If T-Mobile does move all of B41 to 5G then that would render any magic boxes pointless, right?

Not in a state like Wisconsin where I live. T-Mobile has no B12 here because of USCC and very little spectrum of anything else.

From the PC Mag article: "Over the next several years, T-Mobile intends to move Sprint LTE customers off that spectrum and use it all for 5G." So does that mean eventually B41 4G will be gone!?

Not sure if these are a couple of TM employees but I read the following on Reddit: "All 100% compatible T-Mobile compatible devices will be getting an OTA update between now and July, registering the devices on both networks, many of the newer devices are reporting it looks like T-MOBILE bands are the priority and they now fall back on the sprint network. Which is ultimately the goal. Over half of sprints currently activated devices are 100% T-Mobile compatible. If they can get as many devices onto T-Mobile’s network now, it lessens the blow when they start network integration" "The OTA will be for the SIM card and not the devices. What they will do is set the T-Mobile PLMN as the 2nd home network on the SIM cards and the devices will see the T-Mobile network as native." From: https://www.reddit.com/r/Sprint/comments/g4aoxs/this_is_how_to_disable_sprint_bands_on_the_pixel/

I hope they don't do that in the Wisconsin market yet. T-Mobile B71 is maybe on just a few towers in the Milwaukee area, they cannot do B12 due to USCC, and Sprint here is subpar but at least they have B26. Not looking forward to the merging of two inferior carriers When does TM have to shut down B26? Or when do they plan to?

I don't have the S20, just forced reg B71 on my S10 4G

FYI you can force bands on Samsung using shortcut master. I used it to look for B71.. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

Feb security update is slow coming this time...

Last year Samsung had aggressive trade in, as well as buy 1 get 1 free offers. We'll see if they offer anything like that to lessen the blow.

Wonder what is taking so long for the final release in the US. It has been released on the Exynos version around the world for a few weeks now.

When will the Android 10/S10 fixes hit the regular release? The program is unusable right now due to it crashing constantly Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

Has anyone roamed on T-mobile B71 on the Sprint S10? I assume since it isn't in LTE priority it isn't enabled yet? Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

New update for the beta out. Quite a number of fixes. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

What phone do you have? I noticed 71 isn't in my Sprint S10 data priority list even on the Android 10 Beta. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

Band 71 roaming has not been enabled yet, right?

It does feel a little more sluggish to me. Not surprising since it is beta. Any comments on signal? Maybe just a fluke, but a VoLTE call seemed to be better in a spot that has weak signal.

New LTE size Anyone having issues with SignalCheck Pro crashing? I sent bug report. I am going to clear system cache too in bootloader. (Actually seems OK now after doing that/rebooting)

It took about a minute for it to show a new update in Software Updates under Settings after tapping on Register in the Members app. If that doesn't work, probably do as suggested above.. clear cache in the Members app and see if you can reregister.

Yup downloading now Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

The release time was 12PM Pacific today apparently but the app has been down most of the morning...

Rumors are that the beta will start on Monday, possibly at 10AM. Not sure what time zone that is. Opt in the Samsung Members app.

What is going on with Sprint and the S10 and updates. Seems like we have been the last to get them. Usually Sprint is good in that regard. Are they tinkering with the modem firmware and can't decide what works or not?

My CA. I checked under the LTE band priority and they haven't added T-mobile B71 yet.. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

August update finally out. Was 500MB+ and also forced a profile update after install so there must be some kind of modem update. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
