So, once we have 20+20 (or 20+20+20) CA, does that give us Super Turbo Spark max.

That's really a mouth full. Super Turbo Spark Max lol. I could only imagine the marketing commercials for that. "join Sprint and experience the new Super Turbo Spark Max, guaranteed to be faster than anything you've experienced before" [emoji23]

Does it piss anyone else off that Apple doesn't have some kind of popup blocker/redirect blocker for these stupid websites that are allowed to open the App Store? I'm tired of reading websites, and then suddenly being prompted to download "clash of clans," "candy crush," or "draft kings."

They were supposed to put the app pop up blocker in iOS 8, and it was there on the Betas but once the official version came out it seemed like they took the feature out for reasons unknown.

It's hard to keep it up there. I sometimes have to do it 3-4 times in a row to keep the signal number up there, and sometimes it stays up there with no issue. Press and hold the power button until the slide to turn off slider shows up, then press the home button until Field Test crashes. Of course, it helps to have lots of apps open when doing it.

Edit: it worked. I missed it. I had it on my iPhone 5 during the iOS 6 days lol.

Every Band 41 site should eventually have the appropriate backhaul. It's just clear sites that initially didn't (don't) have the appropriate backhaul. Many of them will be decommissioned next year. Sprint sites will have fully provisioned backhaul, otherwise B41 is rather pointless. Rather wish Sprint hadn't made the "Turbo" distinction.

I think it's just for competition purposes. Sprint has Spark and Spark Turbo and Verizon has LTE and XLTE. Just names to draw the customer in and make them think they're super fast. Lol

And question about this whole Spark Turbo stuff. Is it only gonna be available on back haul upgraded sites and is S.T. going to be on every Clear & Sprint tower available or just limited selection where it's needed.

How'd you get the -dBm to stay up there? I try it all the time never works.

The Mobile site does have notifications. It's not push, but they are there if you click the button at the top right of the page. You can also choose a different skin if you want. Not the worst thing in the world, better than a broken Tapatalk ha.

I like the push. I don't wanna have to check the site of 10 minutes just to see what the haps is lol.

Your most recent iCloud cloud back up should have the previous version. If you restore just by plugging into the computer it'll install the previous version of the app.

Crashes on me every time I do this on any forum now. Left a 1 star review on this update. Completely unusable now.

Yeah the app is very unstable. Clicking the smallest thing causes a crash. I sent a crash report email.

This is why I use the mobile site. Works great for me

I stopped using the mobile app once I downloaded Tapatalk. I couldn't use the mobile site because it doesn't have notifications so I was always have to re-read everything to catch up to the post. It's also ugly lol.

The Android version is also craptacular.

Lol Tapatalk playing with our feelings right now. Such crappy updates.

Normality restored and automatic updates off for eternity.

Lol I would turn off automatic updates but I have OCD and I can't stand when those numbered badges are there. #PetPeeve

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

Im going to restore my phone and prevent the update from installing. I'm not using this. I already dislike tapatalk with its continuous issues. This puts me over the top. Now I have to disable automatic updates so I don't have to deal with this damn app. If there was an alternative forum app, I would use it even if it was worse at this point, simply because I hate Crapatalk. Argh!

You don't need to do all of that. If the non updated version is on your iTunes just delete the new one and put the old one I've done that several times with certain apps

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

Then you should fix that!

Alright you're really dragging it. If you're not gonna help then don't reply to me thanks. You have a good day.

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

Gee.... what's that I see??

 

I'm not on the website guy. Tapatalk search sucks. You did all of that work you could've just linked it.

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

Damn, I turned auto update off and it still went through. This thing is weird lol

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

Search isn't always helpful but okay thanks I guess.

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

Is there a Spark Turbo forum?? If there is can someone link it for me please and thank you

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

He means your profile on S4GRU, it still says you have an iPhone 5.

Ohhh lol okay gotcha.

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

More than likely antiquated Clear microwave backhaul. It's not uncommon. However, I've found fiber backhaul to be way more common in the city than not. Also, you could be part of the reason why it's slow and not know it. The iPhone 6/6+ launch has reduced speeds on Band 41 in some areas though not to the point where it is unusable.

 

Edit: You should probably update your Phones/Devices to say that you own an iPhone 6.

Edit: wait what exactly do you mean "update my phones so Sprint knows I have a 6." Wouldn't Sprint know anyways, I didn't buy the phone from the Sprint store & when I go online the phone that's attached to my number is an iPhone 6 so I'm confused"

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

I have a question. I've gotten B41 a couple times since I got my iPhone 6, my speeds are always slow. 4-5mb on B41. I think that's a little weird, is it because backhaul isn't installed or is it my phone.

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

When the phone first came out, it always grabbed LTE less than a minute after losing LTE. Then they released some kind of new carrier update that ruined that. Now it's back to that standard 5 minute scan.

Not me, my phone grabs LTE and it will transfer between all 3 bands before it drops and then when it drops it still gets it back pretty quickly.

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

The iPhone 6 has gotten much much better when it comes comes to switching bands. My phone switched from B41 to B25 then to B26.

Sent from my shiny new Space Grey iPhone 6 using Tapatalk

Little bit of B41 goodness. Only one bar and my phone was hanging on tight to the signal.
