Re: Contract extension without new phone?
If she changed her actual rate plan then yes it renews the contract but the upgrade tenure doesnt reset so if she was eligible for upgrade then she still is and can still get the discounted price unless she switched to a value plan. As far a contesting it months later I can't say
Re: And of course T-Mobile can't just let us CHOOSE which apps to install
Theres a free feature that needs to be added to a line to use wifi calling w/o it counting against whenever minutes, but you have to ask
Re: 3G Refarming
I'll just be glad when its finfished and they've transitioned theyre customers to 3g phones I'm tired of hearing customers complain about their crappy lg gs170 flip phone they bought at walmart.
Re: TMO 4G
I've found t-mobile 3g service, but then I live in a metro area, but the refarming they're doing may help with 3g at least
Re: I hope it isn't a total POS
Read it after I posted, excellent review sounds like LG is stepping up their game.
Re: I hope it isn't a total POS
I hope it isnt either, because if its good, Ill upgrade and save $170 over the note 2 :D
Re: Really
True but if your on a value plan the down payment is only $250 and thats out the door w/o a MIR
Re: Really
Really, you sound suprised that T-Mobile has the most expensive version, Besides its if you take the Value plan which ends up being cheaper the discounted price doesnt apply
Re: why you scare me like that??
$399.99 must be the T-mobile price lol
Re: Protect the customers, more like protect its investment
200mb may be a lot for a BB but since this mainly affects new customers, whose buying a BB right now?
Plus having a 200mb plan used to disqualify you from your MIR and90% of the people I talk to that have 200mb data also have $15-$30 in overages
Re: Thinking about T-Mobile again
Well if you live in a highly populated are, their quality of the service is fine. I've had Tmo for 10 years and Ive had no problems with coverage, data speeds, or call quality
Re: Hey Eric
from the press release "The combined company, which will retain the T-Mobile name, will have the expanded scale, spectrum and financial resources to aggressively compete with the other national U.S. wireless carriers."

3, Crown Castle is owned by DT, TMO US is owned by DT. Whats so hard to figure out about that?
TMO, Crown and DT are all operated as SEPERATE companies that provide SEPERATE services.
Re: 3G Refarming
I wouldnt think so since 1900 is what they were running edge/2g on. now its 3g to improve serive and make room for lte next year. People will only need a new device if they're not using a 3g capable phone ( theyre still out there).
Re: Any disadvantage of value plans
Basically w/ value plans the only difference is since your rate plan is lower than the "classic" plan you can't get phone discounts at all so all of your phones will be full retail..that said w/ the value plan there is EIP which is basically interest free financing on phones so basically you make a down payment about what the normal discounted price is like for GS3 16gb of $279.99, then the remaining amount is broken up over ...
Re: Mytouch
my guess would be LG was cheaper than HTC and Huawei is cheaper than LG?
Well
Since the only main difference between the LG's and Huawei's is the New MyTuch will have a .4Ghz faster processor, they're probabaly just going to brush LG under the table
Re: Verizon's Arrogance Knows No Bounds
Plus as far as Big red sees it they're giving away more than what they're getting in spectrumand it helps the "little guy" with its LTE launch Gee Verizon sure is nice I bet they only agreed to this swap because they are just so nice
Not the first time
Not like this is the 1st time T-Mobiles charged more for a phone than competitiors..hell the Blackberry Bold 9900 was $100 more than AT&Ts and here we are 10 months later and its still $299.99
Re: This has been prophesied. so it is said, so it is done.

I'm pretty sure there will be no terminators in 3 years.

why not its 2012 and there are androids everywhere lol

T-Mo is skipping HSPA 84.
http://www.theverge.com/2012/2/28/2830143/t-m obile-usa-84mbps-lte
right but they're keeping hspa+42 for 1900 like Tofuchong said, so they can still use the tech to speed up their network and improve battery life for they're non LTE phones.. which is all of them at this point
Re: Promise......
well tmo's galaxy s2 will have had 4.0 for 10 days so the promise still stands
Re: No 64GB version?
you can only get 32 gb in the hard drive but it still will take micro SD cards up to 64 so you can still get 96 gb (minus OS and bloatware) which isn't too shabby
Re: How do you know when you are using 1900 HSPA+ ?
dabbler said:
how would I know if T-Mo really deployed it in my area or not?
Easy just buy an unlocked iphone and see if its 3g or EDGE :lol: short of that under netwrok settings there should be an option formobile network, you can check to see if that shows what band you're on
Re: How do you know when you are using 1900 HSPA+ ?
this may be a stupid question, but why would you need to know if your phone is connect to 1900 as opposed to 1700/2100 especially if you're using a Tmo phone? its going to be the same hspa+ speeds you had, the 1900 is more beneficial for Tmo customers who use iPhones since they'll be free from EDGE
Re: Bad timing?
plus with the s2 currently $230 at tmo and the s3 coming out @ $199 the price for the s2 will drop because there people who will want to save $$ and they'll get the s2,
same reason they roled out ICS to the sensation when they have the Amaze and the One S
Re: DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!!!
Plus quad band hspa+ sounds like a tmobile phone w/ at&t pushing their LTE network, I'd love for either Sony to come to tmo we havent had a water resistant phone since the DEFY
Re: Hope All Goes Well
Plus it'd help Tmo get a better footprint for their LTE
Re: Hope All Goes Well
Heh T-Metro...sounds good better than AT&T-Mobile
Re: This includes their 4G access?
Yes it includes 4g
Re: No TMobile people with insider info???
well with the sensation getting 4.0 this week the amaze getting 4.0 next week I would guess sometime in June shoudnt be any later than july
Re: So they're really. . .
srich27 said:
Likely with the merger mess behind them this will start to clear up a bit. It'll still take several months to a year for them to stop the bleeding though.
I agree, T-mobile seems to be trying toeitehr get new customers or winback old ones with LTE on 2013, 1900mhz 3g for current iPhones and the new marketing campaign thats basically says "Our 4g is faster and or bigger and cheaper than others"
Re: Still waiting ...
Thats the phone that turns into a 18-wheeler right?
Re: No surprise
Axekick said:
It was recently disclosed that T-Mobile was going to start requiring customers to pay their first months service upfront, then pay for their regular service one month prior to actually using it.
That alone wouldn't concern me but due to their failed attempt to sell to ATT and their fleeing customer base I suspected they were going to become a pre-paid service only.
:
actually a) its only NEW customrs and b) its not prepaid w/ prepaid u pay for your ...
Re: New S II owner...should I be upset?
Thats the name of the game w/ electronics, once you upgrade the new one comes out soon after, but the SII is awesome so dont be too bummed theres people signing up now getting the galaxy s4g or sensation not aware of the galaxy s 2 or the amaze or the One S, Plus LTE comes out next year so feel bad for the people who get the SIII and in 6 monthswill want the LTE version lol
Re: AMAZE VS ONE X ?
The difference is the Aamaze is T-mobile and the One X is AT&T
Re: Prepaid Vs. Postpaid Data
and for $60 yuou can bump your data to 2gb or do 5gb for $70 which is comparable to the value plans without having to worry about a contract
Re: R.I.P MyTouch 2009-2012
Well w/ the lg mytouch and mytouch q tmo transitioned the mytouch brand from top tier I.e htc mytouch 4g and mytouch 4g slide to more of an entry level/mid range phone and nothing says entry level/ mid range like huawei
Re: When are you going to Correct this Device's name ?
There's supposed to be a software update that reflects the new name I'm guessing that when the 'official" name changes
Why worry about the 5?
Doesn't matter when the iPhone 5 comes out because 1 month after it does Apple will announce the iPhone 5s which will be slightly better that the 5 but cost $100 more
