I couldn't agree more! I'm so glad that I overpaid for unlimited back when I didn't use much data. Still, $90/mo for two lines of unlimited data and unlimited messaging is a lot, so glad that AT&T announced unlimited mobile to mobile so I can drop my minutes!

I'm never leaving AT&T until another carrier gets real unlimited data. Good things cell execs underestimated how much data we can use!
[Atrix 4G General] DumIam:
I've been grandfathered in on the unlimited plan for quite some time now. When I got my Captivate last July, the sales rep tried to convince me I HAD to change my data plan to the new pricing scheme. Thankfully, it ain't happen. :)
[Atrix 4G General] Squeak22:
Even if you went somewhere else, almost all the operators are moving to this type of plan.

2Gigs of data is quite alot, unless you are using it for your main internet connection for your house. I've been on the 2Gig plan for about a year now, and I rarely go above 600-700 meg with lots of audio streaming (sirius/xm, pandora) and Uverse TV to go, and some tethering from time to time.

i was ready to pay ETF and get the F out of ATT after i saw the original leaked memo
[Atrix 4G General] lsxrx7:
t-mobile & verizon throttles you, you can get around it on t mobile

sprint is still unlimited

2GB is not alot, how you use it is your problem, while the rest of us that has the unlimited, pay *more* ($30 vs $25) and being loyal to ATT, we want to get what we are ENTITLED to
[Atrix 4G General] MXIIA:
Does "an unlimited plan" refer to a smart phone unlimited or any unlimited?

Because, I have a regular unlimited plan for $10 a month, and would like to keep it lol.
[Atrix 4G General] johnnydeathmatch:
Negative. Featurephone/dumbphone unlimited data doesn't transfer over to smartphones. The only way I could see to get around that is to buy a phone off contract and pop your SIM card in it. You'd probably have to hack the phone to have it report as something else, though, otherwise ATT would catch it.

[Atrix 4G General] Hachi_Roku:
I have 30 Unlimited Data/Messaging plan. I plan to get the Canadian Atrix from Bell.

This way I can keep the unlimited feature phone plan. I do this with my SGS and my Motorola Milestone on AT&T.

So, if you are worried about being pushed out of a grandfathered pricing that could be an option.
[Atrix 4G General] johnnydeathmatch:
That's good to know, I thought something like that might be possible, but having never tried it I wasn't sure.
[Atrix 4G General] sdlopez83:
Heard they are down throttling data. Can anyone confirm?
[Atrix 4G General] mcsinny99:
I can confirm that they throttle data, just had a conversation with them last week while exploring options for leaving at&t. The t-mo employee said her boyfriend actually used the mobile hotspot for his home internet and canceled qwest. Apparently it was hardly noticeable. I think she said it gets throttled at 5 gigs, but I don't remember.
[Atrix 4G General] johnnydeathmatch:
One of my good friends is on T-Mobile and he has told me a few times that after 5GB of data it throttles.
[Atrix 4G General] sdlopez83:
Not bad I dont think ill be using mmore than 5gb ill take it ATRIX is locked by moto and ATT so Ill take MOTO's CEO or spokespersons advice and go elsewhere. Ill Take a honeycomb Pyramid instead with qualcomm 2x and its HTC. Ill feel right at home.
[Atrix 4G General] dsjr2006:
How is pricing the laptop dock at $500 with the phone going to scare people off? You can't get it at all with other carriers so people will likely just buy the phone....
[Atrix 4G General] AllTheWay:
Ok the next thread I find asking if they can keep there unlimited data I am going to close. Stop creating new threads based on the same topic.
[Atrix 4G General] drock212:
If you buy an unlocked phone like the original HTC's before ATT gets ahold of them and changes them you will be able to use the "dumbphone" unlimited plan because the phone sku and IMEI is not registered on ATT network so they wont be able to tell that it is smartphone usage being performed. I did something similar I had purchased a European HTC Topaz which the ATT rep at the store was able to switch me from my PDA plan which was 30 bucks to a smartphone plan which was 20 bucks all cause the phone wasnt registered on the network.
[Atrix 4G General] tsekh501:
question:

Unlike LTE or WiMax, which are newer technology that is rather different from current 3G standards, the "4G" that T-mobile and AT&T currently offer is HSPA+, which technically... is 3.5 or 3.75G whatever you call it. Ok, I'm not here to talk about what 4G is or is not.

My point is, technically, you don't need a new sim to use HSPA+. I know that if you are currently on the unlimited data plan, whatever new contract you sign AT&T will try to force you onto the newer limited data plans one way or another. But what if you just get the phone w/o contract at full price? Do you still get to use HSPA+ with your old sim?
[Atrix 4G General] sdlopez83:
At the time it was relevent and up to the minute findings. This, if true would of caused a furor. Which where later corrected. By all means close this and delete this now. Its garbage

Hi Folks

Is it possible to view and control my phone on my pc?

thanks for any suggestions
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegamike:
It depends if your device is rooted. If it is then it's really easy using an app called 'Picme'. It's designed for allowing you to use your web-browser to screenshot your phone, but a (very good) side-effect of this is that you can control your phone by clicking and dragging your mouse in the browser as if it was your finger.

Otherwise the closest I've done is simulate Android on my computer, which isn't the same at all.

So last night I installed battery monitor and savaged kernal. I'm running miui. I thought I read somewhere that if u go into history once ur battery hits 100% and see negatives its actually not full. But I thought this kernal would fix that(maybe it just takes couple days). So ya i took a screen shot of my history from this morning when it hit 100%.

So by those stats its not actually full right? Or is bc there are also some positive numbers after.

Sorry I just charge my battery all night and can't unplugg it right when it gets too 100. Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
I would assume that the negative numbers means it is at 100% and begins to drain the battery

[Nook Color General] tke513:
I just rooted my Nook Color, and I'm having a strange issue. When I long press on some menus, I will receive the pop up box but the text will be missing.

For example - I open File Manager and long press on a file. The icons appear, but the words are blank. Once I touch the item i want, THEN the text will appear briefly (ie. Copy, Paste)

It's not just on File Manger though - which I've uninstalled/reinstalled.

Any ideas?

[Nook Color General] miemens:
This is a problem with the way that the B&N software is themed. The menus where this happens has text, it's just white on white making it in effect invisible. There's not a solution yet that I'm aware of, but in some apps you can hold your finger on the menu options which highlights them, making them legible.
[Nook Color General] tke513:

Thanks for the reply. I was about to start "unrooting" to see if i'd done something wrong. Other than that, this thing is great!

Why did AT&T, Samsung, MS decide to take away MMS from the windows phones??? MMS has been around forever. I have a Samsung Focus and it a pain to not have it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
A. What do Samsung and ATT have to do with it?

B. We have picture messaging, what's it matter? The high quality videos created by such a phone would take forever to send and completely waste your entire data plan.

C. If you're from a country where English is the primary language please do attempt to learn to type it as your posts will get more replies if they are presented in a more adult manner.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mKTank:
First of all, those videos are compressed before sending on other devices. Second of all, sending videos does not consume data. It falls under your texting plan.

Don't be an ass.
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
If it was taking up that much data then I'm sure they wouldn't let a messaging plan cover it. Also there's no real point in pic messaging if it's going to compress it down to something my old razor might have shot.

Just stating facts, I tried to present it in a nice manner but it's true. I would not say such a thing to a person from another country but you will gain more respect asking a question in a professional manner around here.
[Windows Phone 7 General] amtrakcn:
Wish they will add it later
[Windows Phone 7 General] mKTank:
Texting and MMS costs nothing to the carriers. They transmit the messages with the leftover keep alive packets. It literally does not cost a cent, yet they make a ton of money off of ripping us off. But pictures and videos are indeed larger than texts, which is why they always take a bit longer.
[EVO 4G General] kyhassen:
I am thinking of getting this phone but if heard some bad things about it. ive had non stop issues with phones since the HTC mogul. i had the HTC mogul replaced 9 times due to keyboard failures, then HTC touch they sent me and HATED it, then they sent me HTC touch pro and it was decent but had it replace 23 times due to keyboard issues even after the redesign of them. then i got the palm pre and after the 3rd replacement they gave me a HTC Hero which i love. but i dont like how slow it is tho but the style and sense system i really like..

so is getting the HTC evo a good idea?

so for being so long
[EVO 4G General] m4rk0358:
Seeing that this is an EVO forum I'd guess most people will say it's a great phone.

Why don't you tell us what you're looking for in a phone. There are a few really nice phones coming out in the upcoming months. Do you have to be on Sprint?
[EVO 4G General] davidc23:

[EVO 4G General] ducky1131:
I don't think you will have keyboard issues with an EVO......
[EVO 4G General] Maximiano:
What are you doing to your phones to have them replaced that many times? I have never heard of anyone having so many issues before.
[EVO 4G General] Dan330:
omg!

23 times... that is twice a month for a year!!!!

really?? IF true.. i would be a hell raiser in their store.. they would be scared to see me coming every other week!!!!

why would you want another HTC device?? you love punishment?

that said...

I love my EVO!! best phone out .. RIGHT NOW.

but... there are issues with a small portion of these phones..

and with your luck with htc..you will find all of them.. or they will find you!

normally i tell people to get th evo... but you... i hesitate.
[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:
with verizon i had 39 replacements in 2 years (i broke the front screen of one of those phones, everything else wasn't my fault) Since switching to sprint i had one replacement since june.

lol the 23 replacements were with in 6 month's. they were internal issues. i always use a case, screen protectors. i am very careful with these phones since there so damn expensive

im looking for something as close to the Hero as possible. ive heard alot of good about the Evo, but also alot of bad.

also thank you for very fast replies
[EVO 4G General] Maximiano:
I have never had to replace a phone -- I guess that's just me though. All I know is that if I ever had that much trouble with a phone maker, I would never again buy their product.

Edit: I have never had an issue with my Evo and I have done a lot of flashing. I have also switched 10 of my friends to an Evo and the only complaint has been battery life - which was easily handled with rooting.
[EVO 4G General] kyhassen:
i really enjoy the HTC phones and the things i can do with them. and with the android system im am very pleased. i just always get lemons. im not exactly on the lucky side lol. but i have had no issues with the HTC hero. only issue i screw up loading a new rom and it locked the phone up but i fixxed it.
[EVO 4G General] speedy0339:
I had a hero before my evo too. I loved that phone to death, but it was so damn slow. So when the evo came out I got it, and ive only had 1 replacement since july because the phone broke inside. Overall this phone is amazing. I dont have any problems with battery and the phone is super fast. Definitely get this phone!!!
[EVO 4G General] kyhassen:
thank you speedy.

@ Maximiano, i kno i keep going back to HTC but its the style of them i like. im bound to get a good one eventually and the hero has worked so far. as for the battery..... im use to it. the palm pre had a HORRID battery life. i was lucky to make it 4 hours out of the few i had.
[EVO 4G General] speedy0339:
Well I think the battery on the Evo is good. I unplug my phone at 6am every day and plug it in at 10pm every day. At 6pm im at 50% so this phone holds up durring the day. As for use:

30 mins of calling

50 txt

5 emails

20 mins of internet

Angry birds 20 mins

(Angry birds ****s on the battery)
[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
Honestly i say yes. The Evo feels good, its fast. Even stock sense isn't that bad. You have the option to root your phone, can stay on a sense rom, and with different kernels, you can make your phone perform faster. The Evo is all touch, so no keyboard to replace. :p
[EVO 4G General] kyhassen:
lol angry birds rules. its so slow on the hero. but by the sounds of it. seems like its about the same life as my hero.

i do:

50-200 txt messaging.

15 emails

2 hours of music/movies

15 min-30 min of talk time.

15min-1 hour of a game. (zenonia, angry bird, ect.)
[EVO 4G General] kyhassen:
@ teh roxxorz

lol im sick of keyboard replacing. i miss how fast i use to be with a pull out keyboard but i been doing well with a touch screen. and that swype ive seen seems interesting. but thank you for the tips
[EVO 4G General] _MetalHead_:
The EVO is an amazing device and you wont go wrong by getting it. The stock software is passable but we have an awesome development community here and a TON of great ROMs to choose from. That being said, im sure Sprint will be releasing its successor come summertime so if you can stand it, i would wait to see whats coming out. 22 months is a long time to wait for an upgrade so you'll be kicking yourself if you buy the EVO now only to have the EVO2 (or whatever it will be called) come out a few months into your new contract.
[EVO 4G General] kyhassen:
i kno of a few phones coming out later and 1 of them i guess has a duo core processor by the sounds of it. but i dont need nothin super fast. just something alot faster than the hero and the evo seems to be good. just was curious if it was a good idea. some of the replies here have helped me too. thank you all. i probably will be picking it up next week.

i been looking around at some of the roms and themes. so far ive come to really like the design of:

[02/06/2011] - MikFroYo v4.5

and the theme 'Slayer69's CYAN Dragon's

I would be remiss in my duties as an e-friend and EVO owner if I did not direct your attention to MIUI. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=915527
[EVO 4G General] detusueno:
You got to remember that you'll be owning it for at least a year. The EVO is already aging and will look old as dirt come summer time. The game/app devs will catch up to the dual cores and crazy GPUs; and you'll feel like you are stuck with a 4.3" hero.
[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
You're welcome. And yea, from what I hear [could be wrong] but the OTA on the evos comes with swype, so you can test it to your heart's content. Also you install some different keyboards if 1 doesn't work for you. The landscape wide keyboard is perfect for typing. But of course, you have to get over the "curve" :)
[EVO 4G General] kyhassen:
thank you for showing me that. i did look that and it looks great be reminds me too much of the iphonestyle or the samsung Epic 4g android style. which i didnt seem to like, great designs and all, just not to my liking lol. i like the sense style

@ detusueno

the second you buy anything now today its outdated. or on the road to being outdated with rumors or actually specs of stuff being released
[EVO 4G General] khov07:
OP: the EVO is a great phone, wouldn't trade mine for any other currently on the market. However, the next few months look promising, so I would hold onto that Hero and wait to see what's announced at MWC.
[EVO 4G General] kyhassen:
i enjoy the hero very much. but saddly i want something faster now lol. angry bird, zenonia 1 & 2. will work much better on the evo. PLUS a game i was addicted to on the palm pre. Crusade of Destiny. it will work on the evo. its not supported on the hero. and music will work better as its lagging on the hero once in a while
[EVO 4G General] Dan330:
hi had the hero too.. love it. Move to the EVO was.. crazy amazing!

if you have to do it now.. evo is the right choice.

for a rom.. Since you love Sense...take a look at Myn's Warm RLS5
[EVO 4G General] kyhassen:
thank you for the tip. i was checking that out. it looks really cool. im gonna toss between that and MikFroYo 4.5 and go from there. but i really think im gonna use slayer69 cyan dragon theme, that theme is AWESOME looking

only thing im sketchy about is the mods, addons. if i dont like some of them, do i have to erase the dalvik and system data again just to re flash the rom? or can i uninstall them.
[EVO 4G General] dmora01:
NO, wait for something with better quality, I understand 10 of 100 have some kind of defect but more than 50% is failure.
[EVO 4G General] Dan330:
things are flashed on to the phone.. are not uninstalled.

You can flash a new kernel .. on top of another kernel..
