Mobitv sucks a**

I'm currently trying to cancel my subscription and it just stays at the cancel subscription loading page stuck smfh I hate this app

It was easier for me to call tmo and get them to cancel it. What a piece of [email protected]#% app. Media hub would nice but its pricey.

I agree.. Thanks for letting me know tmobile won't give me **** to cancel good to know I'll call them tomorrow

I just had to cancel mobitv as well on my wifes line. She didn't use it, just mistakenly opened the app and it signed her up. I didn't even know until I called tmobile to switch out of my blackberry plan.
The rep was kind enough to go through our plans, told me he saw that service (and some subscription for a pool game from years ago), and canceled both without a problem.

You said it man! I dropped mine before the end of the trial. Its like they sat down with the sole purpose of compiling a list of the most suck t.v. and putting into an "easy to use" app. I guess if you wrap garbage up in a fancy enough package we will all give it a try.

Yeah I know. It sucks. But unless you have better luck finding a way to reset blur than I did, I am afraid that is what it is.
I am amazed that someone sold a phone and didn't reset it theirselves. And you probly don't want their crap on your phone anyway. Not to mention, a nice reset will give you that new out of the box experience. So unless you are concerned about keeping the contents of the old user, (sayWHAT?!?) don't sweat it. Takes maybe 5 minutes tops for the reset. And you are in business.

cant u just flash the SBF ?

Go into recovery and I have the option to factory reset from there

Call me whatever you want, but are we sure this is a purchased phone and not a stolen phone?
Maybe I don't trust people, or whatever, but I just don't see someone selling an atrix, without at least performing a wipe.
For the record, I am not saying the op stole it, just saying it could be.

not saying it is either way, but the original owner could have wiped, booted up the phone and logged in with their motoblur account to check, and then handed off the phone.

I kept telling the stupid lady that my brother had same.phone on 2gb for 25 and she said I was incorrect no matter how much I told her. She said 4g absolutely requires and that it was the only one availible. And I told her on the site I saw it and she said I was misinformed. And went ahead and added the stupid package

Call back and talk to someone else.

She asked two people I kept teling her. I just went to my manage features and switched to 2gb 25 plan

Sprint verifying discounts!

Well after probably 3 years of getting a 23% discount from my previous employer sprint is now asking for employment verification. So the one thing that was keeping on sprint will now be lost on Sept 26th. Looks like it's time to make the switch to Verizon. Anyone else get the message asking for verification or is it just something they do after x amount of time?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda app-developers app

Not yet. Been on employment discount for about 1.5 years...
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

I have been getting it for about 3 years and no questions yet

I got a message on the website that I assume is about that but it was very cryptic.
Your Sprint service discount requires proof of eligibility, which you may be asked to provide to continue participation in the program.

I assume it is talking about the employee discount. Where did you see a date mentioned?

I got a text message telling me to go to www.sprint.com/verify. On that site lists the date.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda app-developers app

This is something that they do randomly. They have always done it in one fashion or other. I had to do it a couple years ago, and they just called me.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

I got the text yesterday, and gave them my e-mail, but I still have yet to receive that e-mail on my work address.

Yeah, for the first 10yrs i had sprint, I was on a retail employee plan ($15 a month) even though i hadn't always worked in retail. they called me twice in that 10yrs asking about if i was still working for xxxx and that there were "better" plan options now etc. With t-mobile going back to truly unlimited data, i may be switching....

I got it too yesterday and have had the discount 2 years (didn't know about it earlier as I had a military discount until then).

On another forum, a Sprint CSR is advising you only need to re-verify when you *upgrade your phone.*
Sprint inadvertently sent out the text to everyone. I just got another text today:
"We unintentionally sent you an SMS message yesterday regarding your Sprint discount. Please disregard. No action is needed."

Got another text today indicating yesterday's text was an error and no further action was needed.

I didn't get the second text. I'm glad to hear that though. I was worried I'd actually have to verify it!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda app-developers app

I got one as well. A message when I login to Sprint and then I got a text a few days ago. However I am legit so I can verify my discount :laugh:

So like... you're complaining and want to switch carriers because for three years you've been getting a discount for a company you haven't even still been employed with, and Sprint wants verification rather than just letting you continue to get a discount that hasn't applied in years for you?
Go to Verizon. You deserve to pay more.

That's the thing if I wasn't getting this discount by the time I applied my current employers discount for Verizon I'd be paying less just not unlimited data, which is fine for me because I'm on wifi 70% of the time anyway.

Regardless, you are essentially stealing from Sprint... and whether they know that or not, their profits are hurt by it. I can guarantee that you're not the only one, so while your impact alone may not be much, every thief adds up. Losses like that are always passed on to the customer, so you are slowly but surely hurting the rest of us. Thanks, buddy

There are discounts that everyone can get legitimately. No stealing required. I have had a 25% discount, and it's available to anyone willing to go through a few hoops.

I may retire the Supersonic today...

For an HTC One V with Cricket (yes, because of budget issues). I still plan on keeping the EVO, and will even donate it to developers of needed. But my question is, besides the One V, what other HTC no-contract phones do you think I would enjoy after all my time with the supersonic? Something I can modify with OC and UV and sound mods. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated and again, hit me up if a dev needs a perfectly working EVO! Thanks.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda app-developers app

You'd be better off getting a samsung device, less hassle to root and more development due to the easier rooting. Plus all the samsung devices are selling way more than htc now. Lots of ppl have come from the evolte to the sgs3 or note 2 from terrible reception and lte > 3g/wifi handoff issues where the data just drops out til a reboot.
I like to break stuff!

The cricket service on the 3vo is way better than sprint. My of evo gets 1.5 on 3g and the 3vo usually gat about 2.2 on 3g. Yes rooting is a pain but has gotten easier with a bootable CD ROM. Plus for around 100 for a used one with bad ESN how can you go wrong.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda app-developers app

Good advice, I appreciate it. I ended up just flashing the EVO, but immediately afterwards I changed my number on their website and dialed *228 and let my phone reboot, now 3g internet doesn't work at all. Talk and text are fine.

I hope you flashed it yourself. When ever you change your number you have to open qpst and change it in there also to get you data to work. Now before you change anything you will want to make sure you read from the phone and then save that information on the pc. I normally call it whatever the old phone number was. Then you want to make sure you write down the IMSI_S number. It is in the cdma tab. Now go through the tabs and change all the old numbers to the new one. Then go back to the cdma tab and make sure the IMSI_S number is correct and then save that profile. Now write to your phone and once it reboots you will have data again.

I got a one v for my gf. its decent. screen is a little small and dont like the sealed battery. sound is good because of the beats audio. as far as rooting, not sure. she wont let me touch it

And no, I paid forty bucks to cricket to flash. And when I tried to go to a closer one to reflash they said I had to pay 20 bucks or go to the store I initially flashed at. How lame is that?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda app-developers app

Sure you can hit me up here or my email which would be a little quicker to get any extra help you need. I have flashed two evo's and a 3vo myself and helped out on many more. Plus my last girlfriend liked to change her number every few months so fixing that will be a snap.
Email address coming via pm in a few moments.

If you want to, you can keep using your EVO on Ting (a Sprint MVNO). Ting allows you to BYOD and I've brought two EVOs over without any problems. No overage penalties and refunds for what you don't use.
If you don't use tons of data (or are always within range of wifi), it can be very cheap. If you stream movies all day, it'll cost you an arm and a leg, though.
Think of it as the open-source carrier.

I actually was just on Ting, haha, they're good service but too expensive, I like unlimited data.
Yeah so reflashing with cricket to regain 3g and mms is a no go right now, cricket wants to charge me and I can't do that right now. I'll be sure to shoot you an email in my attempts to get my phone working again.

[Q] Lookout Security Premium on Tmobile

I just bought the G2 from tmobile the other day and went through the phone and after a while a notification for lookout said it was done with its 25 free scans so i clicked on it. The app ask me for my email and info so I did. Then I noticed that I got Lookout Premium. Did I get charged for this? I just paid for the phone in full btw no insurance or anything, also not part of the jump plan.
