I did the Giants game Tuesday, ran into a driver as I was waiting for the surge to build.Get off line and come chill at 711 until 3x fools
Idk man, it's just too coincidental the lack of functionality in only one of 2 regions in the whole bay area, the other one being the north bay. Maybe the higher demand and higher rates have something to do with it.Think it's a server load issue. It shows at times when driver count is low.
Server overloads, doesn't respond to app, app defaults to no surge
There's always the unknown with a concert or sporting event. Unless you're listening to the game or know someone attending a concert, timing is everything.I just don't get why anyone would pick up at a event with no surge . I would go crazy if someone puked in my car at South Bay normal rates . It's like driving uber India pool at normal rates ... no thanks
Yes, today would be a great example. It did not show at 5pm on my end either. But the surge at 6pm was incredible, I spotted 3.5 in soma (3.7 off the coast, but come on, who are they kidding) and it was consistent for me well into the 8 'o'clock hour. Not enough cars showing on the pax app eventhough it was rush hour. Less cars, servers were able to display surge.Right now, 1:53am surge is showing on the drivers app. (2.4x and I just went online)
It did a little in ninth inning as people started leaving AT&T, then it stopped.
At 5pm it never shows. Lots more drivers
I monitor my signal at all times using LTE Discovery, thanks to a tip from Adieu. Even why my signal is at full strength in the 60's or 70's, surge is still absent on the app.THis is all due to your network speeds and data connection. THe busier the networks are the slower everything runs. Your phone is just querying a server for fresh surge data to display, sometimes it cna't get the data fast enough and you need to stop moving the screen around and let it download or physically move to a spot with a better signal.
Signal must be weak in the bay area. I've never seen it below 62, no matter where in the bay I am.Full strength is ~43
Hmmmmm. With a clear line of sight to a cell tower I presume? I'll give it a whirl, thanksIt'll boil down to a specific parking spot, facing a specific direction
I'm not sure I buy this because even on wifi at home, I have the same sporadic behaviorYour looking at old data. Your not getting a a solid data connection in most of these situations. The bars are not representative of your data connection. You can have four bars and zero data. your LTE is having to switch to slower speed networks when it loses a LTE connection so it can get stuck not finding a network.
Android. I'm getting an iPhone as a secondary just because luber has distinct features available on each platform it seems.i dunno, ditch the phone. is it a iPhone? those things are worthless anyway
I've seen them on the way to Lake Tahoe of all places, but everything is artificially disguised to look like a tree. You can see your signal strength getting stronger as you approach and weaken as you drive away.Wouldn't know, haven't consciously seen a cell tower in my life.
Thanks but after using a 5.5" screen, I don't think I could go back to 4" lol, huge difference. I'm sure you wouldn't go back either.If you have any interest in an IPhone 5s, let me know. I have a 4 and 5s sitting here since I got my 6s and will be listing the 5s for sale soon. It works great and had I not had the option of a 2nd free 6s promo recently I would probably still be using it!
