Your situation sounds a lot like mine a little over a year ago. I switched over to VM from Sprint in July 2010. Best decision I ever made, and I don't regret it one bit. As long as your contract period is over, Sprint can't "punish" you for switching over, and bringing your number with you, for...

I upgraded from the Optimus to the Triumph, too. No problems whatsoever with my phone. My personal opinion is that the vast majority of the phones are just fine. Most people who buy the phones just use them for average usage and don't bother with these forums. The only people who search out the...

I've had mine since July 19th and I couldn't be happier with it. I must have gotten lucky because I haven't had any of the hardware issues that many people have reported. That being said, my reception does seem to be not as good as my wife's Optimus; she always seems to have a stronger signal...

Do you guys normally take a backup of your Triumph before rooting? If so, what's the best backup app? Sent from my MOTWX435KT using Tapatalk

I must have one of the rare Triumphs that suffer none of the issues listed above.

Please do let us know how you like the Rocket Fish. I like the feel of the Triumph,too, but I'm getting nervous carrying it around without a case.

Very cool! You need to market that!

Yes, extended battery would be excellent. Been searching the net since I got my Triumph...have yet to find one... ...or a decent case, for that matter. :(

I posted on the OtterBox Facebook page a question about whether or not they intend to come out with a case for the Triumph. Their reply was: "I am not aware of any current plans, but I will let you know of any updates." I'll bet if we show enough interest on their page, they will start to pay...

I ported my number from Sprint to VM in Dec. 2010...process took about 2 hours. However, even back then, they said it could take anywhere from 24 to 72 hours...I was pleasantly surprised when it took only 2! Hopefully, yours will go through pretty soon....hang in there!

And now $129.99 at Amazon.com: Amazon.com: LG Optimus Prepaid Android Phone (Virgin Mobile): Cell Phones & Accessories It looks like stores are trying to get rid of their stock of Optimus phones before the Triumph comes out! :D

Hmmm, hard to know which site to believe. This one says price for the Triumph has been confirmed to be $299: Sprint Prepaid Group Leaks: Boost BlackBerry Style, Beyond Talk Price Changes (Updated) | PhoneNews.com It also confirms that the increase in plan rates takes effect on 7/20/11, the day...

Hmmm...$300 I will be happy to pay...$500 would make me go with the Optimus.
