Any lawyers out there? (It's a joke)((unless you're a lawyer))

So the other day I moved to a new area. With that came dropped calls, data speeds of 42 KBs(dial up anyone), and the kicker for me getting ATTs network more often then my own. I've been on the phone a lot with CSR's and you guessed it my call was dropped.

So is there an easy way I can extract my call log to prove this? I just want what I paid for and this isn't it. Not a Tbolile hater as I've been with them for over seven years. Just really frustrated with there level of service in my new area.

And to all that follow with:

1) You signed a contract deal with it?

2) Tmobile rocks!

Leave the thread as is!

I for once just need some help(ie extracting call logs)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
Are you just trying to terminate the contract, or are you trying to terminate it without paying the fee? I believe it's up to $200 per line... I forgot.

Maybe you can try talking to a customer representative and explain your situation? T-Mobile is very understanding most of the time.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Tmobile for the past six years has done well by me. No problem relating a problem to CSR. Now a huge problem just to get let out of a contract that they are not honoring(ie dropped calls and sloWWWW data speeds). Change in company policy or change in consumer demand?

I think with a merger coming they just don't give a ****.

So if you look at the OP and can help me isolate the call logs let me know

Thanks

Im sure does idiots wil make you pay honeatly!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Not idiots more like automatons. Hours of costumer care = no ability to provide a signed contract. "Sorry sir we can't email you that signed copy of contract"

Me "Why?"

CSR "We have no ability to email"

Me "Why?"

CSR "You signed your contract in a store we have no record of it"

Me "Why?"

CSR "insert automaton response here"
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] daxecutioner24:
Lol pathetic..yea most of them are program like that..as if they are getting paid six figures by Tmobile!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
If there's a local T-Mobile store, maybe you can go to them and prove the poor service that you're getting. I'm sure you'll get better responses and help with someone who's probably not a robot, lol. Try to have them help you with actually calling customer service and cancelling your contract without fees. :P

I can't really tell you about the call logs, but maybe you can prove the poor speeds by running speed tests. Be sure to run them at different times to show that it's not your phone, but your lack of service at your new location.

Of course, all of this can only work if there is actually a T-Mobile store really close by.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
call tmobile from a landline not your cellphone

ask to be transfered to retention.. explain to them the issues you are having and tell them the phone does not work in your area. By tyhe way you dont need to icolate the call logs there system flags dropped calles for them.. So they can see how many dropped calls u have. Anyways there about the only ones that can let you out of your contract without paying the termintaion fee. Fyi it is possable to get out of your agreement without the termination fee if you can prove that the service they are providing does not work in your area.. THere is a clause for that..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
raver thanks for the tip.

I'll try and see what happens. Is retention the same as costumer loyalty? cause those guys have not been that helpful about my issues.

It sucks cause I really like this phone just want a different carrier at this point.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
no theres a retention department if u call and talk to cancellations.. there the last line of defense for them to try n keep you as a customer in your case since you dont have service were u live there the only ones that can let you out of your contract without etf..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
No dice. Ten minutes on the phone and quote "It says in our terms and agreements that we don't provide coverage in all area so there is no way to release you from contract without ETF's"

Anyone wanna call them and tell them I'm dead?

Anyway thanks for the help and your roms do kick ass.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] daxecutioner24:
Just because there's a clause doesn't mean they will honor it..at the end of the day their contract are probably a thousand pages long..so they will find something to screw you over..kinda like college and the stupid fees they bring out of nowherr!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
At least stupid college fees get you some type of education all this is doing is pissing me off. There Terms and agreements are long and involved(not quite 1000 pages but close).

Actually maybe I did get some education out of this. NEVER sign a contract with a wireless carrier. It will only end up costing me the ETF. On that note let this thread die.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mbernusg:
Your SOL regardless of coverage l.. or lack there of

NEW ATT-esque policies. They have your signed contract filed away somewhere
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
ya with the att merger ya u are prob sol... id just pay the etf honestly if u can afford it...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] daxecutioner24:
Haha yea just pay the fee and dont deal with wireless carriers again!,good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Almost a month to the day of this post I am out of my tmobile contract. It only took being on the phone with 611 for about an hour every other day. So Fuc? You Tmobile. Sorry had to get that out. I hope the rest of you have an amazing experience with them. RANT OVER
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cstone1991:
Congrats on getting out of the contract! That was an exception to many rules and someone will probably get spoken to about it. No carrier (to my knowledge) will let you out of your contract without etf because you moved out of their coverage area, by policy. And on top of that, your contract generally includes mandatory arbitration (meaning its very difficult to take them to court, not that doing so would save you money...)

For anyone that may have a problem like this in the future, your best shot is to use your phone while roaming in one area, to make that look like the place you use it the most, more than you do while not roaming (check to make sure your carrier wont charge you roaming before doing this) for a couple of months. This costs your carrier and they will generally terminate your service without fees, or your consent for that matter, or at the very least gives you better ammo when you call. I know tmo and vzw do this, as do most other carriers that allow free domestic roaming.

On a side note, loyalty and retentions are the same department. Loyalty is the name used with customers because its a friendlier term, retentions is used internally because it a is more accurate description since you don't talk to them for being loyal. If you need to talk to them just call 611 and enter your phone number when asked to do so then say you want to cancel service, it'll take you right there ;) (you learn some tricks when you work at a T-Mobile call center... lol)

I'm in there coverage area which was how I was able to get out of contract. Bad tower bad signal and the kicker is I get ATT on MY phone. Service request twice. One trouble ticket and one good CSR. Bamn no more tmobile. I will be keeping the phone though. And they were nice enough to unlock it for me!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] qpqpqp:
Wasn't there a lawsuit sometime ago where they can't force you to stay in a contract if you move to a new location that they don't cover?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cstone1991:
Unfortunately fraud rings make things harder on the rest of us. Carriers don't do that because to many people would set up lines then change their billing address to somewhere with no coverage and get to cancel with no etf.

The rom i am currently using allows me to have immense internal memory for my apps and never goes low on storage but other roms (like stock roms and others) dont let me have that many apps on my phone memory.

My question is that if i want to have alot of internal memory on my phone what do i have to do ? does it come down to odexing or deodexing? if it does and if it needs to be odex how do i un deodex a cooked rom ?

I am gonna do a little more research and see which would be better, ST or T-Mobile. I guess ST is atnt for pre-paid? If t mobiles allows data (web surfing) I definitely would be interested in that a little more. That thread I linked mentioned having to drop 200$ on a new Nokia. That hurts there.

no Im stuck in a AT&T contract, I pay about 90 bucks a month for unlimited talk/text and 250mb of data..... majority of my data I use is wifi thats why i went with the smaller data package

seems like out of the three if you want the data T-Mobile would be the way...

as far as dropping 200 bucks on a nokia I have no clue Im pretty sure you can find someone selling a sim card if that's the case

[Optimus One, P500, V General] clawsright:
I am currently using openOptimus , It is good.. But has some bugs, and battery drains faster as Apps keep running in the background.. phone does not sleep well..

Which is the best custom gingerbread ROM.??

Key factors: Best BATTERY life, Smooth Performance, rooted, Adobe FLASH support..

openOptimus build 2.202.1 OR AGA-ROM v1.3.5
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gkarthik16:
I'm not sure about flash support. Never cared about it. Try Mik's ROM with franco's kernel. That's the best combo you'll ever get.

P.S: Whatever ROM you're using, if apps keeping running in the background, the battery is going to get drained. That is the law of science. Manage your apps and their syncing and the battery life will improve automatically.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gurpreet9080:
for me open optimus with franco kernal v1 (16th aug) is the best combo ...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] varungnath:
Mike's CM7 has been the best for me till now! As you said, Openoptimus does have some bugs...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] samcad:
Try cm7 from mik :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DJBhardwaj:
You must give a try to mik's stable 6.5.7 with franco's kernel 19.2

It will take you beyond awesome speed as well as battery life :)

and I would say gingerlol, it comes with app2sd running which works perfectly for me. (couldn't get app2sd working on open optimus) also paulo kernal with axis inversion fix is really good for battery, Havn't tried any CM7 roms because my phone came 2.3.3 preloaded and don't wanna flash different baseband (can brick phone) so am waiting (eagerly) for mik to have a fix for this :p

Well. I guess they are all good roms, you should just try them, but since your friend doesnt seem very interested on it, well just chose one randomly (dont know if this phrase is well made, or even that ahaha).

I'm using coderom v2x-2b, and just like someone told you, sod is caused because of wifi. i'm using kph with L modem, and I have no sod at all since... well since i'm using it (2 weeks, maybe more).

All of them offer you almost the same... cf-root, a2sd and ext4 compatibility, etc etc. I use a2sd to put apps on the sd card, even dalvik cache. Now my internal memory keeps between 129-136 mb free (dont know why it changes ahhaa ).

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Div033:
So I recently put on the new 2.3.4 OTA and noticed something about the stock boot animation: it plays once and then stops. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but on Froyo I recall the last part of the animation looping till the system was fully loaded. I mean, the two circles would go back and forth above and below the droid EYE.

I actually noticed this sometime earlier when I was trying several boot animations with a different rom, but didn't think much of it. They all played once and stopped from what I can recall. Now I'm wondering if there's an issue with my phone and it's ability to play boot animations correctly. Or is this a Gingerbread thing?
