Yeah, I know this has been asked before. Just wanted a poll result to see what my fellow AndroidForumers would do.
Here's the deal:
- Getting horrible signal at my house
- Called in Jan 2011 to complain, they said they were upgrading towers
- Called in Apr 2011 to complain that it hadn't changed. They said they're behind on upgrades and reimbursed me for the first three months
- Called last week (6/25/11) to complain when I couldn't even send SMS or make a call, nevermind 3G (never mind 4G!!)
They said I need to bring my phone in to be checked. I tried to get out of it because I can go 1/2 mile from my house and get a GREAT signal. They tried to say it is my house and I said no, because it is the same in my driveway. I literally have to wrap up calls a few blocks away because they will get dropped. They asked if I live in a rural area - I do not. I'm within Winston-Salem, NC city limits.
So, I did a nandroid (loved how it was running on CM7.1) and flashed a stock de-odexed kernel.
Should I?
- Bring it in with the stock kernel?
- Unroot and do the OTA update?
Don't want to void my warranty since Sprint now has us on this 24 month upgrade schedule.
