  1. That was oddly a specific number so I couldn't tell. I would have used something like 2099 or 3000....
  2. Just checked my screenshot. My dream was crushed haha. YUP, ends in 11...... Edit. Explain this to me. When it says "B26: it's better than when it says B25. I'm assuming it's just a different cell site connected to, however, when it does say "B26" it's faster, around 13 Mbps where as B25 is unusable.
  3. Noticed this week at work that my phone has been connecting to B26. It may have been sooner than this week but I had Signal Check off from displaying in my status part. My N6P likes to bounce between B41 and B26 depending on where I am (I work in a big building moving throughout it all day). My location is near the 5 Freeway on Orangethorpe (Northern OC).
  4. So I noticed today that I have the Google Assistant on my N6P. Out of habit I hold home button due to the original Google Now on the N7 2012. After holding a pop-up came up asking to activate the assistant. I am completely stock but am enrolled in the beta program. My build number is NPG05F, Android 7.1.2. My Google App version is 6.13.25.21.arm64. My Google Now Launcher version is 1.4.large.
  5. Something similar happened to my brother's 6p when we went snowboarding a while back. It shut down on him and when we got down the mountain he turned it back on and still had about 20%, during most of the day it was in airplane mode since reception is spotty on the drive up. Mine was completely dead as I was using it for music and was not in airplane mode but I did notice the battery drain faster than normal even with spotty coverage and normal usage.
  6. So far I haven't noticed any changes. I'm in good B41 coverage. Maps bugged out on me 3 times in a row this morning but I don't think its safe to assume it's from the update. As most of us read, no additional functions from the finger print scanner.
  7. My N6P started downloading the new beta: 7.1.2 (NPG05F).
  8. Nah, just updating everyone. Last I read was it should release "soon" but we all know that usually isn't the case.
  9. As of today, 2/7/2017, the beta for the 6P has not been posted....
  10. Another easy way to talk to someone is keep pressing 0 when you call Customer Support or your local corporate store. That's what I always do.
  11. Hey guys, random question. I know many members of S4GRU are mobile device experts and use various carriers depending on their location and what works best. My question is does anyone know the correct Verizon sim for the iphone 7/7+? I currently have a sim labelled "DFILL 4FF-NFC-A" with the UPC code 840168090693. I bought my dad an unlocked/sim-free iphone 7+ for xmas and was wondering if that sim will work and allow the device to fully take advantage of Verizon's network. I understand this might not be the best place to ask and I thank everyone in advance for any information.
  12. Looks like all colors of the Pixel XL 32gb are currently expected to ship by November 23 for anyone who has been waiting for Google to replenish their supply chain. I'm currently waiting to see if they offer some sort of discount closer to Christmas as they did with the Nexus 6P (hoping they do a discount despite the Pixel's success).
  13. Interesting move by T-Mobile. https://9to5google.com/2016/10/27/t-mobile-will-offer-up-to-half-the-cost-of-a-pixel-to-anyone-who-brings-their-pixel-to-its-network/
  14. Or Google Fi it for a month if you don't mind spending the extra money to play with it...
  15. Similar to how the 6P was if I recall correctly. Got restocked after the return window for initial shipments and offered a sale. I'm hoping for $80 discount in November instead of the free VR.
  16. Sprint even sold the Nexus S with built-in WiMax!!!!!! For those who remember WiMax... I was one of the lucky few to live next to a site in Orange County, CA.
  17. That. Would. Be. Awesome. If Sprint started carrying it. Would be good for consumers as well if AT&T and T-Mobile as well. I feel like if other there were plans they would have announced it during their event. Unless Google tries to push for other carries since the Note 7 is discontinued and they wanted to attempt to gain that market share... Here's to hoping.
  18. He might mean purchasing another device via upgrade and selling it to use towards the Pixel..?? Try sprint.com. I noticed I can upgrade through the website now with my Sero 500 plan. In the past I would have to call in and be transferred to the employee line even though I didn't work there anymore.
  19. Where do I go if I want to invest? I feel like you guys are headed in the direction of unveiling a revolutionary product. I keep pushing my credit card into my computer monitor and it isn't taking my money! Also, is there a sign up page..????
  20. I also went digging in my Play Store account and remembered that I purchased the N6P when it went on sale with $50 off. I think the sale started around Black Friday and ended on New Years. Hopefully that some indication that the Pixel will be reduced around the same time and possibly offer greater discounts since the starting price is $270 greater (comparing the 6P to the Pixel XL).
  21. Yea, I'm not gonna lie. I get jealous when seeing the iPhone 7 commercial of the dude in his garage about to go bicycling after seeing a storm out of the window.
  22. Verizon being Verizon... As most people here would expect this it is confirmed. https://9to5google.com/2016/10/06/google-confirms-that-verizon-will-handle-system-updates-for-pixels-it-sells-but-google-will-still-manage-security-updates/
  23. I'd probably keep the N6P since I probably can't get that much for it and it's a great device. I'm disappointed that it isn't sold through other carriers at its price point even though I know historically Nexus devices didn't well well through the carriers.
  24. Debating on using my upgrade for an iPhone 7+ and selling it and my N6P to get this phone. I have been sitting on an upgrade for over a year now (yes my older plan still allows upgrades). What do you guys think??? Worth it?
