I just switched from MetroPCS (which is T-Mobile's prepaid) to Boost. Coverage so far is fine, probably better.

My issue is text messages. They sometimes seem to get stuck, and if I power cycle my phone, I'll find old messages. I'm using the LG Volt, which I'm otherwise enjoying.

Anyone here have this experience? Is it the phone or the service?

I do plan on calling to complain, but I doubt I'll get a straight answer from them.

Well, we're not supposed to start new threads, right?

I could probably do it, though, if I opened three browsers, started four threads, and cancelled three of them.

I updated the PRL a few days ago, and it seems to be working fine since then.

Can someone please take a moment to answer.

How is Boost Mobile coverage in Lakewood, NYC & Monsey?

(They officially run on Sprint Network, which I'm using now and am ok with.)

I was wondering if Sprint "downgrades" their coverage for their MVNOs.
