So Who all's gonna jump on this new upgrade option titled "edge". I'm just curious what everyone thinks. I see both positives and negatives to both sides.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sbrownla:
I'm going to with our next upgrade. It's expensive but I figure a new insured phone each year is worth it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DaemonAshra:
Nah....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nrfitchett4:
I did it for the HTC One. Going to try it out. Paying 25bucks a month, I can either trade it in later or pay it off and keep it. To me, its no different than buying the phone outright and then selling it for half value.

Now if you have an upgrade available and can do the upgrade shuffle to keep unlimited, I would do that instead. But I'm being impatient.

Oh, and it let me keep unlimited.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Morkai Almandragon:
Wait, WHAT? The advertisements specifically said only family share plans were eligible for Edge?!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Wool02:
I did the exact same thing. Enrolled in Edge, bought the HTC One, and kept unlimited. And I wasn't eligible for an upgrade on this line until November 2014. :)

Here is the link, I'm surprised it's not getting more attention:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shiftr182:
I upgrade on average once a year, maybe twice depending on what Samsung puts out. I usually get phones about a month or so after they come out off swappa or craigslist for about half the price of new. I used an upgrade to get the S3, then upgraded to the Note 2 about 3 months later. I sold the S3 for 450 and got the Note for 375. When the S4 came out, people were trying to trade straight across for the note 2. I could have "upgraded" but chose to stick with the note. So I figure it would cost me less to continue doing my upgrades as I have then it would be to go with edge. Phone companies are never working for you, its always about making money. We will see how good edge really is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BennyJr:
Seems like a ripoff
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrlaigle:
"Seems like"...?

I would like to raise that to a more definative "It is a ripoff".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] alhadee12:
I'm getting it right now to see if I like this phone instead of shelling out $200-300. If I don't like it, it goes back and the out of pocket is minimal. I'll probably get the Note 3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] galaxie500fb:
They get enough from me already.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] neckbonest:
it does seem like a rip off BUT if you can upgrade up to twice a year and keep unlimited data.

those are both pluses in my book. yes it will cost you more but its only money.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrlaigle:
You cannot keep unlimited.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] neckbonest:
you can also add it to your bill and not pay anything out of pocket

---------- Post added at 05:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 PM ----------

my mistake, i thought i read some people on here kept there unlimited data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrlaigle:
No biggy. If you could keep unlimited it it wouldn't be such a bad deal. As is though you are painting Dame price for service and also paying basically for a phone hag you just turn back into verizon for no credit and then buy more. It's a win win for them here...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ronaldheld:
Anyone think it is worth ot to lose unlimited data?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joshm.1219:
Absolutely not.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] evolishesh:
Hell no! To loose unlimited is like loosing the right to have Internet on your phone. You might as well have a dummy phone or flip phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cmraymond:
The only one that is truly a good deal is Tmobiles Jump program. It's 10 dollars and that includes full insurance. So basically you end up not paying much extra to upgrade every 6 months. Plus, you don't have to have your phone half paid for. The only downside... It's t-mobile service. Otherwise, you are paying a lot more with Verizon edge.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] refusedchaos:
I might try this out with the Note 3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ronaldheld:
OK off to pay full price to keep my data plan as is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] REYES702:
I'm not a huge fan of the "upgrade whenever you want as long as you have X% paid off after the 1st 6 months" sales pitch. It is definitely a way to drum up business though and some will like it, others will have no interest.

I'd rather just keep my phone I have for awhile. I got my Note2 because my POS Motorola DR. Maxx headphone jack kept fµcking up and I had to use my warranty exchange 5 seperate times. My brand new OTB Maxx even broke after less than 3 months of having the damn thing. Anyway, the CSR managed to "finagle" her way into getting approval that I can use my warranty exchange and change my phone model without signing a new contract or using any kind of upgrade. I just had to pay for the battery and battery cover and buy my own S-pen. I was super stoked they gave me the option to get any phone I wanted, haha. My upgrade isn't til next April so no rush now! Before I couldn't wait to drop my POS Maxx.

Anyway, I think phones now a days, especially the Note 2, you can keep for 2 years without having to worry about falling off the curve. I mean what are they gonna make that is going to make the Note2 quad-core struggle like it's running DOS, haha.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Wool02:
People are keeping unlimited. Read the link I posted previously. The current glitch requires you to NOT be eligible for an upgrade.

Will VZW ultimately honor this glitch? Not sure but I'm sending this from my new HTC One, I'm enrolled in Edge, and I still have unlimited data.

*Edit - And it appears the glitch is closed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ihavenewnike:
So what is the better option for me? I have unlimited data BTW. So do I "Edge" and get the Note 3 once it comes out, and keep unlimited data? Or do I use my Moms account and Edge that one, and take that device and switch it over to my line?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Morkai Almandragon:
source for this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lodingi:
I have read the glitch has been patched. So those with unlimited data should proceed with caution.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mr. Toad:
If you edge your line you will lose unlimited data. If you edge your mother's line you can't use the subsidy to get a phone. The device payment plan might be with it. Pay it off on 12 months plus $2 finance fee per month. Our of you have a Best Buy credit card have them price match and finance it at 0 percent for 18 months.

You could also add a line, cancel the data on it and pay the $9.99 plus tax for 24 months.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ihavenewnike:
How do you cancel the data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] P2o8wer:
I was gonna do it, but the phone is over $1,000. I'll just add a line.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mr. Toad:
On Verizon the phone should be $699.99.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BoostedB18C:
$1000 phone? Must be the iphone 6

Sent From My Sticky Note, Too?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mr. Toad:
Call customer service or do it online.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] P2o8wer:
That's what I thought it would be. When she told me $1,099 I almost feel over. Maybe that was with the watch?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mr. Toad:
When I try to preoder the Note 3 it shows $699.99. Of you do the Note 3 and Galaxy Gear combo the price is $999.99. I would call and speak to someone else if r order online.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] alhadee12:
It should be no more than $750 with taxes depending on where you live. It's definitely not $1100.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shaaaft:
no
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wayneman36:
I won't be doing that I still have unlimited data I'll keep buying my phones
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
Activating a dumbphone incapable of data on that line instantly cancels the data plan.

SOURCE: only done it about 10 times or so. Lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ihavenewnike:
Cool thanks. Will do. I am thinking about the note 3, but am not for sure on it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vballrkc:
But you CAN'T do this while under a 2 year contract....right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
You sure can. Activate any dumbphone on any line with data and the data plan goes right away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vballrkc:
Well what happens if you do that, and then deactivate the dumb phone and reactivate a smart phone? I guess the real question i'm trying to ask is is there a way out there that will allow me to use my galaxy note 2 but not have to pay for data, even though i signed a 2 year contract a couple months ago.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mfinlay04:
Horrible plan IMHO. Only way this plan would make any sense would be to offer a monthly plan discount to go with it... As of now your better off buying a phone off swappa or craigslist... Will be cheaper still
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TrojanDroid:
Verizon won't let you activate a smart phone without a data plan (I tried with an iPhone 4S for my daughter). I didn't even buy it through them, so there was no two year contract involved.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vballrkc:
Thank you.

I work with a team of people who create learning content for all the PocketPC devices, and we have hit a problem with the Alpine (in our case the QTek 2020i) which has got us all stumped.

if you go to a web page that has both a flash movie in it, and a normal html-style link to another page, clicking the link forces the browser to shut!

- has anybody else seen this happening?

- does anybody know if there is an upgrade to the browser we could try?
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] DotN:
I had a similar problem today.

I wanted to view the "princess" flash animation created by the 2 guys that did South Park (google it if u don't know what I'm talking about).

Anyhow, when I viewed the original html page showing the swf file, I got a message box prompting me to continue with the rest of the page - I assume this is an inbuilt feature when dealing with BIG web pages?

It was difficult to view the animation correctly due to the poor navigation offered within IE so I tried to view the actual .swf file directly.

This caused the browser to crash after a few seconds of "thinking about it".

Cheers

my note 2 would last me from 6am to 12am comfortably. with this phone i start to worry at 9pm.

a little of topic but felt like pointing it out.

anyways my question was if anyone can help me identify what carrier my phone was originally supposed to be with.

I was told it was unlcoked so i could use it with rogers. not sure who it was with before. just curious.

the info on the phone says base band 4a.14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01L

kernel 3.4.10-g7db88a0

build number 1.29.631.17CL 164689.

I bought the pro version of this software after hearing a lot about it. I live on the edge and support software developers.

Experience 1. Free version looks OK so I pay for the pro version. It tells me I don't have root. I clearly do. I'm running CM 10.2. I have root. I try several things it suggests, nothing works. Reboot and it works.

Experience 2. Try to actually back something up. It tells me I have insufficient free space. I have 9 gigs free on the internal card, have a brand new 32 gig SD card, and I'm trying to backup one small app. Searching the Internet shows dozens of the same complaint. I tried a few suggestions and none worked so far. I'm giving up for now.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] cavsoldier19d:
For reasons unknown, you are having a bad experience. I have used titanium backup religiously across several different android devices dating all the way back to the original galaxy s 1 running eclair android version 2.1. And in my experiences, due to the complex nature of TB, its really more than just checking if the device has basic root access. If the device is not properly rooted or missing other required configurations, it will not work properly. And considering that you are running CM which isnt even stable yet on this device, its likely an issue with the ROM. If you run what I am running or stock, TB works just fine. Or you can troubleshoot the issue in the ROM thread you are running.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] ExploreMN:
Are you rooted? If yes, did you grant it permissions for root access when prompted? Did you configure it to backup to your SD card?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] rumatt:
I had done all of those things except configure the backup path to the SD card. But I had lots free on the device too so it made no sense.

But changing the path to the SD card fixed the error so I'm in business.
