Kudos to the best phone company in America

I had Verizon for 9 years and have recently moved to an area without Verizon. I don't feel the need to disparage other companies but the area service providers are terrible. For those of you complaining about Verizon, you should try anything else. I am not a plant, I run a home business. I have been without phone for 3 weeks trying to get set up with internet and phone. It is a travesty. Verizon was always reachable and their workers are much better trained that what i have encountered recently. Thank you for 9 great years of service.

Thank you for your kind words! I'm sorry we don't have service in your new location, but if you ever move back to an area where we serve we'll welcome you back with open arms! Best of luck to you!

The best expense app for the best phone?

Hi guys,
I still haven't gotten an iPhone because I use Palm and I can't be without PocketQuicken (Not a palm app, rather a 3rd. party app) it takes care of all of my expenses on the road and then syncs them with Quicken on my Mac, I get to know in real time anywhere how much money I have or how much credit I still have on a credit card, it can also keep my monthly budget. It's ideal for traveling business men or for people who like to know where there money is or has gone to.
Please Apple, invite the people at http://www.landware.com/pocketquicken/ to make an internal app for the iPhone, so that the best phone would have the best expense program out there. Thus giving something very useful to the iphone users. It's the only thing stopping me from getting an iPhone. I have many, believe me! many 3rd. party apps in my Treo, but the only one that I can't live without is this one. Please consider it. Thanks!

Something that I left out is that it can also be a standalone app no need to have quicken in the Mac, it can fully do the expenses and much more on it's own. And the best part is that it wouldn't interfere with any of the phone's features, like WiFi or anything like that so no harm would come from making it an internal app.

THe BEST phone I ever had....Nokia 1100 - Nokia, p...

I have just had to pay SILLY money for a Nokia 1100 - the BEST phone I ever had. PLEASE, Nokia, re-release this excellent phone....for me, what's done is done, but, please make this phone available for others...I cannot reccomend the Nokia 1100 HIGHLY ENOUGH. The fact that people are now sheling out £££ speaks vulumes....
Here is my Amazon review for this EXCELLENT phone....
"I am someone who likes things exactly so. For a lot of things, basic doesn't do it for me.
For example, I won't use anything but the highly customisable Firefox (with Adblock Plus, Noscript, Stylish and Social Fixer add-ons), to get the web just the way I want.
You know what? As far as mobiles go, this IS just the way I want already.
Here are the reasons...
* Simple and easy to use
* Old style monochrome viewer, with a backlight, which means that, unlike basically every other phone on the market, whatever the time of day...indoors, outdoors, day, night, the display is always - ALWAYS easy to read.
* It has a 'Loud' profile. As someone who is slightly hard of hearing, this means that I absolutely always hear when someone rings me or texts me.
* Unlike a lot of other phones, the alarm clock is loud enough to actualy wake me up.
* Rounded keys...meaning that I don't struggle to type someone's number.
* Durable. I have had this model for over 5 years, in that time, it's been on the roof of a car that's driven off, falen on concrete from 10 foot, been with me when I've fallen over drunk countless times, and who knows what else...and it still works perfectly.
* Long battery life. I only have to charge it once every 12-14 days.
* It's basic, so won't get nicked. It's fallen out of my pocket in pubs, clubs and at a party, and I've always had it back.
Three times, I have 'upgraded' when I've been flush, and three times, I've come back to my trusty Nokia 1100.
I cannot rate this phone highly enough. Shame on Nokia for discontinuing it..."

As far as what people want from phones nowadays is concerned...I accept that, but, there are plenty f us out there who want a phone to be - A PHONE - it's not rocket science. I spand ages online - but, through my PC - where I can see hings properly, and with Firefox add-ons, Adblock Plus and Noscript, I'm safer than safe, and don't get to see any capitalist rubbish. Also, the fact that prices for the Nokia 1100 are rising, and rising rapidly...that, to me, suggests something...myself, I've bought a second one just as a backup...my first one lasted me well over a decade before I lost it...so, I reckon these wil last me well into my life...

Makes me wonder if I picked the right phone company

I have been a dedicated Verizon Wireless customer for about 3 years now. Couple months ago I renewed my contract for another 2 years. I was really excited about getting a new device which would give me more options of doing things online and being able to enjoy the convenience of the 4G speed. Screen protection, double cover for the phone, hands-free - I got it all! Everything was great until a few days ago my phone simply shut down on me. Of course the first thing I decided to do was to call customer care. A representative was trying to help me fix the problem but nothing would work. So I went to a Verizon store and asked them to trouble shoot the device. It turned out that my almost brand new phone was not in a condition to ever work again. So I was told by a customer representative at the store that they were going to order a replacement device for me and I was supposed to get it over night. We are all very busy people and those of us who are lucky enough to have devices that help us bank online from our phones, check emails and set up tasks and meetings on everyday basis would understand the frustration of not being able to perform everyday tasks because the phone you relied on is broken. Since there`s no such thing as a loaner phone any more, I was sent on my way without being able to communicate. I travel a lot between two states - working in one, living in the other. The thought of being on the road and simply not being able to even make a phone call in case of an emergency is pretty terrifying (don`t you think?). I placed quite a few phone calls to customer service to see when my phone was going to be delivered to the house. Unfortunately the lady on the other end of the line told me she couldn`t locate my tracking number and probably it has not been processed yet. She asked me to call back first thing next morning. My simple question was: From what phone do you want me to call you back? Pretty reasonable question actually! It felt like we were just running in circles. That night I managed to find one of my old devices which happened to work, so in the morning I could activate it and be able to place phone calls and check my emails. As I made it back to the Verizon store the next morning and asked a gentleman who was helping me about the tracking number and delivery time, I was shocked to hear that my phone was not going to make it to place of my residency that day. Matter of fact he told me it was going to take 3-5 business days and the phone has not even been shipped yet! I was speechless. One person tells me overnight, another one tells me 3 to 5 business days.. I understand there`s certain policies and procedures but they could have at least stuck to the same story! I asked to change the delivery address so it would have been easier for me to get the package (like I said I run between two states all the time). The answer I received was No, we cannot do that. I asked them to just activate my old phone and headed out for an appointment. I was not thrilled with the way it all has been handled but I decided to let it go. Little did I know, that was not the end of that problem. I called the Verizon customer care once again with the same questions: what is my tracking number and when is the device going to be delivered. Still could not get an answer for any of those questions. The lady on the phone told me that I would get a call back when they finally get the information I`m acquiring. Well let`s put it this way, I would have still been waiting for that phone call, if I did not call them back two days later. Finally I got that "magic" box with my replaced Motorola Razor. Feeling relief and excitement I went back to the store to get my phone set up again. Sales clerk asked me if I had a Sims card for it. I told him that there`s one in my old phone. He explained to me that it was not going to be working. Can you imagine the expression on my face as he was telling me all that?! All I could think about was how they could not have ordered another Sims card if they knew the old one was not good any longer. The sales clerk offered to order one for me with an overnight shipment. I said: just like my phone being shipped over night and it took like 4 days??!! So he said that they had cards in the store that I could buy. And I did simply because I needed my phone back ASAP. I never knew that the warranty covers only the phone, but not its parts! It`s like buying a brand new vehicle off the lot with no gas in it!! Ridiculous was the word of that moment. So now I`m wondering if I made the right choice when I picked Verizon as my cell phone company. After all I can take my $100/month bill somewhere else. If that`s how clients are appreciated by the company, I don`t feel like I need to keep my service with Verizon or for that matter refer any of my friends, family members and customers to Verizon.

Or were you referring to the one in the old temporary replacement device? Would that even be compatible with the newer phones?
The one that wasn't working had a 4G LTE SIM card in it. It should have usable in the replacement Razr. It was only until I read the OP a third time this morning that there might be a third device involved. It would be nice if people would give more specifics on what devices are active at what time. Then the readers of this community can follow the progression of the events better.

What's the best phone app to use on iPad for uk users to make calls with

I know there's a few apps out there to use and make phone calls with, but which is the best one for uk users/callers.
I would prefer not to use Skype but if that's the best on the market, that's what I will use.
As you can probably guess I'm new to the iPad, so all the help I get is appreciated loads.

Cheers for that, looks like I will have to use Skype then. Unless someone else comes up with an answer.

What is the best Harddrive company to install into my 2008 Macbook, Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Samsung?

The HDD in my 2008 MacBook just failed on me, and the Genius' at the store said I just need to purchase and install a new HDD and they will install Mac OS X for me for free. I was looking around and I found a few HDD but I'm not familar with Mac HDD I dont know if there is a specific company that i NEED to use, or if i can install any HDD fom any company. Obviously i know i need a 2.5" Form Factor HDD with SATA 3.0/Gbps but which company should i purchase....
Seagte
Hitachi
Western Digital
Samsung
All ive found decent sized HDD at very reasonable prices.
Thank you for your responses

If you search through all the Mac forums on the internet you'll find that people say "Never put a (Insert name of company here) hard drive in your MacBook, only put a (Insert name of company here) drive in."
That's because every company makes drives that can fail quickly and drives that can go forever. They all try the best that they can to make a good drive.
Go with the one that has the best warranty for the price.

Is the Fascinate the best phone on Verizon now that it has 2.2

Just saying? let me know what you guys think.....

No LED notifications

I consider a 4" screen the max for something you still want to call a phone, it is light yet sturdy, well shaped and designed. The company that makes it, I consider worthless in the customer support area, so you need to learn to help yourself.
That is my opinion without letting my personal disappointments cloud my judgement.
Pretty much the way I feel too. This phone is much more "finished" than my last phone (Samsung Omnia) so the need for TLC from Samsung is considerably less, thank goodness.
I did find a rather decent work-around for the lack of an LED notification. Try the NoLED app. I actually prefer it to a simple LED because it is customizeable for differnt types of notifications (SMS, missed call, etc...)

I dunno about you guys... but this is the best phone I've ever had.

Yeah, 4G isnt always there. But, this phone is BLAZING fast. I've had maybe 5 stutters of lag in the last week or so that i've had it. Coming from a Droid Incredible, this is a godsend.
I had to set Force GPU Rendering and Window and Transition Animation Scale to 0.5x, and thats all this phone needed.
Honestly, here are the improvements I'd ask for, but these ARE NOT complaints; these are things that I'm happy without and even happier with:
1. Camera: same as Nexus, but make it 8MP as well as a bit higher quality
2. Give us the option for a fixed menu button (like the on screen home button -- just leave a menu button right there in the bottom right corner).
3. Give us the ability to create shortcuts to any setting and application (IE, i want to be able to jump directly to Developer Options, or I want to have a shortcut for Voice Search on the bottom of my screen.)
and LASTLY
4. MAKE A 3D phone LIKE THE EVO 3D!!
But, HONESTLY verizon, you did a good job in my book on this one. And the customer service was phenomenal, rep named Steven helped me. I couldn't be happier right now with this phone. Keep trying to do things with the customer in mind
Sincerely,
Mr. Happy Customer for once.

for me, 5mp is good enough. If I want to take a picture for a portrait, I will get my DSLR out
2. Give us the option for a fixed menu button (like the on screen home button -- just leave a menu button right there in the bottom right corner).
This is an app issue. Apps that have not been compiled with ICS API installed (Most of the apps), the menu button will jump around, but for Google apps that are preinstalled, the menu is in its proper place. There are a couple of exceptions, where the Google app has a menu in a different spot that the other apps. At times it can be frustrating since you do not have it in the sameplace for everything, but I am starting to like the 'no hardware button' concept with ICS.
3. Give us the ability to create shortcuts to any setting and application (IE, i want to be able to jump directly to Developer Options, or I want to have a shortcut for Voice Search on the bottom of my screen.)
There is a shortcut to settings in the notification bar. Press on the settings icon looking thing, and it will bring you to the settings menu. Not as nice as a shortcut to the specific setting, but this allows you not to take up home screen real estate with a shortcut to settings.
and LASTLY
4. MAKE A 3D phone LIKE THE EVO 3D!!
Not a feature that I would want personally, but that is nice about Android..... different strokes for different folks, unlike Apple where everyone has to have the same hardware.
But, HONESTLY verizon, you did a good job in my book on this one. And the customer service was phenomenal, rep named Steven helped me. I couldn't be happier right now with this phone. Keep trying to do things with the customer in mind

You are right.... this is a good phone. I came from the Droid X world, and having a phone without blur is simply great. Apps run much better, less problems with apps and it works good for me. One thing I noticed, I have an app I use when driving, which gives me my speed, direction, and the temp of where I am currently located. On the X, sometimes it took up to three minutes for the GPS to start working. With the Nexus, the GPS is working with 20-30 seconds.

Why cant apple remove their java and adobe restictions if they did that it would be the best phone on the market!!!!!

why cant they make every site viewable.. if they would just get over themselves restricting the phones from certain sites.

Apple earns the overwhelming majority of their profit - far and away from the sale of their hardware - computers, iPods, iPads, and iPhones. Not from the sale of software and certainly not from iTunes store sales. The iTunes store is set up as a break even for Apple with this included with their financial reporting.
You are right about Apple not wanting to depend on a 3rd party for playing video via the internet, and anyone with a clue wouldn't want that either.
http://daringfireball.net/2010/01/apple_adobe_flash
"To my knowledge, Apple controls the entire source code to the iPhone OS. That’s not to say they wrote the whole thing from scratch. Many low-level OS components are open source. But they have the source. If there’s a bug, they can fix it. If something is slow, they can optimize or re-write it. That is not true for Mac OS X, and Flash is a prime example. The single leading source of application crashes on Mac OS X is a component that Apple can’t fix."
That would be Flash.
"This is why Apple wants to control the source code to the entire OS. If they want to go 64-bit with iPhone OS, it’s entirely in Apple’s own control to do so. And what happens if Apple goes to a new CPU architecture? For the components Apple controls the source code to, they can recompile for the new architecture. If the entire system doesn’t recompile cleanly for the new architecture, they can work on it until it does. For a component like Flash, where Adobe controls the source code, Apple instead has to wait."
"Which situation do you think Apple is happier with? Mac OS X, where they had to create a new web content plugin architecture because Flash crashes frequently and isn’t 64-bit? Or iPhone OS, where they control the source code to every single component, and can do whatever they want, when they want?"
"Apple isn’t trying to replace Flash with its own proprietary thing. They’re replacing it with H.264 and HTML5. This is good for everyone but Adobe."
"And yes, I know Flash does much more than just play video. But that’s the main thing everyone is talking about when they talk about Flash not working on the iPhone — video. And when you talk about other uses for Flash, you’re talking about serving as a software runtime, and whether you like it or not, Apple has a clearly stated opposition to third-party software runtimes for iPhone OS, and that policy seems to be working out pretty well for them."

No doubt the best phone ever made!!!!

Hi,
I cannot yet buy an iPhone as i live in the UK but i have no doubts in my mind that when it comes out i will be stading in line.
Was at work today and i noticed one in a customers hand (from San Francisco), just from the size of the screen i knew what it was.
It was like having one of Apples videos demonstarting the phone infront of me, saw the golden gate bridge on google maps, watched a video through the iPod function and even located his grandma's house via her contact dress in google maps.
Those of you that have one don't know how lucky you are.

Oh, I do know how lucky I am. I'm still geeking out over the fact the phone can sense when I move it up to my ear to instantly turn off the screen and turn it back on when I move it away.
Sure there are a few kinks but this really is what a mobile phone should be. Easy for us to take things like this for granted but wow. Really is a great product and it's really nice to see such quick support in the form of applications and sites optimized for the iPhone.
I certainly look forward to software updates by Apple and everything else that will enhance this device.

Droid Incredible is the best phone!!!!!!!!!!

The Droid Incredible is good phone, fast video and Internet, one problem the battery is bad!!!!!!!!!!!!

it doesn't make the phone useless at all. i actually don't use wifi as i find it plenty fast on 3g. however, if i do want to use it, it takes about 5 seconds to turn it on. there's just no point in having it on wifi 24-7. when you want to browse then turn it on. also, i have the screen set at about 30% bright and find that it's actually better this way when i'm out in the sun and inside it still looks amazing. i leave gps on though. it's just like any electronic device. if you leave all the bells and whistles running, even when you're not using them, it'll drain the battery faster.

Micro**bleep**. The best software company to screw...

Thanks MS for destroying a super, simple application that worked for years. I never had to click the Help button and here I am after almost a logging into Skype support pages.
Calls drop all the time. Connecting to non-mac users causes dropouts and error message that don't make any sense (problem with calling device, recording device)... device???
Bring back the good old working Skype. Until then ciao!

What's the best phone network to use while on holiday in California?

I'm headed to California for three weeks over the summer. I've just applied to have my iPhone unlocked by my UK provider, O2.
I might want to make a few short calls to locate friends etc whilst over there, but will mainly want to use the data for checking email/posting photos to Twitter etc.
Can anyone suggest a good SIM-only plan to pick up while I'm over there? I'd obviously want decent reception around the San Diego/LA areas, and reasonably cheap data prices. Suggestions?

There are only two major carriers, AT&T and T-Mobile ( which AT&T is in the process of buying).

Kudos to the best phone company in America
