Re: Some FACTS for customers looking elsewhere (or AT&T Fanboys)
I have used 35Gigs a month or more since Sept 2011 with Verizon(Motorola Bionic). PDAnet app w/unlimited data. Never received a warning or any throttling of my speed. I used 70gigs last month 8) . No cable/internet bill. Computer connected to Flat screen, netflix/hulu, pix/video uploading to facebook and youtube.
If you have unlimited, you should be able to do whatever the hell you want as that was in the contract terms when you ...
Re: Seriously, who told Motorola that tgey could build smartphones?
Seriously, your actually bashing on Motorola cause of the windows based Moto Q series from 4 years ago!?!?! When it comes to Android platform phones, Motorola is simply leading in the terms of specs/quality. No droid is perfect but since 11/2009 the Droid lineup with Motorola exceed what the other manufacturers have brought to the table. Please think through your post before babbling online, k , thanks. Seems like you woke up from cell phone land ...
This is False
Best Buy will not be the only ones selling the HTC Thunderbolt. Totally false. Even other authorized retailers are going to be selling it as ordering managers have already been working out the first shipments. Our stores have already received the Model mock ups as well.
Best Buy attempted to be the only seller but that was quickly shot down around the CES in January.
Re: Yeah, that's real smart
PDAnet is a fantastic one time purchase app available for Blackberries, Droids and Iphones. Verizon cant tell its Tethering. Either they cant, or they dont care...though they "reserve the right". I have a friend that uses 10 to 15gigs a month cause hes downloading movies and been fine for over a year.
Re: Yeah, that's real smart
You can keep your nickel. Verizon Droids use as much or more data than a Iphone and Verizons network has been just fine thanks. Google "Droids use more data than Iphone?" CDMA network ftw! 8)
Re: "cough cough"
A buddy of mine has been using PDANet since Decemeber and has had 5 months in a row over 10 gigs. He downloads torrent files/movies to his computer and no problems. I never got close to 5 gigs so cant speak for myself.
Re: Tether for free with PDANet
Works great. It actually is available for Blackberrys and Iphones as well. Data test speeds actually would outperfom my Aircard, so I cancelled it!
Tether for free with PDANet
Just download PDANet in Android Market for free tethering and unlimited. You do pay something around $20 bucks after the 30 day trial. But its legit. Its allowed by Verizon, they know about it and dont restrict it and its part of you Unlimited data plan. I have used it since Dec 09 on my Droids.
Re: Data or no Data
Probably so but I hope not.
Re: Nice Big screen
Kyocera blows. Boooshh!
PDA Net People
Use PDA Net for tethering on your Iphone, your Blackberry or your Droid. Seriously, its $29 cost FOREVER and thats after a 30 day trial. Works great and no one, including Verizon can see that your back door tethering on the unlimited $29.99 data plan.
Any blah blah blah "violates terms of service" blah blah blah need not be posted, thanks in advance. Its been around a long time now and no one has had ...
Re: You CAN save apps to SD Card
from front page, "Among other new features, Android users will now be able to store apps on external memory, instead of the device's internal storage. This should allow for larger apps, which will include more advanced games."
Re: And this is why indirects don't push this phone.
Yep, thats why we have 300 stores and were not buying it for them 8)
Re: Very tempting...
Yeah, I had it on my Verizon Curve last summer. It was the Sprint version but it worked. I was able to listen to my Bears broadcasts anywhere. Much nicer on my droid though.

Here is what Apple has to give or Verizon to cave...
When he says, "Its up to Apple," this is whats up. ATT gives Apple $900,000,000 a quarter in revenue to have the Iphone with ATT. Think about that, almost 4 Billion dollars of much needed network enhancing, company improving money that gets tossed at Apple just to be able to offer it, a phone.
We have heard it straight from the South Area President and Regional Directers. Verizon's not gonna give Apple all that money ...

Re: ?. . .
Every Eris we activate has less than 60% battery life and they always get the update within 2 minutes of programming. They come from the manufacturer with about 30% so it doesnt have to be over 60%.
So to answer your question, when you activate a 2.0.1 Moto Droid 5 days after the OTA update has been sent, within a couple of minutes your phone is gonna get it.
Re: ?. . .
Within 2 or 3 minutes after the phone is activated, the Droid will receive the OTA software update.
Coming soon
Guess they will announce I hope when its coming but its not yet out. It will be a over the Air software update sent to your phone. The VZW link is just instructions on a how to. Also, if you have yours rooted with 2.1, make sure to roll back to 2.0.1 before installing this.
Re: Laughing my non-multi-tasking butt off!!!!!
Blue, quit bashing the superior Android. Face it, your Iphone is outdated.
I can download a song, over the Air, FREE, to my phone and I own it. I can then Bluetooth it to someone, put on my computer, give to anyone. (IMusic app in market).
I can choose and do(with exceptional glee) to root and overclock my droid to run at a solid & stable 1Ghz making it even faster than I can believe. 1.2Ghz if I wish making it ...
Re: Quality Control Standards
Whats that?? Ive had Google Earth on my Moto Droid for like a month.
Re: Quality Control Standards
Bluecoyote is just mad that Droids are better than Iphones and likes to try and make himself feel better by bashing Android interfaces and tout 3 year old out dated Iphones. :lol: :lol:
Androids rule Iphones Blue. /endthread
Android. There are so many advantages to the Droid software over the Iphone that I feel compelled to post due to the overwhelming Droid/Verizon bashing and Iphone/Apple loving of Bluecoyote.

Re: Hey Steve Jobs
Verizon is not going to take the Iphone if they have to pay 900million dollars per quarter like ATT does. There will have to be alot of adjustements to that for Verizon to accept the I-Cant-Phone.
Your Iphone......
is 2nd fiddle to the Motorola Droid! :lol:

Re: Sweet.........
Yeah. I am loving mine on 2.0.5 Bagel clocked the processor at 1Ghz. Blazing fast and beautiful. The huge plus for me is I get BETTER battery life with SetCPU than before which is astonishing. Amazing what scaling down the processor while in sleep/standby does for battery life.
Re: Sweet.........
Of course I have lots of 2.1 stuff already on mine from Sholes, so maybe thats why
Re: Sweet.........
??? I just went on my Moto Droid and searched Earth. Downloaded it and it works fine.
Re: WoW!!! 10 more years of CDMA!
CDMA is superior technology over GSM. GSM is the "world standard"? No, it was Europes standard. They decided long ago that all countries in Europe would use GMS and make it seamless. Doesnt make GSM the right choice or the better technology. It isnt.
Re: DO NOT root with Sholes if you have the ERIS

:o :o DAMIT!!!!!!!! that sux....but ok so tell me a lil more on the wireless teathering... so pretty much u were able to make ur droid shoot a wireless connection for your laptop to pick up and use?? SAWEEEEEEET!!!! im hopeing and hopeing that this type of $hit is available on the eris!!! :D
Yes. Not as fast as PDANet in speed tests but still quick on my labtop.
Re: ROOTING!!!!
You can seach 'Sholes' in Market to bring up Sholesmod to load some 2.1 features on your Droid and Root it. Great part for me is removing the "Car Mode". I use the Droid car holder and actually for me, hated having to back out of the Car mode. So now it just chills when I pop it in that.
The Wireless Tethering is fantastic also. It makes my phone like a portable WIFI. I ...
Re: Not to mention
Dont mind Bluecoyote, hes just a Iphone loving ATT'er who hates everything Verizon. Jealousy is mean emotion to carry! :lol:
Re: OR if they'd just carried phones nobody wants...
How about posting your source or link?
Re: Bye Bye Verizon!
Verizon is having NO issues with data problems like ATT has been having with the Iphone. We havent had "data" problems since EVDO came out so I have no idea what your spewing. Cant wait for LTE 50megs per sec comes out and blows everyone away! Go Verizon! (for the record, I do HATE forcing data on all these phones)
Re: Some Food for Though... Be Gentle
Now they are going to require the 9.99 data package on the Rival, Chocolate Touch, LG 8360, Env3 as well as the env touch and Rogue. SO dumb. The Intensity wont have to have it. I love Verizon but I really HATE forcing anyone to have to get this data package.
The change on monday is that the 9.99 is 25MB a month and INCLUDES Mobile Email. There is now a 29.99 option(lawl) for ...
Re: New Verizon plans Sunday 1/17
Ok..heres the best part of the changes taking effect Monday. Unlimited Minute plans go from 99.99 to 69.99. You can get 2 lines unlimited on a 'share' plan for $119.99. You can add a 3rd 4th and 5th Unlimited Share line for $49.99 after that. Pretty good for those that use alot and small companies. The data is changing on regular phones but im not going into all of that atm. Unlimited PDA/Blackberries/Droid ...
New Verizon plans Sunday 1/17
We have conference calls Thursday and Friday detailing the new Verizon plans that are coming out this Sunday. Everything is hush hush so I dont have any details.
When I see this article, I just HAVE to wonder if it is any foreshawdowing into whats about to hit Sunday. I love Verizon and we are the overall number one Cellular company, but I have always had a major distaste for forcing people to get a data package like they ...

and yet sprint is losing nearly a million post paid customers (or more) a quarter, while verizon is adding a million +.
Verizon's data coverage is larger, and because my entire family is Verizon, I'd pay MORE to switch to sprint than I'm currently paying through Verizon.
AMEN. Cause what really matters is having the reception to make calls and use the OHHH SO fast data network. Its fast cause they have less and less people on it! ...
