[EVO 4G General] fenixjn:
In short you wont be able to pull this. 4G is considered a feature... as long as you have regular service Sprint is doing its part on the contract... now if the calls drop like crazy and you dont get any signal you might have a way out..

CAS are completely and utterly useless. The only ones who benefit from these are the lawyers who get paid in the thousands or even millions while the ppl they represent not only get a rate hike (hey someone has to foot the bill for the amount the company paid to the lawyers or did you think the stockholders would be happy to know their money was used to pay off the suit?) but they get a measly coupon for like 10% off any accessory or a $2 credit and no noticeable change to the terms they were trying to fight against.

If you really want to make a difference all you need is to get out of Sprint either by paying the ETF or waiting patiently for another 'considerable' change to the contract's terms as they seem to pop every 6 months or so and spread the word...
[EVO 4G General] Evocm7:
I know. I, along with thousands, if not millions are in this sanger boat as you. Got mine Nov 2010. Was promised 4g by march, nothing. Then it was july, nothing. Then end of summer, nothing. I had about written it off then I heard about the lte network. So I won't have 4g for maybe another year. Eh, whatever. We can ***** all we want, its not going to make things happen any faster. Would be great if 3g was as fast as it used to be to make the wait easier. Its either wait it out or go pay out the ass for verizon or att, neither of which are worth the price IMO, especially att. Guess I'll just wait like everyone else.
[EVO 4G General] {ParanoiA}:
You may want to try this. You can use it to get better signal if you are in an area with ishtty sprint coverage OR use it to get kicked outta your contract if that's what you're looking for;)
[EVO 4G General] kd0axs:
No, actually you can't. Read Sprint's terms and conditions. Specifically, the section regarding dispute resolution.

[EVO 4G General] snowboarda42:
I thought I remembered reading an email from Sprint that basically let you out of your contract with ETF's since they changed the terms of the contract. Might just call and ask.
[EVO 4G General] kd0axs:
Yes, if they change the terms of your contract you get the opportunity to get out with no ETF. I don't think they have changed any contract terms recently though.
[EVO 4G General] .Elite_The_King.:
Well if you want to opt out of the contract you should try the PRL mod it lets you roam on verizons towers and sprint wont like that and will cancel ur contract if you dont mind.

Or just wait for LightSquared LTE its gonna be the best of all .

Heres some videos to keep your hopes up. which should be up by mid 2012.

I just talked to Sprint about lousy 3g speeds here in Kansas City Missouri. My contract is done in February, and so am I. Verizon here I come.
[EVO 4G General] rkeenan:
I am pretty disgusted with Sprint as well. I live in Omaha, NE. I have a 4G signal about 2 miles from my apartment but they won't flip the switch to allow the whole city to have it. Verizon has had 4G LTE in Lincoln and Omaha since September. This is beyond unacceptable, its retarded. It amazes me that they want to alienate their small customer base in the Midwest, especially since they are based out of Overland Park, KS. Since they decided to spend money on Apple and the iPhone instead of carry through with their promise of WiMax in 2011, I hope they are bought out by Verizon or that they go bankrupt. I have terrible data speeds and I am flat out sick of Sprint's lying.
[EVO 4G General] evocalante:
You might have to pay more for att or Verizon but I rather pay for better service then deal with sprints lousy service I'm done. I would pay only $10.00 more with att so not breaking the bank.
[EVO 4G General] iloveandroid16:
Go to t-mobile I live in a small city and look at my speeds on there HSPA +

[EVO 4G General] xgicop:
Will it take 2 more years for Sprint to bring their new LTE to most of the country?
[EVO 4G General] bebeau25:
Just wanted to let you guys know I called sprint and got the $10 data charge waived for one month due to slow data speeds. I had them look at my data usage over the last couple months and told them the drop was due to slow speeds.

This has me so mad @ Sprint. When my contract is up this spring, I'm not sure if I'll be staying with Sprint.
[EVO 4G General] SharkUW:
Nope, I'm in your precise situation and it's why I'm doing everything I can to rape their network until I'm dropped. Check out that "hack the htc evo" thread. They did not represent themselves honestly.
[EVO 4G General] DMCunningham:
I'm about 3 hours north of Sprint's 4G here in Ohio. I signed on because they said that in about 6 months (from the time I signed) my area should be up and running. I should have paid attention to the "should be" part.
[EVO 4G General] kd0axs:
If you aren't happy with Sprint's service, why don't you just switch carriers? All you are doing is driving up costs for the rest of us.
[EVO 4G General] SharkUW:
ETF and spite
[EVO 4G General] Evo4gLI:
Yes, you can. I just did the exact same thing, and they let me out of my contract ETF free after being with them for only 5 months. Call up, and be nice. If you're rude, they're not going to help you. Explain the situation exactly as you have here, which is what I did, and they let me out on the first try. The only thing is that I have to send my phones back to them, which they may or may not make you do. I bought the Rezound from Amazon for a penny, and I'm back on Verizon within 2 days of cancelling. Don't demand, just ask nicely, and you might get what you want. I did.

[Focus General] StriderNo9:
How is the battery life of your Focus S? I tend to do a lot of updating and some streaming, I am not getting more than 10 hours. Very low, but I as I said, I update a lot of apps and feeds, so I assume if I lay off it will be better. How is your battery life?
[Focus General] adiliyo:
yesterday was the first full day i had with it, and i took it off the charger around 11am and when i got back at 330am, it still had about 30% left.

and it was a moderate to high moderate day of usage for me (listened to podcasts in the car for about 2 hours total, music at work for about 2 hours, updated posts, read facebook/twitter/websites, played some games.

i also have okay to poor reception at work, so that probably didn't help battery issues when i moved into areas with poor reception.

so in conclusion, i'm quite happy with how well it's holding up so far, as good as the original focus i had, if not even better.
[Focus General] StriderNo9:
Hmm right now with pretty high use, I have 10% left and thats because it went into battery saver mode like 1.5 hours ago. I took it off the charger at 7AM, it's 4:47PM now.
[Focus General] prubin:
Seems to be the same as the Focus. Need to have several recharging cycles before a determination can be made as to actual "life".
[Focus General] clfosk:
I haven't paid attention to battery life much yet but today I listened to music for an hour, used my phone for 4 hours straight (mostly browsing internet with WiFi off), and then let my phone sit for an hour and it was down to 10%. Medium brightness.
[Focus General] djdurance:
Anyone have a change to try it on the WP Benchmark battery test?
[Focus General] nickywaldo:
Focus S battery

I was in Austin TX yesterday. Unplugged my phone at 6am, but was in meetings most of the day. By 5pm I was down to 30% battery. i.e., very little usage.

I do sync my ME mail account every 30mins (I get about 50 emails a day in this account) and my Exchange account is set to push (I get up to 200 emails a day on that account). I am also signed in to Facebook, Linkedin, whattsapp and Twitter, but did not use them much (ie. a dozen messages max). I have also set my "run in background" option to off for all apps.

Today in Portland OR. Unplugged at 6am made a couple of calls for a total of about 90 minutes and I am at <50% by 11am....

I agree it needs a few more days of recharge cycles, but it is not looking very good to me..

Love the phone though.

Nick
[Focus General] StriderNo9:
This is the 3rd day in a row where I come home with a dead phone. I take it off the charger at 8AM go to work, I sync my Facebook and my Twitter, I have a weather app running, I have two twitter apps (testing which I like better) and I listen to maybe an 1.5 hours of podcast total. At 5:30 my phone is dead. I need to do further tests to see if its something I am doing.
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
Try this:

- Brightness to low

- Disable all background apps (launch'em when you really need'em)

And see the difference (was quite big for me, for Focus).
[Focus General] StriderNo9:
Well for now I turned off all my background apps, when I unplug my phone off the charger at 8AM it said I have a day and 9 hours left, after an 40 mins of music and some texting its down to 23 hours, so while that isn't bad, a drop off of 10 hours in less than 2 hours is odd.

I'll try to play with it a bit more and see what is causing the drastic drop.
[Focus General] EnderPsp:
It's not odd. The 1day 9h is the standard assumption on battery time by the OS. In reality, battery time can be more (eg days on standby) or less (eg 8-9h video playback). If you start using the phone, the OS will update it's prediction on battery time, hence the drop you noticed.
[Focus General] StriderNo9:
3 Hours since last full charge, and now I have 19 hours left at 74%. I have listened to some music, downloaded two apps and that's about it. Some text messages I guess.
[Focus General] frankguillenjr:
I'm pretty happy with my battery life, what is bother me is the sound quality coming out of the headphone jack. It sounds way too flat and too low in volume, I compared it with the my iPhone 4 and Galaxy S2 and it is no competition? Anyone else noticed this? By the way this is the first WP7 phone I get, and I love WP7. This will be the platform I will stay on :)
[Focus General] djdurance:
Just ran the battery benchmark. Focus S ran for 4:30 versus 3:37 for the Focus.

[HTC EVO 3D] simpat1zq:
I already have the 3vo, and I was shopping for a phone for my wife, and I saw that they now have a plum colored one. So it was a no brainer for me. I had no idea they had another color available. Just thought there might be others that might be interested. Here's the link to it.
[HTC EVO 3D] lchupacabras:
I also got ahold of one of these plum colored beauties and I must say the colour is very very nice; having said that I'm starting to question whether or not it's worth all the trouble...

Let me explain, the first plum 3vo I got from Sprint ran perfectly fine but had a tilted screen and dust started gathering underneath it after a week; the first Sprint tech I went to about this was friendly enough and quickly set up a replacement unit for me. I waited a week, they called me in and took my handset for the replacemnt... Then it turns out the replacement unit was a black device. It also did not come with the battery cover so at that point I was the proud owner of a two tone device... I politely asked them if they can get me a matching front and they agreed and say they'll call me back when said device comes in. Two weeks later and I hadn't heard from them so I went to my closer Sprint location and they let me know nothing was put in for that replacement but would be happy to assist me in getting the correctly coloured phone. Week and a half went by and I'd received no call from THAT shop so I call them to ask for info on the status of the order. They shrugged it off and said it could be another week and that they would call ME. So I waited another week.

Yesterday I called back and spoke with a different agent who seemed a bit more patient and actually checked on the status of the order. Nothing had been put in for my account AGAIN... he apologized and put in for a rush delivery on the handset. Today I went into the store and inquired about my ordered replacement; "hasn't come in, we'll call you call you tomorrow for sure the order is in, etc."

I received a call two hours afterwards, even though the agent I spoke to earlier assured me they had received all of their orders for today, saying my replacement is in.

"Great, I'll pick it up tomorrow... Can you check on the colour for me?"

"Black."

"Ugh."

Tomorrow should be a fun trip to say the least.

Edit: Went to sprint store tonight and got a fully black/red model; they said they would "let me know" when the plum was available for replacement. I'm going to the corporate office tomorrow or call them up and see what else can be done... sigh...

Funny little tid-bit; apparently, (I'm taking these peeps' words with a grain of salt) after the 4th replacement phone you are eligible to swap out for another type of device... hmmm.... we shall see :3

Thank you for testing the first Captivate version and for encourage me to release this version. I patched this version with all the changes that existz (many many thanks) suggested. 1.8.2 version is very well tested for i9000, but I still call captivate version 'beta' since I don't have a captivate to test it.

If someone can answer, will be helpful to decide whether to flash.

FWIW, I know I actually disabled my search button because I was getting Ghost pushes of it as well.

1.9.0 is my first attempt with Semaphore, just coming over from Talon. First flash caused some strange problems, I think related to my external SD. Went back to Talon for about a day, then decided to try Semaphore again on Saturday. Had one reboot when I tested OC 1300, since then I've been running pretty much stock Semaphore, and it's been absolutely amazing. The battery life, the smoothness, the speed, everything is amazing, I absolutely love this kernel. Btw, running it on Mosaic 8. Going to try flolep's configurations next, but probably without Thunderbolt! for now.

Thanks for your feedback.

OC to 1300MHz causes problems to many people. Not many devices can handle this frequency (at least with Semaphore). But if you want OC you should try 1200MHz. :)

Hi stratosk I just have a few issue with the kernel about the new implement init.d.ori when I install thunderbolt had a hard time making it stay on init.d sometimes it ramdomly switch all the init.d files to the init.d.ori. Im not even oc I know it a safe mechanism for oc file but why not just include a cwm.zip to the sd card to delete the oc script just my opinion its really a pain for me to check my init.d if it transfer to the init.d.ori always. Right now its stable yesterday was like it happen 6 times after I install the thunderbolt other than that I love the kernel

Flash a stock root gb captivate base rom then use sgs tools there is an option on the secret code touchscreen firmware revision choose that update the touchkey FW update wait for it update when its finish you can flash any rom that you want as long you don't go back to stock using odin your capacitive button should be ok.

Note you need to be on stock root captivate base rom to do this if you try this on a I9000 base rom you will get stuck and need to take the battery off.
[Captivate Android Development] stratosk:
Hi,

Normally the init.d should be backed up and cleared if the phone does not complete 2 minutes of normal operation. So, if you reboot your phone before it will be cleared in next boot.

If this happens to you every time then I guess you have problem with additional busybox versions. Try to uninstall them and retry.

Anyway, I will include this feature as an option.
