I had unlimited data but used the upgrade from my line which should have lost it for me but my VZW account still shows unlimited as well. I assume the 2gb plan will kick in at the start of my next billing cycle. Interestingly, I also switched the pre-installed sim with the one from my GNex. Maybe I'll get lucky and somehow keep unlimited... but I doubt it.

[HTC Droid DNA] lazarus2297:
who did you upgrade with? straight through verizon or some 3rd party?

I did the upgrade on the 23rd so that was 2 days into my billing cycle so i guess in theory they could change the plan on the 22nd of December when my new billing period starts.. but if they do I will call CS and argue.. since my info i recieved from BBY when i upgraded showed keep same data plan..
[HTC Droid DNA] Thrillhouse847:
I upgraded through VZW. I preordered through the website on the 18th. My billing cycle resets on the 14th so I'll know for sure in a couple weeks.

[HTC Droid DNA] l7777:
Good luck. I had a similar setup going with AT&T and they finally hit me with "That plan isn't compatible with your phone." and switched me to a tiered plan. That was when I decided to switch to VZW. I will likely buy my future devices from e-bay or another source to ensure I have unlimited data as long as possible.
[HTC Droid DNA] bluesamg:
Thats cool. Ill keep my fingers crossed. Only loophole(besides alternate upgrade) to keep unlimited data.
[HTC Droid DNA] Amphibliam:
I used my bro's upgrade to get the DNA on verizon and I lost unlimited data. Stuck with 2 GB for the same price. Hope they bring back that promotion of double data. And my mother has 4GB and she uses like .1 lol.
[HTC Droid DNA] xxxdroidxxx:
So lazarus2297, are you still on the unlimited plans? I just went through the entire process also showing " keep existing plan". Didn't go through with it yet. Want to make sure before I order.
[HTC Droid DNA] lazarus2297:
yes i am still on the unlimited plan and it has now been over three weeks.. i upgraded via the online site on black friday.
[HTC Droid DNA] xxxdroidxxx:
OK thanks. Forgot to ask you. Did you start a new cycle since you upgraded?
[HTC Droid DNA] lazarus2297:
not yet.. my new billing period starts on the 22nd
[HTC Droid DNA] Thrillhouse847:
Well, I'm now officially 2 days into my new billing cycle and my account is still showing unlimited data despite having used my upgrade to purchase this phone through Verizon.

I'm not really sure why I didn't get stuck with a 2gb plan but I'm not certainly not complaining. :thumbup:

Sent from my HTC6435LVW
[HTC Droid DNA] xxxdroidxxx:
I'm just worried that Verizon will all of a sudden just change it over to the 2gb plan down the road.
[HTC Droid DNA] l7777:
It took AT&T 3 months to switch my data plan to a tiered plan. I left shortly there after because I hadn't done an upgrade but they wouldn't let me go back to my original data plan.
[HTC Droid DNA] Thrillhouse847:
I assume this will happen at some point. However, both of my parents upgraded this last month as well, and both of their plans changed from unlimited to 2gb right away. This gives me some hope that it's some weird fluke/loophole on Verizon's part and I might get to keep unlimited.

I posted the same experience some time ago, transferred an upgrade with unlimited data to my line, with unlimited data, and both lines stayed unlimited after the upgrade.

I had called Verizon since I was confused about the LTE sim card, and the handler openly told me that because I had transferred the upgrade the data plan wouldn't change for either one.
[HTC Droid DNA] Tornlogic:
Why in the world would all you people risk losing unlimited? Holly crap I would totally ditch vzw if I lost unlimited. What is wrong with you people? Lol. Ever hear of purchasing off contract. Cheaper in the long run AND you get to keep unlimited.
[HTC Droid DNA] ManOfMyth:
I also have unlimited data after upgrading, Im not sure why but I do and I"m loving it.
[HTC Droid DNA] kutster:
I used my moms upgrade and had the phone moved to my line. The store still had to remove my unlimited data BUT I called customer service immediately and they put it back since my phone number still has the old contract. My guess is that people that are upgrading right now and still seeing unlimited it going to be like the tricking Verizon to give you unlimited data by adding the $30 mobile hotspot feature. About 2 months later Verizon set up a team to go through the accounts that did this and change them back. All I can say is good luck!
[HTC Droid DNA] nrfitchett4:
how are you saving money by purchasing off contract?
[HTC Droid DNA] klarson:
You're not. The only way you would save money is by circumventing the shared data plans. But if you upgrade AND keep your unlimited data then you're definitely saving money. Except for the fact that you're now locked into another 2 year contract.
[HTC Droid DNA] SwiftLegend:
Just wondering, if I use my dad's upgrade, will it renew his contract and leave my unlimited data alone or would I have to first upgrade his phone to the DNA and then switch them out?
[HTC Droid DNA] jreed2560:
If you use your dads upgrade you have to activate it first on his line ( no alternate upgrade jazz) then ran swap it back to your line. We do this all the time in our stores. And a little secret for all those that don't know. If you use an upgrade for a basic phone and upgrade to a smart phone. When you switch the line back to a basic phone the ETF drops from 350 back down to 175.

[HTC Droid DNA] clucernoni:
I decided unlimited data isn't really an issue for me. I have Wifi everywhere I go and use less that 1GB per month, so while I know VZW is screwing me, it doesn't actually effect me. So it wasn't a huge deal. For heavy data users though, I can see why you wouldn't want to lose it, but for most of us, it doesn't matter much.
[HTC Droid DNA] kutster:
The store did the alternate upgrade thing for me, told me I would lose the data. I called customer service immediately and they told me to let the store finish then call back and they would change it back to unlimited data. They had no issues with this at all. :)
[HTC Droid DNA] SwiftLegend:
Oh ok, and I assume the rep helping us can do this for us or would it be better for me to do it on my own? (Replace SIM in Note 2 with the one in my GN and reactivate my dad's iPhone)

[HTC Droid DNA] outkast2012:
I upgrade on the Verizon website and kept unlimited data! I unlocked rooted flashed ukb and now have free wireless tether!

Sweeet!
[HTC Droid DNA] 4ktvs:
If they let you keep unlimited data and you did it the way you did, then unless they change in 14-30 days. They have to let you keep it for the rest of the 2 years. If they don't then they are braking contract and you can go with out ETF if they don't put it back to unlimited data. They may say it's only voice in the contract, but I bet the courts would not take that BS.
[HTC Droid DNA] lazarus2297:
Just another note to this thread.. while having nothing to do with my unlimited data... I find it noteworthy to point out that I still have not had the ridiculous $30 upgrade fee added to my account... So for now this upgrade via Best Buy's website has been a major win for me. :D
[HTC Droid DNA] Emx333:
When you upgraded to the DNA did you already have unlimited 4g or 3g? I am wondering if having one or the other makes a difference when you choose "existing plan". I have 3g and am wondering if that makes a difference.
[HTC Droid DNA] [TSON]:
I upgraded my sister to an iPhone 5 last month (yeah... i know.) and she kept her unlimited. I'm not sure what's going on... But I get my DNA sometime between tomorrow and Monday so we'll see if I keep it too... That'd be awesome.
[HTC Droid DNA] lazarus2297:
I already had unlimited 4G data
[HTC Droid DNA] kraziekc:
If there is a glitch in indirect's system, it is a matter of time before VZW catches on. The thing that spreads to the minds of those unaware is that VZW doesnt punish their customers and strike you with a surprise of, "Give me back my unlimited data!" The will go after BestBuy of whoever messed up. VZW is to busy worrying about paving the way for other cell companies to follow, then to worry if someone is getting unlimited data or not.

If you get put on an Unlimited data package by accident, they won't make their customer's remove the feature.

Alternate upgrades do not change your unlimited plan either. So if your on a 2gb after using another lines upgrade, be sure to call VZW within the first 14days to fix the data issue.

[HTC Droid DNA] shahr12:
I am on a family plan, my wife has 2 GB plan and I have unlimited (with 3G Incredible 2). My upgrade time was up, so I transferred my upgrade to my wife's line and ordered the DNA (from Wirefly). When I received the DNA, I activated on her line. After a couple of hours, I deactivated the DNA from her line. Put her old phone on her line. Then, I went to the Verizon store and activated the DNA on my line. My plan did not change. I now, have Unlimited DATA. So, going from 3G to 4G does not matter.:good:
[HTC Droid DNA] vargo911:
Your lucky, as for me it cost me $599 plus tax to keep my unlimited data.
[HTC Droid DNA] jreed2560:
Careful wirefly doesn't charge you an etf for not keeping the phone on the line u upgraded. Its part of the contract you sign with third party online resellers that you keep the phone on that line for 180 days

sent from my DNA Employee Edition 04271
[HTC Droid DNA] Imacellist:
One way to beat this system is to add an extra line. That line will be there to use upgrades on, and then transfer the phone to your current line. This adds $10 a month to your bill so think of it as paying $40 a month for unlimited vs 30 for 2gb. This is still cheaper than buying the phone off contract and the extra cost is not all at once. I will be doing this until Verizon stops unlimited data completely.
[HTC Droid DNA] mike_augie:
really good

gota great deal on government contract and it a awesome phone
[HTC Droid DNA] croppz:
I got my upgrade to the DNA 20 days early over the phone and got it on Friday. Activated it online and my plan has yet to change from unlimited so I'm just gonna be a data whore until Verizon hits me up haha.
[HTC Droid DNA] frankie_asc:
just wanted to share that i was able to use one of the upgrades in my granfathered family unlimited data plan 2 days ago straight from verizon. at first they wanted to get me in one of the new data plans, and i replied that there was no way i'd get in one of those so if they wouldnt respect my upgrade and stay with my unlimited i'd leave to a new company. they were willing to do the upgrade under one of the #s with out the unlimited data, then they transferred it to my phone #. hope this helps someone...

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usbrelic:
Hello everyone, I have tried a number of times last night, to get into APX mode. The forums and other people report that you simply press power and volume up.

I tried power with the volume up, over ten times. The device just reboots normally. I have to add that I have the usb cable connected at all times. Do I have to have the usb cable unplugged initially to get into APX? Also, I am working off of the unbrickable method. The next step is APX, other people who got stuck here, get past it and don't post a solution. Can anyone help me? I am going to finish this up tonight. Thank you

TF300 with ICS .29 or 30
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobdaryl:
Enter APX

1.To enter APX mode you either have to boot, choose reboot (if available) and hold volume up

pressed until it reboots and then the screen should remain black. Or if that doesn't work, completely

shutdown your tablet and wait a second or two and then hold volume up pressed while pressing

power on and keep it pressed until screen is blank.

or

2. fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot

or

3. adb reboot

2 and 3 you still hold volume up.

Good Luck!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usbrelic:
I will try this when I get home

Thank You, I wil try that when I get home tonight. I know I can get the device in "fastboot" mode so I will just do that and issue the: "fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot" command and hold the UP volume rocker.

Now that I think of it, I am going to try all methods. I dont have a reboot option after pressing power, just: "Power Off" and "Cancel." I also, never used adb, so I am going to try that out as well.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobdaryl:
I just remembered something I had previously forgotten. It has been used with success several times.

LOL, I thought you wanted me to test it first, I assumed it was for a reset but with all the back and forth about, brick this and brick that, I want to avoid all bricks by any means necessary. Thats would have made for a less than 30 days old, $300 paperweight.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobdaryl:
Don't ever do anything you are not comfortable with as you have to live with the result, not me!

Thanks for the laugh!

I should explain better. There is a reset connection on the processor, the purpose is to cause the processor to do a full restart. I don't have a schematic for this unit but normally one side of the switch goes to the reset pin and the other to ground.

I know this will not make you feel safer but just for info.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HMJJ:
Hello xda. Yesterday I recieved my galaxy note 2 in the mail and am loving it!!! I have a few problems/questions I couldnt solve nor find in the little crappy manual they give one. There are a number of things I hope someone can help me out with.

I had a htc dhd before this and I loved the ease of access to everything and anything and this im noticing isnt so "fun"

1. I notice I can not see my current running apps in my top bar, fail. Does anyone know how to fix that?

2. I cant figure out how to turn auto correct on....I know you're asking yourself, wow, this guy must be a noob..no, I have searches and cant find it and then I spell stuff like "searches" when I meant searched. ..

3. I want to know how to add, lets say, manage applications shortcut to my main page, cant do that either.

4. Im hating having to hold down the "." Button to access my commas and such. Can I move this option some how?

5. I cant stress enough...auto correct...its pissing me off big time.

6. I cant find out how to add a word to the dictionary

Someone please help me.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tomo1971:
Android has changed dude.... current running apps are now accessed by holding down the home key.

There isnt an auto correct as such. Type a word and the stock keyboard gives you some 'choices' as to what it could be your typing. It does learn itself. So, now when I start to type my second name, I only have to type the first 4 letters and it gives me it as a suggestion. If I type live, it suggests live, love or liverpool.

Not sure what you mean here TBH

Yeah, kinda agree with that been a pain but you get used to it, or use Swiftkey or another keyboard (although you lose some s-pen functionality. You could also press the SYM to the left of the keyboard.

You dont, it learns them.

Settings>Language and Input>Samsung keyboard>Predictive text>on and select what you want the system to learn from.

You can delete the learned words though, when it suggets a word, touch and hold and it asks if you want to delete it.

There is a tuturial in there too.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HMJJ:
Thanks so much for the help. Im going to to buy a htc now. This phone is crap. I assume, with the technology out today, I could at least have a phone that auto corrects...guess thats how ****ty samsung is...after all, apple is suing them for stealing ideas so I can see why this doesnt even have the most simple of featires....like wtf...featires..come on now, youre telling me I cant get my keyboard to auto correct features....featires isnt even a effin real word!!!! Im just really upset that I bought this piece....samsung blows!!!! Htc is wayy beyter now, especially because it auto corrects better and realizes that "BEYTER" isnt a real effin word. Fail samsung
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HMJJ:
Word to all! If you had a htc and are thinking of buying a samsung, dont, this phone is a piece, yea, its smooth, but so is my a$$..... im very disappointed with this phone and will most likely sell it or do a drop test on it. Watch youtube for my test if thats what I decide. If you cant get a phone to auto correct, thats pathetic. Goodbye. If anyone wants to purchase a canadian telus note 2 message me, has 12 hours of use on it. Not interested in this crap anymore.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tomo1971:
lots of LOL's.

I had a HTC One X... yeah, good phone but the N2 can do the same as the HOX and some.

Really dont know what your issue is TBH, it would be easy to change the stock keyboard, the only thing that I think you lose is the handwriting recognition in s-pen. For that, it would take like 2 seconds to swap back to stock from the top bar. Remember that the stock keyboard has swype... and I find that far more accurate than normal typing. I am finding its getting better the more I use it though. Maybe it just hasnt learnt your words yet?

I only ever used Swiftkey on the HOX but rarely use it on the Note2.

Good luck in finding that perfect phone.... remembering that the stock HTC keyboard isnt that great and you will probably change that for another after a week ;)
