Re: Is There a Way to Increase Internal Storage on T-Mobile Smartphones?
Most devices do not have SD card support these days. It's not a T-Mobile/carrier thing. Cloud storage is up to you to use. T-Mobile doesn't have a in house solution, though T-Mobile does offer carrier billing for certain options like Google One. Internal storage is fixed. Manufacturers don't give options to upgrade storage. As far as storage tips. Do keep apps you don't use that are not part of the stock rom. Buy the devices with more storage when possible. Personally I don't buy a device that doesn't have at least 256GB of storage. A little overkill but I never have to worry about storage.16Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Bill of all lines
You may be the PAH on paper but depending how the person setup the lines only one is PAH. If you want your line to be PAH call T-Mobile have them reset all online accounts and redo setup on your line first and it'll ask if you want this line to be PAH for online purposes. I have mine separate for example I am PAH and my line is 1234 for example, but I have it setup where 1234 isn't the PAH in the event I am compromised. The PAH line is a line I never share the telephone number. If someone ever gets a hold of that telephone number then it has to someone from Inside T-Mobile giving to someone one or they were hacked.23Visto0likes0Comentarios- 54Visto1like0Comentarios
Re: I need to unlock Samsung phone without a password
IF your son set up the in case of death option. After a certain time period of inactivity it will assume the person has passed. It will send the email and password to the person of your choosing. If not Google will not give the password to anyone. You can get the data potentially however it is not promised. https://support.google.com/accounts/troubleshooter/6357590?hl=en34Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Since we pay off devices we should be able to unlock the bootloader.

The carrier is responsible for the firmware that comes out on the carrier locked phones which the carrier can allow for them to be unlocked in the firmware. Even the non carrier locked samsungs can be unlocked. The answer is not that I should go buy a pixel. The answer should be that it's my device and I should have to go buy a different one just to do what I want with what I paid for already. Be sides, these are the same companies that talk so much about protecting the environment. How much more environmentally friendly could you beto allowoem unlock so that phones that could still be used past the time the company stop doing updates don't end up as e-waste? Simply it's about the money. Samsung, among others, are notorious for sending updates to hinder devices to for you to upgrade. I don't see this any differently as they can say it's "for your good" Tmo is not going to say too much about it as it would mean they would keep making money on you having to upgrade. As I pointed since the S6 with the release of Samsung Pay the Snapdragon version has NEVER been officially unlock ANYWHERE other than China. XDA will even verify this. What you may be finding about AT&T and unlocked bootloaders is from the S5 and below. From 2 years ago AT&T Forums - Nothing on AT&T can be unlocked https://forums.att.com/conversations/phone-device-upgrades/bootloader-unlock/617798ea3a5e841cb234a81d From Samsung forums snapdragon versions US variants including unlocked. No unlockable bootloaders https://r1.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-s/unlock-the-bootloader/td-p/23973917 Also Just because you don't get updates doesn't magically break the device, and they are perfectly usable… I can a phones that are on older versions of the OS and work perfectly fine even after a decade even if they are on older versions of Android(I have device still on Oreo). I find it amusing no one complains about Apple pushing out updates without actually adding certain features to their older iPhones. Android OEM's could do the same. It's up to them to do so. It's their products and they chose not to. Rest of the world it's the OEM, but in the US it's the carriers. Carriers overseas do test updates just like here. The prices set for devices, and carriers don't pay for devices like you think they do. Carriers would rather NOT sell devices. Back when there was 2 year contracts did you know if you didn't upgrade devices they'd make more money per month than when you upgraded? Carriers used devices as a lossless product to get contracts. Much like gaming consoles are lossless products. Ironically IF people bought them unlocked and not from carriers would actually be better and devices will be supported better. That's for another debate…30Visto0likes0Comentarios
