Activating Unlocked/Rooted?

[llamainmypocket]

What plan did you go with if you don't mind? I decided I'll get the $50 unlimited plan to start and see how I do on minutes. I've never used Google Voice or Groove IP, but I plan on it so I can see if I'm fine with the $30 100 mins plan. All much better than ~$100 Any pro tips?

One thing that you guys with Google voice should be aware of is that it's not true VoIP. I know this because I physically have no voice service and when I tried to use Google voice it doesnt work.

Also, last time I played around with it I was plagued with echos. I don't know if anything has changed in the last few months.

Skype on the other hand is a professional service that's been well established and is true VoIP. Just use the real app instead of that crappy bloatware Skype that comes on most phones.

After re-reading this thread, if I were you, I would just go with Solavei. For something under $50, they have unlimited calls text and 4gb 4g data via tmo. If it were me, I'd contact that chick with the avatar of the blue eyed husky (http://forums.androidcentral.com/members/runtmms-1192246/). I think Solavei give some $$ credit to its users that refer customers, and she seems to work pretty hard at helping folks out here.

The great thing about this phone is that you're committed to no one, so if a plan doesn't work out for you, just change.

Going with Tmobile to start, but as you said the great thing is I can always switch. I never heard of Solavei, but do some research and would certainly help out runtmms. Or rather a sybiotic relationship I suppose. Thanks folks.
