Listening to Radio. Need you guys' advice.

Hi guys,
I use Blackberry curve/Sprint on $30 SERO plan which covers unlimited data/text/weekend call/night call starting 7pm, and 500 min talk. It's such a cheap and great plan I don't really want to give up. The thing is, the Blackberry su*ks.
I am willing to give up the plan for an iPhone 3gs if it works for me. I listen to news/talk show or music radios all day long, not exactly all day long 'cause the blackberry refuses to work that hard, and sometimes it doesn't make it through a day. shame.
Checking the iPhone 3gs' tech specs, I found that it holds up to 5 hours on 3G. Since it doesn't have FM radio, the only way I listen to radio stations is using its 3g network, which means it's not going to make it through a day, either, I guess.
Any advice? Should I just give up and buy a mp3 player with FM radio function?

Well, that would probably be the best way to go; then you'll not deplete the iPhone's charge.
But I was able to listen to many internet radio stations on my original 2G (EDGE) iPhone. So you could disable 3G and probably substantially extend battery life.

  • Need you guys to test something for me on your MBP

    i have had my MBP for a week now. its been great. but today i just noticed something. wanted to know if it was just mine or all of them. also was wondering if it was hardware or software related.
    the probelm is simple. when i use the trackpad it works fine. but if i go and use the keyboard (for example, to copy and paste, or to type in an internet address in safari) then go back to use the trackpad it does not work. but even crazier is that it just does not work on the right side of it. i need to touch the far left side , then my mouse works again and then i can use the whole trackpad. until i use the keyboard again....then i have to hit the left part of the trackpad to get my mouse to move again. can you guys check it out and tell me if im the only one, and also you opinions if this might be a hardware or software related issue.

    nevermind. i unchecked "ignore accidental trackpad input" in the preferences and all is well again. thanks.

  • Help! MacBook Pro only boots in Safe Mode and runs extremely slow (bonus: happened in Brazil and there are no Apple stores here - I need you guys!)

    It's a MBP mid 2010. Last year it had some problems and an Apple authorised shop changed the HD and upgraded the OS from Snow Leopard to Lion. After that it seemed fine. Recently it started getting very slow and apps (e.g. Chrome, Flash) would crash. At some point it seemed stuck so I gave it a hard shutdown - bad idea. After that it would only boot in Safe Mode. I ran repar disk and repair permissions from the Disk Utility and it booted normally again but extremely slow. I upgraded to OS X 10.8.2, but didn't solve it. I tried booting with Command D to have a hardware diagnostic - it wouldn't boot and now it only boots in Safe Mode.
    All data is backed and I have an external HD (but not an OS X Disc). Ready to anything. Help please!

    Also you can perform #1 and #2 as these occur before Safe Mode, so you just reboot again with Shift key if you need to enter Safe Mode again.
    At this point it sounds like your hard drive is dying or some sort of other hardware issue which I can only advise this.
    Try to install OS X on a external drive and boot from it, if it's fine then you know your internal boot drive is dying.
    Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
    You can replace your internal drive yourself.
    OtherWorld Computing is pretty good about providing drives and tool kits to perform that function yourself.

    Nothing to fix because nothing is broken. Something messed with your system and it was perceived as tampering. Only buying the product and inputting a serial number wil lunlock it again.

  • How to save the radio station you just listened as a playlist?

    Make a save radio station button.. to listen them as a playlist later.

    Please!! One of, if not the, main reason I got Premium is to be able to use this on my phone in offline mode.  I love the Offline feature of spotify, but is limited to playlists.  Usually I end up adding a public playlist of the genre I'm interested in, but can be tedious and oftentime will have too few or too many songs for me to sync with my phone to listen while I'm out and about and not use up my phone's data plan. 
    If a random sample of music from a station could be added as a playlist, this would make Spotify about perfect for me.  Say being able to choose 10, 25, 50, 100, 300 songs, or something like that.  An option to randomize again when syncing would be great too, so I could do that over wifi. Also, I have a Roku attached to my TV/Sound System, and it only supports playlists and not radio, so this is another reason, although both would be great :)
    I love where you guys are heading!  I use you on my iPhone, Android tablet, PC, and Roku.  Haven't touched Pandora in at least 6 months...why bother?

  • IS there any app to listen FM radio which does not need internet.

    IS there any app to listen FM radio which does not need internet. Because my previous nokia phone had it and I can listen to local FM stations without connecting to internet.

    To think outside the box, you could get a headset with FM:
    Sony Ericsson MW600 Bluetooth Stereo Headset with FM Radio
    Sony Ericsson MH907ch Bluetooth Stereo Headset with FM Radio
    I use the first one with my Sony Ericsson phone, which although it does have a FM radio, doesn't work unless I have wired headphones plugged in.  And the streaming apps are choppy for me due to the weak 3G signal in my area.  (Constant rebuffering.)  So with these headsets, I have FM radio and can answer the phone without having to change earbuds and without having having to use up my cellphone's battery power to power the FM radio or the app.

    I bought this iPhone from a guy and later on he passed away in Syria , after that , I tried to update the soft ware to ISO 7 but the system asked me for the old owner's information which I do not know so could you please advice me on that , what can I do to reactivate the device ?

    You cannot reactivate the device without knowing the previous owner's information.  This is the new antitheft measure built into the iPhone. 
    There's nothing you can do.  You'll need to purchase a new phone.

    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.

    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • HOW DO YOU GUYS DEAL WITH APPLE.. SO CONFUSING...NEED HELP WITH SPECS FOR PURCHASE OF IMAC 21.5

    Hi guys, been reading your forums, blogposts, etc and am getting more confused.  I'm just a video girl trying to produce meaningful content through web videos for small to mid sized businesses and want to come over from the dark side. 
    Good news,, I dont need a super giant system,  I do simple editing for web videos, minimal graphics, no motion graphics, no animation etc. currently using CS4, will probably end up with 5.5.
    I want to get imac 21.5 or 27 if i have to..  So here's the question we all have,,, what do I really need besides an Apple fairy godmother to figure this crazy stuff out?????
    I want to be able to have firewire add on, but the rest is what I need help with.   So i've been looking at cs6 specs, even though im not there yet, eventually will be,, so just need to run cs4 now and build from there.  I also want to eventually move to final cut down the road so I want imac able to upgrade to final cut.
    WHAT DO I REALLY NEED MINIMALLY FOR NOW?  WHAT CAN I GET LATER IF i CHOOSE TO DO MORE AND NEED MORE POWER?
    cs6:
    Multicore Intel processor with 64-bit support
    Mac OS X v10.6.8, v10.7, or v10.8**
    4GB of RAM (8GB recommended)
    4GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive file system or on removable flash storage devices)
    Additional disk space required for preview files and other working files (10GB recommended)
    1280x900 display
    7200 RPM hard drive (multiple fast disk drives, preferably RAID 0 configured, recommended)
    OpenGL 2.0–capable system
    DVD-ROM drive compatible with dual-layer DVDs (SuperDrive for burning DVDs; Blu-ray burner for creating Blu-ray Disc media)
    QuickTime 7.6.6 software required for QuickTime features
    Optional: Adobe-certified GPU card for GPU-accelerated performance
    Any responses would be great.  I know you guys are busy answering the really high end tech questions

    All the current iMac models (both 21.5" and 27" with OS X Mt. Lion 10.8) will run CS4, 5.5 and 6 just fine.  They will also run Final Cut Pro X just fine.  Ditto for most any application you may want to use.
    Below are some notes (specific to your apparent requirements) that may help you with your purchase decision:
    Notes on purchasing a 21.5" iMac
    All 21.5" iMacs come with 8GB RAM but you cannot add more later.  I strongly suggest getting the maximum RAM (16GB) when you order the iMac.
    The basic hard drive is a 1TB 5400rpm drive.  It will work fine with Adobe CS but you will probably want the added speed of the optional 1TB Fusion drive for better performance. Some people will recommend/argue for one of the optional SSD drives instead, but they are very expensive and still only come in relatively small capacities - I don't recommend the SSD drives.  Get the Fusion drive and spend any extra money on a good external hard drive for backup and/or extra storage instead of an SSD.
    Notes on purchasing a 27" iMac
    All 27" iMacs come with 8GB RAM and you can add more later, up to 32GB
    The basic hard drive is a 1TB 7200rpm drive - it will be fine with Adobe CS.  There are upgrade options to a 3TB 7200rpm drive or a 1TB or 3TB fusion drive - these will be fine also.  There are also SSD drive options, but I do not recommend them. (Same comments as above.)
    Notes on all the current iMacs
    iMacs no longer come with built-in CD/DVD drives.  If you need one, you will need to purchase the Apple Superdrive accessory drive ($79)
    All of the iMac graphic processors (GPU's) are compatible with Adobe CS 4, 5.5, 6
    It is very difficult to impossible to change or upgrade the hard drive later on, so don't buy low-end thinking you can add a better internal hard drive later.
    Be aware that Macs always come with the latest (most recent) version of OS X.  And OS X Mavericks (10.9) is due to be released soon (in the next month or two).  There is no guarantee that the older Adobe CS 4 or 5.5 versions will run on OS X Mavericks.  If you cannot upgrade to CS 6 in the near future, you may want to purchase now rather than after OS X Mavericks is released.
    For what it's worth, I'd recommend the 27" iMac if your budget can afford it.  You will appreciate the larger screen size and added capabilities over the years you will use the computer.

  • Hey how are you guys listen i have an iphone 4s the one i use with the H20 CARRIEr and i trying to enable the option call forwarding and when i type tho number i go back and i notice to the call forwarding it turning off as soon i back to the main menu ?

    There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage.   There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
    I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.

  • You guys really need to fix Messages.

    The messages application within Mountain Lion is the most dysfunctional piece of software I've ever seen released, and not patched. Since ML was released, messages has been causing my 2011 MBP to freeze up on resuming and constantly locks up when I type something into the search field. If spotlight can index my entire harddrive, messages can index basic text messages. Also, messages is unable to send files at random times. The files transfer window shows all the files that had attempted to reach me, but their progress bars are stuck. Deleting .plist files for messages fixes this problem, but you should not have to do this. This program is absolutely unacceptable. You guys really need to patch this, or better yet, develop an entirely different messages. Something as simple as this program should have ZERO problems, especially being so late after its release. PLEASE FIX.

  • Where do you guys get your clients? I need side jobs

    Sorry if off topic. I use premiere cs4 and AE. I work for a non-profit org so all my work is for them. I would like to start doing small projects outside of work. I placed ads on craigslist but all i seem to get is spam replys. production hub seems slow. How do you guys put yourself out there? I don't really have any connections.

    The MOD's will probably move this to the Video Lounge, as that is the proper place for it, so watch in case it "disappears."
    In my case, most of my clients come either from my still client-base, or via word of mouth. Many of the latter seem to come from my circle of "friends," and from people related to my social endeavors, i.e. networking.
    One possibility would be to offer to do pro-bono editing for other not-for-profit groups. With permission, add full credits, including contact info. I sit on a few charity boards and we often do some major AV productions for the events. As these involve much more than just editing, and I also have a full "dance card," we use some pro-bono (in kind donations) productions. All of our printed materials have full credits to the production houses, and we ask that each do a full credit portion. For materials that we hand out at the events, or use in pre-event promotion, we ask that those production houses put their credits on the printed discs. This obviously helps us (pro-bono production), so we want to help them. I will also donate editing time, where appropriate, to those suppliers, should they need additional work.
    Back when I was shopping my portfolio more actively, I donated my services to organizations like the Denver Art Directors Club, and the Denver Ad Federation. I picked up dozens of clients from the donated projects. It also gave AD's and Creative Directors an opportunity to work with me on the pro-bono projects, so that they knew my capabilities and personality - at no charge to them.
    Lot of good comes from doing a "favor" under the right circumstances.
    Good luck, and look for this to go to the Lounge.

    [Edit] I see that the MOD's DID move the thread to the Lounge. This is where I would have put it too. Hope that the OP finds it here. If they saw any of the early replies, should not be an issue.
