while i dont agree with alot of what you said, tmobile does has THE worst marketing stategy(not even sure if its a strategy). They pretty much have no advertisment when the NBA season is over(i.e.Tmobile Halftime Show, etc.) I love tmobile for the great price, customer service and they really do have some good phones. But marketing is non-existent and they usually try to push low-end to mid-range devices. Like ive read that they arnt getting the SGS2? if thats true, shame on tmobile.
[HTC Sensation] setzer715:
Your an idiot.

Other than the Atrix and Evo3D NONE of those phone compare to the Sensation. Why don't you return you phone and go troll somewhere else and quit trying to stir up crap in the forum.

Mod's, PLEASE close this useless crap thread.

One more thing, T-Mobile pioneered Android. They had 5 Android phone before a single other US carrier carried them. Again, an idiot.

They started it and now there in dead ****ing last dip**** thats why at& t bought there ass up. Tmobile broke that's why they don't have good products. Sensation is not all the ground breaking feel the same as a single core phone so stop that mess.

[HTC Sensation] EtherealRemnant:
T-Mobile isn't getting the SGSII, they're getting a better device - the Hercules.

As has been pointed out, a lot of the phones on T-Mobile are quite capable devices and T-Mo was the pioneer of our beloved Android.

T-Mobile leaves something to be desired in terms of device commercials but I've seen commercials for the Sensation AND the G2x (before it was pulled) far more than any other device besides the Droid Charge.

The G2x is an amazing phone - LG just needs to fix a few issues that may be software or may be hardware. It still beats the pants off the crappy ass Atrix.

It doesn't compete with Exynos, no, but no American carrier has a Samsung Exynos device at the moment and rumors point that in America we may get Tegra 2 instead of Exynos so its a moot point.

I have a G2x and a Sensation. The G2x spanks the Sensation on performance but there is significant device lag that is random, sometimes including freezing, which is unacceptable and the reboot issue is a big problem. When it works though, the G2x is the phone to beat. Hell mine overclocks to 1.55GHz with a 200mV undervolt and barely gets warm. In Mandro (one of the only dual-core speed tests), it actually beats the Exynos by a good 15%. The Exynos overclocks as well, however, and lets not forget that the Sensation, having a Qualcomm chip, will most likely overclock at least 50% if not higher as well.

Quit trolling. Go get a phone with a provider that locks down everything, charges more, has terrible coverage, and consistently breaks promises. I'm just fine with T-Mobile and I am sure many others are as well otherwise they'd be out of business.

Also, at&t made a BID for T-Mo. The merger is nowhere near actual approval and hopefully it can be delayed long enough for it to get denied based on wireless competition and at&t will have to suck it up for once and actually build THEIR OWN network rather than piggyback off everyone else's!!!

EDIT: And on your comment about the Epic versus the Vibrant. Note the internal storage difference between the two and then realize that Sprint made a huge trade off with their version just to have a hardware keyboard.
[HTC Sensation] bonebeatz1234:
From customer services reps i was told there bought and thing won't change until its finalized and my contact is over and like u said too many bugs in all there phones not just one all there phones .I'm hating i sold my vibrant running bionix 1.3 cuause it runs way better than this funky as I'm staring to doubt duel core sensation smh.
[HTC Sensation] EtherealRemnant:
Early launch bugs? Price you pay for having the latest and greatest. Everyone that knows technology knows that when it comes to wireless, you don't purchase the latest and greatest and expect to have no issues. Go cry somewhere else.
[HTC Sensation] tigerz0202:
I agree with most of this ,but the g2x sucks ,I had one for a couple days and I git rid of it ,I didn't think the camera was worth a crap and it just had too many issues ,ill take my sensation that works than a device that gets good quadrant scores ,which mean absolutely nothing , sense may be a little slower but its wayyyyyy better than vanilla android IMO,but good post though
[HTC Sensation] bonebeatz1234:
Latest and greatest my ass i had a g1 that ran for years i had a iphone that lasted for years i had ten faulty vibrants 2 g2s. T-Mobile was great at first now its evident there cutting corners. I can deal with a washed screen ,dead pixels, hell even a cracjed screen but if it reboots on its on and i lose my alarm clock setting that blows or if i try and make a call and it freeze sometimes and i have to pull battery and roboot . Missed calls when my phone didn't even ring . Everyone know in Chicago T-Mobile ain't nothing they fell off period.
[HTC Sensation] setzer715:
Now I know your just a trolling idiot. T-Mobile is NOT bought. AT&T has made an offer. Do you read the news or do you just write random BS that you pull out of your a**? AT&T CANNOT buy T-Mobile UNTIL DOJ and FCC approve it (estimated to happen March 2012 time frame). THEN it will take another 3 months to close the deal. So quit complaining that your stuck with T-Mobile, get off your Mommy's plan and get your own contract with whomever you want. Then, no more Sensation.

Oh, why don't you just take it back and get a Vibrant again? You have 14 days.
[HTC Sensation] setzer715:
If you think all of those phones you quoted in an earlier thread don't have bug issues too, your an even bigger idiot than I thought.

[HTC Sensation] EtherealRemnant:
Tigerz - I agree with you that the G2x has issues and I openly stated them in my post. Personally I think they are hardware since the Optimus suffers the same issues. That said, you can not deny the raw power that the Tegra 2 has in it. It came out what, October or November last year and it still trumps Qualcomm's "latest and greatest"?

One thing that I have to give LG though - they're pretty new to Android and they've managed to best HTC's first 10 or so attempts at Android on the first go-around... Hell HTC still can't get the MyTouch right... I returned the phone the day after I got it because every time the battery died it factory reset itself, even rooted with a custom ROM!

And setzer - I thanked you because I agree with you completely.

[HTC Sensation] digiholic:
IMHO T-Mobile beats the other US carriers for having the best Android devices. They bloat them the least, offer the most vanilla Google phones, and don't physically nerf them like AT&T or Verizon has been caught doing.

Go to another carrier OP if you hate T-Mobile so much. I'll stick with the best company for Android and for customer service.
[HTC Sensation] BarryH_GEG:
I've been with all four carriers. T-Mobile was the friendliest but the competency of who you were talking to varied wildly. Same thing with applying policies. They're back end systems for billing, shipping, and customer management are also the weakest of the four carriers.

I agree with "bloat them the least" but they bloat them the deepest. Wi-Fi Calling and the Account Management app did really strange things to the G2 and G2X I had. I'll give you the G2 being a good phone and "vanilla." The G2X, not so much. Devs playing with the code discovered it's the stock O2X ROM with the UI disabled. Far from vanilla and responsible for the ton of problems the G2X suffers.

The best carrier/phone combination? Buy an unmolested version of an international phone and use it on the carrier of your choice. You'll get no bloatware, h/w or s/w modifications, and will receive frequent updates from the manufacturer. I just did this and will never have a carrier subsidized phone again.
[HTC Sensation] digiholic:
You can get a dumb service rep from any company. I just always talk to "retentions" and those guys do wonders for you without you having to push. They reset upgrades, credit money back, let you add back in old grandfathered plans... they hook you up. All you need to do is ask them. Talked to them twice today and all the changes we made showed up immediately when I checked "My Account" app. I've also used their web site for much of my account/billing stuff and it's always worked flawlessly. I see no problems with their systems.

I considered staying off contract and just getting my phones retail... but carriers don't really offer any great rates anymore for off contract people. T-Mobiles plans are too cheap NOT to use subsidized pricing. I just switched us to the new family plan BUT grandfathered in our old $20 data plans. I now pay $170 for three lines with unlimited minutes, texts, and data. It's this cheap because of their base plans, and me being a loyal customer and them hooking me up a couple of ways. All that and I still save money with upgrades.

$57.33 per line unlimited everything (pre-tax and bs charges). Try getting that at another carrier. And it is unlimited since they don't actually soft cap their old data plans. They just send you the text and account notification about the soft cap, but never implement it.
[HTC Sensation] r3awak3n:
The sensation is to ne the best phone in the market, otherwise I would have not purchased it and stuck with my nexus.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Not sure if serious...T-Mobile has the best Android line up out of any of the major carriers at the moment.
[HTC Sensation] BarryH_GEG:
When I talked to retentions about the problems with my G2X (which I paid full price for) all I wanted was to be able exchange it for a Sensation when it came out. I'd already sold my G2 so didn't have an alternate phone. My remorse period for the G2X was up on 5/18 which means all I was asking for was to do an exchange later than my remorse period. They pretty much said tough luck. When I suggested I could change carriers as a solution they told me to do what I thought was best. I did. Just my experience with retentions vs. yours kind of proves my point (and I'm always polite).

I'm paying about $10 more per month than you are for unlimited everything also.
[HTC Sensation] Gtech145:
I find it odd that people here are complaining about the Sensation but using it to complain. No one forced you to buy it. The phone is great and once we get unlocked boot loader faster roms will be on the way with no build prop to cap HSPA+ at 10 down.
[HTC Sensation] :
For the record to reply to the troll...

I work for T-Mo and have for awhile. Worked at AT&T for a second last year.. I will say this much.

The merger most likely will not be approved from my perspective. We are in the midst of an employee loss as people are quitting because of fear of the unknown. I myself have pondered going back to work for AT&T or Walmart Wireless possibly. I have already talked to both.

I can say that we are not "BOUGHT" by any means and still are operating the same way as before.

The one thing I can say is we are changing A ALOT of policies to lock people in in case the merger happens which is really suspicious. We are getting rid of Flex pay in July and you will either have to sign up for service or go on prepaid.

This is all in attempt to stop the ever increasing churn we have. We attract a demographic of middle class families, small businesses and minorities. The latter by statistic is the reason for a lot of the churn. So we are bringing back deposit tiers and trying to go back to the way we were before Flex was introduced.

I personally feel the crunch as I have cashed in my 401k and cancelled my company insurance plan and bought my own plan because they changed the setup of our insurance that makes it cheaper to go just get your own plan outside the company.

They moved alot of full-timers to part time and got rid of some dept managers and things like that. It is definitely under construction. But I will say that "IF" the merger doesn't go through that they are ready to move forward stronger and more structured than ever.

We do neglect marketing devices. IDK why but I think its a money decision. The updates that are being held up i can honestly say (not supposed to say this but...) have to be paid for by us and that is the honest reason we are always last to finish in the updating device race.

Hope that sheds some needed light on all these subjects.

Blessings.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MERKJONES:
Hello - I'm running CM 7.1 RC (and have been running the previous nightly builds). I believed my battery was going bad as I was only getting a few hours (4-5 with minimal texting / calling) on a single charge. I used to get a good 12-16 hours on this battery. So I did a few things:

Wiped battery stats

Cycled battery a few times (3 times)

Tried different builds

All produced a failing battery result. It'll give me 2 hours and it'll be at 68%. I do listen to music for my 45 minute Train ride to work, and browse crap in TweetDeck or Pulse. But even when cutting the latter of these out, it still gives me 2 hours and it's down to yellow.

I'm not overclocked, I don't have any profiles changing speeds based on battery life. I have a Tasker profile to dim the screen when the battery gets too low. And I always use the lowest dimness setting. I don't have many applications running - right now it's Cell Standby at 45% of battery.

So, I went out and bought a new OEM battery. Smart idea eh? That new battery is doing the same thing as my other one. I haven't wiped and reloaded my device just yet - I hate doing it. But I think that's the last thing I can really do. I use two chargers too - I have the USB Cord -> Laptop at Work, and the wall charger at home.

Do you think my phone's hardware could be jacked? I don't want to deal with RMA with T-Mobile again - they LOST my device, and charged me $500 for it. Took them a month to find it again and give me my money back.

Any advice / speculation would be awesome.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MightyMuna:
Good day everyone,

I had an Xperia X10 T-Mobile Contract UK, I sold the phone yesterday on eBay. In the item description, I stated that it was locked to T-Mobile.

Anyway, the buyer received the phone today, and said when he inserts a SIM card into the phone, it displays that it needs an unlock code, I told him to try a T-Mobile sim card and he said it is still showing that it needs an unlock code.

How is this possible, it is a T-Mobile phone, therefore any T-Mobile UK sim card should work, my brother also has an X10 T-Mobile Contract phone and I just tried another T-Mobile sim card and it worked in his.

Now the seller is asking for £25 for an unlock code or full refund, I said I will issue a full refund if you send the phone and I receive it like how I gave it to you and I will issue a full refund, but he refused and said I should send the refund first or £25 for unlock code.

Seems to dodgy to me. What do you guys think?

I know I am asking too much but please help me out.

Thanks.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasei:
Something is not right here.....

Anyway proper refunding process is that a buyer ships back the phone to a seller first. Don't refund until you get your phone back.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MightyMuna:
yes you are right, I just watched this video.

http://pages.ebay.co.uk/resolutioncentre/seller_tutorial.html

and it says, the buyer should send the phone first before I issue a refund.
