Thought that might be the case. The towers in the area I travel have manly been LTE already, and 540. Is this the 3G upgrades?

Over the last few weeks my note 3 has started to hang when moving between towers. It's not switching from 3G to 4G as easily, and I'm often having t toggle airplane mode. Sometimes it seems to even drop signal completely when traveling in areas without prior trouble. This is in and out of Durham and North Raleigh. Anyone having similar issues? Seems to be it started in the last month.

Curious as to your experiences on this - I used the aux port hooked up to my Note 3 and the stereo on our van recently on our road trip. The sound was terrible. A lot of noise, couldn't get clear sound, was really annoying. I know my HTC Evo LTE had "beats" built in, but that thing sounded good in the car and this Note is awful. Same aux cord being used, same vehicle. Why the poor quality sound?

Also getting this pop up regularly. It never tells you what the problem app is either, just takes you to the application manager screen.

Has anyone been getting some force closes and app's hanging when making and hanging up a call? It happened several times this morning. First time the app was hanging in a froze state and it wouldn't let me hangup the call. Eventually I got an error msg saying some "android process stopped working". The next time I made a call I got a white screen (the call went through fine), and then when I went to hang up it said "activity phone (or soemthing like it) stopped working, do you want to close the program". Any thoughts? I'll try to get a screen shot next time it happens.

Nice. This is also probably why the deal didn't last more than 14 hours. People screwing others by stealing.

my problem is that i swear my subdivision is the ups guy last stop. He always comes around 830 at night. Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk 2

Crap, I was hoping it would make it until tonight. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

friend sent me this today - hoping that it doesn't expire before I get mine tonight.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EPLTC1I/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I returned my N5, but have this case still. If anyone wants it, I'll sell it for $6 including shipping. I have no use for it now.

Took 2 calls but got them to credit back the restocking fee. Both customer service reps were clueless about the triband/network issues, although the guy in the Corp store knew the deal. I may jump on the Note 3 from Amazon for 250, or wait and see if Sprint fixes the network here. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

Said goodbye to my N5 today. Not going to wait on Sprint with a 3G only phone. If they get Raleigh going soon, I may go right back to it. Gonna have to argue with customer service though, they charged a $35 restocking fee. Either they are going to credit that back, or credit my activation fee back. Not like I returned it "just because". They are the ones who knowingly released a phone that couldn't function as advertised in so many markets. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

Yep, for a phone that wasn't supposed to have bloatware, I would classify that as such. Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

I loved the aluminum finishes on the HTC Evo LTE and One. Something I wish they would do on a Nexus device. Sent from my Nexus 5

Yeah, I was sort of planning to return mine and revert back to my EVO LTE until they get it sorted out. Who knows, maybe I'll even get it for a few bucks cheaper then.

Ooh, this would be fantastic. Sent from my Nexus 5

After disabling Google location services and disabling the google now maps card, my battery is way better today. I've been off charger for about 4 hours and am at 90%. Yesterday I was already at 75%.

Yeah, I noticed my battery ran down fairly quick today. Not sure if it was Lightflow or not. May have been the Google Now cards, specifically the Maps one. Got that turned off and will see if it fares better tomorrow. Sent from my Nexus 5

Yeah, certainly this is a great phone. But it would also be nice to have the pure Google Android on a premium device! Sent from my Nexus 5

Anyone have an idea about the 3G upgrades being completed/accepted in the Raleigh market? (see the LTE/ecfsb issues thread) Sent from my Nexus 5

I would like to see them sell 2 models. Make a budget priced one like the one we have now and sell it for cheap. Then make one with a better screen, 32 gb, better sound, and a bigger battery capacity for a higher price. Sent from my Nexus 5

speaking of keyboards, I haven't used a stock keyboard in several years. Swiftkey has been well worth the money.

I second that... downloaded Textra bc I didn't like the way hangouts was laid out - I don't want all the extras and seeing my entire G+ contact list in there was annoying.

Anyone know why Google Play Services would be responsible for this much of my battery drain? I'm at work and not using my phone much, pretty much just sitting here next to me. Sent from my Nexus 5

Yep, but should we really expect someone to pop in and read through 70+ pages to find out? A sticky at the thread opener of known issues or common questions would be helpful to cut down on duplicate questions and answers. Sent from my Nexus 5
