Hi guys. Haven't been here in a while. Incite died, and didn't feel like paying a million bucks for an iPhone. Was going to buy one, and they were out of stock. Got to looking around and found the Focus. I LOVE this phone, but i have one problem: There's no EQ, ANYWHERE. Does anyone know of a way that we could build one/enable one? Has someone made one? Am i SOL?

Hello,

iam looking for an APP to use my MH100 Wireless Headset as a FM-Reciever... its from the Aino and there it works as FM-Reciever so i think its in the Bluetooth unit...

Has anyone a clue how to get this working? Headset funktions are all working very good...

CM6.1.3 / 4.5.7
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yabuki77:
I think you are right about the FM-Reciever. I have been using this MH100 for along since my Aino to my HTC-Desire and now HTC-DHD. with no problem at all.... one thing to add does anyone know how to check the battery status for MH-100 through android? My Aino does, since it is meant for Aino. :D

[G2 and Desire Z General] the orange bandit:
Man. I was on Cingular since it was SouthwesternBellWireless, and refused to deal with the snobs at AT&T. Then (sorta-kinda) I ended up on AT&T anyways, just dumped them for T-Mobile in November, and now I'm going to end up BACK on AT&T. I just can't freakin get away from them.

I got a G2 that says Verizon buys either Sprint or MetroPCS before the end of the year.

[G2 and Desire Z General] darkrift2012:
Typical...

I left Sprint for my business account in February after 9 years and moved on to one of my family T-Mobile accounts dating back to the Voicestream days, SPECIFICALLY because I don't want the AT&T or Verizon headaches.

Being responsible for various company's telecom, data and mobile services, I've dealt with every single one of the carriers over the past 16 years, and can say without hesitation that T-Mobile has the BEST customer service. AT&T is the absolute worst, with the possible exception of Orange or Vodafone-AG.

I had dared to dream that T-Mobile and Sprint would reach an agreement, reach critical mass and survive as a viable alternative to the AT&T-Verizon hegemony.

IMHO, it is unrealistic to expect Congress to review this merger in an unbiased manner. AT&T and T-Mobile have a legion of lobbyists already "explaining" the value & importance of this transaction to our elected officials; as money flows into re-election campaign funds, elaborate "fact finding missions" and junkets to European destinations are planned & payed for; college scholarships are awarded to family members through obscure networks of shell organizations...

Then again, maybe our elected officials will surprise me... we're still going to get that hopey-changey thing someone was selling in 2008, right?
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
Seriously, F AT&T, they are going to ruin everything that is good about T-mobile.

Say bye-bye to phones like the G2 when AT&T is around, they're notoriously terrible about progressing stock android devices, and have always stopped the side-loading of non-market apps on every Android phone they have.

As long as they don't get rid of non contract Even More+ plans and keep my plan cheap, I don't really care, but I can only imagine prices and everything are going up. Not to mention that we're gonna more than likely lose unlimited data, and lose free tethering.

T-mobile has been fantastic to me and its a great deal, but I just have a bad feeling nothing is getting better with this except coverage. Id rather have poor coverage than everything else that AT&T is going to do to wreck a great carrier.
[G2 and Desire Z General] KCRic:
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad:

I'm not with AT&T for a damn reason - they suck!!! I could go all day listing every reason why they suck but it's too nice outside. This just messed up my whole damn day. Really, will this even pass the check points? I mean they will have a monopoly for the most part on ALL gsm service in the CONUS.

It's almost April... maybe this is just an early joke, a very sick one at that and not even funny.

I hate Motorola's implemintation of Android and since those are the only decent Android phones Verizon carries - Sprint, here I come. I live in their home city anyway.

[G2 and Desire Z General] juscozimme:
Does it really matter if you jump ship or not? One way or the other it was going to happen. ATT started to take over with UVERSE now other cable companies are following their scam by not allowing a direct cable link. I thought I was gonna have regular cable then poof.......... I have to buy a box or rent a box, What's next?

Well I have a verizon acct who entered the 4g LTE but get the unlimited price now or it might not be there later. Greed, Greed too much Greed. Well maybe ATT will have 4G soon. Just face it they have the money and soon they'll have the network.

[G2 and Desire Z General] leetpriest:
This is true. I had to leave t-mobile for ATT about a year ago after being a customer for 8 years because the new job I got required me to use a work provided phone. I got to pick the phone (the samsuck Craptivate Galaxy S was my choice) but had to use ATT. I didn't want to carry 2 phones around. After 5 returned phones due to manufacturer defect, I had enough and decided to go back to tmobile and actually forward my work phone to my personal G2. I hated the way AT&T treated me.

So AT&T will rot in hell, they aren't getting my business.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jwgizmo:
Do you kiss your mother with a mouth like that. :eek:

looks as if you spend a lot of time at fast food establishments.

WE HAVE CHOICES and DECISIONS.

Anyone here think all this dialog is going to make a difference? We are way too low in the pecking order to bring this to a close. Furthermore, WE don't have the power to stop it either. I feel the BEST decision is for us all to figure how WE can make a difference in the final decision.

1) We looked at service, some say one company is better than another.

2) Hardware selection, some are more to the left than the right.

3) Some don't even want to deal with a specific carrier.

The bottom line is WE need to ban together and figure whats best for us (T-Mo customers) as a group, and there are lots of us. -force whatever carrier we decide to go with, to do us right.

DEMAND better rates as a new, merger or band wagon jumper.

DEMAND the same superb customer

care

.

Remember, power in numbers rule.

If I was to put the big 3 in order?

1 AT&T - GSM technology, T-Mo towers (longer range/coverage)

2 SPRINT -because Verizon is old technology

3 VERIZON - Out dated

I have been with all except AT&T - I give them the 1 up because of the newer technology. I have a Verizon work cellphone, and yes it works anywhere, but its a phone only. My HD2 on T-Mo has run WINMO 6.5, and now rooted to Android FROYO 2.2.1, AND it's GSM, and have NO PROBLEMS with calls, service, or selection of handsets. I was with Sprint for 5 years and my wife for 9. Prior to that I had SunCom, who I think was taken over by AT&T (correct me if i am wrong).

So instead of using off color words, and throwing out words that MOST of us would not use at home, lets refocus on what we can do as a group.

:confused::confused:ANY TAKERS :confused::confused:

Oh, and leetpriest, you forgot Tyson & Smithfield foods - They run just about EVERYTHING you put in that dirty mouth.

Watch the movie FOOD INC. - You might just stop eating all together

Lastly, what would AT&T do if NONE of the T-MO customers came over????

DEMAND, DEMAND, DEMAND
[G2 and Desire Z General] jwgizmo:

Okay people, it seems that AT&T appears to be working with us for the moment.

Take a look at TmoNews. if I may quote "Ralph de la Vega at CTIA 2011 T-Mobile will keep it’s existing pricing structure."

Go there and read it for yourself.

[G2 and Desire Z General] hkbladelawhk:
Hmm, So I've officially looked at all three carriers to determine their stand. This is what I've come up with:

SPRINT:

Pros: Unlimited data stand, last one to keep it.

Cons: Sinking ship, more expensive than Verizon, and their phones suck, big lack of Android, CDMA.

VERIZON:

Pros: Cheaper of the three (ironic eh), Android (HTC Thunderbolt), LTE, and better coverage.

Cons: Moving to tiered data (supposedly), CDMA

ATT:

Pros: The Engulfment of T-Mobile should give them more Android phones than the rest (I've paid enough for Android apps, I'm staying with Android), GSM, Service areas should drastically improve from what they had, hopefully network will improve too.

Cons: Overpriced ($45 a month for 4gigs is highway robbery, though at current I'm purposely only using 2g due to battery life), crap customer service (going off what I've read).

Bottom Line: Verizon is what I was looking at for a replacement, but after hearing about the new tiered pricing, I'm not too happy about that as that was my Verizon kicker. Though hopefully it's cheaper than ATT (with more data), and if that's the case then I might lean a bit more towards them. At this point, I'm still in contract until February 2012, though the other two lines I have are up in 3 months. I guess I'll just have to stay put and watch the markets. Not much I can do at this point, I'd hate to jump ship and have ATT do a 360, not likely, but the others could become worse. Only time will tell at this point.

TMO Customer w/o contract

I've been a TMO (Voicesteam) customer for approximately 18 years. I've been off contract for longer than 7 yrs and with my loyalty plan (offered by TMO to lower my bill) have enjoyed watching and listening to all the chatter from Verizon, Sprint and AT&T customers over their various service issues and costs over time.

My dilemma is whether or not to voluntarily sign a two year contract with TMO with the intention of "locking in" any plan when the switch to AT&T takes place.

Without a contract, they may not offer me squat....

after 3 years with t-mobile i got sick of the service ( not the customer service #1 for sure ) crappy cell service , now i am with at&t unlimited internet (no cap)(@ 30 bucks) unlimited calls unlimited txt on my samsung captivate and the phone actually ring in the house

final thoughts its always good to have competition at least for us...and for sure

more cell power with a few extra towers

if not at&t then sprint .
[G2 and Desire Z General] darksulfur5:
F you AT&T

Buzz off, I left you after 2 (painful years) for a reason. Ive been with T-Mobile for 4 years now. Great coverage in NYC and their customer service is second to none. I dont want to trade great customer service, more carrier choices, better phones and affordable prices for more coverage in hillbilly areas that no one cares about. THIS IS BAD FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC, NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT IT.

This wouldn't be so terrible if all that it meant was that network coverage was improved, but I know that's not going to be the case. I was with AT&T for years. I started with AT&T which then turned into Cingular and then back to AT&T. This past February I jumped ship to TMobile since their plans were much better than AT&T and now I might be an AT&T customer again?!

There's actually a fair amount of finance blogs on sites like Forbes that detail exactly why this buy-out should be stopped by federal regulations. Being the #1 cellular provider in the US would not teach AT&T that it's wrong to price gouge their customers. I also highly doubt that Verizon would lower their rates substantially enough to make it worth the switch, and their customer support is just as terrible as AT&T's.

Advice?

Okay. so after hearing about this, I've started my research. I'm debating on switching to Verizon ASAP (before their tiered data hits), but with some pros and cons.

Switch Now:

Pros:

-New Thunderbolt :-P

-Unlimited Data *grandfathered in when they lose it*

-LTE

-Better coverage areas in USA.

Cons:

-CDMA, good in the US, pointless everywhere else (I don't travel that much, so this is neutral).

-I'd pay $200 early term (though I can make that up by selling my MT4G)

-I'd have to start on an indiv plan till the iPhone 5 comes out and I can get my family over (to save money in the end, but I'd pay more now)

-If the ATT deal falls through, or somehow ATT works with us on keeping out unlimited data contracts as long as we don't change, then I just spent extra $$ for no reason

Switch Later (or don't switch at all)

Pros:

-Potentially saves me money

-I get to use GSM for now

-I currently have unlimited data

-Changed may not be anywhere in the near future, or immediate changes could fall through.

-T-Mobile customer service

Cons:

-If ATT really does screw us all out of our unlimited data plans in the future, I could have lost the chance to jump on Verizon's and be grandfathered in.

-ATT sucks ( :-) )

Not 100% accurate on which has more pros or cons, but just some ideas.

Whatcha all think? Pay the early term and jump onto Verizon while I can?
