try entering any two points in South Korea... for example: ICN airport to anywhere downtown Seoul. it will tell you that no directions available for driving or walking... but apparently bus/transit directions work...

strangely, Google Maps navigation works in NORTH Korea.... for example... enter Pyongyang airport as the origin and the Swedish Embassy in North Korea as the destination... then navigation just works. :)

I am having issues in Kenya. All the usual tricks with Signal Spy restarting my phone etc aren't working. Chatted with support and they gave me a 20 dollar credit no questions asked and have escalated my case. I can get a T-Mo signal here just no data.

Are you base in the UK or US? I'm assuming you're using Fi as your primary carrier? Is your Google account US or UK based? How are you paying for your service?

Thank you.

Decent Fi signal in St. Bart’s, Tortola BVI, Samana Bay Dominican Rep, and Grand Turk. T Mo standard painfully slow in these same locations. But sending this on T Mo..

Was in jamaica (mainly mobay, and one day in negril) last week, with a pixel2 XL. Only hsdpa, never got any LTE. The gf used a data-only sim in her iphone (I think a 6 or 7), only got 3g. Speed was pretty weak as a result. Not sure if they are blocking LTE from Fi, as my phone should receive the AWS / lte band 4 spectrum that flow/lime is using in their rollout.

Were you recently in Morocco? Curious as FI just added Morocco as a covered country as it was previously in beta.

Yes - about 5 weeks ago - in Fez. Worked great.

Worked well in Tanzania, good service in Arusha and parts of the Serengeti. Strangely had no service at JRO.

The one thing about Fi is that I find the customer service to be spotty. I decided last Thursday to make an insurance claim on my Pixel 1 as I got sick of the bad battery life and my bluetooth cutting out whenever I put the phone in my left pants pocket. I called them on Thursday, informing them that I'd need the new device before 3pm on Saturday when I was planning to leave the USA for a trip abroad. They assured me that this was doable as the agent said he got permission for "expedited shipping". Well, it didn't ship until Friday afternoon and the tracking number they sent said it would be delivered on Monday. After multiple calls with Fi support, nobody I spoke with had the authority to call Fedex and change it to Saturday delivery even though they said it was not a problem to do so. By Saturday the phone still hadn't left Schaumburg, IL so I called fedex an hour before I was leaving for the airport to say "send it back to Google". Support staff are nice and all but nobody with any authority seems to be reachable. Seriously considering going back to Apple/TMo just because of the fact that I can walk into any Apple store in the world and get my phone repaired/replaced.

Additionally, I had a data-only sim that just stopped working. Nobody in tech support could help me to re-activate it so I had to order a new one.

Hoping they come up with some way for Fi to be supportable on iPhones so that I can go back to Apple for the hardware.

I wouldn't expect Google to try to expand the Fi market that aggressively.

About the same as what they have been doing with Fiber.

Or the Pixels, which only address the lower-volume flagship phone segment of the market.

Got an offer of $150 off a Pixel 2 XL today for the anniversary of Fi service. Pretty good deal.

How? Did they email you? Wondering if this means there's a new model coming soon.

New Nexus or Pixel models have usually come out around October and there tend to be a lot of rumors. You never know, but a new model seems unlikely at the moment.

Yes was an email offer. Should be available to all. It does require Fi activation but no minimum term of service. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...32d44a3ddf.png
