The same as before. Sprint. Improving drastically, all over my travels...

Wish I could say the same about Sprint... Lollipop works great.... But the Sprint service is a different matter...

The still constant issue with the phone not even acknowledging an incoming call.... The caller will hear it ringing about 7 or 8 times and then go to voice mail... On my end, there is no indication of a missed call at all... Not even in history... If I didn't get a voicemail notification, I wouldn't even know they called.... Kind of surprising living in a metro area in which Sprint says that's it a very solid coverage area....

The reason why I ask is because I can only get one bar on LTE at the most (while my friend gets 4-5 bars ,while we are in the same location) , I just noticed this recently so I wasn't sure if it's because of the update . My friend has the note 3 and I have the m8, so I went to the Sprint store and discovered it a because I have Sprint spark and his phone doesn't . Sprint spark is supposed to be better than general LTE but it seems just the opposite . I wish there was a way to remove Sprint spark

My service is far worse than pre-lollipop. Also, my phone lags a lot more after updating. Sucks

Agreed. I have to rely almost exclusively to wifi. While the phone is awesome the connection sucks when using Sprint service. I constantly have to reboot the device to try & connect to the closest tower.

I have found, actually that the stock signal bars were showing an incorrect signal strength.

If you are getting the Sprint Spark icon, that means that your phone is connected to at least two LTE bands. So you should be getting great or at least very good data speeds.

Personally, I highly recommend the Signal Check Pro app as a tool for seeing your real signal strength...
