Will this work for MNVO phones that operate on verizon network such as pageplus or straighttalk?
LG updates
Any updates for the LG G5?
Nokia 3310
Used the original one many years ago, however I though the 2G network on ATT was shut off, since these don't have 3G or greater, they are obsolete already?
Android Flip Phone
This needs to be brought to the US, there are a lot of folks that like the flip phone, would give the functionality with the dial buttons for those that don't like a standard touch screen, would have the new LTE technology and still have the basic touchscreen for certain things. This would be appealing to the senior crowd, me included.
Re: this is just attention getting
You must live in the big city, in our area it's all roaming for both.
Idaho & Montana
Neither T-Mobile nor Sprint are any good in Idaho and Montana, at Best a little coverage around a couple major cities in ID, rest is roaming at basically 1x if any coverage at all. For the Present Verizon has the best coverage in these states hands down.
Re: Wow
Yep, the costs were killing me, I dumped verizon and went prepaid with PagePlus, using the same network with no contracts and less than half the bill, it works for me.
Update existing LG Phones?
So will this update be available for download to existing new LG phones, or just phones being offered? I have a new LG smartphone running kitkat 4.4.2. :roll:
Re: Already available
So what network does it run on?
911 button
I could forsee numerous false 911 calls with that large button so easy to hit. :cry:
Re: LTE???
But if you have a LTE capable device, could you still use it and just not have LTE service?
Go Smart Coverage
Nice to have cheap plans however T-mobiles coverage especially in the northwest sucks, and no roaming on prepaid, so a lot of dead spots. :x
What is NFC?
Is this the new system that makes better use of battery so they last longer?
Re: What a JOKE!
Here lately ours has been bouncing constantly from 3/G-4/G to 1x, no consistancy in signal at all! It started out real good and went downhill.
Sunset 2G
I find it ironic that AT&T wants to sunset 2G to move people to 3G or 4G, neither of which we have in North Idaho, 2G or Edge is as good as it gets, we can't upgrade to something we don't have! :roll:
Expansion
The Spokane CDA area has some LTE Coverage as Well as Boise, any idea when coverage will expand further for Idaho and Montana?
Re: I Just Checked the at&t website
Well on a basic flipphone it shows E, not 3G, and not running data.
Re: Upgrade towers
850 but only running edge, no 3G north of Hayden, Rathdrum and points north don't have it.
Re: Upgrade towers
It all starts somewhere, they have towers here in existance with outdated equipment, just need to upgrade, not put in new ones. Its a losing battle here with signal issues, outdated service, and no hope in sight.
Re: Upgrade towers
Those that have 3G or 4G phones can't even use them on anything but EDGE in North Idaho since they haven't even got past EDGE service in many areas, come on at least give them 3G, they are so far behind every one else it's pitiful. Can you hear me now? NO!
Re: Upgrade towers
Where my Son lives there is no 3G service, every device only can use Edge service at a maxximum, yet on either a few miles away is 3G, AT&T service is horrible here, we abandoned ship for verizon at my job because of it.
Re: Upgrade towers
They still need to upgrade service, forget buying other companies, upgrade towers that have ONLY edge service to at least 3G!
Upgrade towers
There are areas that do not even have 3G, let alone 4G. People are forced to run on 2G Edge service, hope they get upgraded towers or bye bye service. North Idaho!
Re: Good, but we need cheaper plans too
When are the shared family data plans coming out, it may be a better option than separate plans for each line.
Re: Geezus
North Idaho
New Plan Coverage
Even with all the new plans and devices, their coverage area is poor, and GSM signal has been severely degraded in a lot of areas, no reception, dropped or missed calls, and their cohort AT&T who is trying to buy them out isn't any better, wake up people!
Re: Here is the tricky part.
Wonder if they will allow us to use phones we already have, such as the ENV 2?
Re: Thank You Big Red
Be interesting to see if it's no roaming, or strictly their prepaid coverage which is a lot smaller area.
AT&T Service
AT&T Service is getting worse, signal levels have sunk, dropped calls and messages saying to try your call later are coming more prevailent, T-mobile is making a bad mistake, should upgrade their network and stay independant.
Re: Full list of new markets
Seems like they know the takeover by AT&T isn't going to happen, why dump a bunch of money into a network to disband it less than a year later. Hope it never happens!
Re: Full list of new markets
Having used both T-mobile and AT&T, I hope the merger falls flat on it's butt, and T-mobile reaps the benefit of the attempt.
Re: Full list of new markets
I am not buying this aquisition of T-mobile by AT&T, T-mobile is doing too much expansion and upgrading to just lose it all in a year or so and have to change to a completely different network.
