Re: Let this me a lesson to you
Sprint's service has been excellent. As far as my shipment, everyone makes mistakes. The key is how do you handle the mistake and they took care of it. All you Sprint haters need to stop hating.
Re: Where is my friggin phone?
My review is coming soon. I need like 72 hours after a new phone but it will be good. Thanks
Re: Buy the Tour or wait?
This is a no brainer people. What individual that reads this website actually keeps their cell phone more than a year or so anyway. Buy the Tour now. It will probably be at least 8-12 months before a WIFI Sprint or Verizon version comes out. Upgrade again then. I will.
Re: Where is my friggin phone?
Got it! Stalked my UPS guy and had it in my hand at 10 AM. Merry Christmas to me. Thanks Sprint. My apologies for my frustration which was justified but we all make mistakes. Thanks for coming through! Home Run!
Re: Sprint finally admits to "System Issue"
Got the same email yesterday afternoon. Check your order status. Sprint is starting to come through. My order is due to arrive today. Updated last night around 10:30 PM. Good Luck.
Re: Where is my friggin phone?
Praise the Lord! I just checked my order and my Tour is on the way for delivery for Friday! Time will tell but I would love to eat my words when this phone shows up tomorrow.
Re: I'm angry...
You're angry? Thinking about canceling my entire company account! Sprint has great rates but just way too much waiting. :x
Re: how many sprint employees
You are SO lucky. I order mine Sunday at 7:01 AM. Mine is back ordered. I should have paid with a credit card. :cry:
Re: DSJ... what did sprint say?
They told me that they accidentally canceled my order than put it back in. WHATEVER! I realized that I charged this to my account and I bet they went with CASH sales first since there is a limited amount. They have to wait 30 days to get their money from us so ah guess what? We're on back order. Your order too huh? I wish somebody out there that is not lying prove I am wrong. Anyway, ...
Re: Sprint did their customers a favor
A Favor? I hear what your saying and fundamentally we agree and I also agree that making employees wait is a gracious gesture perhpas BUT there is NO EXCUSE for sending phones to someone that ordered them AFTER someone else. I ordered at 7:01 AM Sunday there is no way that many people beat my order. There are already people who have their phone that ordered Monday and Tuesday also. Sprint admitted to canceling my order and ...
Re: Where is my friggin phone?
I totally agree. Just got off the phone and they said they have no explanation why some have received their phones that ordered after I did but at this point they have no more Tours and Monday is the first day that a another shipment even arrives. We are all probably looking at midweek next week at the soonest for our deliveries. This is totally unfair and poor management. Just when I was speaking up for this ...
Re: Where is my friggin phone?
Yea, I called them again this morning and they said I have to be patient and that is it "luck" that others have received theirs and I am still waiting. I ordered the Tour Sunday morning at 7:05 AM along with some other unrelated accessories. I have received all my accessories on Tuesday but the phone still says backordered!
I had to be one of the first on the planet to order this phone and as of Thursday ...
Where is my friggin phone?
I ordered my Sprint Tour Sunday morning through Telesales and it is still on backorder status. What gives? I wonder can if I can cancel my order and just buy it in the Sprint store? I am so disappointed.
Re: Why no WIFI on the BB Tour? :? Anyone know if the Bold will come to Sprint anytime soon?
Hi Threeglude, I have to agree that is was a poor move for both Sprint and Verizon to release this Tour without WIFI. Most likely, they wanted to capitalize on getting this phone out asap rather than make sure it had that feature. At this point I just want my Sprint BB Tour. I ordered it on Sunday morning at 7:30 and as of today, Wednesday July 15th it still has not shipped yet and the website ...
Re: its on SPRINT.com
Same here. Maybe I was the first. Did it at 7:05. My wife thinks I am a nut.
Blackberry Bold for Sprint
Rumor has it that Sprint has the Bold on the way. It was originally announced in January that is would be first quarter. Obviously, we are in the second quarter and the hearsay is it may be released this summer.
Does anybody know anything about concrete release dates?
Re: Software updates over the air
Options, Advance options, Wireless update
Re: 4.5 os update mms help
I think that only applies to Sprint Blackberries receiving pictures MMS or E-mailed pictures because Sprint's picture mail on Blackberries still uses the Internet to look at pictures.
MMS finally here for Sprint
After downloading and installing operating system 4.5 MMS is finally here.
Pros:
MMS Finally!
Documents to Go
Clearer screen
Upgraded Music player-louder and has great EQ
Ability to hide pictures
Wireless software Update through Advanced Options although still prefer update through Desktop manager for back-up safety.
Cons:
No Default Preloaded pictures
No Blackberry Sample Video
This is a major operating system upgrade especially for Sprint users. Also, Blackberry Desktop manager version 4.7 is available for download.
Go for it!
Re: BB newbie
Yes, you can input notes, schedules, etc while talking. A Blackberry can do just about anything except scratch your back. I have been with 3 of the four major carriers; AT&T, Verizon and Sprint. All three have their advantages/disadvantages and you must make your decision based on where you will be located say 90% of your time especially if you travel out of the country. I do not leave the US and I have been a ...
Re: Auto Backlight Dimming
Make sure you have the backlight timeout set at the maximum of two minutes and your backlight brightness set at your favorite maximum. In addition to the other setting you already mentioned, that works for me.
Re: Sending Picture Mail with Sprint
Hi Phone Chick. Nice try, but when I tried it to a Verizon buddy it came back undeliverable.
Sprint really needs to work this out. It is my only real complaint with them and they seem to not give a crap about working it out.
Re: Can't Delete Pictures from Media Card on Sprint Curve
Weird man. I have the Sprint Curve. When I was using the Pearl, one day I just saw the delete button literally disappear when looking at the menu. It never came back. I have the Curve now and can only delete "pictures" when the device is connected to the computer, however videos delete fine from the card. Go figure? I have not encountered media not saving to the designated place.
Re: Sprint 8330 or Verizon 8330
This Sprint bashing is starting to get old. I was with Verizon since the Bell Atlantic Days but got tired of having to call up every month and get my blood pressure up to near stroke levels trying clear up a screwed up bill and then I was always starting over like I had never called the previous month on the next cycle! Now Verizon has good coverage but they also have quite a few drop zones too ...
Can't Delete Pictures from Media Card on Sprint Curve
Does anyone have this issue? I had it with the Pearl and now with the Curve. The Option to delete is missing when you are viewing pictures on the media card. What gives?
Re: Text messaging while in a call....
I am Sprint Customer. It's Funny. Sometimes I can respond to a text message that comes in while on a phone conversation and sometimes and I cannot. Weird. I cannot send one while talking though. Sucks.
Re: The brighter side.
I tried this and it didn't come close to working. Got an immediate X when I tried to send the message to a phone number. Bummer. MMS Please.
Re: MMS?......I've got it!!!!!!!
They should add MMS man and add it TODAY. Come on. Everyone has it except Sprint. By the way, although I am really not interested in leaving Sprint at this time, can I really get them to cancel my contract? How?
Re: MMS?
I totally agree. They should have MMS, but my point is Verizon isnt perfect either. TV isn't important to you but to the next person it might be. Anyway you look at it, it is a cool feature that Verizon doesn't offer on the Curve. I switched from Verizon to Sprint over three years ago because of constant billing issues. Sprint's billing has had fewer issues but sometimes the technical support/customer service has been very ...
Re: Absolutely horrendous voice dialing
In your menu, go to voice dialing and adjust your settings. I had a similar issue until I changed the sensitivity to -3 reject less, Name Playback Speed, 3 (Faster). Try that, it worked for me.
Re: MMS?
I am a longtime Sprint Customer and have stuck with them despite some pretty pathetic customer service "at times." My business uses both Sprint and Nextel phones. Your answer is logical except for one thing. Why can all the other carriers utilize MMS with Blackberry and Sprint can't? In other words, why wont Blackberry allow the service with Sprint but allow it with other carriers with Blackberries? Just because I am using my BB for ...
Re: MMS?
Switch to Verizon for what? So we can have MMS but loose TV? Be forced to use Verizon's navigator? Be nickled and dimed for every feature available that isn't crippled already? No thanks. We will stick with E-mailing pictures for now.
Sprint Curve is up and running
Got the Sprint Curve up today at my lumch break. Looks Slick! Although I enjoyed it since February.....Bye Bye Pearl. Pocket Express has replaced On Demand. They have added something call Facebook and more instant messaging software.
Re: First Sprint Curves have arrived!!
See, I am so excited I misspelled Sprint!
First Spint Curves have arrived!!
Got mine from the UPS guy a few minutes ago. Had to track him down a few blocks from my house so I could go ahead to work but I have the box in my hand!!!!
Re: Am I the only one Excited about my Sprint Curve?
I was worried that it would come next day (Saturday) to my job so I had it sent to my house. Now that its coming in Monday at my residence I need to be at work so I'm kinda thinking about maybe a half a day. Good Grief. I have a friend that got her Verizon Curve and other than taking over 24 hours to get her VZ Navigator working she loves it and is totally ...
Re: Am I the only one Excited about my Sprint Curve?
What is the REAL reason that Sprint disables MMS on some of their smart phones? I have never gotten an intelligent answer from Sprint.
Re: with no camera
Why would you want a phone like the Curve without a camera?
Am I the only one Excited about my Sprint Curve?
I am so anxious for my Sprint Curve Monday I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve. I'll probably be stalking the UPS guy tomorrow. Thinking about taking half a day at work. :-)
