For anyone who has tried switching over, what’s your experience with them been like? Were there any hidden upsides or downsides you weren’t expecting? What about coverage? It’s really hard to ignore them when they keep spamming ads to YouTube, my favorite podcasts, etc.

    Maybe you need to change your access point to mint’s? I drove from Oregon to Michigan and and the only bad spot was in areas that just flat out didn’t have any service. It was spotty at first but I found that I needed to change the AP in my network settings.

    All the MVNO are deprioritized, Verizon’s policies are the worst of the big 3. T-Mobile’s policy allows for much more traffic so it’s not nearly as noticable. AT&T MVNOs have almost no difference between themselves and proper AT&T monthly service.

      I’m still trying to figure out how to get my phone to let me add an APN my P6P doesn’t do anything when I hit save even after taking out my Tmo SIM and rebooting. Maybe still a daemon on there locking that and ill have to reset the phone.

      EDIT: Fixed it by just setting the name to deeznutz I guess it doesn’t like having an APN listed with the same name as the carrier, I assume that first name box is just for personal organization and ID and doesn’t affect anything.
