At the end of my 4G rope

   I have a long
track-record of getting “lemons” when it comes to Verizon phones.  However, my thunderbolt….is pushing me to my
limits. 
My phone goes from 4G to 3G to 1X…to no service…constantly!  I feel like I am always restarting my phone
in hope to “get connected to America’s most dependable network.”
My phone freezes, hangs up on people, refuses to let me
answer phone calls, and I feel like I spend more time factory resetting my
phone, restarting my phone, locking my phone and all in an attempt to get my
phone to live up with the massive media flood that Verizon advertized with the
Thunderbolt.
I have called customer support…spent hours on the phone…but
I feel like I fix the small problems…only to get another one.  However, the biggest problem for me is the 4G
unreliability and the affect it has on my mobile hotspot, which is very
problematic because I use the hotspot for my schoolwork.

SAME HERE!! I thought 4G was 4G.  I have come to realize that all of the kinks were not worked out with Verizon ungrading to 4G.  I ordered the iPhone to see how it would work with Verizon's service.  ABSOLUTELY terrible!
At the end of my contract, I WILL be switching over to AT&T.  I have been with Verizon for almost ten years and the service has yet to change.  The representatives get more and more under-trained.  At least with AT&T I know I will get my monies worth.  I have called and just simply talked to there representatives about switching and have had no problems.
Not to mention, I control all of my elderly family members phone accounts (and they have AT&T), I have yet to have an issue with the representatives when I call and ask a technical question.
Verizon is making too much money and not applying it where it really needs to be....RELIABLE SERVICE...scratch dependable!!

  • 6.0.5.20, at the end of my rope

    I installed 6.0.5.20 and it has not allowed my 5G or Nano to connect to iTunes. All I get is the message: "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not istalled correctly. Please reistall iTunes to install the iPod's software."
    I've tried reinstalling it. I've tried removing and reinstalling it, I've tried the McAfee firewall (it has full access to iTunes), I've tried the Quicktime standalone install, I've tried the MSCONFIG setting, I've tried removing iPod updater 2006-28-06, I've tried sending an e-mail to Apple. I can't restore my iPod, because now I get an "iPod service error" when I try to run any updater, new or old. Absolutely nothing has worked.
    Does anyone have any ideas? I'm at the end of my rope with this.

    Ok, I solved my problem. Here's what I did: I went through all the steps in the article linked above and nothing seemed to work. Part of those steps has you remove iPod stuff from your computer. I would follow the steps for "Removing iTunes." From what I could figure out, it was the iPodService.exe that was causing my problem because it would never show up under the "Processes" menu in the Task Manager. I downloaded version 6.0.4 from oldapps.com. Then I reloaded my iPod software from the CD that came in the box, my Nano had iPod update 3-26-06 on it. When I opened iTunes, everything worked fine. My God it took forever to get that done. I've been working on this for a week.

  • Do you have any ideas why Motion 5 would run slow on a computer? I have an Imac with 8Gigs of ram, and plenty of hard drive space, but it still gives me the beach ball when I add a few lights and effects. I'm at the end of my rope.

    You probably don't really need 1080 at 60 for your finished projects but since you're just starting out with Motion, you need to lower your expectations. A long way. 1080 is about 2 million pixels per frame, DV is only about 400,000. That's not just five times as many pixels for the Mac to track; everything in video is exponential.
    Explore the training tutorials available by Mark Spencer. You will get an idea of how his super powerful machine reacts with the software.
    Adding a light roughly doubles the processing time over flat scenes. Two lights increases processing again. Reflections require processing the lights and then calculating the reflections so add another quarter of the time required for flat scenes. Add camera movement, motion blur, and depth of field and you need exponentially more processing time for every frame. The preload of renders into RAM is one of the cooler features of Motion, as comapred to After Effects, but that takes tons of time, to.
    Try working in ye olde DV resolution for a few days. Get to know the software's limitations and what gets imposed by your Macintosh. Step up to 720p/30 and see how things slow down.

  • At the end of my rope with recent upgrade

    I just bought the recent upgrade it's 2.0.1. Anyways before I bought it and updated my ipod everything worked perfect. My favorite thing to do was sit outside on the ipod surfing the net. Well now that I updated it I can not get online. I can connect to my wifi which works no problem as I am on a computer right now using wifi but I can not access the net, youtube, itunes anything at all. If I am lucky I can load apple.com or gmail.com but that is it. If I click on a link it will not load another page. I have googled like no tomorrow to fix this and nothing has worked. Here is what I have tried.
    - Reset by holding down home and power
    - Taking off all applications I had downloaded and doing a complete restore putting the ipod back to factory settings and then syncing minus the apps as the apps and the 2.0.1 is the only things new on my ipod.
    - I have tried messing with the settings under the connection on the ipod as suggested in some sites I found.
    - I have tried changing my secruity settings on the modem, unplugged modem and reset modem even though modem has nothing to do with it since I still get online on my computer.
    - I have tried forgetting network and refinding it, I have also tried renewing it.
    I am so fed up. I want whatever was on it before 2.0.1 back since I could get on the internet then. I bought the ipod back in december so support will do nothing for me if I called them.
    Please Help!! I am ready to throw the thing out the window.

    I understand that you are trying to help. I came to realize that it must be a sig or something that automatically attaches at the end as it is no longer in more of the thread it is always at the bottom of the thread. I am so fed up with this stupid thing. I have tried everything it seems and everything mentioned in this thread. I got the IPod beside me to try each new suggestion. I can't go to an apple store as we do not have one here. I am ready to call apple and force them to deal with this in the morning. I got enough on plate I don't need this added stress even as minor as it is in the big picture.

    It is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.

  • At the end of my IMovie I want to write some text: as in" Happy Birthday Mandy we had a great time with you. etc..  How do I go about this? Which icon in IMovie lets me have a place to write text?? help please

    You can choose a background for the text from Maps and Backgrounds.  Just drag a background to the end of the timeline, adjust to desired duration then drag title above it.

  • How do I add a widget to give a review or star rating for a book at the end of a book in iBooks Author?

    How do I add a widget to give a review or star rating for a book at the end of a book in iBooks Author? You know, how you buy books on iBooks and when you're finished reading it, there's a place where you can give a rating or review right there on the very last page?

    Just supply a link that says 'Review This Book' - use http://itunes.apple.com/linkmaker/ to generate one.

  • How to add a sub report at the end of the main report whilst grouped

    Hi!
    I have a main report that is grouped by the Customers name and then details of transactions they did with the company.
    I need to add a letter at the end of each group for each customer (With their name displayed in the letter). I tried adding a sub report in the report footer, but it only appears once at the end of the report, rather than at the end of each group for each customer.
    How can I achieve the desired result?
    Regards
    Vik

    Vik,
    You are on the right track with the sub-report.
    1. Create your letter in a separate report.
    2. Add the Letter Report to your original report as a sub report in the group footer.
    3. Set the report links on the "Group By" field.
    This will give you a letter record for each report record with the same grouping as the main report.
    Hope this helps,
    Jason

  • Is it possible to export to PDF without a Return character at the end of every line?

    I am the author of a book whose first edition has been typeset and extensively amended in InDesign.  I now need to rewrite the first edition to produce a second edition.
    When I copy-and-paste from the PDF with which the publisher has supplied me into MS Word, I get a Return character at the end of every line, which means that text doesn’t automatically wrap and sentences are fragmented so that I get spurious grammar errors.
    I know that not all PDF files have a Return at the end of every line.  Is it possible to restrict Returns to the end of paragraphs when exporting from InDesign to PDF?  If so, what should the publisher be asking the typesetter to do?

    Thanks for your lightning-swift and helpful replies, Mike & Ellis.
    I don't have InDesign myself, so I know hardly anything about how it's used.  I'm just trying to research what an internationally-known publisher should already know how to do, but apparently doesn't!
    Following your suggestion, Mike, I have downloaded the trial version of Acrobat and exported the PDF to a Word file.  This has been moderately successful as there are far fewer spurious Return characters, just a few that I suspect may be hangovers from the typesetter having introduced soft returns in ID.
    As you've suggested Peter and Ellis, I'll suggest that the publisher asks the typesettter to export from ID to RTF and Text to see if that's even better.

  • I have the adobe cloud 9.99/ month photography package i downloaded lightroom 5.4, it told me it was a trial version, and i'm now at the end of the trial and it won't let me download the full version and i don't have a serial number

    i have the adobe cloud 9.99/ month photography package i downloaded lightroom 5.4, it told me it was a trial version, and i'm now at the end of the trial and it won't let me download the full version and i don't have a serial number. also, when i click buy, i get an error message saying, "application not found."

    There are two different LR’s, one with a serial-number licensing and one with a CC-signin license.
    You should uninstall the serial-number LR you have installed, then
    Quit the CC Desktop application,
    Restart the CC Desktop application—this will rescan what you have installed and not see LR,
    LR will now be on the CC Desktiop apps list, so install that.

  • I have an Iad2 and ever since ios6-there are issues.I get occasional lock-ups and have to reboot. The WSJ app freezes when running their videos to the end. The only work-around is to stop the video before it's over. Worse than windows me !!!!!

    My Ipad2 worked perfectly before ios6 upgrade. It now freezes occasionally and I have to reboot to get it to work. Also the WSJ app will now freeze if I try and run one of their videos that is imbedded in the article. My only work-around is to stop (press done) before the end of the video or I have to do a total reboot. The problems remind me of Windows ME . Will Apple resolve these issues or become more like Microsoft. Hopefully there will be a restore button in the future like Microsoft was forced to do because a lot of upgrades are just terrible. Am I crazy or are there other people having the same issues with ios6, or could this just be a coincidence and my ipad2 is starting to fail just when ios6 arrives ?

    I know this will not help but, the bluetooth headset I purchased for my wife works great and it pairs with our car and our sound bar in the livingroom (Motorola Droid Razr) 98.72.16.XT912.Verizon.en.US
    However I did not upgrade over the air but from a android web site and placed it on my external sd card. I believe this made the difference in why we had no issues and upgraded functionality has been great.
    Please note when I mention these bluetooth devices I mean the Razr connects with no problems.
    It also had no internet issues and none of the problems others have complained about in other threads.
    unfortunately when you say thousands have these issues I cannot say that is accurate. The hope is when large numbers of owners have updated to the Jelly Bean and are complaining inmase then Motorola will issue a patch to verizon to get out to the affected users.
    Of course now that Google owns Motorola Mobility and has laid off loads of workers it may never issue an os patch.

  • Row getting added in the end of the scroll

    Hi -
    I am using a scroll area on a page on level 1. The issue iam encountering is that when ever i click the plus sign to add a second or third row (assume one record already exists in scroll 1) , the row gets added in the end of the scroll and also the fields are blank. However as delievered the new row should get added on the top of the scroll meaning 1 of 2 not 2 of 2, and also it should carry forward the values from the prior row. Please any suggestion or help is greatly appreciated.

    I figured it out. The reason it was happening was because, my scroll record had another key field after EFFDT and EFFSEQ, due to which the delivered copy forward logic for new rows in scroll did not work and the row was getting added in the end or after the first blank row always.

  • How to find a line/edge that starts at the same point as the end of another

    I have an edges table of Lat/Lon data and for a specific edge I want to find any other edges that have the same start point as the end point of the given edge.
    I tried the following query:
    select geo_street_id from geo_street s2
    where SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_START_PT(s2.geom) =
    (select SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_END_PT(s.geom) as geom from geo_street s
    where geo_street_id = 122978214)
    but it gets the following error:
    ORA-22901: cannot compare nested table or VARRAY or LOB attributes of an object type
    Any Ideas?

    1. to compare geometry to be equal you should use appropriate function (SDO_GEOM.RELATE http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B14255_01/sdo_objgeom.htm#sthref1561) or operators (sdo_relate http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B14255_01/sdo_operat.htm#i78531) with specific mask EQUAL.
    2. to filter down the resultset in first place you can use the operator SDO_RELATE with mask TOUCH as this will return already the set of lines sharing endpoints, but will also include lines touching eachother not at endpoints (endpoint intersecting the otherone's interior)
    something like
    select geo_street_id from geo_street s2, geo_street s
    where
    s.geo_street_id = 122978214
    AND
    sdo_relate(s2.geom, s.geom,'mask=touch') = 'TRUE'
    AND
    sdo_geom.relate(SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_START_PT(s2.geom),
    'EQUAL',
    SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_END_PT(s.geom),0.005)='EQUAL'
    3. if you would do this for the full table, an SDO_JOIN (http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B14255_01/sdo_operat.htm#BGEDJIBF) might be more appropriate.
    4. you might also consider 4 cases:
    start = start
    start = end
    end = start
    end = end
    5. alternative would be to take only the endpoints of your selected geometry and perform a touch with the edges. using the sdo_util.APPEND on the startpoint en endpoint of your geometry will return a multipoint. although there might some specific cases that this would not return respected result I think
    something like:
    select geo_street_id from geo_street s2, geo_street s
    where
    s.geo_street_id = 122978214
    AND
    sdo_relate(s2.geom,
    SDO_UTIL.APPEND(
    SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_START_PT(s.geom),
    SDO_LRS.GEOM_SEGMENT_END_PT(s.geom)
    ,'mask=touch') = 'TRUE'
    Let us know how it works.
