  1. I have seen this happen several times in the past when I have purchased a new device and swapped an old device over to another line. The last time was slightly more complicated, in addition to moving the device to another line, they changed the number for me (I gave the phone to my goddaughters so they could have a reliable way to call mommy and daddy and of course uncle John!) and I didn't need people pestering them on one of my tertiary numbers. In any event, it was a long drawn out process and these 2 things had to happen in order to properly configure the phone. 1. They had to verify that the proper MDN/MSID was loaded into the phone (and make the necessary changes) which they did in both your case and mine. 2. They had to reprovision the phone from their end (their server lags and it may take up to 20 minutes) for it to properly hit your account/phone/device. you will be restarting the device multiple times hoping that the forced OTA will come through properly. You may want to verify with them several times to ensure that what you see is what they see and vice versa. ----------------------------------AND A SAD ASIDE---------------------------------------- Hopefully you don't also have google voice attached to your device/account, because that brought an entire different complication to the matter. In order to get the phone fully functional (started having call in /call out problems/wouldn't update/ring/etc), they had to completely remove Google Voice from the phone (on the server end) and it could never work again (cringe) since the terms of marriage between el goog/sprint are not as tight as they once were. Obviously that wasn't much of a concern for a phone used by a 9 and 11 year old, but some of us power users love our Google Voice. 9 times out of 10 you can go to a corporate store (with a repair center, make sure it has a repair center!) and they will reprogram the device as @digiblur stated above free of charge. It is possible you have a lemon of course. I will continue trying to find a fully stock (working) ODIN flashable rom/kernel/modem (all in one) for you. In the meantime, get a tech on the phone have them confirm your MDN/MSID settings (make changes if necessary) and once thats good have them reprovision(force OTA) the device from their end.

  3. More aptly, his posturing and complaints are about as pointless as inflatable tits on an evil terminator
  4. Nope.. If he is any kind of terminator he is more than likely this one (take that as you will)

  7. The round table format ate hairy spiders when drunk. Its towers became bloated after swallowing a mouthful of baby formula. The baby ate his poisoned barbeque chicken ribs without A1 steak sauce. Fix the chair leg before somebody trips and breaks their sister's glass. It peed shards of LTE droppings from bubbly fermented apples. Doctors gouge the helpless when options appear dangerously silly for perpendicular slicing. Around 2pm there was another explosive diarrhea attack that drove Dan to SMS SoftBank, which viciously countered MetroPCS;s audacity to compete. Meanwhile, Mexicans discovered sparkly water of Rio which tasted like rainbows. LightSquared, however, beamed sparkly clusters of spectrum at GPS, causing multitudes of bananas being paranoid about world domination. This exacerbated an enormous flock of pelicans into your mother's house. Then seagulls confronted Darla with weapons manufactured in Korea that annihilated Kim Kardashian. She fell backwards after drinking highly intoxicating tequila shots. Uncoincidentally, she tripped over and fell on her face, then vomited major chunks of beef jerky while passing gas. Afterwards, Kanye parachuted over Taylor Swift grave and randomly stomped salmonella spewing
  8. I don't think Masayoshi would abide overnight guests essentially living in his bathrooms. I would probably prefer the poolhouse. But then again, who really knows AJ, most billionaires are known for their eccentricities; or at least until the gag order is put into effect. (and i will leave that last entendre to simmer)
  9. For the price of the house, I imagine the toilets provide a full body massage all while a soothing Majel voiceover inquires as to ones particular mood and automagically adjusts the configuration of the lights, ambience, and soundscape of the "facilities". She will then monitor your vitals and brainwaves while using said facilities to make it the most pleasant toileting experience of your life. With that said, I think we all would want a heaping helping of Google Fiber in our lives. In other news, I think we might have to make a post on how much house we believe Son got for $117m and let our (edit) fertile imaginations become pregnant with all of the possibilities.
  10. Robert, I'm sure if we all eat enough Google Fiber we will likely soil ourselves anyway! And you can take that all the way to the softbank! awww crap.. it isn't even punday yet
  11. Ok ok ok ... yeah.. i will sprinkle your cookies with google fiber
  12. Sounds almost like an arranged marriage to me. You will eventually grow to love it LOL I'm ambivalent on the Hard home button, but believe we can all agree that the soft Menu/Back buttons are useless for the stylus s pen and that needs to be addressed in some way in any future products.
  13. Sounds like it's time for an S4GRU housewarming field trip to Son's house. I will bring the top shelf liquor and grey poupon.
