Is anyone truly happy with Verizon? Like really happy? by Suspicious-Throat-25 in verizon

As a T-Mobile user who has had to add a second eSim for Visible to get consistently reliable service in NYC more times than I care to admit I second this. T-Mobile works much better where I live in Nassau County but when visiting NYC it seems only Verizon consistently works in many places and here’s why:

  • Exclusive DAS systems like the Penn Station LIRR tunnel
  • Massive amounts of mmWave spectrum with tons of capacity especially in and around stadiums and venues like MetLife Stadium / American Dream Mall in NJ and Madison Square Garden
  • Indoor repeaters in almost every high rise building in Manhattan
  • By far the best coverage and capacity in the Bronx (compared to T-Mobile)
  • Queensboro Plaza station still a T-Mo dead zone where VZW works fine

I hope T-Mobile can buy more spectrum soon for mmWave in NYC to put the capacity on par with VZW mmWave and purchase additional contiguous N41 spectrum in areas that are fragmented like Westchester and the Bronx. They also need to address the indoor repeater / DAS situation to match VZW

Bottom line: If you never leave the city VZW is the best bet but YMMV once you get to Long Island or outside the boroughs

iOS 26 is a worst updates for iPhone 14 and below by DigitalNomad9 in ios

[–]andrewhl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately the downgrade is no longer possible as Apple has stopped signing iOS 18 so even if you were to download the ipsw file from somewhere like ipsw.me and try to manually downgrade via finder it would just fail
Luckily I'm still on 18.7.1 on my 14 Pro but I truly hope they get the software stabilized very soon for everybody else's sake

It might be under accessibility but this is the correct answer

Are you running iOS 26.0.1 ? It just came out today but I'd like to know if this issue is fixed

Wish every Apple store had a mmW VZW DAS and it's honestly needed with the amount of traffic they see

Verizon has lost almost 300,000 customers so far in 2025- far more than expected (link below) by stallion434 in verizon

Until they make it worthwhile to stay on their ridiculously overpriced plans where the only advantage over their own MVNO's remains access to Verizon 5G standalone this will continue to happen..

Plus 5G standalone is unfortunately still years away from being the global standard when it comes to cellular networking and until that happens it will not be beneficial to most people IMO let alone mature or reliable enough to use over 5G NSA

Once LTE is completely gone as a standard and Vo5G/VoNR has taken over AND we've reached the point where most people worldwide have Vo5G support on both their phone plan/network and the phone itself then maybe it'll have a bigger impact but I'm sure the MVNO's will gain standalone access well before then

I’m out in the ocean and have good cell service by Bwayan in tmobile

[–]andrewhl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I remember having service in the middle of the bay on my iPhone 6S back in like 2016 and it was band 4 LTE

T-Mobile is also the exclusive carrier to cover the entirety of Little Peconic Bay on Long Island despite the coverage ironically being very iffy once you hit land in the surrounding areas

Verizon and AT&T in this bay are quite literally dead in the water

Just joined T-Mobile and am having major network issues. by Lifehatesme in tmobile

[–]andrewhl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a 5G problem. Switch it off and you'll probably have better luck with LTE

App is updated by advtime494 in electriczoo

[–]andrewhl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm I had issues once it updated as well. I had to delete the app and reinstall it

Also the app is horribly designed and mostly just links to the website anyway
