How come cellular carriers won't block stolen mobile phones in the United States?
Last week, C.W. Nevius, a columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle, wrote an editorial on how to potentially curb smart-phone thieves. He argued that some carriers in foreign countries (e.g., Australia) will actually block mobile phones from their networks if reported stolen. (See: http://articles.sfgate.com/2011-12-03/bay-area/30473599_1_phone-companies-smart-phone-phone-thefts)
From the SF Chronicle: Australia uses something akin to a serial number, basically a 15-digit fingerprint found on

Sprint or Verizon?
I have verizon now but I don't have a data plan, however i am paying 10 bucks a month for unlimited texting. My plan ends at the end of December and I want a smartphone. Being a college student I would love to save money and Verizon's unlimited data plan is 30 bucks a month and stops at 2GB (i hear rumors of 4GB now). However I was searching on the internet and found out that Sprint has great smartphones and their unlimited data plan is not just actually unlimited(no cutoff mark or slowing you...

Has anyone heard if Verizon will offer the same feature for Google Voice customers and the Galaxy Nexus as Sprint does for their customers?
I recall in the Samsung Unpacked event, it was mentioned that the new Dialer app had tighter integration with Google Voice. It would be awesome if that integration was as a result of Verizon integrating with Google Voice as Sprint does. Any thoughts/ideas?

Anyone experiencing slow data speeds on your Sprint iPhone?
Lots of reports about it. I've seen some nasty stuff!

Is it still worth it to get the Arrive?
I'm hoping to move to a new carrier within the next few months, and I'm really considering Sprint. AT&T it automatically out for me, as 1. I don't trust AT&T coverage AT ALL. 2. AT&T generally isn't great in my area. Verizon is good, but some of their plans are a bit too expensive for my tastes. So I looked to Sprint. I want Windows Phone, and the only here is the Arrive. The Arrive isn't by definition old, it launches earlier this year, and has the usual specs for a Windows Phone...

Why is the Sprint iPhone 3G data speed so slow?
Is it growing pains due to the influx of new Sprint subscribers? Server issues? iPhone limitations? Deliberate on the part of Sprint? Can it be fixed and when? Currently getting 150-200 k down, which is significantly less than I was getting on my old AT&T 3GS.
Sprint upgrade eligibility
So I waited to get an EVO last year until September bc I was hearing rumors about a sprint iPhone coming in December/ January but I was tired with my old phone so I pulled the trigger on the EVO. I wanted to upgrade to the 4s but I don't have an upgrade available until July 2012. Anyone been able to talk their way into an upgrade with sprint or should I cancel my line and open a new one so that I can get an iPhone? Thanks!

Sprint lays out LTE strategy. Will you switch?
Engadget reports that Sprint will start to release LTE devices as of mid-2012:
http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/07/sprints-lte-plans-detailed-phones-tablets-and-modems-coming-b/
Given that they are now getting the iPhone, they have a good partnership with Android going, and they are the only carrier to still have unlimited data plans for their phones, will this entice more people to switch?

Is it just me, or was the addition of Sprint as a carrier in the US completely breezed over by Phil Schiller?
I would think the addition of the 3rd largest carrier in the US would be a bigger deal to announce than just an afterthought. It didn't even merit the Sprint logo on a slide! Is this because Apple simply didn't want to piss off the big 2?
Also, how is it like 8 hours after the event and still not even an iPhone mention on Sprint's site either?

Now that there is a unified iPhone 4S SKU for Verizon, Sprint and ATT, which carrier would you choose?
I live in the Denver area and currently have service with Verizon. The coverage is decent but I've read that the touted 14mbps will only work on ATT's GSM network. Would you switch?
I just found a few posts covering this question:

Will the Sprint iPhone 4s have call multitasking?
The only big feature with AT&T is the ability to have a call and do other tasks on the iPhone at the same time; will Sprint iPhones be able to do this?

Will iPhone 4S on Sprint be able to use as hot spot (tethering)?
I'm thinking of getting Sprint version iPhone 4S. I want to know if I can use it as hot spot, if yes will the phone has built in software or do I need to jailbreak it?

What is Sprint coverage like in the Bay Area?
Currently I'm a member of my parents' AT&T Family Plan. I moved to the bay area a few months ago but it's cheaper for me to pay them for my share of the family plan than to start my own plan. However, the news that the iPhone 5/4S may be coming to Sprint got me thinking that I could open my own plan (with the added benefit of getting the new-contract price on a new iPhone 5), and potentially also take advantage of Sprint's unlimited data plans and 4G coverage (if the new iPhone supports it)....

What are the options for unlimited tethering / hotspot use among the US carriers?
So I'm on Sprint currently, and they have announced that they're killing unlimited data use through their hotspot add-on plan, which I use. It's a major bummer, because I specifically opted for that option as it would let me use data freely without worrying about the 5gb cap that other carriers and other plans have. (I don't go crazy with it, but I do go over 5gb often) And now I'm right back where I started, with a cap. They won't even be grandfathering in users like myself who signed a...

Alternate housing options for Touch Pro2?
I have the European GSM HTC Touch Pro2. Understandably, I need(ed) my phone to be instantly available to me, rather than in some fancy-but-arduous case inside my pocket. So, the phone has gained some rather heavy (scuffs on plastic mostly) cosmetic damage. I would like to change the housing (y'know, the casing/shell (not some external one. the actual housing)). like changing the case of your computer) for this phone (despite it no longer being my primary phone), but the best seller I have come...

Sprint rumored to provide unlimited data plans for iPhone 5?
It looks like Sprint may continue to offer unlimited data plans to users who buy an iPhone 5 when it's (supposedly) released next month. Considering that both AT&T and Verizon have done away with their unlimited plans (unless one has been grandfathered in), is this enough to make you switch to Sprint?
Do you think Sprint will eventually be forced to go the way other carriers have done and ultimately get rid of unlimited data?
