t-mobile

[ribitch]

I switched from AT&T and bought the Samsung S105. I got it in the mail and I am really impressed. My old AT&T phones would pull maybe 1-2 bars signal, my mom and sister use cingular, and they were in the same boat as I was. My dad is now using nextHELL, and his is the worse of us all with frequent call drops. I open up my t-mobile, and waited 15 minutes. The phone started working after that 15 minute period. I have almost all of the signal meter, and the calls are crystal clear.

I should have switched along time ago.


Anyone else use tmobile?

[Grimm]

Yes, I do. I have a pretty good signal most of the time. But during peak use times I have a probelm getting a call out sometimes. I migt have to try 3 or 4 times =(

[hapoo]

metfoo?? ;)


Yeah, i got the Samsung s105 last week through amazon. So far i love it. Quality is great and i get a signal almost everywhere i've go.
I love the phone too. I've put a bunch of selfmade polyphonic ringtones on it already.

well from what i know in san diego, my friend has t-mobile and his phone says cingular on the lcd. so they use the same network
i was one of those ppl who hated cingulars service.. i got so many dropped calls and stuff
i had the nokia 8290 and now i have the 8390. WOOOOW
what a big diffrence !! crystal clear calls, and no dropped ones.
i love my service now:D

yep, metfoo is also my screenname. I first started using ribitch here, and on one or two other boards besides my own. Most the time I go by metfoo

I have used Cingular for 6 years, my logo still says Pac Bell, upgraded to a chip I got when they were pac bell after Cingular bought them. In so Cal I get a great signal.

My sister Had TMobile and hated it, no signal up in Berkeley. She returned it quickly.

I love T Mobile's spokeswoman..... she's a hottie.

[ribitch]

from what i see so far, you can send the ringtone with IR or the datacable (which is freaking expensive as all hell). Samsung offers a application that will convert midi files for you. I havent tried any of it yet

[hapoo]

Samsungs software doesn't let you convert, but it will let you transfer. To convert midi to mmf I use a software called psmplay. Just do a google search for it. I also found a site a while ago with TONS of mmfs, so i just downloaded the whole site. I think i have like 50 megs worth of ringtones :shrug:

I don't know about you guys but T-Mobile is horrible here in Orange County. My friend had it for a week and he had to return because nobody could call him on Friday afternoon. I was about to go with T-Mobile but ended it up with Verizon, which is great! I have good signal @ my house and my gf's since those are the two places I need signal! :D

[Tommy Boomfiger]

im thinking of getting the samsung n400. i dont know if it will take mmf files, all ive seen is it will read gcd files. that might be a sprint vision thing. ill have to check it out after i get it

thats wierd, my friends at UC irvine loove the service, but in the Pasadena area it blowz. i wish i got verizon. o well, i got a free motorola v60.

[ribitch]

verizon blows in mid michigan (where my university was) the service is ok in detroit, and sprint just sucks ass bigtime. Many people swaer by NextHELL here, but i hate their phones because they are so annoying, the users annoy me, and my dads coverage just blows. Plus i wanted to ditch the xDMA technologies in favor of GSM

[Freelance Superhero]

yeah i live in west la and verizon's great... switched over from at&t...

and actually, i had heard that sprint is good everywhere else cept california... guess that's not as true as i thought...
