    Dial *#*#4636#*#*..then 'phone info'..scroll down to your connection type ( right above "turn off radio ). there is a little arrow pull down deal there. Select your type and exit. There is no 'save' feature..just exit.

    Well Fernandez..I locked the sucker into LTE and so far no problems and better battery life. It seemed like it had a hard time choosing between 4 bars of 4g or 3 bars of LTE. Im sure the signal is the phones fault. I have not changed my location habits and there is a difference between this and...

    I need some honest opinions.

    It got rather hot for me while using GPS. And as Jeff said ^ It likes to bounce connections/towers. I eventually locked it into LTE and my battery life is better. I use the device just as your describing..and no other real heat issues. I might even remove my rubber case to see if it disperses...

    3 weeks with my M9. Thoughts and impressions

    Nice writeup. So all the bells and whistles are working/not working to some degree..but how does the phone work? Dropped/missed calls/texts? How is voice quality? ( my xperia z3 sometimes had me sound like I was under water ). I can somewhat understand the camera quality in our phones now..but...

    Working indoors is not typically the problem Nada. Its having it work inside our metal storage buildings ( or even close by ) that becomes the problem. If I see someone on a phone inside I can guarantee that they have verizon. If Im correct the M8 will not work on the newer tmobile bands that...

    Thanks for the reply Bodzm. From what I understand ( I could be wrong ) Is that the M8 does not support all of T mobs' Bands. M9 and S6 does ( same with my ex-peria ). Coverage and service is my top priority. If the M8 could get reception as well as the M9 will..then I could see how the...

    What case are you getting?

    I just put on the Tech21 Evo Check. Feels good...but the side edges pull away too easy. I might be going without a case as well.

    New to the forum but not to phones. Im not a power user nor do most of the 'smart' features of a Phone go on my top 3 list. I want a phone that works. No missed calls or text.. paramount. I had the G1 a week after launch ( loved it ). Running with T-mo with the 4g slide next..then z1 experia...
