If you guys are upset about this, wait until you get your letters in the mail saying that Sprint is going to completely abolish the "Premier" program. I got my letter yesterday.

The good news is, the letter states that they are committed to unlimited data and they had to "sacrifice" the Premier program in order to keep that going. It also stated that everyone who is currently a Premier customer will get one more yearly upgrade which can be used after June 2012 but before December 2012.

Something like that.....I left the letter at home and I'm going off of my memory here, but what I said is very close (if not exactly) what the letter from Sprint said. I'll post a pic of it here later when I get home from work if you guys want.

The more people who switch from Sprint, the more bandwidth for me!
[HTC EVO 3D] Jungle Jack:
Hello,

Between not being able to Bill to the Store and the resumption of Instant Rebates, (only instead of getting a Check, now we get an Amex Gift Card) I really think you need to be smoking crack to purchase a new phone at the Sprint Store.

I have gotten every phone for the past almost 13 years at a Sprint Store, Never again. At least at Best Buy, you get Instant Rebates and no damn Gift Cards.

Between the end of the Premier Program, almost doubling to termination fees, changes in Return Policy, and more, all that made Sprint special is being thrown away. I really might dump Sprint sooner than later. And Solstice, enjoy the extra bandwidth.

Cheers,

JJ
[HTC EVO 3D] Genjinaro:
Totally forgot about buying through Bestbuy. Hell now that I think about it, BTA was the only reason I ever purchased from Sprint to begin with.

I'm not as annoyed but the BestBuy/Amazon deals aren't always fresh for exsisting customers. I hate that "new line/ new signee" bullsh**.
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
Yup I used billed to account and i like the feature cause i can keep my current phone to compare now i need to sell my current phone before getting the new one and gamble to see if the new phone was worth it oh well, If they upgrade the towers in my are I will be happy with unlimited, as of right now, no carrier can fullfill my plan

from my shooter rocking myns ROM :P
[HTC EVO 3D] boost happy:
When your buying phones at full retail such as I have with my last 3 phones, Sprint is cheaper than Any other local store hands down, Best Buy is 699 for EVO 3D, thats 100 more, The Epic Touch is $150 more at best buy than at the sprint store.
[HTC EVO 3D] PMGRANDS:
That was one of the Best features that Sprint had! Little by Little it seems like All the Incentives that I use to use to Convince my friends or Whoever that they should switch to Sprint, Sprints now Taking Away from US!!

WTF Sprint? I feel like I'm back with Verizon!!
[HTC EVO 3D] guitardoc64:
I agree PM. Hopefully they will bring it back inside the next 2 years. I'm sure there will be enough complaints and churn to warrant it.

Was just wondering why can AOSP and Cyanogenmod 7 overclock their kernels but Sense roms can't for Gingerbread?
[EVO Shift 4G General] nicksimmons336:
Because the kernel source for sense gingerbread hasn't been released by HTC.

What causes this on my memory card?

I had about 10GB of music syncing to it overnight. After it finished the next day it said 18GB free on card... later today, I decided to flash a new ROM, I go to flash the .zip in Recovery and the .zip file is corrupt(bad). After a second look- the card now says 29gb free after that whole long music sync ! What is going on here :mad:

I have reformatted the card before because of files getting corrupted and I am about to see if transcend can't send me a new one unless someone here knows something else that might be causing this data corruption to happen.
[HTC Inspire 4G] id10terrordfw:
29GB is the correct capacity. You will always lose about 10% due to the difference in how manufacturers rate storage space and OS's recognize them. Basically, it is base 8 math vs base 10. 29 is normal.
[HTC Inspire 4G] GravvyTrain:
fake or no?

I had 18gb free on the sd after the music sync. Silly me didn't check for the music to see if it was there. Later that day I went to transfer a new ROM to the card and it read at 29gb like I hadn't even synced all that music AT ALL !

I just can't believe I got another fake memory card... this sucks. I didn't think a class 6 transcend 32gb would F**K me over like this thats all.

How can my files get corrupted other than the card being a fake?
[HTC Inspire 4G] 1ChesterD:
Not sure I understand why you think you've a fake. Is it because it only shows as 29g? If so, then you have to understand the difference between marketing and engineering.The Samsung card that came with my phone shows as 7.39g under properties.And is listed as having over 7.9g if you count the individual cells. The first total is engineering, the 2nd the marketing #. Or is it because you lost the music? With flash memory, any number of things can cause a wipe - ranging from user error to static shock to failure of the memory cells themselves. And flash memory always comes with extra cells built in to compensate for cells dying.
[HTC Inspire 4G] GravvyTrain:
I will just transfer one artist at time and see if it stays on it. I think I have a corrupt card because after filling space on it at a certain point the rest of the files will be inaccessible.
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:
There are apparently quite a few fakes coming from Asia. I had a Kingston 32gb class 6 card that did the same thing. After waiting for over an hour for my files to transfer, I unplugged my phone from the pc. When the SD card mounted, there was no music on it. I did some google searching, tried various methods of formatting, used a card reader to transfer files. When using the card reader, my pc would show that the files were there but when I put the card in my Inspire, there was a blank card. When I put the card back in the reader it was blank. When trying to play music that showed on the card right after a transfer, I would get an error message that Windows could not read from source. I ended up buying a PNY class 10 card from Newegg. Problem solved.

Good news from transcend CS

I asked if the lifetime warranty is still valid purchasing from ebay, and they replied-

Looks like I will be taking this route if the card corrupts my files again...Its too bad I should get a refund from the ebay seller , but I would be better off just sending this one in for a new one.

It does surprise me to get a defective product from Transcend- they seem to have a good reputation but everyone get defective products now and then I suppose.

Lifetime Warranty +1 :p
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK007:
i might have to look into that. 16gb seemed like plenty at first, but now im needing more. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Reinaldo33897:
I used to buy micro SD's from ebay and ended with a few fakes. I found a program called h2testw 1.4 that writes to the SD then reads it back. It will let you know if the card files written are either corrupted or the SD is a fake. I dont use any SD cards without testing it first. I went thru the same issue where the cards would show their gb but when I transfered files to them it would say transfered but the phone could not see them, turned out to be fakes. Now the test does take a while as I recall I ran a 32gb card thru it and it took a little under 4 hrs so you do have to be patient with the test. All depends on size of SD.
[HTC Inspire 4G] degener8:
+1 for H2testw 1.4

That and CrystalDiskMark are always run on any flash/USB memory i buy before any use. Learned from bad ebay experience as well :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] slipmagt:
I saw this card on Slickdeals, someone linked to some reviews. Alot of people were having corruption.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] r3a1ist:
So Samsung has announced a new processor in their Exynos line. Seems as though they are releasing this new processor by the end of this year. Here's the link. http://phandroid.com/2011/09/29/samsung-introduces-new-1-5ghz-exynos-4212-dual-core-processor/

The question is, will this be the processor which is will be in the Nexus Prime in relation to an OMAP processor and how powerful is this SOB gonna be given the 1.2 model in the E4GT is an absolute monster as it is? Second, how overclocked do you think this new processor is or will it have unlocked overclocking potential. This has been one of the most difficult decisions of my life because I am in absolute love with my E4GT but I've decided to return it and give it a month for the dust to settle. There is a heated spec war just over the horizon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dev_man77:
Nice find.

But what does this and all the other threads about "future phones" have to do with the E4GT? I know its comparing processors but there is an overall general forum for general talk like that.

SO sick of hearing about new stuff thats not even gonna be out for like half a year or later. I just want to enjoy the nice phone I just got. All this speculation and OOH and AHHs are just preventing people from wanting to get this phone and wait til the next big thing and makes us take a hit on development.

If you keep waiting til the next big thing you might as well wait forever because you can only have the baddest phone on the block for 4 months tops anyway and something better will be out.

Sorry for the rant.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
Yea I didn't have this phone a week yet and Im already starting to feel obsolete reading about this lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] r3a1ist:
Good thing you ask, seems as though Samsung and Google announced the date they will be announcing the Nexus Prime today. That will be on October the 11th. Won't be long, less then 2 weeks from now before we can put all these rumors to rest. Don't get me wrong, trust me, I'm a more hardcore E4GT lover than you can imagine. Here's the link to the upcoming announcement within 2 weeks http://www.gottabemobile.com/2011/0...-expected-on-on-october-11th-droid-prime-too/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] r3a1ist:
It's basically a EG4T with NFC, possibly LTE with Sprints upcoming network expansion, a 720 p qHD specialty screen with about a third more pixels per square inch and the new model processor. Oh, and possibly at 4.65 inches. These are the rumors circulating and the more I watch the more evidence that's popping up about the screen and the processor. Samsung just happens to announce a their new 1.5 ghz Exynos processor 2 weeks before the Primes announcement? All this with rumors suggesting the OMAP processors have been behind in production?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dev_man77:
If the Nexus line holds true to its trends, it will probably be a Verizon phone for some months before they release it to other carriers like they have done with T-mobile in the past. I would like to get my hands on a nexus phone for development sakes only. They always have a ton of support and constant updates. But whos to say that phone wont have a fluke bug in it either. every phone that comes out seems to have some bugs that can get ironed out and some that cant.

So far I have experienced zero major bugs with my device and has been the best release of a phone that I have gotten my hands on ever, and ive owned 5 in the last 2 years. I even switched from T-mobile to Sprint for coverage reasons in my area and dont see myself paying $$$ for Verizon and its LTE when it will never be in my area or get the 4G signal indoors. Especially if sprint is announcing the switch over to LTE. Boohoo if my phone wont be compatible, I will have a new upgrade by the time i see any of that in my area.

na dawg, I just dont see how all of this speculation belongs in this forum.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] r3a1ist:
All good points I agree and am in the same boat. I think sprint will get the prime. I find it suspicious they didn't advertise the EG4T. It was almost like they felt bad. We'll know in 2 weeks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BlueGoldAce:
Here is my unrequest opinion.

It is a hardware race. Will the screen, processor, and battery life be better in the prime/galaxy s2 HD? Yes.

Will some of us go speed a large amount of money as a result? Yes, and I am not excluding myself.

But again, it is just a hardware race. Is there anything out there now, or in a year that will even challenge our phones? No, not a chance. This phone is truly a 2 year phone. I am sure of that.

Do we need a HD screen? No...the screen on this phone is awesome. Actually the hd screen on the prime and galaxy hd will have a pentil matrix...making the pixel density closer to that of our phones then one might think.

Overall...the new exynos will be better. But who the hell is going to notice. I am willing to bet, that besides benchmarks, our phone will do everything just as smooth as the new exynos. Honestly...the samsung created hardware in our phone is that good.

Hopefully, I am right...and not incorrect like I as with the evo3d. I thought the evo3d would be as smooth as any phone...but this phone just made me eat my words. I love it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bigjim1488:
I'm going to have to fight the urge to get the prime! Going from evo3d to photon to epic is less then two months is just too much already. I think I have a phone problem
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] r3a1ist:
Yup, all valid points. T mobile has announced its gs II release today, it will be on the 10th after google anounced an announcement with samsung that will be on the 11th just yesterday. Just another funny freakin sammy development of many I've noticed recently.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] r3a1ist:
I've done the same minus the 3d and am now returning my e4gt that I am absolutely in love with. Worst comes to worst i'll order it again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] r3a1ist:
I'm also gonna stop posting on this topic because i dont want to piss my e4gt bros off that intend on staying loyal to this awesome phone.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
Just an FYI, this SOC won't be in a Sprint phone till late spring, early summer of next year, so the only 1.5GHz phones we(Sprint) will see are going to be based on the Qualcomm chip for now, which I expect at least 1 or 2 to phones by Christmas(mostly HTC tho)

[GUIDE] All-in-One Defy Beginner's guide

2nidInit Recovery

Motorola Defy Wiki

and i`v manage to root the phone with SuperOneClickRoot and installed Defy 2ndInit from android market.

Ok, all went well until this point, now comes the problem, rebooted the phone twice like described in 2ndInit and at the third reboot i went in custom recovery menu by pressing vol down button.

I want to make a backup of actual ROM(NANDROID Backup) using CustomRecovery and when i hit backup i get the fallowing error:

E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblock0)

(No such file or directory)

Error mounting SDCARD:!

Even tried Fix permissions, but still with no luck.

Thanks in advance and waiting for your advices.
[Defy General] marhensa:
as far as i know, cmiiw.

2ndInit+recovery can't be used on eclair build.

updgrade to froyo first mate,

do wipe data and wipe cache, from stock recovery (vol.down + power, when powering up, touch lower right corner of screen to get the menu)

then after wiping, reboot, and press vol.up + power to get to bootloader

flash full sbf of froyo then with rsd lite.

after you get froyo, install 2ndInit.
[Defy General] starlays:
Thank you for your time and answer.

I understood your answer partially, i understand that i need to update to froyo. You given me some instruction, but i`m a beginner in custom rom-ing, so please if you can point me step by step, or give me some links to some guides so i can read and understand and know how to make all the thins that you told me i`ll be grateful.

For this do i need to unroot and uninstall 2andinit?

How can i upgrade?

When do i need to do this? before update or after update? Why is this necessary?

When? before update or after update?

You told me to:

and then to make all the operation and then you are telling me to flash full sbf froyo, so when are the intermediary operation done? Please be more specify as i am an absolute beginner.

Thank you and i hope that i`m not to annoying with all my questions.

Thank you.

Looking forward to the 1.0.25 release.
[HTC Sensation] str8upx:
Some video file types aren't compatible, but the majority are. You can just download the ones that wont stream and play them. The "skipping files error" is related to your internet connection. Try using 4G or WiFi if possible. (or a wired connection to the computer) it should help. Were working on the new version so hopefully it will drop soon.
[HTC Sensation] pimpmaneaton:
Issue that I have found.

So the one issue that I have found so far is that when I'm just looking through "Files" and I have a pictures file set up. Once I go into that I can see all of my sub folders, then once I enter the sub folder to look at the pictures it just times out and says that my computer at home that is hosting the files must not be online. This only happens when on 4g, if on wifi then I can pull up the pictures and scroll through them pretty much like I'm in the gallery of my phone. Also have video issues but I'm pretty sure that is related to the file types that I have, everything works GREAT if I use my laptop at work and go through the browser. This is a great app and program. Thanks for this.

I am in the market for my first tablet, and I think I have cut it down to 2 the Galaxy Tab 10.1 or the Transformer. What is your opinions on both, which would you recommend? I will be using the tab for movies, web surfing, gaming, you know average use. I do want to be able to root it and I do know the B70 and on models for the transformer cant be root yet.

Let me know what you guy think.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] glitzbd:
Well I just got my 10.1 today and I enjoy it so far... I almost got the TF but went with the GTab 10.1 due to the size! It is a lot lighter and for the aforementioned things I think you wouldn't be wrong in picking either but as far as carrying it around I think the 10.1 wins out!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] rkstoops:
I was also interested in the Transformer, but got the Galaxy Tab. I love it! So thin and light, and the screen is much brighter than the Transformer I looked at. I do love the keyboard for the Asus and the ports. I wish the Tab had more ports rather than the proprietary connector, but am glad with my purchase. I bought the Samsung keyboard dock and love it too. Also, I think Touchwhiz is an upgrade to Honeycomb. I can't believe I'm saying that, but I think it makes it better.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] seh6183:
Take it from someone who had a transformer and a 10.1 at the same time. Go with the galaxy tab. I only now have the galaxy and couldn't be happier.

The asus doesn't have an oleophpbic coating which in my opinion is a deal baker. I would go to show it to someone and the thing was so smudgy and gross no one wanted to touch it. Deal breaker.

Also the build quality on the asus isn't up to par, the copper trim flaked off very easily and it had massive light bleed. The thing seemed thin and compact when I first got it but after getting my galaxy tab it made the asus look like a boat.

Can't go wrong with a 10.1 on a modded rom!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] canadaboy37:
I was in the same boat, too. I went back and forth, and I was ready to purchase the Transformer because of the price even though I prefer the design of the Tab.

Fortunately, I found a deal on the GT which removed the only benefit the TF had (for me), and it will be here tomorrow.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jonnyg1097:
I agree with this. I was (pretty much like everybody here) looking to get the galaxy tab 10.1 or Transformer but I am happy with my decision of getting the tab. Although seeing the S1 and having it as an option while shopping for a tablet I would definitely consider the S1 as my tablet of choice.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] K Rich:
Go to a store and TRY THEM OUT. That's what I had to do. I wanted a transformer till I felt the GT in my hands
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] darktranquility18:

I've never had a problem buying factory refurbs. I know most times you get a reduced warranty, but I run an electronics repair shop so I'm not that worried. Best Buy has refurbs for $399.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Erusman:
Get the Galaxy tab. I had the Asus transformer and took it back to Best Buy (3 times). Each one had backlight light leakage. I tried the Sony tablet as well. It was a very nice tablet. I would be using it right now instead of the Galaxy. But the materials used with the Sony is awful. The front felt like plastic. Plus I didn't like the S curve design.
