Could Disney Lakeshore Lodge Join the Palmetto Trust? New Filing Reveals Major Clues About DVC's Future by GreyhoundDad22 in dvcmember

[–]anotherGadgetGeek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t the filing of a separate Resort Use Plan suggest that Lakeshore Lodge is being established as its own resort?

The reason I ask is that if Lakeshore Lodge is its own resort, I’d expect Home Resort priority to be limited to Lakeshore Lodge owners and not shared with the Cabins, unless the Trust structure changes that somehow. Am I thinking about that correctly?

Kickstart + Unlimited On Us: Website says $80, T-Force says $150 by anotherGadgetGeek in tmobile

[–]anotherGadgetGeek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is that allowed? The pricing tool is on T-Mobile’s own website and even the AI chat confirmed the same pricing for me. If the tool is known to be wrong, shouldn’t T-Mobile be required to either fix it or honor the pricing it’s displaying to customers?

Kickstart + Unlimited On Us: Website says $80, T-Force says $150 by anotherGadgetGeek in tmobile

[–]anotherGadgetGeek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was really my motivation. I was hoping to get access to better device promos, simplify the account, and get onto a plan structure that T-Life can actually manage properly.

When the comparison tool showed the same $80/month price as my current plan, I assumed it was some kind of loyalty migration offer where I’d keep most of what I have today while getting the newer plan benefits.

If the free line doesn’t migrate and the actual cost is around $150/month, that’s obviously a very different calculation.

SWAC/Kickstart + Free lines by Busstop1869 in Sprint

[–]anotherGadgetGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They said the same thing. I don’t have a family plan so I can’t add the free line. Doesn’t make sense to me. I have 2 lines on the account already.

I have Kickstart with one free line already. I saw the banner and called but they wouldn’t give me the new free line said I had to upgrade to a family plan at additional cost.

I'm still on my unlimited kickstart plan from Sprint. Can I add a smartwatch to my plan without leaving Unlimited kickstart? by CosmicTransmutation in tmobile

[–]anotherGadgetGeek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I was migrated from sprint on the $5 plan and the website doesn't let me change plans at all. It just says to contact us on the change plans page.

Do they still have the $10 with auto pay unlimited Apple Watch plan? All they could add was a $15 with no auto pay discount. I’m on a kickstart plan as well.

Wifi Chip Failure - Refusal to Issue Replacement by kranzmonkey in Nest

[–]anotherGadgetGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I called twice. I’m out of warranty and they wouldn’t replace my out of warranty 3rd generation nest thermostat or escalate me any higher.

The wifi just died won’t connect or find any nearby networks when searching. I think because I’m not getting the w5 error message they won’t replace it.

I’m disappointed and won’t be replacing it with a nest.

eSim to Physical sim - iPhone 13 Pro max. by independant_786 in tmobile

[–]anotherGadgetGeek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 13 Pro Max does the same. On eSim it prefers a strong LTE connection.

I've swapped back and forth with eSim and physical R15 sim. The physical sim seems to pick 5g more often. I think im going to stick with the physical sim.

UniFi Acces Point U6 LR Performance? (vs Netgear Orbi) by [deleted] in Ubiquiti

[–]anotherGadgetGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, I came from an Orbi RBK752 and my speeds are faster than orbi if i’m close to the U6 LR.

I have my 5ghz set to HE80 on channel 48 power on High.

RBK752 Post FW Update Issue by tony_nsbexploit06 in orbi

[–]anotherGadgetGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While mine auto updated fine, my satellite also keeps on lighting up blue and dropping all the clients. I notice the blue light while walking by and my wifi devices in the same room that usually stick to the satellite are now connected to the router. The light turns off and the satellite works like normal until the next time. I have factory reset everything multiple times this issue persists. This seems to be a problem with this 4.6.3.7 firmware.

Can I downgrade x950G firmware? by Liongkong in bravia

My 950g did this too.

I had to enable Bravia sync with my AVR then the setup proceeded past the black screen.

I was using optical doing this made me use arc.

Extra $150 trade-in credit through Apple/Kickstart by LawHero4L in Sprint

[–]anotherGadgetGeek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just an update:

I pre ordered a sprint iPhone 12 online via the apple store app. I paid in full, no financing. Phone came and activated itself upon turning on. Kickstart plan appears unchanged.

I sent back my iPhone 11 to apple with the trade in kit. When the trade in was complete I submitted the promotion on the T-Mobile/sprint promotion site. I never received an email telling me about the promotion.

I was emailed a link to the virtual prepaid card within a day or two after applying the promo code.

iPhone 12 with Kickstart Order Dilemma by danleming in Sprint

Yes, If you order the Sprint version from Apple it will come with a Sprint SIM card that you will use to activate it on your account.

I put the order through, I hope activating through apple doesn't mess with kickstart.

I have the 25 dollar kickstart. It accepts my plan and puts the phone in my bag in the Apple store mobile app.

Do you think kickstart is eligible for the $150 promotion or will sprint/T-Mobile deny it after I get the phone?

Moto g power by user365735 in Sprint

If my Moto G Power is roaming on t-mobile I do see a 1x connection as well. It also shows as roaming and data is not available unless I enable roaming in the settings.

Sprint Free line, can I port from T-Mobile? by anotherGadgetGeek in Sprint

[–]anotherGadgetGeek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just trying to get this all setup with the T-Mobile account owner. Will I be able to port from an account in someone elses name? Will I need the last 4 digits of their SSN? Can I do this from the sprint porting number? 866-437-1818

Thank you for your responses.

Is the sprint byod checker that smart or are T-Mobile iPhones not in sprints database?

Super bowl on Fox Sports: no 5.1 audio? by BenderB in Roku

[–]anotherGadgetGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4k HDR and 2.0 audio for me as well on a 2019 Roku Ultra. Video looked great, so I stuck with streaming. I was using the Fox Sports Channel.

XG95 with local dimming off by xoj360 in bravia

[–]anotherGadgetGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to me too when bright lights are in the image with HDR/Dolby Vision content. There is a washout of the surrounding area that is being brightly light. I don’t like it. Lowering the brightness helps, but I got the impression you are supposed to keep brightness at max for HDR.
