I like it, but this should be baked into NSO

Fuck that, boycott now!

The only reason it would be remotely acceptable is to drive the cost per unit down because the rest of the hardware is expensive, but even then it isnt like this is cutting edge stuff. I’d just hate if it had some gimmick that no one will use like the IR sensor, and the go with an LCD.

I’ve considered doing this but I’m hesitant to do this for the first time on my primary device. I figure when I upgrade I may keep this phone to experiment on.

Thank you. I fairly compulsively keep apps closed to free up memory and also don’t keep many extra apps installed.

Thanks for the advice. I keep installed apps to a minimum for data privacy purposes. I’ll see if there is any other fat to trim though

So maybe I’m just out of touch, but who reads this and still wants to use this service?

Mine took three weeks or more, but I had to demo a 1970’s walk-in shower before I got to putting in the new one. I had two bagsters of mortar and tile, and had to re-sheetrock the walls and ect.

Your mileage my vary based on how much is needed for the swap. Just expect that it will take longer than you think.

I just removed an old walkin shower with a tub/shower combo. In answer to your question, yes its possible. That being said you should plan on it taking a while to complete if you need to change any walls or plumbing and thats if you don’t run into any strange issues. An extra person is very helpful to help get things into place. If you have a lot of room that might not matter.

There are no open connections around me unless they have an agreement with a cell carier

100% streaming on the web

TV left offline. Small computer(I use linux) attached. Wireless keyboard with a trackpad.

I’ve been doing this for years.

How did you beat it that fast? I’m 70ish hours in and only starting to get close to done with act 1 maybe.

Thank you for your response on this. I’ll dig in a bit to see if this will work or not.

From what I can find Verizon supports n77 , n260, n26, n2, n5, n66.

The listed Specs for the Zenphone 10 shows the following.

US version DC-HSPA+ (DL/UL): 42Mbps / 5.76Mbps ; LTE 7CA (DL/UL) 2.0Gbps / 211Mbps 5G NR FR1 (DL/UL): 4.92Gbps / 0.55Gbps

5G Non-Standalone (NSA): n1, n2, n3, n5, n7, n8, n12, n20, n25, n38, n40, n41, n66, n71, n77, n78

5G Standalone (SA): n1, n2, n3, n5, n7, n8, n12, n20, n25, n38, n40, n41, n66, n71, n77, n78

FDD-LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 30, 66, 71)

TD-LTE (Bands 34, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42)

WCDMA (Bands 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 19)

EDGE/GPRS/GSM (2, 3, 5, 8)

Does that seem like enough overlap?

Thank you for your response. Did you have any issues with 5g on any of these phones?

If thats the case then this just made my day! I’m not really sure how to verify that it works without buying one, but I guess I can do some reading.

Verizon. It sounds like they specifically don’t have the 13 band.

So I’m not personally locked into CDMA vs gsm, its just that the carrier appears to be. The exact quote from the device page is

“[US Version] Compatible with GSM Networks including AT&T, T-Mobile and MVNOs (Mobile Virtual Network Operators) who utilize AT&T and T Mobile networks. This device is not compatible with CDMA Networks such as: Verizon, Sprint and US Cellular”

Looking at it more, it sounds like the problem is specifically the 13 band not being supported by the device.

Its not that I want it. Its what my carrier uses. I would consider changing, but I’d have to get my family to cone with me.
