Re: Hey Eric
i wouldn't - the camera on the Galaxy S II is noticeably better. It's confusing, as they both have an 8mp camera - but i've used both, and the Galaxy S II camera consistently takes better photos.
Priceless!
“A company (Sprint) that has outsourced the management of its own network shouldn’t be giving advice to others,†an AT&T spokesman said.

Re: iphone or android? you decide
Wow, the fact that you are an actual AT&T Customer Service employee just reinforces every bad stereotype that anyone has ever had about AT&T. Its not Windows Mobile 7 - anyone with any iota of technical knowledge, especially someone employed by a cell phone company, should know that its called Windows Phone 7. If you don't believe me, check out Microsoft's own site - at the top they have the two difference operating systems to choose from - Windows ...
Re: att is behind on this LTE
And people wonder why AT&T customer service is rated so low - even their own employee's don't have a clue as to what's going on inside their own company (I say this as an ex AT&T employee who despised the other employees who constantly paraded around completely wrong information). You say you can see "planned towers"? The tool you are probably referrig to when you state you can "see" this information is simply a front line tool for ...
Re: att is behind on this LTE
HzD incredible said:
i can see towers and planned towers. they will have alot from may to july. wait and see
Apparently you can see more than ATT can, because in their announcement they stated 5 markets by summer and 10 more by the end of the year, not 55 by June.
Re: att is behind on this LTE
I don't know if it's ambition at this point, I think ATT is probably waiting to see what happens with TMO before they go too much into it. Either way, though, the reason doesn't matter, it's still frustrating for the consumer.
Re: att is behind on this LTE
And no, I'm not a Verizon fanboy, I'm just an AT&T customer who is somewhat disappointed with AT&T lagging behind all the other major carriers with their "4G" rollout.
Re: att is behind on this LTE
What? So your telling me that the first tower goes up in in the end of May, and that by the end of June will cover more than Verizon? What flavor is the kool-aid you're drinking? AT&T was laughingly slow at building out its 3G network, and you're telling me they will have 70+ markets lit up with LTE in one month? Um, gonna go with a no on this one.
Re: samsung infuse 4g or htc inspire?
Infuse - same 8mp camera as Inspire, but i think the quality is better on the Infuse, and also has a 1.3mp front camera. Screen is absolutely amazing as well.
Re: WHITE iPHONE 4 FYI
Too bad sales reps who work for corporate ATT don't make as much on AppleCare anymore - ATT cut their commission in half on AppleCare
Re: Unlimited iphone data
ATT was adding it back to customers who originally had unlimited and switched off it - not customers who never had unlimited data. Someone coming on a forum and offering to give customer's unlimited data is acting against ATT policy, and if caught, would probably be fired for commissions fraud.
Re: Samsung Inspire
You mean the Samsung Infuse? The Inspire is the HTC Inspire
Re: Unplugging the old network?
Your phone is locked to ATT Wireless - new ATT (old Cingular) sim cards will not work in those devices unless they are unlocked. ATT does not unlock those devices b/c they want you to get a new device (and the corresponding 2 yr agreement). You could unlock the phone and it would work fine - either at a local place that does it or by looking online.
Re: AT&T #1 again
8-15%? The highest estimate from anyone was 10 million (10.5%) - and that was laughed off by almost every other news site/cell phone blog out there. Most every other site had it in the 2-3 million range (2.1% - 3.2%), with 5 million (5%) at max. I think the 8-15% you are speaking about were talking about 8-15% of ATT's iPhone customers - not overall customer base.

Re: ATT customer service surpasses Verizon in latest JD Powers survey
The funnypart about this rankin is that ATT improved most in their actual retail store customer service rankings. Their actual customer service group - the people you call in to talk to - are still ranked as among the worst in the industry, yet their in store performance is substantially better - what gives?
Re: Iphone 3gs problems after 4.0 sortware upgrade
Wow - that was a nice little childish rant, all we needed was stomping feet and a door slam. Try posting some information that will help people instead of your predictable anti-ATT/anti-Apple ranting and raving.
ATT customer service surpasses Verizon in latest JD Powers survey
"T-Mobile ranks highest in wireless customer care performance with an overall score of 777.........AT&T follows in the overall rankings with a score of 757 and performs well among customers who visit retail store locations and among customers who contact their carrier online."

Re: Voyager
Try telling that to your car insurance company if you pulled off the same thing with them - its the same thing. Dollar amount doesn't matter - fraud is fraud. Trying to "legitimize" it just shows your lack of moral aptitude.
Re: Issues with iPhone signal strength indicator
Love the last paragraph - it appears Apple's free ride is finally over. Basically every other problem with previous iPhones has always been blamed on ATT and they have gotten off without a scratch - now the truth is finally coming around. Both ATT and Apple are to blame - ATT for not planning ahead in regards to their network and Apple for basically putting out an iPod Touch with substandard phone components.
Re: Verizon and iphone?
How long have they been saying Verizon will get the iPhone... :? AT the Droid X launch event, Verizon told customers that if they were eligible to upgrade anytime this year, they would let them upgrade to the Droid X, much like ATT did with the iPhone. Why would they do that just to have the iPhone out in January and all these unhappy customers who couldn't get it....?
Re: Will the new iPhone be available June 24th?......
Also, an interesting point from the Engadget.com review of the new iPhone....
"The big question is obviously whether or not this fixes or helps with the constant dropped calls iPhone users on AT&T's network have gotten used to. Well in our testing, we had far, far fewer dropped calls than we experienced on our 3GS. Let's just say that again: yes, the iPhone 4 does seem to alleviate the dropped call issue. It wasn't perfect, and we had some connection ...
Re: Will the new iPhone be available June 24th?......
Haven't seen a negative review on it yet, granted i haven't taken the time to read all the little johnny/sally sue do it yourself reviews, but all of the major review sites are giving it solid reviews.....

Re: At&t Cuss...tomer (Who) Care Dept.
Huh? Seriously? Posts/users like this are the exact reason why I stopped coming to the forum - was hoping some time away would have allowed the trolls/idiots to leave, but apparently has just given them time to multiply.
Re: Then you are the reason they created the plans.
Yes I stream video daily, listen to pandora daily, and surfthe net daily, and have never gone over 2 gigs. So you feel that the company should shape it's policy around your usage habits? How about the person who hardly ever uses data - why should they pay more for less usage? 98% of ATTs customers use less than 2 gigs a month - so this change is positive for 98% of ATT users. Youre never going to make ...
Re: At&t Cuss...tomer (Who) Care Dept.
Hmmm actually it wasn't the CEO - if you are talking about the incident that was on the news. It was a normal rep in ATTs "office of the president" department - which is to say thy were just a standard customer service rep in a group assigned to handle executive complaints. Also, I don't think it was reported anywhere that the customer was cursed out, so please get your facts straight before posting (or maybe you just enjoy ...
Wow, has this site really deteriorated to post like this?
Whatever happened to when people would actually post valuable information on this site - anymore its completely ridiculous items like this and flame wars. Phonescoop has officially become the "highscool" of cell phone forums.

You've got this ALL WRONG! It's the fault of the AT&T service that the customer has to behave in a frustrated way towards them because of at&t apathy in caring for their network. You could sit here and show me numbers and stats all day long but the fact that the quality absolutely sucks is an attribute that speaks entirely for itself! It's plain and simple as that! Dropped calls has been a HUGE ...
Re: BY ALL MEANS go to another carrier...Here's why?
Since you value "experiences" over "facts" I will give you my experience - I travel for my job, all over the country, and the reason I use ATT and Verizon is b/c both of them are considerably better than Sprint in almost every area I travel in. Are there areas in the country where Sprint would be better? I'm 100% sure there are places like that, but for the places I go to, that isn't the case. To make ...
Re: BY ALL MEANS go to another carrier...Here's why?
Where have you "heard" that the phone will be 750-800 with ATT? That's the unsubsidized pricing you are talking about - with ATT the most expensive subsidized phone i've ever seen was in the $400 - $500 range - nowhere near the 750-800 you are talking about.
Also, your statement that other carriers have more "reliability" built into their equipment is absolutely ridiculous. I'll take hard, cold facts over your "experiences" any time - show me one credible study ...
Re: Gee... maybe it's a rough econ?
The market has probably been saturated for 1-2 years now, ATT and Verizon were able to offset that by picking up the customers that Sprint was bleeding out. Now that Sprint has at least slowed down the bleeding you are starting to see ATT and Verizons numbers slow down. (at least that's my take on the situation)
Re: Gee... maybe it's a rough econ?
Ummm that's the exact point I was trying to make. ATT adding fewer contract subscribers is not something to e worrie about as even Verizon, which normally has the strongest retail postpaid growth out of all carriers was down in 1Q as well. I'm sick of all the immature idiots on here who know nothing about the industry posting a blurb from a website that they can't even truly comprehend.
Re: ***Verizon adds even fewer
Unfortunately for Big Red, it didn’t fare as well as Ma Bell. Over the past three months, 423,000 new post-paid customers put ink to a contract. Overall, Verizon gained 1.5 million net customers to bring its overall total to 92.8 million. Postpaid churn matched AT&T’s 1.07%, while the overall rate was 1.4%.

Re: the iPhone is far from Perfect!
Your statement just blatantly highlights your complete incompetence in regards to wireless devices. Its common knowledge among those in the cell phone industry or those familiar with it that the phone doesn't have to set next to any liquid or have liquid spilled on it to get what is referred to as "liquid damage." Condensation can cause it, heavy humidity, leaving the phone on the bathroom counter while you take a shower, etc etc. There are a million and ...
Re: ***AT&T adds fewer new contract customers 1Q 2010!!!!!
Post paid churn fell to a record low 1.07% while overall churn decreased to 1.3%. the increase in prepaid adds is expected as prepaid growth is one of ATTs big focuses in 2010. You can spin numbers to say whatever you want but 1.9 million subcribers, record low churn, and a near 30% increase I revenue is a pretty solid month no matter how you look at it ( pretty sure tmobile or sprint would kill for those numbers)
Re: NOT a FLAME, just some fun i had with a ATT rep.
FYI - if you have to start your post by stating its "not a flame", then its probably a flame :roll:
Re: AT&T will take $1B non-cash charge for health care
I couldn't agree more. I feel sorry for any employee who has worked their butts off to stay with a company that provides good benefits - thanks to your elected congress, you will now more than likely start paying a significant amount more for your health insurance, or have benefits cut back. Meanwhile the guy down the street barely holding on to his job at McDonalds, who wouldn't know a work ethic if it slapped him in the face, ...
Question for Verizon employees
Have you all noticed if the new higher ETF on data devices has curbed the amount of people who are buying phones then cancelling line(s)/reselling phone(s)?
