Yeah, you're going to have to explain why they actually "suck". So far I don't see what the complaint is about. Unless you ask for faster shipping, a week is the listed normal ship time. As for the shipper leaving the item on the door, that might be on the shipper as I know my correspondence from UPS said this item needed to be signed for upon delivery. And you don't specify what the $75 was for. Your bill for the T-mobile service? I don't get it. I'm pretty certain all carriers charge you to use their service. (I know for a fact that my T-mobile bill is massively cheaper than Fi since I run about 10GB or more of data per month.)

mine came with a 20$ upgrade fee or something fee which i didn't appreciate...but doing the payment system my first payment was $80 for the phone. they shipped the phone 1 day air which requires a signature though.

My experience has been awesome with tmo! I just switched in August from lifetime with AT&T. Night and day better in customer service. I ordered my tmo V30 on Oct 5th and the rep gave me free overnight and I got it on the 6th! He waived all activation fees and even included a free sim. You must of just gotten in touch with a bad rep.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] jsgraphicart:
I ordered my V30 from T-Mobiles website last Friday. I arranged for it to be delivered to a UPS store since I knew I wasn't going to be home to receive it. It arrived there today and I am going to pick it up after work. Everything seemed pretty straight forward for me. Can't wait to have it in my hands
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] MikeyNick:
Dunno what you're on about mate. I was one of the many disappointed that they failed so hard on stocking stores on the 13th. Tried over the weekend but when the 16th rolled around I decided to hit up support. I explained that I was disappointed, that if they had it in stores like their advertisements said they would, I would already have it in hand. I asked them to ship it to me overnight. I wasn't rude, but I didn't say "please" either. I said "at this point I don't think it's too much to ask to have it overnighted to me". They made it happen. No support/upgrade fee, no shipping fee, no nothing. It was at my door 2 days later (didn't ship out the day I put in the request).

And good luck getting a better experience with any of the other carriers.

The money they charged you was for the tax ya dingus. Stop whining on here and call customer service and ask. They'll tell you it's that taxes for the phone.

Their customer service is the absolute best in the business.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Septembersrain:
T-Mobile will charge $20 upgrade fee if you are not trading in a device.

For me it was $80 plus taxes up front. So about $150. I traded in my 6s.

I'm using a loophole in my JUMP 1 in order to fiancee more than one phone with only one line. Then I keep one and trade one in.

Next year, I'll likely trade my V30.

If not, I'll pay the the upgrade fee if I decide to keep both of my devices.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] dragion:
I've been a T-Mobile customer for almost 20 years and have had excellent customer service when I needed it in the past.

I pre-ordered my LG V30 on the 5th of Oct and received it next day on the 6th.

I'm on the Jump One plan and upgraded from my V20...ended paying $130 total, $80 down and $50 in State Tax.

Started with LG G4, V10 to V20 and now V30.

Best one yet! :good:

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcsww:
Out of all the carriers I have used across 3 countries, T-Mobile is the only one I can say really goes above and beyond the norm. They do send you a text for any payments, which is something I like. I am enrolled in auto-pay, so it is nice to get that text and payment confirmation when it happens. When you pay the full price for a phone, they willingly unlock it without question, once you request it. Most other carriers charge you a fee. Whether I walk into a T-Mobile store in Kentucky, Virginia, Florida, New York, or any other state. I have always been treated like a valued customer.

The closest thing to T-Mobile is I have also used is Telus in Canada. They are just the best of the average and do nothing to make me feel like I want to do business with them. Then again, compared to the alternatives in Canada and the UK. You feel like you really have very little choice. In the US, it isn't much different. My girlfriend is currently on AT&T and the issues I end up yelling at them for will ensure I never give them my business, ever! The treatment I witnessed a friend receive in a Verizon store northern Kentucky was so bad, I am shocked her boyfriend didn't go to the store and punch some manors and respect into the face of that sales person.

Anyway... What is your issue(s) with them? Do you not have some sort of unlimited plan? If you do have overages, they will take those when they are calculated, if you are subscribed to auto-pay separately from your monthly service fees transaction. You really don't give any reason for you not being happy with them.

There is two basic ways to run 'service'. . There is proactive and then there is reactive. . Proactive earns them good feelings. . Reactive earns them money. I did all this purchasing over the phone because I found their website less than optimal. . I did want to order immediately ( because last year did not go so well being late to the ordering ) and I did not want to take a work day off to purchase a phone.

.

I didn't want the 'everything' plan but that is what i got. . I did not want to be charged for a month's service when I got thirteen day's worth but that is what i got. . I did not want to have the 'very expensive item' dropped blind on the door step because . . . I know the kid down the block is 'not' such a fantastic example of a human being. . ( maybe he got dropped on his head when he was a baby - so it's not really his fault . . . ) . I did not want or ask for the purchase of JUMP plan but that is what I got.

.

Every thing / step they did was to increase their ( automatic ) intake of money ! . How about the novel approach of asking me...

.

So i called them up and got it all straightened out . . But I 'had to call' !

I"ve read your opening post and your follow up and I still don't know what the hell you're crying about. You make a bold title and then proceed to confuse people. You're mad because they chose UPS?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] old_fart:
Groan . . .

Post #18 lines it up . . . . Ya, the delivery scarred the crap out of me and got me upset, but more so, they charge, and then you find out about the charges and then you have to go about fixing it. . I made that post before I called for service . . . Fortunately the phone service rep was nice !
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcsww:
You should try AT&T! When they start to realize you are unhappy with their demands and scams, they just hang up on you or put you on hold in one of those endless loops. As much as must of us don't need or want the expensive plans that come with subsidizing a premium device. The alternative is buying the device outright to avoid that. There is no perfect carrier! If T-Mobile doesn't offer options you like. There are alternatives. Whether they are better or not, is entirely based on your own personal opinions.

Have you ever seen what it takes to get a new carrier subsidized device up in Canada? You pay about $85 a month for unlimited nationwide calling and texting and your data is separate on top of that. $45 for 6GB of data and no, there are no unlimited options. Slap on 13% tax and you are looking at about $150 a month for a single line for less than what most carriers in the US will give you for under $50. If it wasn't for proactive companies like T-Mobile trying to keep rates reasonable, then companies like AT&T and Verizon would have you paying a heck of a lot more.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Japultra:
How did they sign you up for Jump without your permission? That seems a bit far-fetched?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Septembersrain:

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] bkeaver:
Ok I'm going to put my 2 cents in because I have dealt with every phone carrier as for 18 years it was my job. They all have their quirks and screw up but T-Mobile seems to be the only carrier that will go out of their way to fix the issue and make it right. And let me add that if you don't get anywhere with customer care then emailing John Legere's office always gets the resolution done. There is no carrier out there besides T-Mobile that you can email Corp and responds let alone resolves issues.

My point to this all is, if you have an issue and you have to come here and whine and cry about it then you didn't even try to resolve whatever your issue is/was.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcsww:
Well stated!

I have never had to personally contact corporate but the option is there through the website. The couple of times over the many years I have been a T-Mobile customer that I felt my issue(s) were not resolved with the first rep I spoke to. Asking for a supervisor got it done and they have always started out with, "I am sorry the previous agent couldn't resolve your issues!" and then ensure things get resolved. Although I rarely visit stores unless I am going in to pick up and buy something, I have never had or personally seen a less than excellent experience at the store level.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
As far as UPS delivery, that's pretty standard to leave almost $1000 devices it on your doorstep. Google did the same thing with my Nexus phones. Two of them were just sitting there all day by the front door, with no signature required.

Since then, I've learned to sign up for a UPS.com account. That way I get email notifications of scheduled deliveries. I can re-route the UPS delivery to be held at nearby UPS store and I can then pick it up in person and sign for it. I don't do that with most eBay and Amazon stuff, but for new smartphones or tablets, yeah I now take that precaution.

You can also do the same with scheduled FedEx deliveries.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcsww:
UPS is a company I loathe! Not only did they try to charge me a special handling package fee after the fact for sending a shipment in a tote, but after writing the address out for the store clerk 3 times, he still entered it into the computer wrong and it shipped to the wrong address. Complaining to the store location did sqat but the extra charge I had to fight. UPS wasn't willing to reverse it until I told the woman on the phone that my mother-in-law (not yet) is the bank manager and all I have to do is call her, dispute the charge, and it will be reversed, so to take her pick on how this is going to get resolved. She ended up reversing the charge! I also explained to her that if UPS didn't kick packages around, then I wouldn't feel the need to use a tote instead of a box! :P

The sad part is though... All of the courier companies are just as bad as each other in one way or another.

Hi all,

I am new to the world of flash experiments. So, this is my my ambitious goal. I am trying to get maximum battery life and experience out of my old Nexus 5. So, I flashed Paranoid Android 7.3.

Now, is it possible to change the kernel to ElementalX? Could not find a lot of literature on this combo, especially for Nexus 5. If ElementalX doesn't work with PA 7.3, what other kernel would you recommend ?

I was able to install EX with stock ROM. But when I tried doing the same with PA, the phone wouldn't go past the Google logo.

What am I missing here ?

Your expert replies are appreciated, as it would enable me and a lot of Nexus 5 fans out there to bring their favorite phone back to active use again.

Thanks in advance ! :)

What is everyone using?

My old side spring grip style one isn't going to work. I love the thing but it either presses on the volume buttons or activates Assistant. Have any of you found one that works without these issues?

I'm considering one of the magnetic ones but I don't like the idea of having to add a piece of metal to the back of my case.

Any success stories?
[Google Pixel 2 Accessories] Izeltokatl:
I've been using this one since my pixel 1. Love it, the build is ridiculously solid, I'll probably never need to buy a mount ever again. It's only a few solid aluminum pieces. The metal plates you put on your case are very thin. The magnetic pull doesn't start until it literally gets to the plate. The plate doesn't look bad. But that's the only draw back I think. I'm happy with it though. Good luck!

I mounted mine on my window, my wife has hers on the dashboard. It's been about a year and is lasting very well. The mount shows no wear and tear.

I'm waiting for my Pixel 2 to arrive, but I use a Spigen Magnetic Mount for my air vent currently. They offer a windshield/dash mount also. It holds very tight, but not too tight. No issue with the phone falling and/or rotating during driving.

I'm wondering if any of the Spigen cases will work without the need to put the metal plate inside. I currently have the metal plate inside the back cover of my Galaxy S5, but I can tell there is a bulge where it is placed.

Can't tell you how disappointed when I popped my new phone into the dash mount only to watch the volume drop on it's own. The volume rocker placement on the Pixel 2 leaves a lot to be desired.

I use the Tetrax, both the Fix and Xway. Most of the time I use the Fix, because I like having my air vents actually blowing air on ME, but in the summer, on a long drive, using the GPS and charging the device, it can sometimes get warm. I just take it off the Fix, and move it to the air vent to let the air conditioner cool it down. I've used this system for nearly a decade, not sure if the Pixel 2 will get warm enough to need the air vent.

The only thing you need to put on the phone is a small metal button. The package comes with several sizes. I adhere this to my Spigen Thin Fit case, so it doesn't have to be attached to the actual phone.

I order 6 extra plates to go with each unit. It already comes with several extras. I have only used one plate so far because a allot of places I will use it are metal surfaces.

I put the thin disc on the back of my phone and put my case back on. Nothing to see until I actually use it.
