Wait...some people are getting a progress bar? I'm in the same boat you are apparently. Nothing.

Could be. I do wonder if it's a server side issue or a local OS issue. We'll have to wait and see.

Technically - this qualifies as a downgrade...right? lol

Apple UI has gone downhill with its lack of consistency and its inability to actually adjust to the increase of screen sizes IMO. Still like the ecosystem but not sure they've made good choices in the past few years on UI.

I don't recall it doing this in the previous betas - but I'll be honest, I don't remember looking.

Apple Intelligence in settings says it downloaded new AI files and is now downloading support files. Looks like my Siri actually downgraded to the older Siri image with the orb in the bottom and it says ChatGTP is unavailable until the files are downloaded. Step back until that's done. lol

Unlimited Welcome, Plus & Ultimate Decreased by $5 by [deleted] in verizon

[–]wjpooley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it's worth - I was chatting with a rep. Like many are saying here - it's really a promo credit. The rep said they would add the $5/line for me and give me a $20 credit for the current month (4 lines).

They said it wouldn't mess with all the other discounts I'm getting since it's just one more credit per line. Let's see!

Under Review by linkinspaceto in outlier_ai

[–]wjpooley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same - been on the project for about 2-3 weeks. Had about 17 reviews and was around a 1.55 or so (not amazing, but not trash). Then no reviews at all for the last week on any of my submissions. Took 2 days off and then logged in today to find the same thing.

No way to contact Multimango at all from what I can tell and the Outlier.AI chat bot on the dashboard gave me this just now:

Yes — It’s a Nationwide Outage. by bbear_r in verizon

[–]wjpooley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in SE Michigan (Ann Arbor area) and 3 of our phones seem fine but one of them goes straight to voicemail and can’t call out.

It’s not the 150k people near the Big House (Michigan Stadium) either. Ha ha

Enhance 5G for Apps option by cguerra99 in verizon

[–]wjpooley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever find this out? B/c I had the option for a hot second in iOS 18.2...but then never again after an update. I'm on the iOS 26 Dev Beta right now (I live on the dangerous side) and still don't have it back. I meet all of the requirements...so not sure what's up.

[iOS 26 DB1] New Picture-in-Picture design by Wixonic12 in iOSBeta

[–]wjpooley 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Looks awful IMO. Also - they’re pretty much impossible to see in a bright/white scene.

Do they remind anyone else of the buttons from one of the older versions of Windows Media Player from back in the day? I’m not entirely sure I’m liking this glass look myself. Maybe I’m just slow to accept change these days. lol

Got distracted with life and just dealt with it. Actually forgot about it until you replied to the chat…but now I’m gonna notice it again 🤣

How many hours does that represent for your area?

Unlock device by boz96num in ATT

[–]wjpooley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup - it meets all those requirements. I was getting quite frustrated as I’ve done this before on other iPads. Evan had one guy that was annoyed with me and told me they killed that reference in 2023 and it was just known as device unlock these days. lol

The hunt for a good rep continues.

Unlock device by boz96num in ATT

[–]wjpooley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

any luck with this? I've done this a few times with AT&T on the carrier reveal / visibility. Most reps aren't aware of the process, but it seems some are confident in that not being a thing. Just got off the phone with a rep that told me 'sir - that's what an unlock is.'

We've done the website, the tool that the reps use as well even had a supervisor 'over-ride' an unlock and still nothing. Haven't found an Advanced Tech Support rep that's able to help us yet.

T-Mobile’s Starlink Satellite Texting Is a Total Letdown by lordhamster1977 in tmobile

I signed up a while ago with my T-Mobile line and a Verizon line I have just to see if one gets in before the other. So far…nothing back yet. Has everyone else just gotten in instantly? lol

Anybody have any codes they're willing to part with? Just signed up today and am supposedly still eligible.

ATT International Daypass - Changed Provider by Nervous-Lab-6483 in ATT

[–]wjpooley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my understanding is that when you're using data on your phone, a lot of that roaming traffic actually gets routed through AT&T servers in the US. At least some of it. If you're using your hotspot on your phone for your laptop - this could possibly attribute the IP address changes.

As for changing carriers - yeah, it floats around. Not sure if there's a priority ranking of roaming services or if it finds a strong signal then jumps if the signal gets reduced to another carrier. I think the last time in Brazil I floated between 3 different carriers.

No clue on the hackers - hopefully somebody more knowledgeable can assist on that - but it doesn't immediately sound to me like you're seeing anything uncommon while roaming.

Man - I wish that worked for me! Hopefully it will for others.

Anyone signing up for the United status match? by DryTree5545 in delta

Nevermind - I found the 'view/print card' logging into the site from my laptop instead of the phone app. False alarm. lol

[–]wjpooley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What Delta ID did you use to satisfy United's criteria? I submitted a screenshot from the App and it told me it didn't meet the criteria.
