    Damn, that's interesting to hear. I just had them send me a discount if I signed up for auto-pay by the 15th of this month. Hopefully they stick around with AT&T, I couldn't imagine having to buy a phone that worked on TMOUS bands right now.

    Odd. I wonder if there was something wrong with the TMOUS SIMs I had. Oh well, APNEdit resolved my MMS problems and I can go back to using my SGS3 as a tinker toy.

    This stopped working with 6.0.2+ on the 4S - I tried a couple different SIMs from TMOUS and couldn't get the APN settings to populate correctly. Even if it's just for APNEdit or TetherMe, it's probably worth jailbreaking.

    Yeah, I can't even log into my Cydia account to download the full versions of iFile and TetherMe. Frustrating since I prefer use a smaller phone currently, but not having MMS since I can't alter my APN settings is a pain in the ass. I managed to get OpenSSH installed and can get into the...

    I've heard that Evolvs also can't be resolled, or at least not as many times as other shoes? In the Seattle area we have an outdoors shop called Second Ascent that does second hand shoes. I found a killer deal on some out of production 5.10s for $50 that looked as though they had been worn...

    The largest "benefit" is the ability to add functionality to the device. Things like toggles for wifi/tethering/lock screen rotation/etc. File viewers, lockscreen enhancements, themes to the GUI, alternative apps to standard apple apps. Some updated iOS 6 tweaks that will work with your new...

    The F*** Cancer Thread

    Prepping for my last day of chemo and radiation right now. Pretty surreal feeling to be honest. I have chest CT/x-rays today and the next several weeks, and my oncology team thinks that they'll be telling me that I'm in remission within the next two weeks. It's been an incredibly long 10...

    Ended up getting rid of the Atrix HD that I picked up super cheap from CL after my iphone died and snagged an SGS3 from a friend who wasn't using it anymore. Anyone have some suggestions on stable ROMs for the AT&T variant? Wading through XDA and looking at what shit is broken on most of them...

    iPhone4S without iTunes

    Throw together a VM and load iTunes on it if you don't want it running on your main machine. PITA? Yes, but it prevents you from needing their software on your computer. That's about the only solution I can think of that fits your needs right now.

    Huh, I signed up just yesterday and woke up to an invite email. Maybe you guys should try signing up with a different email address?

    I had my iphone 4s crap out on me this week and needed to pick up something cheap that would work on AT&T and found an Atrix HD. As much as Iwantto like it, I just can't really come to enjoy it. For $180, the hardware is worth it, but I'm realizing I need to be near power adapters all the time...

    It's felt so good to cut out fizzy drinks. I didn't realize how I'd only really kept them around for the texture while drinking them and actually hated the taste until I didn't have one for a couple weeks. I had one at a get-together and realized that it was absurdly sweet and I had no desire to...

    It's been quite nice this last week. I'm almost at 100% range of movement, and I'm going to get back into water aerobics in the next couple weeks as well after things calm down with work. Having 30-60 minutes that I can drop into my gym and get a light sweat going is great! I didn't even think...

    Those are exactly the exercises that my PT wants me to work on. I didn't want to pick up one of the exercise bands since it's not covered by my insurance, so I've just been using the machine at the gym when I go in to do cardio. I'm only doing ~15lbs with my right arm currently, and plan on...

    I'd like to find a ~4-4.2" GSM Android device, but haven't really seen anything on the market currently. It looks like theRAZR M XT905is about the only option on the market currently, but I can't seem to find a reasonable price on one in the US. What resellers are people using to buy unlocked...

    Good info. I don't have the time to spend at PT currently since I work during most of their office hours, but my gym has some pretty good equipment, and I'll probably pick up some dumbells (1-5lbs) for home as well. +nets for the encouraging words!

    Anyone have some suggestions for a person coming off of a shoulder injury? Most of my working out over the last 6 months was strictly climbing. I blew up my shoulder about 2 months ago and can finally get into a little bit of light exercise, but my range of movement and strength is still pretty...

    I've only been bouldering so far since it's a bit cheaper to get into, but if any of you guys from Portland ever find yourselves up in Seattle, shoot me a message and I'll give you one of my free passes toSeattle Bouldering Project. I'm rehabbing my shoulder currently, but hope to be climbing...

    How about a big fuck you? Considering how long it took me to come to terms with my illness, getting to a place where I could openly talk about my goals in my treatment is a pretty goddamn big deal. Belittling someone for that is pretty sad. Why don't you tell me how easy it is to go through PC...

    I've dug reading some/most of this thread so far, and just wanted to add a bit of my personal feedback. This year I was forced to make some pretty heavy changes to my diet or my oncologist was going to kick my ass. It's been a struggle, but between the diet change and bouldering 3-5 times per...

    I'll give that a swing today. I'm still using my 4S that I've borrowed from a friend until I get a phone completely set up since I need it for work. I've been on Straight Talk for a bit since TMOUS is iffy in the outlying areas of Puget Sound. So far it's been fantastic, and after taxes I'm only...

    I decided to just say "fuck it" to the Play Store and picked up a Nexus 4 locally. Paid $50 more than I would through Google, but it's better than waiting to see if I get one by Jan sometime. I'm still getting it set up, but I'm really digging the feel of the device so far. Any suggestions on...

    It seems most people on XDA are giving it good reviews. You get a few people there who obviously aren't telling the truth when they "set down the phone" and broke the back glass. I'm pretty sure the back isn't Gorilla Glass 2, but I'm hoping that it'll stand up over time. Mine is still on order...
