    My First Impression with NV/LTE=Underwhelming

    Meh. This forum has been quiet, so I thought I give it a kick. :rolleyes: I am currently in one of the NV/LTE rollout second round market. Was quite excited when 4G showed up on my SG Note 2 notification bar. It was intermittent of course, understandable, and the pain with tower switching...

    Swiftkey Flow and Samsung Keyboard

My question is, with the recent announcement that Swiftkey Flow is out of beta, how close is it to what's included in the...

    Sprint Discount Through Referral Program Recently?

    I am currently getting a 25% discount on the Sprint Family Plan. It used to be pretty good, but they have changed it to now the 25% is only applied once to the initial plan price $110, subsequent lines and services receive no discounts. Well, better than nothing, obviously. But, a Sprint...

    Great article from PhoneScoop: How a Sprint Phone Is Born (Phone Scoop) Cool article describing how Sprint works with OEMs and how long they test a phone before launch day (almost a year). There's also a Roadmap diagram attached to the article, not sure how old, but if it takes them a year...

    TEP Protection App

    Anyone made use of this app and it paid off for you? There are so many of these type of apps, albeit this is free as it is part of the monthly Sprint TEP protection. Not interested in the backup and restore contacts option, but the locate, remote lock and wipe options look nice. Do I have to...

    Belkin Slim Folio Case

    Just got the SGT 10.1 a couple days ago and felt it definitely needed a case. I didn't want a case to take away the main reason why I got this thing, but didn't want to spend an arm and a leg either (or wait too long). There are not many options out there, but my local BB carried a couple of...

    sprint id on the epic is an option. you don't have to use it if you don't want to. i don't understand why people are complaining about it. if you chose to use sprint id, all it does is download and install a bunch of liked apps, wallpaper and widgets, right? you can choose to remove the...

    You Have to See It to Believe It

    I just came across this thread from a trusted long time Sprint user. You cannot believe the reduced nationwide coverage by Sprint. It might not be worth it to remain or become a Sprint customer after all. You have to see it to believe it: Sprint Community: Voice and 3G coverage being...
