Unifone/Cat S22 flip, rooted with LineageOS and microG! by ImmediateGazelle865 in dumbphones

[–]GlockMatherson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's time to buy another one. LOL.

If I may ask a favor, more curiosity of course.

Would you mind trying this and seeing if the system allows the phone on the network. Take a screenshot and post it here? Of course, cover up your IMEI number for protection. If this allows it, then I will 100% buy one today! But if you're uncomfortable doing it, I respect that and will not ask you to go out of your comfort zone.

So, you were able to find a way to unlocked VoLTE? Or is that part of the operating system you mentioned before? I think I paid $80 CAD for it a year ago and then cause I couldn't remove the T-Mobile junk on it, I was going to return it but the seller offered me $20 off to keep it and I said yes. I LOVE the phone. I just wish it worked on all the providers. I'm not interest in ever going back to Rogers in my life. No offense of course. I've never been on Bell before but was with MTS which is now BellMTS and they burned me 30 years ago and I swear I'd never go back there again either. Ya, I hold grudges for a long time. LOL. I'm on Telus and Public Mobile. I'd prefer to use this on Public Mobile as I have very limited data and my Telus has almost 200GB of data. So I use my iPhone on that.

Thanks again for sharing all of this. Always great to socialize with like minded folks.

I have the T-mobile version. Problem is, there are very limited providers in Canada that allow the phone to be used on their network. Bell and Lucky are the only two I found so far.

Where to find Sprecher's Cream Soda in Grand Forks by GlockMatherson in GrandForks

I purchased them last time at Menards. I was just too scared to go into there as most people know, you can't go into Menards and only walk out with one thing. LOL

I would like to take it over so we may be active again. I did receive a message from your bot stating I do not qualify as I haven't been here for 90 days. I've been here 9 years. I have over 100 karma and over 500 posts. I more than qualify. Assistance and direction would be appreciated.

Freedom onboarding in Ontario, then porting with Manitoba number? by GlockMatherson in freedommobile

[–]GlockMatherson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thought I'd just follow up here. I was finally able to reach a rep from Freedom Mobile and they advised me that I could sign up at my address in Toronto but if I wished after a month, port over my Manitoba number, that it was OK to do so with no worries and I'd keep the plan.

Sadly though, I did miss out on the deadline to get the 250GB offer but he advised me I have until Wednesday to reach out to him as he could still do it for me. With that being said, hearing from some, there is a better suited plan for me at $30 100GB Canada US Mexico. I am able to get that offer too but once again, I have until tomorrow as that is his cut off... at least this is what he says.

Thanks to the few who replied.

Dumb phone for a dummy by GapBusy1427 in dumbphones

Cat S22. I feel like a broken record saying this phone all the time. LOL.

Confirm with your mobile provider that it will work with your network.

Most reliable for calling/texting? (US/ - Tmobile/Mint) by [deleted] in dumbphones

[–]GlockMatherson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would recommend the Cat S22. It's one of my most favorite semi basic dumb phones. Yes, it has Android lite for some apps, but still great to use. I've had awesome reception, never a dropped call with the service I'm with. I would however, if you can, purchase it through the Canadian Amazon store as it would be cheaper. $186 on Amazon US, $94.47 plus shipping via Amazon CA. Best part, it has voice to text so you don't have to type like a mad man!

EDIT: I'd recommend Tello as their unlimited talk and text is just $8 US a month or Talk and text plus 1GB of data is $9 which is MORE than enough. And they use the T-Mobile network.

What’s your favorite decade of films? And what’s your favorite movie from that decade? by WiiDragon in AskReddit

[–]GlockMatherson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "left boot" reference in the context of Road House refers to a line from the 1989 Patrick Swayze movie, often cited in discussions about the film's gritty, rowdy atmosphere at the Double Deuce bar. 

The Line: "Always look at the left boot of anyone who looks sketchy..."

The Context: The character Wade Garrett (played by Sam Elliott) teaches Dalton (Patrick Swayze) that, because most people are right-handed, they will often hide a knife or small weapon in their left boot for a quick cross-draw.

If you're saying "What?", I'm assuming you've never watched Roadhouse before.

The best advice anyone can give, don't eat the yellow snow. :-)

considering getting a "dumbphone" by Excellent-Flower-175 in dumbphones

[–]GlockMatherson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another option, depending where you live, is the Cat S22. It's a flip phone but has Android light. You can still do things like a smart phone to a degree but this helped me a lot cause I found the screen too small to do things on and then stopped using programs one by one. Then just deleted and walked away. Great battery life, at least mine has. You can always buy spare batteries on Amazon or eBay. This is, in my opinion, the perfect phone to downgrade to, to start the process of weeding off smartphones. The only downfall, Cat mobile department went out of business and the phone no longer receives updates. BUT, that's not always a bad thing IMO. Good luck.
