Yeah nice try bud. I'm not berating anyone, what the people who are involved in this fiasco are doing may be legal in an "Unlimited Data" stand point, but ethically wrong. Instigating a party of people to use more data than they normally would on a regular basis in an effort to obtain some level of personal satisfaction by 'sticking it to the man' bears no ethical rights. You all know exactly what you're getting when you sign up with a cell carrier. I don't agree with them locking the bootloaders either as I would love to have new radio's etc... but antagonizing this is WRONG! You are the kind of people that WILL mess things up for ALL the consumers with Verizon. Please don't be naive enough to think they CAN'T read these same posts and track them based on your usage. Again legally this may work as you may have an unlimited plan, but participating in this immature act of retaliation is childish at best. Most of us are grown men and women here and should live our lives that way and not be so petty. If you aren't happy with locked bootloaders, get a new device or new cell provider.


I'm not gonna even bother. I hope your posts make you feel better about yourself.

I will be supporting Droid's to some extent. Keeping the Droid RAZR Utility updated is something I want to do, but I will not be making any more Droid RAZR Roms. I switched to T-Mobile and got a free HTC One S, however I plan on getting the Intel-Inside RAZR M XT890 soon.

Please do not Personal Message me for help or troubleshooting. They will be ignored. Post in threads or start one in Q&A sections.

You know Sugar Coated, I have about enough of your holier than everyone else act. You do it in the chatroom, and now you are doing it in the forums. I wouls suggest that you go find another forum to be a part of, and I assure you, no one, and I mean no one, will notice that you have left. I really doesn't matter to any of us if Verizon notices us or not, what you have failed to see is that we have a community that has come together, and since you can not, or will not be a part of this community in a non-problematic way, then I suggest you move on.

I'm going to have to agree what Brian said. Just keep in mind that you can't control anyone's behavior. Yes, some of us do stupid things in our lives, but haven't you? This is just a silly game for us to play that's not going to affect Verizon one bit. I suggest that the subject be dropped, and please try keeping comments like that to yourself. it's for the best.

KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON...or panic and freak out! :D


EDIT: I have Brian's number now :) (see screenshot) :P

HaHa! I am sure there is someone out there who has used more data than me, they are just keeping quiet, and are going to swoop in at the end, FTW. That being said, I will continue to use my data like crazy, and yes, I am shooting for 1 TB. :P :D

If you use a TB of data you deserve more than just a $25 dollar gift card.

Well folks, here is the final tally for my usage, unfortunately I fell short of my 1TB goal due to some medical issues thae out me in the hospital and thus lessened my usage. In honor of Matts disdain for VZW, I will continue to monitor and use my data until the end of the month and see what I use for september. I averaged 27 gb a day.
