    Root [MetroPCS/CDMA] Do I Need to unroot? If so, point me the way?

    Just my luck, I dropped my s3 today destroying the screen. Lucky its usable still until I can geta new one. I recently rooted and put SlimBean ROM on. Do I need to unroot before I file a insurance claim?

    Is my s3 GSM?

    So I bought in April and now considering "switching" to TM since it will be much cheaper each month. I can take my s3 over and just buy a sim card, correct? thanks

    Upgrading Device

    So I posted on MPCS facebook page about how every company is offering device upgrades 1-2 times a year, while metro has nothing of the sorts and rebate are for new customers only. I'm getting frustrated with Metro phone prices and the fact we now (personally, thankfully) are owned by TMobile who...

    Activate Yourself

    So I know many folks on here probably know how to activate your metro phones manually, it's 15 bucks in store for a 2 minute automated phone call. It's not illegal to do and if you buy a phone online, they give instructions how. So was metro store today, the lady claimed she couldn't sell me the...

    Help Incoming Call Issue

    My brothers LG-Motion (I'm the tech geek) only lights up when he gets a call, it doesn't show who's calling or anything just lights up with home screen. Caller will be able to leave a message and he can see who called in his missed calls then call them back. Does he just need a new phone??

    Gsm s3

    So I went into a store other day and guy said that they are going to re release the s iii as a gsm device. I bought my s3 in April right before the merger and now it seems:o:( I'm going to have to likely pay for gsm soon cause CDMA is phasing out quickly for them. Would it not be smart to offer...

    Root Should I Root? Couple Qs?

    So I hear and read about people rooting, I've never rooted my phone(s) before, but it's becoming more and more attractive to me. I gotta ask rooters if it's worth it. I guess the main reason I want to root is I hate the LG skin (with a damn passion)...Sammy has an okay skin comparing, but stock...

    Motion to Spirit

    I have to ask Motion users -- Are you interested in the LG Spirit? I mean really speaking you'r spending 250 bucks -50 mail in rebate (unless you wirefly I bet its 200) for 1" of extra screen estate...is it worth it. Personally, I'm not sure. If it had Jellybean I'd be on it for sure, but all I...

    Samsung Galaxy S3

    AndroidNerds is reporting that the s3 is confirmed to be coming to MetroPCS. The newest leak is it's coming in September. September would make sense I guess - they did the Esteem around then. But, what about a late August launch for back to school deals? They did a deal on the Indulge last year...

    Has anyone heard any more chatter about T-Mobile buying Metro? I think it would be good deal for us users in the end.

    Should I Upgrade?

    I'm currently using the Samsung Galaxy Indulge and am wanting to upgrade very soon to the Connect or Esteem. I like the look of the Connect with the dual core 1.2ghz processor, 5mp camera, front facing camera, and Gingerbread, plus the NOVA screen. I use my phone for web surfing, calling...

    Should I upgrade?

    I currently own the Samsung Galaxy Indulge - paid 299 for it back last Summer. I like it, but am starting to fine it bulky, battery is hopeless, kinda small..comparing to Esteem, but still good. Internet speeds are great because it's 4G LTE, and the processor is fast and good, although I get the...
