You can occur the additional fee and update the firmware in E05.
I believe that is just the internet use fee we dont have to worry about cause we pay 10 dollars for unlimited

Do u use tethering a lot? I hardly use tethering and try to use wifi whenever I can but I still usually wind up with about 2gb of data each month. I figure if I didnt use wifi I would be up to about 5-6

Just don't change your plan... It is regulated that they have to Grandfather plans that will in turn be less of a service to the customers. If you don't change your plan, they can't change your data.

@SysAdmin-x. I stream lots of videos and radio when I'm out of the house so I can't use wifi. I use tether sometimes. Also I should be using wifi when I'm at home but I always forget about it lol.

You never get overage charges from Verizon? I have heard that over 5GB that they start throttling back, and supposedly would charge people.
Sys... Never been charged extra... If I ever do ill raise cain because I bought an UNLIMITED plan, they do throttle which was noticeable on stock, but the apex untether patch really does seem to work quite well.

I've never been charged extra either. But they do throttle you but I've accually never noticed it.

I've never been charged for overage either. I've had my data plan for a few years now so I guess I'm grandfathered in. I have noticed ever since iPhone 4 came out on Verizon the 3g has been awfully slow. I used to get under 100ms ping with about 2 megabit download speeds. Now the pings are over 500 Ms and speeds arent even hitting 1megabit. Pretty unacceptable considering how much we pay for these devices and data plans. They need to get their **** together.

9.6 gb here. No overcharge and no throttle
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Just did a 3g speed test and it's getting better. I use the speedtest.net app. Ping - 379 Ms down - 1.31 mbps up - .35 mbps. So it's better but still nowhere near the 3g speeds we pay for. I'm in Montana on Verizon. I think they throttled everyone up here so their network would handle the new load from the iPhone 4.

I know that a data plan is required to use a smart phone with Verizon. Can someone tell me if I can use the $10/75MB plan if I went out and bought the xperia Play? The reason being, I am only 16 and really don't need an expensive data plan. I would just turn off the mobile connect and use WiFi for my Internet needs. So is the 10$ plan an option? If not, what's the cheapest plan I can get? I am an emulator junkie and I would love to only carry one device with me. Yet I don't have a job so a $30 dollar plan is a no-no

Looks like it will be $30 for 2 GB's. At least according to Cnet. That's the minimum for smart phones.

the only problem is the 2 gig cap. a friend of mine just got his first android on vzw and signed up for a 2 gig data plan. first month used 8 gigs just enjoying his new gingerbready goodness. they waived the overages that month, but when he did it again the second month, he got hit with 60 dollars in overages. 10 bucks per gig after 2. he is now at the point he is thinking about selling his droid3 and going back to his envy touch or whatever because he cant deal with the caps.
You need to get a different driver for the radio.
When I had the epic I had the same problem.
After flashing so many radios the driver from the last update on froyo...only one worked for me.
Also the one from the first gingerbread leak also worked.I forgot the version as it was a while back.

For sure!! I went and priced them out for a family plan yesterday. I don't need to spend 70 bucks more a month to be limited to 4gigs and no free mobile to any mobile.. 145 with sprint over 210+ fees with big red.. :-(

Just saw this. To those who are still on a non-shared data plan you can now use tethering apps as VZ was fines 1.25 million for blocking these apps from our phones last year.

Suck it VZ!!
And while your doing that, release the fixed and fully working 2.3.4 for our freakin' phones............sigh
Good, other then their good cell service they've become another huge corporate company that pisses on their customers.

If you're not on the family share data plan, and instead on their old 2GB plan, you can tether without incurring a tethering charge. You will, however, still incur the overage charges if you go over your 2GB.
I think this will be useful at airports . 3G for my laptop is a go instead of paying a high amount of money to access the internet. LOL Unlimited Data to the rescue!
It's here go get it .

So I have been following this all day in the SGS3 forums (see here) and the servers got hit so bad that many users were without data AND calling for up to 5hours. Obviously this is a big deal and tons of people are switching but just be patient. My wife is going to the store (you can do it on-line too) tomorrow to set it up for us. I'll post updates if we hit any roadblocks.
Edit:: Ok so my wife went to do this today and she said it was like a mob scene. Said that there were people everywhere and the employees were cooking out promoting this whole thing. Took her about an hour to get through the line and get everything switched over. I got a text at work about a hour ago and it said that our plan changed. I check and it is unlimited and no interuption in service either.
Woody like, hehe!!!
Oh and they say that the HotSpot doesn't work, but it does. I checked. You can also go to the market and get Foxfi if you don't have the HS already.
I just switched over to the new plan and cut my Bill . I was paying $5 more for 5GB . No more throttle .
