OK guys im going to use as much roaming data as I can to see of sprint will boot me. Netflix should help lol.

Im going to switch to vzw if i can get sprint to boot me. VZW just fired up 4g in my area and sprint is no where close to doing that.

Anyone know what the best phone coming out for vzw is? I need an active dev community to consider the phone. Tbolt is OK but as I have said its behind the times if im buying a new phone. Whats next the droid charge?

Also we will get to know whether sprint actually will kick someone for using too much data and how much is too much...

the bionic sounds like a nifty device :)
 
Ha ive always used my phone as a guinea pig for you guys :). If i didnt know the answer and it took me a minute to respond its because i was doing it on my own phone first before I told you to lol. Ive flashed and tested more things than i cared to just so i could speak on it for someone else. I have fixes on my phone i have never used just because i ran across it and thought someone might need it some time.

This will be my last test for you guys :), unless sprint puts up with me using verizon 3g and never connecting to my wifi....? I used 2 gig last month and that was with wifi, i think i can get there :).
 
alright beast join the club, they just launched here like a month ago, found out at the bar this weekend. And they full on launched, im not in the extended coverage area im smack in the middle of the prime area.

Sprint 4g closest to me is 2 hours away and their coverage bands are more like dots. LTE coverage is sprawling.

Also, vzw is turning on 4g in numerous other places on thursday.

Hell my sprint 3g is under 100k here and i dont have 4g which is why i am using vzw 3g. Im tired of paying sprint for data they dont provide but im not giving them an ETF either so heres to gettin kicked.
 
Lets see who gets booted first...lol. I'm going to get on line tomorrow and figure out how to do this... never had to before
 
plenty of threads here explaining, but i always google hack sprint 3g xda, it will take you to techknowfiles thread with the instructions and prls

Edit: i use 0001
 
youre gonna be severly missed in here man. im gonna hafta step up my game to try n pick up the slack created by your absence holmes. I still think torrenting stuff overnight is gonna be a solid bet. find some mega huge files to torrent and let er fly all night while you sleep. Thatll rack up the gigs quicker than s__t! and not stepping in poop is always relevant lol kinda like not eating yellow snow!!!! :P

yeah, its a dual core, but who knows whats gonna launch in the next few weeks esp if vuzzwuh is gonna launch LTE in several areas soon

oh, and whats your other device? your gf got an evo too?
 
I have been trying for two months. 5gb roaming data last month. ....not a word from sprint. The last termination threat I read online the guy received after 1yr+ of using verizon orlando

Recently I found att will have 4g here in bfe and I am within the verizon 4g extended area. Veronicas inspire and the aria I just face my son both hit 2.5 mb dl here at the house on att hspa + or whatever they call it. 4g should be insane

Add a line on att is only $10....its the data that I thought would kill me but at 5-6gb a month it would be a wash

Yeah I'll do that.

Just looked at vzw phones, ugh only like the tbolt right now, no droid bionic yet...?

Guess it'll be 1ghz dual core if it ever comes out...? Has to be unencrypted though or I'll just get a tbolt.

I know benchmarks are not a great indication but it way out performed the evo on all the ones I tried...

4g is the shiz, I can actually get away from time warner completely if I had it
 
Well whats the worse that can happen..Sprint just gets mad and wont cancel the contract...I done really see a down side......except cant use me Evo
