Benvino Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Yeah, AT&T took all 2 years away last week. Only Next program from now on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickel Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Looks like Best Buy is offering a $100 gift card with purchase, too. They're also not offering a 2yr contract on their AT&T variant...interesting. Sent from my M8 A word of warning to anyone trying to upgrade from Best Buy: They can't update you if you are on framily. You'd have to go to Sprint and change your plan and then upgrade through them, at least at my local Best Buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went in and put in my pre-order without any hassle. But i'm doing Easy Pay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benvino Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 No Framily upgrades at Best Buy, Sprint took that away. You might have been able to preorder but when you go in you will have to switch to one of the new plans. Only Sprint Corp stores can touch Framily. Even if you do easy pay, doesn't make sense, I have Framily can't do anything at my Best Buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ipatella Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 The gift card doesn't come with the phone if you buy it full price does it? The dude at best by told me that's for upgrades only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marioc21 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 The gift card doesn't come with the phone if you buy it full price does it? The dude at best by told me that's for upgrades only. Here's the fine print on the gift card: Offer valid 5/22/15–7/4/15. Pre-order and release date may vary by carrier. Color may vary by carrier. Gift card presented at the time of LG G4 purchase. Offer not combinable with other offers. If you return your cell phone, for any reason, your gift card will be forfeited. Carriers, coverage and products may vary by store. Available in New Jersey. Same price new and upgrade unless otherwise noted. Best Buy may require an existing line of service to receive a new 2-year plan. Carrier requirements may include select plan subscriptions, additional data add-ons, credit approval, usage fees, taxes, surcharges and termination fees. 4G/4G LTE not available in all markets. See a Mobile Phone Specialist for details. Only condition is really to pre-order and then purchase the phone. No mention of upgrades only. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/mobile-phones-promotions/lg-g4/pcmcat378400050000.c?id=pcmcat37840005000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i will keep you up to date. I do like the os. I'll take this phone over samsung but that's cause I'm not a samsung fan. Hopefully this weekend i will have a better update.

I don't know why, but Sprint opts to disable the trace option and disable the option to turn it on in settings. For the G2, you had to change a build.prop line from false to true. Anyone know if there's root yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmark27 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 LTE Roaming setting? Is this just generic, or does it refer to the RRP LTE roaming? Anybody know? AJ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascertion Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 LTE Roaming setting? Is this just generic, or does it refer to the RRP LTE roaming? Anybody know? AJ? It's definitely RRP LTE roaming. It's not enabled by default yet because there aren't any active agreements. 3G roaming is available on some RRP carriers but that's handled by the PRL. I'd say Sprint will release an OTA in the future that will enable the LTE roaming by default. When that time will come, no one knows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jthawks Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 So I tried to get my msl code and they won't let me cause I'm leasing the phone. So if there is anyone out there that is not leasing it and has the code would you please share. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
