I've had unlimited data plan for android for 20$ now i see my plan at 5gb per month but no throttling.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bigmixxx:
Worked like a charm

Asked for customer retention and got my legacy service back!

Nice!

Thanks! this worked for me- been a customer for 7 years also
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Randyc2800:
Just changed my plan today...

I had Family 1000 with 2 lines and an @home $10 a month plan. My data lines were $30-5gb for mine, and my daughter had the $15-200mb plan. I called and converted both to the $20-5gb android plan. I started the converstation stating that's what I was calling about, and the rep told me immediately that it was available. No hassle at all. I'm happy!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
Awesome guys glad to hear y'all getting hooked up.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tian100:
Thanks for the tip. I called tmo and the rep put me on hold and asked the retention depth for me. Now I have the preferred android web only plan. He told me it was twenty bucks for five gig, but I must not sure what "web only"means. I hope it is the right plan.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GilesK:
just got off phone with Tmobile been customer since start off contract and was told to get this rate i would have to sign up for a new contract with a new rate plan.

I currently have the unlimited mins with $25 data plan for 5gig

monthly bill is around $75.00 was hoping to save another $5
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
id try again
[T-Mobile LG G2x] chadrick.7:
I just got off the phone with customer care and they switched my data to the android preferred plan in about 30 seconds. Thank you very much for this tip!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JOHNNYBLAZENATOR:
Same here! At, first the rep told me that it was a "web only plan" with no minutes. I told the rep that I knew of others that had this plan and still had minutes as well. He asked about my device and we had a quick chat about the G2x and how I was going to switch to the sensation. After a few minutes of chatting he obliged and added the package for me!

5GB for 20 bucks?!?! Can't beat that!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] anthonylokrn:
No go for me.

I'm currently on a Family Classic 1000 Minute - Talk+Text for $79.99 and 2GB Data for $20.

I was told that the Android Preferred Plan (5GB for $20) is for customers that are on a newer plan that was just introduced 6 days ago. My "new" plan that was introduced in May, 2011, is not eligible and I will have to pay a ETF I wanted to change to the newest plan to benefit the Android Preferred Plan.

Anybody else run into this roadblock as well?

Thanks,

Anthony
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
I'm in a similar situation. Since they changed me to the new value plan for $59 and waived the $200 migration fee, they will only give me 5GB if I pay $25 for it, which is an additional $15 for me... I'm considering it strongly, though.

You don't wanna know where this was sent from.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] corrupt05:
how'd you get the migration fee waived?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] diablos991:
Perfect!!!

I spoke to an extremely helpful retentions Rep that not only gave me the preferred plan at $20 a month, but also gave me an employer discount that I didn't know I was eligible for.

Knocked a good $22 off my monthly bill!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] itslinx:
It definitely works. I called less than an hour ago and had no problem getting this plan added to my account. At first the guy said something about not being sure whether or not it'll work, but he put me on hold for a minute and came back and told me it worked. He confirmed that i'll save $10 a month. Not a whole lot, but it's something. Glad I did it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Hiryuu:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] zero86ea:
damn...i just got throttled lol! and i have til the 15th of this month before the end of my billing cycle. :( and i was thinking, what if the android prefered data plan kicks in on the next billing cycle?! would we get throttled then? ill report in a month with what happens!!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spyvie:
$24.99 a month = 5 gigs and 400 texts. Been on that plan since Aug of 09
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phiyuku:
I got a rep and they said it doesn't exist anymore. I am not sure if that's true. I specifically asked for the Android preferred data plan too. Instead it is $20 for 2GB. It is not much of an issue for me especially if that hack still works to make it not throttle. Plus I don't really use more than 2GB. There's wee-fee everywhere around me especially when I go back to college with wee-fee on campus.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
Eh, I'll give it a try anyways... Even though I don't even go over 1GB. (I always have my MacBook on me, with Wi-Fi almost everywhere).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dkb218:
Still on the old Android plan: $34.99 Unlimited data [no cap/no throttle] and unlimited messages.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fadownjoo:
wow

Wooow, i just did it and the whole call, from automated menu to getting the plan.....took 2 minutes lol. Best spent 2 minutes.THANKS OP
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Nicanor:
Agreed. I took a $25 G1 data plan, a $30 Android data plan and a $30 BB plan and got them all down to the Preferred $20 rate. And added a $20 Preferred Android on a line with a MT4G that previously didn't have data.

Bottom line: added data to a line and saving $5 a month.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redfusion87:
I called customer care earlier today and the rep told me that there was no such thing as Android Prefered Plan. And that the 5GB plan would be $30. So I settled for the 2GB which sucks.

I asked the rep to speak to a supervisor and he said "well, I can get him on the line but he cant do anything like that either, the 5GB=$20 option was a promotion that was only for FAMILY PLANS and that it ended a few weeks ago."

Thats some BS. What plans do you guys have to get the 5GB for $20.

I have the classic plan 500min, unlimited txt, and now 2gb data for $69.99.

I actually had an old line for 6 years with t-mobile and they didnt care and wouldnt give me any other kind of discount or anything.

Any ideas?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] uploder:
^ive been w/ tmobile since 07'and I got it 1st call no prob. dude try again. the reps are not all on the same page sadly. good luck
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redfusion87:
Are they open this late? 9:45PM Eastern ST? I'll try again for sure if they are. I had the unlimited android data on my old line. I'd love to get the 5gb for the same $20
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Helixdimension:
I tried requesting to be switched from my 20$ 2gb unlimited which is part of a 79.99 promo "truly" unlimited phone plan I signed up for in April of this year but was told I could not switch to this as it is no longer available.

are there any newly contracted ppl out there with my plan that was able to switch to android preferred data 5gb from 20$?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DustyVV:
THANK YOU!!

I didn't think I'd get it, since I waited so long. But I called today, and with NO hassles at all...got the 5G @ $20, on two phones. Waiting to actually see the proof, but I asked like 4x if it was 5G for $20, and they said yes. Sweet! :D

Thanks again! You rock! :cool:

Your Thanks meter just went up a notch. :)

Throttled

I've had the Preferred Android Web $30 plan since I purchased my G2x phone in mid May. In July and August I received a text and messaging in the My Account app that I have reached 5GB and will be throttled. I would just keep getting full unthrottled connection speed. Well, previously I was running CM7 and updating nightlys at least 1-3 times per week. For the past week and a half I have been running Stock Rooted 2.3.3. This month I am throttled.

I'm not sure if it has to do with not running CM7 or if they just were not throttling previous and they now or what the difference is. I am certainly only pulling down 60 kbs now from my house when I was previously pulling down 10 mbs.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] grenademasta:
I have the new Value plan. Paid $200 migration fee to get out of my 79.99 a month.

New Plan

500 mins with unlimited wifi mins

unlim text

2GB of data

49.99 - 15% corporate discount = 42.50 a month

2 year contract needed and you have to buy ur own phone or they will charge you any full price phone divided by 20 monthly payments.

Thank god I have one full upgrade up my sleeve. Saving it for the Hercules or Prime.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mahgninnuc93:
I spoke with a Rep this afternoon. I am not a T-Mobile customer I use Simple Mobile. Found that I can get monthly pre-paid, unlimited everything for $49.99 a month. Gonna be switching to this at the end of the month. No contract and I can port my number over. I'm liking this. Especially since I was told there is no restriction on data usage. Hell even if it is 5 gigs then throttles speed for $49 ill be fine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] supersilko:
Do I really get unlimited 4g since my plan doesn't say unlimited high speed until 5gb
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] zero86ea:
Still works.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] futango:
Still works. Just got off the phone with the retention rep. Asked straight about the android preferred data plan. Took 3 minutes and it was switched over 5GB for $20!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTRACER88:
The $50 plan will throttle you at 100 MBs.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] supersilko:
What plan do you have for you to be able to add android preferred plan? My even more plus plan is only allowed to add $10 200mb and $25 unlimited cap at 4 or 5 gb
[T-Mobile LG G2x] noodles2224:
this did not work for me. i called and all they have is $20 for the 2gb not 5gb. and ive been with tmobile for 5yrs now.. mines called premium bundle for 30 and i have 2 other lines that in my account their feature show up as 4G unlimited data for 20 but promotional.. theres no way on my line to get this $20 5gb on mines..

[T-Mobile LG G2x] TJBunch1228:
Got both my lines switched to this. Is there anyone out there who, while on a different data plan, got throttled and is subsequently not getting throttled now that they switched to this plan? It would be awesome if there was no throttle with this plan, but it seems that the only people who aren't getting throttled are the lucky people who have never been throttled regardless of the plan they are on.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] noodles2224:
no, premium for data but the rep said its an old offer and that every now and then, they have promotions you know and thats why my other 2 lines have the 5gb for $20 because at that time they were offering it.. but sucks that i cant switch it with my line. i called twice at different times and still said i cant

Oh yo mean you used to pay $30 for unlimited internet and now they feel sorry for you so they hook you up with $20 unlimited.

My plan is even more plus that's $29.99 500 minutes with old unlimited internet service added to plan for $15

its nothing like that.. i have a contract account, i pay 89.99 for 3000mins. 5 lines.. 3 only have internet plan. 2 of those pay $20 for data and the other is $30 for data. since i saw this thread, i thought maybe i can save an extra $10 but they said no. the $20 data lines were promotional deals when i got it so those are stuck at $20, since i got mines when it was first $30, i can no longer switch.

Do you think I can get that promotion?

Can you only get $20 for 5gigs? Is it possible to do like $10 for 2 gigs? That way I can switch the two 200MB lines to 2 gigs $10 each?

I dont think so but double check :-) all I know is that this seems to be working for people that have the classic plan, which is the new one

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyeheartmozart:
Hey guys, I just recently updated to sense 3.0 and immediately after my phone will show 3g then it will drop to 1x then soon after it shows no data connection. If I try to open an app that uses data like the market it tells me there is no connection, some apps tell me to check and make sure I am not in airplane mode. Then randomly 3g will kick back on for a bit then it will cycle back through 1x and no data again. I also cant tether anymore either.

I reverted back to the stock rom backup (only root no other changes) and now my signal does the same thing. I have no way to get data now and its super frustration.

Things I have tried..

Calling Verizon (solution is warranty replacement)

*228 (does nothing)

Bringing back a known working backup (does nothing)

Restart/Battery pull (nothing)

Putting it in and out of airplane mode (nothing)

I am currently downloading 2 different roms and the newest radio and I will try and flash those and see if it works.

Any thoughts?

What and where have you heard about Ubuntu helping on theming? It depends on personal taste and choice. You also have much more tools to help you graphically on windows and mac os.

Anyway, what makes the last version of ubuntu heavier on requirements it's basically its GUI, if you start updating that older version you will get the same thing. Download xubuntu or lubunto if you want something really light.

For somereason when i go into the menus in my camcorder or camera and look at the resolutions they are all white. like a white text on white bg. but you long press and I can read them. Last night the phone was randomly going to sleep. even while i was interacting with the phone the screen would just shut off. I turned nightime bat saver off and also fixed permissions.

Hey guys,

I've had the galaxy s2 for about 2 months now and am enjoying it. I recently noticed a bit of a change in the battery life I am getting though, I used to be able to get it to last 2 days quite comfortably and now it seems to be struggling. In terms of recent downloads, I've installed the google+ app most recently, perhaps it's that? I've attached the battery usage screenshot.

I haven't really used the phone for anything so it has been sat idle for about a day and is now on like 64% battery. Just wanted to check this was normal? I swear it used to be better.

Any help would be fantastic.
