Sure is for a lot of places that are more rural in the national park than me, Im lucky that I'm close to an exchange and get a constant 20mb connection . I'm looking forward to the day when I can beat that speed on my mobile at home

I use the beanstalk ROM which has an option in settings.
It's much better than the network signal info app which can't actually differentiate.

No he means the fact it differentiates between H+ and DC-HSPA+.

Should be the same version

You just go to advanced settings, then signal style and there will be an option there.

such a high variety of customization from android smartphones... all look different , there are widgets and launchers , new themes and virtually infinite customization ways

all iphones look the same with only a different wallpaper...pathetic and primitive...

So for all the arguments about how crap iOS is because it isn't as customisable as Android, how great widgets are...

...you have a big clock taking up half your home screen.

Just sayin'

Not coming up DC. Just H+ which is fine because stock on the N4 doesn't show that anyway!

Loving the rom so far however

Phone signal bars are completely meaningless.

They have nothing to do with how much signal you actually have.

Lol I wouldn't say NOTHING to do with signal.

Why is it that the more bars I have the lower the DBM is? And the more bars I have the faster my Internet speed tests are? NOTHING to do with signal you say? Lol

As somebody who went from Android to iOS its better! I no longer waste time customising useless home screens, with widgets i don't actually use as i end up loading the actual app with icons all over the place. If i am unlocking my screen its normally to do a task, ie open BBC News and iOS is much more efficient at doing that, straight to the apps and grouped, job done.

You mean you have to tap or swipe to get to some other stuff?

I understand that people prefer them, but I don't think they offer much additional benefit, when you can have access to literally hundreds of apps within two taps of the home screen.

Anyway, just joshing - don't take this too seriously.

I'd post mine, but its just a boring grid of icons.
