Nice. Thanks!
So glad the 'roaming' sound effect tells me when my Verizon G3 with verizon sim is on verizon wireless.

if you are constantly 'roaming' and all your calls and data happen when 'roaming' they can terminate your service....they wont be upset, but you will be some people do it on purpose so VZW cancels their contract

Activating new phone online?

I couldn't activate my phone earlier online so I had to call Sprint. Online, the system wanted to force me to change plans. Now, I am trying to activate my wife's phone and Sprint customer care is closed for the evening. I am having the same problem trying to activate her phone online.
Has anyone else experienced this and gotten around it?
I got the same thing, had to do it over webchat. took about 10 minutes.

just call sprint
they did it without me even giving them any info
I went through this twice in the past two days. After speaking with Sprint reps, they assured me that the reason was that I got my EVO 4G back when the "premium data" charge was only for WiMAX devices, and now the premium data charge applies to all smartphones. If you select the plan identical to the one you already have, nothing on your account changes.
Me said:
So I'm sure you saw my query description. I'm just curious why activating the new EVO requires changing the plan. The 450 minute plan, other than being worded differently, seems identical to the plan I currently have.

I understand that you wish to activate a phone.
Let me check.
I understand that you are getting the error to change the plan while activating it online, it is only because the plan code differs, it does not mean that your plan will change.

The next day, when I wanted to switch back to my EVO 4G (because, until I'm fully rooted [i.e. S-OFF] and LTE is available, I still occasionally want WiMAX and I'll be switching between them), I had this conversation:

I expect to change between my EVO 4G and my EVO 4G LTE frequently until LTE is available in my area - if I cannot do this swap on my own, this will be a HUGE hassle.

You have got the notification plan change due to Premium data.
You have the same plan but your new phone is required the $10.00 premium data.

[Q] How do I get out of sprint contract- Want LG Galaxy Nexus 4

I need help!
I want to the LG Galaxy Nexus 4, problem is I have a fully rooted (w/ s-off) EVO4GLTE. My wife has one too (unrooted), hers being the main line. Is there a way to get out of my contract with minimal to no cost?
Also,
Would I lose my # if I could...?
and
Would I lose the phone as well or would I keep it?
Any advice on how to go about pulling his off...I'm all ears!
Force roam. Watch porn for rest of your billing cycle. Receive the letter of doom. Enjoy your nexus 4.

Use roam control set to roam only http://www.roamctrl.com/ or change your PRL so you are roaming on Verizon all the time
Will doing this really cause them to cancel your contract? What does the porn have to do with it?

watching porn meaning using a lot of data and yes if you have excessive roaming they will cancel you
So just pay the 4 bucks for the use of that app and use your phone that way? I don't make any phone calls really, only text and web, will that matter? I kind of wanna get the s3 on Verizon...

you will be most likely roaming on Verizon and it's the data they are concerned with not the calls

Won't there be some outstanding obligation to pay the bill for that data? I know we have unlimited texting but when I text to Canada from the US, I get billed per text. Seems like roaming data usage would incur similar additional fees.
Oh, and as far as using the data, I'd go with a torrent downloader and pull about 10 "bluray movie size" files. down. That would probably be worth kicking you.

[Q] Droid DNA LTE on AT&T

I am aware that they are not compatible but I have a question about the bands. So AT&T and Verizon use the same 700MHz but the bands are different. Verizon uses Band 13 and AT&T uses Band 4 and 17. Are the bands strictly hardware only? Or can you add a mod where it can pickup AT&T LTE?

I grabbed that fast! (;
When I pop in the sim from my One X into the DNA the data icon constantly cycles between H+, H, and 3G. I've added an AT&T APN but it's still doing the same thing. Am I missing something?

Thanks for the tip, I had sent an eBay seller an offer of $700 last night. Luckily he didn't accept it and countered back at 730. Now I scooped it up for 600 from Amazn!
Any updates?

Not to rehash an old thread (well I did mean to)...but any updates on how this is working out on AT&T? I had a Nexus 4 running on the network here in Charlotte and wasn't too pleased with the speeds I was getting. Ran back to my One X real quick. But I'm ready to grab one of these I think.
