Hey, my Droid Incredible is about a year old but even after trying out multiple chargers, none of them work. It seems to be a connection issue with the Micro USB port itself. I pretty much have to bend the USB cable behind the phone at a certain angle to charge it. I can't babysit the phone to make sure it is charging. Does anyone know my options in getting a repair/replacement, and about the cost?

I think I know the answer but I just want to make sure: I am able to upgrade my phone but pretty much everything is 4g these days. I assume that when I upgrade, I will lose my unlimited data plan? I currently use 4+ gb a month (mostly from google music streaming... i think) and I'm afraid of paying out the butt. Actually, that and with how expensive phones are (ones that I like, anyway- I think the highest I could go is the droid razr for 149.99, and that's a stretch) are the only reasons why I don't want to upgrade. Looks like I'll be sticking with the Incredible until it dies. Another question: Why is it that amazonwireless says its only going to cost 99.99 to upgrade to a galaxy nexus on a single plan, but if I'm a family plan its going to cost 229.99? I'm not getting two phones! Doctor Butts fucked around with this message at 22:43 on Mar 19, 2012 |

I got the "4G LTE Charge" e-mail. I was interested for a minute (since i'm eligible for a new phone), but even though it was free, I'm still not interested in getting a Samsung phone, let alone one that came out almost a whole year ago. I'm still using my Incredible.

bull3964 posted:Pricing for the Incredible 4G has come out. That's loving bullshit, IMO. The Razr Maxx isn't even 300. Are they thinking its better? The incredible 4g only has a vga front camera compared to the Maxx's HD front camera. I am not going to spend that much. Anyway, as I posted in the other thread, and since people upgrading from their verizon phone might care, I still haven't upgraded my Incredible, but the Droid Razr just dropped 50$ so now the phone is only 99$. I don't know if that's permanent, or just a thing for the time being. But, I am seriously considering getting it. edit: the info about the incredible price might not be final because who knows if its even 'official' considering the link to the phone doesn't work on the teaser.

Too late. The Razr Maxx was out of my price range. But, after what just happened while ordering the Razr, maybe I could have. Some really weird crap on the Verizon site. I log in, it says "oh hey guess what you can get the razr for 99$" Sweet. That's in my budget. I decide I can buy it. So I login to the site again, click "upgrade my device" and it says the phone is only 49.99. What? Ok, so I add it to my cart, and it says its $99 again. Ok. I go through the checkout, and then the price displays 49.99 + the $30 phone upgrade fee- $80. Ok, I guess things are going pretty good. Then out of nowhere, I am about to hit 'buy the motherfucking phone already i don't want your accessories' I keep seeing 80$... somewhere. But then it starts applying these discounts of of nowhere and by the time I'm about to click the final "are YOU SURE you want this?" button, the price charged says $36. Just the upgrade fee and the tax on the upgrade fee. I don't get it.

Earlier today I would click on it, and the supposed price was $99 even with the $50 NE2 credit. When I went through the shopping cart, this big red thing came up stating that my business/work discount would not apply. Regardless, I feel like I got away with something, and kinda bummed because I feel like I could have gotten something more expensive. But, hey, its an upgrade on the incredible and I had heard about the 'maxx' conversion if I hated the battery life. edit: that's odd. It showed my NE2 discount as 50, but in the final checkout it shows the discount as 99.00. I guess it was the NE2 discount then. Still confused though.

I have the regular razr and have been hoping to find some oem backs/batteries for the maxx. Battery life is kind of egh but I'm usually at 60% by the time I get home from work. The ICS update is cool and I certainly hope that cm9 or aokp start supporting it or come out with official roms. I also noticed that after the ICS update, the bass output has been changed going through the audio jack.

Roundboy posted:there seems to be one place (that was linked earlier in the thread) selling the battery and new backings, but they have next to zero stock, and are always on backorder / preorder. TBH i downloaded the update myself instead of waiting for the OTA. It was hell, only because I used titanium backup and restored apps+data, which somehow caused some conflicts that completely disabled the lock screen and 3 of the four buttons. Other than that, following the instructions was easy as pie, just took some time to do, and some time to reconfigure to my liking. Even was able to flash a uot battery mod.

I have a droid razr and it is starting to suck. Battery could be better but the main thing that is really pissing me off is that messaging list takes a few seconds to update from the number to the name. There should be no lag in that at all. It should be loving immediate.

Anyone hear anything about JB getting to the OG Droid Razr? I remember signing up for the "we give you JB or you get rebate" but I haven't heard anything since the newer razrs getting soak tests. I'm kinda interested in that rebate now because my sim card/sim card slot is being an rear end in a top hat and I'm losing connectivity. Plus the battery kind of sucks.

chocolateTHUNDER posted:Personally I'd wait and take a look at the new Droid ULTRA's that are being released on August 20th. I am having such a horrible experience with my Droid Razr that I don't think I will ever get another Motorola product again. What makes it even worse is that it has a crack in the glass (doesn't affect screen), and that this is the last unlimited data phone I'll have. I was somehow getting over 4gb a month mostly just streaming google music on the 20 minute trip to and from work (and errands on weekends). I can't imagine how much it would be if I went back to public transit.

The Midniter posted:I have an iPhone 4 that is getting a bit long in the tooth. I'd like to upgrade to a 5 or even the upcoming rumored 5S when it becomes available, but I do not want to lose the unlimited data plan I am currently grandfathered into. Short of buying an unlocked phone for full retail value, is there anything I can do to keep my unlimited plan and still get the new (subsidized) phone? I don't even use that much data, it's mostly wifi at home - it's the peace of mind that I'm worried about. When I have to start worrying about limits is when my user experience begins to degrade. bam thwok's post a few above yours is the most concise explanation I've seen yet and I wish I could bookmark posts. If in the case you will lose unlimited and have no choice but to go tiered, I'd recommend checking the your account if you haven't already to see your usage. It only goes back 6 months, but hopefully in that time period you can recall why you needed more data than another month. I'm glad I checked. Even though I'm still unlimited for a little while, I found out that the 20 minute commute + random driving around time listening to google music took a huge chunk of data. Sure, I downloaded a few things/facebooked/etc. But I'd go over 6gb easy in a month.

My Droid Razr (xt912, not even Maxx) fell and screen shattered. I had to fall back to an old Droid Incredible. I think I can rough it till April, but are there any cheap JB phones for Verizon that I could look up on eBay or whatever?

JP Money posted:It just does so much poo poo better than my old Razr without feeling much different. So it isn't laggy at everything like the OG Razr? It was such a piece of poo poo that it really soured me on Motorola phones. If that's the case I might reconsider when my contract allows me to upgrade. The lag was so bad that it would take two or more seconds for the Swype keyboard to come up, the screen rotation took forever to sense and adjust, among other things.

EbolaIvory posted:I've been leaving my phone on off Wi-Fi for 12 hour shifts. It auto update all my apps, Skype and steam running and doing Facebook and awful on lunch. I've used a grand total of .462 GB. I'm on unlimited currently but seriously most normal people don't use a ton of data. Even my barely 18 and 19 year old sisters stay under 2 gigs (also on unlimited). If you use google music, and have at least a 30 minute commute, then you're going to be well over 4gb a month. Close to 6.

Is there anyway to keep unlimited if I upgrade through Amazon Wireless? My upgrade date is at the end of April, but I would like to have an upgraded phone by the time I go on vacation earlier in the month. I can upgrade up to two months early from Amazon, but I don't know if there's a way to keep unlimited. Am I just going to have to suck it up with a poo poo old droid incredible for the 17 hour drive and week worth of vacation?

Anyone with Verizon know how they price phones for the Moto X? I just asked for an early upgrade and the customer service rep said that since I'm using a 3g phone that I can get a $300 off an upgrade of full price of the phone. Now, I asked her how much the full price was for the moto X and she said $400, which means I'd have to spend $100. However, I went to VZW.com and was forced into the motomaker site where they say its $329 for a 16gb, and $379 for a 32gb. Which is more accurate? The Service Rep or the MotoMaker site?

Bah, this sucks. Customer service a few weeks ago told me that the $300 off full price for a smartphone would not touch unlimited. However, CS is now telling me that it will not only remove my unlimited, but a $30 upgrade fee as well since they are calling it an early upgrade. CS before that said that it wouldn't count as an early upgrade. Man, this is looking worse and worse. If my phone wasn't so close to dying, I'd just wait until after vacation. But I don't know if it will last. Doctor Butts fucked around with this message at 18:27 on Feb 20, 2014 |

I was about to pull the trigger on their new plan offering, but I don't know why their own site says I'd be paying more, even though my bill is more than what they say I'm paying now: Their New plan says $40 for my smartphone, $30 for my wife's regular phone, and 3gb data would be $50 a month, which would be 120 (after my company discount it would be $110). Sounds great, because if my wife updated to a smartphone, that would bring the price to about what I'm paying right now, which is $124 a month (includes taxes). So here's where I'm really worried: on their plan comparison, it's only saying I pay $81 a month for voice and data, but doesn't take into consideration how much I pay for my 6gb of data now. What I'm worried about is, are there other hidden charges that they aren't showing when they compare the two? Will my (supposed) $110 bill be something more like $130 or something? Edit: just figured out they arrived at 81.98 based on $62 dollar plan (80 - 18 for company discount) and two 9.99 lines. But still, why aren't they showing how much I currently pay for data to compare what I'm paying for now vs. in the future? Doctor Butts fucked around with this message at 02:20 on Feb 6, 2015 |

Hey, has anyone else dealt with this? I haven't had the problem but apparently it is affecting some people. Hundreds of Verizon customers are battling data over-limit fees: Money Matters quote:If you're getting hit by data over-limit charges, you might take comfort knowing you're not alone, no matter what Verizon tells you. And you may be encouraged by a couple of things: I've gotten a few answers this week. And I'm not done yet.

Is there any chance any Verizon rep might give me some leeway/reduced upgrade cost on a newer phone since the old one still had basic functionality until their support asked me to to do a full reset and now I can't even get past the setup? Yes, it is out of warranty and it can't be upgraded until February.
