[Q] HTC One M8 from Sprint to Verizon???? topic

Folks, just a question here as I have contemplated switching phones, I have someone who has a almost new HTC One M8 from Sprint and they are wanting to sell it relatively cheap, I'm with Verizon using a Iphone 5S with sim card, is it possible to purchase the phone and stick my sim card into it and having it work on the Verizon network and get LTE?
I know they are both CDMA carriers but wasn't sure.
Thanks in advance for any answers.

How to use Verizon upgrade on Nexus 6? topic

I'm on a family More Everything plan with shared data on Verizon and I finally became eligible for an upgrade. I'd like to know how I could use the upgrade to get a N6. What I've heard is that some people are upgrading to an iPhone 6+ and then selling it, then buying a N6 at full price. But I don't understand the details of that. Wouldn't the iPhone be activated/used at that point? How would I sell it at a new phone price? Also, I heard that Verizon charges a fee if the new phone isn't activated within a certain period after purchase. Would that be a problem if I bought the iPhone first (and didn't activate/open it), resold it, then waited for a N6 to become available to buy?

Way to "block" Verizon updates? topic

Was wondering if there was a way to block all Verizon updates without root. I keep getting notifications to install the latest update (the one that gives Advanced Calling 1.0) but I don't want to install it in case it causes issues. Is there a way to remove/block this update feature without root? Thanks

Verizon Nexus 6 was "supposed" to be released today. topic

Spoke to an agent with Verizon randomly today because I was about 10 seconds away from getting out of my EDGE plan and have a competitor buy me out of a contract. I am patient but for the love of god give me something Verizon. This is ridiculous.

Anyway, long story short I happen to get myself a fanatic today. He had a lot more information than any other rep I have spoken to and I have had my fair share of run ins with these clowns. I figured I would give some love back to my community.

I took it for what it was........ Hopefully its true. Sorry for the poor quality, it does the trick though.

:highfive:

[Q] Any way to change APN while using the Verizon Sim Card? topic

I'm using the Turbo with Verizon but I want to change the APN so I can add the AdBlockPlus settings. However, the (+) button to add a new APN isn't there for me. Looks like I need to be using a different network to be able to edit the APB but I was wondering if there's any way to force the phone to use a custom APN (or to change the one that's tied to the SIM)

Thanks in advance.

[Q] Verizon question topic

Sorry if this has been asked.

Are there any benefits (discounts?) with Verizon if you "bring your own phone"? I want the Nexus 6 so I understand that at this point in time my only option to have this phone on Verizon is to buy from Moto, Google, or another source. However, in doing so, am I granted any kinds of discounts to help justify the upfront costs or just given the ability to have the Nexus 6 on Verizon and still pay my full /month smarth phone access fee?

Taking Sprint S4 to Verizon? Other Carriers? topic

Greetings, I can't seem to find a definite answer or guide to this. I have a sprint galaxy s4 and once my contract was up I was looking to get off sprint and onto another contract, looking at verizon as my friends happen with them. I know they both use cdma. If I have them unlock the phone, can it be brought over and used that easily? If not, what must I do? Custom root? Find a verizon s4 motherboard with clean esn? I'm willing to do it to not spend a few hundred bucks on a new phone. I'd liketo give it to my mother and get the s6 for myself when it comes out.

[Q] Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo help topic

I know nothing about any of this so bare with me guys/gals please. Just need help once and ill remove my account. If any of you feel like im wasting your time then please tell me and ill remove my post. Thankyou and i hope someone will give me an idea of whats going on.
Friends ex girlfriend is remotely accessing his phone from her computer, she can lock him out and write text out of format on the lock screen. She has deleted everything on his phone 8 times in the past hour. The Verizon recovery app has been disabled, we went into the Verizon store and changed EVERYTHING, number, passwords, made sure if she ever called in wanting info she couldn't get it. There is no way she figured out any of the passwords, she doesn't have access to any of his accounts, gmails facebook etc... i thought for sure she was using the recovery app but that's impossible cause no account has been created to access to his phone. Idk guys like i said im not an expert one thing that has me most skeptical she can write whatever she wants, whatever color, on his phone on any spot on the screen. Its completely out of set text formations on the lock screen looks like doodles i guess. Just curious if you guys have have ever heard of anything like this happening before. Thanks and i apologize if this shouldn't be here just on a desperate attempt to figure this out. Verizon is completely stumped they have no idea how she does it, even the main tech guy at the store (idk his credentials) cant figure it out.

Need feedback on Verizon phone topic

I've been with Verizon for many years, and grandfathered in to unlimited data. Love it.

Here's my dilemma... A few years ago I had the Galaxy S3, loved it. Moved on to the S4, hated it since it was so laggy. Ditched it for the '13 Moto X Dev Edition, had it since they came out. Got to the point where I needed something with better battery life and the screen started to get severe burn-in. Decided to try the iPhone 6 and 6+ a couple of weeks ago, both had horrible urine-yellow screen issues, took them back and got the Note 4. Well... I've been through three Note 4's due all having screen discolorations, one being pink at the top, the other two were darker on the right side of the screen and very warm on the left. Needless to say, I'm disappointed in Samsung since their screens were always awesome.

So... I'm still within my 14 day return period and need options on good phones. I'm looking for good battery life, something not terribly laggy, takes decent pictures and doesn't suffer from bad burn-in too soon, preferably LCD but will consider something AMOLED. I'm used to the Note 4's size already so I'm not picky on phone size. Expandable storage is also preferred but not a deal breaker as long as it's at least 32GB built-in.

If I can't figure something out, I'll have to grab a used phone from craigslist or something to hold me over until something better comes out. Please help me out guys, I'd really appreciate it!

[Q] Sprint nexus 6 on Verizon? topic

If Verizon, who has sent the N6 back in hopes to buy later when... topic

Not sure if this affect others but with Verizon not having the Advance Call 1.0 is becoming harder for me to live without... Plus I am on 3G only although there are some VZW N6 users who get LTE but I still don't think they can talk and use data together?

So coming from a wonderful rooted Note 3 on VZW, I am an IT Engineer and travel a lot for my job. With the Note 3, I

>> Travel and use device for GPS solely. But using other data phone activities while GPS is active
>> When traveling I need to answer support calls if a server goes down and this can be while driving using GPS. If so then I need voice, data & GPS
>> Long conference calls avg time 1 hr so to be able to use web, text, data while on a call is a need. Many times i am traveling not sitting at a desk need phone

I adore the N6 have it rooted and works well but today another day of travel I was using GPS but needed web to find product info, can't. Also recently was on a long business conf call and wife texted a urgent question but could not send a text back due to being on a bus call, etc. etc.. Same happened once when I was on GPS and text would not send...thought that was strange

I want to keep the phone but the need for production is weighing heavy on me and I did not realize how import LTE or I should say Advance Call 1.0 was important and needed for my day to day business & job

Any of you in this boat where the N6 is great but being early adopters is killing your need for voice and data both together?
My assumption this is a VZW only issue and not for other carriers they can do both together?
Has anyone refunded their N6 and just keeping a watch on how the N6 progress?

Hope soon VZW will add Advance Call for N6 or someone can cook it in a rom but curious of others thoughts who may be in a similar pinch?

Galaxy S4 I545 verizon - Not turning on topic

Merry Christmas.
My phone was at around 96%. Phone screen was OFF on my desk. Suddenly, phone screen comes ON. I press the power key to turn the phone screen off. It didn't work. I unlocked the phone and kept attempting to turn off the screen. The power key was unresponsive. I attempted to shut down the phone by long-pressing the button. Still no response. Took off the case, took out the battery. Put it back in. The phone vibrated and showed "Samsung" boot logo for about 5 seconds before shutting off while still loading. When plugged into the wall to charge, it shows the charging battery icon with a "refresh" icon inside the battery icon. It also shows for about 5 seconds before disappearing. I can't get it to show up as a USB connected device on my desktop.

What the hell happened? I have so much stuff on this Galaxy S4. I purchased it from Verizon in September 2013. I did NOTHING to it! It was literally sitting on my desk!

Oh and btw it was never rooted or anything. It ran the TouchWiz home and basically everything is unmodified. I just need my pictures back from the internal storage! I only have half my pictures on my micro SD.
