I would personally just wait. Sprint will surely fix things as they are upgrading to LTE. I'll be moving to Texas from Michigan, and will be living near Houston, so there should be more towers there, and the speeds should be better for me. I'm sure things will only get better. I personally stuck to Sprint for the unlimited data plan. My connection was quite poor at first, but a new tower was built near where I currently live, it it's been miles better, I can't wait for it to be even faster :D

login to your sprint account, you can check your data usage there to see what plan you would need on verizon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eman3316@optonline.net:
This is the best advice so far and exactly what I did before I made the switch from Verizon to Sprint.

When I first looked into it, Verizon was not offering double data so with 2gigs at $30 it was definitely a no go for me. While my wife averaged 1 gig a month, I averaged about 3. 2 gigs is kind of a joke...

Then Verizon offered the double data plan once again so it got my interest and it came at a time when Sprint changed their discounts on line 2 getting out ETF free was available if I wanted to make the switch...

So now it was $30 for 4 gigs each line. Sounded much better but I still was not sure as unlimited still had a better ring to it. I was so back and forth for about 2 weeks. Not being able to stream video's and things like that without buffering for minutes was getting so frustrating! Seeing speed tests hit lower speeds then dial-up were very sad...

But 4 gigs...Would I be happy with it? Still wasn't sure. I do get a 22% discount from my job for Verizon but was told it does not come off of the data plan. That was until the rep I was speaking with said a magic line...He said if you get the $50 data plan, your discount will apply to that one or anything higher. At that point my brain started overheating...So with double data and my discount to the $50 data plan, I was looking at $39 for 10 gigs as opposed to $30 for 4gigs.

So this kind of sealed the deal for me. For $9 more I am getting an extra 6 gigs a month. I have never hit 10gigs or anywhere close to it in a month but it feels good knowing it is there...My wife has the 4 gigs a month and will never come close to that.

Has Verizon's network been better. Of course. 4G is all over the place and 3G is pretty usable as well for almost all things you would do on your phone.

Without a company discount I could not justify the price difference though as it would have just been to much of a difference over Sprint. With my discount it is only marginally more.

Do I miss Sprint. I do. I have been with them for around 14 years. I always felt like they were the cool company. But as they keep taking more and more away from their customers that kept us with them it was time to say goodbye. Will I come back to Sprint. Maybe when they are done with all their upgrades and their LTE rollout but right now it is unfair to even compare their network to Verizon or even AT&T for that matter.

Maybe Sprint should have fixed their network and did the LTE upgrade before removing their Premier program, discounts on any line above the 1st, raising ETF to $350, now raising TEP to $11. Sprint just keeps taking away but their network has been getting worse. If the network is going down hill how you can justify charging more?

If Verizon were to offer unlimited data to all customers for 1 month, would Sprint even have a single customer left? Unlimited data is the only thing saving them right now and if AT&T or Verizon were to challenge this for a month or two I think you might see T-Mobile become number 3 and Sprint drop down the list...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kawaski47:
That's is not a good way of gauging it. If you have faster data available to you then you are going to use more. Videos load faster, so you watch more videos and use more data.

For me I don't want to pay 90+ for a single line and gimp what's available to me. I pay 79 dollars a month AFTER tax for unlimited. I'm keeping that price and sticking it out for LTE. Shoot you can already see many people on here getting increased 3g speeds.

Plus I don't want to have to monitor my usage all the time. My bill has been the same on sprint.

What going wrong on the flashing with custom rom, we have root, bootloader unlocked, the flash of the kernel is smooth so the flash of the rom (CWM don't report any error), but something going wrong, because after i reboot the phone after i flash the rom the NEO is stucked with loading Sony boot logo for very long time (I left my phone in this status for almost 30 min, and nothing happened). So Anyone can help us? Or is just our phone?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] taaviu:
Kernel.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] emaxxim:
the kernel included in the KA05 Ice Cream release ( i follow step to step the instructions in that thread) and the kernel MT15i_Neo_ICS_Kernel_V1 which is write in the thread for the flash of AOSP 4.0.3 ICS BETA FINAL.

In both occasion I follow step by step the instruction in the thread, so what's going wrong?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] taaviu:
OK.

1st. Any roms starting max 5 minutes.!!!

If dont...then is problem in "kernel" or rom itself.

Something is wrong in updater script or build.prop

WIPE the stuff(system,data,cache,dalvik cache, whatever its written in ROM's first post) before flashing new ROM in zip.

In this case, most likely you didn't wipe/format system partition.

I follow the tips of kormatoes and integrated with the instrucions od madfish and everything is going fine, but there were some problems with that kernel, you kormatoes suggest me, so I tried to opt for the MT15i kernel, and its worked too.

Dear friends

I have been wondering if i can flash (sense 4.0) on the Ice Cream Sandwich build 3.32.401.5 for HTC Sensation? It has sense 3.6 i have googled and searched every were for an article that deals with that with no luck. I might be wrong or may be i was not using the right search words though as far as understand i did my homework before i use my last hope which is asking the experts thanks
[HTC Sensation] DrAgKurt:
I think we don't have the sense 4.0 ready yet. I'm pretty sure, it'll be posted on XDA as soon as it's released.
[HTC Sensation] marseillesw:
There's 2 sense 4.0roms in the dev thread and they both work fine with the 3.32 firmware
[HTC Sensation] invensmaster:
yes i have seen the roms with the sense 4.0. but i want to flash the stock which has sense 3.6. my question is can i have the stock and then ontop of it flash sense 4.0? there is some roms which is sensles they took sense out of it so i wanted to do the other way around which is have a stock rom but with sense 4.0
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
You are such a n00b!!! :D

To answer your question, no there are no flashable ZIPs with Sense 4.0 - if it was THAT easy do you not think everyone would have done it by now?
[HTC Sensation] aidanski:
It's just an inquiry; there is no benefit from flaming someone because of a question which they've (prior to posting on XDA) not found when searching.

I don't see any reason why Sense couldn't be flashed via recovery, providing they extract it from one of the existing Sense 4.0 ROMs. Surely it would just require the pre-existing sense to be overwritten.
[HTC Sensation] invensmaster:
Well there is nothing wrong beeing a noob also not every one was born qualified people gain experiance by asking questions especialy when its post in the correct section

[HTC Sensation] dgenx210:
People saying "it's just a question" can get quite tiring at times you know. :D

The thing is, EddyOS is a dev. He knows what he's talking about. You sound to me as if you're saying that Sense is something so simple like a skinned launcher but the thing is, it's not okay? Sense is like TouchWiz and Motoblur. It's very deeply integrated into Android. :p

It's not like taking your TV plug from a wall socket and just plugging it into another. Now, if you've got some way to do it as you suggest, please tell the devs because I am very sure that they are interested in what you have to say.

/s

We are all noobs at one point in our life but the thing is, if we don't make an effort to learn how to do things and stop being a noob, that's a problem. People just don't gain experience by asking especially in xda. Reading also helps because odds are 9/10 that your question has been answered :D

At the moment it is impossible to root your phone. It was a bad idea to unlock your bootloader with the software by HTC. Now you have to wait and hope that someone find a way to root + S-OFF with bootloader-version 1.03.0003.

Hi

Any news for my phone ?

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
unlock it with the HTC utility, then place the attached file onto the root of your sd-card, and boot into the bootloader (not fastboot), when it asks to update click yes, you should then have a custom recovery that you can boot into.

Because you updated the bootloader, there is as of yet no way to get "true" S-OFF and flash one of alpharev's bootloaders, so tough luck.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aids76:
So as i understand,with above method i can gain root access to load custom roms ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
With that method, you gain access to recovery, giving you the possibility to a) gain root access to your stock ROM (not necessary), backup your nand memory to SD-Card (do before flashing), wipe nand memory, flash root ROMs, and many more features.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Xura08:
I dropped it a few weeks ago and the screen is toast along with the lcd and digitizer. I have it taken apart and I was wondering - what are the chances it will work again? I have debugging enabled and ended up trying to use androidscreencast java program. It will read the internal memory but won't display a screen. Also, the HDMI out occasionally works but it's a little rocky.

My question is this: Is it possible it's fried, or is there a possibility that maybe it is malfunctioning because the digitizer is completely ruined along with the LCD? I have everything still attached including the camera(s).

Right now the screen lights up (though you can't see anything) but my computer won't detect it when plugged in nor will it output HDMI to my TV =(.

Should I spend the money to get a new lcd/digitizer/screen, or should I just give up? I JUST got this phone (no insurance)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
How would it be fried if you only dropped it?

As for anything else, for HDMI I have to enable by using the SCREEN, so that might be why you can't use it when connected to your TV.

And for the connection to your computer, mine detects that I have it plugged it, but it doesn't let me transfer files to or from without enabling mass storage, which is again done by touching the SCREEN.

On a side note, I broke the LCD on my Vibrant twice, everything worked fine, just had to replace the screen. Don't know about this phone, but if the phone turns on, then chances are everything is fine. Unless its a software related, such as being bricked.

For those of you who got a Note after having a Skyrocket or the SGS2, what are your general impressions?

I just got my Note yesterday, so the jury's still out for me. But so far, I love the size and clarity of the display. The S Pen is a pretty cool toy. However, the black crush issue is making me consider going back to the skyrocket.

What are the pros and cons for you?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captivated:
Kinda off topic, but does your skyrocket not have the black crush issue? I exchanged my note for another one because of pen accuracy issues, and my new one shows the black crush really badly. The ATT rep said all of the Samsung phones have the black issue, including the skyrocket. My captivate never had the issue. Now that I experience the black issue, I don't know if I want to keep the note.

Edit: Just saw your post in the black crush thread and see that you mentioned that it isn't present on the skyrocket. That might be my new phone if I can't find a fix for this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 00mred00:
I have had 8 skyrockets...and my wife still has one...

The skyrocket has the black crush as well but it is less noticeable because of the smaller screen and lower resolution.

I would go back to the skyrocket if there were not so many units with screen lines and blobs
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captivated:
Sigh...I guess my solution is to keep the Note and hope that Samsung addresses this issue. My temporary fix is to adjust settings in a screen adjuster app so the black issue is less noticeable.

I simply started using higher res stuff and its 90% fixed

Yea its weird the other day i tried that Youtube video "Moving Star field 720p" or whatever and it was horrible pixelation & such. I went to show my GF today and it was 100 times better lol, figures. But i do still see it on some things though. But i figured most devices do have this. :confused:

But most of these "new screens" are without a downfall but have many positives over negatives. For example my PS Vita has a beautiful OLED screen. But being its early OLED technology on loading screens you can see what looks like black blobs of paint if you are in a dark room. It is only seen when the pixels are off and only the backlight is on. During some loading screens you will see this. Never will you see any of it during game play. But i guess the Note is more noticeable being it happens in video playback and such.

I had the verizon galaxy nexus....then the tmobile galaxy s2 which has basically the same processer in my new note.....I have to say the more I play with the note the more I like it....my s2 was screaming fast...though we had more developers in that community ....this note is fast but hasn't reached it full potential by any means..we only have a few devs here,plus its so new...give it time this device will be incredible mark my words..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Budge:
If I just wanted to play YouTube videos, I could use my browser and that would fix the problem. But I can't even use a wallpaper with dark blacks or it will show that crush all day. It also does it with pictures I take using the camera.

If my Skyrocket has any black crush, it is infinitely better than the Note.
