    Can't decide whether to get the 4s on Virgin or the Iphone 5 on Sprint

    Yes, I have decided to give the Iphone a try. Problem is, I can't decide whether to get the 4s on Virgin Mobile, since it's cut by $200 now, or to get the Iphone 5 from Sprint on a two year contract. Which decision would save me the most money in the long run?

    Well, I'm tired of this phone.

    The radio interface crap error is an everyday thing for me. I cant text for more than 5 minutes without getting it. I'm sick of it, and have decided I want a new phone. I just wanted to know, since this phone is like brand new, if there was any place I could sell it online, for its parts? I...

    Help 4g not working

    For whatever reason, my 4g isn't working. When I turn it on, I get a notification saying "4G antenna is on. Tap to scan for 4G service." And that's it. When I usually turn it on, it replaces the 3G icon to 4G obviously, but today it just doesn't want to do that. I tried rebooting and it's still...

    Help cant make/recieve calls or texts if i turn off 3g

    Wtf! It worked perfectly fine before. I usually turn 3g off when I'm not using my phone because it drains battery. But now, if I turn 3g off, I can't make or receive calls or texts. This just started happening today. Anyone have any idea why? :/

    Help So far, can't move any apps to SD card.

    So basically, what I did was I took my SD card from my LG Optimus V and plugged it into this new phone. I don't know if it was right for me to just do that or not. But I can't find those apps anywhere on my phone, even with a file manager. So I decided to install those apps again from the Play...

    Can I add minutes to my existing minutes?

    I've been talking a lot on the phone recently and I currently have 197 minutes left for the month so I was wondering if buying a 100 minute card will actually add 100 mins to my 197 or will it stay at 100?

    Guys, we're not gonna get 2.3 without rooting.

    There's 2 new phones coming to virgin mobile that're both gonna have Android 2.3 on it. Why would they update our phone (that's now at a cheaper prize) rather than making us spend 2-300 dollars on a new one.

    Jealous!

    My girlfriend's Optimus S got the 2.3 update today. Gahhhh, Virgin Mobile, I know you're at the cheaper end of the stick but right now you suck!

    I've been hearing that this phone doesn't let you download certain apps. It's not the phone itself, it's Boost Mobile. I've heard that Boost requested that the Android Market block access to certain popular apps. And if that's the case, then WTF, that's the whole purpose of an Android Device. If...
