IPhone 4 making randon calls? Anyone else have this issue?
My Iphone 4 made a random call to someone. I picked the phone up and A call was in progress. It got my friends voicemail and the whole conversation was recorded. The phone was not in my pocket at all.
This is not an isolated incident. My phone called one of my friends. He picked up and heard my conversation. This seems to be happening to names/numbers on my recent calls list. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Is there ...
Re: Buy now or wait for IPhone 5? That is the question...
I have the ATT IPhone 3GS. I want to come back to VZW and upgrade. However, I don't want to make the awitch now and wish that I had waited.
Buy now or wait for IPhone 5? That is the question...
Any thoughts or inside info. would be greatly appreciated.
Verizon IPhone vs ATT IPhone
Is anyone a former ATT Iphone holder who switched to VZW? I would love a comparison. I was with VZW, went to ATT for the IPhone and am now thinking of switching back. Thanks!
Re: help me make a choice all info i appreciate
Hi London:
Reading your message reminds me of my situation early last month. I was in the same situation that you are now. My contract expired and I thought about getting the IPhone 3G or the BB Storm and staying with VZW. I went back and forth. I did a lot of research, mostly on this thread. I played with both at thier respective stores as well. I decided to leave VZW and buy the IPhone. I am VERY happy ...
Forwarding text messages???
Is there a way to forward a text message to other people? Please let me know. Thanks!
Opening pics on the phone?
Forgive me if this has been covered, but when a pic attachment is sent, is there a way to open the pic right there on the phone? I try to touch the link and log in, but the safari says "safari is unable to open". Thanks!
Best Screen Protector?
I have read about certain screen protectors for the phone. Does anyone out there have a good one? Is it anti-glare? Any suggestions would be very much appreciated! Thanks!
Dropped Calls?
I have heard a lot of complaints about dropped calls, even in a strong coverage area. Is this true? I am with Verizon Wireless and am thinking of switching to an IPhone with ATT. I have had a few isolated calls with VZW, but not many. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!
Re: text sounds
Can you put text alerts on vibrate?
Re: Activation Fee
Fine, if Apple doesn't want my business, then I will stay with Verizon and pay no "activation Fee". Case closed!
Re: Activation Fee
I would have to have the data package with the IPhone as well, so it's a wash. As a matter of fact, a RIMM Storm would be cheaper with Verizon than with ATT IPhone.
Re: Activation Fee
It is the principle of the 36 dollars!
Re: Activation Fee
You are right, nobody is forcing me to leave Verizon. So if ATT won't waive the fee, I will stay with Verizon and they will get my next two years of business. So if ATT wants to play hardball over 36 dollars, they lose out in the long run.
Re: Thinking about getting iphone, but (help)
Hi Colad:
I am also thinking of getting an IPhone as well. I have been a VZW customer for years and fell in love with the IPhone. If there are hidden costs, I want to know as well. If so, I will grit my teeth and get a Storm and stay with VZW.
Re: Activation Fee
Seriously though, why should I pay an extra fee to give another company my business? They are getting a two year contract from me. VZW is begging me to stay with them, so I should pay ATT for the privilege?
Re: Activation Fee
Another thing, if you spoke to me like that in person, I would kick your @ss all the way to China! Coward!
Re: Activation Fee
Hey DORKADORK:
I was aloyal VZW customer for a long time. If ATT wants my business, they should not sodomize me to get my business. 200 for a phone and a 2 year commitment should be enough to get my business!
Re: Omnia versus Dare versus Storm
I am leaning twords the IPhone. I played with one at an ATT store and loved it. I just hope that the service in the Metro NJ/NY area is as good as advertised.
Re: Omnia versus Dare versus Storm
I do use my phone for web browsing.
Re: Storm, IPhone 3G or Omnia, that is the question.......
Thank you Playboy, you have been very helpful! My concern is ATT 3G and voice coverage being adequate. VZW has been great. I am reluctant to switch.
Re: As a music and video player
One more thing: I was going to get an IPhone, but I am scared to leave VZW for ATT
Re: As a music and video player
How is the device as a music player? Good stereo sound with headphones? are they included? I will use a bluetooth earpiece to talk on the phone and a wired set of stereo phones for music.
As a music and video player
How good is the music and video player? Maybe not top notch IPhone, but comparable? Also, can I move files easily from Limewire? or would you suggest another source? Thanks in advance!
Re: Omnia versus Dare versus Storm
I meant on the Storm
Re: Omnia versus Dare versus Storm
can I download music and movies from Limewire? How good is the music player?
Re: Storm, IPhone 3G or Omnia, that is the question.......
Playboy, I don't have to have the newest gadget. With VZW, I replaced my phone every 2 years.
Re: Storm, IPhone 3G or Omnia, that is the question.......
I did try the Storm on two different occasions. I didn't like the push button keypad. I prefer the touch. The browser on the Storm was excellent, but the IPhone browser is tops by far. I don't own an IPod, so by getting the IPhone, that will take care of that. The Storm is a nice phone on the best network, but the IPhone is in a class by itself.
Re: Storm, IPhone 3G or Omnia, that is the question.......
I thought that the Storm had a slightly bigger screen. The more that I think about it, the more I am thinking IPhone.
Re: Storm, IPhone 3G or Omnia, that is the question.......
My contract expires on Dec 20th. I can leave VZW and not pay the fee. I have been told that with the new 3G network, ATT is a close 2nd and works fine in the NY/NJ metro area.
Activation Fee
Has anyone here had any luck waiving the activation fee? I don't want to pay a company to give them my business. Thanks!
Activation Fee?
How much is the activation fee? Can that be talked out of?
Re: Storm, IPhone 3G or Omnia, that is the question.......
Playboy, you are correct, I did nean Pt. Pleasant, NJ. I went to college in Wva and don't plan on going back anytime soon. LOL
I will be using the phone for web browsing and videos while riding on the train or killing time. I will not use it for business at all. The RIMM Storm screen was best between the two. It is like HD on a phone. That said, the IPhone 3G has a nice video ...
Re: Storm, IPhone 3G or Omnia, that is the question.......
Thank you Verseed, that is very important! Overall, how do you like your IPhone? I am hesitant to leave VZW, but I fell in love yesterday. :)
Storm, IPhone 3G or Omnia, that is the question.......
Ok People, I played with an IPhone 3G at the ATT store in New Brunswick, NJ for about an hour. I must say that I was VERY impressed. The internet browser is second to none! The call quality was crystal clear. I do understand that I was in the store and not out on the dock at the summer home in Pt. Pleasant. The camera doesn't have a flash, but that is minor. The touch screen is ...

Re: YouTube playback
I played NFL highlights to the Chargers-Steelers game via Youtube on the Storm and the video was not choppy at all.
Re: This or the IPhone?
I just love the enthusiasum of this thread that I have started.:D
I just got back from the VZW store in North Brunswick and again played with the storm. I watched a movie trailer and I must say that the video kicks A**! It is like HD on a phone. I would prefer the touch keyboard, but the push is not all that bad. The speed of the internet browser is MUCH faster than my Motorola Q. ...
Re: stylus / keyboard
Thanks Rich.
The ultimate question is: The Omnia or Storm? Which would you choose? Just in case you are wondering, I will use the phone for (besides as a phone of course):
1. Web surfing
2. Video Player
3. Music player
4. Text Messaging
Also, I will not be using the phone for business reasons, only personal use.
Thanks Again!
