I have a feeling this maybe the case. I have noticed that when I unlock my phone from sleep it says LTE+ and quickly switches to LTE before unlocking. One would expect just the opposite would happen where the device would not use carrier aggregation during sleep, and then start using carrier...

Not impressed with the sub-6 Ghz speeds I am seeing on an Unlocked Ultra on AT&T. Interesting during the top test I saw the 5G indicator, but the test was recorded as a LTE test. My iPhone 11 Pro Max has much better and consistent results.

I have not had an Android device for quite a while and decided I would give a Galaxy S20 Ultra a try as I have become tired of iOS 13 bugs on my iPhone 11 Pro Max. I picked up an unlocked S20 Ultra from Best Buy earlier today. I contacted AT&T and had them change the IMEI for my line then I...

After updating to Android 5.1.1 on my T-Mobile Galaxy S6, I have noticed that the T-Mobile My Account app can no longer be disabled. Usually I leave this app disable since I do not usually use it. Since installing the update I have been noticing that even when I have mobile data set to off, it...

I just installed the update on my T-Mobile S6. The update took a few minutes to download at just over 600mb. After the update installed, I shut my device off and then cleared the cache partition. When I rebooted the phone after clearing the cache partition, I received a message asking if I...

Re: S6 Fingerprint Trouble Have you tried changing it to swipe and then back to fingerprints? Try holding down the volume down and power button until the device restarts. Are you using an alternative launcher?

Re: S6 Fingerprint Trouble Have you checked to verify you have the screen lock type set correctly? You can check this by going into the Settings app --> Lock screen and security --> Screen lock type. Make sure the screen lock type is set to "Fingerprints".

I have been a happy user of Nine. They are constantly adding new features and it works well with my Office 365 account. The app is constantly being updated to fix bugs and add new features. Recently it received a material design update and has an interface that is much like the Gmail app.

I have been seeing cell standby taking up about 30% of my battery. Yesterday I shut WiFi calling off and left WiFi on. I charged my phone early this morning. Since the charge completed my phone has been on battery for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Cell Standby has used 1% of my battery and the battery...

I have never had a phone on Sprint's network but I have found that the mobile network settings have greatly affected the signal strength on other carriers in the past. Sprint Spark I believe is Sprint's version of 4G LTE. You indicated that with your S3 you had no problems with 4G data. I would...

I just followed through with the RMA process for my device. It seems to shut itself off at random times, not when charging that I know of. Then when I try to turn it back on, holding the power button down does nothing. Then if I wait a few moments and hold the power button down once again it...

Happy holidays to all! Thanks to the great folks that make Android possible!

I ordered one directly from T-Mobile, as I am a customer. They are regular $9.99 but have a web only discount, making them $0.99. Check it out at: Sim Card Activation Kit For Prepaid Phone or Unlocked iPhone | T-Mobil

You really need to take into account the number of orders that Google has to ship and the tremendous number of packages UPS will deliver between now and New Years Day. All because UPS does not provide any tracking information does not necessarily mean that the device has not shipped. While it is...

I placed my order in the 1-2 week window. I received a notification that my device had shipped on Friday (11/30). Card was charged at the same time. UPS has been presenting me with the famous "A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status...
