I ran through all my monthly 4g data so while trying to watch a stream of video it said audio only my data was too slow...

So point is I used anycut switched to 3g only until next bill runs at full speed and ran my stream great!

So want your speed back up after the cap switch until your new data is opened again.
 
Most people have the unlimited planning which just recently was $55 , but that's a good find seeing as metros plans might change with this t-mobile merge.
 
The unlimited $55 promotional plan also has a cap limit.
60 gig. If you go over that, your 4g will connect, but you will receive speeds of around 99kbps.
I will have to try disabling the 4g and using 3g if it happens to me again.

never heard of that, where you get that from? Just curious. ;)
 
My wife and I were both capped when we hit 60 gig while watching Netflix. They refused to uncap us. They stated that using that much data was a TOS violation.
I tried for a week to get anyone to respond to me, no one did.
I just got a canned message stating that we were having our speeds reduced due to extreme usage.
We spoke to reps that contacted corporate directly and confirmed that you will be capped after 60 gig.
So, their advertisement of watch as much streaming video as you want is a lie.
It is false advertising. It is impossible to watch as much streaming video as you could possibly want since they will cap you and it won't stream at 99kbps.
You live you learn, I put a data monitor on my phone so I could keep track. If you use a lot of data, I suggest you do the same.
 
I have an Esteem, My wife had an Esteem, then switched to the Connect, now the Motion.
I would really like an SIII with Metro, but we will see...

Oh I wasn't talking to you ;)

But judging by you picking up all the best/better phones on metro you'll definitely have one! Ahaha ;)
 
I don't know about better...
I like the Esteem, and I don't think the Connect was an upgrade.
My wife liked it, bit the overheating and poor battery life got to her.
The Motion is a neat toy...fast, ICS, but much smaller screen and MDPI and a locked bootloader?
Just not what I want in a phone.
She really misses the ability to theme, and she really wants to uninstall some of the Google Apps, but we bricked it the first night after messing with Google Play Books...
The unbrick guide works really well, by the way...

About the Google apps if she goes into settings/apps all apps she can go to the pre installed apps and disable them it's the same as freezing them :thumbup:
