I'm not as negative now on the BB London. It is a sharp looking phone. Although I like the stainless steel that was on the earlier prototype better. I'm a little optimistic about OS x10 with support for Android apps. If enough Android developers join RIM and add their apps to the BB App World, they just might have a shot. I think it will then just come down to performance. Because if the BB London feels sluggish compared to all the dual core gems and new quad cores coming out, then it won't matter. But if BB plays all their cards right with the London, I could see myself picking one of these up as a secondary phone. Especially if you can install any Android APK yourself and not forced to use only submissions that have managed to find their way to BB App World. Sent from Tapatalk App

What's your speed like RIGHT NOW?

Hey christopherc18. I sent you your account login in a Private Message to the old site. Go check it out so you can sign in and post in the new forums. We are going to be blocking Guest comments. Too many problems with that, in general. Sent from Tapatalk App -
Cyanogen Mod 9 (ICS) is coming soon to the Epic 4G Touch
S4GRU replied to pyroscott's topic in OS'es/ROM's & Themes
I'm excited. Though I won't jump in the Alpha, I'm excited to see some movement. Sent from Tapatalk App -
I'm really excited about the thought of a Sprint version of the RAZR MAXX with LTE. I sure hope Google can straighten out the issues with Moto quickly. Sent from Tapatalk App

I know I saw on the SprintFeed site that Sprint ranked second in the new results. Was the one posted here a different group? Or is this a typo? Just curious. http://www.sprintfeed.com/2012/02/sprint-ranks-second-in-customer-service-in-j-d-power-and-associates-study-scores-number-one-on-the-web/ Sent from Tapatalk App

Thanks. I'm sorry for all the warnings everyone was dumped with in their Private Messages. The settings of the Spruz servers could not be modified around it. And the scripts I wrote for the migration really went bonkers several times. But I'm very happy to see you made it over to the new site. I'm loving it so far. And I'm really happy to be typing responses on my phone so easily! Sent from Tapatalk App

Its piqued my interest. If Sprint can get an aptly named Epic version of it with LTE, I'm sold. However, if HTC beats them with some Evo flavored LTE product that is well spec'd...I may go with that first. I think I will skip the Galaxy Nexus, because in some ways its inferior to the E4GT. But I really want the first well spec'd quad core LTE phone as my next device. Sent from Tapatalk App

Did I just see "stable" in the same sentence as a Windows product? Wow. I never thought I'd see this day! Sent from Tapatalk App

I think some carriers are excited about a single technology network where all frequency is being utilized at maximum spectral efficiency. Verizon certainly is aiming for an all LTE network at warp speed ahead. I think in the case of Verizon, they want an all LTE network for simplicity and cost savings. And the ability to repurpose all its existing spectrum to LTE as soon as they can reasonable force its customers to migrate. In the case of MetroPCS, I think they are so deseperate for LTE spectrum, that they desperately need to use its 1x spectrum for LTE. So why not kill two birds with one stone? I don't advocate that these are the best solutions necessarily. But I can see why these two carriers are pursuing it so readily. VoLTE is going to be interesting to watch deploy and mature.

This is actually the smartest move its made in years. I think Apps is the biggest thing hurting their new OS 10. And to be able to run Android apps in a BB environment will be a very good thing. It may not get them to a place of growing market share. But it will help slow or stop their customer turnover. The remaining BB people are a die hard lot. They want a reason to stay. Any reason.

I couldn't agree more. HTC used yo be the best. But they are getting left behind. Their new prototypes look great, though. So if they can get their new stuff to marker quickly, with ICS and get competitive to Samsung, then HTC can pull out of the dive no problem. If they continue in the death spiral just throwing their hands in the air, then they will be just like RIM. Just wondering how much longer until they hit water. Sent from Tapatalk App

Have you tried using our Mobile HTML5 website for smartphones or the Tapatalk app, yet, to access Sprint 4G Rollout Updates? I am using Tapatalk to type this post from my Epic 4G Touch. Sent from Tapatalk App

Would you consider leasing a phone instead of buying?
S4GRU replied to legion125's topic in General Topics
I'm intrigued with the idea. However, given that I like to be able to dork with and customize my phone, its probably not a good solution for me. Something like this is a better fit for iPhone and WP than Android products. BTW, this is my first post on the new site. And I'm doing it from the mobile website! -

I remember reading about 3 or 4 years ago some naysayers said it was virtually impossible to handoff between VoLTE and existing voice networks, and that VoLTE networks would have to be stand alone. Boy, did they call that wrong! I love evolving technology.

But it was a long, drawn out process. And one of the reps was slightly combative.

Sprint service in my city and all points south is great. But if you drive 5 miles north of town, the next Sprint service you get will be in Durango, Colorado or Pueblo, Colorado, depending which way you travel. I live off Verizon roaming in these areas.
