To clarify, they have not yet purchased them. They will if regulators (RIP Nate Dogg) approve the merge.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Bounty44:
+1 on the nate dogg ref.... and correct it is expected to take the next 12 months, but I very much doubt there will be any regulatory issues involved in the purchase.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] erktheerk:
BOOOOOOO I say. I hate AT&T and all their IPhone loving zombie customers. My 12 year old T-Mobile account (formally voicestream before the name change) will be cancelled the hour the acquisition goes through. AT&T will not see one red cent of my money.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Whoareyou:
What I hope, is that AT&T updates our rom to Sense (normal sense) not Espresso/mySense
[myTouch 3G Slide General] guitarist5122:
I will move to sprint if at&t pulls the same BS they do with their customers.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Bounty44:
From what I understand, AT&T is planning to honor any contracts including pricing that are made before the merger is complete, but I do have a feeling pricing will eventually increase for plans, and somehow AT&T will find a way to cap our unlimited data plans as they do with their customers :mad:
[myTouch 3G Slide General] txdeathray:
This is what I got off of T-Mobile's website:

An agreement was announced under which AT&T will acquire T-Mobile USA. The agreement is the first step in a process that, including regulatory approvals, is expected to be completed in approximately 12 months. Until then, we remain a separate company and continue to operate independently.

We know our customers, business partners and others may have many questions.

Here is some more information:

Will my service change?

There is no change in your service and we remain committed to ensuring you have the best experience possible experience using your T-Mobile USA products and services.

Will I now be billed by AT&T?

No, your billing remains exactly the same. T-Mobile USA continues to operate as an independent company. As always, you would receive advance notice to any changes to your services.

Why is T-Mobile USA doing this?

Bringing together these two world-class businesses will create significant benefits for customers. The merger will ensure the deployment of a robust 4G LTE network to 95% of the U.S. population, something neither company would achieve on its own. Also, because of our compatible networks and spectrum, the customers of T-Mobile USA and AT&T will experience improved voice and data service almost immediately after the networks are integrated.

Will T-Mobile USA’s quality be reduced?

No. In fact, the combination of AT&T and T-Mobile USA will offer an even stronger service to customers. Until the acquisition is closed, we will work hard to maintain our position as the value leader with America’s largest 4G network.

If the acquisition closes, will I still be able to use my T-Mobile USA phone?

Yes. Your T-Mobile USA device will operate the same in the future as it does today.

Should I wait to sign-up with T-Mobile USA or upgrade my phone?

No, T-Mobile USA offers the latest wireless devices that are affordable on America’s Largest 4G Network and the combination of AT&T and T-Mobile USA will mean even stronger service for our customers. Now is a great time to be a T-Mobile customer.

Is T-Mobile USA getting the iPhone?

T-Mobile USA remains an independent company. The acquisition is expected to be completed in approximately 12 months. We do not offer the iPhone. We offer cutting edge devices like the Samsung Galaxy S 4G and coming soon our new Sidekick 4G.

Will my rate plan change because of the acquisition?

We will honor all contracted plans that are entered into before the change of ownership.

Where can I express my opinion on this?

T-Mobile customers can utilize the company's online Forums.

This has totally crushed my day, I love tmobile and their customer service. This sucks big balls
[myTouch 3G Slide General] krapt0:
Well the day the merger happens I will be leaving. F*** At&T and their bull**** rate increases and data caps. I would rather have a soup can and string to make my calls.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] skullkandy:
yup. This is why I was with t-mo they were the only cell company that had even a tiny bit of customer service and weren't just reaming their customers on data.

I guess there goes that. we live in a time when businesses have realized that if they all screw their customers there's no one for you to leave them for that would be better.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] zippa713:
(insert starwars deathstar theme song)

After a few years of being AT&T we all will be able to use the iphone...

At first the primary target is 4G LTE, when AT&T-mobile finish that project they are going to work on getting everyone on the same frequency. But we are talking years before we all benefit from greater coverage on 2-3G towers... but hey keep in mind T-mobile fans, Our cheap ass rate plans with unlimited data caps WILL be grandfathered! so hang tight we will be fine when the empire takes over! If you already have AT&T you should switch now get the better plans and then in a years time youre back with AT&T! LONG LIVE THE REBELLION!

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arj154:
Hi

My phone is starting to get the dreaded connection problem with the usb port. Currently I have to find an angle where it will actually charge it. Its getting quite annoying now and I noticed that its a common issue and its generally due to poor soldering. I was wondering whether its possible to fix it yourself as my phone has a number of cosmetic blemish's which will cause SE to ***** about how its my fault etc. As my lecturer would say they are "ensuring that the **** falls on someone elses head". Anyway it would be handy if someone could highlight where to solder exactly by just circling it in a set of pictures. Here is a disassembly guide you could use.

Thanks for any responses and I'm sorry if this has been posted before.

n.b. my lecturer was talking about ensuring your code has enough validation etc to ensure that the program doesn't fail as a result of poor programming. I realise that the comment may seem quite dodgy out of context when he was describing defensive programming.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkgoth678:
This post might not be much help, but I suppose it'll get the gears turning.

Well, I took a look at it and, at least in my X10, I have some red looking hardened glue blocking the connections to the main board of my USB port, so I can't be very specific here. Though, I imagine you'd have to take this glue out and there should be probably 2 connectors that link it to the main board.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] ansar.ath.gr:
Dear forum members,

In the following A, B, C and D sections is described the flashing process

of the NoDo unbranded ROM: RUU_Schubert_TMOUS_2.20.841.02_Radio_5.65.09.11a_22.44.50.15_NoDo

Also, anyone have a mirror for the second rom yet? As rapidshare failed once and made me waste a second download (having to wait 55 mins).

*edit* I'm getting error 226 (Flash Write) when flashing the first rom at about 95% through. Wasnt sure this was the error you were referencing as you mentioned error270. And when I try to flash the second rom I get invalid model id. I imagine thats because the first flash didn't work properly.

Ok. So the first rom installed properly after the reupload. But, still getting the invalid model id error upon trying to install the second rom.

Also is there any way you can provide other mirrors for the files? Having to wait 40+ mins to download a second file is annoying. Especially when there was a problem with the first download making it useless.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] ecyoral:
I got an error too

after 1%, please fix asap.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] StylesC2:
Same here now. Now I have to wait another 40 mins to re-download fixed file once available.
[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] cpimentel:
Can we flash other ROMS after this one?

Hi ansar.

After we sucessfull flash this new ROM, will it be unbranded, right?

So, would we be able to flash another ROM, like the ASIA one?

Regards and great work, I'm just waiting for a fix for the 2nd ROM and will flash it.

[HTC Inspire 4G] darkbluexplorer:
I Know there are a lot of threads for Game Pad Controllers out there what i am wondering is if any of you have one that you use for the Inspire. I am looking to get one and while there is not much selection for android bluetooth game pads i want one to work with the emulators (FPse, N64oid, TigerNES, SNesoid, ect). So how about it any of you have any experience in this?

I have found out that you can use a Zeemote with android but i don't know if it works with inspire. i am looking for something more along the lines of a ps2/3 style setup in a controller cause that is very easy to hold for many hours on end.

UPDATE: I have purchased a zeemote to try will update when I receive and test it out. :)

UPDATE2: Have received said js1 joystick. Seems to work so far. Am going to fiddle with this and write a review!

MOD: I probably need to move this to the accessories threads now. Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] darkbluexplorer:
WOOHOO!! it does work. I am using a Zeemote JS1 On the HTC Inspire 4g without Root. So far so good! I have used it with FPse, SNesoid and Tiger NES so far. Will test it out with the N64oid this afternoon! Using a free software that connects via bluetooth called Bluez IME software to connect. It was fairly simple just following the instructions. Will try and post videos when i get my hands on a camcorder.

[HTC Inspire 4G] darkbluexplorer:
There are several that use Wii controller but if you have HTC.sense it won't work (ie stock Rom) HTC didn't include hid devices in their Bluetooth driver/stack. So unless you root you can't use a Wii controller. Not that I have found out. The guy that wrote the driver I mentioned above is working on getting Wii controller working with his driver. At that point it would be a great thing to have if u use your phone for games!
[HTC Inspire 4G] thirru:
Some Chinese guy had remodified a PS1 controller which he is selling on Taobao (kinda like a Chinese ebay) for about 25 USD. I got myself one about a week ago and am working at the moment with the bluez-ime developer to get it working on Android. It works so far with FPse, which you can see on the crappy video that I just took. Maybe I should start exporting these controllers ;-)

I recently damaged and then repaired my G2's screen. Since repairing and reassembling the phone my data has not been working, although I can make calls, receive texts and use wifi just fine. Is there a specific component which could have been damaged or perhaps not locked back in properly?

I've already went to my service provider, Wind Canada, to replace the sim card, that didn't fix the problem either. Any help would be appreciated! Not having data defeats the purpose of having a smartphone.

I definitely think the FCC will prevent it from happening, it would create a GSM monopoly in the US.
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
why would it matter if it was a gsm monopoly? there are still other carriers regardless, so i dont see it as being a monopoly. you can still buy gsm devices from anywhere and pop yuour sim card in and go if thats what the big deal about gsm is all about.
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
The problem with a GSM monopoly (or any monopoly really) is that it prevents competition, for instance people who travel frequently and therefore need a GSM handset are left with only one real option (sure there are Verizon and Sprint world phones but that is besides the point)
[Epic 4G General] Jayavarman:
I blame T-Mobile Girl.
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
how does only having one gsm provider in the us prevent competition? there are still several other cell providers in the u.s. the reason you state one needs a gsm handset would be to be able to use it while traveling (im assuming you mean abroad) where you would use a local sim card any way. if your using att's minutes to talk over seas, you can do that with sprint and verizon too. they all have international roaming. not being able to use a phone overseas is not related at all to being a monopoly.
[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
He's talking about in the broad sense. You had a choice in between AT&T and Tmobile which didn't have the best phones but had fair prices. Now that they're merged people are stuck with the high priced cheap phones without anyother choice for GSM carriers.

This smells of a monopoly. 3 real major wireless carriers left in the US. It would be like the oil industry. They dont have to buy each other up. They can raise the prices on everyone now and who you going to complain to. They can also slow progress on any new developments in the wireless phone industry. Has anyone given this any thought. Just look at the history of all industry in the United States. There have been monopolies and just a couple of companies left in this country. They always do what they wanted to the consumer. :mad:

This is kinda like Intel and AMD. They're the only two major CPU players left. Now if AMD dies off then we'd all be screwed but I doubt it'll ever happen since AMD always have few aces up their sleeve.

Now AT&T bought out T-Mobile will be the only GSM player in this country but this time it's a little different. Far as FCC and SEC are concerned it's not monopoly. We still have choices of different carriers such as AT&T, Verizon and Sprint. I know the latter two don't offer GSM but it doesn't matter much since GSM will eventually be going away and replaced with new standards in a few short years anyway.

Now with so many ticked off T-Mobile users I wouldn't be surprised they will switch to either Verizon or Sprint soon. So basically AT&T just wasted a pileload of cash for nothing. Great business sense they've made. So instead of spending money on improving their network they just buy out the competiton.

AT&T's way of doing things belong in the dinosaurs age and we all know what happened to that.
