Be patient
The update servers are being hammered with update requests. It is slowing everything down. Be patients
What, wait what?
While this is all good and fine. Wouldn't using someone else's phone without their permission be wrong? It will use data from the iPhone that located the missing device and the iPhone will connect to the missing item via bluetooth without that iPhone owners permission. Doesn't that go against one of apples main ethos? Privacy??
Won't last long
Anyone want to bet Apple is going to swoop in with a army of lawyer and claim theft of IP or copywriter infringement?
Well, how about that
I can't be the only one that saw this coming.
Good luck
Yeah, Good luck California. Apparently 49 other states, T-Mobile, Sprint, SoftBank, Deutsche Telekom, FCC, SEC, DOJ and God knows whatever regulatory commissions I missed think otherwise. Anyway isn't Covid 19 more important then this????
Wow
I knew this was coming, but I thought it was a April Fools prank at first. I know the merger was coming. I just didn't expect it to be announced on April 1st. But I am glad to know that sad, sad, sad excuse for a carrier is going away.
No surprise
This comes as no surprise. AT&T did this back when 4G became a hot word. They had 4G LTE phones which were on LTE and 4G phones that ran on HSPA+.
Good
About time a carrier announced such a offer. Won't take long for other carriers to fall in behind.
Whoa, WAIT!
Has he seen the damage done by Michael? Or has he been parking his ass in DC and imagining how easy it would be to restore service? I have seen it, It is going to take a spell! Hell Tyndall Air Force Base isn't even open for people to start working at the base and they have the whole entire force of the USAF behind them. The ****ing FCC needs to knock there **** off! It takes time to ...
So what?
You risk that with every merger. That's why you have stipulations that must be followed.
What about the Prepaid divisions?
what is going to happen to the prepaid divisions of Sprint (Boost mobile, Virgin mobile) after the merger?
RT Redux?
Sounds like Windows RT with a different name.
One step to solve this issue.
There is one thing EVERY iDevice owner should have.
Two words
OTTERBOX DEFENDER!!!
Why? iPhones, iPads & iPods are not cheap devices. A OtterBox is a tough case to protect what has become a popular albeit delicate piece of computing hardware.
In other words
In other words we screwed up and now we are backing out of the mobile arena.
Why?
It is a feature phone. Why does it need a quad core CPU and a gig of ram?
An other one?
Why don't they all just get together and form one uniform payment system instead of having as many as we do.
Re: Not a upgrade
I have the original ZMAX and it is a good midrange phone. But what gets me is that it is the same phone, except the screen is smaller, Battery is smaller, it comes with Android 5.1 and it is on AT&T and Tracfone. Why isbt goibg to be on MetroPCS? Doesnt make sense not have the successor on the same carrier the original came out on.
There is no point to buying the successor. I have mine carrier unlocked, ...
Not a upgrade
Sounds like more of a downgrade the a upgrade. Smaller screen and the rest of the specs are the same.
Awful Specs
While I am aware that you could most likely pound a nail into a 2X4 with this phone. Don't expect great performance. It is has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 210. It's specs for ruggedness are great. But I would look somewhere else if you want decent performance.
What Monopoly!?!?!
Google is NOT Microsoft! You also have Apple (Which is a monolith unto it's self), BlackBerry (Who was the king of Smartphones at one point), Microsoft who is King of the Desktop's. The EU needs to worry about there internal issues, like fixing Greece. Which is more important then a damned OS.
Android 5.0.2 is available for first Gen Moto G
While the official Android 5 (Lollipop) ROM is going through soak tests, albeit not to successfully, there are several custom Lollipop ROMS are available. The best of the crop is "Candy5" available at

It is based mainly on Cyanogenmod 12 and a few others. it is the most feature complete Lollipop rom available.
You also have the official Cyanogenmod 12 rom'

It is a bit rough around the edges, but still functional.
Both the roms requires the phone to have a unlocked ...
Difference between 1st and 2nd Generation Moto G
I don't really see any compelling reason to upgrade to a 2nd gen Moto G. CPU is pretty much the same, 3MP more on main camera isn't compelling enough, Storage space is the same and the only thing that I could appreciate more is the ability to use a SD Card.
If Lenovo continues the the Moto X and G line I hope the next version has more features to compel me to upgrade. If not. Then I don't ...
Re: So obvious...
I will be utterly shocked and surprised if any 3 letter agency approves this merger.
First Smart thing in a while
First smart thing Sprint has done in a long while. That and I think they are preparing when the FCC, FTC, DOJ, SEC and a few other agencies deny the T-Mobile merger.
Don't see this happening
I don't see this going through for a few reasons.
1. The oversight agencies of this government don't want to risk losing competitiveness. By Sprint buying T-Mobile they will also acquire MetroPCS. So in one action they would remove two Carriers. T-Mobile being a actual carrier and MetroPCS being a MVNO owned by T-Mobile. Removing 2 competitors would limit customer options.
2. I suspect that Verizon and AT&T will start lawsuits about how this could impact customer choice.
3. Sprint is only ...

Even though iDEN is gone... on Sprint, it makes a decent 2 way
Even though iDEN is gone on the Sprint network, this phone makes a decent 2 way walkie talkie. Off network direct connect thankfully doesn't require a cellular connection. At least it isn't a total waste of money.
Going in the right direction
I like what I am seeing so far. Loosening the reigns a bit is not a bad thing. Allowing more hardware options will attract more hardware manufacturers and allow the price point to be lower allowing Windows Phone to compete more readily with Android.
Now the question that begs to be asked. Will it work? Will it attract more manufacturers? Time will tell.
Re: Those speeds tho
I guarantee those speeds will go down when more people start using LTE with T-Mobile and more MetroPCS user start getting T-Mobile compatible phones. If T-Mobile can keep the speeds up, then and only then will they earn those braggings rights.
Time will tell.
Kiss my ass!
I understand the need to make money to keep FB up and running. However they do have their regular Ads. So FB can kiss my ass on the video ads!
Re: Hmmm
128-bit is not coming anytime soon.
Currently the main advantage.to 64-bit processors is the elimination of the 4GB Barrier. On PC's that is working great. However on smartphones we are just now coming close to that with the just announced. Samsung Galaxy J which has 3GB of ram and talks of the S5 and Note 4 having 4GB of ram.
64-bit will allow up to 16 exabyte which translates to 16 Billion Gigabytes.
and also all high end Android. smartphones use 32-bit ...
Leave it to political squabbling
Leave it to political squabbling to delay FCC approval.
Re: I think
The only reason a phone works like crap on an other network is simple. Frequency, if you have a TMobile Galaxy S2, 3, 4 on AT&T you aren't going to use the full potential of that phone. TMobile HSPA+, HSPDA, HSDPA and LTE run on different frequencies then AT&T. And the same is somewhat true of VZW and Sprint.
I'll stick with Beautiful Widgets and Weatherbug
I think I will stick with Beautiful Widgets and Weather bug. I get the same features and more. While I am sure people who are use to Yahoo will like it, I personally find it limiting. There better applications out there for free that do more.
Re: Too little too latr
I agree as well. The more choices people have the better the field may be.
As of right this moment the only Mobile OS's that seem to have everyone's attention is Android and iOS, however you have Windows Phone, QNX bases Blackberry OS 10, Firefox OS, Tinzen (which is making serious waves in South Korea) and Ubuntu OS which is making slow progress.
There are choices you just need to dig. But I agree with having more choices then just two. ...
Re: Too little too latr
Yes, the new Blackberries to have some sweet hardware, hand down. But just because you have the better hardware doesn't mean you are going to use it well. Agreed.
Profitability with BB has been based on its uniqueness and its ability to do what other platforms can not. The ONLY thing that Blackberry can do natively that other can is use BES and BBM. Since then Android, iPhone, Windows Phone have gained dominance over businesses when it comes to corporate ...
Re: Too little too latr
However, unlike Windows Phone , Android is a proven platform that is insanely popular. While Android may not be the save all OS, it sure as hell seems to be at this juncture. And on top of it it is IMHO better then WP7 & 8.
Re: Too little too latr
No, you are correct about Blackberry pulling out of this hole they put themselves in. However for them to survive they will need to shine better then Samsung, HTC, Motorola, LG, Sony and even ZTE and Huawei. Can they do it, I believe they can. But they will need to devote every ounce of energy and creativeness to do such that.
Re: Too little too latr
HMCS is Her Majesty's Canadian Ship. I said that because Blackberry is a Canadian company.
Too little too latr
As much as I hate to admit it, Blackberry lost its foot hold on the market by staying stagnant, when iPhone and Android landed they stayed complacent by staying with their Java based OS on very under powered hardware. And in the time it took for them to bring out modern looking smart phones, you have had the rise of Android as the dominant OS (not looking for a Android vs iPhone vs Windows Phone vs whatever else contest), ...
