Re: Verizon's new pricing plans
If you are still in your past capacity then I assume you know more then I do... but he seems to be asking if he can upgrade, move to a 2GB plan and not go share plan. He should beable to if he was already on a nationwide plan. Moves between nationwide plans seem to be allowed.
Sorry...
I was having a rough day but shouldnt have been so mean about it. Sorry.
Re: I'm sorry but...
How so? Because they retired a soon to be useless widget?
Re: But...
So what are you/they trying to hide? :P
Re: Verizon lost my returned phone
Im not sure if you have done this yet, but try calling and requesting to have them put in a 'Direct fulfillment refund request form'
Hope they find it!
Re: Verizon service in Puerto Rico
Most of Puerto Rico is included in the Nationwide and America’s Choice Coverage Areas. If you roam out of the Nationwide or America’s Choice coverage area, you will be charged $.69 per minute. Please use your device's banner as an indicator of your roaming status. Click here to view the approximate coverage areas.
Did you even bother to read the page? 8O
Re: Shared data plans
So top secret they have had it on their public website for weeks?
Verizonwireless.com/shareeverything
Its ok to admit you do not know what your talking about hobble.
Re: Calm Down Peeps
As was stated, the increase in arpu will come from increase in data useage across more devices. I have no inside knowledge on the new data plans but maybe its best to wait till they are announced before we throw VZW under the bus?
""I think revenue ARPU [average revenue per user] will continue to grow as we get into data share plans and people start to connect more devices [on the network]," he said, according to the ...
Calm Down Peeps
:lol: if you took the time to read the original press release you would understand that this was the CFO speaking to investors about where new income will be coming from. VZW will not be raising prices, but they will see increased ARPU from shared data plans and that consumers continue to use more and more data. The sky is not falling.
Re: Big Deal
All i can say is per the FCC it is not allowed. I flew Delta last month and didnt see anyone on their phones. I did see a few people useing an airline phone though. Maybe thats what you saw?
Re: Big Deal
http://www.fcc.gov/guides/wireless-devices-ai rplanes
"Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules prohibit the use of cellular phones using the 800 MHz frequency and other wireless devices on airborne aircraft. This ban was put in place because of potential interference to wireless networks on the ground."
Maybe check your facts before telling someone they are wrong? im not saying its not possible, just that its not allowed by law.
Re: Big Deal
haha no wonder AT&T has such poor service, they are shooting service 6 miles into the air. :)
Also i hope you were not on a public flight within the US because thats a big no no according to the FCC.
Re: Why has not anyone mentioned....
I would think that being in a relationship with a direct report is against company policy. Why not go in and talk to Bob? He is the manager of that location. Or do what Joppy said.
Re: bottom line
While not likely.. it is deff possible.. My best friend was a VZW cust that was sold to AT&T because of the FCC mandated divestings. There were maybe 20 (don't quote me, I don't remeber) rural VZW markets that vzw had to sell and just as many if not more alltel ones.
Re: bottom line
Wait till your market is divested and your sold to a reginal carrier.. :) what song will you be singinng after that? ;)
Re: Can I send back a different phone using the Replacement Verizon Wireless
That still may not work. When they are filling out the request for the FRU/CLNR it asks the rep what ESN they are returning. So if the ESN he returns does not match it could be an issue.
Re: Don't do it.
$200-$500 you wish. More like $650 or $750. (16G or 32G) The full retail price on the phone. They don't screw around when it comes to people trying to rip them off.
Droid X update to 2.3 (Ginerbread)
I didn't see this anywhere so I figured I would post it here.
http://support.vzw.com/system_upda te/droid_x.html
It started server push a few days ago and is avlb from the phone as of today.

Re: Sorry guys..
Like Carrier IQ?
Anyway, while I agree with you on some points. The people on this forum are on the top of the mobile world per say. A lot of people do utilize those apps, and the carriers get paid for including the apps.
The more they get paid, could mean lower subsidized prices. (I say could because I have no data to say that the carrier is not just pocketing the money)
I do think ...
Sorry guys..
Unless Sprint is dumb (unlikely), the carriers are covered under their T&Cs.
Here is the VZW part where its covered.
"My Wireless Device
Your wireless device must comply with Federal Communications Commission regulations, be certified for use on our network, and be compatible with your Service. Please be aware that we may change your wireless device's software, applications or programming remotely, without notice.

Re: att is behind on this LTE
AT&Ts HSPA+ is horrible as far as I have seen. Do you have any good data showing that it is even half the speeds that LTE is?
Re: New Data Package - Sorta
Yep yep.. that's why I said 'sorta' :)
Re: att is behind on this LTE
He he He... hehehheheh.. hahahhaha.. Don't spill that blue koolaid on your white shirt. :P
Thanks for giving me a good laugh HzD. Per AT&T they will have LTE is 15 Markets by the end of 2011. VZW will have LTE in 145 markets by the end of 2011. Last I looked, 145 is greater then 15; but I never was great at math.
New Data Package - Sorta
I have not seen anyone else mention this so I figured I would let people know that a new data package will be avlb tomorrow 5/26. This is for Basic Phones. (Aka Feature phones, dumb phones).
$10 a mth for 75MB of data
Mobile Email
VZ Navigator
Ringback Tones
A $21 value for $10 plus 3x more data as compaired to old packages. As before, Nav usage will not deduct from your data allowence.
Not as good as the old $15 ...
Re: If they get rid of unlimited data plans would you leave?
They already have stated they will be going to diff data pricing.
How much data do you truthfully use on an average month? What phone do you have?
Re: An Improvement?
Sorry Tx.
That's still what is says in our manual programming guide. You did note that on the bottom taps you need to press ABOVE the green line, right?
I probly won't have one in my hands for a few weeks.
Good luck!

Re: An Improvement?
The DROID X 2 by Motorola requires OTA Programming be performed. If an OTA has not been performed, user can bypass the Activation Screen by touching all four corners, corners need to be touched (going clockwise) starting Top-Left / Top-Right / Bottom-Right / Bottom Left, Touch right above green line for Bottom-Right / Bottom Left.
**Ensure user does not touch the grey parts of the screen.**
Looks like its about the same.. just that the bottom presses are right above ...
Re: To those who work in stores. . .
You are old epik. :) Someday ill find out what store your RSM at. :evil:
Re: 3G issue
Oh ya deff a negative cust experence. I would think though that if it was the same with the Thunderbolt we would have heard about it by now. Thundergate? :wink:
Re: 3G issue
Ya.. It has to do with the BSR (Better System Reselection) and the built in 2-3 min wait before the device rescans for another network/tower. Pain in the butt but I guess it is what it is right now. They say it is that way to preserve battery life. :paranoid:
Re: 3G issue
I'm pretty sure that there never was an issue going from 4G(LTE) to 3G (EVDO - Rev A). There is/was an issue going from 3G up to 4G with the USB Modems, not sure about the thunderbolt.
Re: 1x and 3G
Speaking of 'marketing'...
I spoke to someone that was 100% sure that I knew about 5G (and wouldn't tell him) and wanted to know why he couldn't get it. I tried explaining that 4G had 'just come out'. He called me a lier and said he saw 5G on a comercial with Ozzy in it. (Best Buy add - for their buyback program) :lol:
I tried to explain that it was a 'joke' to help people understand ...
Re: Don't do it man!
I'm waiting for the IPhone that runs 6Gs. I saw it on the best buy add, justin babyface was holding it!! OMgosh I can't wait! I heard from my sisters boyfriends hairdressers dogs pet turtle that it would be here 'soon'!!

Re: Currently AT&T 95.5 million, Duhhhh this includes their connected devices
Well they say it takes a big man to admit he is wrong.. apparently that's not him lol... I wouldn't be mean except he came here just to flame then got beat at his own game.
Re: Currently AT&T 95.5 million, VZW 94.1 million customers
IF its approved by the FCC/DoJ/powers that be.. Did you see how much the FCC put VZW through with the Alltel buyout?
Re: Currently AT&T 95.5 million, VZW 94.1 million customers
Oh I did miss that.. multi tasking FTL..
Re: Currently AT&T 95.5 million, VZW 94.1 million customers
Sorry I'm on my phone and its a little show responding to threads like this.. see my other response.
Re: Currently AT&T 95.5 million, VZW 94.1 million customers
I found it for you:
http://www.corp.att.com/emea/insights/p r/eng/q4_270111.html
[I]Best-Ever Subscriber Gain. AT&T posted a net gain in total wireless subscribers of 2.8 million, to reach 95.5 million in service, the best net gain in the company’s history. Full-year wireless net adds totaled 8.9 million (adjusted for mergers and acquisitons), the company’s best-ever annual total. Fourth-quarter net add growth reflects rapid adoption of smartphones, increases in prepaid subscribers, strength in the reseller channel and a record quarter in connected devices such as eReaders, security ...
