I changed my phone plan today and upon restarting my phone I cannot view all my regular sites I normally read. WebGuard blocking the content. What kind of stupid ****?! I called and of course, could they help me?! NO! My age verification won't work. We tried 3 addresses and a misspelled name with no luck. Fml, go into a tmobile store, 2 miles away in a storm at 8pm. Ya sure tmobile, have a nice day too since you actually didn't have to resolve any problems today. There is no hack for this?

isntall another ROM or use Titanium backup to wipe internet.apk? idk if that would work but its worth a try
U need to log in to ur my tmobile account to turn off web guard. So log in to mytmobile, Then under the "manage" tab, selct "your profile" .. scroll down and you will see web gaurd settings. Select edit and change it...
If for some reason, you cant access your my tmobile account, for the time being you can download the app called, orbot, its an app created by the tor project, run the wizard to set it up and it will route you through different ip addresses which gets you around the web guard.
But first try logging in to ur account and checking the setting. Hope this helps let me know if you have any more questions

Webguard works beyond the phone, flashing a rom won't work. Need to age verify, only solution afaik, besides using tor.

Ya thanks guys I'll try the tmobile account and tor. No its my own account and I'm almost 30. I was really pissed, what kind of setting is that?! They told me it is automatically set in place on any new phone plan. Wtttf? The site I want to read has "hack" in the url. If that doesn't pissed me off even more! Hack = evil.
Also if I could figure out how to hit "thanks" from my phone eventually I will get it. Thinking I need to upgrade the XDA app.
*Edit* lol, it also works to just connect from home on my wifi. I was just woke up this morning in the West. Still you guys rock thanks.
*Edit2* on tor it says "you do not have permission to access / on this server. ffffffff

The comment I'm about to post may be irrelevant and unnecessary, but TMoUS in store associates are as smart as a box of rocks. So are the customer service. If I EVER have ANY issues here's what I do:
Customer Service (611) - DEMAND to speak to the loyalty department. If you've had tmo for more than 5yrs, they bend over backwards for you.
Tech Support (611) - Start off by demanding to talk to level 2 tech Support. Most everybody already possesses the common sense that level 1 has.

Well I changed my phone plan to the $50 a month unlimited plan. She offered for me to talk to her supervisor, but that there was no tech support level 2 specialist. I already know they are as dumb as a bag of rocks.. Trust me, I had to trade in both my MyTouch 4Gs because I had to call so many times. That literally everytime I have to call Tmo I cringe and I have even cried knowing what was to come. And they never disappoint to piss the living hell outta me. I wish I could switch to Verizon but I never owned a house or a credit card and they want $400 to sign me up as a deposit they will pay back at the end of the year... Not incl the money to join the plan.

Sorry you had a bad experience with your MT4Gs. Mine (now my sons) and my wife's were the best devices I've ever owned. I've never been as happy as I was with that phone. Usually I get a new phone every 3-6 months. I kept my mt4g for a year and a half and they're still running great. Almost as fast as my amaze :/

They did the same thing to me by random. They kept telling me "We can't verify your age" regardless of how they tried. My account was from 2003 so unless i got my t-mobile phone in my own name when i was less than 6 years old, Im fairly certain im over 18. They eventually figured it out 2 days with nothing more than disney channel and the like. Yuk..

Yea with the orbot. You will never believe what is happening with my phone now! I have literally done nothing different with my phone and it has completely started acting up. I didn't install any new apps except the tor project stuff. I called he said there should be no difference with my phone plan and how my phone is acting. Last night the touch screen would NOT respond. I was trying to copy n paste several hundred links at once. Sure this could freeze the phone, but this was worse, I restarted it several times, uninstalled apps that I actually use, deleted all my call history, text messages, cleared apps cache, and Internet browsing. Now this morning I am having the same issue as last night except no copy now pasting anything!
I also called because my Internet usage is only 4G for the first 100MB. I said can I upgrade bc I paid $50 yesterday. She said yeah. Yeah, it costs $60 to upgrade. Not $10... It's $60 a month for 2GB of 4G, or $50 a month for 100MB of 4G. I'm pissed. A whole month with 2G speed. My god ****ing tmobile. My ggggod!

I would take it back and exchange it at t-mobile. Or if your already past the time period send it to htc for a replacement.
As for the orbot, wen u opened the app, did u press menu and run the setup wizard? U have to do that so u can set all your apps to filter through orbot. After u do the set up, toggle it off and then back on and see if it works.
But like i said in the beggining, you can turn webguard off through ur mytmobile account

Yeah, on prepaid, you just verify your social (it sucks that it comes to that), but it was a relatively easy, automated process for me to turn it off... what's funny is that I went to sites like TPB for the first few days just fine... then a few days in, I got the webguard splashpage, lol.
Seriously, it's cake to turn it off, don't mess with Tor and whatnot, get it turned off.
Wow so I did it in my tmobile account. I had a legal name change almost 5 years ago and that is the name that allowed me to turn off my settings. How could they have my old name? I wasnt a member of tmobile until late 2011.

Just as the question states, I was going to go to the Sprint store on my way to work this evening and buy a Evo 3D. However the Sprint account is in my wife's name. I have been able to go up to the same store and upgrade her line for her, get our phones repaired etc. But this will be my first time charging a phone to it.
But my question is, since the account is in my wife's name. Does she has to be present in order for me to bill the account?
The store is an hour drive away for us. But it's near where I work. That's why I wanted to do it then.

If you have the password and pin # to the account you should be all set at any Sprint store. A phone call would be my first choice,to the closest Sprint store.
That's what I was told. As long as you have the pin you should be good. Like Wiley said tho, a phone call wouldn't hurt

You shouldn't have a problem. Our phones are in my wife's name because she works for a company that gives us a 23% discount on our bill. Yet I was able to upgrade our phones, swap our numbers around, change phones, etc.
I never needed a bill or anything. Just my name and our account pin number/password.
I called them and asked and they said my wife has to be present. I think they will let me get it though. They know me on a first name basis. I think when I called them though, they had no clue who it was or whatever. But I'll just stop by and see. If they say I need her, then we'll just order online.

As soon as i walked in there they all greeted me. I had a felling though if i go up there and they see my face , theyll recognize me and sell it to me.

So the other day im standing at the door waiting for my fiancée to go out for lunch and i dropped my phone on our hardwood (giggity) floor. It had a case on it and it couldnt have fallen from more than 3 feet. i picked it up turned on the screen nothing wrong. all was good. i get into the car and realize that the bottom half of my screen doesnt work. i have hboot 1.50.000 so as far as taking it back im pretty screwed. Not really having a choice i flashed a stock rom and took it in to the store. They told me that my insurance had carried over even though i had bought it off craigslist (which i didnt know) they said to come back in an hour and it would be good to go. I come back and the tech tells me that it couldnt be fixed. He asked me if i wanted to order a new one or i could have one that a customer brought back during their trial period, i checked it out it was in perfect shape plus it came with a screen protector. So in my head im thinking i just took my rooted broken phone in the store and am walking out with a new phone plus sum, all with out them knowing i had void my warranty! he activates the new 3d for me and just as hes handing it to me he says "Oh and just a heads up dont root this one." I could barely speak i just looked at him and said....al--right. haha but that is the kind of service i always get with my local sprint store. they ALWAYS are super nice and always take care of me. Is this story relevant to anything? not really but with all the sprint hate ive been reading i thought i would give them props. ive been with at&t, verizon and us cellular and sprint has surpassed all of them.
Rooting your phone doesn't void your insurance coverage with Sprint. If you pay them for it, they'll provide the service . Glad you got a replacement with no hassle or deductible.

Yea man you got a good tech. I'm a Sprint tech and per policy since we can't prove a device has been rooted we have to exchange/repair your device. But a lot of the techs like to have a power trip and give customers grief for rooted devices. We all have rooted devices at our store and I always encourage getting the most out of your device by rooting it

Check this out, live in a city called Oxnard in California. I've been calling stores looking for the phone. Today a best buy in another city, Thousand Oaks, said they had 2, which was perfect, since me and my dad both are making the upgrade. We drove an hour and a half away through memorial day traffic to go get them. (We both thought it was too good to be true.) Well we finally made it there safely, with both our moods great, especially since we've been waiting for this phone like crazy. We walk into the store (Best Buy Mobile) and are ready to make our purchases.
Guess what... The fukkface was confused with the O.G. model. They at minimum could have gave me a $10 BB Card, but no, they were instantly rude. This could have easily ruined my day. (which I think it did, but I'm in denial of being angry. LOL)
To answer your question, I do not know exactly, but I believe they are still periodically being checked by customs, but not held like crazy like they were before. My local Sprint store told me my pre order would be in by Wednesday.

My phone loses data so much that I can't download a different ROM. Doesn't matter where its 3g or wifi, my phone constantly loses signal just long enough to disconnect and cause any large downloads to fail. If there isn't a software update for this in the near future I'm going to be so upset because I bought the phone on day 1 which means my 30 day return window at best buy is up tomorrow. If this doesn't change by morning, and I don't see why it will, lol, I guesses I'll have to return the phone for a new one. Any suggestions or comments are welcome.
For what its worth, I'm running stock with goodies 1.43

I'm in the exact same boat as you. Bout it on day one when Best Buy could only fullfill the pre-orders on the 23rd of May. Sad to see my GF stream netflix on her EVO Shift while I struggled to stream music on my EV0 4G LTE. Don't know if it's worth turning it in for a new one, or if this is just how these phones perform? *SIGH...what to do...what to do? Does it have to be taken in to the same BB you bought it?
I don't know about the same store. I would assume you can take it back to any best buy. I'm thinking real hard about returning this one for a new one tomorrow. I mean, really, how much will it suck if I have to replace it through sprint insurance if its the phone? A $200 deductible now, that's crazy. I didn't pay $200 for the phone, why sink another $200 in it?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
If I were you I would take it back and exchange it for a new one. I just got mine last week and thus far haven't had a single problem downloading large files over wifi with mine. I can also stream pandora/iheartradio over 3g with no problems.
I always get the Best Buy Blacktie warranty for only $8/mo. I can swap the phone with no hassle. But I am really now considering on trading this in for a new one before the 30 days. At least I can hope that I get a better one with a clean activation. I still can't believe how bad data is on this phone. :crying:
I had the best buy insurance until I actually had to use it. To get a new phone, the have to send it out 4 times and have it come back still broken or unfixed. Each time they send it out it takes about a week to week and a half to get it back. Took me over a month and a half to get an old Evo replaced. At that time, I would have gladly given the hundred dollar deductible sprint charges. But now its $200 and I'm looking to have to use it within the first couple months? This is ridiculous.

I've found that it's not losing a data connection, Sense is killing the download.
My solution was to go to the settings, check the option to keep the screen on while charging. Then download the file while attached to the charger. Don't do anything else until the download finishes.
By keeping the download in the foreground, Sense won't kill it.
I'm now on Deck's CM9 build for this exact reason.
Good luck.

Sorry for the bad experience bud I can tell you that the geek squad protection has gotten a lot better. Now it does not take more than 3-5 days to get another one. For some reason actually the past 4 phones I send out they get it by the next day. Avg for us is about 2 days but it all varies by location of nearest service center from you. Still 3-5 days a good estimate on getting one back. Yes it is a.refurb phone also. If your uber lucky it could be new. Sent my buddies note out and he got a brand new one back. Sent others before and they were refurbs. Guess he has lucky lol

Wait, so they don't replace them on the spot anymore? That's too bad. Ř years ago I got my first smartphone. Blackberry Bold (still love it ) and got it from BestBuy. But back then, they would replace it on the spot. No shipping.but, its better than nothing I guess. I should ha e gone to BB. They would have given me $200 for my Verizon GN, and plus the gift card.

I may be wrong, but I don't think this particular issue is smart sync. I have issues downloading files even when the phone isn't sleeping. If I put the download in the background while using another app. It is nearly impossible to download a ROM without keeping it in the foreground.
Either way, can you name the app?

After yesterdays updated finally I can see my $10.00 in the prepaid Wallet...Then today went to use it and wont work!! ( Im rooted ) Then I used my wifes Evo lte not rooted and worked perfect!!!
What the Hell!!! ? any suggestions?
!!!!!!!! UPDATE !!!!!!! Tried today 7/13 and worked after 4 tries at a local gas station!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm also rooted and did set up mine, it did show my 10 bucks, then today I went to CVS to pick up a prescription and my co-pay is 10 bucks.
I wasn't thinking about it until I was in line and saw the paypass logo and I thought "Why not?".. lol
So I got my meds and tried using it and Voila it worked!
It was kinda cool and funny cause the lady at the register said "Oh my God! That's so cool! This is the first time I have ever seen someone pay with a phone" then the lady behind me was amazed too and the guy behind her.. lol
Needless to say I never had so much fun picking up a prescription
Being rooted isn't an issue for it to not to work.
I just hope you don't have a damaged NFC chip..

Damm...Im trading google wallet for Wifi Tether.....I prefer the tether!!! Screw Wallet if wont work..but I hope It works later.
im 1 for 5 on useing google wallet.. really feel stupid when im trying to tap my phone on the pay pass thing and nothing happens then i have to pull out cash or my card... pisses me off.. was able to use it once at mcdonalds
Do you have to update your whole rom to get wallet working or can I just pull the .apk out of it and load it to my current rom?
Edit - I see in another thread the fix isn't simply app based so this wouldn't work.
Make sure your NFC is enabled in settings. Also the terminal at the store must have the pay pass logo on it. There are stores near me that are the exact same stores but some have it and some do not. Also I always log into my wallet while in line then tap. You have to hold it there for like 2 - 3 seconds.

I have that issue too. Wallet has stopped. Nothing about secure element though. Has anybody elses prompt for root? Mine didn't, but still says unsupported.

I've only tried it once, at a Walgreen's, and it didn't work... made me
Luckyly I tried today and Worked!!!
Worked fine at Hess today. After doing the upgrade I still go the "unsupported" message, so I did the build.prop trick to get rid of the message, did a "reset google wallet", force stopped the app and cleared data, and when I started it again it worked.
