So I just made the switch from T-Mobile from my beloveded Sensation today. I was in my 30 day trial still (coming from Sprint to T-Mobile) so im returning it. Both horrible service where I live. So that's why I have chosen Verizon. I have the LG revolution for now until Thursday when my Bionic comes in I will make the swap.
Coming from two HTC phones (sensation and evo) I'm excited to check out the Bionic. Especially on Verizons lte network. Anyone else getting one on launch day or making the switch from another carrier?

getting mine on friday probably!!!!!!!
What is the best option!? I've heard Amazon, Best Buy, Costco? Any SOLID suggestions on where I should get mine on Thursday!??!
I will be switching from ATT. I have dropped so many calls the last couple of weeks it has been unbearable. The only bad thing is that Verizon is not officially in my county, but they have better reception here than ATT. The best part is that we have a huge corporate account with Verizon and I still get unlimited data.
Im getting mine from one of my local Verizon stores. Can't wait. Although I'm an HTC fan I think I'm gonna like using something different.

I will most likely get it from Costco on Thursday, because the have it bundled with a bunch of accessories for $299.
Gonna try costo myself...if it holds to be true with the included acc pack...crossing my fingers

I didn't even think of that... but since I purchased the LG revolution today to get me started I get to return it without the re stocking fee Thursday and purchase my bionic. I'm just hoping I'm gonna like it coming from the evo and the sensation.

If I don't buy mine from a verizon store, can I still use my new every 2 discount..at let's say...costco??
My Bionic will be here in the morning. I had the D1,D2,DX,Fascinate, and currently the Thunderbolt. The cool thing is i have not come out of pocket for any of my phones since the D1 lol. I hope something can be done about the bootloader if not of well Ill give Bionic to the wife and take her Thunderbolt

The defy is a good all around phone. And you can't really break it either. Believe me. I tried. There are some excellent roms out for it, battery life is incredible (I averaged 3 days w\o a charger). It all depends on if you can deal with the Motorola bootloader shizniz. They're not too nice when you update and you're rooted

Maybe wait for the LG 2X as it's supposed to have bands for T-Mo AND AT&T.
(That might future proof you in case AT&T actually gets their way. And not to mention dual core )
Otherwise I say Nexus S
For about the 3rd time in 3 weeks LTE is out again. Of course each time when it goes I am assuming it is my phone and I do a complete wipe only to find out it is the service. I am about ready to go back to my droid x! Nationwide outage again according to VZ.
not just lte this time, 3g is out too. someone must've spilled coffee on the main server or something.
Yep no 3g or 4g in Toledo ohio
Out in Chicago also.
No 4g here in Olympia WA

Apparently this affects all phones differently. The samsung charge right next to me has rock solid 4g while I am getting 3g for about 5 out of every 10 mins on my bionic.

Seems like VZ should give some kind of refund for every day the service is down. This is beginning to get a bit absurd. I have unlimited data for $19.95 and it still ticks me off.
No Joy in NY.

This must be why i lost 3g about 230 this morning and it has popped up working again around 8 but is rather jumpy...
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
Call them and ask. But be warned. If you pay $19.98 and you were down for a day, the refund is $0.66.
Yeah, I lost it early this AM in Los Angeles as well. I'm not pissed because I'm happy it wasn't my phone.....
No problems down here in southeast texas. 3g/4g works no problems...
4g/3g in Philly, when my phone gets around to it

Ok you guys are not going to believe this. Since my wife is a data hog doing 40 gigabytes a month they gave her a Droid 4. She was using a 3G LG Ally
They said they want to get the heavy users off of the 3G network. So as an incentive they are giving discounts to people that are heavy users with 3g phones to upgrade to 4G usually 100 off. My wife was an extreme case so they gave her the droid 4 for free. How backwards and awesome is that? So moral of the story.... be a data hog and get yourself a free 4G device. LOL
I am hearing rumors that they want to clear 3g for I phone users because Iphone will not be receiving 4g!! Yikes Stinks to be an apple lover!!
Ha! So that's why my account got flagged for $100 off with an early upgrade!
I got no such deal. I got mine for the $200

Seeing as how the Nexus 5 unlocked from the play store can work with Sprint, who here is planning on jumping to that phone? Pros/cons?
And with most gs4s selling on Craigslist in my area for 400, might end up being an even trade. Has me considering jumping to lg. Even though I've never had an lg device, my experience with the gnex was great.

I bailed
Expecting my N5 to reach me on Wednesday. I kept my S4 on MF9, rooted (didn't install MJA), and put it on CL clearly indicating that. I put it on there today for 500, and I have 2 offers (who indicated that they wanted it as it is - without installing 4.3 - must be familiar with the KNOX issues after installing MJA).
Of course things can change till money changes hands, but so far so good! Ordered N5 using discover card, for a 5% cashback, so that worked out even better.
so we can purchase the the device through play store and just transfer our sprint phone line?

I'm contemplating the same thing. Gonna call sprint later today to see how I might go about it.

Yes, the unlocked play store n5 works with Sprint. Confirmed via Android Central and a Sprint rep.

Have a great day!
Coming from the evo lte and considering either the sprint or vz m8. Wondering how people are finding the coverage/network so far in the ny metro and LI? Evo had lackluster coverage at times, bot willing to commit to 2 more years of that just to upgrade phone.
