[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
I see, the part that I do not understand is why are all the CM7 ringers and such .ogg files? and it will not recognize the notification maybe unless I used a trimmer.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
I use mp3s for notifications on MIUI, even though MIUI uses ogg files. But MIUI has a different way of choosing ringtones & notifications, which makes it easier.

Where exactly are you moving the file? And are you rebooting afterwards? If the media scanner doesn't run then it may not notice the file.

Edit:

You can also use Zedge to set your notification tones. You may have to move it to sdcard/zedge/notifications to be able to choose it from the app. I'm sure that there are other apps that allow you to choose custom mp3s for notifications.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
Thanks for the info cause I just checked and it's in there now. Just needed a reboot lol. Noob life. Well sorta.

[LG Thrill 4G] malickie:
Not sure if anyone know's but let's say I get two of these phones one for me and one for the wife and Only one needs Data considering I am home all day with wi-fi access. Is there a way to get it so I can call in and drop one of the data plans after getting the phone?
[LG Thrill 4G] Cthater:
The only way you could do that is if you buy it off contract. The carrier will force you to have a data plan.
[LG Thrill 4G] malickie:
Well what if I buy it and say I sold the phone and plug in My OLD Motorola Rokr to the Sim when I call them. I mean they can't prove that I didn't sell it.
[LG Thrill 4G] quarlow:
But the network knows your imei and att will know what kind of phone it is.

Would your plan work? Probably. Would it be surprising for att to surprise you with automatically adding a data plan later? No.

If you look online at your account it will show you what phone you have. I once tested their system with a few phones I got from friends. One was an att branded flip phone, one was a unlocked HTC WinMo phone with a custom ROM, and another was a TMo blackberry. Each time within a day or two the website updated itself with my phone.

[LG Thrill 4G] againareku:
you'll be able to switch to another data plan when you change device

or outright remove it

but when you switch back to the thrill it will detect it and automatically add the $15mb 200 meg data plan

just do the iphone or unlocked smartphone idea to get her unlimited data. that way at least she can listen to pandora, stream videos, and use gps when she's out.
[LG Thrill 4G] malickie:
I have heard of the iPhone idea but what's the unlocked Smartphone idea. I mean I have an unlocked T-Mobile Mytouch 4G (That Work?)
[LG Thrill 4G] yoyochuckd:
plenty of other ways, port out number to another carrier.....port it back in, dont have to use same rate plan when you come back, dif phone now, no data needed...
[LG Thrill 4G] AzraelsVoice:
Any time you put your Sim card in a smartphone, the phone will update the IMEI on your account and send you a text saying it added the plan within about two days of use. Pretty much no way around it that I know of.
[LG Thrill 4G] TylDurden:
The price of your phone is subsidized by the contracted data plan. As far as I know they would leave it on your account no matter what actual phone you are using, since they gave you a $550 phone and will be getting their money back one way or another.
[LG Thrill 4G] AzraelsVoice:
Not actually. You can start a contract with a smartphone but later change your IMEI to a regular phone and drop the data altogether. They get their money back from your monthly rate plan.
[LG Thrill 4G] kleeman7:
If you got the phone for a reduced price then switched to a non smart phone you could drop the data, but if you use any smartphone with att they add a data plan.
[LG Thrill 4G] TylDurden:
So why are data plans contracted and required on some (smart) phones and not others?
[LG Thrill 4G] AzraelsVoice:
Data plans aren't contracted. smartphones require data plans because of the large amounts of

data they consume due to the full html browser, app downloading, and app data use.
[LG Thrill 4G] TylDurden:
Interesting. I don't have too much experience with ATT but on TMobile when I got a BB and sold it, I attached a different phone and tried to remove the Data plan and it gave me a disconnection fee. I had to get a sales rep friend work some magic, when ATT says that a phone "requires data and a 2 year contract" I just put 2 and 2 together. Glad to hear I'm not locked into a data plan.
[LG Thrill 4G] AzraelsVoice:
That's crazy that t mobile contracts plans. No wonder they're going out of business lol. with AT&T, pretty much the only thing that is contracted is your service. You can change any rate plan or data plan anytime as long as it's within the guidelines for your device.
[LG Thrill 4G] TylDurden:
Makes sense to me. Data usage of a phone has nothing to do with a required data plan. You can always turn it off (the data) from the phone. Getting money back for a more expensive phone is a much better excuse to require data. I'm still doubting that I can just change to a flip phone and turn off my data plan on ATT. I liked tmobile (and still do) better than ATT. I just wanted a Thrill and I joined my Dads plan so I pay less, but I almost payed the same with my own plan on Tmobile without splitting the bill with anyone. ATT is way more expensive.
[LG Thrill 4G] kiltedthrower:
I keep hearing this. I shopped around and couldn't find another carrier that had a significantly reduced rate from what I pay.

5 lines

2 smart phones w/unlimited data

2 non-smart phones w/unlimited data

1 non-smart phone not on any data plan

1500 minutes

unlimited text

Total monthly=~$230

We had 2100 minutes but since AT&T went free mobile to mobile calling and up 10 non-cell lines free to and from calling, we had a ton of rollover minutes.

US Cellular was like $250

Verizon was $160 before you even threw in data plans and insurance

Sprint is terrible in my area for reception

T-mobile was ~$240

Granted I get 15% off my bill so it'd be a bit more expensive. But when price comparing, all the companies are about the same when it comes to family packages.
[LG Thrill 4G] AzraelsVoice:
I have 4 lines

3 smartphones w/ $25 data

1 regular Joe

Insurance on all 4

Unlimited texting for all

Around $225 before my discount

[LG Thrill 4G] TheGerbenator:
Clearing things up

Ok ok ok, so I work for ATT Customer Care, and I have to deal with this every darn day. ATT's systems are smarter than you, sorry, it's true. They do random sweeps and see what IMEI (id for phone) the sim card is attached to. They also look at the calls, and every call has an IMEI attached to it. I promise you, even if you buy the phone outright, or say you have a different phone, it will catch you. It will also notify you saying your busted, and it will put on the $25 2gb with $10/1gb overage on it. You cannot get around it, sorry. The only way was to have a smartphone exclusion on the acct, and that is not possible because you are changing IMEI's. Sorry, deal with it.

On a side now, if you want unlim data, then buy an ORIGINAL iPhone, put it on your acct for a few days, call back in and have the imei changed to the thrill, and you get to keep the data package.

Have a great day! ;)
[LG Thrill 4G] TylDurden:
Do you have to call in or can you just switch back to the Thrill? it seems like you'll still have your Unl Data and this totally awesome system you mentioned should just recognize and switch your imei without a phone call.
[LG Thrill 4G] AzraelsVoice:
You'll already have the data plan. You have to call in to make it compatible with the thrill. IPhone data plans have different codes than other smartphones.

"Ask not what your Thrill can do for you, but what awesome things can you do with your Thrill!"

Wait, so their 3g is going to be faster than the 4g they offer in most cases? lol
[HTC EVO 3D] tech7:
i told u i told u i told u
[HTC EVO 3D] ultra78721:
Awesome...didn't know anything about this:o

Thanks Op for the info :D
[HTC EVO 3D] life64x:
Thanks for the info, but will it roll out like 4g? Very slow time wise...couple years, limited area coverage? Guess we will have to wait till October 7. Sometimes I hate sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] tech7:
He got it wrong that guy all 4g phone support evdo rev b and evo 3d and epic touch support evdo 3d and do advance nextwork and speeds of evdo rev b is 9 mps down and 5 mps up unless sprint caps the speeds only and do advance hits 14 mps down and 5 mps up
[HTC EVO 3D] tech7:
And no it will roll out where ever is 3g evdo rev a mr and enjoy if u dont belive it just wait and see but for some odd reason 4g just not ganne be on when they roll out this unless they hit the switch also on 4g to wimax wave 2 and im pretty sure they will
[HTC EVO 3D] Smac7:
hmm, weird, it coincides with the expected release of the iphone 5.

my guess: iPhone 5 on sprint will be 3.5g (rev b) rather than 4g. I have my doubts that apple will create a LTE and a wimax 4g phone, especially since the rumors are pointing to one iphone model, that works all over the world.

In terms of what this means to me, awesome! I hope itll actually work though, my current speeds are well below 3g or even 2g.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jackietreehorn:
Interesting, but all still just rumor that may well have started just in forums. Not saying it's not true, but taking it with a grain of salt until something more official comes around.

That said, what the last poster brought up about the iphone possibly having Rev B support makes sense. It would put Sprint more in line with 4G from other carriers (and beating their 3G), and assuming the iphone doesn't come with LTE, a leg up even.
[HTC EVO 3D] tech7:
I really doubt that iphone will ever support faster data not even evdo rev b dont get ur hopes up apple sucks big time
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
hilarious.

i laughed out loud from the reality of this statement.
[HTC EVO 3D] Smac7:
well thats potential speed. Keep in mind the potential speed of wimax is like 100 mbps, meanwhile the fastest it can usually get is around 8. I figure maybe if they go to rev b i can sqeeze out a whole 100 kbps, lol. sprint blows in this area.
[HTC EVO 3D] tech7:
Looks like u still stuck at 1x in ur area
[HTC EVO 3D] Febby:
No its just the just the horrible 3G most of us get.. I get anywhere from 95kbs to 250 Max at home averaging at 145 most the time...
[HTC EVO 3D] life64x:
Wait...will do. Because that's the only thing I been doing...waiting for 3 years for them to deliver what they promised...unlimited 4g here in San Diego. What's another few years..For improved 3G
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
Well if i would get those speeds I would call them , after so much they should grant you to cancel the line(done it in the past )

I do not get amazing speeds but there good overall

Btw speed test updated it and it supports qHD displays :)
[HTC EVO 3D] spencer88:
I would love to get speeds like that.
[HTC EVO 3D] Smac7:
Nope, it's 3g rev a.
[HTC EVO 3D] DJ1994:
I thought one of you said that upload should bot be faster than down. I just ran 6 tests that all look like this.

boom!! from my shooter
[HTC EVO 3D] popular nobody:
Rumors doesn't make it official, you will end up heartbroken that way. Come October 7th, we'll see if the rumors will be reality. It's no HSPA+ and DO-Advanced, but it's better than Rev A and another option for simultaneous voice and data.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
What do you mean by "another option for simultaneous voice and data." ??
[HTC EVO 3D] popular nobody:
I'm surprised you didn't know this, but Rev. B supports Voice and Data at the same time. Why you think CDMA subscribers was begging for that switch from the moment it was finalized? SVDO wasn't an option back then.
[HTC EVO 3D] tech7:
Look
[HTC EVO 3D] madmax2k1:
rev this rev that, I will be happy with a consistent 2MB/s speed, I just want to able to browse full websites without testing my patience.
[HTC EVO 3D] dcfella:
I really hope Sprint does upgrade their network soon. I'm not sure if it's the network or the 3D, but i rarely get over 600kbps down lately. 4G is very erratic too. I can only usually stay connected to that if i'm near a window or outside.
[HTC EVO 3D] radioguinea:
Here is my speedtest. Not bad for 3G at 8AM in NYC :)
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
haha no idea, lol.

personally i had no care for it as I was still rockin Nextel back when it was finalized and never gave it much thought at all. Back then never was concerned with data near as much as now as it was never an issue at all.

But still though, would we not need a OTA to take advantage of Rev. B?? Since currently the phone is only configured to take Rev A, less they added it in the last one.
[HTC EVO 3D] tech7:
did u ever used iden data ?
[HTC EVO 3D] XsMagical:
iDEN was/is so slow, i use to install and maintain those radio for sprint a few years back.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Hardly ever. PTT was main use of it and loved it back then b/c it was of use to me then. data use overall has increased by everyone over time as the phones can handle it, back then i could of cared less much less even thought of having to search the web while on the phone at same time.
[HTC EVO 3D] Genjinaro:
Understatement, it's abysmally slow.

I think 0.18 Mbps down was the fastest I've pulled over iDen.
[HTC EVO 3D] ffolkes:
As in, 180 kbps? Sounds blistering fast. My Sprint 3G coverage routinely hits around 40 kbps during lunchtime. Honestly and truly slower than a 56k modem of 15 years ago.
[HTC EVO 3D] Smac7:
yep, not only that,but your ping is probably crazy high. mine frequently gets over 1000ms
[HTC EVO 3D] fastamx79:
I was an iDEN user from 1998 till 2008 and yes, the data speeds were less than a 14.4 baud modem.

--edit--

When I moved to Iowa from Chicago I was making little money in radio so I used my i870 as a modem to save money, and it was a PITA just trying to send an email. Texting on iDEN was fun too because it would use the data connection and sometimes would take 2 minutes just to download a text with less than 20 characters in it.
[HTC EVO 3D] aquakevem:
I noticed that my download speeds were a bit faster the other day, over 3G.

What do you make of this?
[HTC EVO 3D] miguelfp1:
that those are some stupidly fast speeds, I get about 250kbps down on a great day....
[HTC EVO 3D] aweskelo:
rocked a whopping 200k down today on speed test. Sprint data SUCKS.
[HTC EVO 3D] tech7:
i like ur ups my up only go 556 kb up and my down hits most 2.5 mps
[HTC EVO 3D] poweroutlet:
Sprint please upgrade to Evdo Rev B and also improve your back end. I can hit 1.5-2mbps down and 800-900 kbps up on Evdo rev A at like 3 AM. During the day, I'm lucky to break 300 kbps and sometimes drop below 100 kbps. It's just awful and truly pathetic compared to the performance that I had on TMOs HSPA+.

4G/WIMAX is very inconsistent, sometimes getting all the way up to 9mbps but other times falling below 1 mbps (these readings were taken right after each other in the same place).

What's the point of having unlimited data if its this slow and erratic? I hope sprint improves their network to match the competition.
[HTC EVO 3D] jayharper08:
I've always gotten decent speeds with sprint. If they can make it faster, I'm all for it tho :)

Same here, I averaged 100-200 kbps all week with a very strong signal strength of -79dBm.

I called Sprint about it and they told me there are some outages in my area and credited my account $20.

Nobody knows what's going on with Sprint towers lately, I guess we have to wait for their big announcement on Oct 7.

[HTC EVO 3D] kenfly:
Sounds like edge speed to me :-P lol
[HTC EVO 3D] fastamx79:
I'll play too!! The 'slow' speed was taken yesterday at my house (had to unplug my Airave to get an accurate reading - and that bump in the upload speed at the beginning is artificial.. for some reason when it started that test it showed my speed as being 649000).

The 'faster' one was taken outside my work (I work in radio and in the building I have a very bad signal..)
[HTC EVO 3D] clark44:
My Internet pretty much sucks very heavy donkey balls. I hope they apply this in my area to.
[HTC EVO 3D] themuffinman:
Since everyone is posting 3g speeds, this is a screen cap from a couple weeks ago. The only times I get speeds like this is late night early morning hours, anything during the day is a lot slower.

[HTC EVO 3D] tech7:

[HTC EVO 3D] fastamx79:
I hope this rumored upgrade applies to my area too. I moved to Sioux Falls about 4 years ago from Chicago and we only got 3G back in November of 09 because Swiftel is a f**kin joke. I'm really hoping this "rev b across the board" upgrade also includes affiliate areas as well.. if not I'm guessing Rev B will be out here about the same time 5G comes out lol :(

I can get 4G access, but it is through Clearwire and the areas are VERY small, and unofficial because the only reason it is here is due to Clear having to comply with the FCC rules/guidelines (BTW I can NOT get that 4G signal at my home as it seems only 1 or 2 towers are active... and if I do use 4G I get 8mpbs down and .4mpbs up..... it's a sick joke)
