It's been dropping all over in the springbranch area. I live in the Heights and it's still stable. Other side of 610 is no good right now I've noticed though.

Nexus S off topic

Hey there guys I think we should have our own off topic thread since other devices have them too and this can be a place where we can talk freely and not take this forum too seriously
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
Ohh, yeah. Not just on Nexus S, we do need to hang out with our buddies here.
Long live OT.

So any reasons why you guys are still with the Nexus S? Mine is because I don't have the cash to upgrade xP

I actually just got mine in August. I'd been wanting one, and for only seven dollars, I got a fresh one. Sold my Inspire to a work associate. Honestly, I like my Nexus more.

Hi guys, guess what? The only online store here in the Philippines that sell the Nexus 4 is selling it for a whopping US$580 after conversion. What a ripoff. Any of you guys not in the US and experiencing the same price discrimination?

So I have this idea...

I was hoping to get some opinions on this idea since T-Mobile's coverage is pretty bad in my neighborhood. I'm thinking of porting my number to Google voice then pointing it to a Skype number and running it all through clear 4g for $50/mo unlimited with unlimited calling on Skype for $3/mo. Thoughts?

Depends on if you want to have a phone when you really need it. VoIP is useless without a high speed connection.

If you don't have a good cell coverage, nothing will magically give you a reliable service, unless you have WiFi everywhere you go.

Save yourself from the trouble and switch to AT&T. I really think it's a ridiculous idea.

DC-HSDPA on three in the UK

In the UK The three network has an "ultrafast" DC-HSDPA network. Anyone who has a Nexus 4 tried this as I will be getting a Nexus 4 tomorrow and giving my I9300 to my Girlfriend. Just wanted to know how big an improvement the data speeds are.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I don't use Three personally but I've seen a friend get speeds of around 20Mbps
Yea the phone can use threes dc-hspa
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I'm meant to be in an ultrafast area, but throughout the day speeds vary (in the exact same spot) from 0.5Mbps to 15Mbps, so yeah, it's great when it gives good speeds.
I get 1-3Mb/s on three in Southampton .......
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I usually get between 7-15mbps in hull
Though only half the city has decent reception. Thankfully it's the half that I live in
Other half I only get between 0-1mbps
You can tell your on DC because you will get h+ instead of just h
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Wow sounds rather varied but thanks I live in London and the speeds aren't too bad most of the time.

Just to note, H+ is actually HSPA+, which isn't DC-HSDPA, your phone unfortunately won't tell you when you're using DC-HSDPA.

Canadian going on a cruise to Alaska

I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum to ask but anyways: I'm going on a cruise to Alaska soon and I'm currently using winds unlimited $40 plan. I was wondering if, since the n4 works with every carrier, is there a better way to go / different carrier so I don't have to pay ridiculous /MB and /min fees? I don't travel much so any help is appreciated.

You're going on a cruise to have a good time. Lay down the phone enjoy it there.

You're not going to have service on the water, only around cities. Does the ship have Wi-Fi?

UK Three 4G - available now?

As the title suggests, has anyone on Three got 4G yet? It says it's activated now, however I'm on the latest Bobcatrom with network selection automatically selecting LTE (autoconnect), I'm still on H?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using xda app-developers app
They have only activated for so many people at the moment, I'm not sure how you check though mate
Sent from my C6603 using xda app-developers app
Ah ok, many thanks for the reply (and I've just realised I posted this completely in the wrong place, my bad, mod please do move accordingly!). I've restarted my phone, since coming back to London from up north and yeah it's still not activated. May give a all over next few days if still not switched...
I heard they have started the rollout in London for selected customers (around 1000) for now with more customers expected to be given access in January.
When asked their tweeter account replied saying all test users have already been picked but to look out for further updates from them. Bit dissapointing if you ask me.
That's really helpful to know where I stand, but I couldn't agree more, a dam shame they couldn't roll out full availability in one go.

To be fair, I'm still doing alright with the speeds I've got right now and so I am really curious to see what 4G so bring!

That sucks. They had a blog post that said "We'll be rolling out 4G for ALL our customers in 3 cities in December" which they've now pulled.

Got mine now! Best speed so far is 3.6mb a second, not too bad! Anyone else got theirs yet?

is that on 4g? I thought a lot of people were getting a hell of a lot more than that on the 3g.... Some were saying around 30mb. That's very disappointing if that's the 4g speed mate
