I just got a letter terminating me from sprint for roaming. I'm not going to lie at first I wanted this and roamed a lot, that was the first two months into my contract. Now I love my phone and coverage is better but I just got kicked. I'm so upset but I guess I asked for this. I have until April 4 to change. I'm going to miss this phone. If I flash it to metro can I still use custom roms?

you could still flash custom roms no matter if you put it on metro or boost cricket or even virgin mobile

Sorry to hear that man, gotta ask what was your data usage lookin like.
It was like 1gb 200 minutes one month it was 2gbs on 3g the next month . So mms will still work on boost if I use custom roms...

Out of curiosity, since they terminated you, are you able to keep you number when you switch to a new carrier?

Why? Sprint not cutting it for you?
If its any consolation the epic touch has great resale value. Maybe sell it and get the note with crappy at&t or galaxy nexus on Verizon. I'm currently using mine on Cricket and it fits my needs. Thinking of going with sprint once lte is available in my area.

Speeds are declining fast for me. Youtube vids buffer every 10 seconds for 30 seconds. I still have over a year on contract so I may exercise my "right" to get out of it
Thinking about it a little more, I just may want a new phone and sprint doesn't have any announced right now. I usually get a new phone every 6 months or so.... That Note is calling my name

Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
If were going to consider any new device that's coming soon (which I'm not), it would be the HTC One-X. The Note is too big for me. The form factor of the E4GT is my limit.
Haha I would love the note on sprint or my future is probably verizon since i want to move to the middle of nowhere. My max form factor is 8 inches. Steve Jobs could have started a clothing line dedicated to "Hummer" phones and made another billion instead of whining that no one would buy one.

Do you still have to pay the early termination fee? If not I'm thinking about doing that..just to break contract with sprint. I'm thing the GS3 is coming to att and plus it support LTE unlike sprint only have two phone that will be coming out which support.

I'm curious if Sprint is going to let you migrate that number over to Boost (Sprint owns Boost).
Also, I also wonder if you can get the E4GT over on Boost without doing some, how shall I say, questionable tatics.

I like my Inc2 ten times better than my Fascinate. The GPS actually works in this device. I also get great battery life and there is no lag for me.
Here is a similar post from AC http://forums.androidcentral.com/verizon-droid-incredible-2/107364-any-dinc2-users-coming-fascinate-2.html#post1146594
The Dinc2 is extremely well endowed compare to the Fascinate, it has got both length and girth, you will be very satisfied with it I'm sure.
Seriously, we exchanged both our fascinates for the Dinc2 two weeks ago and love the new phone, wondered why we didn't do it sooner.
I had a fascinate, and would not go back. Build quiality seems better, GPS works, battery lasts longer, and in general, it's a lot less work to maintain, even if you're flash happy. No odin here obviously, but once it's rooted and setup, it's a breeze.
If you want a good phone go with the Inc 2. The smart play would be getting a Charge so your grandfathered in on 4G and wont have to pay more later on.

I had this same convo with vz on Sunday except I have a problematic droid 2 global. The after going back and forth and "supervisor approval" they agreed to send me a dinc2 in place of my droid 2 global free. The only catch was I had to meet them half way and buy a battery door and battery for it. Money well spent if you ask me. They were cheap on amazon. It hasn't arrived yet but I've heard nothing but good stuff about the dinc2. Can't be worst then my d2g.

You may be grandfathered into unlimited data for 3G but that doesnt mean 4G. When they start charging the extra for it youll still be on unlimited but data will be 45 a month not 30. Thats what I mean.

Well from a common sense stand point lets look at other competitors. Sprint, 10 dollars a month extra for "Premium data". T-Mobile after a certain amount you lose your 4G speeds and drop down to almost 2G speeds. And not to mention my cousin is the head engineer for western Arizona and that came straight from him. 4G is expensive to offer and maintain.
Hers what I found about upgrading to 4g. http://www.droid-life.com/2011/06/2...g-to-4g-after-july-7-can-keep-unlimited-data/i couldn't find anything about raising 4g prices.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA App
I actually asked tier 2 tech when I was on the phone. he said they aren't able to talk about it with customers because nothing has Bern discussed yet. but that as long as you're grandfathered into unlimited data he doesn't think they will charge us more for 4g. so technically not proof, but I'd tale.his word over rumors. which is exactly what he said that is, rumors.

Ok guys, here's my "delimma". I have an upgrade available to me. I've been wanting a gs2 since it came out in Europe. I had every intention of getting this within the first week it came out on tmo. BUT, reading about all the issues with lines on the screen, resolution, etc, I'm skeptical. It's basically going to be this phone or I'll cancel my line (I'm on a family line). I havent had a chance to play with one in person yet. So, in the meantime, I'm trying to gather opinions on the phone.
With all that being said, if you had a chance to relive Wednesday or whatever day you bought the gs2, would you buy it again?

I am eligible for an upgrade to my iPhone 3GS from AT&T. Picked up a Galaxy S II and ported my number over to TMO. Almost everything about this phone is better than my old iPhone. Couldn't be happier. Oh, and I'm paying less for my plan, too!
Yep, I can relate to some. I tried the epic 4g touch version on sprint. If I could swap the internals with that it would be more awesome. As it stands though, once root is here and I can tether I'll be stoked. As of right now I'm happy with it. It feels solid and has a professional look and feel to it.

Hey, I don't know if you signed another contract yet but I know for a fact Sprint is going to have a huge difference in service over the year. I mean HUGE. I mean really big difference. Like 4x difference. So, if you like the cheap prices you might stick around. Get an airave for home. If you want me to elaborate PM me.
I just don't want you stuck paying twice as much with another 2 year contract.

Your questions sound like the people who work in customer service and don't want you to leave lol. I have not decided what carrier yet but I do have ideas. I've been with 3 of the 4 majors so I know 3 services and how good/bad they are. Verizon is the only one I haven't tried but they are expensive. We will see. I can't rely on Sprint's network. I got a family. What if there's an emergency you know? I can't be getting voice mails 3 days late or text messages hours or a day after they were sent by the other person. And I live in a good service area, my bars are mostly up and I get 2 bars of 4G out of 3 bars so I just don't understand it with Sprint.

Hi.
I bought this phone 3 days ago. It's all stock. Untouched!
I am having reception issues at my house.
I have spent hours with t-mobile reps.
Finally they admitted that my house location is "borrowing signal" from other carriers, as they have no tower here. So i am borrowing from AT&T and (could it be - verizon?? that's what the rep told me in any case).
In any case, is this a legitimate way of leaving the contract i signed? Obviously I can't keep using T-Mobile.
Also, if it is a legitimate cancellation reason, what is going to be done with my phone itself? Do I need to ship it back? Do I get to keep it?
Thank U all !!!
Unless u paid retail for the phone, im sure it still belongs to the carrier? I do believe its a legit reason for tmobile to cancel the contract tho.

The reason I am asking here, is that you guys are impartial. I know I can just call T-Mobile, but they might sell me something or not share the entire info. I am mainly interested in what is going to happen with the phone itself. I love the phone. I would even unlock it and move to ATT (and yes, limit myself to 2G - that's fine), but are they going to let me keep the phone?

Negative. Unless you paid full price for the phone, it still belongs to T-Mobile. However, if you cancel, and then head over to ATT, they'll have some nice phones as well, including the Skyrocket (our sister phone), AND the international SII.

I think you get a 14 day trial. You may have to pay a $25 restocking fee though.
Edit. When I posted this from the mobile app I would have been the third post, but ended up way down here. So didn't mean to be redundant.

Your best best is to check with T-Mobile and see if they will allow someone to take over your contract and if so start looking for someone to do so. 5 weeks goes beyond any return period I have heard and they will most likely they would say it isn't their fault you moved to an area where they don't have great reception.
Isn't the etf $200? If so you can pay that. Sell the phone on Craigslist, easily and buy another on Craigslist for similar price. Better yet get the note for att.

From my own personal experience, they will not waive the contract cancel fee for this situation.
