data is active, but slow as all hell
I use an android phone and For the past 2 to 3 days, my data has been so slow that I can't access downloads on certain apps. I don't what it is, but its getting annoying. Usually, I would just chalk it up to t mobile tower troubles. However, I've had a history of my data coverage being so trashy. And it's because of one thing that still don't freaking understand and that: the carrier hub application. Someone explain to what the hell it does and why does my service always get worse when is have to mess for an update or permission or whatever. I've been dealing with this carrier hub bull crap for a few good years using t mobile and it still gets on my nerves.
Text messages not sending and being received
Samsung Galaxy s24 Ultra here. Yesterday I started to have a problem sending and receiving text messages. I would send messages and they would go through hours later, same for receiving. This is happening with a known iPhone user and a known Android user. Any idea what the issue is?

I only get 2 bars of service, and 2 bars is the highest it’ll go. I paid for another month not too long ago, and it still doesn’t go past 2. I’ve tried everything from restarting to re-inserting the sim card again. I really don’t want to think I paid $50 just for 1-2 bars. Is there anything else I can do to get my data to reach 4 bars again? My phone model is theiPhone XS Max.Is it possible that T-Mobile is finally getting more accurate on converage maps ?
Is it me …or does it appear like T-Mobile only updates their coverage maps with real dead zones when they have a mandate to …fix it ? For ~5 years, (TBH, since the old ‘verified coverage, as well as the ‘green’ maps), T-Mobile has stated - with the full fury of T-Mobile’s executive response team, office of executive management and people like John Saw/Neville Ray that ‘Our engineers have verified 5G and LTE extended range coverage’ at specific addresses, while showing it on their coverage maps and …stating that there are “No updates or enhancements” planned. Now, after more than a½of a decade and obtaining this in writing …T-Mobile now shows all of these areas as …“No Service”. The ‘Happy Hill’, ‘West Village’, and ‘Marine Terrace’ areas have not had service in +10 years. I’m not sure to be happy that T-Mobile is finally getting accurrate (which they have claimed they always have been) or that I’ve been gaslit for quite some time by their executives. I’m sure that there will be ‘some’ form of excuse.
