Caution. My OP6T, with a telekom.de SIM card, worked fine in Germany and while roaming in the rest of the EU up until the 9.0.15 OTA. Now, although I get fair 4G while in Germany, when I travel to, say Italy or France (France, telekom.de roams on Orange F), my service drops to either Edge or H...

Signal.

One More Thing -- while roaming -- while the other phone gets either 4G or LTE, my now-9.0.15 OP6T gets either H, or Edge; even when H (4-5 bars) b/w still sucks.

I would never have even noticed or cared if my OP6T got the same data / voice it got a month ago while roaming in the EU. Like I said my data was close to zero, while my wife's android 9, roaming under the same exact circumstances at the same time (all day long while in France) got great mobile...

A few weeks ago it OTAd 9.0.15 and I just now noticed that it never achieves LTE, only 4G. I didn't notice it until today while I was roaming on Orange F and I had mostly unusable data; while another phone with the same SIM (telekom.de) roamed on Orange F and got great data, and also showed LTE...

BOTTOM LINE HERE: DO NOT USE US MOBILE AS A VERIZON MVNO. Period.

Please conduct the same test with mobile data disabled but WiFi left on, and post your findings? Help to rule out a carriers' meddling. Thanks.

Yes, do *not* mess w/ the build quality! I'm on the fence about changing from USB-C back though, I'm hoping for better functionality in the 'C because it saves hw build real estate. Thanks.

Sometimes a radio goes bad in a phone, my GS4 (had it 4 years) wifi radio is going out slowly (poor reception on wifi but cellular is still fine). But you said your PH1 connects just fine to other hotspots, so this is baffling. Please cross-test different phones / wifi to extent possible and...

The camera needs more options like changing image size, and control over rapid-fire.

OH F*** this thing just took about 20 pics again with one press on the camera button HOW DO YOU DISABLE RAPIDFIRE? [Insert angry frustrated face here] Thanks ---

1. How do you disable multiple-pics? I *HATE* it -- In cold weather or awkward stance I get my finger on the button for a second and next thing I know I've got 20 pics of something I only wanted one. "DISABLE MULTISHOT" definitely needed. 2. What if you want the pic(s) you are about to take to...

I so much want to load this but we're getting ready to move to Germany and while I expect Nougat to be stable enough for this, I'm just reluctant because I'll be ill equipped to deal with it when we arrive in Frankfurt and I pop in a Lebara or Telekom sim and things don't work right. That's one...

After restarting mine in SafeMode, then restarting normal, I lost my screen configurations because the app which controls all the 'desktops' crashed and I had to clear both cache & memory which wiped everything out and had to set 3 screens up again, and no one at Essential gave me an answer...
