    LTE CA DL: B2-B2, B2-B4, B2-B5, B2-B12, B2-B13, B2-B17, B2-B29, B4-B4, B4-B5, B4-B7, B4-B12, B4-B13, B4-B17, B4-B29, B41-B41I got that from the Google Play device specs. So for Sprint specifically, it's B41-B41.

    The intent of the discount is to increase the subscribers on Project Fi. Since your "game plan" was to order it, activate it, and immediately cancel service makes the offered discount pointless. Google basically used the phone subsidy business model without utilizing a contract in good faith that people would stick with the Project Fi service for at least a trial period. Basically, a loophole was found and extorted. Side note: I would bet that the reason they didn't utilizing a short contract such as 3 or 6 months is because of the current state of the industry.

    It's also happening on the 6P's. My friend got hers last night on and I got mine this morning as well. EDIT: Just checked my PRL, its on 55050. Not sure if that's what is was on before or if the 5X and 6P use the same.

    Not to mention the finger print scanner is awesome on the 6p. I would assume the same on the 5x but haven't used it personally. I always wanted to lock my phone but would be too impatient putting the pattern. With the 6p I can have it locked and unlock it seamlessly.

    Alright cool. Just making sure it wasn't just me. Nice analogy. I'm weird though, I actually have the dentist 'cool' lights in my room and normal 'warm' house lights everywhere else. Your analogy is a perfect example I see everyday haha. I also have a tiny ding out-of-the-box on the top left of the frame but it's covered with a case so I'm not gonna bother Google about it. So far I'm loving the 6P compared to the 6. Favorite thing so far is that I don't need to push the power button to wake it, just scan my finger. I'm on the side that agrees/supports the scanner on the back as opposed to the front, feels more natural. Just my $ 0.02.

    A question for those of you who have the nexus 6 and 6p. Has anyone compared the flash between the two phones? I used them both as flashlights at the same time and noticed the 6p has a yellow-ish tinge to it. Is anyone experiencimg this? I assume if it's consistent on 6p's then the camera is calibrated for it.

    That's usually how cool stuff happens, unexpectedly... If you haven't tried a hard reset, I would try that. If that doesn't work then contact Google for a replacement. Worse case you already did a hard reset to ship it back to them.

    I noticed that as well, especially for OC/LA areas. I think they making Enhanced LTE default if both are in that area and showing regular LTE if there's no Enhanced. Carrier coverage maps are notorious for exaggerating their coverage to market their service better. There are some spots in OC were LTE doesn't reach but you won't find those small gaps on their coverage map.

    The Nexus 6 from Sprint is a no go. Just tried it with my Sprint sold N6 and said invalid. So to further back up what AJ said, 3rd party is different from Sprint sold.

    First! Interesting that HTC will just swap devices. Pretty cool offering. Good write up.

    I had a similar issue. I use gmail for my gmail(obvious one there) and my outlook address. Sometimes I don't get notified of an email until 20 minutes after it was received. I've check the settings for each individual account and the settings for the app itself. I have both accounts set for push. It often ranges from 3-320 minute notification delay.

    Interesting. Damn, another awesome reason to buy the 6P, I'm trying not to spoil myself since my N6 is perfectly fine... I did mess up and originally typed 42. I fixed it after itsrobert pointed it out.
  13. HTCandroid
    Messed up, I meant B41.
  14. HTCandroid
    Noticed a 2nd carrier on my N6 near the Fullerton Airport. Closer to Beach Blvd. Sorry for the newb question but does the B41^2 mean I'm in an area with CA and just need a compatible device? Also did a speed test and got around 17 megs before killing the app. I don't like to let the speed test complete when testing the Sprint network so I don't cause congestion. I usually kill the Ookla after 4-5 when the speed tops off.

    Haven't noticed a change. I get 4g nearly everywhere. Only time my n6 drops to 3g is in stores and in few spots on my running trail, however, before the 6.0 update it wouldn't drop to 3g on my trail.
  16. HTCandroid
    NICE...I got the correct sim cards today, just need to order the 6p soon.

    Diztronic put their TPU case on preorder for the N6P on amazon! I've been a fan of them for awhile. If you're like me and like thin TPU cases that are plain with basically no logo check this one out. Another reason I like Distronic is because many TPU cases are flimsy on the sides and this brand tends to be the least from the ones I've tried. http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Diztronic-Slim-Fit-Flexible-Huawei/dp/B017DU6GMK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1446604561&sr=8-1&keywords=nexus+6p+case

    Correct me if I'm mistaken, but doesn't the Volume Down + Power method do all that?
  19. HTCandroid
    Did you use the "factory reset" in the settings or the volume down + power? Personally, I'm a fan of the volume down + power method.

    AJ posted sim specifics on the first page of the 5X thread. http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/7282-nexus-5x-user-thread-lg-h790/ Some Sprint stores either have them in stock and don't realize or understand and I have them. You can pay 10 bucks for the correct sim at Best Buy or chat/call with Sprint International to order the correct one.

    I remember as a kid having a dial TV that broke! To change the channel we had to get a pair of pliers. We stayed there until something good to watch was found. HAHAHA

    AJ, I jumped on your less at Super Nintendo! (Super Baseball 2020) haha =D Remember when the internet consisted of having to make sure no one in the house was expecting an important phone call before connecting? Kids these days don't even know the struggle...or having to clean the games on older gaming consoles... OR OR OR I have another. Before mobile phones and gaming devices were invented. Or when they got color screens!

    I wish Google gave some recognition for this site like Sprint and other sites have. There are so many people who come to this site for new information and solutions when interested in new devices. This community basically provides free troubleshooting for Sprint (in some cases other carriers) and device manufactures. Not to mention I would pick here for troubleshooting questions before calling carriers and manufacturers. Sorry, went on little bit of a rant...
  24. HTCandroid
    Hopefully they will help replace it. Even if they say buy the $89 insurance and they will replace it is better than nothing...

    Whether you call or chat, the rep should guide you through the process and guide you. Basically, leave the phone off with the sim in it until the device ID and sim ID are both registered to your phone number. The rep will let you know when to power on the device and it should auto activate. If it doesn't, the rep will guide you through it. If you go into a store, the rep will most likely just take care of it.
