• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Droid

Yes you can

I know theirs a company in the boston area that will sell you an ulocked phone i saw it on one of those news magazine shows i will google it and see what i find. :2thumbs:
 
All I have to say is that I LOVE my iPhone, but I HATE AT&T...

The Droid looks cool, but I think I'll stick with my 2G iPhone. She serves me just fine. :)

Or just google warlock wireless but read the artical so you understand you can buy an unlocked phone or you can send your phone to them and they will unlock it for you. So techincally you get buy an iphone from ebay or whatever then send it to them and they will put it on your current network. :clap::clap::clap:
Won't work on Verizon, different technology.
A new report from OTR Global relayed by AppleInsider indicates that Apple is planning on manufacturing new hybrid iPhones that will support both Verizon's CDMA2000 network as well as the UMTS 3G network. Only the UMTS network is supported by the current version of the iPhone and is used by AT&T and much of the rest of the world.Qualcomm's new hybrid CDMA/WCDMA chip offers the potential for a single, global iPhone that users can take to any major carrier, solving the network fractionalization problem. It also solves other issues that had served as roadblocks, including the issue of user confusion that would result from Apple selling separate CDMA and GSM/UMTS versions of the iPhone.
The reason behind building in such support would seem primarily to extend the iPhone's compatibility with Verizon in the U.S. The move is expected to take place by the 3rd quarter of 2010. Conveniently, AT&T's exclusivity contract with Apple is believed to expire in mid 2010.

The report also indicates the new model's screen will also shrink in size from 3.5" to 2.8" diagonally. Curiously, this is not the first time the possibility of a 2.8" iPhone has emerged with iLounge previously publishing photos of 2.8" screens that were believed to be for use in future Apple devices.
 
Of coarse

There always has to be one who does not play well with the others. I will admit that i do have verizon and the coverage is very good but i just upgraded my phone to the razr 3 in the spring had it for about a month then i wished i went with a blackberry cause i find my self texting more often. so now i'am looking at the droid cause it looks cool and i like the qwerty keypad. :clap:
 
COOL! Our Sprint contract will be up in Nov 2010!!!!
I tried canceling over the weekend w/out having to pay the ETF but it didn't work.

Sprint has 2 Android based phones right now. The HTC Hero and the Samsung Moment. Should have basically the same functionality as the Droid.
 
Got a great corporate deal at work today but hdx and I talked - we are gonna wait - supposedly they are going to a 2.0 android platform version after the holidays and I also saw that even more phones might be coming out - saw some HTC Tattoo phone. Seems like that happened last year w/ our phones - got them around Thanksgiving and then right around Christmas more phones came out. So we're gonna wait and see.
 
We're saying bye bye SPRINT tonight! Going to get the Droid. Christmas came early and I get a corporate discount which will help a little.

Switch your iPhone to another network

You don't have to pay extra for a unlocked iPhone. You can do it yourself.

http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/128573459/ultras-now

This is the unlock (allows other carriers) tool.

You need to first Jailbreak (removes Apple restrictions for installing software and provides alternate app stores with real cool apps).

Jailbreak app - http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/126908912/redsn0w-in-june

My company pays for my AT&T so I do not use Ultrasn0w. I do use Redsn0w to jailbreak. I know others geeks that use Ultrasn0w.

Tips for jailbreak and unlocking - Read a lot of blogs, look for guides on google using the product names, and review interoperability with carriers before you do anything. The reckless will pay.

Jailbreaking is pretty easy and takes about 10 minutes to do. You should however spend several hours studying before you try it to make sure you know what you are doing. My stock iPhone was crap compared to the mobile monster i have now.

Tip after jailbreaking - fight the urge to load 100's of the black market apps on the first day, same concept as installing multiple parts on your bike. If you have a problem you will never know where to look.

Recommended jailbreak apps - Winterboard (themes), Categories (folders in your iphone), Cycorder (camcorder for 2G & 3G phones), CallMe(photo speed dial buttons), AptBackup (backup phone applications), BossPrefs (cool and easy control panel, plus all kinds of great options)

I have been jailbreaking since I got my phone in June 2008. if you follow my tips, you will avoid the trouble I ran into and have a great experience:doorag:.
 
Yep...iPhone Rocks...but

AT&T sucks... For example, I live in SW Florida, only a few miles from One of the most traveled interstates in the country, I75. Only a few miles from here, Alligator Alley, there is a 10 mile gap in AT&T coverage...look at their map.. they know it. That's just one example. I could go on...and on..and on...
i heard the same from a verizon support guy ,,,,, i will wait every time i buy the newest phone it sucks after a week ...the iphone is the only one that still rocks...
 
I love my Droid, but really miss voice dialing. I think it will be a software upgrade soon. Many people on the Droid forum have been discussing it
 
I love my Droid too - I was posting on here from my Droid yesterday. It does EVERYTHING. I love all the fun apps I can download. It just as much if not more than a computer. Plus I don't listen to satellite radio anymore - I prefer Pandora in my car - comes in nice!

And I got some funny apps - all for free!
 
- I prefer Pandora in my car - comes in nice!

I use pandora on my spyder.:2thumbs: It rocks or countrys or hip hops or clacials it dose it all
 
Yep - got all my custom stations - no more cr@p music or any dj talk. Now how do you use it w/ your Spyder? You keep it running to speakers in your helmet?
