[Q] Well Sprint is giving me the boot!

Sprint notified me via letter today that I would no longer have service after the 5th of July. I moved out of Sprint's service area around September of last year and knew this was coming eventually. I am actually shocked it took so long .
As sad as I am to leave Sprint and my Evo; I must move forward!
That being said, what phones are on the horizon? I will probably switch to Verizon because they still have unlimited data. I'm not adverse to prepaid as those services have come a long way in the last few years.
I am liking the Thunderbolt, as it is the most similar to our Evos.

cool story bro...
joking aside, sorry to see you leave. gl with whatever you choose to go with

you can make your evo work on cricket wireless or metropcs wireless if either are available in your area. Check into it.

Nope and nope, bummer really. Not a lot of choices here in Arkansas, especially in a smaller town. I remember when it was just Alltel and $0.25 a minute lol.
When are dual core phones going to explode? There doesn't seem to be many on the market. I want something with some serious XDA support of course. There is no way I could run a stock Android phone anymore .

You could use it on virgin mobile, but they're a sprint mvno & you'd be using the latest sprint prl. And if sprint service didn't work for you before, guess it won't now.

can u ever become a sprint customer again? and does ur phone get a bad esn?

Your ESN is only bad if it is report lost/stolen, or you did not pay your bill.

ok... and when can u become a sprint customer again?

Of all the new phones coming out, I'm just wondering why you would go with the thunderbolt?

Wow... $250?.. really? nearly mint EVO's in my area are going for $150. something like that would be asking for a trade of a blackberry or HTC Magic. lol
ok, not to get off topic, but in other areas are people on craigslist asking for iPhone 3GS or 4's for "every better phone ever"?
it seems like whenever I go on, I see someone going "I'll trade my stupid, dumb EVO 4G for an iPhone 3GS"
and I'm dumbfounded and almost willing to trade in my iphone that has sat here for a YEAR in for another EVO...because I love this phone so much. lol

Harsh guys. You would notice if you read the whole thing it says OBO. I don't expect to get that much, I just had to put a price in. Thanks for taking to time to search Craigslist for the listing though!
Just got off the phone with Sprint and it turns out they are only canceling the line that has the most roaming usage on it which isn't my Evo (we have three lines)
You're busting my balls sprint!

I haven't really heard of any dual core on Verizon except for the droid bionic which probably will have a locked bootloader so it might get rooted or might not. At&t should have Galaxy S2 by then or the HTC Sensation on T Mobile hoping that its shipped with a unlocked bootloader.

New phone suggestions

Hey dudes. Well, getting the itch for something new. After having my Epic 4g for over a year (and the fact I'm a phone whore) thinking of switching from crapola Sprint to Verizon. Network has been crappy to say the least in the last months. I've tried a multitude of roms, themes, but can't seem to shake it. Be that as it may, anybody in the same boat?
Any suggestions on what to get? I've been seeing the Prime talk and all, but who knows how long that will be before it comes out. I was looking at the Bionic, being that I can't upgrade to the Epic Touch, and again the crappy Sprint network. Any other suggestions?
Sorry to be leaving you all in a few weeks, it's been a nice run

Really? recommend AT&T?!?! I've been begging work to ditch their contract with AT&T and move to verizon so I could actually use the phone they provide me.
Just got the woman setup with the Droid 3 on VZW. It's nice and fast, but the custom rom scene is nonexistant yet.. The stratosphere should be out this weekend (so you don't miss yer epic too much lol) and i've heard a couple other phones are headed to VZW soon worth lookin into as well.

I'm just gonna pony up 120 bucks and pay the cancellation fee...tired of my friends and family saying that I'm breaking in and out of reception.
I'm thinking the Bionic right now. Was thinking the Droid 3, but after looking at both, I like the size of the Bionic. I looked at reviews on the Stratosphere, but it's not looking to "Next Gen" Best Buy told me that they would match the price of one I saw on Amazon Wireless at 130, so I can't wait for payday

Considering that we most likely won't be seeing any other keyboard phones for a year (sprint already has 3 with this one having best specs). There might not be much choice.

Why is it funny? it is always cheaper through a retailer then directly. You can get it for 1 penny on amazon. The only downside ordering it through a 3rd party is if you cancel after 30 days but before 180 days you pay 200$+ extra to cancel.

a no go for the following reason:

2) non-removable battery is only 1785 mAh
3) only 1GB RAM
So, unless these specs are wrong.... not worth it, IMO

#1 Not true, it has been confirmed that the Photon Q 4GLTE will be Motorola's first unlockable bootloader.
http://www.motorola.com/blog/2012/07/26/unlock-the-bootloader-on-motorola-photon-q-4g-lte/
That said, I still won't buy it, most likely.

Sprint posted a deal on the Motorola Photon Q. If you pre-order and add a line you get a $100 amex gift card so may be worth it if your on a family plan.

Thanks, that was always a concern when it came to Motorola, at least IMO
Still, considering you can get an Epic for $100 off contract and run CM10 on it, and a SGS3 for $150 via Amazon/Best Buy, I am kinda unwilling to risk jumping on board another phone with slim development prospects, until I hear otherwise. Perhaps if CM accepts the device...

Is the lte sim card user accessible? If so, you can probably use gsm from there, just like on some verizon droids not advertising gsm capability.

Doesn't it have a locked GSM slot? I remember hearing something about Verizon version being hacked to use GSM in europe. I doubt sprint version is any different, but your gonna have to research it.

This isn't true. LG has a keyboard phone in the pipeline called the Cayenne.
The Photon is a no-go for me due to embedded battery. As it is I need to use an extended battery with the Epic and always carry a spare for backup.
When batteries were always replaceable I considered physical keyboard my deal breaker. Now replaceable battery is my deal breaker. I'd like a keyboard too, but if I *HAD* to choose between keyboard and replaceable battery I'd go with the replaceable battery. Keyboard does me no good if the phone is dead...

HTC One Not Coming for Verizon??!!

WTF is wrong with Verizon... GS2, Nokia920 and Now HTC ONE... Even with NOTE 2, Verizon has managed to take away some of its best features.
Now all I can get is the GS4. I really wanted HTC ONE Badly...

It sucks for VZW customers but also sucks for HTC. The DNA's not selling well on VZW and once the SGS4's released won't sell at all. VZW has almost as many subscribers as all of Japan and HTC getting them and the other three U.S. carriers to sell the One under its own name would have been a huge win. VZW not carrying it means HTC lost a little under half the U.S. as a sales opportunity for the One and the DNA's not strong enough against the SGS4 to move the sales needle for them. It's a shame. When asked about devices with larger than 5" displays on an analyst's call in February HTC's CFO said "yes, in the coming months." So maybe there will be a "Droid" by HTC phablet on VZW in the future.

The only thing keeping me on VZW is there coverage. If it wasn't for that I'd be gone.

Verizon is a carrier that wants to have their way with a device. If they can't put their carrier branding all over it and make a weird commercial they don't want it.
CDMA carriers always miss out/ late getting phones. It's best to be on GSM if you like to change phones

Looking for sound advice

Hey all. I'm coming to T Mobile within the next month (I've been on sprint for like 10 yrs). I've owned A LOT of android devices, including the galaxy nexus. Basically I'm torn here: I love stock android because it's the best and because development on it is incredible. I am tempted however by the note 3. I imagine dev support will also be strong for the note 3 and I just don't know which way to go. If I got one or two questions answered about the nexus 4 tho, it might help. That's where you all come in.
First and foremost, and I may be totally misunderstanding this but, is it true that this device has no lte? Or has that been remedied somehow? If it doesn't have lte, how is the data speed it DOES get? Secondly, and I suppose more generally, what do you think--if you were in my shoes--would you stick with the nexus, or jump to the note 3?
Thanks in advance, really appreciate it!

Okay... Here's my two cents... I have an lte nexus from vzw... it is the best android I've ever had..... The g3 has lte with vzw and I would think the same with sprint or T-Mobile because their towers are sometimes shared... however.... Any unlimited data is where it's at... And I am grandfathered into ud from Verizon.. So I may be a bad reference on this... but the g3 should be sweet for ya

T-mobile USA, you can achieve LTE by simply flashing an older radio. I would say battery life is enough but not the best, you will need to tweak it a bit with custom kernels etc. With my current tweaks, my battery lasts me about 2 days light usage. With medium - high usage, will last about a day.
I would choose N4 and use leftover money on accessories.

As I am sure you have seen by just skimming through the forum, LTE is capable on our phone since there are roms out there LTE based. The phone is relatively inexpensive at this time. Also whether LTE or 4G depending on your area speeds are great either way. KitKat is on its way and the use of Google Wallet is what will keep me using stock Google or at least the fact there are quite a few rom choices.

It's cool to hear everyone so far have the same opinion. I think I'm leaning towards the nexus. When I was on sprint and the nexus 4 came out I was SO pissed that only t mobile got it. Now, this is like poetic justice that I'm able to finally have it...lol.
Just curious, I may get the same device for my wife--she's not into the whole rooting and running custom rom game tho, so for her sake, is the data fast enough?

As I am sure you have seen by just skimming through the forum, LTE is capable on our phone since there are roms out there LTE based. The phone is relatively inexpensive at this time. Also whether LTE or 4G depending on your area speeds are great either way. KitKat is on its way and the use of Google Wallet is what will keep me using stock Google or at least the fact there are quite a few rom choices.

Having you two guys' opinion REALLY means a lot. I believe I've ran mods/roms made by at least one of you, if not both. Thanks again.

Yeah, I'm gonna go with the monthly installment of like $14 for the nexus. I'm kinda hoping that if I get it and the 5 comes out in the next 30 days, they'll let me exchange it.
