    keeping number help

    It worked just to follow up. I am in a 4G area but it has always been 1 bar at the most at my house. My thunderbolt refused to go to 3G from 4G so I had to put up with 1X most of the time when not using my wifi. This Incredible is already a ton faster than my thunderbolt. Thanks for the help.

    keeping number help

    I have suffered with the 4g thunderbolt the past year. I got fed up and bought a dinc off of Craigslist to get me through until my contract expires. Much to my surprise, the dinc does not contain a sim card slot. Yes, I'm stupid. Can I just use this phone and keep my original number or do I need...

    mute the splash thunderbolt movie on reboot?

    Tried Silent Boot in all its configurations. Everything on silent, etc still sounds at reboot. Have an issue because my phone randomly reboots. Any new help would be much appreciated.

    4G Hotspot does not stay connected to 4G disconnects all the time

    Same issue with me from day one. I am on my second TB and the same. I have a dell xp, macbook pro. I play pokerstars poker and have never made it more than 5 minutes without being disconnected. This is not a specific area issue with me because it happens all over the twin cities which has a very...

    That SIM card is yours forever

    So when i exchanged my bolt for a new one on wed i enjoyed watching for 10 minutes and three employees try and activate a new sim card for me before the manager told them i was to keep the same one. Having read this thread i already knew what was going to happen. I had the time so i was mildly...

    Problems with 3G data? Don't hard reset, read this first!

    So to follow up on my issues. Tech support called me just now and told me they would not have time to complete my order. He said it sounds like my phone is the issue not the network. He told me to swap out phones for a new one today. I really appreciate all of your insights and support...

    Problems with 3G data? Don't hard reset, read this first!

    I showed this info to the Verizon tech and they basically ignored it. They did the usual thing, calling tech support. I have a open ticket but I don't see anything coming of it. I am going to return my phone tomorrow and hopefully get a new one. This follows my hard reset from tech support last...

    Problems with 3G data? Don't hard reset, read this first!

    Funny because I had mine reset at about 11:30am mnt time. My problem is the 4g or bust issue. Anyway, I got out the coverage map and drove 40 or so miles west of Minneapolis into a solid 3g only area. Same thing happened...no data connection or sometimes 1X would kick in. I am still waiting to...

    How's it working as a PHONE?

    Once again i feel like debbie downer. My voice quality is very grainy and for the first time in years as a verizon customer, i had a few dropped calls while in a solid calling area. Also i got locked out from a call the other day. Very strange. Couldn't open the call button with an incoming...

    SOLUTION: No data problem

    Same as above. Never have 3G. It's 4G or nothing at all for me.
