My contract is up in May, so I'll still be around this great forum for a while, but I'm thinking I will be going the Nexus direction as well.

I realize that a lot goes into making a phone, but how would you make your own phone if you could pick and order "a la carte"?

Right now, my perfect phone would be the Nexus 5 with internal specs of the LG G2. My phone would also have 32+gig internal memory, expandable memory up to 64gig, removable battery, HTC One sound system and Lumina camera.

What would be your perfect phone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MiguelHogue:
So sprint sent me a letter saying they are terminating my contract due to excessive roaming.. But the thing is I only forced roamed a few weeks (watched a couple shows on Netflix and that was it)

Guess I better start shopping for a new carrier :what:

The thing that gets me is some people force roam months straight downloading torrents, roms, etc & don't get kicked

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FuMMoD:
Haha thats horrible and then there's those people that do the force roaming to get kicked off on purpose.

On a side note for those of us venturing off to the Nexus 5. Does anyone want to perhaps work on a rom together? I'm really interested in learning and have my building environment setup already :D. Minus the virtual device since I havent found a tutorial for that yet.

So I just wanted to let you guys know, I'll be leaving the community for a while starting on the 28th when I go to basic training. I'll be giving my E4GT to my little sister at that time.

I'll be back though, I won't be using the E4GT unless I see something better to flash on here for her to use. I'll have to check back in here to see what devices you guys are using so sometime around the end of January. I'm hoping the Nexus 5 comes to Verizon and gets better updates than the Galaxy Nexus did If not I'll have to see what else they have to offer... I kind of owe it to my aunt for paying for my cell phone for almost a year, otherwise I would just go to another service provider. I'll probably end up paying for my share for a full year and then some so that she can have some extra spending money for herself.

I am also using one net gear router. Mine is the R4500. I have 5 computers on Wi-Fi. 5 phones. A printer. Wii. PS3. And two TV's. And about 3 hard wired devices. Oh and 3 security cameras. Mine is in the basement and I get a strong signal on my top floor and outside.

If you are using two access points make sure you disable auto channels. Make each one static at opposite ends. So 1 and 11 for example. Also try tuning the power so that each one isn't blasting full power. That can cause issues with chatter. And you said two routers so if you have them both on as routers disable one. You should only have one router and one as WiFi only.

If i had to guess I'd say around 3000 sq ft. The problem is that it has to go in the basement. It's a finished basement...directly above the access point is my living room and directly above that is my bedroom. Typical early 1980's home construction.

Thanks guys...i appreciate the tips and advice.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FuMMoD:
I do a lot of private security work and I was going to get a loss prevention job in highschool. I went through the interview and had to turn them down since I got a better paying job at the airport. Basicly they want you to be very customer service friendly. You pretty much have no power to do anything, all you can do is report and call the cops if you catch someone. You really can't hold a person against their will if you catch them stealing. Basicly what you do is monitor cameras and if you suspect someone about to shoplift or in the act of shoplifting you go and walk around the area near them and look at items next to them in order to get their attention. If you do catch them stealing on the cameras you call the cops right away. Oh and if someone comes and pulls a gun to a cashier to take money it's company policy to give them the money and not be a hero. Don't worry it's not your money so don't risk your life for a few hundreds bucks that the company already factors into as loss.

Miguel,

I got kicked for excessive roaming. I ported my number to Ting (i didn't want to loose the number). But the reality is that Sprint is the best bang for your buck....even with their slow speeds. After about 45 days with Ting, I saw a really good deal for the S4 ($119) on ported numbers. So.....I ported my line back to sprint and and it's like I never left.

I was really close to renewing my contract when I got the excessive roaming letter. I had multiple upgrades available and for about 30 days I was communicating with Sprint telling them I didn't want to leave. They told me that it was out their hands and that once the excessive roaming has been initiated, there is no stopping it.

Long story short...I was able to use 2 upgrades for S4's and then cancelled those lines 15 days later....no ETF's.

The thing was I didn't have a problem with sprint as well (fast lte here in DC) .. I only roamed when I went to my cousins house since he lived in a area I didn't receive signal.. So it wasn't continuous. They gave me a little time so not sure what I'm going to do.. I might flash to page plus.. I still love my note 2 and skipped the note 3

No, the virtual device to run ROM's won't work with the jellybean setup unless you build from source. It requires an img file to run and nand backups save as tar files now. I'll get you the link to that anyhow so you can check it out.

Hey that reminds me what do you all think about the S2 running on kit Kat?! I just saw a article on androidpit and thought it's an amazing idea for the S2 to have KitKat. I really don't want to get rid of my S2. I'm so attracted to it and it is an amazing phone.

No. Theu are a 3g cdma company only right now that use verizon towers. So like u can call *22890 and activate say an og droid or htc dinc, etc... 3g phones. 4g phones are a whole nother animal for page plus. You have to get your number switched to the imei (drop last digit) and then hook phone up to computer, to write data keys to so it can use verizon towers 3g, flash a verizon prl, write your min and mdn and many other things to the device and most important to make it work switch it from ruim(sim) to nv(non-sim) so this will work.

Not sure if new nexus 5 can do that. And ibe beeen googling. Noone has tried or has been succesful yet.

If i could i would switch to t-mobile or simple mobile, but im stuck having to use verizon towers cuz when im here at home with family verizon is the only thing that works.

Question for all of you guys, I've been tasked with selling our old pos terminals found them on eBay but prices are all over the place. Any ideas on where to go from here? We just want them gone I've tried reaching out to some of the sellers on eBay with zero luck so far. None of us at the store have a sellers account and not to mention what to list for shipping costs darn things weigh a ton. Any input would be greatly appreciated

I could part it all out each of the parts are selling but would rather not have all that time invested not to mention seeing little bit of return at a time.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Have you tried Craigslist? And on Ebay, you have the option of having the buyer pay the shipping as part of the final price, and they understand that. Setting up an account takes about 2 minutes, and I'd get with the boss about setting up a work paypal acct to keep it all on the up and up. But check Craigslist too, might get someone local that's interested.

Well I guess I was in a hurry. :D

I've got engaged when I was 20 and got married when I was 21....

And now almost 30 years later still married to same woman...

I've got my first when I was 22 (a boy) and second when I was in service by 24 (a daughter).

Now they are 28 and 26...... All grown up.

My son works for Google now and my daughter is in law school....

And I'm not too old to see how they build their lives and carriers and be happy for them...

And I have good chances to enjoy my grand kids when they arrive... :D

But let me tell you this.

You are never completely ready and there is always something you wanna do or accomplish before your kids are born.

BUT.....

Every kid is born his/her piece of luck and brings that luck and happiness to you and your family and and with every kid new doors are open and new opportunities present themselves......

And you are closer to your kids when the age difference not too big and you still can remember how you were in their age and

you can be a father and a friend to them...

I think that's very important..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] moparfreak426:
I wish to god I could work for Google someday but.... That's not going to happen with my grades now :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
My son's grades weren't that great either.

He graduated school with 3.45 GPA. Only 2.5 years in US so there were some language problems.

Went to college and then moved to bay area to try his luck.

He start working in and entry level position in a small company there and moved up not with his grades but with his work.

He was working for Intel when he got offer from Google. He moved there just few months ago.

Grades are very important but they not everything...

Hard work and little bit of luck are very important as well.

I moved to US when I was almost 40 with no English knowledge at all..

As of today I'm working as a project manager and structural engineer in large construction company.

I started as an entry level drafter and worked my way up as well......

Live experience did prove to me that hard work and bit luck to be at right place at the right time are

as important as knowledge and grades...

So don't give up on your dreams just yet just because your grades are not as good as you want them to be..

Unfortunately with that attitude you most cetainly won't. Grades are a way of seeing how much you have retained. If people got hired because of their grades, their would be alot more in the unemployment line. That goes for me. I have a hard time with books, but hands on is like having a cup of coffee. I work in a R and D facility with nothing but college grads except in the maintenance. None of them were high markers, but they had drive, determination and ideas. With that being said, try your hardest to get the best grade in all your classes, but remember a 4.0 GPA does not guaruntee a perfect job.
