I read that too... They started hitting everyone with $30 "upgrade fees" anytime you upgrade now too. Awful.
mmm guess im moving on when i upgrade
Would it be smart to buy a gnex now, save my upgrade on November to keep the unlimited plan?

Well, this will probably be my last year on verizon .... Unless I figure out a way to keep my unlimited plan. I wonder if I buy a new phone off ebay and do not upgrade through vz if they would drop my plan anyway?

I may have spoken too soon. We still need more details of the shared data plan. Being on as shared plan, there might not be a way around it.

I have acquired my last half dozen or so phones from Craigslist (even though I am eligible for an upgrade). I have not (yet) been charged for changing phones. I was able to get away from being 'throttled' this way when I got my Charge off CL for $125. Vzw even gave me a SIM card. I plan to continue this until they force me into some ridiculous fee/plan structure; at which time I will go to Sprint.
I hope ATT will get their LTE network up to par by the time my vzw's contract expires. Then it'll become an apple-to-apple comparison between the two of them, so, with no unlimited plan advantage, who cares anymore. I'll be jumping ship if I have to to get the coolest phone from whomever carries them.
Shammo? Jeez, even the guys name is "sham".

The problem with these guys though is that they have craptastic phones with like no dev community... otherwise I would jump right at them
Hmm i think the real reason they are doing the whole data share thing is because ICS can stop data usage once you hit a certain amount so it foolproofs overage charges... until when you don't have a personal data limit anymore but a shared data limit
My theory is that they are getting ready for the influx of new LTE users that the rumored LTE iPhone is going to bring, because that is going to bring a ton of new LTE traffic in a very short period of time.
Upgrade now or wait?
I have 3 upgrades coming in the next 2 months. I want to use one for galaxy S3. I got a smokin deal right now for Galaxy Nexus. Don't know if I should wait or take nexus?
The reason why Im asking is it is my understanding they are planning to force us to shared data at upgrade... right. Should I upgrade all 3 or take just the nexus or sit and wait? What do you guys think

CS and Store personal will tell you anything to sell you a phone, I wouldn't hold my breath. It will come in time though. Hopefully the hype of "4g" wasn't the only reason you bought the phone. If it was, you should return now.
i do live in a 4G area but spend most of the week out-of-town on work, sadly in non-4G areas. i'm struggling to decide if i really want the tbolt given that i will only have true LTE access on the weekends. sometimes i feel it would be better to wait until where i am working has 4G as well or i get assigned to 4G area projects. hmm....
You still get to take advantage of the simultaneous data + voice if that sort of thing interests you, I think..
Look at the bright side, you'll be grandfather in if they decide to change to tiered data, when it does finally come to your city.

I thought that too, but the "grandfathering" is only good for your contract term. Please read it when you have a chance. Two VZW managers confirmed this. Will they do it (cut off unlimited-who knows?), but they can if they want to.

Bunch of bull dude. Do you think or do you know? Don't believe everything you read. I been grandfathered on my unlimited talk $45 dollar plan for 8 years. My contract runs out, but nothing changes. When I grab a new phone the reb just starts up a new contract with my grandfathered one.
Also when you're contract runs out, and you don't do anything or upgrade you're phone your plan will continue the same way also. Here old screen shot of my plan I still have.
I have another friend that has a 10 unlimited data plan, and he's had it for 6 years.

The only time you lose a grandfathered plan is when you switch to something that is not the same ability in VZW system. IE: going to "Iphone data" stay on an android and you will have same plan as long as you don't change it.

Sent from my Ginger Tazz using XDA App
As a former Alltel/Verizon manager, I'd like to throw my two cents in. Per the letter of the contract, Verizon does have the ability to remove your unlimited data after the contract ends. With that being said, in my 6 years in the industry I have never seen it happen. We had customers on $20/mo unlimited minute plans who had originally signed on with GTE. As long as you don't initiate the change, you're fine.
The only exception (which I think was mentioned earlier), is moving to a different class of device. For example, a data plan for a feature phone won't map over to a new smartphon, etc...
Hope this helps!

where did you buy it from? I told all my customers in portland that 4g is only near the airport and is slowly expanding/being turned on. The vzw account/data manager I spoke with said you can get it 3 miles outside PDX and it is being turned on in other areas.
4g isnt even a buying point for me, I am not in an area and most likely wont get it for another 1-2 years, I will have had at least 4 new phones by then. I bought this bad boy for the potential in it. Its all great hardware and by far the best support from xda over any other company. If the G2 is putting down 100 mflops I cant wait to see what this can do once its all tuned up.

Here is a description in a nutshell: bit.ly/3QllHi
It's a way for anybody with bad credit to get a phone. A lot of my employees have it because they can't afford a security deposit with Verizon or any other large carrier.
Do they ride the bus? Do they call *every* Android device the "Google Phone" or "Droid"? Are they familiar with government assistance? Well sir you have yourself a Cricket customer.
Flashing a Thunderbolt over to Cricket is like parking your Maserati at a swap meet. What a waste.
That's like putting unleaded fuel in a Dodge Viper. She it looks at fancy but its gonna run like crap. Flash a US Cell phone or something. Not a 4G device! Waste!

Seriously if someone buys a Bolt retail without contract you're paying north of $600 on retail outlets like Amazon. So you get a Bolt from VZW for $150 (maybe even $99 when they run sales) plus you pay for a month of service + data and cancel ($175) and you're still around $400. That's a lot of wasted money to get a Bolt that's not going to be using LTE. This kind of kills the affordability of Cricket.
Have you seen Cricket's data coverage map? I think I can step in and out of it no matter where I am. One step to the left...coverage. One step to the right...no data.
Android plan on cricket is $55/mo too so you're not saving a ton of money per month for Crapit I mean Cricket.
Alright I'm off my Cricket soapbox but seriously nice work getting it working on their network.

VZW Cancellation fees are $350 for a phone, plus $150 for the phone, another $100 for a month of service. Making the total price 600+. Either way he was paying 600+.
But if you can pay $600+ for a phone, but can't afford a monthly plan from verizon, you are doing something wrong.

Yeah your plan wont change if you upgrade, if you have unlimited than you will always have it unless you tell them to change your plan. But once you have them change your plan, i.e Data from unlimited to a peak plan than you can never go back to unlimited unless you switch to sprint.
Hello, I just wanted to make a poll regarding the usage of the wifi hotspot with disabled entitlement check. I know people got threatened from AT&T for using this service with out their permission, and that they were going to lose the unlimited data plan privilege and be charged for the hotspot service. I don't have an unlimited data plan but I still want to know who got the "letter", whether you have unlimited data plan or not.

Thanks to everyone who cast their votes! I hope more votes keep coming. Although, so far I'm realizing that not many people got the "letter", just one person with unlimited data.

That's about how "professional" I plan on being if they try that crap with me. I've already left Verizon, leaving them a $1,700 dollar bill that I kindly gave my ex- wife in the divorce, and I'm certain I can come up with something equally painfully-in-the-ass for AT&T...

Verizon legally can't stop any users from tethering on their 4G LTE plans (it was included in their LTE spectrum acquisition), which is why they just had to pay off the FCC. AT&T however is allowed to do so.

Tethering had nothing to do with why I left them, that was all decided when my now ex-wife decided in two months that she'd rack up phone bills of over $700 bucks each. I gladly let her have that. But, so far AT&T has been rather good to me. I don't suspect they'll bust my goobers since I've been with them so long...

I was forced on a limited plan, last summer when I was on an iphone...
Well tmo has decided to go back to unlimited plans at 30$ a month been out for almost a week just letting you guys know. Only catch is they don't allow you to tether but lets be honest who keeps their phone stock... Still get to tether with my custom rom!!!

I know right... Got a personal call from a tmo rep. Wasn't happy about that but was happy that it was true and costs the same as what I was already paying
Was launched September 5th.
Do you think Simple Mobile will work the same? Without caps?

I doubt it since they are a spin off of tmo... Tmo still offers regular plans along with this one. Plus simple mobile is already cheap like cricket or h2o so the only way they could make money is off data which IMO is completely fair...

The question you should be asking is why do I have a smartphone and not use it to its full extent.... With my phone I can do everything that I can do on a computer its just that its mobile and easier to do stuff on the fly. Tons of internet use and downloading sensations horribly huge roms.... Other phones rooms are usually Max 200mb with gapps not complaining but lots of internet use...
Yeah, maybe its since I use my home Wifi.

Yeah most likely why. I stay off wifi even though I have access to it most of the time just cause tmo data is usually faster lol, plus Pandora uses data and I listen to that a bit. Lots of emails and other little apps that soak up data lol 1.87 gb used and bill cycle restarts 10/05/2012

You join the military and stay in the woods causing you to tether and stream movies almost nonstop since TV is unavailable... not to mention ROM downloads, updates, & the nightly skype calls to your gf..... needless to say I use about 3-3.3 GB a day..

Just wondering I'm in Houston and get 4g most everywhere. What do you get when you run speedtest app? Didn't check before switching plans but now I get constant 5mb... My vibrant could do that on 3g I think this unlimited plan is capped to like 5mb/s but yet still unlimited
are you talking about the 5gb monthly prepaid plan? or is this a paid plan...

Personally, I think this awesome. I have slower seeds than most of you, but I still manage 1.5gb a week.

IM on tmobile grandfather plan and have unlimited data plan but they do cap me at 5gb is that plan still available?
That should be available for a good while. Just to warn everyone on the new unlimited plan,: I did read some where a while back, that if the network does ever get clogged, priority will go to those on the 5gb and 10gb plans
