when i'm not connected to the evdo network it's not a problem. it's only when it says evdo in the corner.

and who the hell had the bright idea to switch the name of brew to get it now anyway... "get it now" sounds stupid as stupid comes

Because CDMA is not a global technology like GSM. So, when Motorola for example designs a GSM phone, they can sell it all over the world market. When its CDMA, they can only sell it in North America, China, and Japan and S Korea

If the phone has to be replaced 3 times and fails again, you get a different yet equivalent phone. If you agree to sign a two year contract again you can get 25% off full retail pricing. Other than that, go to ebay.

Ohhhh I got one. I have that stupid feature where when someone calls me, they get this stupid classical music playing. I want to get rid of that. Here is the story for that.

-Ordered 3 phones
-Store said I needed to add features in order to get the price that I got
-$5 text, $5 text, ringback tone
-They accidently put ringback tones on all of the phone
-I bitched at them and they credit me $25
-I said whatever, but it still annoys me sometimes

Can i get rid of it without having the store know that I got rid of it? They said I cant get rid of it for 6 months.

Store lied to you!!! I cant believe they did that shit!! They didnt "accidently" put ringback tones on, thats impossible!! WTF! They did it to get thier data sales numbers higher. If you are hearing classical music, they didnt remove ringback tones.

What a bunch of fucks! Call customer service, ask for a supervisor, and tell your story. VZW will crush that store like a ton of bricks. We do fight internal fraud and customer abuse very diligently. Id be looking to score a free month or new phone out of this.

you're lucky most stores dont have public bathrooms

Verizon likes to pat itself on the back for hiring minorities even if they are shitty employees

long lines, cuz you'll wait.
