I was a sprint customer, in MY AREA Sprint service went down the crapper. Tmo coverage in my area is fantastic, and has been on my recent travels around the country. Sprint->tmo was well worth it for me. Can't speak for ur coverage area tho.

Sent from my HTC Sexiness.
[HTC Sensation] 05GT:
I just recently switched from Sprint to T-Mobile. With the speedtest.net app I was averaging 300-500 Kbps with Sprint. I'm averaging anywhere from 7-10 Mbps with T-Mobile. The coverage area is great here where I live, and I actually pay less then I was paying with Sprint.
[HTC Sensation] gottabekin:
I am in NYC and I have T-mobile for a long time already, recently switch to Sensation 4G and I am getter in average 3mbps download and 1.2 up.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Speeds are great if you are in an area where they have rolled out HSPA+. I get around 7-9 Mbps up and 1-2 Mbps down. If you reach your cap, they throttle you down to EDGE (200-300 Kbps), but some people have said their speeds go even lower than that.
[HTC Sensation] steve austin:
i concur...

I average 5mb down/ 2mb up outside of Washington DC. However, when I am in a sweet spot I have averaged 8/9mb down 2/3mb up. These are great for not being on wifi. HOWEVER, if you are NOT in a tower-rich area you will hate your service. Riding from Virginia to South Carolina recently (on 95 south and 85 south) i maintatined a 2g connection 80% of the time. This severly limited my internet capabilities and download speeds. It was not until I draove through major cities that a strong signal came up. I was very disappointed in this. Results may vary for you though.
[HTC Sensation] heygrl:
When I'm on EDGE Opera Mini makes life so much better. I go from NV to AZ a few times out of the year and I can browse forums, image boards and etc. with no problems due to the image compression. Loads as fast as 3G would.

Sprint's 3G network is really slow, I don't think you will have speed issues if you switch from Sprint to T-Mobile especially with this being a 42Mbps market. I'm not going to say 7-10Mbps is network wide but you should have at least 1Mbps
[HTC Sensation] jelliottz:
I am in Tulsa, OK and average 8.5-10.5 mb down and 1.5-2.5 mb up. I went with the 5gb of data and usually finish my billing cycle with 1/2-1 gb to spare.

My wife usually goes over her 5gb, and does get throttled, but its not unbearable. It's edge, but it works for a couple of days a month. She runs a blog and tethers her phone to our laptop or Iconia tablet.
[HTC Sensation] Ivanstein:
I switched from Sprint because every time I had any issue at all, it was several hours on the phone trying to get it fixed. Not to mention trying to find someone in a store that could do more than pull a new phone out of a box.

So far I am happy. The high speed data is much better than the old Evo. But the lower 2G leaves something to be desired. I may get throttled in the future, but the next tier is only the cost of the "4G fee" that Sprint charged me for my evo that I tried to use the two times I was in an area that had it and found out it pretty well sucked.

I don't think you'll loose much by leaving Sprint, unless you like the saying "Can I put you on hold?"
[HTC Sensation] digiholic:
That's pretty standard with T-Mobile. If you spend all your time in the city, they are great to use. For travelers... not so much.
[HTC Sensation] firenrescue:
I left Verizon for T-Mobile about 6 years ago and never looked back. I live in the SF Bay Area and get about 6-8 Mbps down. Not only T-Mobile will unlock you phone for you. I have bin to Thailand and Mexico with my phone and used none T-mobile sim cards. I am not looking forward to the T-mobile AT&T merger. I think the only people that are going to make out in the deal is AT&T customers.
[HTC Sensation] PensFan66:
Im with you OP - I was with Sprint (a convert from AT&T iPhone to the EVO 3D) - I loved the phone but for 2 weeks I tried to live with the Data on Sprint and I just couldnt do it. I have been with Tmobile for 2 weeks and have had NO data issues and I do in fact get a data signal where my Sprint service got nothing (At the Hockey Rink / Etc). I have tested Edge (2G) speeds and they are still faster than what I was pulling from Sprint - So I was happy and so is my wife. I hated to drop the 3D phone, but I needed reliable Data.

Make sure you tell Sprint why you are leaving (if you do) - They argued with me that data is fine and I showed them speed tests on 3 of their phones at 120-175k (one was 1.5Mb, as they stated, but I showed them Wifi was on!!! - Disabled it and down the tubes it went). I then showed my Sensation to them and I was pulling 6Mb (around 6000k down and 2000k up) - They said, "Well, yeah, your bill will be higher" - I pay $5 less and I am on the 5GB plan - and I showed them Edge speeds with the 4G Disabled, where I would get unlimited, and they had no more comments.

Sprint sales people are great, I had no issues with them - but They need a HUGE upgrade to stay in this business.
[HTC Sensation] gclawson:
Well for me in Indiana coverage is average with the other two big dogs. Sprint just flat out sucks. I switched from sprint to tmo and never looked back. Sim card based phone service. Better data speeds. More 3g and 4g towers by far.

As for Speed after data cap you go to 2g speed after you hit the cap. Which is way better then being totally cut off or paying overage. plus if Att and Tmo merger goes through the next gen devices will have an amazing coverage because the two network will eventually become one.
[HTC Sensation] twiztidnutzzzzz:
I'm down in Atlanta and been with tmo for many moons...I got the g2x and I will honestly say at times the network really bumps and hauls ass. There isn't many times ItS slow....

I usually use around 4-5 gb of data. N the one month I used 6.7gb they said I would b throttled but never was for the remaining week of the cycle..

But with.tmo it all depends on ur area..do ur research if it's not too late.
[HTC Sensation] tsekh501:
(1) Honestly tmobile coverage isn't the best. When you get coverage, it's very good (it's pretty good in Chicago). Your best bet is see if you have any co-worker at your workplace who uses tmobile and test.

(2) Edge speed. I signed up for 2GB. My normal usage is around 1GB (slightly below, my workplace has good wifi and I use wifi most of the time), and get close to 2GB if I use tethering a lot that month. 5GB is $10/month more expensive. Sign up for 2GB and pay $10 to switch to 5GB if you run over, and switch back to 2GB next month.

[HTC EVO 3D] Mr. Clown:
Moved to proper forum
[HTC EVO 3D] notasimpleway:
If I understand from all the previous threads about this... They don't use the same radio. Meaning Evo 3D's WiMax radio is useless for LTE. However, I think the WiMax towers are able to be converted with a software upgrade to LTE. Meaning current WiMax towers just need new software or firmware. But we will need new phones with LTE radios.

[General Questions and Answers] nicolaibvm:
I have installed Cyanogenmod 7.1 on my phone.

I tried to copy some files to the phone but everything was working sloooowlyyy...

I accidently (didn't actively search for it) fell over a page telling that one could change "the usb cache size" with good results...

The reason why I write it in "" is because I'm not sure that this was the name.

Ever since I installed and ran this my USB connection has been very unstable.

So I tried to set the cache size back to the original and uninstalled the program. Unfortunately I still have the USB stability problems and I am not sure if they were there before I ran the program (which I cannot remember the name of).

Can someone please help me?

The results I get from Google doesn't help at all.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] typci:
Just got my two fling joysticks in today:

Games played:

Gorilla Bob

Death worm

Pew Pew 2

Samurai II

The good:

I think the fling joysticks idea would make for excellent buttons. When placed over onscreen buttons, they work really well. Just tap them like you would any gamepad button.

The bad:

The problem is the joystick radius is too small. In Pew Pew 2, Deathworm, and Samurai II the joystick does not extend to edge of the onscreen joystick, so you move really really slow. Gorilla Bob was a perfect fit to the onscreen keyboard. But the fling joystick just isn't that accurate. I found myself dying a lot more than usual.

The Ugly:

It's dirt cheap plastic. I feel like I'm going to break them every time I use them. I have a feeling they won't last a week in my tablet case. The first time I set down my backpack wrong, they will be broken. Secondly, they don't slide too well. If they don't make flat contact with the tablet, they may not register.

Putting them on the screen requires pressure (Not light pressure either)!!!!

Which means you can potentially damage your screen is you put them on incorrectly. Best to put the suction cups over the border.

The base of the joystick is a painted magnet (might be plastic instead of paint, not sure). While it might not damage your screen, I'm not willing to take that chance. I wouldn't use them on a screen without a screen protector. However, gluing a piece of felt or fabric to the bottom might make a huge improvement in the way the joysticks handle, and protect your screen.

The potential silver lining:

I think the fling joystick may work very well over a onscreen dpad, i.e. emulator. The do not work well on onscreen analog sticks. I will try some emulators later.

Comparison to other joysticks with my score:

360 Controller: 10

PS3 Controller: 9

Onscreen Android joystick: 6-8

Fling Joystick: 1-4 (may change after testing with emulator)

Advertised price: $20 (USD)

My Cost: $9

What I feel they are worth: $2 (may change after testing with emulator)

Might be better over onscreen dpad. Will test that later.

If I get bored, I may try out Thumbies by Psyclone. Since the fling joystick would make an excellent button, the thumbies might be pretty good, if they line up correctly onscreen. I found I can get the entire set for $9 on taobao(3 d-pads, 1 4-button, 1 3-button, 1 2-button, and 3 single buttons).
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] xreflection:
Thanks for this. I've been looking at these joysticks and I think I'll wait for something better now. Seemed to hold so much promise..

Is it possible to use a wii controller with these games? or will that only work for emulators?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] typci:
If the games will allow you to use a keyboard or joystick, there are ways to make the wii controller work.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] SwedishGojira:
Glad I didn't order when I felt tempted ;)

Thanks for posting this.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] player911:
I love mine. They only work well with on-screen analog sticks like in Nova 2 and Galaxy on Fire.

I bought 2 but quickly found you only really need 1 because the right hand is all over the place.

They do feel SUPER cheap and fragile but they work very well. They literally should only cost $1 or $2. But they give a nice resistance to moving around. Anything with an analog interface will work great. It probably won't work so well with controls that use separate buttons for Up/Down/Left/Right though, although most games come with several options for control schemes. For sizes, some games allow you to adjust the size of the onscreen joystick so you aren't "walking slow".

It really depends on the game I guess. Some games work well with it and others don't. Buttons would be a nice idea but again, all games place buttons in different positions.

If they standardized the size of the virtual joysticks so you can reach the outer limits then this joystick would be perfect all around. The button idea (I thought the same) is also give and take on the game.

Unless someone made a "virtual controller overlay" where it is the same overlay and you just map buttons to the games. Then you are getting into technical aspects.

The price is pretty steep for the plastic, but the idea is awesome. The joysticks, in my experience, REALLY help in enjoying the game. If you can pick one up for a few bucks I would. I keep mine in its nice little pouch and use it when needed.

Hello,

If you want to do anyway with the Lockscreen altogether, you can get No Lock in the Android Market for free and it could not be easier to use. You can also easily turn back on the Lockscreen by pressing the Icon.

With No Lock engaged, you have to do is press the Volume Button or any other Button to get the unlocked Screens. The Screen goes out in the same time as whatever you set the time to be.

[Epic 4G General] cerchiara:
So had to get a new Samsung epic from sprint since my phone messed up. I'm debating if I should go back to the sprint store because the new epic keyboard feels weird sometimes. I'm approaching almost a month so I think I've broke it in. But does anyone remember having there Samsung epic new and the keyboard feeling weird in the beginning and then fixing it self later on. When I say weird-- it's that sometimes the keyboard feels just like I remember my old one worked and then other times it feels like there's a plastic bag behind the keys. Am I paranoid or should I head to Sprint.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
I thought it was weird at first but that was from using a TP2 for so long. I still miss that keyboard. If HTC would have slapped that keyboard on an EVO, now that would have been an awesome phone.

The TP2 was the gold standard for keyboards. I've been looking for a new gen phone to match it ever since.

[Epic 4G General] squshy 7:
I know what you mean about the plastic bag, but that's only ever been temporary for me. Honestly though, you'd be better off just sticking with it as they won't replace the phone just for that. They'd put a harvested front half of the phone on, which includes the screen, so you'd be getting a used and non refurbished screen.
[Epic 4G General] schnowdapowda:
I got my replacement from asurion about a month back and I do feel the bubbly feeling behind it. Plus a lot of skipped keys even with the keyboard patch. It was brand new too, not a refurb. Im trying to break the buttons in myself by pressing them.. it seems to be getting better on most keys.

cd's or tapes?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Epiphani:
So a buddy of mine bought one of the Viewsonic G-Tablets, and attempted to root(if this is the right term), and I think he may have bricked it. After reading many threads here, and watching some videos, I'm quite confident now that we could get it back to working order, but after hours upon hours of attempts, I cannot seem to solve the issue.

Model: UPC300-2.2

OS Ver: 2.2

Tap UI Version:

1.0-2638

Kernel 2.6.32.9-00000-10.8.2-dirty

Build: FRF91

As of right now, the damn thing will not turn on outside of recovery mode. If you try and power it on, the screen never powers up.

If I power up in recovery, I also don't get a power up screen, until I run NVFlash. After running NVFlash, it will create partitions and boot up into the OS. Every functions at that point, but if I turn it off, and turn it back on, it repeats its previous offense; no screen power.

When I turn it on though, although no power, it does make a bing on my PC, to indicate USB is getting feed, but it does not try and mount the device.

I am not positive what he has done to get it into this mode, or what I can do to get it out of this mode. I've tried a handful walkthroughs and troubleshooting threads but they have not resolved this problem. Is this common? What are my steps to try and resolve it? He's coming up to the end of his RMA time, and he will soon try and see if he can RMA it, so I don't have a lot of time to futz with it, so I'm reaching out for help. :eek:

hello,

while android is running there is heavy read/write-traffic on the SD-card.

It's not only, that it's booted from SD - it also writes logs etc. to SD-card all the time.

so writing to a sd-card uses a lot of battery-power as we all know.

I think this might be the cause of our bad battery-lifes.

can't we install to internal storage instead? it does not need to be NAND, just moving the .img files to internal storage.

plus we should minimize writings like logs etc. - is that possible ?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] arrrghhh:
The main cause of battery drain on RAPH/DIAM is panel collapse.

The panel drains a ton of power, and on RAPH/DIAM we haven't figured out how to take it out of collapse... so we can collapse it and save a ton of battery power, but we can't wake it back up... so it's left on all the time.

We can't install to internal storage, that will not work. Nice try tho... ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] danimihalca:
Sorry, but what exactly do you mean by "panel collapse"? I observed that the battery charges quicker in Android ROM than in WM and the discharging process is likewise.
