That's the name of my iPhone so when I first read this I thought the forums has some user agent reading poo poo that would display whatever your iPhones name in the post. Whoops.

MarcusSA posted:I'm trying to figure something out and I'm not quite sure if I have it right. I have my old off contract Verizon 5s that I'd like to give my girlfriend who is on Sprint. Everything I have read tells me that my Verizon 5s will work on the Sprint network but do I need to unlock it or can I just take the phone to a Sprint store and they can activate it? Sprint won't activate a Verizon phone or any phone not branded with Sprint. Sorry.

noirstronaut posted:Does anyone know if it's a limitation of CDMA or if Sprint simply will not do it out of policy? As in, hypothetically, if someone had a connect that was semi-high up, could they get a Verizon iPhone working on Sprint? As far as I know there's no technical reason they can't activate it. It's just policy. Their systems won't recognize the MEID of the device if it's not in their white list. It errors out if you put in a Verizon phone MEID.

Anyone having issues with Google Maps not sending out notifications anymore since the latest update? It no longer shows banners or any pop ups on the lock screen when turned off while navigating. I uninstalled and reinstalled it and it doesn't even ask for the permission to show notifications so I know something is up.

Dr. Gitmo Moneyson posted:Are the Invisible Shield Glass protectors any good? I've been seeing these a lot at Best Buy and I'm leaning heavily towards buying one, but I want to know how good they are or if they're worth the money. The good thing about buying the Zagg Invisible Shield protectors is that if you ever break it you can take it to a Zagg kiosk at any mall and they'll replace it.

Just got a new head unit with CarPlay capability and it's pretty great. Siri is really good at figuring out what I'm saying quickly, the maps integration is awesome, and sending and receiving texts is a breeze. I can't wait for other apps to come out for it.

Endless Mike posted:Tell me more about CarPlay. I'm considering getting a head unit with it. The one you got looks nice, but I'll probably just go for the bottom-end App Radio since it seems to have everything I really need. I like it a lot but it's still a work in progress. If it had google maps integration it'd be the best. It just takes some getting used to cause I'm so used to being on my phone while driving so I'll click the messages app and it shows you the names but not what the messages say. It has to go through Siri which can be annoying sometimes. I just want more apps and more functionality in the maps app. I like the spotify integration.

The volume thing happens to me all the time. I fix it by opening up a maps app and then going back to the home screen, usually works with Google Maps. If it doesn't, try Apple maps, and then finally try Snapchat. For some reason those apps will take over the volume and lower it, like whenever they are giving a navigation direction, even if you have it turned off. It's dumb.

I have Pioneer AVIC-8100 NEX that I also got from amazon for $400. It works pretty well and I imagine it's the same experience on the other radios like the cheap Alpine carplay only one. Mine also has a capacitive screen and it responds very well. Highly recommend if you can get a good deal on it.

Killer Queen posted:I'm definitely going to buy a iPhone 5SE or whatever it's going to be called because the 5/5S is the best design Apple has ever made, even if it has an A8 CPU (and current rumors imply an A9 anyways). My iPhone 6, while a fine phone and all, feels like a clunky compromise. It's never been the same and I'd love to go back to a superior 4" form factor. It's supposedly using the 6 form factor that you hate.

The cost of an iPhone 5c should be $269, a new 5S is $450? 3rd party parts would make it ineligible.

Both iTunes and the phone are up to date (iTunes 12.2.2.25 on a MacBook Pro; iOS 9.2.1). However plugging in the phone always produces this message: I've seen that before. I had to manually download the latest version from apple.com and install it and it finally worked. Checking for updates in iTunes always said it was up to date even though it wasn't.

Nostalgia4Infinity posted:I like Apple Maps but Google Maps has some features I wish Apple would crib. Like on the fly rerouting to avoid traffic. That poo poo was clutch when driving back from Alabama and routed me around a giant accident. Apple maps has this now but it's still way better with google maps. I do think Apple maps will get better once they leverage all these new cars with CarPlay out and have up to date traffic info.

You don't need the app. You just need to make sure find my iPhone is enabled under iCloud settings and then you can access it on iCloud.com. When first setting the phone up it asks if you want to use Find my iPhone. You may have selected no on her original phone when setting it up, that's why it didn't give you that option.

the yeti posted:Iphone 6, ios 9.3.2, latest AT&T carrier settings is losing signal intermittently for hours at a stretch, sometimes overnight. Eventually I'll reboot the phone and signal + LTE comes back as if nothing ever happened. Been traveling the last few weeks so I've seen this occur in 3 different states so far. Do you mean it's stuck on searching or no service? If that's the case, it's probably the phone that needs to be replaced but SIM cards are free so you should try that first.

Krazyface posted:Okay, so a week ago I got the battery of my iphone 5 replaced, because it was behaving erratically, displaying the wrong amount and dying at like 40%. Over the following week it developed an issue where the battery percentage would not update at all, for anything. At the store's advice I did a reset. This caused a new issue in which the phone would restart every 2 minutes or so--EVERY 2 minutes. I took it into the apple store today and they eventually decided to replace it, for free (or for the cost of that new battery, I guess). It should give you an option to text your phone number the code instead, which should be on your new phone now. Otherwise, you'll have to call apple to remove that two factor authentication.

There are 3 mics and they can test each one individually in different ways. Could depend on phone model, though.
