This is pretty ridiculous. I get pulling the update on April 14th due to the boot looping. But.... its June 1st and still nothing. Like June Security is gonna be out and were still sitting on launch software or March if ur phone didn't brick. Any guesses as to what the hell the holdup is? My theory is they discovered that everyone's phone is a software time bomb and any updates they are testing causes them to spazz out. And for anyone who's gonna say blah blah its how updates go...... I'm just seeing what some other theories are and letting others voice their opinions. :)

I couldn't agree more. It's June 1st, and we still don't have an update.

Couldn't agree more. Love T-Mobile's responses to questions.
"We know how important software updates are to customers. We want to make sure ur running the most up to date software." Big FAT Lie lol.

Most likely wifi calling.
Possibly VoLTE.
Any carrier specific apps.

Wi-Fi calling for T-Mobile works fine on the Unlocked S9+
Some of the carrier specific stuff downloads when the SIM registers to the T-Mobile network. But you can download the rest of the apps if you want them from the Play Store.

You don't have all the bloat unless you choose to install it.

Any downsides? Does SamsungPay still work? That's a big one for me.

Samsung Pay works fine. I have no downsides. Though I have never used a branded T-Mobile phone since I have been on T-Mobile, so maybe I don't know what I am missing, if anything.

I'm on At&T, and any unlocked phone always disabled the carrier wifi calling and volte.

So stupid. I contacted support and they said they had no timeline of any future updates. Canada got theirs today...

    Do you know if band 71 is active on arf2? That's my only concern. I assume this is active or inactive based on the radio version. I assume that changed between updates.

    Looks like it is active
