Mike - I am about to pull the trigger on the best buy method too. Gonna probably get a iPhone 6s to flip on swappa. Then use money for V10/6P/5X.

I'm just waiting for them to ship now. Looks like vzw knows that I ordered the phones. Both our lines have contract end dates now and they didn't before.

All - what do you guys recommend for the following.
The cell sevice (4g/lte; vzw) in my building/workplace is basically non-existent. I can get 3g just fine. What can I do to eliminate the phone from trying constantly search for 4g status? Any applications I can use, etc?

Nope, no wifi.
They have this app/exposed module called Smart Network, which supposedly helps....but got lost in setting it up. Hahah

Sounds a lot like Smart Network. This where I got lost because I forgot what WCDMA, GSM, EvDO, etc all are.

---------- Post added at 09:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 AM ---------- actually, wouldn't CDMA only be the one you want? CDMA is vzw and there are others for CDMA/LTE.

Ultimately, the goal would be to use tasker to setup profile using GPS location (work) to set network as CDMA only. Everywhere else would allow for CDMA/LTE.
there are these choices too.

How familiar are you guys with Amplify and Greenify?
Gonna try to mess with my wakelocks and alarms to gain some better battery life. Using a couple threads from xda as resources.

anyone know where I can find a micro-usb to usb-type c adapter? amazon is preferred.
i have a few retractable usb cords (usb 2.0 to micro usb) and want to use the cords if i get nexus 6p.
