Guess they are finally valuing their service quality at zero dollars!! Having unfortunate experience of being a sprint customer, I wholeheartedly concur with the valuation of their service.

Hi! I have ten specific questions that only pertain to my individual circumstances. I epitomize laziness and my sense of entitlement is impervious to reason. Therefore it is the responsibility of anyone and everyone who reads this to find the answers to my questions.

Sure they have Wi-Fi calling. Justin not on every phone. I use it all the time at home.

I've had WiFi calling on S5 since 2015(only used it a few times). They even gave out free Asus WiFi router.

I have an iPhone on a free unlimited account opened in Dec. 2017, and a Nexus 6p on an account opened a week ago. What I just noticed is that when I have the two phones side by side and turn off their wifi, the iPhone gets LTE whereas the Nexus 6p gets 3G.

Does the current unlimited plan offers only non-LTE data? Or is it a known problem with Nexus 6p?

Also, the old plan has 10G hotspot per month. The new plan doesn't mention hotspot. Does that mean it doesn't support hotspot at all? Thanks!

You can try these steps in link.(cdma network-sprint)

You know google voice charges $20 to port in.
I've done it before. We're talking about a number that I want to be my main contact number for many years to come. $20 is worth it to know my number will be safe until Google goes under (I'll be gone long before then I'm sure).

Currently with ATT:

2 lines with iPhone 7 paid off
1 line with iPhone 7 - 6 more payments left
1 line with iPhone 6 paid off

Can I pay off the last iPhone 7 early so I can get out of ATT? I know I'll have to get rid of the ATT iPhones. Will try selling those and buying Verizon or compatible iPhones

This is the super easy way to fix that nexus 6:

1) Install "Change APN" app from Google store
2) Open ChangeAPN and click the "option" ( the 3 vertical dots) in the upper right hand corners.
3) click "reset to default"
4) exit the app
5) perform carrier reset (note: need to use the *#*#72786#*#* as noted by someone previously)
6) after the phone rebooted, perform PRL/Device config update.

That's it and you should have LTE data.

Note: You may not need to perform step 5 or 6. Just try a reboot after step 4.

Is there a $30 activation fee? The rep on the phone told me there is and won't waive it...
