The Truth
All is correct above, but the truth is whether you want a representative or not.
Best buy will waive a mail in rebates but are not in business to help you much past that. If you have enough time to invest in finding solutions to your own problems yourself it's probably worth saving money up front.
Sprint stores are more business oriented in meaning that your chances of finding someone who will assist you with issues down the road are much ...
Modulation
Sprint is combining 800/900/1900 Mhz
BB OS 6 on 9650
Has anyone put this on their too?
Like some changes in the OS, but battery life seems diminished. Anyone have this? -Drake
Curve 2
Any word on reviews on the Sprint Curve 2? I have 8330 and love it for the most part! How is the optical sensor?
Re: Exclaim Speaker Problem?
When I was a tech, had a simular problem with the Rant. The mic goes bad and need replacement. But last I checked Samsung does not supply just a single microphone, so the front side board may have to be replaced by a seasoned tech. This is covered for no charge with TEP, ESRP or manufacture warrenty (which you should still have).
Re: Hmmmmm...
Haha nice, First one went good, second, even better!
They are finishing up the rest of the interviews today and will let me know when they have a result. Alcohol will be implemented at that point! :lol:
Verizon Wireless Interview
I have a interview with a manager at a corporate store tomorrow, what would be some good topics to touch on in the meeting? I have been in cellular sales and repairs for the last 4 years for indirect Sprint stores. Would Kiosk or Store be better?
Re: Sprint better than At&t yes or no?
This is very accurate

Re: AirRave?
Awesome, thanks!
Don't know why that ever crossed my mind.
Should ESN checking really be needed?
Re: AirRave?
"Where" is the key word in my question. My parents need one and have not been able to find one in two months. Kinda need it.
Thanks Sprint2008, you caught it.
AirRave?
Where the heck are these?
Re: I Miss the Old School Sanyo's
MM5600 best Sanyo phone of it's time... Renegade V950 w/o DC is the best flip phone of all time!
Correction
Of course no official post from Sprint, but I've always been able to trust phonearena.

Which shows both V-dub and Sprint to get it, do me a favor and choose the most reliable 3G Network. Plus we'll unlock the sim card capabilities if you go overseas.
Re: PAM and Everything Data Plans
Do you know if you could PM me the ensemble codes?
Re: PAM and Everything Data Plans
What about the $40 dollar Blackberry pack? That includes PAM, but can it be attached to the Simply everything or Everything data? I don't think so.
I've had to split phones up with the talk plans then add pro packs and PAMADDON. Silly.
PAM and Everything Data Plans
Has anyone found a good way of combining these plans?
Re: Touch pro2 Pricing??
The Sanyo MM9000 was $349.99 at launch
Re: Not receiving all picture/text messages from friends
Now when you say Sprint, is it Nextel or Sprint?
If Nextel, may need to have S/N refreshed through tech support, or replace Sim card.
If Sprint, call tech support to refresh device to network.
I have heard that Verizon has issues sending to both Sprint or Nextel, and it's usually only Verizon that I've seen the issue with Sprint phones. I've never have had the issue myself, and it's weird whenever I hear it.
It could be a signal issue only if ...
Re: Palm Pre vrs Iphone 3gs
T-mobil has Android
Thanks
I'm not the only good guy here though, Yean, Sprint2008, and Mobil-Trojan have done more help than me.
Re: Um, wtf Phonescoop.
I kinda have been interested to start seeing aircards on phonescoop, I know they're not phones, but it would be nice to find phonescoop reviews for them on here.
You guys are jokes
Most repair centers cover the 1 year manufacture warranty now.
That aside, I don't understand how both phones are dialing with keypad locks. I can tell you it's not the phone if both are doing that. If you have a lock on both keypads, make sure the lock is on before you put it somewhere where buttons are more than likely to be pressed (pocket). On a very rare occasion, the software will dial numbers while keypad is locked, ...
Re: iPhone to Sprint, Never?
Yeah you guys are right :lol: Google, Comcast and Sprint are all idiots when it comes to investing $$. Just hold on to your skirts when the network is launched, partnerships will be made. 8)
Re: iPhone to Sprint, Never?
Billions of dollars invested to WiMax
Re: so...
We did about 30 new at my store, my company did over 700 new activations with this phone today.

3rd quarter is June-September.
This is the only site I've found that is usually right about these things.

You'd be welcome with 3x the 3G network, but also check out www.sprint.com/coverage to better help you decision. Thanks, -Drake
Re: no you
Listen, I agree with you, but this is a phone forum. You have to expect good and bad. This guy actually posted a relivant link from a 3rd party site. Yes it's negative, but it's also informative. I know you're still somewhat new to this forum, but trust me, there have been much worse post here.
Now I don't care for boygenius much, but I have a Pre and I don't really care for it much. I am going ...
Re: call tones
Last I knew, you can have different ones play at different time slots. ex one play from 12:01 to 8am, another from 8am-4pm .....
Re: rebate fraud
I'm sorry but this is ridiculous, you waited over a year to deal with the issue? I understand your frustration, you kinda have to take some of the blame on yourself too (I mean that in the most logical way possible) If I mailed in a rebate for Radioshack and in 2011 called in to ask why I never received it back, I'd consider it my fault for not looking in to it earlier. That's just how mail ...
Re: Well...
Listen, Wireless Giant does not own all 3rd party Sprint stores. I use to open Kiosk for them called MyMobil, they shafted me $2k. But I work for another one just down the road and I can say that I like it so much, I might just stay here for a few more years.
P.S. You are dumb to work for a store that long with shotty pay. Just as a heads up states have programs to go after employers ...
Heat Sensitive? Really
Why would Palm use a heat sensitive touchscreen? What's wrong with touch flo other that if too much pressure is applied? Uh oh this might be a head ache when winter rolls around.
Re: EASY
Uh, there are a lot of very good 3rd party stores. Yes I have worked for some bad ones, but Sprint is recognizing those poor ones. I'm at a Exclusive Sprint sales and repair center and it's very very simular to a corporate store. We have the same titles, pay, and it's a whole lot more flexable than working directly for Sprint. I don't have as many benefits for friends and family, but I still help them in my ...
Re: Question about Rant and Lotus help would be gratly appreciated!
There is an ebay ap for both for $5 a month, makes pages load much much faster, would recommend it if you use it a lot.
The Lotus can have the "one click" disabled
In my opinion, I almost despise the Rant, they're giving it out free on line right now probably to compete with some other promotion for another carrier.
I've repaired 10 to 1 Rants to Lotus. Samsung always have more software defects then any other phone manufacture (excluding ...
Re: How do you set the HTC Diamond settings for Voice playback!!!
What are you referring to when you say "voice playback"
Re: 1.25 million customers with long-term contracts GONE!!
Good, I'm not the only one who noticed that :lol:
Re: In your opinion...
Sprint has had issues with merging with Nextel with the billing systems. But it's done now. Finally and reps are now being trained to understand both networks.
Sprint is cheaper, and has an impressive lineup of handsets to fit most needs.
Check you coverage at www.sprint.com/coverage to make sure it works for you, this site will allow you to check signal down to your very street!
Re: Best Sprint Device...
What do you want in a phone? I've used about twenty different handsets in the last year and I can tell you my Motorola V950 (Renegade) is the best phone I've ever used! It's tough, fast and has the best signal on any handset I've used thusfar.
The Centro and Curve are good handsets, but each phone has it's own uniquness to it, and it depends on what you want/use the most.
A few quick things to think about are;
Messaging - ...
Re: AT&T or Sprint???
In my area (Mid-Michigan), I have not had a problem with Sprint's internet other than an occasional outage at 3am while the system was being updated (happened twice in the last 4 years)
No one can tell you off the top of the head what carrier is best for anyone, the best tool that we have to offer for that is www.sprint.com/coverage.
Sprint's handset lineup can offer pretty much anything you want to do, with the lowest cost per ...
Re: LG LOTUS HELP! PLEASE!
I haven't dealt with that issue yet, LGs can get weird when booting with a memory card, try to take that out. I strongly reccomend taking it to a Repair Center if it stays like that. They will either try to reload the software or replace the unit. Unfortually all the info on your phone may be gone if it is unable to power up.
