Do the phones ordered from Huawei ship any faster? It says "Late November".

My 6P which I ordered 10/21 and said would ship 11/20something shipped today, it'll be here Tuesday. From Illinois. Apparently they've shipped it via slow-pony express.

Just started my port from Sprint to Google Fi. I was a SERO customer for 10 years, and my service with Fi over the past few weeks has been great. Happy to be rid of Sprint.

Actually, I'm using T-Mo 80% of the time and it's better. Also, my two interactions with customer service were far-and-away better. As a data point for those interested, the port was done in 15 minutes.

I can't send text messages through hangouts. Or, I haven't figured it out yet. It's just type the phone number in the box, right? I get an option to call them, but not send a text. Also, I can't receive texts sent to my device via the web, unless I just haven't figured it out yet.

So I've been full-time Google Fi for two days. I don't send a lot of text messages, but sending them from the computer is crucial. 99% of my life is done through my @mybusiness.com e-mail address which runs google apps - my e-mail, calendar, Play music, etc. The only significant thing that's done through my old @gmail.com legacy account is Project Fi which is not usable without an @gmail.com address. I have sent and received a few text messages from my phone (using Hangouts). Logging into the computer (under either account) doesn't reveal a way to see existing, reply, or send new text messages. Can somebody walk me through what I'm missing?

The #1 you've got is not exactly how it appears in my settings, but I do think the setting you're describing is on - I am sending and receiving all the text messages via Hangouts on my phone. What you describe in gmail (which is what I'm looking for) isn't there. I can click to call people through that screen, but no text messages.

What's the scuttlebutt on the release of a new 5x or 6p in the next few months? My wife wants a new phone, but I feel like the current gen is coming EOL soon, and I hate buying something new only to have it superseded a month later.

Yeah, I'm using the 6P right now and it's literally the best phone I've ever had. Which is what I plan to tell my wife. When I give her my used Nexus 6P and buy whatever the new hotness is.

me your dad posted:I bought the paid app and when I first (accidentally) tried to switch carriers, it gave me a notification. I think I hit 'No Thanks' or something to that affect and now it just brings me to my contact list when I press one of the carrier icons in the app. Any ideas?

Force Jump to Sprint: *#*#34777#*#* Force Jump to T-Mobile: *#*#34866#*#* Force Jump to Next Carrier: *#*#346398#*#* Turn On Auto Switch: *#*#342886#*#* Repair Bad Activation: *#*#34963#*#* Current Network Info: *#*#344636#*#* Copy and paste the dialer codes from here into your dialer app. Just think. You'd have had to pay $2 for the app. PayPal-ing me $1 for my beer fund will save you 50%.

My habits haven't really changed. I don't chat or text any more or less, I don't listen to music any more or less. But the 12 month numbers from before don't match up with the 2 months I've been on Fi.

There was some engineer from Google that was going through Amazon USB-C cables and buying them all and then leaving reviews as to whether they met spec or not. His reivews got voted to the top, so you can see which ones are legit now.

My wife's new Nexus 5X has used 2GB of data in two weeks. She was < 1GB/mo (pretty far below, in fact) for the entirety of her time with Sprint. Data usage shows 1.1GB used over the cellular network on just "Google Play Store" alone. Settings in play store are "update over WiFi only". In Data Usage, I can turn off play store's ability to use background data. I did so. 1) Will this make anything bad happen, and 2) 1.1GB, what the ever-loving gently caress?

My wife used >3GB last month, and over 2 years with Sprint had never broken 1GB, in fact was frequently averaging 0.5GB. My 2-3GB turning into 4-5GB could possibly be blamed on my being an internet addict with better mobile coverage. My wife using 6x the data that she's ever used in her life... There is something being done differently in the calculations of data at Fi versus Sprint.

I measure using the Sprint dashboard vs. the Fi dashboard, because that's how they bill me.

There's a shopping mall on the border with Mexico on the US side, I get that message at the shopping mall, but they don't end up charging me, so they must figure it out somehow.

1) yes, San Ysidro 2) I have never been able to definitively figure out what's wrong with WiFi calls, but it's like using a really clear version of a bad walkie talkie. Weird delays. Weird dropouts, I'm never quite sure if the other person can hear me. But when they can, I sound really, really good.

"Make as many items as you can sell" is a pretty common business strategy. "It's better to go a few short than a lot over" is another pretty common business strategy.

Sprint is terrible at my house, T-Moble is perfect. It chooses Sprint (or worse, WiFi) 30%+ of the time. The learning process must be slow.

Uncle Ivan posted:Anyway, I wish Google would release just a project Fi SMS interface that you can use from any website while still being able to use whatever SMS app you want. Why is google crippling Fi and letting anyone on any other carrier have SMS integration with Voice?
