They are required to give you a certain level of service and if they can't provide it then they violate the contract.

They will waive it.
[EVO 4G General] 4redstars:
I knew how poorly it was going to go but I figured I was going to call anyway.

First person told me there were no problems with their towers and asked about hardware replacement. I said no, when I'm in areas that I get a good signal my phone works fine...2nd person said there were problems (i knew it) and that they are working on it. He also mentioned possibly letting me out ETF free.

I really don't want to go that route though, I just want the service I was getting to come back, I loved Sprint's service when it's working. I don't want to ditch the carrier just because of two bad months but nobody has confirmed anything on it getting any better, which I know they can't.
[EVO 4G General] Hrshycro:
I called retentions awhile back, stated that tech support says the area is fine and working as it should, I said, no, it isn't and it hasn't been for months...I went to some local Sprint stores and asked the employees there, which informed me that, yes, the towers have been stuck in the middle of being upgraded for 6+ months now because Qwest hasn't installed the new T1 lines yet. All the lady in retentions would say was Okay and act dumb. I guess I could keep trying.
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
It costs over $200 to file a suit in small claims court here in Miami-Dade county, so I'd look into that before digging any deeper into this. I doubt Sprint will send out a lawyer to contest a $200 case, but it may cost you as much as the ETF itself would just to TRY and get out of it this way.

Just continue to call and complain. Eventually, you will come across an employee who will help you.
[EVO 4G General] 4redstars:
I hope they are putting in like 30 T1 lines!
[EVO 4G General] wiltok:
The Sprint CS rep told me that there was a notation associated with my area 'users may experience slower data speeds'. They are acknowledging there is a problem - and they aren't kidding! It doesn't take much bandwidth to download a voicemail. Data speeds are non existent.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Agreed which is why they are violating the contract. Thus no ETF
[EVO 4G General] wiltok:
OP - here. A previous poster was correct - looks like it costs $120 to file a small claims suit and i would also have to pay an appearance fee of $176. That ain't gonna work! Oh well - have to see what Sprint will do for me...
[EVO 4G General] bkrodgers:
What's hilarious about that is that a T1 line only has capacity to serve a single customer with a really good 3G speed (1.5Mbps), or two with a so-so speed (750 Mbps). My cable modem equals TWELVE T1 lines. So if they're waiting for T1 lines to be installed to the tower, that explains a LOT.

Or the reps just don't have a clue what they're talking about. That's probably more likely.
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
Yea, I knew it. Once you take someone to small claims court, you usually end up suing for court costs, too. However, you have to pay the charges up front and you could still lose and end up having to pay the ETF anyway.
[EVO 4G General] r916:
Call them or email them (or chat) and tell them you want a credit on your bill (even for now) they gave me $50 off my bill just for calling them and bugging them lol I also asked for credit off my bill.

Also just use a verizon prl and they will give you the boot.
[EVO 4G General] clamknuckle:
No, they are not. It's in the contract. Service is not guarenteed.
[EVO 4G General] shadowhawk2020:
Just use the verizon roaming trick and use large amounts of data for a few months.
[EVO 4G General] deltantor:
(IANAL)

Alright, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but DO NOT take them to court. There is a section in the Sprint PCS Terms and Conditions of Service (that you signed) specifically stating that you agree that all disputes will not be taken to court but arbitrated. If you take them to court they will show that you agreed not to, judge will drop the case, and you will be liable for both your court fees as well as Sprint's (You are not liable for Sprint's arbitration fees though if you go that route). Quoting all relevant parts of the T&C now. There is an exception to that for small claims court, but you would definitely lose against Sprint and still have to pay their court fees.

It is almost always the better route to fight with them AND SEND THEM WRITTEN NOTICE OF YOUR DISPUTE until they let you out of contract. Also STOP using the phone during the dispute that way you can get them to waive any monthly bills AFTER the written notice of dispute.
[EVO 4G General] Hrshycro:
I know, that's what I was thinking. but people at both sprint stores said T1 lines. Qwest is expanding their fiber, but its slow, which might be why the towers are slow...they have both boxes, the new and old ones running on the t1 lines that used to just do the old lines.

Hey !

Now first of all - great Forums. I really enjoy reading this Site and love the work of XDA`s. Thank you !

Okay, I`ve got a question : I`ve seen many preview Videos and reviews of the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play. In many of them I saw this awesome original PSP Live Wallpapers, I always wanted to have before.

I musn`nt post links cause`I`m a new User so please view my profile and view one of the two Live Wallpapers i mean at my homepage url. Video at (01:12)

So my question is : Is it possible to extract the APK of this live wallpaper or do ANYTHING to put this thing on my X10 (Arc soon) ? or do we have to wait until it`s rooted ? (or is it already?)

Thank you very much for ANY help !

I'm trying to setup Voice on CM7, and I'm told I need to call a number. However when I dial it, I get no options, and then it just hangs up. Any ideas? Am I being stupid? Thanks for the help!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
That's all its supposed to do. After it hangs up, if you hit the back button, it should take you back to the GV setup, so you can then hit configure, and proceed with the setup.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
You did it correctly. After you dial the number, you may hear an electronic sound of some sort and then it will hang up. That's it. You ahould be set to have Google Voice set to be your voicemail service. Go to Menu-Settings-Call and you should see Google Voice listed as your Voicemail service. The menus may be a tad different with CM7, by the way.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shiltz:
I just bought a Verizon Galaxy Tab and and did the permanent rooted with z4root, the root seemed to take fine, I have superuser access, other root required apps like adfree work, etc, however when I try to backup the ROM with ROM Manager when it reboots into recover mode a bunch of options including backup are missing, the only options I have are

reboot system now

apply sdcard:update.zip

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

what it looks like is it's rebooting into the standard android/samsung recovery not the clockwork mod one, does anyone know why it would be doing this? I never had any problems like this when I backed up my EVO.

Does any know of any apps that will allow for the running of java web application?

Cheers!!!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fwelland:
By 'java web' apps i'll assume you mean applets. Short answer: don't think so. The java like stuff 'in' android is not like the java found on desktops and such. Android java lacks a bunch of libs and stuff that provide an environment for applets to run in.

There is some legal tusseling between google and oracle that is loosely related to this.

If someone does come up with some sort of applet container for android, I'd be mildly interested in it.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eksellent:
I have owned my Samsung Captivate for ~6 months. I constantly have problems with internet in School. I always have 0 or 1 bar in class and in bathrooms. This is a major problem for me, the consumer.

I am using the Serendipity 6.3 and the hardcore speedmod kernel. I am on AT&T. I live in North New Jersey.

Someone told me 1900 doesnt penatrate walls as well as 850 so I switched my modem to I9000UGJL2 (Froyo) found at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=876391

This seems to have improved my internet connection speed, but I still seem to not have any internet and 0 to 1 bars in most class rooms and bathrooms.

When I get really close to the Window my bars go up and internet is there again and when I go outside I am also able to access sites again.

Because of this I am planning on switching to either Sprint of Verizon. I don't want to switch to the Evo 4g considering the Captivate Hardware surpasses the Evo 4g's. I have talked to a few friends and I am aware both Sprint and Verizon phones have internet in my school. My friend went on multiple websites in front of me on his droid on the Verizon network while I was not able to.

Any suggestions?

Please Help! Thanks.

It may be worth completely removing all traces of HTC Sync and drivers (purge properly and manually), use USB on other side of PC (so if using front ports, use rear) and reinstalling software.

but my question is, why does this keep happening and is there a way to stop it?

It's because you shouldn't backup and restore apps across different roms. It will cause compability issues ie force closes.

MyBackup gives this issue sometimes. Try to restore your backup once again. Remember to restart your phone right away (even 3 secs delay gives you the same error) after the backup is finished. Try to import apps only.
