I'm thinking about going back to metro pcs

Wow that's not cool. On my Samsung galaxy s blaze I get up to 10mb. But, maybe all of that speed isn't really necessary lol. I hope I don't have that problem on my lg connect or esteem. It depends which one I may buy if I switch back. =)

Think of it this way....

I downloaded ALL files necessary to root, instal a rom and remove network governors in less time than it took to go an oldschool session of nazi zombies to round 14

Oh... and no files corrupted, got it all the first time with no issues.

Hmmm so does that mean you got better service?

What do you play on? PC, PS3, or Xbox?
 
Well its like this, my friend has a samsung exhibit on t-mobiles 4g network. Make no mistake t-mobile gets about 3 times the 4g speed metro does. But the phone selection is horrible the connect KILLS everything on t-mobile's prepaid lineup, especially for the price. But metro has comparable service in a few markets (so I've heard) so given a little more time they will improve. But I lived on a 3mb dsl line for years and while downloads can be a little slow but even 1st person shooters and MMORPGS run perfect on bandwidth like that and I've never had a problem with youtube on the 4g connection. If thats all you want it to do then the connect is definately the way to go.
 
yeah, 4mbps is more than enough to field any streaming video with very little to no buffer.

and honestly, having 10-20mbps speeds is useless if you only get 5gbs per month. its like having a Lamborghini with an engine that shuts off after 5 miles of driving.

That's exactly how I feel. You buy a $400 phone for good speeds but only it goes sooooooooooo slow when over the limit. I'm used to slow speeds with Samsung, admire but this is, crazy
 
Sooooo I purchased the lg connect 4g, and I love it!!! I'm going to switch my T mobile number back to metro right now :D

It's good to be back :D

Ummm one question though. Like metro PCs do have good phones and plans but why is I the customer service bad? How do you deal with it?
 
THE W said:
Exactly, I don't deal with it.

Well that's true hahaha I also hear that you can travel with a metro PCs. Is that true?

And I'm so used to streaming music with my Samsung admire all the time like I heart radio and not worry about a, limit now with fast 4g it's different because of a limit. But even you use your 4g data does it go back down to 2g speed which is the same, speed the admire is?
 
THE W said:
I'm unthrottled. So nope.

Oh haha that's fair enough. I thought about going unlimited though if I can't deal with 5GB lol I hope metro PCs really expands the 4g and improve the lte. I see plenty of potential in metro

Oh and I'm back I'm the section 8 apartment but I get 2 bars or 1 but my speed is 1.5 Mb that's acceptable to me.
