Technically every 6 months if the phone is paid in full.

I'm not a tech, but if I come across a rooted phone I'll do whatever I can to help out. If a phone would still qualify for a warranty, I'll advise returning the device back to stock then seeking a technician. Otherwise I chat quite enthusiastically with users who root and ROM. Its fun after all!
[Sprint LG G3] marky310:
Question: I bought my G3 through Easy Pay so I'm paying through installments every month. Is there anyway I can pay more than the 20 bucks per month so I can pay the phone off quicker?
[Sprint LG G3] :
I had switched to the Framily plan from an old unlimited plan when I got the G3 on easy pay. I had been paying the extra for yearly upgrades. I then was eligible to switch to the new $60 unlimited plan because of easy pay. After switching, I was again shown as eligible for an upgrade so I called to confirm that it wasn't a mistake. It wasn't, so I upgraded to the N6. I don't know how this worked out but it's pretty awesome in my opinion. My other line is eligible too but my wife loves her SGS3 lol.
[Sprint LG G3] Rally187:
the only thing i dont like about the phone not being subsidized is that i cannot just trade it when ever i want. Ive always been able to have the latest phones just by doing a little craigslist research find someone who hates the new iphone trade with them then i can trade that rotten little fruit for what ever phone i want. it was easy but now that im making payments on the phone i lose that ability and now i have to pay the full price for the phone.... make sense? if so then you understand why im bummed. I love the g3 and dont plan on leaving her just yet but cmon.... we've all been here before.
[Sprint LG G3] kmthomas2009:
When you say paying extra do you mean paying more than what the bill was and having a credit on the line? Reason asking is because I'm a huge tech junkie. And like to upgrade phones and i am in love with the nexus 6 but on sprint website it says im not eligible for an upgrade until August. So do i pay extra on the bill or how did you do this?
[Sprint LG G3] :
There used to be an option to pay $20 a month for unlimited data and annual upgrades. When I changed plans, I asked the rep if I'd still be eligible and she said yes, I'm grandfathered in. But, I only had the G3 since launch and was eligible for a full upgrade after switching from Framily to the new $60 unlimited plan.
[Sprint LG G3] kmthomas2009:
Ok i may check that out. Im currently on the framily plan with unlimited everything and had this phone since August so i will most certainly check that out. It's just me and my fiance on the plan.
[Sprint LG G3] :
Again, I'm pretty sure the reason I was able to switch plans, was because I had purchased the G3 on easy pay. But there are other terms of eligibility as well. Definitely worth checking into. Meanwhile, I am set to receive my N6 on Thursday. [emoji41]
[Sprint LG G3] kmthomas2009:
I pay a month on my g3 so I'm on easy pay right? I don't know how much i pay on it because it's part of the bill lol
[Sprint LG G3] kmthomas2009:
Do you know if switching to the $60 unlimited plan from the framily plan triggers an upgrade? Evolution freak says it did for his. My fiance wants the iphone 6 and get away from Samsung but can't upgrade until August next year. It will be like a $40 jump in the bill but she is willing to pay that lol let me know if you know if it will or not.
[Sprint LG G3] austontatious:
Yes, on the G3 you can pay it off early to get your upgrade. You're probably talking about $400ish but that's definitely an option.
[Sprint LG G3] austontatious:
Switching plans would probably not reset eligibility in itself, but Sprint has allowed early upgrades with easy pay. So if you were on the everything data 1500 plan and had upgraded a year ago, you could probably do an easy pay upgrade now. But if you got a new phone three months a ago, you're still stuck no matter what plan you are on.
[Sprint LG G3] kmthomas2009:
How do i do that? Everyone here in. Tacoma, WA act like I'm speaking Chinese lol i can't pay it all off at once but want to pay more than $20.
[Sprint LG G3] austontatious:
Dial *3 from your phone and just tell them you want to apply a payment to your ez pay balance.
[Sprint LG G3] kmthomas2009:
You my friend are amazing. Thank you for that info.
[Sprint LG G3] syndre:
I had a galaxy s3 and now I use a LGG3, my question is on both phones my connection has a 4G icon for data but when I start downloading something it switches to 3G about 5mb into the download. I have only really noticed this at home. Is there anything I can do on my end to force the connection to stay 4G?
[Sprint LG G3] Spaniard85:
Try updating Profile and PRL from the system update menu in settings. If that doesn't help, try ##SCRTN# from the dialer to the phone reprogram itself. Allow the phone ample time after it reboots to successfully reprovision.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
Do you have any idea, or know where I can find out, what "Global" under Mobile Networks (in settings) means? How does it different from LTE / CDMA? Is the global setting necessary to use the phone with an overseas SIM card?

Thanks.
[Sprint LG G3] Mahapederdon:
How do I reset my voicemail after uninstall ing Google voice. I just get a busy signal and when someone else calls it just rings forever.
[Sprint LG G3] jrebo:
Did you try *38 ?
[Sprint LG G3] t1vengeful:
I read that the old Google service framework trick doesn't work anymore when trying to force updates.. Any fancy dialer codes that could help get ZV6 any faster?
[Sprint LG G3] Mahapederdon:
Yeah. I finally chatted online and they had to re activate my voicemail. Thanks for the help.
[Sprint LG G3] misfit0313:
I've been paying a $10 ”premium data" charge per line for years. 8-10 days a month my time is spent in roaming. My time not in roaming is often far away from any LTE service. Any way to get Sprint to drop the premium data charge?
[Sprint LG G3] hellot1M:
They will never drop that charge but with these issues you may be able to get reoccurring credits for up to 6+ months. I've dealt with several customers who have been getting $20 credits every month for nearly a year because of network issues. Not sure how they were able to obtain those but ive seen enough to know its possible. Also if you are out of contract then there are cheaper plans you can switch to and if you decide to upgrade, all the new phones have built in WiFi calling which would help when you are at home. Beyond that, if you are still not satisfied, sprint will waive any fee it may cost you to port to another carrier with service in your area.
[Sprint LG G3] vincey2kr1:
I can't get Sprint to acknowledge I'm in horrible network area, my home was built in o9 and there coverage map shows my house at a different area in sprints own coverage map.
[Sprint LG G3] tkuligowski:
want replacement phone

I got my G3 this summer and something I noticed immediately about it is the call quality is really horrible, but it's not always consistent. I have total equipment protection. I took my phone to a Sprint repair center and they said the couldn't replicate the issue I was talking to them about, but they did replace my phone speaker. The issue is still there though. Voices sound funny almost robotic at times. They said they won't replace my phone unless they can acknowledge the issue. I'm a bit frustrated. When I was on Verizon if my phone was under warranty if I had an issue they would always just send me a new one and let me send one back. I've never had these kind of problems before. I'd like to try a new phone but I don' t know how to go about it since they can't replicate the issue.
[Sprint LG G3] MikeDroid:
It's for Sprint global roaming. When you ask Sprint to enable international roaming, they tell you to switch your setting to global. Not sure if it's necessary for international unlock and sim though. If I recall, last time I came back from Europe, i just left it on global and the phone worked fine. There's probably some subtle differences though.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
Thanks. That's what I suspected. Mine came set to Global as the default, though, so I wondered.
[Sprint LG G3] jbrow314:
So I'm rooted and running Barin which I love but I do have a question. My charger stopped working and I called Sprint and they told me to take it into the store, so I can get another one since its under warranty. Will they check out my phone? I know it's the charger since my other chargers are working fine. I just don't want them to say they won't replace it if they look at my phone and see it's rooted and has a custom ROM.

Thanks.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
Did they specifically say bring the phone in? Or could you just take the charger? Certainly they have other phones they can use to test the charger.

But to answer your question, the few times I've been to a Sprint store they didn't really seem to care if my phone was rooted or not.
[Sprint LG G3] austontatious:
YMMV, but at my store we don't care. I believe the unofficial sprint policy is that if we can flash it back to stock we will work on them. Be nice to the tech and he probably won't care.
[Sprint LG G3] mjjcb:
Can Sprint detect the use of hotspots if we're on a custom kernel? I've read conflicting commentary. I used it now and then with my Galaxy s3 on various roms and never gave it a second thought, but I read somewhere in my new G3 life that they can if certain things aren't in check. Some of the newer builds have that functionality now.

Thanks,

Mike
[Sprint LG G3] viper kota:
What I would really like to know is.

Why does Sprint give bigger discounts to say UPS than Military and Veterans?

also, i just got 2 lg g3 phones direct from amazon (alot better price then sprint will be able to offer for the next 2 years). fine that it renewed my contract, but do i really have to pay activation fees? i dont recall ever having to pay that before when i "upgraded", course it has also been almost 3 years since i got a new phone.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
For the first question, large companies typically negotiate the discounts, and Sprint probably calculated that they'd get more UPS customers as a result of the discount than military personnel. Possibly because military tend to move around a lot, and may be more likely to choose a GSM phone that can be used anywhere in the world. I have no inside knowledge beyond the fact that discounts are negotiated.

It may well be the DOD never attempted to negotiate discounts, and Sprint is doing that of their own free will.

As far as activation fees, that's generally the price you pay when buying from a 3rd party rather than directly from Sprint. When I've upgraded directly through Sprint, they've always waived the fee. But I think the fee is where companies like Amazon make their profit on cell phones. They're certainly not making it on the 1 cent or 1 dollar sale price.
[Sprint LG G3] viperkota:
well i know for sure (according to Amazons site) they get a commission style payment for selling the phones, pretty much anything that sell them for is a profit. but Amazon isnt charging the activation fee, sprint is.

As for the DOD doing it or not, not sure...as all carriers i have looked at have the 15%, though have read plenty of stories of veterans getting higher percentages, but they dont explain what they did or "complained" about.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
So the activation fee reimburses Sprint for the commission, maybe.
[Sprint LG G3] viperkota:
lol, why does sprint need reimbursement? dont they rip everyone off enough? lol, $200 for the phone or even higher on the easy pay? screw it, ill be happy to pay $36.01, but only if i cant get out of it. took 3 years for a phone to come out to get me from my last one. and not once did i need service on it or need sprint for anything other than the service.

but on a serious note...could be.....but gonna ask if i can get it removed...just have to call them. the radio on 1 lg g3 went dead in under 30 days, amazon is taking care of it, just waiting on it to get back....though i am seriously happy that amazon has excellent customer service, wish they did phone service.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
Umm, if you're getting the phone for a penny, and Sprint is paying a commission to Google, how do you come up with $200 for the phone?

If you get the phone at a Sprint store, they're getting $100 or more from your purchase. If you get it from Amazon, they're paying for you to purchase it.
[Sprint LG G3] viperkota:
lol, ok. if i go to sprint and have good credit, i get it for $199.99 or about $420 or so thru the flex pay. yes i got it thru amazon for 1 cent, but they still get a commission from sprint..how much? no clue, but i doubt they lose anything since they do all the shipping.
[Sprint LG G3] texasjmzmd:
Don't throttle me bro!

http://www.androidauthority.com/spr...g-defend-new-data-throttling-practice-379766/
[Sprint LG G3] MikeDroid:
Seems like they've been doing that anyway. I could have strong 4G but the second I need it, the signal mysteriously falls to 3G or an unusable form of 4G. I could make a list. The only thing I really like about Sprint is the consistent and predictable billing, however its looking like that might not be unique to Sprint anymore.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
That's dated last May, you realize? And I haven't seen any hue and cry from users being throttled since then. Unlike AT&T and T-Mobile, who throttle routinely and regularly.
[Sprint LG G3] viperkota:
since i m temp on my old phone, it seems like they do, but then i just switch the tether apps and all back to normal. im sure its just the phone and the fact of 3g only since wimax was a crap.
[Sprint LG G3] The_Big_H:
Question. I bought my G3 from Best Buy online. It has developed a crack by the IR Blaster, bottom mic hole and by the USB port, like the ones reported here: http://www.phonearena.com/news/LG-G...cracks-through-the-microphone-opening_id59667

Can I walk in to a Sprint store and exchange it for a new one?
[Sprint LG G3] joeyhdownsouth:
How about the LTE location issue? When using LTE in Louisiana my location for all weather widgets shows Harvey, LA. I don't live in Harvey. If I switch to 3g and update weather, it shows the correct city every time.

[Sprint LG G3] Heavy Fluid:
This is a really dumb question, but I will ask anyway. Background: just moved to Sprint with an LG G3 after years on Verizon with a GS3 and then a Moto X. On Verizon, on either of the phones, you could go into the calls, and call history, and it would show you how long each call was, regardless of incoming or outgoing. On this G3 on Sprint, I cannot access that information for some reason as it simply is not there. It is not the phone, confirmed with a coworker on an LG G3 on Verizon, and she can see this by going under call logs and it shows.

Is there a way to force this to show or am I missing something? I can provide screenshots if necessary if there is confusion.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
Sprint has hidden this information on every phone I've ever had. Don't know why. There are a number of 3rd party apps in the play store that will show a full call log. I use Call History:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.main.itinfo.tan.callhistory
[Sprint LG G3] Heavy Fluid:
Thank you for the information. I had Sprint many years ago and left due to poor service and even worse customer service. I am kind of surprised that they withhold this information, and I am not sure why they would, or would want to? I will be checking out that app here shortly.

Because they don't have them optimised for Lollipop themselves yet probably. I doubt they can release proper support for AOSP before the general release without some customer backlash.

[P3600 Software Upgrading] anditanadi:
Hi to all you Pros out there.

Have been on this Trinity Upgrading thread since Feb 1st when I got my new unit (Dopod D810).

What I can't figure out is this..

I CANNOT get Calligrapher to Stick as the Default Input Mode. When I select it under Input mode, it will just Jump back to Keyboard mode. Somehow it would not allow me to use Calligrapher as the Input Mode.

Just want to know it is the Trinity ROMs somehow (I been thru ALL the ROMs Shipped or Test) without being able to resolve this..

Anyone else got this same Conflict / Problem? Or is it maybe just my Unit with this Problem?

Thanks in advance for any Comment / Advice / Help / Hack??

Cheers,

Yes/No

DCIM will always be defaulted to the internal storage.

But...

Open camera (I assume stock camera) when you enter the settings menu you'll have 3 tabs, I believe in the final tab, the one with the tools icon you can set whether files should be saved on your SD-Card or internal storage.

[Asus Transformer TF700] EvilHomerClone:
I have an Asus tf700t that i rooted a long time ago and was running Cromi-x 5.something. I also have TWRP recovery installed.

I can't even remember the details now but at one point about 12 months ago, i when to do a wipe & flash (which i did many times and I felt very confident doing with TWRP) and something went wrong.

All my tablet does now is turn on and flash at the TeamWin screen, that's it. I've allowed for the battery to drain, I've attempted holding the volume key in to boot into recovery, I've removed the SD card...nothing seems to get me un stuck.

I attached my tablet to my pc (which now is windows 8.1 x64) and all I get is an Unknown Transformer device. I have attempted to download and install the google SDK kit along with the original items i used to root my device, none of them seem to "click in".

Am I looking at a dead unit here?

[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Did you use Wipe Data from the bootloader menu?

If yes, you may be in a forced reboot to recovery loop.

First thing to try is to connect the tablet to power and leave it in TWRP. If you're lucky it'll sort it out and eventually execute the wipe data command. I would leave it for 8 hours or so....

Can you get into the bootloader = fastboot mode?

When in TWRP do you get it recognized with

adb devices

?
