Small Sprint Discount

If any of you fellas wanna get on the employee referral program shoot me a message with your email, ill send you the link later today. I can only go up to 30people so first come first serve. Doesnt work for the simply everything plan. Just my token of appreciation to the hard workers around here. Ill reserve a few spots for the makers of fresh as that is the rom I use.
*EDIT* CLOSED!! Limit has been reached. Sorry guys no more can be accepted!
I think i've answered everyone's questions, if I didn't, shoot me another PM. Again you can expect your e-mails sometime today hopefully if it's not extremely busy you should receive them by 6-7pm est time - if it's busy just wait a little longer, but they will come today.
The discounts include more minutes and it's roughly $10.00 off additional more individual plans and $20.00 for family plans.
*EDIT* http://a676.g.akamaitech.net/f/676/773/12h/images.delivery.net/cm50content/sprint/eprp/EPRP.html <--- That's the link to what the program includes. Please read the bottom as there are qualifications that must be met

your the man

PM sent thanks

Ditto on the PM. This is the kind of stuff that totally erases all the other nonsense that goes on around here sometimes, and what makes xda such a great place. Thanks Shroomz!

Yes indeed Some unity again

That's a real **** move, DirtyShroomz. You should really keep this to friends and family. If the program was meant for everybody it would be the regular deal every customer gets.
Guys, you've just netted him a bunch of cash. He gets money for every referral.
Perhaps I should show this thread to Jose, DirtyShroomz?

yea but if it saves someone money on their bill than what gives lol the people wouldnt of gotten the discount without him so even if he is making money so are the people that get the discount...how is that a **** move?

Jeez, who cares if he gets a referral commision? That was a really nice thing to offer! I am more sad for him to hear he doesn't have 30 friends or family members!
Perhaps you should clean Jose's dirty brown stuff off your nose!

thousands of people use and abuse the Employee Referral program this is nothing new "feld" -- just do a quick google search, enjoy reporting all those people.
I for one am already on the employee referral program, and no i dont know anyone that works for sprint. i previously heard about it (years ago) and simply walked into a sprint store, talked to a nice dude and asked him his email/pin and signed up as soon as i got home. he had no issues with it. he didnt even really know what it was. but props to him if he got a bonus for it.

BTW feld i remember when i had 10 posts

I wish this covered the Simply Everything

Sent a PM. Whether you have enough invites to cover me or not, thank you.
This is a great gesture and a really awesome way to keep the community happy.

How is that a **** move? First of, I actually DONT get any referral money and secondly we have another program called the ADVANTAGE CLUB for FRIENDS AND FAMILY not the referral program where discounts and plans start Everything Data 550 not 440 for $20.00 a month, no deposits, no credit checks, no contracts. Idiot. What has this world gotten to when a simple nice gesture becomes a friggin competition and open grounds for insults?

As for you, when you work at Sprint and log into your system there is a link this the referral program, then at the bottom it says "Click here to print these as business cards! Hand them out to friends or people you meet!" ... Yeah, abused when Sprint themselves encourages you to give them to strangers...

Is this the Everything Plus Referral Plan? I'm on it now (signed up using Russ McGuire, VP of Strategy's well-known and publicly-disclosed info), but I'm not sure its actually worth it. I'm saving a few bucks a month, but the downside is that I'm now right below the monthly payment amount to qualify for Sprint Premier status. If you factor in regular handset upgrade costs, I think I'm coming out behind.

That's exactly my problem. The EPRP plan is right below where I need to be for Premier. I have TEP, which would put me over the threshold, but only the plan price counts. I have suspicion that they planned it that way.

It depends on the plan you receive. It's $69.99 for individual and $99.99 for family to qualify. So yes, there are some that will put you under the threshold to qualify for premier status, but if you've been with us for 10+ years you're always going to be premier... Yea I know, that's a long time

$100 business port credit works!!

well, I got hooked up with a sprint business rep and I got:
$100 Port Credit
Free month service
No activation fee
10% recurring discount
I am pretty stoked, although I won't get my evo til monday, but that is a small price to pay for the deal I got.
if anyone is interested, PM me and i'll give the guys name to you.
I don't wanna get anyone in trouble for posting names here.....
I also posted this on android forums....

I did a quick search and it seems like this is only for B2B (business 2 business) users. Is it if you switch from one carrier to Sprint as a business customer?

yes, you need to start a business account.

[REQ] Your support in helping Get a MT4G for Sykopompos cm7 Dev TEAM [Closed]

Well some of our developers are too modest and wish not to receive donations for phones etc. But I know the developers of cm7alpha Team, gridlock32404 are building for many different devices and putting out more builds than anyone can expect and making good progress. Now I know that gridlock32404 has already turned down one offer for a MT4G, and I thought I was going to have a extra one but that did not work out either. He is a very modest an humble developer and did not even want to except one from me for free. He wanted to give me another device in return which I would not have taken anyway.
He really likes the MT4G and would love to use it as his development device. But he has said he can get other developers to do the work on the MT4G stuff that he can't do. Well I say we just get him one and let him do all the work and testing on his own device.
I will contribute a big chunk of the first part with $150.00.
Here is gridlock32404 Donation Link

Thanks to all who Donated. It seems Sykopompos has fell on some hard times and is going to sell his MT4G instead of the tablet he got right after getting his MT4G. I can see why as the MT4G will bring the most money. I feel a little awkward about this and I will keep my own feelings about this to myself.
I will tell you I will never do this ever again, not for anyone. I just don't like the feeling of where this ended up.
In the end I wish Sykopompos the best and I hope he finds a job and everything works out for him.

Just send the donations to him. He has a link.
Also, anything you guys send to me since this all started, I have sent to him, just FYI. That will continue until he stops working on the mt4g.
You can keep sending them this way, and I'll make sure they go to him, but it would just be easier to send them straight to him.

put me in for $50 i get paid on the 15th so let me know when you need the donations after that day
EDIT: ok will do lol

Put me down for $50 also, will be getting that to him Friday

The thing is that I am going to buy my upgraded phone at the end of this month when my adsense money cashes in. So until then im hoping that somebody whos scared to root their phone will buy or offer me £120ish so that my patience will pay off. Whats the point of getting £100 now when Im going to have to wait till the end of the month anyway. I might aswell take my chances and lower my prices later on.

Tips on selling this faster without reducing price (i aim to sell at £120ish)

Seriously nobody can offer any tips ???

[BOUNTY] HTC One M9 AOSP/CM12.1 Camera - $1150 as of 10/23 - ACHIEVED

Selfishly, I cant deal with any more complaints about the AOSP camera not working for the M9 or stupid posts cluttering the Cyanognemod 12.1 dev thread. So...Ive decided to start a bounty thread for development of a functional camera for our beloved M9 for AOSP/CM12.1 ROMS.
I am looking for all features functioning as they do with stock sense, including:
The ability to take and save pictures with rear and front facing cameras
The ability to take and save videos with rear and front facing cameras
The ability to also port and use the Sense camera with this driver hack on AOSP ROMs
Post your pledges in this thread and ill add to this post with your XDA user name and your pledge. If and when the AOSP camera is fixed, the bounty will go to the dev that fixes it. Pledges are made in USD and should be sent by Paypal or other means accepted by the dev.
If you pledge and don't pay, an android goblin will sneak into your home while you sleep and brick your M9 and you will be banned from XDA for all eternity.
Pledges

Off topic, If there is such a pledge problem as people backing out, why is the pledge not taken by a neutral middle man(approved moderator etc) before any fix is released, if the fix does not work, the list is still there to return exact amount back to the pledging parties.
