[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Longcat14:
I was on T-Mobile until about a year ago (July 2011), when T-Mobile tried to charge us for 2 months of our phone bill (even though we paid every month on time) and wouldn't take it off.

Paid ETF's, bill, and switched to AT&T. I have to say, the difference in coverage was incredible. With T-Mobile, I'd randomly lose bars in areas, but with AT&T, the only time I drop from full signal is when I go to a certain area of my house (where any carrier, VZW, Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile will just DROP all signal), but other then that, I love it.

Honestly, I'd say anything considering T-Mobile, just pay the premium to stick with VZW, you under-estimate VZW's coverage advantage over T-Mobile, and LTE is just godlike. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blestsol:
I was told it won't work that way because it's about the phone you activate on it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mibmobile:
wow

I have shipped at least 12 phones back to VZW and his has never happened to me. I also had T-Mobile for about four years and finally had to get rid of them do to the quality of their service. Data constantly dropped and could not make calls in my house. Their customer service was great though. I've been with Verizon now for four years and can not see myself leaving. The coverage is too good.

I definitely would not recommend Metro PC. I know people personally that can be on a call and walk four feet into a dead zone and drop a call. Multiple people. And this is outside.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
Not true. This is how I get all my new toys :) I've got a dumb phone on 4 lines right now --- all lines I used to get my 4g toys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] glensta:
I was with T-Mobile for 12 years personally and still have 3 of my family members on T-mobile. I switched because of their slow data ping time. On T-Mobile, I'd hit the browser app & wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.....finally it'd load up. I saw my buddies on Verizon hit their browsers and boom, the page would load up right away. While I know T-mobile is quite a bit cheaper to have and in my area (Orange County, CA), their coverage is good, but their data sucks. My other family members could care less about data, but I sure care about it. Anyways, I switched to Verizon about 2 months ago and while it's expensive, my hobby is Roms/Data, fast access - so Verizon really suits the bill.

T-Mobile is great for basic data and decent coverage if you don't expect too much. Verizon is definitely the king though.

We'll see what happens if & when T-Mobile's LTE network gets going next year.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Smokuevo:
Same here switched from T-Mobile like two months ago and not looking back.

Couldn't watch a video on T-Mobile without it buffering multiple times on their hspa+ lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blestsol:
Maybe it's just sprint that does that then. They pulled that on me while I was trying to cancel. I put a palm pixie on or something on the line after taking the epic touch off.

I guess I know how I'll be getting my new HTC phone when it drops lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neilcifer:
Have had them all. I here is my thoughts in Chicago service area:

At&t: tons of dropped calls. Data is just ok. Had them for 12 years, on and off, but kept going back to them like "beaten wife syndrome"......had a good discount, but but hated the service.

Tmobile: equally as bad as at&t. Had them for a year.

Sprint: not so now network and would never recommend them to anyone, not even to my worst enemy. I hate sprint, and hope they go bankrupt. Had them for 8 months and broke the contract. From 1/2012 - 8/2012, I was never so unhappy with a service.

U.S. Cellular: probably the best and most reliable carrier I have ever had. I would recommend them as a direct alternative to Verizon. Just don't have a good signal at my house. 4 years of great service.

Verizon: almost as good as U.S. Cellular, just a notch down from them. Amazing coverage and network speeds. They are my current provider and will be sticking with them for a long time. Just signed up with them 2.5 months ago and happy with them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Yazzinit:
I think all companies have idiot employees like that though. I'd just take it up with a local store instead and say you've had enough of the run around
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
I read online it works. Ill have to do some research. I found a couple $10 old style moto razr flips to activate.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] guthrien:
I tried out TMobile the last couple weeks with a Galaxy Note 2. Between the great costs, and unlocked phones I thought it would be great to hop away from Verizon.

All I can say is they should be shamed for their advertising. Such a pathetic data network, to call the service 4G is charitable to say the least. I live around an area designated good to excellent and the signal is never the same twice. Works in some buildings, un reachable in others. You'll see people on the forums claiming they get constant LTE like speeds, but everyone I've met in real life is just so used to their crap technology they've adjusted to it.

They should do new ads with their model riding along on a pink unicycle.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
all depends on your coverage area. it's different for everyone. can't be any worse than sprint is. im making the move saturday. cant beat the price compared to verizon. besides gsm is the way to go and i wouldn't even consider at&t.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] oilfighter:
I was a 12 years TMo customer. My honest opinion is that TMo is great IF you stay in the city. It's cheap, their HSPA+ is plenty fast, and I never had issue with drop calls.

I left because once you leave the city, your data is useless. EDGE is pretty darn slow. I pretty much give up using data when I'm on EDGE.

When I first got Verizon, it was surreal to be out camping, and be able to do a skype call, in the middle of the wilderness! I used to go days without even seeing a bar on my TMo phone, and now I can get Verizon's 3G out in the wild. So, to me, the extra expense is worth it.

However, if your primary use is in the city, and you want to save a few bucks, TMo is great.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] guthrien:
Price and lack of bs is nice. Bit of hyperbole based on disappointment. You get spoiled by LTE which is literally a gen ahead.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sipple31:
BINGO! If you hit rural areas at all and value your cell phone... do not get T-mo. I tried it for a month and couldn't stand it. Driving down the interstate with roaming data that wouldn't work.... an interstate! Same area get's LTE with Verizon. Not comparable in my market. I will pay a premium for a better product when it comes to cell phones. :cowboy:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] oilfighter:
Yeah... most of the time if you are Roaming on TMo, the data just doesn't work. I was more or less expecting that at minimum, TMo would have native EDGE coverage along major interstates, but nope, that's not always the case. One day, I stopped to grab lunch about 2 hours east of Spokane, WA. TMo had zero service, while Verizon had LTE!

So yeah, if you want good coverage, and want to be able to use your data, Verizon is the way to go.

Although, if you value price, Tmo is great. I was paying less than $100 a month for 2 line family plan with My Fav (making my voice minutes unlimited) and had 5GB data on each of our lines. Very, very good value for my money. When I called to terminate, they were willing to give me another $10 off per month!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HoudiniJr:
T-Mobile has horrible service, which is the reason their pricing is so attractive. They still do the test drive as I have done it recently to see for myself. It is nothing compared to Verizon. I dont think I would ever leave Verizon even though I will agree with everyone, they are the most expensive. But you get what you pay for right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Smokuevo:
If you looking to pick up 1-3 T-Mobile lines I would love to sign them over to you..I'd even pay you 100$ if anyone takes them all 3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
just an update, i left verizon for tmobile a week before thanksgiving. better coverage and service for me plus the bill is about $40 cheaper a month. a bit disappointed in the lack of development for my note 2 but im pretty happy. i did get screwed and had to pay verizon about $470 in efts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
Good to hear I'm making the switch as soon as I switch jobs. Me and the wife both getting note 2s
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DroidBabe:

Plenty of Roms on Modaco, I think it is, just search up Blade3 Cyanogenmod and it should come up with one by Konstang. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MJonXDA:
Stock Rom?

Hi there,

2 things: yes, you can install many Blade3 ROMs in the T22, and the most popular that is confirmed to work is an unofficial port of CyanogenMod (you can install 10.2, but it still needs official development from Qualcomm before FM Radio and Bluetooth work, so I suggest 10.1), compiled by developer KonstaT.

As I have the New Zealand version of this device, I can confirm it works well, and will certainly do so here. However:

I advise against doing it if you don't know how to backup and restore a nandroid, purely because there are NO STOCK ROMS available from either ZTE or Telstra websites, and without that backup, you'll have no choice but to void any warranty you may have had if you neglected to do so! Even I find that idea annoying, and yet I don't have that problem!

Just a friendly warning from a cousin across the ditch.

Get in general on gsm/wcdma bands? Curious because I can't find a lot of info. And anybody previously owned some Motorola or Nokia phones how does LG compare to those? And a bonus question. How well does a Qualcomm WDC9310 sound processor compare to Wolfson 8994 or 1811? I can't find much info on the in-house sound chip Qualcomm, and it was challenging finding that is what is used on their s4 plus soc's.

Hello everyone!

To begin, I'm new to this and quite frankly I'm not even sure on where to begin. I'm looking to get an app up and running for Android. I own a Scuba Diving business and am looking for my customers to be able to access the app on the go and look to when there are dives, activiites, newsletters, etc. This would be the first goal.

The next goal would be to incorporate my eccomerce business into the app (same business) as well. I don't want to get into complicated coding, etc. I want a nice but not fancy GUI that my customers can easily navigate.

What my question is, where do I begin? What are some common issues, etc?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

I made one for my Other Business POCParty

Which is my second design of 3 or 4

OK Do This

You need to join App Inventor beta

You'll need a gmail (google) account

Then its quit simple

You'll need to create 'Table arrangements' and 'Horizon arrangements'

Add 'Banners' just as 'Images'

The buttons you want to use need to be 'Created' using 'Button' with 'Own button image' added and 'Link'

Create 'Activitystarters' that 'Link to button' under 'DataUrl'

Add 'android.intent.action.VIEW' to 'Action'

Once done

Click on 'Open Block Editor'

Once 'Java 6' is open

Click on 'Own Blocks'

Drag each 'Button1.click' etc you created over to 'Contents window'

Drag each 'Activity Starter' for that button over to 'Contents window' connecting in in the 'Middle' of 'Button1.click' etc to complete block.

Once done 'Save'

Test using 'New Emulator' wait load then click 'Connect Device' at top and select 'Second choice'

If happy close 'Package for phone' in first window to 'Download to Computer'

Upload to Google via 'Development Centre'

The first App Account setup cost AU$20- AU$25 dollars and free there after for further projects.

Last time I tried to root my Kindle Fire (1st Generation) TWRP's download failed. I think KFU's script puts the Kindle in fastboot before downloading TWRP or FFF. Is there another way to get TWRP, as KFU can't?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
I don't use Windows, but looking at the KFU script, it seems as though it is supposed to download TWRP, rename it to twrp.img, and place it in a folder named "recovery".

So just create a folder named "recovery" and place it in your KFU folder, download TWRP from the TWRP website, rename it to twrp.img and run the script again to see if that works for you.
