Just curious if everyone saw that Verizon added 1.7 Million customers during the past quarter while Cingular, Sprint, AT&T, and Nextel all added only a little over 1.8 Million combined! So I wonder how long until Verizon regains the number one spot.

Can anyone help me figure out how to get a Sanyo 8200 working on Verizon? From everything I've been reading, it sounds like it's really possible.

I haven't bought the phone yet -- I'm trying to find a cheap used one to start with, and I'm trying to get some information on how to go about this in the meantime.

I know that I need an MSL. Once I have that, what do I need to do? I realise that I need to program the phone with Verizon information, I would need to active the ESN on my account (is that even going to work?), and I need to load Verizon's PRL onto the phone. But I don't really know / understand the specifics.

If anyone has done this, or if they have ANY information, I'd appreciate it!

(p.s. I posted this in the Sanyo forum...

cripes... INCLUDING PREPAID! I'd like to see some prepaid only numbers....

If our churn is that low even with prepaid flunkies coming and going at whim, then our true post-paid churn rate must be low low low!

I have a friend who *INSISTS* that I should never get a trimode phone because it could easily be cloned when its in analog mode.

True or False?

😕

I got my East Coast phone today on the west coast, finally, and it should have my east coast number already ported but I won't know about this until I get home from work. 😕
Does anyone have any info or resources for using this phone with my Mac for transferring data, modem service, etc.?

Can someone answer this for me? Im just dying to get this one... Please let me know.

Here's a nice little 3rd party observation:



Verizon Wireless received an "A" for Customer Satisfaction in a Vocal Laboratories report which measured the quality of customer care for July-September. They improved from a "B" ranking in the previous quarter. The study also found that 83 percent of Verizon Wireless customers got the information they wanted on the first call - a "B" ranking in their "call completion" category (what we refer to as first call resolution).



T-Mobile also received an "A" for customer satisfaction and a "B" for Call completion, "barely" topping Verizon Wireless for the best customer service among the five companies, according to VocaLabs. Cingular, AT&T Wireless and Sprint each got straight C's. VocaL...

I ordered new LG6100 and was unable to *228 them because I am not in a Verizon tower area. I had to drive 30 miles to do *228.

Question: If I want updated roaming why shouldn't I be able to do *228 from anyplace I am. Verizon rep told me that no other tower wants to pay for a free airtime service so I needed to be by a Ver tower. Well that doesn't make sense to me since I am in an area that doesn't have a verizon tower nearby but "supposedly" they piggyback other towers. I don't want to *228 in an area that has just Verizon coverage, I want to *228 in my area to get better roaming options. Can anyone help?

Let's all agree to disagree and go back to decent conversations... This Cingular vs Verizon ; CDMA vs GSM spill is going on way too long now... I understand we'll always be competitors now more so but we can have a decent conversation w/o having to compare the size of our... "networks"... right?

Has verizon done away with the national one rate plan? (dont know if i got the name right) it was the plan that offered NO roaming on verizon.... (was a little more expensive than the America's Choice plans)

i dont see it any more on the website

Ok, so I go on the web and I can see a tiny picture of the whole country with blotches of pretty red and pink......great....but i have never and most likely will never go to Montana.....so a tiny picture of the whole country is useless....a tiny picture of the NY/NJ metro area is usefull.....where can I see one of those, and if not on the site why not?

Now im not saying that it will ever happen, but im just curious if everyone would be at everyone else's throat about mergers if Verizon was to merge with Alltel, or Sprint, or even U.S Celluar.

I just have to get rid of my t-730 and was thinking of LG as a replacement.
I have a bad feeling for Motorola after the phone and the 710 being pulled already just makes me want to switch.
Any advice for a replacment?

I am not necessarily married to having to have Tri-Mode and don't need camera as an essential.

Need a display for "over 40 eyes"....lol

they are now calling it the all over network.

i want to get the 6100 but i am willing to wait until christmas time if there are any new models coming out before or around that time. anyone know if there are any plans for new ones?

Is there a new topic that anyone would like to discuss?

Verizon Wireless 3rd Quarter Results:

1.7 million net customer additions, an industry record for the second consecutive quarter; 42.1 million total customers; 23.0 percent growth in total revenues; company-record average revenue per customer; 22.5 percent operating income margin; churn (customer turnover) of 1.5 percent per month

Even Cingular and AT&T together can't pull those kind of numbers. VZW will have the market share by this time next year for sure!

Hi,

Now here is my take on what they mean, the dark blue and red areas are all digital coverage. The light blue or pink areas are analog coverage areas, or areas that other carriers are transitioning.

Is this the correct take on this, or is it diffrent like the dark is 1xrtt coverage (with data extended networks), and the rest is IS95?

I know there is a Verizon 1x map that is orange for enhanced services. That is not what I am talking about though.

Please confirm or correct my thinking on this,

Thanks 😉

Can the new LG 6100 phone accept / play MP3 ringtones? Thanks.

Does anyone know why they charge for detailed billing and to receive text messages? My current carrier doesn't, and I have been comparison shopping for a new carrier, and Verizon is the only one I have found that charges for those things. Does anyone know why??? Thanks!
