[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
I'm still waiting for official though. I haven't rooted cuz this is a replacement for my og EVO and I don't think I cab say I lost it again lol!
[HTC EVO 3D] shook187:
Post paid is becoming a big rip off compare to prepay . For that reason I flashed my phone to Boost Mobile and haven't looked back. Sure I lose 4g, but it wasn't that fast anyways, and with poor wall penetration it was pretty much useless for me at home.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mr Paul:
Man you US'ers really get shafted on mobile contracts!
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
Dang $35 a month?!

I could get 4 of them for significantly less than I'm paying Sprint for my 4 line family plan right now (all Evo 3Ds).

How hard would it be to activate a Sprint Evo 3D on Virgin Mobile?
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
I'm not sure if u can. Although u would think they would let u. But being owned by Sprint I'm not sure if the would want to take the hit cuz they would loose a ton of money from multiple accounts following suit.
[HTC EVO 3D] solver404:
the "unlimited" data includes 2.5 GB per month per Virgin Mobile site fwiw
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
What happens after that? Throttled, billed extra, cut off altogether, or what?

I think T-Mobile has an "unlimited" data plan that throttles after 5 GB for $30, so that might actually be a better deal.

But if we can use our existing Sprint Evo 3D on this without buying a new phone, that has to be considered too.

Same phone, same network, same service, half price to what we're paying right now. It's almost mandatory to consider it, lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] fusiondynamics:
My friend was wondering why they sent out texts about increases in plan rates If you change out your phone. Actually prices are going up for VM customers who change their phones after 5-27-2012. Now we know the reason for the price increase for service.

NM he's still on the $25 a month plan. So no changes if your on the $35 plan.
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
So I just did a quick comparison. Here's how it all stacks up:

Individual Plans:

Sprint: $80 (includes $10 smartphone fee) 450 minutes, unlimited text and data.

Sprint also has the same with 900 minutes for $100, and unlimited for $110.

Virgin Mobile: $35 300 minutes, unlimited texts, "unlimited" data (2.5 GB then throttled).

Virgin Mobile also has the same with 1200 minutes for $45, and unlimited minutes for $55.

T-Mobile: $30 100 minutes, unlimited texts and "unlimited" data (5 GB then throttled).

T-Mobile also has unlimited minutes, unlimited texts, and "unlimited" (2 GB then throttled) data for $60, and unlimited minutes and texts with 5GB then throttled data for $70.

Family Plans (4 line):

Sprint: 1500 shared minutes, unlimited texts, unlimited data $210 (includes $10 smartphone fees). They also have the same with 3000 shared minutes for $250, and unlimited minutes for $410.

T-Mobile: unlimited minutes, unlimited texts, "unlimited" (2 GB then throttled) data for $200.

T-Mobile also offers the same with 5GB then throttled for $230.

T-Mobile also offers unlimited minutes on the first 2 lines and 500 minutes on lines 3 and 4, with unlimited texts and "unlimited" (2 GB then throttled) data for $160, and unlimited minutes on the first 2 lines and 500 minutes on lines 3 and 4 with unlimited texts and 5 GB then throttled data for $190.

T-Mobile also offers 10 GB then throttled data plans with unlimited minutes and unlimited texts for $290, and unlimited minutes on the first 2 lines but only 500 minutes on lines 3 and 4 (with unlimited texts) for $250.

Virgin Mobile: I could not find any family plans on their site.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] godlyitem:
useful stuff. thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
You thief! I was just about to make a 2nd post to reserve it! haha.

Thanks and you're welcome!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
great videos man. you had me laughing also with you being High on Android..lol Seriously, thanks for the vids. i made sure to like them and i subscribed. I am like you or like you was in the fact that I've been putting off unlocking my device. just in case i ever needed to send it in. I watched the how to unlock & install recovery, how to install/flash CM9 & the review of CM9 on Prime. I am really interested in the AOKP one you said you will make. Any estimated date on releasing that video? Thanks to your videos, i feel confident about unlocking once i do. It all looks very easy. I just hope i wont get stuck in recovery bootloop at first like you did in video.

I like the features AOKP has so i will be waiting on that video install/review to drop from You. So which recovery do you prefer or find to be the best or easiest to use? TeamWin TWERP, CWM touch, or old CWM regular method. That teamwin recovery with goo manager looks simple and straight forward to use. also like the fact you can choose multiple things to flash at once and pick the order that it flashes.

Once again great videos. i know ill be watching the how to unlock and flash recovery & the how to install Rom one alot more. I'm always like that. being extra careful so i don't brick my device. So by constantly reading and watching the how to vids, ill have the in & outs down packed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
WOW! I had to reread that a few times! Judging by your reply, you pay very close attention to detail.

About the AOKP video, I work full time, and I get sunday through tuesday. So I'll more than likely make the video next week! Once I get off work on Saturday's, I'm literally FREE to make videos until tuesday night! :D

I really like TWRP! AT FIRST, I wasn't feeling it and would go back to CWM. On my EVO3D, you can NOT charge the phone while it's off (something I like doing) and usb mounting doesn't work in recovery. And their hasn't been an update in months. So I'm definitely enjoying Team Win as their recovery simply works, without any issues, and they are QUICK to release updates! So I'll be donating to Goo Manager when i'm not so broke, because I doubt I will EVER use Rom Manager again, and I want instant updates! My Prime has already had 3 Nightly updates since making the video. I don't regret voiding at all, AND NOW I get to make ALL of these videos!

Kinda like this one! When they get more things working, that would be AWESOME to have on my Prime! A dual boot configuration would be BEAST!!!

Thanks VERY MUCH for the kind words. I saw that you liked this thread shortly after I posted it, and it reminded me of your replies to some of the threads I've replied to. I appreciate you... A LOT!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
added "how to update your Prime and restore root".

If you have any requests for videos, let me know.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
So it was fixed... Thank you!

I was literally about to never touch this forum again.

For a few minutes you made me feel as if I wasn't as important as others.

Thanks for clearing all of this up.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] owenbeals:
Another great Transformer prime channel is http://youtube.com/droidmodd3rx

There are a few guides that are slightly easier to follow especially the unlock and root guide which uses the wugfresh tool. Plus rom reviews and a weekly techvlog

Another good one is http://youtube.com/zedomax also good for some rom reviews and other good content like "high on android"
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
I have Zedomax featured on my channel.

I've never heard of the other guy though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
waiting for that AOKP video ;) Team EOS Rom & that new Gummy Rom seem interesting also. oh, and can't forget about WSG beta Rom, very solid from what I hear. it would be great to show all the features and how they perform on a particular rom. These the kind of videos I've been waiting for to see how each of these roms look and perform and what added features they bring over stock. Although Virtuous prime is more stock based, I've heard its bulletproof. with the added features and optimization it has, its been said to be one of the most stable, if not the most. just some thoughts..lol

I see you got stickied, Congrats!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
yeah, the moved it to the GENERAL forums yesterday... but I said that if mine needed to be moved, then so did the other thread that I linked to. So he moved it back and stickied it! Very Awesome!!!

That's a LOT Of roms! Lol. Question... I see some people make "HOW TO INSTALL" videos on every rom. I THINK that's unneeded IMHO... Because with EACH ROM, you just boot into recovery, wipe, and then install... lol. But some people do it with every little update that comes out. So why make a "how to install" and then separate review video?

What is YOUR thoughts on that? (Others can chime in as well) I just feel that's a way to increase your video count rather quickly... Everyone that's been around for a while, can easily apply an update.zip! If there are EXTRA steps, I can see making a video on how to install it. My videos USUALLY have a "how to install" an d a "review", IN THE SAME video. Because a "how to install" video is just a few steps, and there is no need for a 2 minute video, on each rom. Why not combine the two?

PLEASE reply with your thoughts on that. If there is extra steps in the how to install, then I'd do a separate video for that. But when it's "WIPE, INSTALL ROM, REBOOT"... I don't feel that needs a video that should take 2 minutes, all on it's own. So when i make a "how to install video", that's IT! usually after it's installed, I also walk the user around the rom, in the same video. On my CM9 video for the Prime, I actually reviewed it in the same video!! BUT, there was so much to cover, that I split it up! :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] owenbeals:
Check out http://youtube.com/droidmodd3rx

He has an aokp review and he has a team EOS review coming later this evening
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I feel the exact same way as you do. the other roms I listed was more for a video review of them. no need to make a separate how to install video for each unless extra steps were needed. but its like you say, since installing a few short steps anyways, you would have them in the review video anyways. It'll be like you starting from the beginning and loading and flashing the rom, then reviewing it. Separate video definitely not needed for every different rom out there.

I'm sure people would love to see an Ubuntu install/video review also. ;)

There are noobs & alot of people new to android that visually seeing the install gives them more confidence in doing it and wanting to try it out. Its amazing how all these Android phones n tablets can be taken past stock configuration to the world real customization. Pretty impressive stuff to be able to do these kinds of things on a Device. This is what makes Android so much better than IOS, IMO.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] owenbeals:
I think zedomax has an aokp review as well
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
yes he does, but dude... Seriously, Zedomax and I are friends. I don't know the other dude. They make videos like I do, and you've already brought that up a couple times! :) No need in keeping on. Demandarian likes my videos, and wants to see/hear MY opinions/review of the rom. All you have to do is search on YouTube for Transformer Prime AOKP and people that made a video of it, will show up!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
You and I are going to get along VERY well. We both have the same opinions on a LOT of things! I completely agree, and I'm gonna keep doing things the way I have been! Thanks SO MUCH for your feedback. I truly appreciate it!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
It's true!!! I don't know if that qualifies for an update video. I don't want to confuse people by having 19 videos of CM9 on the Prime! (every time they fix something...)

I did update the descriptions of the videos saying it works. If people read that is. This is very exciting, and I wanna give a HUGE SHOUTOUT to the people that got them to work!

That AOKP on the Prime video should come in the next couple days!

HOPEFULLY I'll finish it today. I will try. I got a family ya know :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mercydia:
Thanks Bro...Its Helpful
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:

Please let me know what you think!

There you go demandarin! :-)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
great vid. Goo manager makes everything so easy. I love the fact that rom control has so many settings. so how is the rom otherwise? I mean in fluidity, speed, etc..? or will you be making a review video on it also going over everything in that rom?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Co0n:
Hey, does the root method shown in the first video still work with the latest Android version?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
No, sorry! You'll have to either unlock your bootloader (install recovery through fastboot, then apply a rom or superuser) or wait for an updated root method.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] erimin:
If you have the latest firmware .21 there is a detailed guide http://freek.ws/2012/05/07/howto-ro...s-9-4-2-21-without-unlocking-your-bootloader/

I did it for my self and now i am rooted with no unlocking bootloader ... :-)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
Thanks for sharing that. That's the process you had to do when we got the ICS update. You had to go back to honeycomb, root, BACKUP your root, and install the update. I never could get it work. More power to ya!

I would like to know this too, if root is already present can we just install cwm through from manager or do we HAVE to unlock our bootloaders via that app? Cheers
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Parastie:
You must unlock the bootloader before installing CWM or TWRP.

If you're unlocked AND rooted, then goo manager should work.

Thanks for the videos!

Newb question here: Do I have to be rooted to install a custom ROM? I used the ASUS unlock tool to unlock my TF201. I then installed Goo Manager and selected menu -> Install OpenRecoveryScript. It downloads TWRP-2.2.0-tf201.blob and I get "Recovery has been installed!" Trying to boot into recovery (manually - Goo Manager -> Reboot Recovery does nothing) I get the Android belly up with the red triangle with exclamation point in the middle. Also, when I tried to install CM9 from Goo Manager, I got a similar success message, but then it just sat there.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Clockwerks77:
Oh ho! A question I can actually answer! So unlocking your bootloader doesn't mean you've rooted your device yet. You are halfway there.

To go this link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1427125 It's a great rooter. Once rooted, install OpenRecoveryScript in the Goo Manager settings. That'll put on TWRP. You should be able to flash to your heart's desire now.

I had exactly the same issue last night and the great peeps at XDA helped me out! Just paying it forward.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
First off, thanks Clockwerks77 for replying to this guy, as I was editing (Now uploading!) my Jelly Bean install and first look video for the prime.

Yes, that Prime Time tool will be your best friend for sure. Did superuser pop up and ask for superuser permissions?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vulcanfk:
Yeah, I'm aware that rooting and unlocking are different things. However, the how to video posted for installing TWRP/CM9 doesn't mention having to be rooted. I guess it's inferred :)

Thanks for the info and passing along the link! Hopefully I'll get a chance to try this tonight.

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 PM ----------

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aromano91:
sorry, i have official jelly bean 4.1 in my transformer prime...can i unlock and flash a custom rom then?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] micpang:
Thanks for all the videos. They are very helpful. But I had problem flashing CyanogenMod 10 onto my TF201.

I went to the following steps successfully: (my tf201 was already updated to JB)

- Unlock the tf201 with the unlock APK from the ASUS website

- Install TWRP custom recovery

- Backup (lucky me)

- Install CWM SuperSU

- Install Titanium Backup Pro (and did a backup)

- Install GooManager (but it has problem finding that I have already installed TWRP)

Then I use GooManager to install cm-10-20130102-NIGHTLY-tf201.zip and gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip.

The installation didn't produce any error, but after the reboot, I got stuck with the ASUS logo screen.

I also tried to use TWRP to install the 2 zips. But I also got stuck with the ASUS logo screen.

Any idea of how to fix this?

---------- Post added at 03:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:20 PM ----------

GooManager said "No recoveries were found for your device"!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wwjoshdew:
GooManager has disabled installing TWRP because it can't tell if you have the jelly bean or ics bootloader.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] micpang:
Thanks Wwjoshdew. But I have the same problem installing CyanogenMod 10 using TWRP.

Any solution for that? Many thanks

TWRP is updated to lastest version, the last version of nightlies (27-01) and the correct gapps for 4.1.1.

Flashing works without any issue but after boot I only see the Asus logo.

I assume changing to CWM recovery wont help anything but I tried but I failed :S
