LOL... There is no escape!!! ;)

I do understand the answer to your question matters greatly in terms of what is the best decision, and I'll be interested to hear it. But it’s also interesting to me that the simple fact that there is a carrier (including Sprint according to him) that has the “data block” option for a smartphone...

Yeah, we actually even left AT&T when all the "Unlimited" throttling thing broke, and went over to Sprint to reward them with our business for them being the only ones still giving what everybody knows nearly all customers want (Unlimited). But unfortunately, their service was just too bad to...

Ahhh... very interesting, thank you! And I see you using a Note 3, so I wouldn't see any reason why I couldn't do the same with an iphone 4. Cool... seems like this is another option.

Yeah, I totally hear ya… and I’m completely sympathetic to the fact that it’s not an easy situation. Contracts are legitimately necessary for both parties involved, otherwise things are left up to some 3rd party powerbroker who decides what is and isn’t fair or right depending on what mood they...

Hey paintdrinkingpete! I’m sure it is, but contrary to widely held belief, that dosen’t really mean everything. From radio DJ’s still losing lawsuits for a woman dying in a radio contest (even though she signed contracts expressly releasing them and the company from any liability), to AT&T...

Almeuit... Does mean that your example for T-Mobile is not legitimate either? I see your screen shot, which makes me think that it is possible... is the phone this is set up for a smartphone? Thanks.

Awesome... thanks so much for the suggestion. Definitely going to check this out.

Cool, thanks garublador, though I fail to see how “Cramming” is a case of unfairly denying a company their rights. I am not against business, companies rights, etc., though I’m not understanding how what you are presenting is related to what I described. There is no MMS involved to tie into...

Thanks Almeuit, but we are literally being told we are not allowed to have a smartphone without a data plan. They are saying they require a data plan for all smartphones "to ensure it is running properly" which is the same as them calling me a moron, hence the frustration... ;) I really don't...

I have an old Iphone 4 that is paid for, that I gave to my 12 year old son. We only want phone service on it, as any internet can be done via wifi that we already pay for, just like I could if the phone was not activated. I went and put just phone service on it at an AT&T store. Now, after...

Hmm... it's not looking like it. I did a scan with both Airpush and Malwarebytes, and it found nothing. I noticed that it leaves several web pages open after force opening googleplay; sites like adtrack.king.com, ad-x.co.uk, hastrk1, etc. I don't understand how these sites, companies, and...

Wonderful info, folks... much appreciated. I'll be trying these ideas directly.

Out of nowhere, my phone has been taken over by ads. Not completely, but whenever you unlock the phone from sleep, and periodically while using (at random functions). After unlocking from sleep, it usually opens a web page with some ?you?ve won? crap. Other times it is a system type popup...

Ah yeah, that is an EXCELLENT idea... didn't think of that. Big thanks to you!
