yeah yeah, i know. i actually still love sprint, just a little pissed at them today. specifically today. i'll get over it. ;)
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
yeah it sucks but you can always ask for a reset if you already had it

[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
But they have LTE and and and that excuses it. :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] kingdazy:
just did, they said no. ****ers. ;)

apparently I didn't ask soon enough (april 1st cutoff). although the nice chat lady DID offer me the retention dept. #. I think she was trying to hint at something....
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
You forgot more coverage and overall better service.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
Yeah that only retentions can reset

[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
Lol depends, Verizon sucks where I live. Surprised you're still with Sprint, thought you would have gotten the tbolt.

Sent from my spaceship!
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
"better overall service" is an opinion

Coverage? Yeah.

Does that make it right for them to bend me over and thrust EVERYTIME they get a chance?
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
Not as surprised to see a Sprint employee starting threads like this. BTW, I'm eventually going to switch my AT&T iPhone 4 to a Verizon iPhone 5. I may or may not stick around just to get another Nexus phone.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Him being a Sprint employee excuses Verizon shoving it in their customers' asses raw on a constant basis?
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
/cough bull**** had and engineer tell me my area was being throttled because of tower troubles with no ETA of a fix !

now im sure you will come back with a 27 page long post stating how i'm wrong but he David was his name and this was told me at 4:45 pm

take it for what its worth
[EVO 4G General] kingdazy:
do you, perhaps, work in retentions? ;) can i suck up? (I jest)
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
I would caution what someone via the phone or even in the store tells you, they tend to not know what an ETF or MSL is and tend to think that too many apps on your device slows down the internet. ;)

I wouldn't doubt that, but you're talking about a temporary occurrence, during an outage and while they upgrade the network, not a permanent policy.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
Sprint doesn't throttle phones.

Sent from my spaceship!
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
this has been going on for about 6 months .... and counting :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
Lol just call in.

[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
better tell your engineers to stop telling people that then lol :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
I have friends that work for every carrier, guess who is their provider? Sprint.

Sent from my spaceship!
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
That engineer is mistaken, Sprint doesn't throttle phones. Weve ben over this already

Sent from my spaceship!
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
ok sure :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
You're right, Sprint is exempt from independent network testing and the other carriers jumping on them for lying. :rolleyes:

Just Sprint though, man.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
I find it funny you're the only Sprint customer being throttled

Sent from my spaceship!
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
never said i was the only one :rolleyes: i said the engineer said my area his exact words. my speeds are been sub 56k for about 6 month David said the towers in my area was "overloaded" and has been for about 7 months and they ( sprint )have been throttling the area till the towers are fixed. i ask if there was an eta .. he said not at this time .

im not going to argue about this! i KNOW what i was told and what i have dealt with for the past 6 months on 3 phones
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
At any rate, another kick in the balls to customer service.
[EVO 4G General] cnstarz:
so you're saying they throttled the speed in your area while they try to troubleshoot and fix a problem? and you're upset that they're throttling?

that's like taking you car in to get the engine replaced, but demanding that you still want to be able to drive the car while they're replacing the engine.

you're an idiot. gtfo.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Eh, I get what you're saying but the issue has existed for long enough to justify being a little upset.

It's been going on 6.5 weeks here.

[Course I DID get my ETF permanently waived, just in case, my bill cut in half, AND a free Airave]
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
wish i new how you did that lol

see when im at home my speeds are great im on my wifi its every place else that i have trouble :(
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Yeah, it's not enjoyable.

And I did that by keeping records of my bandwidth tests, having notes on the account showing I have the issue [and have had it 6 weeks], constantly calling back and being firm with my dissatisfaction for the first time in 9 years of service.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
My speeds are sub 10k at my job. I understand.

[EVO 4G General] zikronix:
In arizona sprint is in the process of upgrading the carriers on the towers. and a central switch in phoenix this month. I just spent the past week working with sprint rf, and network engineers going site to site and tower to tower in Casa Grande detailing all the information. Sprint has more than one tower that sits on city property. I work in IT and I assure you I watched the tech adjust the settings on the tower...speed improved, but he had to throttle it back due to the towers condidtion, (over sub'd). So yes they do throttle, however with that being said thats why they are adding additional carriers to those towers.

This is what happens when your organization has 300+ lines and it becomes a public safety issue when our emergency vehicles cannont communicate promptly. Things have a tendancy to get done....and for the record. Sprint has the best service in cg until the data issue.
[EVO 4G General] heygrl:
Big buisness is always a catalyst for any company.. Sprint has contracts in that area but it goes to show you how they've underinvested in their network capacity.

Sprint is doing the same anti-consumer BS so I don't get what the OP is getting at.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eunkipark92:
Hi I am asking for help.

I go through alots of phones.

in last six month. I had iPhone 3gs to vibrant to g2 to nexus one to mytouch 4g and back to vibrant.

When I had g2 I sold of right away because of the hinge making screen wobbled even with keyboard closed. Kinda wish kept the g2 instead of getting nexus one.

Anyways I have a offer of like brand new g2 if I add cash 50 on top of my vibrant.

My vibrant is a month old and I'm inculding everything plus + otterbox and another case I got.

Should I do it?

How is the hinge holding up? Does it get loose even more?

I don't care about loose hinge but i really don't like screen wobbling around.

I heard you can replace the spring and make it sturdier. Is it hard to do it?

If this offended anyone in anyway I'm sorry.:p

feeling generous? buy me some redbulls by clicking donate button!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tackleberry:
Been using a g2 from a mt4g for over a month now and loving it. I like the mt4g for its ram and screen but overall I prefer the Hardware keyboard more than the larger screen.

sent from the rooty tooty fresh and fruity cm7 nighly powered G2
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eunkipark92:
Mytouch 4g screen is a lottery. Half of the units comes with washes out screen. Took me 5 exchange to get a new one then I just ended up selling it and getting the vibrant again.. but I miss the feel of hardware on HTC.

This will be my last Samsung phone unless its nexus s.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antbankz:
g2

id get the g2 or hold out cuz theres some pretty badass phones coming out in the second quarter,had it a few months now and couldnt be happier only thing it truely lacks is a front facing camera:( but standing in front of a mirrior will do the trick if you really rely on vid calls! hope this helps
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KiNG OMaR:
Did the hinge fix myself, after you get over voiding your warranty physically it's not so bad ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spovat:
have had my g2 for almost 6 months and the hinge is holding up great. never a problem with it and the phone still feels as solid as ever. it's one amazing device =)

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] puravida82:
I'm also a 6mo G2 user. Love it! Hinge has never given me trouble. I wish the keyboard wasn't there (swype FTW!), but the rest of the phone more than makes up for it =)
[Nook Color General] fprice02:
Anyone else running into this? Its almost like after a installing a nandroid backup. After reboot it just says problems loading widget. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] darckreign1984:
our sgs think our battery its empty at 3,7v or 3,68.

if we could change the limit for the battery is considered empty, somewhere in the 3.1 to 3 V, thinking how much could keep a battery, the phone started.

if the battery is not empty exaggerated, I believe it can be used without problems.

Sony Ericsson uses batteries to 3.2 somewhere if I remember well.

I dont know how I could do something like that, that's why I posted here this idea.

from here http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries

"Power loss through Protection Circuit

Besides common aging, a Li-ion battery can also fail because of undercharge. This occurs if a Li-ion pack is stored in a discharged condition. Self-discharge gradually lowers the voltage of the already discharged battery and the protection circuit cuts off between 2.20 and 2.90V/cell. Some chargers and battery analyzers (including those from Cadex) provide a wake-up feature, or “boost,” to re-energize and recharge these seemingly dead Li-ion batteries."
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xenos126:
If v can do the cut off to 3.5v we.will gain roughly 35% more life. But ib think it will take 5hrs for a full change
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Rixsta:
Its a lipo battery that is the saftey cutoff point...same as RC cars...going to low will kill your battery...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] darckreign1984:
not too low

not to low, low enoug to have long battery life.

for charge dont matter:D 2,5 ore to 4. i dont think wil be 5
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Jility:
good idea....do it°!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Vogie:
I'm ready to test it, but how we can change limitation of battery ?

Explain your idea.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] aNbeRRy:
Yes, could you explain more ? Do you know how to do it ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Vo1:
I have few ideas on battery issue too::D

1)

2) real rocket for your galaxy:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] schiphol:
Great idea but a moot one at the same time I'm afraid. No one knows more abt batteries than Koreans. They live for them. If this limit could have been set lower it would be lower. Also I have never heard of battery firmware being flashable through a phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] darckreign1984:
.

sony ericsson use this trick to have longer battery life, anyway we dont use a battery 2 years.

i dont now how to implement this trick.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] markdj57:
I have the battery monitor app and in stock XXJVK, at 01% the battery is between 3.4 and 3.5 volts.

Fully charged is 4.18 volts or thereabouts but this falls fairly quickly to 4.0 volts which is where the battery stats need to be accurate to show true percentage and not just jump down to 80%.

Fully charged for me takes about 3 hours but I charge all my batteries (three :-) using a separate charger and not in the phone itself.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alelas:
+1.

Swyped from another GALAXY
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Philbert123:
It's not linear. It falls rapidly at lower voltage. You would gain about 5% I think...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] darckreign1984:
next time

i have a multimeter, next time i verify de power of my battery.(i am surre it not 3.4-3.5v)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] markdj57:
Just use the battery monitor app...

But feel free to use a multimeter if you want.
