[TOOL] AT&T VS. Pre-Paid Calculator - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I posted this on the Nexus 4 Forums and figured I would also share it here:

This tool is for those of us that are currently under an AT&T contract and thinking of purchasing the Nexus 4. Since this phone comes shipped unlocked and without a contract, we might as well consider switching carriers to maximize our savings. I put together this Excel spreadsheet to do the math automatically and figured I would share:

In my case I would break even in about 6 months after paying the ETF and then save around $70 / month. My savings per year is equal to about the cost of 3 nexus 4's..

I is depressing that you are considering switching over to the Nexus from the hox. The nexus will not even have LTE. I know it gets Jellybean but even if you loose root you will be able to get it back sooner or later anyways.

Cool tool.

What will Supersede my current smartphone

I got an ideos U8150 because my nokia 2690 was only giving me a day and conking out. So I figured what the h*ll, everyone is claiming the ideos only lasts 12hrs before you frantically look for a power source.
I went ahead and bought it mainly because its a super flexible phone, I mean at campus we modded its kernel to turn lights on and off via wifi and it worked flawlessly since its OS is not proprietary. I had wanted to take an android samsung but most dont have much support in terms of customization and modding, those that do, have proprietary issues.
Anyway to get to the point I manage to get over 4 days with the U8150 as seen below:-

Now I need an apprentice phone that will hold this legacy, So "who will be my next apprentice?" . My price target range is $200 - $270

Unlimited data scam

The old thread was deleted (for good reason) but just wanted to remind everyone that any product or service for sale that claims it can get you unlimited data on the Verizon network is a scam. I've seen these products on Amazon, Ebay, and Facebook.

wow are you serious? Did you not read the title of this thread? Did you not see the conversation I posted?

Assuming no 3D phone is announced/shown at MWC...

What does everyone plan on getting for their next phone?
I'll probably get a Nexus 4 or to spite LG for never updating the O3D and giving up on it, I might hold out and go Galaxy Note 3.

Note2 1jaar contract waiting for note 3 all for the pen or better
Maybye 3D+pen
Apparently, LG will not be introducing any new 3D phone this year, so it's safe to say that we'll never see that official ICS ROM...
I will not buy LG phones for years to come, unless they're Nexus phones. I'll stick with BlackBerry 10 phones and downgrade my O3D to Gingerbread so that I can take 3D pictures. If 3D cameras get cheaper, I might get one .
My contract is allmost over now,but im not gonna biy anything special. Im gonna take probably ZTE Blade 3,just so i could have a spare phone. And then in august or september im gonna get the nexus 4 through the Pocket Change reward system.

Note 5, remove "Sprint" boot screens, perhaps with Package Disabler Pro?

I bought a new-old Note-5 (it's 2018 as of writing) which was locked to Sprint. (I use AT&T in USA.)
Since of course Sprint won't unlock being a-holes, I used one of the excellent online services where you pay $30 and a dude logs in to your phone and unlocks it for you (I think it was unlockallcellular.com ) - all good so far. Works perfect with AT&T or any sim.
However my lovely Note 5 has the lame Sprint boot screens.
I have heard that Package Disabler Pro can get rid of this for you?
In short which items then should I disable, or ?? I have fear, help1

search on "sprint" ..
BTW sorry for the lame question. I'm an iOS engineer, but I only use Samsung/Android phones as my personal actual phone.
I hung on to my Note 3 for years, I notice the brand new Notes have no physical button! So I was pleased to get a new unused (but apparently Sprint locked) Note 5 !
Please help your Droid newb friend!

So, uh, Verizon just shipped me a free Pixel Stand!

Pics included. I had no idea this was a thing! View attachment 4629894

Not sure about US but in Canada so far we do get a pixel stand as a gift with pixel 3 order.
Yeah, I was under the impression that here in the US we were just getting however many months free of YouTube Music. Which I don't qualify for since I've already had a free trial in the last two months or whatever lol

Verizon is the only US supplier offering the stand as a free gift with P3 purchase. But I thought it was only for pre-ordered units. All others can take advantage of the BOGO offer if you add a new line.
My understanding the free stand was for pre-orders on launch day only.
I pre-ordered the day it was announced, but didn't hear anything about this offer. So a nice surprise today!

It's was free with on line pre-orders only from Verizon.
