I purchased an iPhone 5 maybe 4 weeks ago from Best Buy on an upgrade.? I was really surpised and happy to see I was pulling 4G LTE all around the Chicago land area.? Even downtown where it was not suppose to be yet, I was able to get 4G LTE and the speeds were MUCH better than the 3G speeds of Sprint's recent times.? Happy camper.
?
Early November rolls around and my iPhone's gorilla glass decides to pop up on the right side of the phone creating a creaky to the touch iPhone, so ******!? So I take it back to Best Buy and arange for a return when Apple sends more iPhone 5's out the wild.? monday November 12th rolls around and I pop into my local Best Buy with my old creaky iPhone still pulling data from 4G LTE ready to exchange for a new one, hopefully post Apple's quality demand policy.? I swap the phone at Best Buy and activate over Celluar Data.? I go home about an hour late and do a full restore from my iCloud back.?
?
I then leave my house to run additional errands.? I noticed when I left I was not pulling any cellular data.? I kept receiving an error saying something like Not Subscribed to a Cellular Data Network Plan although I was pulling 3G and 4G LTE in the normal spots.? I called Sprint Customer service assuming the setup/activation did not take and I needed to a do a Network push or reset, etc.?? I spend an hour? on the phone with a customer service rep and I was not able to get the issue resolved.? He suggested I take it back as it might a phone problem.? Great.? So I go immediately back to Best Buy and immediately the Mobile phone rep claims its Sprints's network tower's etc.? My wife has a iPhone 4S on my Sprint plan and was receiving data this entire time.? Calls were coming thru my phone and text, just data was not activating.? I had a hard time believing it was Sprint as I just had my old creaky iPhone 5 running great and my wife's and daughter's iPhone 4S not having any problems.?
?
Eventually after about an hour of hitting refresh while outside of 3G service in the "O" network, I stopped receiving the error message and was able to load a web page in the browser.? I called Sprint later that day ****** and looking for answers.? I was told a tower was down and would not be back until the 16th of Novemeber.? I am able to receive data fine but have not received any LTE service since Monday.? I know there is a SLEW of updates happening in the area.
?
I am posting this is a annoucment.? If anyone has answers great.? I searched and scoured to find anyone that had this issue as well.? I am the only Sprint iPhone 5 user in the Chicago burbs?
