So my contract is up and I'm thinking about switching to ATT. I'm going to wait until the inspire 4g first. Any thoughts on ATT?
The EVO you wish you had
Data plans sucks to be honest
Right now I pay 140 a month with a 20% discount. This is for a family data plan. I would get the same discount with ATT. I think I would pay about 160 or 170 with ATT

I think it comes to around $100 a month for a single line, not sure, never had a contract in my life jsut stuck around with prepaid. also you must be carefull when on roaming, as charges are heavy. if your just going for the phone, then you should wait as there are more phones coming to other networks
Thanks for the info. I didn't know ATT charged roaming.

Switch to T-Mo for the best Android phones and awesome customer support.

Frankly, if you live somewhere without 3G and want to use data, AT&T really sucks.
All this fastest network crap is moot when verizon and tmobile have high speed networks where I live and it takes me a full minute to load a web page.

Im in the same boat all my phones are going to be up this year and was thinking of switching to Tmo. but i have been with sprint for 9 or 10 years now and have not had one problem. so i might just stay with sprint.
Im on ATT and im on a family plan right now; my phone costs a total of 30 bucks a month (5 for having the line, 25 for 2gb data).
You should definitely wait until mwc to see what all comes out. The inspire looks really good though.
Captivate 2.2.1 Paragon
I used to have AT&T and I switched to T-mo when the Nexus S was released. I got tired of my iphone and wanted to experience android. So glad i did!
I had been on AT&T for 7 years (4 years being an iphone user) and never really had any issues with there service.
I travel alot and always got wonderful reception no matter where I went ( besides LA, if you live in LA avoid AT&T)
if your looking to switch to AT&T I would deff check out the Moto Atrix 4G. Although I never liked motorola to be honest and think there phones are junk. There putting an a killer phone. Tegra 2 processor. Super AMOLED plus LCD.
Check out the Atrix 4G over the inspire, the inspire is sort of old technology I feel like when compared to the new powerhouse phones coming out with tegra 2's.
HTC should of revamped the Inspire with new internals instead of just rebranding the Desire.
Go for a company with a Unlimited Data Plan. I hate the ATT Data Plan.
I have been back and forth to Verizon a couple of times this week looking at the thunderbolt ...Right now I have a nexus s with T-Mobile,witch I do love,but am really not game to stick around with disaster that at&t is going to create...so my question, who has gotten one coming from a nexus s or galaxy's and how do u like it? This is one hard decision for me to make,any real honest opinions would be great

I switched from a Nexus S. The TB is an awesome phone and the data speeds are amazing. Really the single downside that I've found is that the black levels of the screen don't compare at all to the Nexus S, but then again nothing else really compares to the contrast of Super Amoled. The TB screen however does appear clearer and sharper to me than the NS screen. I have no regrets about switching, and my plan is only $5/month more on Verizon than I was paying to Tmo.
I switch from a mytouch 4g and haven't looked back.
Verizon is more expensive then tmobile in every way and luckily my company has a 19% off voice plans so my transition was easier.
Lte is definitely worth it if you can get grandfathered into the unlimited plan.
Sent from my htc Thunderbolt
One other thing, if you aren't in a 4g area then I don't think I would switch.
I switched from Tmobile as well. I think it is a great idea. I have had both Galaxy S phones and HTC phones on Tmoible ( I had every top end phone that came out between the N1 and the MT4G).
I think that now is a great time to jump ship and get Grandfathered into Verizons Unlimited 4G data plans before they go to tiered. The speeds are Amazing. I mean like 3-5 times the speeds of the fastest speed test I ever pulled with Tmobile. I could get 5-6mbps on Tmo in strong HSPA+ area. I get a minimum of 10mpbs down on Verizon, and have seen speeds nearing 30mbps down and 35+ up. That is twice my comcast cable modem speed.
I think the 200$ etf was worth every penny! The phone is nice and compares to every top end phone out there. It is on the best network in the USA according to consumer reports.
GET IT. I have no regrets leaving TMO. It is awesome I get coverage everywhere now, real 4G and Strong 3G where 4G isn't!
I have the Nexus S and got this device as well. LTE is simply stunning. that being said, I returned the Thunderbolt because in the end, the Nexus S was the better phone for me. You'll be happy with either phone for sure but there are pros and cons on each side and really comes to the individual user. If you are thinking about it, try it out as you have 14 days before you have to commit. Verizon is the best carrier hands down but I've never had any issues with T-Mobile either. So to me the decision wasn't about the carrier but about the devices themselves
I have until next Friday to decide, its when I get payed and will have to sell my ns shortly there after,and yea my Verizon bill would only run about $15 more then with T-Mobile ..

That's not known yet, it still has to pass some regulatory hurdles and complaints filed by Sprint. Although I hear yeah, the thought of AT&T makes me cringe too.
I just opened a brand new account on vzw and got Thunderbolt. Wasn't ready to give away my iOS experience and AT&T 3G that's actually pretty decent and nicely fills the speed gap between LTE and EVDO. My Verizon plan is heavily discounted through corp employee channel so I really can't complain.
The LTE network alone is worth switching to Verizon.
I'm like gr8Gorilla. I've owned just about every one of TMOs better phones, and yes there was a few I enjoyed very much. After hearing the news last Sunday about AT&T taking over, or wanting to take over TMO I knew it was time for me to take off. I refuse to put a dime into AT&T pockets!
Anyway, my thoughts on Verizon... Hands down It was the best move I've made all year thus far. IT's BIG, it's an HTC, it has good weight to it, and best of all it's F'ING FAST!
Yeah, I'll be paying a little more, but in the end it's gonna be well worth it! Stop thinking about it, and JUST DO IT!

So I know there is a pool of people like me that recently purchased a Charge in order to get locked into an unlimited data plan. I assume there is also a smaller set of people, like me, who did this despite the fact they would have rather waited and purchased the Samsung Galaxy S2, but were forced into this decision because of the now enacted tiered data plans. With that being said and the recent news of the GS2 being released next month, I want to know if there is a way to switch from the Charge to the GS2, preferably without paying full retail for the phone (or adding a line). Any insight from current or former Big V employees or aggressive customers on how to go about this, if at all?

theres no guarantee it will be a verizon function (or whatever its called) released next month or that it will have lte *unless i missed a news story about that*
so odds are it ill just be tmo/att gsm versions followed by sprint, then vzw...hopefully the vzw one isnt the only 3g one
but no there is no way at launch you can get one on contract price without opening a new line

Well, this may not be any help to you, but it may help someone.
Best Buy Mobile is the only place that I know that still has a 30 Day exchange policy for Verizon. Unless the GS II comes out the first week of the month you would be out of luck. But you never know someone my be able to hustle one when it releases.
If you got it from costco you can return within ninety days

I have yet to see any news about the SGS2 on Verizon anytime soon. While it will hopefully be out in the next month or two, there are no guarantees.
My guess is that there will be a flood of used charges on craigslist when the gs2 releases.

The Galaxy S2 is the device I really have been waiting for but after having 4g speeds there is no way I can go back to a 3g device. As far as I know the S2 will not be LTE.

You do know you didn't have to buy a new phone to be grandfathered into unlimited data,right? As long as you don't downgrade to a feature phone, you could continue having unlimited data for as long as you're a Verizon customer and don't downgrade.

I'm guessing he's basing that off of how thin it is.
I wonder if that new Verizon Samsung slider that's been wandering the interwebs lately is Verizon's SGS II...
I'm basing it off of not a single mention of LTE in the many many reviews online. We have leaked specs on the entire phone pretty much but not one place mentions LTE.
I haven't reviewed the specs of the gs2. Is it a dual core phone? Have you noticed all 4g lte phones are single core? What I was told by verizon is the lte connection somehow literally fries the current dual core processors thus resulting all the lte phones being single core and also why the droid bionic hasn't been released. To conclude my yapping is if the gs2 is a dual core phone then it's likely to be just for 3G.
Gremlins are watching you...
I bought my charge at costco hoping to either get a bionic or gs2 but I'm very happy with my charge even umrooted... I haven't had the need for a dual core cpu and when I do I want a snap dragon dual core. I
am good

I am a new customer coming over from Sprint. I was not satisfied with their service but stuck with them because they were more affordable and had unlimited everything. Preferred LTE over Wimax and made the switch a few days before the new tiered data plans. I could have gotten a reliable 3g phone for much cheaper, but I could not resist the LTE.

1. no one has reviewed (or seen) a VERIZON sgs2 yet which would be the only one capable of running lte atm
2. going by leaked roadmaps is pointless as some have said lte others not
3. we will have to wait and see, but that sammy slider WAS lte, and unlikely to be the sgs2...i think it ll be another refreshed sgs 1
Most likely the GS2 will be only 3g. Having tasted 4g on the Charge, I can't imagine going back to those slow speeds. However, I think it'll still be a top seller.

TO Sprint! While I liked my G2X and LOVED all teh support it was getting from all of the developers, the service in my area was just unbearable. Since I moved here 4 years ago I was not able to even stream a song or pandora on the crap EDGE network.
I got the Samsung Galaxy SII Epic 4G Touch and I am loving it so far. I got a hell of a deal and couldnt pass it up. I know Verizon is a better network to be on but it was $30 more and it wasnt truly unlimited like Sprint is.
I got my G2X through Best Buy Mobile and signed up for the buy back program.. well today I went to go see how much that buy back is worth and they gave me $450 for my G2X! It was too good to pass up. So with that $450 I paid the $200 for the new sprint phone, and another $200 for terminating T-mobile contract and walked out of the store with a $50 best buy gift card. It blew my mind, I got paid to switch to a better network and better phone.
Just wanted to shout out to all the devs and support and thanks for all the frustrating times with the old beast.

Yeah I dumped Sprint earlier this year. Couldn't stand the thought of paying $10 extra a month for "smart phone fee" that used to be called "4G" data fee. Of course my city doesn't have Sprint 4G so you could understand how I felt about that bogus fee. My Sprint 3G download speed at home was 100-300kb per sec. I am getting 7-8meg per sec download with Tmobile. I also got 1 bar with Sprint at home and I get full bars at home with Tmobile.

Ya my buddy on sprint with his nexus s sitting right next to me gets 1.2mb down and I get 8mb down during peak hours he wasn't too happy with his choice either. Best wishes to the OP, how is epic touch, SGSII?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Thanks folks, I only get 1.2Mbps here inside on 3G. I read everywhere that sprints 3G is slow but it sure beats the heck out of 128Kbps to where I cant even use Pandora while going for a jog. I can still watch youtube and stream netflix and all ther other stuff just fine. T-mobile has no support in my area whatsoever, Best Buy Mobile carried their phones here for like 8 months and just dropped them all last week and picked up Cricket of all things... I did like HSPA+ here in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis / St. Paul) I pulled like 5 down but I was with my friend that just got the LG Revolution and he pulled 12 down which was pretty nuts.
The SGSII is pretty sweet, Its living up to the hype I gues. Its really speedy and the screen is nice. I used to have a Vibrant before the G2X and everybody knows how crappy the GPS was on that among other things which is why I was leary on getting another Samsung. I have run GPS test side by side and the G2X never gets anything below a full green par and 6.1 foot accuracy, and this SGSII took alot longer to get to the 6.1 foot accuracy and didnt lock onto half of the satellites the G2X did and the signal strength was less than half. Aside from GPS I think the SGSII wins in every catagory, it takes amazing phones, I just wish with this huge 4.53" screen that the resolution was better but its hardly noticeable.
I was going to hold out for T-mobiles variant of the SGSII but it doesnt have the Exynos and I was never going to see the 42Mbps ever around here anyways so I had enough of not using internet without wifi. I also kind of wanted to see what teh Nexus Prime was going to be like but it seems like every phone that ever comes out has some sort of huge problem with it especially the G2X and first gen galaxy S phones. And who knows if the Prime is going to have some sort of defect. There are no major hardware problems reported of the SGSII so far and thats all that mattered to me. It has everything I need. I would assume there is going to be ALOT of support for this new device since all the first gen EVO people are probably getting an upgrade soon and want it and there have boon tons of people coming from the Evo 3D because well.. that device blows.
Well it seems that all of samsungs new phones are based off of the galaxy s design in some way or another so you would have to think that with each iteration it gets better. I'm sure the prime will be a beast of a phone. I felt the nexus s was outdated before it even launched

Yeah their insurance is WAAAAAY better too. I highly suggest it. Its like $2 more than sprints but i can smash the phone weekly without question and they will replace it with no deductible no questions asked.. now that I think about it HAHAHAHAHA I gave them my G2X with MIUI running on it, they never even bothered to check it while i was in the store. They probably messed around withit thinking it was some phone from the future. I miss MIUI Touchwiz sucks.
My main reason for dumping Sprint was because in summer of 2010, I got 2mbps on evdo, in August 2011 I was slower than edge. The 10 dollar fee didnt bother me too bad, but then they took away my yearly phone subsidy. This broke the straw.

Not to be an a$$, but did you research sprint lately? They've made tons of changes to their policies and terms. Not to mention, their network took a big hit with alltell (I think it was theirs) towers being sold off. Their 4g partner clearwire is courting other carriers, and their new 4g partner is having trouble clearing the FCC.
There's been a lot of people leaving lately! I'm sure this can be found with most carriers, but sprint doesn't have anything concrete for the future!
GL! Hope all goes well for you!

Ok, I've looked at all the carriers and the resellers to include post and pre. I've been on a family plan for ever and I'm about to drop off and start my own family plan with my daughter.
I've just gotten a settlement and want to pay up front for at least the first year or more but want to stick to under 2K. What I'm having trouble with is deciding which is best. Everything I read is this is better but another says different.
When I drop off the Verizon and start my own I'll lose the unlimited data so I need to consider data, 4g, unlimited and whatever on 2 androids and what is the best latest and greatest.
Sprint looks like cheapest but no 4g unless I'm seeing it from for Arkansas and Indiana. Verizon has best coverage but data is limited and raises price when you go over which I would. ATT is expensive and has 2Gb cap which is about same for T-Mobile.
I'd love to buy two unlocked kick ass quad cores and do Simple which would be 4G but hear it's unreliable.
Anyone have any recent experience like mine that can share some input? I'm needing 2 Androids (best phones) with unlimited data (or a ton of it) and unlimited text and pic, plus around 1000 or more minutes.
My brain is fried, only reason I'm asking... Prolly over thinking but it's a lot of money.
go with sprint or tmo?
since data is obviously a big must for you, i would suggest considering sprint above all. it will give u the unlimited data and relatively affordable prices. theyre launching the samsung galaxy nexus with 4g lte support very soon, and that of course, is a great developer phone.
if not the galaxy nexus, you will want to consider the samsung galaxy s ii epic 4g touch. it is sprint's version of the galaxy s 2 and definitely a phone that can hold its own. both phones are about 199 up front, and are quality samsung smartphones that should last you two years.
tmobile is a good carrier to consider because even though data is capped at 2gb, its 4g hspa+ network is pretty fast, and if oyu go over, they will only throttle your speeds, not charge you an overage fee. the throttling will be annoyingly slow (i speak from experience), but at least you wont pay overages. for tmobile phones, i would consider the htc one s or the samsung galaxy s ii. both phones are solid, dual-core phones and the one s launches with android 4.0 on board.

I've been thinking it's going to be sprint but not having the 4G is bugging me big time. It's almost as if they painted the whole map with 3G though so it will help. Daughter will be staying put in college but I'll be bouncing all over the place helping family take care of different things until I start getting low on funds again.
I cant do the throttled data as it will most likely be my only internet in the Toy Hauler that I'll be sleeping in and I like my Netflix to much. Maybe someone will know some magic combo that is better than anything I've seen so far. Have two weeks till she can port her number.
which sprint phone?
that makes sense, if cellular data is going to be your primary source of internet, then sprint's unlimited plan is probably the way to go. (but i would like to hear if anyone has any better ideas).
what smartphone are you leaning towards for you and your daughter?
If you're looking for an available quad-core then no questions asked it's the HTC One X.
And you want 4G? Don't make it a priority in your checklist, 4G won't have the same coverage as 3G in the next 2-3 years and by then you'll probably be getting a new phone. IMO get into a carrier with the best 3G coverage if data is a must for you. You won't need anything faster on a mobile device anyway.

I had been looking to buy a digitizer for a G2X my niece had laying around and hitting Simple Mobile then my daughter told me she's paying 94 per month to ATT and has the smallest minute package and only 2GB of data. I'm used to being unlimited and paying less than that so I think that's insane.
I was looking at 2 that was on sprints site both being 1.2 dual, Nexus and G11 S Epic. Daughter already has an Iphone and I will if I have to (she asks) buy her another but I'd hate giving money for a mac phone. Would rather pay double for an Android than the iphone.

If you're looking for an available quad-core then no questions asked it's the HTC One X.
And you want 4G? Don't make it a priority in your checklist, 4G won't have the same coverage as 3G in the next 2-3 years and by then you'll probably be getting a new phone. IMO get into a carrier with the best 3G coverage if data is a must for you. You won't need anything faster on a mobile device anyway.

That One X comes out in June to sprint. I can stay in my family plan I'm in now if hers being att doesn't try and lock her into another two year.
