What kind of display does the Bionic have? Is it pentile?

I ran the numbers from the rumored Droid Prime specs (4.6 inches with a 720p) and it would be would be around 319. Which is pretty close to the iPhone 4.

I went to a store and played with a Bionic. I really can't tell the difference with the pentile except for a little fuzziness if I move my eye really close.

bull3964 posted:Yes, but currently android phones format the SD card as FAT32 which makes them incompatible with SDXC. A phone with a microSD card slot isn't like a camera with an SD card slot. You're not going to be swapping out cards on a phone more than once in a very long long time. waffle iron fucked around with this message at 03:41 on Nov 11, 2011 |

Just had to call up Verizon's phone support because when I had them switch up my texting plans in June they added a 25MB Caribbean/Europe data plan at $30 a month and I didn't notice. Thank god they gave me a credit for the 3 some months.

Cojawfee posted:Also, the thing about the non replaceable battery, there have been times with my droid where I have to remove the battery. The phone might freeze up for no reason where the lock button won't lock it, or won't unlock it and the phone is just totally unresponsive. So I have to rip out the batter just to get my phone back. Shouldn't happen, but sometimes it does.

kstatix posted:You can also add your discount via email by going to verizonwireless.com/getdiscount -- via this method, you register and receive a validation email in your work email inbox. Click the link in your work email inbox and follow the steps to complete the process. This method is typically easier and though I'm not 100% sure, I'm assuming the auditing process is automated as it doesn't actually require a human to verify any of the information. I'm a contractor for the government with a .gov work email address. I did that and it worked no problem. Although I'm pretty sure the government employee discount isn't the best possible one out there. 15 or 20 percent on main plan, 25 percent on accessories, nothing on phones.

tofes posted:It depends on a few factors. I found Verizon's 4G coverage to be unreliable (down nationwide 3 times in December when I was trying out a Rezound) and spotty, at least in my coverage area (even the Verizon rep at the store said 4G coverage sucks here, despite what their official map says). The Rezound also had a lot of trouble switching between the 4G and 3G radios and a software bug would sometimes render both inoperable until a reboot, something I have heard happens on other 4G phones too.

Penguissimo posted:I wasn't very clear in how I worded that—he'd probably still end up having to pay for the phone, but after you factor in the funds he'd get from flipping an iPhone 4, the final out-of-pocket cost would probably be equal to or less than the subsidized price would have been. I know the retail value can vary, but they're not all that different among newly-released phones, and this wouldn't be the kind of thing worth pursuing for a phone that had been out for awhile.

Verizon tech support says it's a software issue that Samsung is working on, but they don't have an estimated date. An Android 4.04 update has been found in the wild with new radios.

As a heads up, the Burlington, VT area has LTE turned on for the last 3 weeks. Not Sure how far down I-89 it extends but I've got signal from exit 17 to exit 12.

Much faster than the 3G I was getting inside so big podcasts download in under 10 seconds.

DrBouvenstein posted:I cannot believe VZW was this fast deploying LTE in VT. And it pisses me off! I work in the Burlington area and good god was it nice to have 4G at my desk to download podcasts. Although it allows me to do over 5 GB of data a month but that's OK because I have a grandfathered unlimited plan. My Nexus has been good although when they dialed back the 4G broadcast power a couple weeks ago I was getting into situations where it would go from 3 bars of 3G to one or less of 4G and then ping pong back and forth. Which wouldn't be so bad except the handoff time is really slow.
