like long mono-pole tower type ....structures. It's right by a powerline tower that's not Sprint's. Hopefully the new tower IS Sprint! Here's the location. https://goo.gl/maps/cvxvZTi3r922
  13. I would disagree that AT&T and VZW didn't see T-Mobile as a real competitor when they deployed fiber, but I could be wrong.
  14. Yeah, I'd agree with you. Where I am right now, I just did a speedtest with -112 B41 signal. Ping: 29, Download: 42Mbps, Upload: 5.5Mbps.
  15. I looks like the coverage map was updated today. I can't tell any differences though.
  16. So that they can cover more people and with that, they are able to have more customers. For me, I can have native coverage in more areas. There are areas around here where they have "holes" in coverage. In certain areas, everything around it is covered, but in that area, it's roaming. Now, I don't travel a lot to areas where they don't have coverage, but when I travel to see my parents, I am roaming all the time I'm there. But that's just me in that case.
  17. Does anyone know where I can find bluetooth drivers for the GS6 with Android 6? When I try to connect my phone to my PC now, it doesn't work. And I can see 2 bluetooth devices in device manager that need drivers. I'm assuming that's because the phone is using Android 6 now. (It used to work with Android 5). I'm on Windows 7 (64-bit). Thanks.
  18. Looks like a security update is out for the GS6: https://community.sprint.com/baw/message/1041039#1041039
  19. Mine was updated last night. It's still working fine.
