AT&T drops T-mobile bid - confirmed

I guess it's good news for us all.

Bring on DISH or Google!
Here's a link if anyone wants to see the official statement

WSJ reports this as fact YAY!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL ATT are insane. Look at this hype they have made:
“The actions by the Federal Communications Commission and the Department of Justice to block this transaction do not change the realities of the U.S. wireless industry. It is one of the most fiercely competitive industries in the world, with a mounting need for more spectrum that has not diminished and must be addressed immediately. The AT&T and T-Mobile USA combination would have offered an interim solution to this spectrum shortage. In the absence of such steps, customers will be harmed and needed investment will be stifled.”
Sure.

I'm thankful I get to keep my job! Now tmobile has to think of a crazy master plan. Google exclusive partnership please!

Google exclusive!!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

Google is almost not possible. They don't know about the wireless industry and they wouldn't become T-Mobile exclusive when the OS is on all carriers.
There is enough hate in the world. Why can't we all get along here ...?

Hallelujah. Sometimes prayers are answered.

Hmm... a roaming agreement... sweeeeeeeeeeeet, I can mooch of your 42mbps HSPA+ while mooching off AT&T's LTE.
Also, Google will NEVER make their OS exclusive to any carrier, and if they did, it would be Verizon... because Verizon is the biggest android carrier.
Anyways, happy for you guys, you get a few more months till someone else bids for T-Mobile.

Where can we find details on the roaming agreement? will we have 4g roaming?

So switch to ATT dude. Overwhelming majority of folks were disgusted by the thought of having the death star take over tmo. But there are instances where att is the best fit, such as your case. Sell your gs2, pay the etf and switch dude. Problem solved.

I have been chatting with this girl on Craig list who wants to get rid of her sgs3 to help pay for an iphone later this week....
I know all the sprint / tmobile phones on Craig list eventually are blocked for non payment / reported stolen...
To my understanding att doesn't care about this stuff... At least last year the un didn't..
Is that still the case? Don't want to get this good deal on a phone just to have to unlock and sell it again..

What if somebody opens an att account.. Sells their phone on Craig list and stops payments to it.. Will att block the phone they got with the contract?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium

Just meet up at the store make the purchase there. If the seller is unwilling to go there then tell them to screw off. They will have security cameras all over the place so there is evidence that this person is selling you the phone; and you will also have a witness that this is taking place so if later they claim that they never sold it to you and it was in fact stolen then you have some evidence in your corner. Legally speaking nothing is concrete but you have to think as litigious as possible because scum is everywhere.
And if you want to get really ridiculous you could type up a document stating that they will in fact pay in full the remainder of the contract and/or pay any fees necessary to keep "the specific ImeI" from being blocked from att service. You would have to have them sign it in front of a witness and a notary. If I were spending more than 400 bucks I would get this ridiculous. Then if you have to take them to small claims court this contract will be as good as any other contract and any judge worth a damn will force them to pay the damages.

Tmobile is lying to customers about tether

Hello. I am a bit miffed at tblowhole. I called trying to add the 14.99 tether plan to my account that has "truly unlimited 4g".
I was told it was impossible to add for it would not work. Now any good xda junky knows that this is untrue. I can tether through work around that prove them to be lying, now what has me miffed is even if we want to pay for it we can't.
Now I am wondering if we whom are on this whack ass carrier can do something about them discriminating and lying flat out to those of us on the plan. They will sell the package to everyone else but us.
I feel this is a deceptive practice and would love to get as many users as possible to write and email to the bbb and fcc for the unfair business practices.
I am fully aware of tsucktoes jargon and schpeal and know it to be flat bs. They are lying to us and refuse to offer the same services to us that they offer tiered customers.
Subscribers unite and let's figure out how to but their balls to the flame and let those of us willing to pay for it on this plan get it. I would rather be legit and not have to try an circumvent this bs through other means.
What say you?

It's not that the "can't" do it, it's that they "won't". If they were to offer that option to the truly unlimited plan I'm sure they would increase the cost of that plan quite a bit. I don't see how this decision could be called "deceptive" since the plan description does say "Smartphone Mobile HotSpot service not compatible with Unlimited Nationwide 4G Data."

The reason they have tethering plans with caps as well as the unlimited plan is because they don't allow tethering on the unlimited plan. If you want to tether get a capped plan.

You weren't lied to. T-Mobile reps can't add mobile hotspot along with Unlimited 4g. It wouldn't work when they process it in the system. Complaining about this when you post on a developers forum which has posted plenty of work arounds seem childish. Be grateful that T-Mobile even offers unlimited 4G and didn't follow AT&T and Verizon in capping data.

Well, you tether with the option which you're not supposed to.
You can do it for "quickie", but you're warned. You may be moved out the "unlimited" option and moved to 5GB or 10GB and you're flagged.
I wouldn't risk it because I need it (remote desktop uses a lot of data), and I have webconnect plan so I just use it when I need it.

It's on their website that you can't add tethering, it's in their terms of service, and the rep on the phone told you they don't do it. Where are they deceiving you? Obviously it's possible but it's not allowed because they don't want people using their phones as a modem for their entire house.

How is that discrimination? If they were to allow tethering on the unlimited plan then many people would turn off their home internet service and just use their phone's mobile hotspot feature. This would drastically increase the data usage on T-Mobile's network and slow down service for everyone. That's why the unlimited plan cannot be used with the mobile hotspot service.

On an unlimited plan it makes sense for them NOT to allow tethering. Think what would happen to the bandwidth if everyone started tethering with unlimited data. Business sense is all that is, and I prefer they keep it that what so my data plan doesn't go up in price. That would happen for sure if that were to happen. Sorry but that's just now it is.

You fill app they go off your income need pay stub and a bank account
They approve u for from 200-800 in store credit u pay only 10% down of the total u spend so if u get 600 credit
You can spend up to that

I honestly think Sprint will be involved. They're building out their network but there's no way they can get a nation covered by 2013. They will likely partner with Sprint with their lte network for its coverage until they get a hold of things. Reason being, they want to compete against Verizon and At&t, and T-Mobile has the speeds they need, but not exactly the coverage. When sprint finishes their network vision, it'll be on par with Verizon in terms of speeds and coverage.

Agree with you on that one. I actually think it might be better as Sprint is upgrading every tower in their network with a few exceptions. I'm also excited Sprint just bought some people and spectrum from US Cellular in the Chicago market. In two years, Sprint will have THE best network in Chicago, and I'm happy about that.

They will probably be very tempting when it comes to their entry level pricing. Google likes to recruit a lot of customers by promotions that they lose money on, then make the money from elsewhere. (Ie: Google Play Market. If they sell only Android phones, more android apps will be bought from the market.)

The article says the Google network will be data-only, no call minutes or SMS/MMS. That stuff would be handled as VoIP, most likely through Google Voice.
So, I'm guessing it would be $20-40/month for unlimited data. Any sort of cap obviously wouldn't work for a data-only network.

Dish Network owns AWS-4 spectrum at 2000Mhz/2200Mhz spectrum. This frequency covers slightly less customers with slightly less building penetration. The best way to think of it is between Sprint's 3G and Wimax coverage.
If they decide to go with Sprint in the meantime, they'll probably be forced to have a cap on data until they get their own network on the ground. Google will definitely have a strong presence in the U.S. cellular market.

Every nexus device they've released has always been on GSM networks first and I don't even think the Nexus 4 will hit Sprint or Verizon.
Google loves the sim cards.

Google's looking at data only network, which means it'll need fast speeds to support voice over IP. LTE is a gsm based technology and Sprint is Google's best carrier friend (Google Voice, Google Play bill to account features, etc.)
