What cell phone you got??

[Backwoodz Tuner]

Figured I'd start a cell phone thread, where peeps can post what they rock and there opinions about it. As for me, I scored a new T-Mobile G-1 with google here a couple months ago. Its pretty cool. It's got web browsing, touchscreen, full key board, plays you tube and some other shit. Before that I had a Blackberry Curve, and that was probably my favorite of all time so far. So what's in your pocket??

[erik]

I'm envious.

I have a Blackberry Pearl, would like to upgrade to the Curve and down the line upgrade to the next Google phone to be released.

[sr4jcb7]

i have t mobile as well right now i have the rockr which is the mp3 phone but in the last eight months i have had the rizr, the wing, the dash, and the razr i always get bored and they are all t-mobile.

Before my curve I had a pearl. That was a good phone too.

It definitely takes the beating. I used to keep it in the leather pouch, then one time it fell out of the pouch while I was walking and it hit my foot and skid across the ground. Didn't scratch it too bad but, I cared less about it after that.

[JDMJonny]

Ive got the Voyager by LG. Its a pretty decent phone, pretty flashy and very functional. The only thing i dont like about it is the weakness of the internal screen, its really prone to "stress cracks" if you put too much pressure on it you crack the inside screen. As for it being the Iphone killer id say yeah it definetly is better for things like texting and the likes but when it comes down to checking stocks and surfing the web on your phone the Iphone wins hands down. Before this phone i had the ORIGINAL Razr, that thing was awsome! I had hacked/"tuned" every aspect of it for maximum usability.

Hell yeah there pretty duarable. One time I was fishin las summer and I went to jump on this rock and slipped and fell in the water and dunked my phone. It was only in the water for a secound or two. I took the battery out right afterwards. Let it dry by a heater for over night popped the battery back in that next morning and It worked good as new. The only thing that does suck about em is when the track ball gets dirty and don't respond.

motorola razr v3xx is my phone right now... last phone was original razr and my next will probably be the iphone... btw my razr is my current method for accessing the forum as i don't have internet

That's one of the best things bout phones these days, having internet access in your pocket.

[90LXCB7]

I have an HTC S621. Smart phone, keyboard, wireless internet. Great phone, as soon as I can figure out how to use it properly, I think it'd be more fun

I have a SLVR and I can't believe all the crap it can do. Ridiculous. Owbners manual is over 200 pages, in English. One thing it can't do? Block calls or users. I can't make Cricket stop texting me. I even called them to tell them to knock it off. Twice. I know the bill is due. It gets paid automatically! Then they text me to say I paid it. I KNOW! Then they text me to thank me for paying. Then 27 days later, they text me to say the bill will be due soon. Fuck!

I KNOW!

[block]... not an option.

[erik]

Yeah, T-mobile thanks me for my payment when I pay them. Usually an hour later I get a text. I only get a text that the bill is due if its over a month late. And, I am usually good about that.

[sr4jcb7]

those assholes usually send me the late text when the bill was due the day before and then promptly shut off my phone the next day...thanks guys

i have the motorolla ming (A1200). its touch screen, has linux based software, 2megapixel camera, full internet, fm radio, a dope ass business card reader, and a bunch of other crazy stuff. the phone is has never been sold here. only in asian countries. so its pretty JDM. the only shitty part about it is that there is no support over here for it. its an unlocked phone obviously and it doesnt let me get or send picture messages or video messages and i cant use the internet. the phone would be hella sick even being 2 years old if i could use its fully capabilities but i guess it works out for the best so i dont get pictures or video from ian. haha.

oh ya it looks pretty cool too...

[justin]

I'm thinking about upgrading to the behold or g1. I'm not sure yet so any input on both would be great

[erik]

Just wait for the G2

[2.5i]

I have a pretty ballin ass phone its very functional. It does everything full internet, gps nav, 12 mega pixel camera, video capture, paint, nintendo, playstation, xbox, weapon, flashlight, business card: reader, printer, and maker, adoble photoshop cs3, doubles up as a tow strap, it gets service everywhere no matter what. This phone also works on every network. I forget the name of it but heres the picture.

Lmfao! :-d

[justin]

I just upgraded phone that!!!

[ben_cb7]

hey just so you guys all know i work in the promotions dept at t-mobile telesales so if you guys ever want to add lines of service and you dont have a flexpay plan. PM me so i can get you the discount!!! also applies if someone is going to try and start new service with tmobile.

[silver_echo]

btw the ming was available in the us... when i worked at compusa we had it for sale...

[silver_echo]

btw the ming was available in the us... when i worked at compusa we had it for sale... also to open up the other functionality of the phone, go to spokane wireless and get it flashed with your carrier software...

[jon]

i already have 3 lines ben...i dont want anymore...can you get me a discount on a new phone?? :P


i just dont like how the g1 feels...a little bulky...i live how small the behold is. i dont really need a smartphone anymore i utilize mine by maybe 50%

[justin]

Crazy, every site I went too researching it said it wasn't over here and that it was in Asia only. I know that As of recent verizons put a phone out similar to it. I think it's just a more updated version of it compared to mine. But I've had mine for 2 years.

Going to Spokane to get a flash would be quite the trip, I'm on the west side of the mountains.

[silver_echo]

they probably have something like that over in seattle... it will probably be an independent place... or maybe if you call spokane wireless and ask if they know of a place in seattle

[justin]

Ya prolly I went to a couple tmobile kiosks and they were confused and lazy so I got turned away. I eventually said fuck it and deal. I'm looking to upgrade now too. But it's def a tough phone. It's last me over 2 years now.

[ben_cb7]

unfortunately the discounts i can give are only good for new lines (with new numbers). i cant help with upgrades. sorry.

Yeah my girl works for T-Mobile. that's how I got the hook up on phones. She works at the call center in Salem. I got the SHE-PAYS-PLAN, its a great plan! Lol!

[Domesticated]

blackberry edge, does everything but take videos. it is indestructable. i ran it over and dropped it numerous times and it is in perfect condition except the paint. the media is awsome, i had the cops stop and tell me to turn the music down when i was listening to it outside. the look on their face when i showed it was my phone was priceless. love the trackball. 8G memory card and street fighters II: champion edition. plus blackberry messenger is awsome. i want to upgrade to the new blackberry, not the touch storm, but the other 3G release, it doesnt get advertised that much

[EgDude]

what is the blackberry messenger? i have a blackberry pearl and i never figured it out lol

[EgDude]

o and by the way i really want the g1 just dont wanna pay that much lol

[erik]

what is the blackberry messenger? i have a blackberry pearl and i never figured it out lol

Same here. I tried and it didn't work so I was like, screw this.

[Domesticated]

anybody who has a blackberry, put their email adress in their contact info then you can add them to messenger and it works just like any messenger. its just like texting except you can conference on it with multiple people

LG LX150 (boeing phone not allowed to have camera phones)

[MetaEnder]

I've got a Blackberry Pearl, it's pretty old, but I haven't wanted to get a new phone because I'd end up getting a touch screen phone, and if you ask me....

The Pearl is the ULTIMATE texting device. Seriously. I've owned a lot of phones, and this one takes the bacon.

[pinksuby20]

I have the palm centro..

[eliteautosport.net]

[Jen_ForesterSTi]

[jon]

I wish T-Mobile carried them, cause I would really like one of them storms

heard rumorsm that verizon only has exclusive rights on the storm for 90 days...so for us t-mobile users that might mean we may get a version of the storm...

ben you got any info on the storm coming to tmobile?

[TiMoN]

does anyone have any opinions on the sprint instinct?

[Creepin]

HTC tilt, it has a few other names but thats what i use...

[Krolla]

does anyone have any opinions on the sprint instinct?

Its a pretty cool phone. Its soposed to be Samsungs answer to the iphone. Has a lot of features like the iphone except its a little thicker and has a smaller screen. the screen clicks though.



Im useing the Samsung Behold was useing the Blackberry Curve.

[polar bear Grant]

verizon env1 fuck the second gen

[polar bear Grant]

oh and about the instinct, i think its kinda a shitty phone my friend had it and good thing he had the warrenty because 2 days later it fucked up and had to get a new one and then he had to get a third one evantully, but it had some cool features

[pinksuby20]

does anyone have any opinions on the sprint instinct?

dustin has that one, he likes. I think its pretty cool..

[Ty]

I've got a 16GB iPhone, which is a POS phone, tbh. Can't run apps in the background, push system is rocky at best, push notification and copy and paste no where in sight.

Trying to trade it for a new BlackBerry Bold at the moment.

[Brian]

thought I'd revive this thread because I got a new phone.

Went from the BB Curve to the G1. Absolutely love it.

Looks awesome... I want a new phone.. but I have Verizon and I'm not really liking any of their new phones out?? :frown5:

[srtbrian]

I just sold my storm and got a Curve I LOVE it

[Tmo_BB6]

I'm on my third voyager =/ they're keyboard and gps are awesome. But that is about all they got goin for em.

[Bmer89]

I've got the new Chocolate 3. Nothing fancy at all, it has a camera and it can play music. My parents have the BB Storm, and they seem to have a bunch of issues for being new. But my dad bought a cover for his, and the back is molded like tire tread :D

[gustav129]

I have a Nokia 5300 mp3 phone, but since the Palm Pre is being released on June 6th, I'll probably switch to Sprint and get that. Rumor has it, the iPhone is going to Verizon soon too.

[gustav129]

Oh, and Sprint released the Instinct s30. It's an update to the problems of the original Instinct.

[Stang]

I got the white iphone 16gig

[90LXCB7]

I just got an LG Xenon, LOVE it!

[SW-21turbo]

I got the Samsung BlackJack I

[tevan]

I got an iPhone

[Northwestda]

I work for at&t so i have alot of phones, writing this at work on my Lg Vu. Im getting the Nokia E71x this week, cant wait.. I didnt know the palm pre was coming out that soon. Yeah Verizon will be getting the I phone when At&ts contract ends with apple.. Im not a big fan of the current I phone, to many issues with it. I hope the new i phone fixs them and then i will think about picking one up.

[SPR]

i just busted my sony ericsson w580i yesturday. Borrowed this POS blue slvr today. should have a sony ericsson 730a or something like that coming in the next couple days from insurance, and in 8 months when my contract is up, i think im gonna snag the samsung eternity.

[erik]

Nokia E71x is supposed to be a sexy phone yeah?

I have the G1, considering a new Curve.

[Brian]

Erik, do you have the data plan with the G1?

[erik]

Erik, do you have the data plan with the G1?

Its a must otherwise it doesn't work ;) But yes, I do, it costs $24 more per month. :cryin:

[Brian]

mine works and I don't have a data plan. The only thing that I noticed is that I can't get MMS messages.

[erik]

mine works and I don't have a data plan. The only thing that I noticed is that I can't get MMS messages.

You can place calls and stuff? I was told that you had to have the data plan in order to place calls etc..... :incazzato:

[Brian]

If I'm connected to WiFi I can even surf the internet.

The only thing that doesn't work is the MMS, but I'm trying to figure out a way around it.

[erik]

If you connect via WiFi can you download off the Android Market?

[Brian]

yeah. I've downloaded allot from there
