  1. When I bought my MacBook Air the first thing I did was look for a large external drive and I bought this one. At first I was trying to get a thunderbolt one but there're too expensive so I settled for USB 3.0. All I had to do was format it for Mac OSX. I see it's dropped at least $20 since January. Seagate Expansion 3TB Desktop External Hard Drive USB 3.0 (STBV3000100) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00834SJU8/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_9CS9tb0GNR0EG Sent from my iPhone 5S using Tapatalk
  2. Usually the first couple batches have weird issues but when the hype slows down the phones tend to be better. I just had to get my lifeproof case replaced because the volume switch was tearing basically compromising the "waterproofness" of the case. This new case is a million times better than my first one. It's stiffer and feels more solidly put together. Also the screen protector is clearer and whites are white rather than an off grey.
  3. How would that work if you're on a family plan and you have more than on phone on easy pay? Currently we don't have any phones on easy pay. But I know my dad can't take his S3 anymore and wants a new phone soon because it's starting to randomly shut off. And I might sell my 5S for a 6 so if there's 2 phones where would the money go?
  4. I'm a huge fan of Lifeproof cases and was wondering about how long does it take them to release their cases after the new iPhone launches? I know you guys can't give me an exact answer but for past launches would it take like a month or 2 months?
  5. Thanks [emoji16] and another question this iPhone won't be eligible for the new unlocking rules right because it's not manufactured or released in 2015?
  6. I just went on Sprints website and it says you can pay more than your installment if you choose to but it doesn't say where you can do that
  7. So you can do that?? That's great!!! I don't really want to raise our bill up that much and hopefully I'll get a job soon so I can pay it because I want a 32 GB or 64! 16 GB shouldn't be standard anymore unless you have a SD card and Apple isn't going to add one anytime soon
  8. I have a quick question: if I sell my 5S to buy a 6 on easy pay can I use the money from my 5S as a down payment for the 6 so the monthly charge is less? I don't really know how easy pay and the other installment plans work. Thanks [emoji16] (Did sprint get rid of early upgrades for long term customers because I remember they had that a while back)
  9. I don't remember when or how I found this site but I was definitely lurking for awhile before I made my account. This site has immensely reinforced my long "love" affair with Sprint because it's been the only carrier for my parents since the mid 90's. Even when Sprint forcefully kicked terminated my contract for excessive roaming due to NV "rip and replace" (and no lower band service on my iPhone 4 causing me to roam almost constantly while at school ) I never lost hope for Sprint. The amazing people here at S4GRU brought me back to Sprint last November and I've generally been quite happy coming from my hiatus with AT&T. Now that B26 development has just started in my market I'm incredibly happy to be a Sprint customer because the wait for best network in the US is coming to an end. Personally this is the only US carrier that has a soul and is only really shown through the exceptional work the members and staff on this site have put into it. And lastly BIG THANKS to Robert for starting this site because it's a great and tightly knit community that is easily one of the best tech forums on the internet. Here's to S5GRU
  10. Sorry I didn't see this until now because taptalk wasn't giving me notifications [emoji58] I though S4GRU was broken
  11. I'm at the same spot where I found B26 the other day but I'm only connecting to B25 from the same site [emoji17] Edit: Just connected to B26 from the same site and I have a hunch that it's coming from the site on Alameda hospital. But I haven't figured out that sites Cell ID and physical ID yet.
  12. Yeah I'm in Alameda but live on Bayfarm and get amazing speeds on an underutilized B25 site. Most people here have Verizon/AT&T here so I get amazing speeds when I'm at home but I'd rather use my Comcast 50+ MBs wifi
  13. No I was talking about the coverage at my school is beyond horrible. Weirdly there's a tmobile site right in the middle of the campus [emoji107] and a Verizon site a block away.
  14. Well that sucks. Anyway I'm happy that B26 has started deployment because schools about to start and coverage is beyond horrible
  15. Thanks last night I was trying to use the Cell ID against the maps but was confused why they didn't match up.
  16. Well there's this page but it doesn't load any info no matter how long I let it sit on that page. Thanks for the quick reply but I think you were referring to Signal Check Pro which I can't get because I'm on an iPhone.
  17. So how do I use the iPhone field test mode to determine what site my LTE is coming from?
  18. Just wondering how can I figure out which site this is coming from?
  19. Just wondering what's the threshold for the network to switch you to B26?
  20. GREAT NEWS!!!!! I'm on a walk right on the Bay trail on Bayfarm and just spotted B26 and was able to get a speed test and a field test screenshot!!!!
  21. I hope this is coming from Alameda!!!!! [emoji16]
  22. Thanks I've always wondered why iPhones don't have issues connecting to LTE in markets that have eCSFB issues Sent from my iPhone 5S using Tapatalk
  23. Just curious do iPhones also rely on eCSFB or do they use some Apple "magic"?? Sent from my iPhone 5S using Tapatalk
  24. I started reading that forum but I couldn't really comprehend what exactly was being said. I've also kinda started posting after being a long time member (around 2 years) but never a sponsor since I'm still in high school [emoji53] Sent from my iPhone 5S using Tapatalk
  25. Thanks hopefully they get to start deploying soon because this market really needs B26!!!! Just curious did you find that out from the premier sponsor forums or your own research? Sent from my iPhone 5S using Tapatalk
