t-mobile is cheap and down my alley.
[Networking] LFrank342:
loved this deal.

i've been with t-mobile for the past 2 years thanks to studentrate.
[Networking] MntClmr:
i got the 10% about a month ago.

thanks
[Networking] jolined:
student rate just redid their website.

the facebook fanpage is also pretty neat, http://www.facebook.com/studentrate
[Networking] RamonsFisk:
the website it A LOT better than before.

you actually want to explore the website.

good job guys
[Networking] MntClmr:
just "liked" the fan page.

and i was a member of student rate before they changed the site, but it looks really cool.
[Networking] magsbrown:
ya I totally agree, the site looks sick. I'm shocked this thread is still going haha and I still have my discount woop
[Networking] CeBits:
I wish I realized that you are all talking about US T-mobile before I called :)

The lady was very kind tho, went thru all the documentation of hers before she realized there is no such offer here.
[Networking] jolined:
Family plan?

So I'm on a family plan and I'm wondering how this works?
[Networking] LFrank342:
to the poster 2 people above me...what? This deal is for the US.

the discount does apply to a family plan, but I'm sure theres a limit (you cant have 50 people on your "family plan" just reaping the benefits of the discount haha. anyone know what the limit is?
[Networking] Lizzy345:
the discount just applies to you and whoever else is on your family plan.
[Networking] Tricksie:
sweet, the deal's still up. definitely don't have to be a current student right?
[Networking] Lizzy345:
was just able to add my brothers to my line yayyy
[Networking] Lizzy345:
no, you don't have to be a student =)
[Networking] APGordon:
thanks for the information. i actually prefer calling to trying to figure it out online...i like talking to a real person and getting it done right.
[Networking] MissyThinks:
yesssss deal's still on
[Networking] xxhaimbondxx:
I thought T-mobile doesn't offer contracts any more. They do have the bestest deal on data, I was able to get unlimited high speed for $5 per line.
[Verizon Droid Charge] starcreamxb:
My phone is boot looping right now and w. the phone off I plug the phone into a power source and this pops up on the screen. I was just wondering if its charging while this screen comes up? I'm asking because usually u can c the the battery icon filling up with a green meter going through it. Anyone?
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
It's not AFAIK. Charging while off is still controlled by the kernel. If it won't boot, then the phone has some kernel/ROM problems, and therefore won't charge.
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
It should still be charging, but if that screen stays up and the screen won't turn off, it will not charge very fast, if at all (depends on the charging method).
[Verizon Droid Charge] ace5198:
Download and flash stock 2.3.6 odin with pit file.. Boot.. Flash newest recovery.. Flash ROM of choice via new cwm.. Profit (who Cares if its charging)
[Verizon Droid Charge] nismology:
Agreed when my phone was soft bricked that battery icon screen came up so they I thought it was charging but it really wasn't. When I finally got the phone into a working state the thing was pretty much dead.
[Desire HD General] g00seHD:
Hi,

I've got an odd one I've only just noticed since the upgrade (though, I cannot guarantee that was the cause).

i can no longer get a GPS fix when using an app that calls for satellite data. The notify icon just keeps flashing. I've downloaded various GPS test apps and they all show no evidence of any signal. I've tried clearing AGPS data; clearing google maps data/cache; removing and re-installing google maps updates (all the usual suggested fixes for the previous 2.3 issues.

However, it WILL work if I unmount the SD card from the phone. it finds the satellites fine. But as soon as adding the card again, it fails.

I don't really want to reformat the card so I'm looking for suggestions of possible files to delete. So far, I've tried /mnt/sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.maps/cache but that didn't work.

Any ideas on what else to wipe?

thanks
[Desire HD General] Matz88:
this problem also affect my phone, please help us
[Desire HD General] g00seHD:
Had some success last night (until I got too tired and cold standing outside).

It seems to have something to do with the built in HTC Locations application. If I go onto the SD card and delete the files (with the exception of the default footprint images) within .data/navigation and reboot, then GPS works OK.

If I reinstall Locations and use the app (bring up maps, navigation mode etc) it will eventually kill off GPS again.

I'll try some more tests to be more specific, it seems to be important to fully reboot the device before testing for a GPS signal after making changes which is a bind...

I expect the final solution will be (if you want to keep a stock ROM unrooted and it's not later fixed by an upgrade) to delete some location files from the SD card, install an HTC Locations stopper application from the market - so that calendar and contacts stop bringing up Locations rather than Google maps - don't use any Locations widgets and avoid firing Locations up.
[Desire HD General] yusy_bh:
I have the same problem since I updated Radio version to 26.14.04.28_M. I tried many Roms (sens roms, Cyanogenmod, MIUI) and all has the same issue with GPS!!.

So I am waiting for new radio version!! :(
[Desire HD General] yusy_bh:
after Re-flashing 26.09.01.11_M2 Radio My phone can get GPS signal in less than 15 seconds :) and it's working perfectly!!
[Desire HD General] jeffjoker:
I have had this problem too

Will try the radio flash

Thanks mate
[Desire HD General] g00seHD:
Sorry for the delay - it's just got weirder.

Even after trying the fixes I did below - it started behaving the same - no GPS satellites found (unless the SD card is pulled).

However, it works fine if I'm away from the house (half a mile or more). Different city, works fine etc. and it keeps working until I get near my home, then it can't find satellites (unless the SD card is pulled)....!!!!

Some local information is causing this but I've no idea. I've tried clearing the assisting data but that doesn't help.

Cheers for any suggestion.
[Desire HD General] randomBit:
gps in India

did anyone get the fix for the GPS lock delay?

Cant get a lock after Sense3.0 update. Bad that HTC did not do proper testing.
[Desire HD General] g00seHD:
In the end, I found out that it only wouldn't lock when I was at home - other locations were fine.

In the end I got it to work - for how long I don't know. But I switched off wifi and mobile data, then changed the config to not update location and time from mobile network. Shut down and then pulled the battery.

Started it up again. Turned on network time.

Waited a while, turned on mobile data. Waited a while and then rang a GPS tester and it worked (took a while to lock for the first time. Turned on wifi, checked again and it's been fine since.
[Desire HD General] saad_81:
The Achille's heel for desire hd has been its gps. It screws up after a few months anyway.
[Desire HD General] iNonymous:
have you tried any other SDcard? If it works with another SDcard, download Titanium Backup (or any other backup app which allows you to backup online) and then buy the Titanium Backup Pro Key app or buy with PayPal and backup your apps, then sync to dropbox.

Watch the videos for both of the apps when in Market.

EDIT: NVM, but the backup app is recommended for everyone if you use to install custom ROMs.

Might not affect us at first, but you can be sure we will be seeing ICS Sense soon, either officially or via a leak.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
This needs to just hurry up already. And if they release it to the Thunderbolt first, well, that'd just be silly.
[HTC EVO 3D] jasKaos:
Is it confirmed to have sense 4.0 or will it be a fresh stock of ics?
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
I'm sure it'll be the same as the Sensation leak. Sense 3.5 with some changes.

[HTC Incredible S] slugger09:
Its kind of hard to explain, I have reasonable signal at home but its like sometime it can't find my network at sits at no signal, if I manual scan it finds every network but my own, I have to restart the phone and all is fine again until I go into an area with no signal, the only way to get the signal back is a restart. Even when I do have signal however it can't be trusted either, late messages, missed calls etc, its almost like cell scanning or whatever just locks up

You should put this on xda marketplace.

You are looking to trade different network phones so it will be a tough trade. But you may get some interest in the marketplace depending on how much cash you will add.

go into facebook and tell it to sync contacts. if the contacts dont match letter for letter the phone wont sync the pics.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ralph0015:
There is also an app in the market that will do that as well. I think it is called syncmypix or something like that.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MH-60R:
Thanks Ive tried both and the app syncmypics works ....somewhat
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ralph0015:
It worked for me pretty well. What is the issue?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XRaptor29:
if facebook doesn't sync correctly you can manually do it. go into contacts select the contact you want and edit it. once in the edit hit menu and there should be an option to join. click that and it should find it or you may need to manually find it. I havent ran CM in awhile so its ruff remembering that. but it should be around that.

syncmypix always works for me, never had any issues.
[HTC Rezound] zonbal33:
The Rezound is now $199 online at VZW.com. I wonder if they will honor our "worry free" period and give us the difference back?

I upgraded to the GNEX and was told I had to the 15th to return it. I did return for a $35 restocking fee, then go the Rezound. Can I still get $100 credited? What should I say to the CSR, I have a feeling that aren't going to give in easily?

They must have a lot in stock, surplus or b/c of the sales decline in HTC.

EDIT: Just got off the phone with the rep, he credited my acct $100 of my next bill. I don't know if thats because I had until Jan 15th until my "worry free" grace period was up or if they will honor everyone? I would try it though, he didn't give me any problems when I asked for it. He actually said he had no idea there was a price drop.
[HTC Rezound] brisdaddy1207:
They usually do if you buy it within 30 days, so it wouldn't hurt to try and post your results. Good luck
[HTC Rezound] brisdaddy1207:
Tell them you bought the phone for the $299 and now its on sale. I did that with the thunderbolt they sent me letter with $50 dollars off and the price also dropped a $100 so they gave me $150 off three weeks later.
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
For what it's worth, I bought it from Verizon on the 5th (Thursday) for $269.99, called this morning and had a $100 credit already applied to my account. I ordered online and haven't even received the phone yet.
[HTC Rezound] cableguy1:
Just in time! My upgrade day is sat the 14th. I've been checking it every day cuz I'm cheap and I refuse to pay $300. Can't wait...
[HTC Rezound] AtLemacks:
I doubt for those of us who bought it day 1 will get anything. I mean it has been 2 months. They are probably prepping for all the CES releases.

Funny thing, their "flagship" Razr, and Nexus are still $299.
[HTC Rezound] jskolm:
What did you call in and say? I bought mine the same say and I am waiting for mine in the mail too and was just about to call.
[HTC Rezound] DIncLover:
Nothing exceptional. I just explained I purchased it on Thursday online, and noticed that the price dropped $100 today. I said, "Can I get a credit applied, or do I need to refuse delivery and reorder", but I doubt it's even necessary to say that.

Just ask for the credit. There won't be a problem with timing of a few days.

---------- Post added at 06:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:30 PM ----------

Hopefully this will increase interest in the phone.... and increase the pace of development activity!!
[HTC Rezound] zonbal33:
Worked for me, first try. All he did was call the store to confirm the price and credited me the money on my next bill. He didn't give me any problems, all I said was I ordered the phone for $299 and I saw $100 price drop.
[HTC Rezound] jskolm:
I just got off the phone with Verizon. I have to wait until I accept the delivery and activate the new phone before they can issue me a credit.

FYI, Verizon offers a 14 day price guarantee (that's what the rep told me on the phone), So if you ordered yours within the last 14 days, call in and get your money! :)
[HTC Rezound] tbgreen89:
If I bought my phone at the Verizon store do you guys think they will honor the 100?

[HTC Rezound] AtLemacks:
Rep I just spoke with said they only honor price changes up to 15 days after purchase. I asked about the people who bought it during the holiday return period and she said no. I was nice to her, and she was nice back, incase anyone is curious how the convo went.
[HTC Rezound] maniac2k:

Now... I'm waiting for it to be $99 :-)

I have always been an early adopter and paid full price when things come out. My current Droid Incredible works fine for what I use it for so I will just wait a bit. Figure another month perhaps and $99 will be the new price. Keep the other $200 I saved for other toys.

if you were an early adopter I don't think you'd be rocking the original incredible...

Hey guys,

I live in India and been looking for a good phone...and now this from nowhere and I am more than happy.

But the problem is, its Verizon. What will the price be without contract? Or will the Asian variant of the Rezound also see a price drop? Can I ask friends/cousins to get it picked and then get it shipped in India & use it here?

Only GSM networks work here, not CDMA btw..

Could someone plz answer my query?

[HTC Rezound] racerx2oo3:
I'm seeing this show up as $149.99 with my loyalty discount, but I'd much rather order though Amazon since I'll save quite a bit on the sales tax. Amazon still has the price listed at $249 for family plan upgrades. Anyone know if Amazon will price match Verizon?

If any of you bought one through Bestbuy in the past 30 days they will honor there price match guarantee and refund you $100 plus tax.
[HTC Rezound] AtLemacks:
Could be quite possible. Remember the Bionic? lol, 2 months later Rezound and Razr, a month later, the Nexus.

I would stick with a true gsm phone instead of trying to jump through hoops to get a rezound to work there.

There are plenty of great gsm phones.
[HTC Rezound] WasabiWa83:
The Razr actually just dropped to $199, as well. They also have purple and white coming. Still, I purchased the Rez full price because I used my upgrade on the DX2 and just wanted this one. Still worth every single penny I paid. :D
[HTC Rezound] circleofomega:
Agree. But this one's a monster and with this price, I must be only blind to not get lured! Anyways...you are right...now with CES going on, at least the lower end models' price SHOULD drop...!

After seeing VZW lowered their price to $199, I checked costco (membershipwireless.com) and it's $169. And I don't think Costco will tax you on the $649 price that verizon does. Think I'm headed to costco this week.
