I guess the only thing i see is where it says they can disable your account if your rooted or have unofficial software on your phone. How you supposed to get technical support if you cant really say yeah i rooted. Its unheard of for a carrier to disable a account but just knowing they can makes you have to jump through hoops with them when your on the phone with them.

Yeah I think all carriers have some little tidbit like that in the agreement. So we don't root and tether without paying them for the same data twice. Dirty rotten scoundrels. Verizon goes so far as to lock most of their bootloaders. At&t too. That's why I will never go with either of those, no matter how good of a deal they offer.
 
Idk i guess its cause i pay $75 for service a month and $250 on this phone i like being able to use customer service since iam their customer. I usually call customer service everyday for something or if i have questions. I know some people can live without customer service but id rather have it.
 
Theres alot of people who pay more money than i do and im coming to the conclusion no one is going to rom up or root this phone cause they spend alot of money on service and wont play with their phones.

I have boost and have had it for 4 years now and never called customer service ever. Rooted from day one and figured small problems for myself and never had any major problems. I got my phone off ebay for $125, activated it online without talking to anyone, broke a phone and got another off ebay and actvated it online without talking to anyone. I pay $40 for everything, use wifi at home and never pay anymore. Sounds like you got a bad deal on yours and your service, and if you have to call customer service so much you might have made a bad choice on a phone and service. I'm keeping my s3 for a while longer before upgrading, this phone is great and does what I want and is all tricked out.
 
Just curious this question is to anyone else with the data done right phone. Do you plan on rooting or installing a rom if you pay over $65 a month for 2 lines or more. Will you let the security of whoever is on your lines go just so you can have root.
 
Did i say what i call customer service for yes to ask questions. How is paying $25 per line a bad deal. Thats a hell of a lot cheaper than your service of $40 and i bet you dont get free wifi on stock i bet you had to root and install a rom to get everything you have on it. So it sounds like you got the bad deal.

Wow! A couple of posts back you mentioned 75 dollars a month and then your post right before this 1 you mention 65 a month and now it's 25 a month, you need to get your facts straight before you going post stuff, whatever!

Does boost mobile come with theses options.
 
And it gets last priority on sprints network, lol. Behind boost and standard vm. Network gets congested with upper tier traffic, data done right slows to a crawl. Read the fine print. Post paid sprint customers who use less than 23 GB per month get top priority. It's all relative.
 
Last priority.. this phone just got a system update and is like months old its actually top priority over your standard phones cause we who actually pay money for service get more on data done right.
 
We all know the phone very well. Its just the triband with an account manager for additional lines. Same phone, same kernel, baseband, system, and hardware. No secret, magic technology. No matter how bad you want it to be different, its not. My coworker sitting right next to me has it. We've rooted, flashed ROMs, Odin flashed, the whole nine yards. Its just a plain old triband. The only difference is the network side.

I know what I'm talking about, and there are many users here and on xda who will tell you that I do. No one is posting here because you've been posting random nonsense. Most don't want to touch this thread because you actually reject facts in place of weird gibberish. I'm hoping some of the true knowledge members are giving you is sticking. We have tried to help you learn real things about your phone and replace some of the misconceptions you have with actual tested knowledge. Its awesome to have theories, but when the actual answers are given to you... It makes sense to use them to increase your knowledge base.
I don't post, or answer posts, if I don't know the answer. You are a curious case bud.
And when I said it gets last priority, I meant data done right phones get last priority on sprints network.
Its just the facts of data priority on sprint mvno's.

Thats for sure, I'm on here and xda and you are all over and everywhere, if you were a fake others would have brought that out long time ago. Keep up your good work, wish I knew as much as you do.
 
Go out and get one of the data done right phones until then i have nothing to say to anyone who doesn't have any experience with one. I dont need inexperienced replies. So im not replying to anyone in the thread who doesn't have a data done right phone.
 
Apparently you can't read, or just choose not to, that Madbat has personally rooted and installed a custom rom on a Data Done Right phone belonging to a coworker. See post #118. I also saw him mention this before in a previous post a page or 2 back, which you also ignored.

Edit: post #94 he mentioned it, and then in post #99 you asked if anyone has done it yet completely ignoring his post.

Other than him ignoring that, he said he won't reply anymore unless someone with that phone chimes in and no one has so thats the last we should hear from him.
