Tax Time

Only once a year it comes around. For me it means a new phone, I don't really care about the cost because its a yearly thing. So the question is what kind of phone to buy. I'm bound to a sim card so it's most likely going to be a T-Mobile phone. K so the question is what to buy I was thinking about a Nexus-s or a Droid 2 global because they both have Sims. Any idea's? I'm looking for power, speed, flexibility (rooting) and looks. I'm still rocking a good old g1 but I'm a little obsessed with (ORD) obsessive rom disorder.. some of you can relate.

You will need a lot of patience then...

If I was rich.. I would be switching to Spring and getting an EVO mmmm HTC Evo 4G.

No need to be rich, just visit frequently marketplace and you can get a great deal over there

Patience is a virtue that I have virtually none. But I love my Desire soooooo much that I'll not give it up. Except maybe for a Meizu M9. Anyone has it here?

It looks nice

My GF's in freezing, fouled-up Beijing. I'm advising her to get the Meizu M9 if she insists on an Android... Company owes her some relocation cash and she's running out of ideas on how to spend it.
I'll stick to the Desire until they manage to root the Meizu

Question re: phone upgrades

I see people sometimes talking about getting, for instance, a Thunderbolt, to replace their Droid X. My question is, how are they buying the phones? Verizon only (I thought) gives discounts when your contract is within a few months of expiring, so are they paying full price for the phones? $400, $500, $600, etc? Can someone explain this to me?

I wouldn't worry about it, the world is ending this weekend...

A lot of people do pay full price but most just sell what they have to part subsidise their new purchase. Otherwise it's wait until the contract is up.
Getting back off topic...what are you doing with your last few hours of existance?

Sent from my often RMA'd Nexus 4, So that I can use the one I'm using now when I get the 6th and hopefully final one.

A few of the T Mobile stores in my area want $549 for it or $199.99 under contract.
No thank you t mobile

T-Mobile at it again Google must love them to give them phones when they still have so many orders to fill. Anyway your better getting one off eBay new for cheaper. Just joined T-Mobile and data is good and plan is cheaper. But there customer service is the worst I have ever seen and in some places calls drop or break up.
But coming from sprint were 3g data is horrible its an upgrade. I hope Google buys T-Mobile

Anyone get a C6906 from Nergi Eletronics?

Ordered this weekend and got my phone today, got it crazy fast, unfortunately get a prompt to enter a code because the phone is sim locked even though Nergi stated it was unlocked? They told me I have to wait a few days now for them to get the unlock code, very depressed. Phone seems amazing and I can't use it. Went to ATT and got a new SIM card and all, still wouldn't work.
Anyone find a way to get their phone unlocked quicker? I'd rather not wait the 2-3 days Nergi told me it would take.....

Does the one you got seem to be sim locked to a canadian carrier since that's the only country with c6906 officially? any carrier branding on it? Keep us updated on how it goes I was interested in buying from them as well since it's available cheap to the US.

I got a c6906 a day ago.purchased from an eBay seller.
I am using it on straight talk.
One thing I noticed is when I have to restart the phone, it would say "orange ". Guess that would be a network carrier for some country.
Not sure if I can remove that branding or not.

Orange is European - they don't operate up here in Canada.
Are you certain your phone is C6906 and not C6903?

The keyboard seems to want to default to Canadian English, so it seems to be sourced from there. Kind of annoyed they didn't have unlock codes ready. Now Nergi is telling me end of the week. Paid for overnight shipping too :crying:

Yes it is ...

Who else in COLORADO??

I have SERIOUS dreadful speeds with T-Mobile . I usually get 2mbps download and 1 upload. (Yea thats horrible) all around Denver the highest speed I've ever had while on LTE would be 10mbps. I'm seriously thinking about leaving tmobile for VERIZONs badass service. A friend has Verizon and he's speeds are consistent. Check out the screen shot from here at work. It went from bad to absolutely worse. Can't loud crap. And it isn't the ROM fault. Calling T-Mobile won't fix nothing because there techs are seriously retarded. I've tried what I could to no avail. Maybe there's some kind of tool or something I could use. Speeds have been horrible Ever since I got the note 4 and I even pay the extra $20 for what they call "unlimited" I could take my $80 and go with Verizon and pay an extra $40 for TRULY UNLIMITED, EVERYWHERE. I have a phantom netgear router thats 60 Mbps no matter how many people are connected or what they are doing so going from steady 60 to less than 1 its ridiculous I got a fast phone with horrible service. I could have the fastest phone in the world. But under T-Mobile it becomes the slowest!!!
