Yes, there is: use the phone in the early morning or late at night.

When did you start your contract and if you keep pushing it you can but is a lot calls for it to get you out free in the other hand the price of the GN should be enough to get out of ETF( that's what I did)

i just renewed last month. dam so sell the phone for 300 and that should pay the eft fee.
As has been posted here and all over the web several thousand times, Sprint's 3G data speeds are terrible pretty much nationwide. They have a few markets that are ok, but many aren't

Well you could get closed to 400$ but I would try to see if sprints lets you go without fee

flash a Verizon prl on your phone and consume alot of data and sprint will boot you after a month or two of alot of roaming etf free. Its what I am doing.

I would do that as well. But I have three phones on one account and that means buying all new phones and 2gnexs and an epic 4g won't pay for new phones and contracts. Unfortunately I'll have to deal with it. Until LTE hits me. At least I hope it does.

when you sell your sprint phones when they cancel your service it will more than cover your new phones. You would actually come out ahead a little.

AT&T GoPhone is one of the worst choices for prepaid smartphones.
Unlocked gsm nexus might wait until thanksgiving for the new 5 nexus devices
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
this is precisely why i'm leaving Sprint and going to T-Mobile. the 4G Wimax is fast (5000kbps) but none of the newer Sprint phones are using Wimax anymore and Sprint's 3G is crawling at <500kbps. Can't wait to activate my nexus on T-Mobile when my SIM comes in!

The only problem I had with it was on the unlimited everything plan for $50, they booted me when they found out I wasn't using a dumb phone but that was after trying to download a ROM haha. Switching to another European phone put data right back on.

Very cool, I still remember the old GSM vs. CDMA days where this was always an advantage to GSM. I'll have to read up on SVDO, it's funny this is no where advertised!

Hold off til the new nexus comes out. After getting the nexus 7 i will never buy a non nexus device ever again.
$2? I say go for it. Its about the same quality of phone but the nexus will be supported software wise.

If you have strong 4G LTE where you are, I'd say go for it. If not, and your 4G Wimax is good, stay with the E4GT.
I'm in Dallas and bought a used Sprint Nexus when LTE first hit here. It was so weak and sporadic that my Wimax was better, so I came back to my trusty E4GT.
Yes I would say it comes down to LTE. As far as the phone I prefer my s2 compared to my wife's G Nexus.
She uses my camera more than she uses her phone.

I guess is 2$ plus 2 years so yes it is a bad deal

This is not necessarily true.
Is there a way everyone can get this deal or did you work it out with an employee you know or something? And would I be able to do it if I'm nowhere near an upgrade?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Id get it over the Epic because of LTE & Jellybean alone. BUT, I wouldnt want to use the Nexus for two years, at this point. So id pass!
I had to work it out with an employee, this is after all the rebates and trade in and stuff
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
The deal is with 2 more years?

ROMS for Metropcs GS3??

So I currently own both e4gt and gs3 on Sprint and I'm tempted to make the jump to Metro since they have lte in my area and Sprint won't have it till Q2 of next year ; I'm hesitated because I love flashing roms and there isn't a specific forum for the device. Could someone give me some advice on it? TIA :beer:

Since the phone is really a sprint device I'd assume the sprint roms would work on a flashed gs3. If 4G works after the phone is flashed I'd love to know because sprint's data speeds are despicable

I wouldn't flash it over to Metro since I wouldn't have 4g lte. I'd sell both sg2&sg3 and buy the Metro gs3. I'm just wondering what ROM I could flash.

Oh... I didn't know metro was going to be carrying it. If the hardware is the same as the us variants (dual core 1.5 and 2 gigs ram) I would try one of those. The first hurdle is getting root access
