While not a total solution, hangouts WiFi calling works pretty well.. Won't help with incoming calls however, but calls you make should sound great.

New article out http://www.kansascity.com/news/business/technology/article3528236.html

I've read that softcard can be loaded with a credit card, which makes it a good option for racking up reward points. Shame it's not available on Sprint, and it doesn't work on T-mobile pre-paid or iPhones either.

The G3 would have been nearly a perfect phone if they had skipped the QHD screen and stayed with 1080p with 2 days of battery life
-
Yeah, I read a bunch of the threads over on XDA, sound like several people are having problems with this ROM because it's built off the international GSM firmware and not CDMA. It's probably saver to run a ROM that someone created from the Sprint variant. At this point, I'll probably just keep it stock until there is a good Android 5.0 based ROM available.
-
So you spend $480 and at the end of 2 years you don't own the phone? That's seems like a poor financial decision. You can go on eBay today and buy a new in box clean esn s5 for $420 or less and own it. In 2 years if you want a new phone you can sell the s5 and probably get $200 for it.

How is Cloudy G3 working for you? I just bumped my phone, and will try flashing that ROM.. Hopefully will get a good bump in smoothness and battery life.

That's a bummer.. As far as I can tell WiFi calling includes sms and it all works well.

T-Mobile LTE & Network Discussion
coorsleftfield replied to CriticalityEvent's topic in General Topics
I've really wanted to like tmobile. I've tried switching a few times but ended up canceling. First time was for zero bars in my lab at work, second was for no data coverage at our cabin. Here in Phoenix Sprint LTE coverage is starting to match Tmo. Tmobile still has better speeds but it's not enough of a difference in real world use to make up for the other lack of coverage . I do really like how they basically changed the entire wireless industry with their uncarrier movement. -
With sprint autopay can't you just give them a credit card? Get a well Fargo visa, use it for autopay, get the sprint fee waved and pick up free phone insurance at the same time. Win win.
-
Are you using auto brightness? I've never heard of anyone getting 8 hours SOT. All the reviews I've read where they actually tested the phone get about 4-5 max, which is what I'm seeing as well. Standby is great, but as soon as the screen is on, I can watch the battery gauge drop.
-
Quiet around here.. Everyone still happy with their G3 purchase, except for the poor battery life?
-
Yes it works for text. An even better solution is to enable full Google voice integration and use hangouts for SMS which will be delivered over data or cellular.
-
Let me know if you need another beta tester on Android 5
-
They waive the charge if you sign up for autopay and ebill, so it all seems like a non issue. I'm not on Asl so maybe I'm missing something?

I'd love a separate audio alert for B41/26 for those of us I'm Spark markets that are being built out. I'm always watching for new B41 towers and have to leave the signal check screen on as I drive around and glance at the phone today.

They are $59.99 shipped from Amazon FYI.

Where Apple got it wrong IMHO is they should have made the phone like the Nexus 5/6 and included all radios so I could buy an iPhone direct from Apple, and it on at least Sprint/TMO/ATT. They made the right decision not going QHD. That said, 4K videos on youtube come across to the G3 in 1440P and they do look awesome in that resolution, you can tell a difference between that and 1080p for sure, but I still don't think its worth the battery life. Maybe in the future when most video is 4K it will be worth it. I think QHD is here to stay now that the note 4 went there. I just hope we don't get into a resolution pissing contest with 2015 phones coming with 4K displays and horrible battery life.
-
I have a G3 and don't recommend it. Battery life is poor because of the unnecessary quad HD display. Phone is also laggy. I also prefer the size of my nexus 5 when it comes to putting the phone into my front jeans pocket.

Looks like my battery/cradle shipped as well, and I bought the phone on launch day, not during the dates of the promotion, but I filled it out and sent it in anyway.. Should be delivered today

No debt is the way to go. If you have to get a loan for a car, you can't afford the car. Same goes for.. Anything else. If you have debt, follow the Dave Ramsey plan and get rid of it. I paid cash for my used car. I. Could have afforded new but why? Used meant I didn't have to pay sales tax here in AZ, that saved $2500 alone not even counting the depreciation when you drive off the lot. Same reason a lot of us are with Sprint and sero. We are cheapskates and proud of it

Was there a deductible?

I think this is the best part about the TEP insurance- immediate phone replacement for those who can't be without a phone for even a day. I've worked around this by keeping a spare N5 around just in case my primary phone goes out, but if you don't have a spare phone, insurance is a must, or you might be without a phone for weeks.
