Phones / Re: Please Help: Iphone 6s Plus Is Network Locked by HarveyDeven: 1:51pm On Oct 19, 2017
Sprint is a CDMA network. You might have difficulties unlocking this device and using it on other services.

CDMA networks are the most common in North America and parts of Asia (CDMA networks examples : Verizon, Sprint, US Cellular, Straight Talk, Metro PCS, Unefon).

Unlike GSM phones that work with a SIM card inside, the CDMA phones do not work based on a SIM. It is easy to swap phones on GSM networks because you only need to take out your SIM card and put it in a different phone (the new phone will have your number).
Phones / Re: Does Charging A Phone With A Laptop Spoil The Phone's Battery by HarveyDeven: 1:49pm On Oct 19, 2017
ibbryte:
Effect on battery life is insignificant and inconsequential.
Recent studies have shown that slower charging last longer and save battery life.
quickcharge and other fast charges gotten from normal 2A charger are detrimental to battery health in long run, it think its in the terms and conditions for those that read It.

The real concern of charging with laptop is phone memory, the cumulative effect of usb mass storage recognition and removal (without unmounting) cause memory distortion you start getting "unfortunately memory has stopped" query and other problems.
So charge with moderation and try to unmount before unplugging the phone.


Thank you! Great explanation.

How about charging with different charges? I noticed that one charger my gf's Samsung charges faster than with another one.

Will these 2 different charging times, but from 2 actual charges, have an impact of her device?

Talking too loud when there's an earphone on your ear

Yep, this is so me! smiley

Same here! I am better off using only one earphone, cause 2 is too much.

Have you considered any of the new Nokia devices hitting the markets in this period?

Technology Market / Re: Satellite Solution Where There Is No GSM. by HarveyDeven: 1:31pm On Oct 19, 2017
Are these sattelite phones really cost effective? Some stats will be nice.

I know that it was a lot of fuss about sattelite phones several years ago, but they never quire catch on the market. Moreover I know that Motorola made some serious investments in the technology, only to sell it to Lenovo.

I guesss there are some upfront costs as well to such a service.

For how long have you been using it? I am curious because I used to enjoy Nokia phones back in the day. And if everything is alright with them, I might start using them again in the future. grin

Btw, from a design perspective, they look great!

The only difference is that you can damage your phone easily, if you don't have any proper technical knowledge.

Phones / How To Fix "Not Registered On Network" Error by HarveyDeven: 6:41am On Oct 16, 2017
A lot of times, phones can give the "Not registered on network" error, but this is not a reason to panic, since there are a few easy ways through which you can fix this.

Basically, this happens after unlocking your phone and trying to use a new network. The Service Provider you are trying to use is not yet notified of your IMEI number, and in consequence, you get the error on the pop-up screen Not Registered on Network.

You can find all the solutions here: https://www.unlockunit.com/help/knowledgebase/how-to-fix-not-registered-on-network/

I would also go for the X. That front-facing camera setup, as well as the design, are very impressive.
