as much as I can get lol I started kicking myself when we switched to VZW share everything plan.. wishing we had kept unlimited data.. I am hearing that the new 4.2.2 breaks LTE? LTE should be in Norfolk VA. so does that mean no LTE until another update and it would just be a 3G phone?
Also how is the LG antennae compared to Moto(best IMO), HTC(eh mediocre), Sammy(FML)?
Here are my views on the T-Mobile prepaid plans out there. Of course, you have to be happy with T-Mobile's coverage.
1. T-Mobile $30 100 talk minutes / unlimited text and data. Data throttled after 5GB. This is a great deal if you don't need the talk minutes.
2. Solavei (T-Mobile MVNO) $49 unlimited talk / text / data. Data throtted after 4GB. This is the plan I chose. (For $50 the plan from T-Mobile only gives 100MB of unthrottled data.)
3. T-Mobile $70 unlimited everything, unthrottled - If you really need a lot of data.
Solavei is also doing a referral sign up program which can effectively lower its rate. It's optional and costs nothing - I find it entertaining.
I didn't mention Straight Talk because they don't have a defined data plan. There are too many reviews about seemingly random throttling. I prefer to know what I'm buying.
As far as the lte goes... If you check the Nexus 4 threads some people are taking the 4.2.2 update then flashing the old radio to get lte back. I don't know how complicated this is. Regardless, the Nexus 4 is hspa+ 42 compatible which is what T-Mobile calls 4g. (It's lte band is the same one T-Mobile is rolling out. It has virtually no lte compatibility on the ATT network.)
