and per my sprint portal etc etc..

"Starting with your February invoice, Sprint will now separate the primary line from the secondary line for all Family and Business Share plans. Your plan and its features will not change. While Sprint continues to be the value leader, we must make changes on occasion to deliver what matters most to our customers. Sprint will no longer offer the service discount on secondary lines for Family and Business Share plans. However, the primary line on your account will continue to receive the service discount."

Family plan, 2 lines, etc

Joined Sprint in January (left verizon because of all their dicking around with fees and nickel and diming of data) and I've been pretty happy so far, but seems a bit odd that contract shenanigans are happening already.

They also called and left a message to call back regarding this, but I'm hesitant until I know exactly what their talking about. I'm expecting they'll give the usual corporate double talk and because I called, I'll have then indicated I accepted the new terms leaving me with no recourse while having no clue what this is about.

Any insight?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bielinsk:
I talked to a few folks about this. You can cancel because of this, and the ETF will be waived. Or you can stick it out. Its only a $5/month increase. But I hear ya, I don't like it either.

I have 3 lines, and Sprint is still about $40 a month cheaper than similar plans on Verizon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rdsnyder:
Could one pull one over on sprint and leave due to the changes with no ETF, then resign for discounted new phones? I already have the phones I want, but it seems like twice a year or so Sprint gives us an easy out. There must be something in the fine print, I'm sure I'm not the first to think of this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bielinsk:
Yes, but you will lose your number. I am rather sure this is possible though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gharlane00:
I believe you have to be gone for a year for them to consider you a new customer.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gibsonusa:
Not a year. I asked about this when I was on My 4th evo3d and was pissed they wouldn't do a multiple defect replacement. You have to be gone for 6 months. On the same call though the guy said a minimum of 45 days. So not sure what its worth. And you can't keep your number
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bbedward:
There's a waiting period before you can resign if you leave or are terminated. I think somewhere 30-90 days.

And you lose your number but you can avoid that by transferring it to a trac phone or something.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Aganar:
Could always flash to Boost Mobile or MetroPCS in the meantime if the Sprint coverage is good in your area. Those are on a strict month-by-month basis, so there's nothing stopping you from going to them until the time limit's up and going back to Sprint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Overstew:
I tested this etf free thing and they said it didn't affect my contract because it stated on my January bill that the discoint policy was changing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tydibean2012:
just to add to this, if you have a discount on your acct., sprint is now only going to take that discount off the first line ONLY, so be sure to watch that and maybe make a fuss so they take it off the whole acct ( retension dept can do so )
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abhaxus:
Honestly this topic has been beaten to death. I think this is the 3rd thread. As the kind of user most of us on xda are, I am surprised you signed up in January and didn't know this. That said, it's 5 bucks. I think it'd be crazy to leave if you're happy with the coverage over 5 bucks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sunsparc:
For an example, here's how the recalculation works:

Discount percentage: 23% (most common percentage I've seen in my area)

Old plan: Everything Data Share 1500 $129.99 for 2 lines.

New plan: Everything Data Share 1500 $109.99 for 1 line, 2-5 +$20.

So the new calculation is 23% x $109.99 instead of 23% x $129.99. Your price plan isn't changing, just the calculation of the discount. We've had a couple customers complain about this and it's really stupid some of the arguments we've heard.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] radrian92:
I was curious about this as well and the rep told me the same thing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abhaxus:
Honestly I don't think the arguments from customer's viewpoint are stupid, I just think that the other options are even worse.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
I have a problem with cell standby killing my battery. Its the single highest.used thing that is draining my battery (its over 30% and only other thing in that ballpark is the display) . The only mods I have added to stock is droidjunks power toggles. It seems like every time I change something on the bar up top with this phone, my cell standby becomes a serious battery killer.

Is there any reason for or solution to this problem? Any help would be appreciated.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Bfitz26:
are you between 3g 4g wifi i know when i toggle between wifi 4/3g it uses a lot of consumption just scaning for newworks etc.. and you might have power saver enabled so as soon as you turn your "off" it disables data and then you turn it back on it enables it sometimes it more harm than good... sorry i can't help more..
[Motorola Droid Bionic] YeloSub7:
Download juice defender from the market and play with that a little... Auto toggles data when you want it too (screen off, etc.) Makes my battery last at least 50% longer.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
I'm not messing with juice defender. I don't like apps that shut off data as a power.saving method.

My problem isn't typical as I've seen other users screenshots showing what is draining their battery and it's never over 30%. I didn't have the issue until I messed with the notification bar. Just curious to exactly what caused the issue and if anything can be done about it. I don't keep wifi, Bluetooth, or GPS on unless I am currently using it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
Sorry but juice defender doesn't work for me. I use too much data and too frequently to have it being shut off on me. I have professional email accounts that sync every 15 minutes. That's not the cause of the issue as I've been doing that far longer than I've had the issue.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] whodat70003:
Are you on .902?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
Yes. I'm going to try turning off 4g and see if that helps. That could be the problem because I just got 4g at my house a month ago.

Im more curious to exactly what happens in cell standby that would cause battery drain?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] silversonic1:
Cell standby is actually all of the power used by the cell radio, if I am reading this right.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
I believe so to. Im pretty sure its the 4g sucking my battery down. The first several months I had this phone, they didn't have 4g at my house yet.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] priddyma:
Just so you know Juice Defender has a setting which will turn your data on at an interval set by you and for a time set by you to sync even with screen off.

It's not like it just cuts the data because it feels like it. Juice defender works perfectly for me and has been one of the best apps I have purchased.

But to me it seems to most likely be that your 4g is on ALL the time.

With 1d 11h 6m 45s on battery, I get 9% for Cell standby, hell Facebook almost uses more battery than it (this is also a 3G only area).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jakson0100:
i think radio is consuming the power.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smokedkill:
I do know that, but I can't control when my email comes and need to receive it as soon as possible. For this reason, I can't have data even being shut off in predefined intervals.

I've currently turned off 4g to see if things improve. Unless your streaming videos or downloading larger files, 4g doesn't seem necessary for the majority of things.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tennvol12345:
Juice defender also has a whitelist feature so you can pick what apps will always have a data connection. So if your email account syncs every 15 mins then it will continue without interruption.

I've found that the cell standby happens when I'm in a fringe or low coverage area
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tucknology:
Lately I'm having the same problem. standby accounts for 41% of my battery drain. I'm draining at about 10% / hr with very light usage. Smoke let's stay in touch!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] priddyma:
Your email is already being checked at a set interval (default 15min)... unless you have changed it.

Which should i use overall? i like both but cant decide on which to use, currently locked BL, but i would like to hear your opinions to help me decide :) thanks in advance to all :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laneyofdeath:
Wolfbreak as development of zmod has stopped a while ago (also I pretty sure u need unlocked bl for cm) :) also wolfbreak is considered perhaps the overall favourite among x10 users but a relatively new rom (called feralab) is also excellently made rom.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDroidie626:
how stable is Feralab? also battery performance and general performance? as Wolfs is quite good :) but also thanks for heads up :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laneyofdeath:
Its lightning fast and excellent battery life (they both are to be fair) feralab is a bit more complicated to install though (not too hard though don't worry) PS ur welcome. :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDroidie626:
Just use Xrec to install and then few patches, just had a quick view over the thread, think il give that a good go, thanks again for the heads up :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laneyofdeath:
No probs :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Could one of you guys explain what this means

quote

"After installation for BOTH Bootloaders - open script manager, navigate to "~FeraLab~/Script" folder on your SDcard and open single file found there..new window will appear. There click on "Su" and "Boot" icons and click "Run" allow root access, wait a minute and then reboot".

Ive never even heard of script manager.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDroidie626:
Dont take my word 100% am a themer not a cook, from what i can see from fera there is a folder on SD called Scripts in the feralab folder, the next part is u run the file if you can, and if am correct run Superuser and allow its root, give it a min to configure and reboot, am not 100% sure on that tho, maybe ask on the feralab descussion forum, and script managers are on market, they allow edit of inbuilt scripts like your SH file, you use it for Supercharge files :) hope it helps.

(wont be held responsible for any damage to device)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Ah right thanks.

It looks like its a free app off market.

Gscript is a market app yes it may be included in latest version of feralab but I'm not sure
[Motorola Droid X2] viskey:
long story short ......with the new beats audio news out i flashed that and got stuck at the M logo on boot.

I pulled the battery plugged in and booted but still the same, stuck at M logo. Why is my bootstrap not working? i used it earlier today.

I also tried getting into the stock android recovery but then it just gets stuck at the android guy next to the triangle with the ! in the middle.

How do i get back into bootstrap so i can flash my nandroid backup! Thanks guys!

p.s. i have tried it numerous times hoping it would eventually work but nothing.

[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
Did you flash the zrecovery before you rebooted?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1426062

Might save you next time

Also if you wiped data your bootstrap will be gone.
[Motorola Droid X2] viskey:
not sure what zrecovery is?

i have the bootstrap recovery installed and have been using that for months without a hitch, just after i flashed the beats audio zip this morning (in bootstrap), i can't get it to even boot. im stuck at the M logo. and if i pull the battery and plug in, it won't even start up to bootstrap. I just want to flash my nandroid backup:(
[Motorola Droid X2] viskey:
i didn't wipe data, just flashed the zip. chose reboot in Bootstrap like normal and bam, stuck at M logo.....any way to force back into bootstrap? I was literally just in bootstrap 1 hr ago so i know its there....just not loading
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
Not that I aware of besides doing a sbf rooting again and installing bootstrap and then you can restore your nano back up.
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
Be sure to pull the battery for 30 sec put back and then plug in to get cwr to boot. Or Then try to access stock recov pwr on & rocker down to wipe data.
[Motorola Droid X2] viskey:
Thanks for the help!
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
As far as I know, the only way to get into bootstrap is through the bootstrap app itself. Which you need to be able to get into your phone to do. I do think you can get into it by rebooting while plugged in but maybe this doesnt work if you did something to mess up the startup. As was mentioned already, your only choice most likely is to SBF, root and install bootstrap again and then restore your backup.
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
I beg to differ. As long as charge mode was never put back to normal which is also a mistake.:eek: :)
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
if u have BSR installed and u haven't wiped data or flashed any new ROM, u can just power down/battery pull and u will boot into BSR, it hijacks charge only mode
[Motorola Droid X2] Pixelation:
sending out an SBF, my God there are great tutorials here in General and Android Dev sections... Cwr is not part of DX2 BSR is, but you wiped and lost that. To enter stock Android Recovery you just hit power button volume down...but that won't help you now...so just SBF and root then restore your backed up material through Titanium backup.... Install BSR and NANDroid back...you did make NANDroid backups I assume, if not I suggest starting to. Good luck

Dee Ex Two - See Em Seven
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Thats what I thought. But the OP cant get that to work from what I get. Is that method still supposed to work if you cant even boot the phone?
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
As long as you do not wipe data BSR should be installed. If you pull battery and put it back in before you even try to boot plug it in to wall charger. This will take you straight to BSR before you ever try to boot. Then you can get back to your nano back up.
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
"I also tried getting into the stock android recovery but then it just gets stuck at the android guy next to the triangle with the ! in the middle."

@ the triangle Push the middle of the rocker to get to stock recovery. (both up and down at same time)
[Motorola Droid X2] king..kranium:
Good advice skoodwiva. Is is safe to use stock recovery? If so why do we have a special one?
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Stock recovery wont allow you to flash stuff to the phone or backup your ROM or stuff like that. Thats why we have a special one to do those things.
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
Stock is good for flashing an ota (no need to rename just make it start w/ a number so it will be first in a mess of zips at the root of your external sd)

And wiping data.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
I'm not sure...been a while since I got to M logo stuck without wiping data or doing something that trashes BSR which would make it not work...

by the way viskey

what it's this "beats" zip u flashed??

ya i didnt wipe data, just as soon as i flashed the beats zip and did reboot in bootstrap it got stuck at M logo ever since. even battery pull and wait then retry while plugged in. tried numerous different attempts in different orders and still no bootstrap which i was in just prior to that (when i flashed beats)

oh and it puts beats audio on any gingerbread :) but sounds like i flashed the 2.3.5 when im on 2.3.4 so maybe thats why it got stuck at M logo. guess ill have to just sbf and then flash my nandroid when i get home. that god for nandroid:)
[Motorola Droid X2] viskey:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1525226

here is the correct thread that the dev that did the port started. Whatever you do, don't flash the zip that someone posted up on page 7 of the thread. that's the one i tried after the others didn't work...but sounds like its all fixed now and correct links in the OP
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:

Try just wiping data from stock recv.

FWIW the beats causes a big m hang even with the safe copy/paste method.
[Motorola Droid X2] viskey:
Thanks everyone for the help! Successfully sbf'd and restored my nandroid! I'm back up and running!
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
Glad you got it up and running! Maybe check out the link I gave you for the re recovery. It is made for that reason. Flash that last before hitting reboot now and you should be able to power down and plug in and get back to your recovery. Leave phone off.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @vtx:
I installed a new ROM (neutrino 2.5), I noticed now when I install an application now, at the top it gives me a notification, "tab here to configure privacy settings" (not verbatim). So I can go into an individual app and modify the settings. This is all fine and dandy but I have no idea how to get back to this menu once I modify the settings. Its a rom based on CM7 and I looked all over in the menus to find out where I can go back into the application and change the privacy settings, after I configured them on the initial install from the notification link. I locked some apps down too much and now they don't function properly.

It doesn't increase while flashing stock rom or kernel

It will increase if custom ones are flashed

So, if you' re under warranty only flash stock firmware.

[Thinkpad Tablet General] pocgoc:
I found these instruction whilst surfing, but a question popped up; Can you initiate the installation of a older Update.zip via Boot recovery method. To downgrade the tablet software version? I remember reading in the development section that it has to be signed with a signature key, but also to spoof the version of old update.zip to the same version at least as current version of the tablets' operating system.

Anybody any clues as to how to change the Update.zip version or which file contains the Meta info of the update.

I say its a hopeless method i came up with but it might inspire somebody else to a solution , or at least a small step in the right direction.

Is this possible? (but i say myself it is risky to downgrade, brick you TPT and its a expensive paper weight).
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Koshu:
The problem is, that an update not only has to be signed but to be signed with the lenovo keys. Unfortunately we don't have them. If we would get them we could install anything we want on every tpt version (even su and superuser.apk) or for what reason do you want to downgrade?
