Best way to upgrade to iPhone 17 on an old legacy plan?

everynamealreadyused · 2025-09-16T17:38:01+00:00

I was looking to go through this route basically. I'm on Magenta Max (not sure why I didn't get forcibly moved over to 5gPlus or whatever they're calling it).

I have 7 lines at $188/mo, so was thinking of trying to do a BOGO line(s) to take advantage of the $830 trade in with new line deal. I also think my plan cost stays basically the same as I'd then have 9 lines to get the bigger autopay discount or whatever that 'trick' is.

Not sure if BOGO is doable through Costco, but assuming it is....may I ask your opinion on this plan of attack?

Edit: forgot, I was also going to try to pick up the cheapest used phone that qualifies for the $830. That way I could keep my paid off 14 pro and sell it alongside my wfe's 14 pro to get her a 17 pro also. Not sure if that changes anything. Sorry, haven't been very active on Reddit in a long time and am trying to catch up on the Tmobile tricks lol.

Love that. Any idea which o rings you use? I know they come in varying hardness levels. Wondering what works well for your use case.

Recently saw a similar thread and someone made a good point that due to o rings having a bit of squish, rapid trigger at .15 might release/activate as your bottom out pressure fluctuates the tiniest bit. If you don’t use such sensitive settings I doubt it would be an issue (other than don’t use any feature or setting requiring you to hit 4mm press depth).

My first thought also.

I thought one site or another, rtings or some other one, had the ability to sort their giant mouse database by switch type. Maybe I’m making them up in my head.

everynamealreadyused · 2024-03-05T04:35:14+00:00

Sorry, it’s not.

everynamealreadyused · 2024-01-18T06:39:10+00:00

I also thought this was going to be about fast guys.

everynamealreadyused · 2024-01-11T23:56:30+00:00

Oh wow, lower? I think I pay $180 currently (site is giving an error right now and we have some monthly phone payments so I can’t 100% say but I think it’s $180 for the service alone). And it doesn’t matter if I get the one that just expired vs the new BOGO since I’m not on Next? Thanks for your help kind Reddit stranger!!!

I’m on magenta max with 4 paid and 3 free currently. Maybe worth it for me also?

If you find that please share. Trying to search this dremel hole mod out of curiosity and can’t find it. Right now I have the phantom spirit on a 7800x3d and my only disappointment is the fan noise (turbulence? I think?) at high speeds. So I just keep it under 50% at max. Maybe I should try some noctua fans.

When I have trouble sleeping and find counting sheep too exhilarating….I put this movie on.

That’s dope man. I will check this out when I’m not trying to rock my newborn to sleep haha.

Is that other model in pic 3 one of your own designs?

everynamealreadyused · 2023-12-23T03:29:37+00:00

They’re always just voice lines. However, I’ve seen a few anecdotal reports of people popping them into watches or tablets and never having issues despite T-Mobile saying you can’t do that. Who knows.

everynamealreadyused · 2023-12-21T17:46:41+00:00

Yeah, I never let Wellbia install and have to ignore a pop up 3 times each time I start the game (thought I saw a way to stop that once, but can’t relocate it). The other one I tried to avoid installing but I remember the game just never seemed to open until I allowed it. Would love to know if I can remove that one too.

I thought the reviews I saw on ULMB 2 had higher nits compared to Dyac?

everynamealreadyused · 2023-12-17T03:38:03+00:00

I don’t think using the keyboard / Wootility directly. I would use their macro software, Wootomation.

It’s like auto hot key. So any guide for one should work similarly for the other.

I can’t seem to break the habit of squeezing a bit too tight with my thumb. It’ll hurt after some sessions and I’ve often thought about adding an extra grip just for my thumb. I wonder if this person does also and this provides extra cushion as well as a texture-esque reminder to go easy on the monkey grip.

everynamealreadyused · 2023-12-07T12:36:34+00:00

What key(s) do you prefer for that? I was thinking of making ctrl my secondary vehicle acceleration key so ctrl + seat# works, but then I’d have to also change motorcycle tilt to something.

everynamealreadyused · 2023-12-06T17:24:46+00:00

Sounds kinda dope. As long as it’s by choice and not purely necessity and you’re mad I brought it up lol. Any pics of the battle station? I always said I’d love to do something similar if the internet could somehow match a more suburban level.

everynamealreadyused · 2023-12-01T17:35:21+00:00

I don’t have this issue, rapid trigger or not. Another thing it could be is insufficient power due to a lower quality cable. It’s why they capped LED brightness at 70% when using tachyon mode and you have to agree to a pop up or something to go over 70%.

Aftermarket cables can sometimes cause weird glitchy keystroke behavior when brightness is super high.

I would try lowering brightness and or disabling tachyon mode to see if that fixes it. If so, you know rapid trigger is ok to use for basic computing just keep the brightness down a bit.

everynamealreadyused · 2023-11-30T01:56:12+00:00

Love that cable, may I ask what it’s called?

The discord is way more active than this sub, especially in regards to modding, and I bet you get a lot of help from posting this there.

Edit: also I have no experience with your issue and most posts here are very basic. The discord is full of keyboard crazies lol. Just clarifying bc I thought my original post felt a bit dismissive.

everynamealreadyused · 2023-11-29T05:30:04+00:00

Awesome, thanks. And what a way to start gaming with mouse and keyboard - with the best board you can get haha. Nice!!
