T-Mobile Will Announces Its Plans For a “New T-Mobile” After its Merger with Sprint Today at 10 AM Eastern.

The FCC voted to approve the merger of Sprint and T-Mobile. This paved the way for the deal to be finalized as the DOJ has already approved of the merger. According to the FCC Sprint and T-Mobile have also agreed that within six years, 90% of Americans would have access to mobile service with speeds of at least 100 Mbps and 99% of Americans would have access to speeds of at least 50 Mbps. Now T-Mobile says they will  announce  their plans for a “New T-Mobile” that will combine T-Mobile and Sprint  at 10 AM Eastern. According to T-Mobile, this  New T-Mobile  will offer a “real, nationwide 5G for All, the New T-Mobile will open massive wireless highways and lower prices for ALL Americans. We can ignite innovation and challenge a failed status quo. A status quo that opponents of this merger want to preserve. A status quo that has left too many Americans looking across a Digital Divide, paying too much for too little, with too few options, tolerating terrible treatment and believing

Want RCS chat on your phone right now? Here's how to enable it

#RCS #Google #RCSchat #Android #Sprint #Verizon #ATT #TMobile The latest Google Messages beta brings RCS chat to Android phones, but it needs to be enabled in a hidden settings menu. RCS seems to work in every country we tested it in (not an exhaustive list), and with several different Android phones. RCS also seems to work on all carriers we've tried, including the four big U.S. carriers. It wasn't too long ago that Google enabled RCS Chat on Android phones  in some European countries , and now it seems ready to flip the switch in a number of other countries as well. A rather astute user  on Reddit  figured out that enabling RCS on Android devices is just a few clicks away, and it has us wondering why it's this easy when U.S. carriers can't seem just  flip the switch already . Enabling RCS on your phone isn't all that different from how it worked when Google flipped the switch for European users, but it involves just a few additional steps. Firs

T-Mobile just announced how it will use wireless networks to take on the cable industry

#TMobile #5G #Wireless #Cable T-Mobile said on Thursday that it will begin a trial delivering home broadband service using its wireless network, an example of how mobile carriers are planning their next push into the cable internet business. While T-Mobile will use its current 4G LTE network for the pilot, the service will eventually be run on the faster 5G network, which is in the pipeline for T-Mobile, AT&T and Verizon. Bringing wireless service into the home means consumers won't need to run cables all over the house or rely on a single Wi-Fi router to provide coverage to many rooms. By getting in the door now, T-Mobile can try to establish a base of customers and keep pace with AT&T and Verizon, which are already bringing 5G to the home in select markets. AT&T and Verizon offer a cable-like service using their existing wired networks, but T-Mobile doesn't. Since T-Mobile is still waiting for regulatory approval to merge with Sprint, it will use this hom
