also, i think 50% i phone in US is bit high..thinking more along the lines of 35-40%. so using the same calucation would give sprint about 2.5-3.5 iphone sold. Which is still really high. Think S will have in q4 around 9 billion in rev vs 8.68b est. and est of -.25 eps vs -.38 eps on est. Think they have been doing well cutting cost and rebuilding their image. Dan H. has done better then most think. He got into a sinking ship and has done alot to the company. He\'s only been with the company for 4.5 years and has been doing well bringing it back. They first needed to imporve image and now they are working on growing image. It\'s a process, I have owned my own business for 18 years, you can\'t turn a business size of S around over night, especially when they lost so much market share back in early to mid 2000\'s. IN 10 YEARS SPRINT WILL MOST LIKELY BE #1 OR #2 IN THE WIRELESS PHONE INDUSTRY.

I\'m with you long on sprint, but aren\'t they expected to have around 280 new post paid customer by estimate,....1 mil is bit high unless you are including month to month as well.
Matt Carter buys 65,000 shares on feb 1, 2012
Sat, 04 Feb 2012 21:20:34 GMT
Funny how people say \" I know\",,,, no one knows. What I do know is that there is way more up side then down to this stock. It\'s selling under book value. Although they have alot of issues they have improved. Most importantly, Matt C., president of wholesale venture buying 65,000 shares on FEB 1, should tell ya something. I\'m no rocket scientist but, he does have the q4 numbers (unlike us), and is buying right before the q4 report is releases......I don\'t think he would buy any shares week before the earning release unless the number beat the expectations. That\'s my 2 cents

Be nervous, be very nervous if you are still holding! The market has stretch as far out as possible, It\'s like an elastic, it\'s gonna have to recoil and a market self-correction is next week.

This stock is on shaky-ground! So i decided to cash-in my chips (Shares) into the close. Got in @2.13, i couldn\'t resist, i had to book my profits. The Market has peaked into the all-time high. There will be at-least 5% market pull-back next week and will pull S down along with it. I get my info from a trusted source, So i am sharing it.
Sprint Predictions
Sat, 04 Feb 2012 21:34:04 GMT
I have a thesis that Sprint\'s fortunes will improve with the iPhone raising all ships. They will have a large beat on revs and come up short on EPS. They will be forgiven because of greater new subs. They\'re priced for a worst-case scenario. Either they will pop next week with earnings and start a slow recovery or inch closer to bankruptcy. I also think it\'s a plus for them that the AT&T/T-Mobile deal is off for now. I predict they could sell as many as 6.7 million iPhones (+/-) 1 million (Sprint network activations). Verizon sold 4.2 million AT&T sold 7.6 million Apple sold 37 million (divided by 2 = approximately 18.5 million sold in US)

Re: head fake rally
Sat, 04 Feb 2012 16:14:11 GMT
I think. There will be a buyer, acquirer, private equity infusion to make S viable against its brgeoning debt. Hesse has positioned it nicely, smartly with some very good professional backing from wall street investor banker like GS, I think. This is the week we get to know what the game plan is. So many are waiting in the wings to take on old-fashioned AT&T and Verizon management. I am willing to bet FaceBook, Gogle are fed up with traditional networkers. Accumulate on deeps, Idiot. You will do fine. But you have to be in it to win.

A recent report from customer service research group J.D. Power and Associates has ranked Sprint second in customer service among the major U.S. wireless carriers. This study is based on the response from 9,098 wireless customers that contacted customer care in the past six months.

Better Prices from Other Sprint Phone Sellers
Sat, 04 Feb 2012 16:44:03 GMT
Looking to upgrade a phone on my family plan. Notice that Amazon and Target are sellers of Sprint phones at a substantially lower price. I do not want to change my plan so I am not sure that these places are offering the same plan as I have since I only want the phone. The phone that I am looking at is $50 less on Amazon and $100 less at Target for the same phone that is offered on the Sprint website. What am I missing as to why everyone should be buying from these guys rather than your friendly Sprint store? Are there any negatives?

Google has stopped supporting CDMA on Nexus phones.
Sat, 04 Feb 2012 03:24:35 GMT
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fro...ib/phz3S5ZdveU Quote: Hello! This is a quick clarification about support for CDMA devices. For various technical reasons, recent CDMA Android devices implement core telephony functionality in .apk files provided in binary form by the carriers. To function correctly, these .apk files must be signed by the so-called "platform" key. However, when an individual creates a custom build from the AOSP source code, they don\'t use the same signing key as these CDMA flies were signed with. The result is that these files don\'t work properly, and pure AOSP builds running on these devices can\'t place calls, access mobile data, and so on. Because we aim to make sure that we are as clear as possible about the degree of support that devices have, we updated the docs over at source.android.com to reflect this reality. We will still make available as many as possible of the closed-source binaries for these devices, and Nexus devices will continue to have unlockable bootloaders. And, of course, GSM/HSPA+ devices are still supported, as are any other devices we\'re able to support. We\'ve simply updated the documentation to be clearer about the current extent of CDMA support. We are of course always working to improve support, and we\'ll keep everyone updated as we make improvements. Thanks as always for your interest in AOSP! - Dan
Will I be hit with a restocking fee here?

Advantage plan and porting
Fri, 03 Feb 2012 22:04:25 GMT
I\'m currently on a Sprint Advantage plan (employee supported), and have four phones on my account. We purchased new phones 6 months ago, and now want to port one of the phones to another carrier. My question: a Sprint rep told me that I didn\'t have to wait six months to disconnect the phone - there would be no charge (difference between phone retail and discounted/rebated price) to disconnect. Is this true? I thought the service had to be active for six months if a rebate was involved. Second question: I want to port the number, but the account is currently in the employee name, and I\'m not sure how the carrier will handle the port. Is there going to be an issue because the new service won\'t be in the same name as the existing Sprint service. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Not sure the Sprint reps would answer consistently. Thanks.
Cross Call Contamination
Fri, 03 Feb 2012 01:47:05 GMT
Was talking to my friend today. He lives outside Chicago. I am in the SW burbs. Both have sprint. Today I was talking to him and it was dead silent. He wasn\'t responding to me. My call timer was still ticking, I was still connected. Then it dropped me. He calls me back and asked, "Did you hear her?" I had no idea what he was talking about. He said all of a sudden I was gone, and he had some chick on there talking and she must have got disconnected from her call because she was saying "Bob? Bob are you there?" (my friend is not Bob). My friend was able to talk to her...she got freaked out and she hung up. This happened one other time with him a few months ago. I had this happen to me once (I heard someone else on the line)...hasn\'t happened since. My friend said this was 2 different areas so it couldn\'t be just one tower. Has anyone had that happen....or know what that is/what it is called?
Did I miss something, why are my BlackBerrys being dinged $10/month for data?
Fri, 03 Feb 2012 00:42:44 GMT
I\'m fairly aloof when it comes to analyzing my everything data shared family plan.. All lines have 4G devices, except for 2 who are faithful to their BlackBerry Bolds. Just caught my attention that the Bolds have been getting dinged what appears to be the $10/month 4G data cost since July. This is around the time 2 lines on the account added Galaxy S IIs, so perhaps there was some confusion there? The BlackBerry lines have never had anything but BlackBerrys, so this wasn\'t a back and forth 4G thing. Or, maybe I missed the boat and Sprint started charging *every* smartphone $10/month?
Need some help from sprint plan experts
Thu, 02 Feb 2012 23:32:25 GMT
I have had sprint for years. I have the original SERO 3 lines... then ERPR family plan. Then I moved all my lines over to a normal family plan and got my 25% corp discount because I was told it would be cheaper and it would be for all the lines.... now I look at my bill and see that is not the case anymore :mad: I was wondering if there was anyway to get back onto the ERPR family plan. Any help would be great please thanks so much.

Can I swap phones with my son to get an upgrade?
Thu, 02 Feb 2012 13:08:58 GMT
Here is my dilemma. I was able to upgrade my phone last year, but my son was not able to upgrade till May of this year. I\'m the primary, and his is the secondary line. He wants the phone I currently have (Epic 4G), and doesn\'t really care to get a new one. I\'d thought about going ahead and upgrading his phone, then just swapping him for mine. Can I just have the numbers swapped between them? Jive
who got out ETF FREE due to discount policy change?
Thu, 02 Feb 2012 12:11:52 GMT
Curious who got out ETF due to the policy change? * did you encounter difficulty when trying to cancel? *were the reps knowledgeable? (Know anything about the change etc) * did you have to call back more than once? * if you were abke to get out ETF free... what carrier are you going to? Just thought I\'d see who was lucky to get out. When I called the other day.. .The lady kept saying it would be $170.00 to leave. Said it was for equipment. That my contract shows fulfilled? But on line my acct shows contract fulfillment date of next year. I really didn\' t have time to argue so I figured I would call back. at another day. She was offering me $100 to stay? But I think i would be locked in for another 2 years. Any way... lets here everyones experience.
Question about selling phone if I go back on-contract...
Thu, 02 Feb 2012 02:05:42 GMT
Sorry if this is elementary to some of you but I\'m trying to decide what disadvantage there is in going back on-contract after being off-contract for many years. I\'ve always bought used phones. Currently am a Sero-P/Blackberry user so the bill is $40/month + tax. I really want a new phone to replace a 9330 Curve with something Android at the same rate - Moto Admiral is the likely one but used price is still pretty high... So if I go back on-contract... and get a new phone. After I do, say I decide i want to sell my phone and pick up another - probably a used one on Ebay... Can I deactivate or otherwise make the phone I want to get rid of "clean" and clear of my contract to sell it used, or is a contract commitment tied to the device in some way that would make it a problem to give it a clean ESN and re-sell it as a \'no-contract phone...? It\'s been so long since i\'ve had anything to do with a contract, i don\'t know anything about the commitment. I\'d basically just be doing this to get the upgrade price on a new 3G Android. I was fairly sold on going with a Transform Ultra but it\'s $10 higher a month vs the Admiral, according to the latest SERO info... Thanks for your help Mike
