You forgot to tell him to run the ruu twice.
[HTC Rezound] gottahavit:
THANKS! Running now, though I'm not sure I'll know if it worked since I won't have ADB or screen capture if it worked or if it's bricked. Either way,this thing's only 3 months old VZW is gonna eat it.

Update: OK I think it worked, seemed to boot for a while without the charge light, now the charging light is back on and I can turn the back light on and off. Hopefully that means it's sitting at the setup screen.

Thanks again.
[HTC Rezound] gottahavit:
why do I need to flash twice?

It does seem to have worked as stated. Actually looks like the touch screen is working as I am able to unlock and power off the phone once booted and then i can boot it back up. I think I'm good, though I may try to enable adb if I can figure out the touch locations.

Update: OK WOW, the RUU I flashed(latest) has adb enabled I guess, I can adb and get screen shots and I am at the android setup screen. AWESOME. Thanks!!
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
You don't need to do that unless its from the sd method....

T-Mobile Will Introduce New “Unlimited” Data Plan That’s Actually Unlimited

So who will be switching over? I probably am since I currently have the $30/5GB plan and it seems like a no brainer. Great to see T-Mobile do this.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] benefit14snake:
I will be.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ipaq_101:
Don't they charge a $250 migration fee or something absurd, every time you change your plan?

You are right though:

http://www.businessweek.com/news/20...pcs-cut-rates-on-unlimited-plans-in-price-war
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jgalan14:
I'll be switching I don't care about thetering
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] babymatteo:
I wonder if theyll offer this plan for the monthly 4g prepaid consumers. That would be nuts!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shehade08:
Is that $30 on top of the data plan? Or is it all together $30? Idk if I'm wording this correctly lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jdyowa:
It appears it will be free if you already have the unlimited (5GBP)(like me). It says upgrade to unlimited from 2gb for $10. Thats $30
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vendetta718:
Probably in preparation for the I phone 5 launch.

I have a question though. Let's say we got the truely unlimited plan can we still use the tethering option in cm10 without getting caught?

Hopefully they just add $5 more to the 30/monthly 4G plan.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] thiagomme:
I just hope tmobile's network will be able to take the hit from all of us data hogs + the new ones who will be making the switch. That's the only thing that worries me because it would suck to be on an unlimited data plan that only crawls along web pages and streaming.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Docavelli:
Sometimes I need to tether my nexus 7 so I'm not sure about switching. Is tethering via usb the same as via Wi-Fi?

XDA Mobile
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] babymatteo:
Just root and use Wifi tether for Root users and no one will ever find out you're using your S3 as a hotspot. ;)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Docavelli:
I'm not very versed in tethering but I read that tmo was still catching tethering on the "back end"??? So they are able to see it anyway. :confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] oregondave:
there's a way to do it never fear. They can't catch SH$#
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aznmode:
I was a little bummed that I left sprint after 9 years and was missing my sprint unlimited everything and have been keeping a good eye on my usage now with TMO so I dont go over. Now I'm really glad I switched over. Currently on the value $64.99 (500 min, unltd texts, and 5gb data) plan and from the looks of it I'll be paying $5 more to get the unlimited everything. Cant wait for the 5th! The plus side of Tmo is I get 4g speeds in 99% places I go and didnt have to wait for LTE to roll out for sprint.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] babymatteo:
I tether to my Transformer Prime and laptop everyday...and never gotten a msg from T-mobile about tethering usage.

I'm on T-mobile's Monthly 4G Prepaid $30/month plan btw. No contracts no headaches.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aznmode:
Nothing is forever and no guarantee that just cause you're not notified everyone else will be as lucky. Out of curiosity are you getting throttled when you reach your cap?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Now we're talking!

I love free markets and competition!!!! :D:thumbup:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DesperateScorpion:
Customer retention can offer you unlimited 5GB data for $20 (this does not have the tethering option) and it can be added now, no need to wait till the 5th. They only have the 5GB plan, i already asked about the 2GB for $10 and they said they don't have that offer. I didn't take this option even though it is $10 cheaper (I currently have the grandfathered unlimited data & text for $35) cause I always find myself tethering my laptop or tablet during travel when the hotel wireless is spotty.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] arodhr13:
I just got the 5 gig from retention but the rep states that I still will only have a five gig cap is this true? or does he know what he's talking about? I'm thinking he doesn't know what the hell he's talking about. But got that plan from retention for 20 bucks a month
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 007shinobi:
If you received the preferred android data plan then yes it will have the soft cap of 5 GB a month then slows down to 2G speeds.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aNYthing24:
It'll be updated soon. Tons of people are switching (my guess) and they're trying to update it. For example, the main tab still shows my limit to be 5 GB but everywhere else it says I have unlimited.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dawgboy1783:
Apparently if you've been on an unlimited value talk, text, messaging plan $49.99 plus select data plans say $25.00=5 gb or $55.00=10 gb for a long time they give you the new unlimited for like 20 bucks a month I guess its called customer loyalty or something like that.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] joshnichols189:
No. It is $20 for value plans. I've been a customer for five months and I get it for $20 bucks on my value plan.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aNYthing24:
Getting much faster speeds since upgrading, pretty nice.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Classick206:
Too lazy to search to see if anyone has posted it already, but today T-Mobile also reduced their GS3 down payment on Value plans to $150.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Illusion81:
My true unlimited data is all good now, took more than 2hrs though more like 5hrs. And I was running cm10 at the time
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dawgboy1783:
You are right my friend I just got back from my local t-mobile store sgs3 down payment is infact reduced to $150.00.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aznmode:
So you get the phone for $150 then you have to pay an extra $20 a month for the next 24 months to off set it right? This means the phone after 2 years is $630?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dnguyen1988:
Just a heads up guys there's an update to Ariel. I'm downloading it now and will try flashing it during the cowboys game :)

Edit: thought I was in a different thread sorry guys
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] thiagomme:
It's either 100 or 200...can't remember.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jgalan14:
OK thanks for the response I haven't use roaming for the last two months so I'm good
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dawgboy1783:
You are correct thats about what it costs to buy it outright
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aznmode:
That's stil not that great of a deal then. I went to costco and paid $389 for the phone and got the value plan $64.99. I paid $239 more than if I bought for $150 but I dont have to pay $20 extra a month ($480 in 2 yrs). So after 2 yrs I saved $241 by going through costco.

Ok sorry this got a little bit off topic. Anyone else who switched to unlimited still say 10gb limit in their account?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Michowski:
Well i'm truly 4g unlimited now. Checked out my account and saw the option there. 20 bucks a month for unlimited 4g
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jjlean:
Just changed mine. They gave me ten dollars off for twenty four months too so now I'm getting truly unlimited for the exact same price. Woot woot! I'm really happy because I just started using Pandora in my car.

I love retention
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jaytxvo:
First thing I did after getting this plan was to tether it and downloaded 6gb of stuff. I plan to have 50gb used by the end of my cycle and see if anything happens... Haha

Also for anyone that didn't know... If you sign up for usafact.org, you get 12 percent off your Tmobile bill!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jgalan14:
Is the 12% plus employee discount?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SlakWReX:
I had unlimited everything but changed to 1000 whenever minutes since I only use about 500 a month. Mine also doesnt say 9xxx GB it just says unlimited
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SlakWReX:
Of takes a little for it to change.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jjlean:
Mine says unlimited. Switched immediately, but I bet it doesn't always change so fast
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mac208x:
I paid down 200$ and I only pay the extra 20$ for 12 month.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jjlean:
Yea, on top of the discount? I want to know too. I get 15% off because of my job... another 12% on top of that would be sweettttt
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cashyftw:
I also get 15% off as well, and a additional 12% would be awesome.

Sent from my JellyBean Galaxys3
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktetreault14:
Same here bro
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SlakWReX:
The plan changed immediately but it took a while to show is what I meant. I know because I had just reached 5.1gb and I called to change it and it sped back up my speed
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktetreault14:
Is the sign up free?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Chicago281:
All I can say is the switch from 2GB to Unlimited has made me a happy camper. My speeds are awesome, latency is good, and unlimited data! Just passed the 10GB mark in less than 24 hours.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] psykhotic:
Really? It's supposed to be for 20 months....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Lord_Kaizer:
Over 15hrs later from when i change to truly unlimited & they still haven't remove the throttling :mad:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SlakWReX:
You haven't called yet?!? I made the lady stay on the phone right after the change. She told mW to remove my battery then power back on. Then my throttle was lifted.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Lord_Kaizer:
Thanks dude,I did that & few minutes later i got 4G back :D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SlakWReX:
Just hit the thanks button :D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SpydaPig:
My data finally reset this morning to unlimited data. I'm a happy camper!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jjlean:
How did you do that?

---------- Post added at 08:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:50 AM ----------

I'm waiting on dudes response about it. I have no idea. I was asking also. That would be cool to have double discount.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jgalan14:
He probably uses it as home Internet lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jaytxvo:
The 12 percent is not on top of employee discount. They are both considered corporate discount.

Also, I'm part of a small business... How do go about getting on these business plans?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SlakWReX:
Go to T-Mobile say you wanna open a small business account. You need your tax ID and a bill that goes to the address of your business. I'm in a small business plan. Pretty cheap.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktetreault14:
Yea it sure would.. but I would like to get a single discount first:D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jaytxvo:
It is considered a corp discount, so any employee discount, it will not combine.

For those who do not have a discount currently and would like one, here is the link with the info:

http://slickdeals.net/f/5036672-T-mobile-12-or-10-off-total-bill

The only thing outdated about that link is before you can call and just add it to your account. But now you have to fill out a form and email it a discount email.

If you have blue cross blue shield health care you get 15% off, otherwise the best option I found was usafact.org.

Here is what you do:

1) sign up for usafact.org ( 3 month membership = $12 ), you get refunded when you cancel within 60 days.

2) Fill out this form : https://my.t-mobile.com/Corporate/MCSA_Form.doc

3) Take a screenshot of the membership email you got from usafact.org after you signed up.

4) Email the Form,membership email and PROMOCODE: 10045TMOFAV to mcsamigrations@t-mobilesupport.com and put the subject line as: Corporate Discount Form Promo Code #10045TMOFAV

5) wait for a response! I got a response in 20 mins! That department is really fast in processing these forms.

6) Cancel membership to usafact.org.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] RonnyT24:
Hmmmm Now that this is going live I might just cancel everything else. IE... home tv/internet plan, everything on my cell phone except the data (wifi calling though data) and save a ton of money. Kids are in school and me and the wife work so we will only be using the home stuff when everyone is home. Hook up the tether and boom everyone happy. With my wifes Sensation and My S3 we could power the neighborhood lol. Im diggin this. Since I am already on the 5g plan I only need to call them and get switched right? No paying or anything. This seems too awesome to be true.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jdyowa:
Checked my account. I guess the unlimited went into effect. Usually it says something other than 0%

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] willham:

Thank you. Just signed up and emailed tmobile. Now the wait for approval.....=)

---------- Post added at 01:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 PM ----------

Don't talk to customer service as they are clueless. They've screwed up my account before and they are outsourced so I dont think they're getting proper info/training. When you call 611 just say "cancel" and that will take you to retention. Theyll do it in less than a min.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jjlean:
Yep, thats what I did. 3 min.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jdyowa:
Yeah, what he said. Say "cancel" and you get an American. I already an unlimited (5g) but now it looks like I never get throttled.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] paul.p:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aznmode:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] willham:
Mine still shows 5 TB but when I'm on the plan tab it shows unlimited nationwide 4g. That means I'm unlimited right?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aznmode:
If youre logged online on a computer, click on "view and change services" on the right hand side. It should show you what data plan your currently on. Should be the $20 Unlimited Nationwide 4g. Right now I dont trust the one that shows in the home page or the mobile site on the phone browser.

EDIT: If I go to ma.web2go.com and click on my plan it also says "Unlimited Nationwide 4G $20.00" Before it said 5gb $25.00
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] uoY_redruM:
By the way, for those who plan to tether, I confirmed with several stores tethering is DISABLED while using this plan.

That's not to say there is not another way around it, but they disable it.

I switched this afternoon.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] SlakWReX:
As long as your rooted you can tether. I'm on cm10 and tether to my tablet fine.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Babydollll:
The payments last 20 months, not 24.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Woody:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sjt88:
Boom! Woke up to this:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mr_g2marleyjunt:
called 2 different times to get it changed to unlimited and was told both times I wasn't elgible because of the grandfathered family plan I have for my 4 lines of service. called a 3rd time and talked to someone in retention and was told I would have to change my, you minute plans for all 4 lines to be elgible
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] -FuRBz-:
did they make you upgrade your account, like a new agreement?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mr_g2marleyjunt:
I didn't go through with it because they said I would have to change 2e lines to unlimited minutes and the other 2 to 500 minutes each instead of the 3000 shared minutes a month. That would have also increased my bill
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sjt88:
Since 2004 I think. I had my favs for family with 800 + the unlimited text add on. They switched me to a new two year for unlimited talk and text on both lines which was fine by me because I upgraded two days ago and am locked in for two more years anyway. I was paying 109 Per month. My plan is now 117 per month with a $10 loyally credit for two years.

Did I mention that I upgraded at WalMart to the GSIII for $198.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mr_g2marleyjunt:
anyone else unable to get the truly unlimited data due to there current plan
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] if6was9:
Have to upgrade current phone plan

I just called T-Mobile and I was told that with my current phone plan (My Faves), I would not be able to upgrade to unlimited data plan unless I also upgrade to new "classic" phone plan.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] leetone:
I have the $30/plan for my new S3 on TMOBILE. I was told the first 2GB is 4G speed then it would be unlimited 3G speed. Do I need to give tmobile a call to get unlimited 4G?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Abbens:
Its supposed to be unlimited 4G. I asked the women from customer loyalty. I asked I have 5gig unlimited whats the difference, she said its unlimited high speed 4G only thing I cannot do is hotspot
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aznmode:
Call T-Mobile And say cancel so you can get someone in retention that knows What they're doing if you're going to switch to unlim. Otherwise you can log online And do it there too.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ebatr8:
Anyone that can't get unl because they have an old plan and think retention will do it, you are wrong retention can't do anything about it, the functionally to add unl data wasn't built into the old plans, so you either change your plan or you just can't have it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] -FuRBz-:
Wrong! They can change your plan to the new one and waive the new contract date and thus giving you the ability to add the unlimited data plan
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] amaesing:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tamasrepus:
T-Mobile needs to be tarred and feathered for their continued abuse of "unlimited". Whoever thinks these things up in their marketing department needs to be fired—when TMO actually has something better than it's previous plans and other carriers, they don't have a way to communicate it!

AFAIK, the former is a legacy plan and has a soft cap of 5 GB. However, TMO only enforced it if you really abused it… I'm not sure whether they continue to do so?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Chicago281:
I believe I am being throttled. I've gone from 100ms pings with 25mn down and 4mb up to suddenly tonight I'm getting a constant 1000ms ping with 0.50mb down and 0.02up.

WTF! Just hit 10GB on my "Unlimited" plan. Not too happy.

**Update**

Called T-Mobile spoke with tech support. They verified my Unlimited data is active and I am not being throttled. Phone is rooted with stock rom. Could it be the network is having issues or a traffic jam? Weird.
