@worldtourSHEI Got to "Settings" then "Location & Security" then "set up screen Lock" You'll have the option of setting up a 4 digit password, swype password, etc
What are some useful apps to get on the transform i just got it a day ago. and i downloaded taskkiller and the apps keep popping back on is there a way to fix that or prolong battery life
@rodchamem if you go on the desktop portion of your phone and hold down any empty background (no shortcut icon) a window will pop up labeled "add to home screen", click on "shortcuts" then scroll down to "settings" and select the "Running services" shortcut. From here you have the option to not only kill the service but actually stop it. As for the apps, I'm messing around with the USB tethering, so if Im in an area that doesnt have internet, I plug the cell phone to my computer and i'm good :)
Hi,thanks for the videos..I have had this phone for a month or so but it seems over the last week the battery seems to die quickly and the phone gets kinda hot...I don't have alot of apps the gps is off ...any thoughts?
@prmlscreem Not sure about the hot part but like most droid phones after continuous use, the battery tends to lose its touch in power, the only scheme I can think that would save your phone from draining so fast....use "auto-dim", turn off your wifi, and if you don't have to sync your e-mails automatically like gmail, etc, try switching it to manually
@lutcher95 yup, the flash on the back with the camera is basically the flash light when you download the flashlight app....that light is verrrryyy bright btw
does the screen turn on when u get a msg coz i got the same phone n for some reason it make the noise when u get the tx msg but the screen dont turn on just a red dot i the l corner i got it two days with this phone n i dont know if is working properly can u plz tell me....i only got 3 days to return it bak if is not working the guy from the store said is normal but i dont think is normal gettting a msg n the screen dont turn on is like getting a call n the screen dont turn on right ?
U can but like most camera phones, that have are 3mp the more you zoom in the more disoriented its gonna look..its not bad but its not like it would look during the normal view
@THEOFFICIALTODALUTE yea man, same rules apply, just as long as you dont have the wifi running all day lik I do....but even the life of this phone is crazy good, and I had it since it came out
@ryanwigfall I'm pretty sure there is, the quickest way that I found is an app called zedge. It allows you to download custom notification music to your phone so you can use it as a notification ringtone. What I noticed is that when you connect your phone to your computer to access the SD card in the phone, there is a folder labeled zedge and another folder under it called "notifications" where it stores the music, so if you're store your music in there, you'll have the option to store ur music
@MPATRICK310 lol....thats the CDMA 3g speed with the processor, its really good ....beat the Iphone 4s on sprint during a speed test..no lie....hmmm I should post that video too :)
im getting mine thursday, too bad boost does not have somthing compared or simular to facetime....i noticed boost doesent make phones nice like iphone or other phones with real big screens and all the bells and whistles...they make border line smart phones, just enough to be on the bottom shelf. i know it has to do with them selling cheap plans so they keep the phone close to that. too bad...if they made an elite phone they would be killin the game.
@prhartford there's speculation that Iphones (lower end models) will be released to non contract phone providers...so that will be interesting, sometime next year I hear. Modmyi.com I believe is the website that gives people the inside scoope. As for face time....meh, basically skype, fring and or tango, pick ur app, if another user has it...its basically the same thing
Hey the LG esteem go hard tho its hefty feeling nice n hands feels good like my hand had love at first site lol. Yeah heard another LG dual core and Samsung dual core. Only problem is sorry ass srvice. The service is terrible man I tried them 5x
There more foe high end fones and the iPhone would be good competition and probably be 60 a month and metro PC's is release 4.3 dual core phones. Next year first semester as of now.
Boostmobile definitely need to step game up. To me there behind
Hey bro were did u see that rumar Can u post up link I wanna see that it would be cool I'd like to get that for my girl but I think a phone like that will goto vm. First
yo milt whatsup....nice reviews man keep it up....and did you hear about the new zte warp phone boost mobile coming out with on Nov 2 (4gb internal, 512 ram, 5 mega pixel camera, adobe flash etc) I was deadset on get the transform until hearing about this one...what do you think
@prettygrittty Yeah, I saw that phone and ehhh didn't strike me as a go getter, I video chat a lot and it has no VGA camera, no keyboard. So its like the Prevail all over again with a higher MP camera and internal memory. At first I saw it on there , I was really thinking about getting it to try it out....then I saw the whole landscape size. Its gonna look a bit weird but to each is own.
honestly this is nice fone damn i wish it was bigger though smh shit a 4 inch screen and least 280 smh man idk but i think im getting this over the zte warp big time zte isnt really known for making nice fones like that it should be time for the zte warp to come out on boost heard its 250 4.3 inch display 5mp flash no keyboard and 1ghz snap dragon
@Maronello92 and also no VGA camera...I was thinking about getting that phone to try it out then the whole length in size would feel funny around my waste....landscape??? lol its a rumor going around that Boost Mobile is thinking about buying the lower end IPhone model coming out next year....we'll see
@Hard2findflavors honestly because of the gig processor, I just set the Advanced Task Killer application to aggressive so any idle applications left on while the phone is turned off will turn off to conserve battery and terminate unnecessary usage of the phone. As a precaution I downloaded "Lookout" app which scans apps that are downloaded to determine if they are safe to install.
Does it have adobe flash....I watch nextflix on my toy...that's a must....thanks babe...I m stuck between Motorola triumph ...and this one.....own a boost prevail
@bluebird1ist oh okay, so yeah it does have Adobe Flash and if you have the Prevail, with this phone phone, you'll notice the response time is a lot faster when you navigate between programs. You also have a lot more internal memory (1 G worth) to install apps on the phone which is a major upgrade.
@inezproma because of the gig processor, you'll notice that the swype is more accurate compared to the Prevail. I do a little between both swype and the keyboard but I find myself using the keyboard more. All in all, the texting is pretty fast
@caustin18 I"m pretty sure at some point it will depending on how many applications you have open but I have my advanced task killer on aggressive and I never seen it freeze so far
Oh also, i asked way at the beginning of this if the boost ID icon could be changed back to the normal internet icon, and i have not been able to find a way.
The good news is instead you can just install the "GO Launcher EX" app for free and it will change the launcher bar for you, as well as give you tons of customization options for your home screens as well as giving you a sliding launcher bar with multiple more slots.
As far as the battery life goes... ive been using this for about 4 hours surfind the web, watching you tube, messing with apps, talking and texting and so on... its still at 50% charge.
Compared to the last android i had, thats pretty awesome.
I am very happy with the phone. Its not the high dollar super spec phone where you need a monthly contract and 100+ payments, but it performs exceptionally well for what it is.
I was even using it like a tom-tom while driving earlier..
@TopClassLadyy figured it wouldn't , the phone has to be rooted otherwise I get that message indicating that the phone is not "compatible" with the app
Oh ok kewl man I hope the keyboard is like epic and og transform man. Galaxy n dulge keyboard is just Smh horrible and the intercept layout of keys was horrible hop this phone is way better shit I like flat keys but not over flat shit indulge was flat so flat beneath the plastic
@XXDIVANIQUAXX if you root the phone, and tether it then the phone can act as a wifi hot spot multiple devices but I haven't found a root program....yet ;)
Hey man look I need to know this. Is the ultra keyboard like galaxy indulge. Like is it super flat to were u text u can feel the plastic. Fuck ma. Smh so yeah does it have grip feeling to it
@Maronello92 actually, out of all the keyboard phones I've had this one has a rubber feel to it, so it doesn't hurt fingers as your texting, easy to use
@raymond110 Tried the test and thats a big fat no, primarily because you're using the 3g service during the call, so unfortunately no, but you can receive and send text messages during a call
@Fritz075 yeah thats correct, thats why I mentioned if you don't mind just going to the store and getting the apps you want then you'll be saving a lot of space as oppose to the ID feature grabbing a bunch of apps you may or may not use
@Fritz075 oh yeah, you can interchange it back to the default settings or the custom settings of the phone, it gives you the option each time you select Mobile ID
@Justrockn1 Skype and Tango works great with or without the wifi connection, its not HD quality picture but you're able to see the person clear and the service is pretty cool.
@allotherstaken3 I believe I had the flash feature in the first video I did when I went on Boston Market .com but yes flash works. WIfi works but if you're speaking of tethering, I believe you have to root the phone in order to use it as a wifispot, I haven't tried it yet with the apps from the app store but when I do I"ll let you know if it needs to be rooted or not.
