Re: ★★★Htc Rezound OFF-TOPIC THREAD!★★★

As I've said many times, I have no beef with apples products. In terms of build quality and aesthetics they are unmatched. Period. This coming from a hard core android lover. I think Macs run the best. iPhones are faster than android phones. iPads are the most efficient tablets. But I refuse to support Apple as a company. I don't believe in what they stand for. Its the same reason that as of recent, I won't buy another HTC device. I want open. I wanna be able to do what I want with what I buy without big brother telling me how to do it. HTC has gotten just as locked down as Apple recently. That being said though... Do I think apple products are grossly overpriced because they know they have a fan base that will buy regardless of what they charge? Absolutely.

Just played a great Dustbowl match in TF2.

I capped the final point as a Sniper, LOL. It was partially capped and my team had taken care of most of them. Then there was one Soldier left shooting missiles and I pushed in with my SMG while jumping up and down to avoid being hit so easily. I landed on the point for a few moments and we won.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Re: ★★★Htc Rezound OFF-TOPIC THREAD!★★★

I think I'm done with HTC too. Nothing appealing about them anymore. Build quality/hardware maybe. But everything from the small battery to the no expandable/swappable storage to the software and lock down is just a big ole fail in my book. Looks like I'll be getting Samsung next since verizon doesn't like other manufacturers too much. I just hope/wish the note 3 and GS4 would be released at the same time

Edit: I'd also like if Google did a high end spin off of a nexus. But with things like bigger/removable battery and memory.
[HTC Rezound] SirSigma:
I dislike TouchWiz enough that I'm going to stay loyal to HTC.

The One looks good, but I'm going to jump ship to AT&T to get it whenever possible. It only seems like Verizon doesn't play nice with HTC anyway. Just look at the One X+ on AT&T; it's amazing. And they're also getting the One (as well as every other carrier except Verizon). It's like Verizon really doesn't like HTC.

Re: ★★★Htc Rezound OFF-TOPIC THREAD!★★★

Why is it when you talk down about apple products people always throws the retina display in our face? That's almost like playing the race card when someone talks bad about Obama. Just because its machined out of a block of aluminium doesn't make it a better product. When you drink a soft drink out of an aluminium can does it taste better than its glass, plastic counterparts? Sorry Ashton you sound like the typical phanboy. You talk only about the bells and whistles that apple has brainwashed people in to thinking they are getting a quality product. You never once talk about the internals which are what counts the most. What about the processor, memory, video card and so on? I have talked to people who owns macbooks and their one big complaint is when the new macbook comes out they drop all support for the previous years version.

Look at the iPhone how long did it take them to finally get a dual core processor in that phone? Even now the iPhone has started losing ground as android phones constantly evolving is leaving them in the dust. They are now using pieces of android os to try and keep up. If it wasn't for the loyal sheep that keeps buying the same basic icrap year after year. The iPhone would of died off long ago. IOS on Iphone kept the same basic look from its official launch. Where's the innovation apple prides themselves on? Oh yeah their definition of innovation is what they call stealing from others and calling their own.

So keep playing the retina display card because that's all apple has over other devices. Apple will always be a fashion accessory and what will apple do when that fashion style becomes outdated. My work has iphones for management and supervision. Have yet found one that likes the thing.

In closing why are you even talking about apple when the guy clearly stated he wanted something to game on. I am quite sure he wasn't talking about playing solitaire or the mine game lol. Its a known fact apple isn't for gamers.

You don't need to. You can get a perfectly good laptop for $500-600. I wanted backlit keys and that search led me to Qosmios which is a gaming laptop and more than I really needed, but I really liked it (I'm so into red toys right now :D).

Re: ★★★Htc Rezound OFF-TOPIC THREAD!★★★

Only issue that ive found with sim swapping a jetpack on a phone sim is everytime you fire the box up it registers on your account. When you throw the sim back into your phone it will still show the jetpack on your account. So for insurance purposes its a bit risky. You will have to call and come up with some bs story to get your phone readded.
[HTC Rezound] tehknics:
Re: ★★★Htc Rezound OFF-TOPIC THREAD!★★★

Well if we do get the jetpack it will be on separate line, so there won't be any SIM issues. We have 4 aircard lines that are dormant right now, so we'll just convert one of them to a jetpack. I'm just torn since using the phone's hotspot feature doesn't require you to have another device, while the jetpack allows more freedom since I can separate from it.

Also, not draining my phones battery would be nice. Reports on the internet are all over the place, some saying the speeds and reliability of the jetpack are greater, while others claim they are the same.

Re: ★★★Htc Rezound OFF-TOPIC THREAD!★★★

Ping is just a little bit better. But nat is terrible. If u do much voip or anything over the net you will be happier with tether. Over all data speed was the same as the note 2

Jetpacks have a closed nat for whatever reason. While tether worst case scenario is moderate and that still allows most everything to get threw. Where as the strict nat means whomever or whatever your trying to communicate with has to have a complete open nat or your connection will refuse the ip.

just had a girl with a Dinc in here that just wouldn't charge and turn on...much like those problems we saw with the rezounds around the forums...

she left it with me for 20 minutes...another battery worked...then the other battery didn't work...after a bunch of tries, i somehow got HER battery working...and guess what? it was 100% charged. when off, the phone wasn't showing the LED, so it was charging, but the phone didn't think it was..it thought it was dead.

so i was able to help her out and this girl was like so grateful and happy lol..the nice customers totally make the job worth it, plus she was a cutie lol
[HTC Rezound] antp121:

nope, only busy when it's inconvenient to me. i wanted to explain more to this girl about why her inc was running ****ty, but of course a bunch of people came in when i'm about to give it back to her..go figure. and since she didn't actually buy anything here, obviously i have to prioritize (since i'm the only one in the store)

Yeah I bo2 zombies alot via tether. From all my testing including ics via usb and a cat from the xbox to the pc. Wifi tether from google has the best setup for NAT.

Alot of older routers have issues with nat when there are multiple devices connected.

Ah, gotcha. Yah man I got the update before reading the forums and was like "oh cool an update" without thinking lol. S-off just came out days before that too.

I really wonder if Verizon's built in hotspot has a closed NAT... I just talked with the phone guy and he says we get unlimited hotspot for like 20$, so we're gonna test it for a month. He's also letting us use his jetpack for a month as well so I'll know for sure here soon!

You can have it do updates automatically or notify you that there's updates and let you decide what and when. I usually have it notify me. Don't know why I never did that on here. Probably playing with my phone too much.
