I've been shopping around carriers since my Boost Sanyo phone felt like taking a hot bath, and T-Mobile does not seem like a bad option, mainly due to that little "no deposit" thingy.

Now, I understand that most of the people that use this particular forum room are either T-Mob employees or customers, so I was wondering if there is anything I should expect or watch out for in starting service with them?

Remember, one more educated customer is one less customer on the phone inspiring new material for the Shop Talk forum.

Thanks,

I've been a long time Sprint customer and feel like I need a change. The only reason is because I feel like Sprint is awlays last to get anything good - in terms of devices.

I'm looking to get a new WP7 device and Tmobile seems to have the best selections (HD7 & Dell Venue Pro). The only issue seems to be their service plans. Am I missing something? Sprint has a $69 plan that includes unlimited data and text, while Tmobile looks to charge an extra $50 for data and text not to include $50 for the talk time. WTH?!?!

Really could use some insight into getting a good plan (if that is possible).

How can I unlock my T-Mobile mytouch 4g for free?

when is t-mo getting another feature packed nokia????


im saving my pennies for such a day

I want to switch from AT&T to T-Mobile and I just bought an unlocked phone from Nokiausa.com, a N97 mini. Will I be able to use the same phone, and not have a contract as a post paid customer? Thanks for any info.

Breaking away from the news, sales and normal rotation of stories we’ve received word of a nifty little feature T-Mobile will introduce on November 14th. T-Mobile will launch a $2.99 Caller Name Display add on feature that will allow customers to view the names and numbers of callers even if they aren’t listed in the customers address book. We’re trying to get word on what devices this will work on but we believe there is a 30-day free trial for postpaid customers.

A nifty little feature for those of who constantly receive phone calls from unknown numbers though in my case, I just let those people meet my voicemail.

Anyone have any experience with this feature? I see TMO wants another $2.99/mon...

I currently have a MyTouch Slide and I upgrade in Feb 2011. The G2 is really the only phone that appeals to me right now. I am not feelin that funky dull gray (titanium I guess) color. Does anyone know if they will be releasing this phone in more colors later? Black and white would be nice.

We are going on a month (november 9th)Since the T-Mobile service rep determined that my wifes Vibrant need to be replaced. I have called at leased 9 times, Have been given one excuse after another from problems with the order process to out of stock phone. written to e-mails.....To date now response back from t-mobile. I initiate the calls and get a promised call back then nothing till my next call....their warranty replacement program sucks

What phones have the ability to use wi-fi calling...anyone know???

Check it! Two year contract gets you a brand new T-Mob G2 for free. One day offer 11/29. ONLY IF YOU CALL 1-800-T-Mobile!!! 😁

Does anybody know if the zune software on the new windows phones allows you to save the music to your sd card/phone memory? It seems like the most logical thing to do, but I wouldn't be surprised if they used some kind of pandora style constant data connection required method of listening to zune music. Thanks.

If I buy something from the android market does it get charged to my bill for next month?

Thanks!

Alright, so I am all gung ho about jumping onto the BB bandwagon when the drop date for the BB Bold 9780 arrived last Wednesday only to find out that the stores in my area only received the phone in white (seriously T-Mobile?) and none can tell when they will receive delivery of the phone in black. My two questions/gripes...

1. Why do the T-Mobile retail stores not know when they will receive delivery of the phone in black? It seems incomprehensible to run a business and not know when a shipment of stock is set to arrive. Isn't that the case for most other businesses?

2. Why is T-Mobile not more on the ball about availability of this phone in black? This phone has been on the "to arrive" list for months and the...

Can anyone tell me how I can figure out whether to go with a limited or unlimited data plan? My new BB 9780 is on its way and I will need to make a decision about adding data to my account.

How does T-Mobile specifically count one's data usage and what is considered typical (I know the use of the word typical is problematic but I use that for lack of a better word)?

Does anyone know anything about some type of upcoming sale/special related to plans for TMobile that include data? I felt like I read something very recently about TMobile having some type of holiday special in early December but now I can't relocate the info.

Hi! Thnx for help in advance. Friend lost phone, but has insurance. He is also out of contract. Suggested he get a sim @ Tmobile store (corp) and use old phone while insurance sends replacement. Friend says rep would not provide sim for free, and says the rep told him insurance would replace old phone only (as it's what account would show) and not the actual lost phone. Does T mobile replace sim for free? Was rep correct about the insurance, or only trying for upgrade? Thanks again, any input appreciated.

The $70 prepaid plan....does prepaid give you the same nationwide access as you get on a postpaid plan? Basically I am askign if coveage is 100% the same and roaming is allowed?

I need a new phone with stronger reception. The appartment is virtually a dead zone and I can only send and retrieve txt messages. Calls will not be received nor are they able to be dialed out. One bar pops up once in awhile. The second I step out of the appartment, I have bars. Numerous complains to T-Mobil. They said to get a BB and they will waive the requirement to get a data bundle. And they only gave me 2 bb options. The current is the 9300. But it only has a 2MP camera.

Camera is very important to me. I currently have the Samsung T919 and T-Mobil advised that it is one of the most complained about phones when it comes to signal strength.

I DO NOT want to purchase a data plan. I do not access the internet on my phone.

Any sugg...

Will I be able to un-upgrade my device?

I finally signed a new contract and upgraded to the mytouch 4g. I like the phone but I am not liking the bloatware. I was using an unlocked phone (N900).

Can I take the phone back to the store and get my money back?

Thanks!

I got the G4 over the weekend and I am thrilled by it. Since this is the first T-Mobile phone I have had for a while all my old and none functional phone numbers have popped up. I have used unlocked phones in the past so it only reads the numbers on my SIM.

Anyways, I was in the store and all the guys working there had a G2.

Do they know anything I don't? as in if the G2 is a better phone?

Please advise. I am still within the 14 day return period.

Thanks!

I need a new phone i am not sure if i should go with the g2 or the vibrant...anybody have any ideas?
