I'm ready to smash my cellphone... it keeps fucking up, I can't open more than one application and I can't type with the keyboard.
I think I'm going to go to the sprint store today at lunch and have them fix it or give me a new one. I have a fear that they are going to say it's water damage.

test blah.. of course now it works.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Apr 6,2009 10:53am
but now that I'm here, I can't send emails.. wtf...

What do you have for a phone?

Sorry, I mean "fone"?



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Apr 6,2009 10:58am
my fone is the sprint mogul which they don't sell anymore. I'm hoping that sprint will give me the HTC touch pro in it's place when this one shits the bed again. I've gone through 3 or 4 of these fones.
this is what I have:
http://www.sprintmogul.net/
this is what I wanted:
http://www.htc.com/www/product/touchpro/overview.html
Mostly cause it's got more RAM which is the main problem with my fone.

I really really want to get the palm pre as the next fone that I pay for.

toggletoggle post by the_taste_of_cigarettes  at Apr 6,2009 11:00am
I am switching to Sprint soon, just waiting for the Pre so I don't have to buy it after I sign up. I have until May 5th.



toggletoggle post by RustyPS  at Apr 6,2009 11:08am
just switched to Verizon from Nextel 2 days ago, got an LG enV2....already liking my decision



toggletoggle post by the_taste_of_cigarettes  at Apr 6,2009 11:19am
Verizon is awesome, I really liked them when I had them.

I was forced to switch to AT&T when my dad switched, but I am going to Sprint cause of my sister's family plan. Good rates, though, with Sprint, and once the Pre comes out I bet it will blow away the other touch phones.

mah fone expiriences

Nextel/Sprint - Fuck Nextel and Fuck Sprint. customer service sucks, coverage sucks. fuck the hard

Verizon - (is what i have now) pay as you go. too much dough. customer service is alright. coverage is great.

Teen Mobile - they are awesome all the way around. t-mobile is da bawllz. i owe them $150.00 so i am not able to use them for now.

does anyone else use pre-paid pfones? any suggestions. i don't need the fance faggy shit. just whateverr.asdggg



toggletoggle post by the_taste_of_cigarettes  at Apr 6,2009 11:27am
I kinda wanted T-Mobile, but I'd have to go it alone, and that can get pricey.



toggletoggle post by trampletheweak at Apr 6,2009 11:33am
i have verizon, its a little more expensive, the customer service at stores is ok, you have to go to one with tech support to get any real help or questions answered. upside is ive never had a problem with service, i have the EnV 1 with a broken front screen, the phones arent put together that well but their usually pretty quick to replace them.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Apr 6,2009 11:49am
I've been with sprint since may or june 1999. I've got a contract until july 2009. But I have the $7/month add on that if my phone er fone breaks, I get 1 hour service or $50 replacement if there is loss/damage. I'm going to go there and bitch, get a new fone or something like I've done 3-4 times now. Keep that fone until I'm sick of it and then re-do my contract for the palm pre if it's the bomb like it seems to be.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Apr 6,2009 11:50am
I'm also mad at sprint cause I pay $55/month after 9+ years with less services than carina on sprint for $35/month.



toggletoggle post by sxealex   at Apr 6,2009 12:18pm
sprint is teh ghey... you should just get a iphone and some gsm provider the ad2p/file transfer/bluetooth modem hack is almost ready. also you can make it a wireless router which is kinda cool if yer at a show. is the sprint internerd that much faster or is yer fone that much cooler?



toggletoggle post by sxealex   at Apr 6,2009 12:21pm
btw i dunno why people complain about att/cingular ive had it since 2000. its been good for me other than one year when they would fuck up my bill alot.



toggletoggle post by sxealex   at Apr 6,2009 12:23pm
the keyboard looks nice on your phone



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Apr 6,2009 12:36pm
at&t would raise my bill for what I got thru sprint to 120$ a month.
fuck that.
I already have tethering on my phone so... why hack anything? sprints network covers 95% of where I go.

Well, they didn't say water damaged... all they did was flash the ROM and tell me that my kb didn't work cause I had too many 3rd party apps. sure, that makes sense.
/sarcasm



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at May 13,2009 8:01am
im going to go back today. it of course didn't help and I've lost near 1/2 of the reviews that I type in some way shape form. it's working fine now of couse... but I keep typinf reviews and things with out looking at the phone and either the shift key sticks so that everything after a ' is just symbols or a whole sebtebce only inputs a couple characters.

US Cellular. It works where I live (in the woods) and I can has free Blackberry (thanks, company I work for).



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at May 13,2009 1:42pm
They "fixed" my phone. I leave and it doesn't work again. I go back and it works again.
They are sending me a new one in the mail tomorrow. 5th one of these phones.

I drive away from the place with my phone and it stops working again.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at May 13,2009 2:55pm
This phone is aggravating. Someone at work said that they exchange my phone for refrubs of the new model. that would be awesome. double awesome.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at May 14,2009 7:12pm
ok... they sent me a refurb of my same model and the screen looks terrible. 3 places where it looks like someone put their finger into the phone and the sides looks like a laptop monitor when it's about to die. plus when I put my battery in the back camera thing fell of and won't go back on.



toggletoggle post by Lamp  at May 14,2009 8:06pm
What a weird day to see this thread, my phone started fucking up today. It got wet while in my pocket while I was power washing. The guy at the phone store told me to take out the battery and put the phone over something hot like a TV so the wires can dry out, then it MIGHT work again.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Jun 1,2009 6:31pm
I told the lady that the screen was messed up on this thing. the scratch that was on it is now a crack across the phone. I've had one of these in my pocket for 10 months with out cracking the screen. now this. also, the keyboard is locking the function key when it's not supposed to and im getting a lot of double w,e,r,c, and n

transferred 5+ more times. gots set to the insurance program and they said "pay us $50 for the same phone"

Just tell them you want to cancel everything and switch to another company. I did that to T-mobile and got 6 months for free....then still cancelled.



toggletoggle post by dertoxia   at Jun 8,2009 10:21pm
Oh and if you stay with sprint because they have 4G.....i'm sure that both verizon and at&t will have 4G service within a year probably.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Jun 8,2009 10:26pm
they can't do anything and I have to drive 1hr 10minutes to the sprint store cause each time I went to the sprint store they opened up a ticket for me. 4 tickets in 60 days mean that the people on the phone can't do jack shit.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Jun 12,2009 4:37pm
ok, spent another 40 minutes on the phone with sprint. they can't do jack shit. AND they upped the price of the insurance to $100 from $50. They basically said "go to a repair shop, sorry".
My phone is constantly needing to be rebooted. I'm backing it up now and going to the fucking sprint store to get my fucking 8th fucking mogul.

they couldnt fix my phone and are sending a touch pro 2 to me at home. cant wait. 800x480 screen, winmo 6.5, and a better kb. this will hold me over until spring has an iphone killing droid.
