[COLOR=#red]Tired of expensive a** Verizon and on top of that it doesn't even get 4G LTE in my apartment.

So I'm getting a T-Mobile Sim card and putting it into my Verizon Galaxy Note 2. It doesn't even have to be unlocked and I will get HSDPA+ speeds which is great. Many people have done the same.

CDMA phones with LTE suck when they don't get a 4G signal, because it defaults to EVDO Rev A which doesn't allow simultaneous voice and data. I'm so used to having that capability that I can't have it any other way. Goodbye Verizon.[/COLOR]

How many necks have you broken wearing it?

Multiple necks have been broken I'm just waiting for someone to ask me what it is so that I can actually use the guess mode.

I switched from Verizon to T-Mobile when I got the N5 and I have had no issues with connectivity. You won't regret switching.

I made the switch from VZW to T-Mobile as well (straight talk). Had it for almost 6 months. I don't get service at my house in SJ (I did with VZW).

Other than that .. it's been

Guest mode??

 

[sooperhooper]

Guest mode.

 

[tripleddd]

Does T-Mobile throttle you after a certain point? I'm getting tired of AT&T with the throttling.

 

[NCtwin]

Guest mode.

That's what I meant. I made the same mistake he did.

How does guest mode work?

 

[sooperhooper]

Probably let's you access general features like Internet or weather but protects personal information like contacts and Web history.

If you're on the $30 plan after 5GB of LTE they throttle you to edge, I believe. I'm close to it, so we'll see, it's my first month of service so far. I'm very pleased so far.

Pretty much. It's a sperate homescreen that you can choose to show what apps/info you want to share. No access to the app drawer, photos or anything.

 

[sooperhooper]

has anyone with a Verizon note 2 been updated yet? I saw an article saying that it was supposed to start last Friday.

I have the $20 unlimited 4G lte plan.
I've used about 10 gbs and my coworkers use 20+ gbs a month since they don't have home Internet and they haven't been throttled. I've asked everybody and they've told me no throttling.

 

[yeah]

Man if the Nexus 5 had the battery life of a G2 it would be my favorite phone out there. This battery kills me sometimes.

The Nexus 5 can have battery life that is just as good as, if not better than, the G2. You just have to root it and flash a different kernel. On my N5 I'm running the Cataclysm ROM with Franco's kernel and can easily go a full day with HEAVY usage. If I leave my phone off the charger for the entire night it might go down 1 or 2% over 6-7 hours, depending on how long I sleep.

So far I'm loving this phone.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

championboyz7 - - I haven't saw that plan where is that available?

Wondering the same thing.

 

[nfynite]

Guest mode??

Its basically a demo mode. You can do all of the stuff that you would normally use Glass for but your Glass Feed is replaced Guest Glass Feed.

[COLOR=#red]preciate the feedback my dudes...yeah I'm tired of how Verizon is always so slow with updates and they're always pushing those dam Droid phones down our throats...then I get to see phones like the N5 go to GSM providers while we're left in the cold.

Shimmy you're correct brother...GSM>>>CDMA. T-mobile has matured to the point where they are a viable alternative.

Anyway back on topic but is there a back order on the N5's or are they shipping out immediately?

Then again I'm not sure I'm ready to give up my Note 2 ....I actually sign paperwork with my Note 2 with the stylus saving me the need to have to print sign then scan and email.[/COLOR]

 

[carver]

Elder it sounds like the note line was made specifically for folks like you brah.. The battery while solid on the N5 the note 2 will run circles around it and using your stylus to sign stuff. I'd stick with the n2 if I were you and wait for the no4

Note 3 then brah. You won't regret it. It was 2am. I was in bed surfing the Web and I had unplugged my phone in the morning b4 I left to work. The battery is RIDICULOUS. I was watching mad videos too. And still had about 40 percent left.
Towards my last few weeks with the note 2. I was barely getting 8 hours. It would he dying when I get home. With a bit of use. Using my Note 3 and using my Note 2 egg shaped and heavy.

 

[dabossofbosses]

^^ I am really just looking for a data plan.. I have the 30 buck 100 mnt unlimited text and lte up to five gbs now.. Did I misunderstood you have a added 20 dollar unlimited data to your existing phone plan?

If you still live in Bryan/College Station T-Mobile isn't a good option. Especially if you have to travel on Highway 6
