  1. I would be interested to hear more stories about RF performance. What is everyone seeing?
  2. Come on guys, I'm trying to be pissy and the get this thing back on track and even the admins are throwing pizza under this thread jacked buss. Now I have the munchies ... Screw it. I'm ordering pizza.
  3. Yes, displaying 3G while on 1X dishonest and deceptive. All three of the Sprint Android devices I have owned have done this. However, neither of the iPhones my wife has owned have had this "feature." Modifying Android devices so they lie to their owners needs to stop. Does anyone remember when iPhones were lying to users about how good their signal was and showing too many bars? I don't remember that going over very well.
  4. travismheim is right. I have Hangouts installed and use it exactly in this fashion. It only accesses Google Voice voicemail and messages that are sent to the GV phone number. My stock messaging app handles normal messaging.
  5. No problems here. I think I see a phone call to a sprint CSR in your future. (Or an online chat session. I think I like those better.)
  6. That doesn't happen to me either. Are you rooted and can you get a log to see maybe what's causing your screen to wake like that? Maybe some app that's going bonkers from time to time?
  7. I do not have Google+ installed but I have my Google acct, Facebook, and LinkedIn synced to my contacts (among others) with tons of apps accessing said contacts and have not experienced this even once on OA6 on my GS5. I did fumigate my phone beforehand, though. Meaning: I Odin'd in the full OA6 tar ... but only after formatting internal flash memory as well as deleting the Android folder from the removable sdcard.
  8. Yes. Sweet. Thanks for the tip. Things have been better since they lit up B41 in the area. Though I do hope they do this for Arrowhead (right next door) before this fall. The 75,000 at a Chiefs game sets up a mobile black hole for non-Spark Sprint users.
  9. I ended up setting my GV account to Do Not Disturb. The only side effect I can see is that text messages sent to the GV number do not produce a notification on the phone. But since I use my GV # for voice mail only, that's fine with me. With DND set to ON, all calls to the GV # go straight to voice mail, which is what I want.
  10. That 800 MHz band better be a fine tuned machine before the average user gets their hands on a tri-band device. And since Sprint just canned a gaggle of phone support staff its even more imperative.
  11. I'll give that a try on my GS3 next time I venture over to AOSP land. Thanks for the tip.
  12. Depending on your device, you may have trouble updating your PRL to one that will allow you to connect to the 800 MHz bands if you're not running a stock based ROM. I don't think it's possible to update a PRL from CM 10.1 on a Sprint GS3. If I'm not mistaken, one must backup your current setup, flash a stock ROM, do your PRL & profile updates, and then restore your nandroid backup. I don't think you can get the right PRL if you sit on a CM based ROM all the time ... at least not with a GS3. Not sure about other devices.
