Family plan. I pay about $ 115 a month for 3 lines, with insurance on all lines, and 5GB of '4G' but really HSPA+ speed.

As much as I would love to move to Verizon for LTE, can't justify those prices.

I'm not too big on the One S either, so I'll stick with my Sensation which is a great phone!

really, are you grandfather into that price, because I looked at Tmobile and they arent offering anything like that?

So I just upgraded my phone yesterday from a Pantech Link to a HTC Inspire or just $0.01. I found out it is a year old phone, but it still looks pretty awesome and seems like a better choice than a 8gb Iphone 3gs. Did I make the right choice?

What do I need to know about Android phones, apps I need, and other stuff that could be helpful?

Come to an android thread and ask that and I'm sure you'll get a resounding "YES!"

So much to know it's hard to narrow it down. Basically on Android you can customize the appearance of your phone to your hearts desire or but I'd probably leave it stock till you get a grasp of what you like about the phone and what you don't.

As far as browsing OS, the tapatalk app is awesome. It allows you to subscribe to forums and get super fast access to them by cutting all the clutter that is associated with doing it on a web browser.

Speaking of browsers, after you play with the stock browser a little, look into Dolphin or Boat Browser.

Check here for some other apps I recommended a few months back http://www.operationsports.com/forum...post2043296640

Also, download the amazon app store app. They have a free app of the day that are hit or miss, mostly miss, but sometimes they can have a real gem.

That's some great info, thanks Mabster.

You're welcome, it should get you started at least.
When you get some more specific questions fire away.

Hey Slab, how you liking the LTEvo? I'll be finally getting mine on Tuesday and I'm looking forward to it.

Samsung announced late last night the Galaxy SIII will launch on 5 carriers this month. I'm thinking more along the lines of the end of June. It was launched in Europe 5/30. Sprint already has scheduled an even 6/12.

I don't need a new phone, my HTC Senny is perfect, but that S3 looks amazing.

I also like the blue that they went with.

The SIII does look good, but in reality, when you compare it to the SII, its a processor update and a bit better screen, I mean the SII is still a champ, I don't think its worth the hoopla and a big huge upgrade. The SII is still one of the number one selling phones and I think It will continue.


Quick question is anyone know, When sprint switches fully over to there 4G LTE, what then does the regular 4G phones then run on?

Same as now. HSPA+.

Some of the Samsung's new features are very nice though. I'll wait on the reviews.

So HSPA+ will remain even when they switch to Full 4G LTE?
