Hi all,
I figured it might be useful to make a post about this since I found limited information when googling. I initially bought the Azon 7 to upgrade from my Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Out of the box I was very pleased with it, and then after some clever wordplay (outright lying) at the Verizon store I was able to get them to activate a nano-SIM for me with my number since I didn't have one yet. When I put the nano-Sim into the A7 everything was great at first. I had complete functionality, including LTE with the known roaming-icon bug. Then, the problems started. I'd lose LTE and it wouldn't come back unless I toggled airplane mode or restarted the phone. After doing these fixes the amount of time that I had LTE got less and less, until eventually the fixes stopped working. I read lots of supposed workarounds about messing with the APN and the radios, etc, etc, and nothing worked for me. I was hopeless, so I made a thread on here. Board user FlyerAndy responded with a fix that had worked for him. You shut down your phone, put in a GSM SIM, restart, and then let the phone get those settings for a couple minutes. Then you shut down, put your VZW SIM back in, reset a time or two, and it should be working great. This worked flawlessly for me. My phone's radios toggled as necessary and I was pretty much always on LTE. Everything was perfect and I had no issues whatsoever...
I was very excited for the Nougat roll-out, so I downloaded the update immediately. This was a big mistake. Immediately I began experiencing the same issue as before. Not only that, but the phone was laggy and a lot of apps that I used regularly were choppy and clunky. I tried the GSM SIM trick again, and this time it did not work. I poured over these forums looking for any trick and trying everything that was suggested. Nothing worked. So, I downloaded the latest version of Marshmallow and reverted my phone back to that previous version by putting it on my SD card and accessing the bootloader menu and installing android from my SD card. As soon as I went back to Marshmallow everything was fine again. I happily used Marshmallow for months. Then last night I saw somebody talking about this most recent ZTE update and that it had some promising bug fixes. So, I figured "why the hell not?" and backed my phone up, prepared a file with the version of Marshmallow that I've been running, and accepted the update on my phone and held my breath... Once the update was complete I immediately had no signal again, so I went into settings and went straight to the new version tab to get the latest version. Once this update was complete it was amazing. I had full LTE with no "roaming" icon. Everything was working flawlessly, except a little lagging here and there. So, I went and wiped the cache partition, and that legitimately fixed every issue. Right now the phone is amazing. I'm looking forward to messing with the daydream VR.
TLDR; If you are a Verizon customer, there are ways to make your phone work great with their network. If you are a Verizon customer still using Marshmallow, update to Nougat, then go get the next update immediately after the Nougat install, and you should be all good.
Thanks for the heads up and the info @thewillneverdie its great to hear VZW is back up and working good on the A7 for you
Thanks for your post on the Gear S3 @musicdjm. Because of your post I decided to order one.
Great write up and excellent info for Verizon users. Thanks so much for sharing it.
Hi, That goes for the people that uses Straight Talk thur Verizon. I can't even used this phone so I'm using it as a tablet and camera for my pictures now. I also can't used it for ATT or T-mobile consider the service never works for me at my workplace.
So, now I am really confused. When I switched from AT&T to VZW the said my ZTE AXON 7 was NOT compatible w/ their network. Ended up buying an S8+ and having a used AXON 7 sitting around.
Every month I go the VZW 'bring your own phone' web page, type in my IMEI Number and the page comes back as not compatible. While I've sent them 1/2 a dozen tweets about approving the AXON 7, all they say is check back next month.
So, how are people getting AXON 7s to work on VZW I'd love to give it to my Sister, who is on VZW, but her phone has a broken screen.
Please advise.

Hey @jk_mi and welcome to the Z-Community.
While the A7 isn't officially compatible with VZW, as you can see by @thewillneverdie's post, it still works pretty well with their network.
So if I were.to take the SIM from S8+ and test it in the AXON 7, I may get results? Positive ones, not a meltdown of my SIM👽
@jk_mi said:

Just to clarify, I have personally never used the A7 with VZW, but some people say it works for them.
It's possible there may be some issues, but it depends on how exactly you use the device.
Sometimes people say they can't get VZW sim to work, but then put a different GSM sim in first, then switch to VZW sim, and then it works. It's kind of a just try it and see kind of thing.
I seriously doubt that it will fubar your sim card though.
What I find totally interesting is...I've been on B29 forever debating on whether to download the many updates so, I went for it and just upgraded all the way to B35. I haven't had to do anything to APN Verizon etc. It all works. For some reason I haven't had to do anything other than update and Verizon still shows up working on my Axon 7 phone. I want to add that I have not rooted my cell that's a bit beyond my abilities lol. I even factory reset my cell after the B35 update and VERIZON WORKS!
Hello all, this is my first anything on the ZTE Forums, very nice community, lots of passionate people. I personally am still on my parent's phone plan, Verizon, and was looking for a good, decently cheap phone as I'm a college student. So I have the ZTE Axon 7, and this post is what spearheaded my decision to get the phone. Now I'd like to share my experience with the phone on Verizon to let anyone who wants to know be able to use it.
So basically, When I started with my phone, I had kept it on marshmallow as I was awaiting something before I could activate it, I'll explain in a moment. I recommend you do NOT update your phone until you are ready to activate it with a SIM Card.
1.Get an active SIM Card. Your previous phone will probably have one. For me, my phone had a MicroSIM in it, which I thought was a problem considering the NanoSIM Slot on the Axon 7, but an $11 SIM Card cutter off Amazon does the job perfectly.
2. update your phone to the latest Android version. Ensure you also update your MiFavor to the most recent version as well
3. Shut Off the Phone.
4. Insert the SIM Card.
5. Turn on the phone. You may have to restart it a few times.
6. Under settings, go to data, and make sure all your data settings are turned on for your SIM Card
You should now have a ZTE Axon 7 on Verizon! No roaming Icon, full LTE, and call and text. And if you saved all your contacts on your SIM, then you will have your contacts transferred over as well.
Attached are screenshots of my top bar showing LTE, which were taken on the Android info screen to prove they are real.
I hope this helped anyone who needed it.

The Student Desk of the 1950s and 1960s
New Challenges for the Department
As Colgate University expanded its curriculum with the addition of new courses and disciplines, the role of the Department of Classical Languages became less prominent, and it began to face new challenges in the 1950s and 1960s. For those who did wish to study classical languages and literature, courses continued to focus on many of the same authors, such as Virgil, Cicero, and Homer. If pursuing a Classics degree, a student was expected to complete Elementary Greek in his first year, reading selections from Xenophon's Anabasis as had been the case since the earliest years of the institution. No Elementary Latin course was, however, offered: the curriculum assumed that college students had acquired an elementary knowledge of Latin in high school. Upon the completion of intermediate level language instruction, majors in the Classics would take several advanced language courses that focused on more difficult authors, such as Lucretius, Demosthenes, Petronius, and Thucydides.
A New Approach
With declining enrollments, fewer language courses began to be offered on a yearly basis. The course offerings that were available to students began to diverge from the traditional focus on Greek and Latin texts. In 1964, the department no longer offered courses on the Greek New Testament, clear evidence of a shift from the original mission of Colgate University. Instead, the department began to include more courses that focused on Greek and Roman literature in translation, mythology, and ancient history. Students continued coursework on Greek art and architecture. Professor Robert L. Murray began offering January Term trips to Athens so that students could explore Greek art and architecture at first hand. Fortunately, the development of courses that did not require any background in Greek or Latin language allowed the department to become more accessible to all students. In response to this change, the department instituted a major in Classical Studies in 1969.
Classical Architecture Projects from the 1960s
In the 1960s students were focusing on more than just language. These student-made projects reflect the expanded curriculum and the interest in the architecture, art, and material culture of the ancient world. These are all models of ancient Greek temples: the Athenian Treasury at Delphi, the Hephaisteion near the Athenian agora, and the temple of Athena Nike on the Acropolis in Athens. The temples were recreated with close attention to architectural motifs and were used as 3D teaching tools as compared to the usual 2D photographs of temples.

115th Congress Accomplishments
FAA Reauthorization Bill
- I successfully passed the bipartisan, five-year Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Reauthorization Act of 2018 to provide long-term and predictable funding for the FAA, improve aviation safety, address workforce needs and advance vital research in the aviation field.
- The bill includes my provision to safeguard funding for FAA's Environmental Sustainability program. Cuts to this program would impact the development of new aircraft technologies to reduce noise impacts on local communities.
- The bill also includes my proposal directing the FAA to convene a Youth Access to American Jobs in Aviation Task Force to develop recommendations on how to best encourage high school students to enroll in aviation manufacturing, maintenance and engineering-focused apprenticeships and career technical education programs.
FAA Veterans Transition Improvement Act
- I authored and successfully passed legislation to expand paid sick leave benefits to veterans hired by the FAA.
Estuary Restoration
- I founded and serve as co-chair of the bipartisan Congressional Estuaries Caucus.
- I successfully secured $26.7 million for the National Estuary Program to help communities protect, restore and maintain their estuaries.
Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund
- I have long championed the Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund (PCSRF), which supports the conservation and recovery of Pacific salmon across rivers, watersheds and coastal habitats on the West Coast.
- I secured $65 million to support salmon recovery in the Pacific Northwest.
Puget Sound Adjacent Waters Restoration Program
- I passed an amendment that bolsters resources for the Puget Sound Adjacent Waters Restoration program to help restore the tributaries, waters and shorelines of the Puget Sound. My amendment doubles the per-project funding cap to $10 million and raises the overall authorization level an additional $20 million.
School Safety
- As co-founder of the School Safety Caucus I secured $150 million for Secure Our Schools grants. This is more than nine times the amount that has ever been funded. The grants will empower schools to focus on best practices for school safety and investments to help meet their unique safety needs.
Impact Aid
- I have been a tireless advocate for bolstering the Impact Aid program to help school districts that serve military and Native American families make up for lost property tax revenue.
- I temporarily circumvented a previous ban in the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) on in vitro fertilization for veterans.
- Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) announced that veterans who have been wounded in the line of duty can now access in vitro fertilization (IVF) through the VA. I passed a provision that enabled the VA to temporarily circumvent the previous ban on IVF for veterans.
- I strengthened the HUD-VASH program and successfully secured 73 additional housing vouchers in the Second District to help veterans find stable housing and get on the path to independence.
Child Abuse Accountability
- I worked to ensure military retired pay, like other federal retired pay, is subject to garnishment to satisfy a court order in a case of child abuse.
Asia-Pacific Engagement
- As co-chair of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Caucus (APEC) to support U.S. engagement in the Asia-Pacific region, I worked to permanently authorize the APEC travel business cards to provide fast-track immigration lanes for travelers who do business with APEC countries.
Constituent Outreach
- I have held twenty-nine public events: eight town halls, nine community coffees, 12 forums (includes senior forums, veteran forums, transportation forums and gun violence forum)
- My office has responded to 85,318 constituent letters to date

What I've Been Reading - W/E 01 MAR 2019
Farewell Re-Read:
Finished off The Body in the Bath House and put that in the bye-bye bag; started off Damned Whores and God's Police by Anne Summers (Penguin 2002 revised edition, ISBN 0-14-028876-7)
Still plugging away at Frederica, but I'm having to put it on the side for Madame Bovary for my uni studies.
For Uni:
Dickens, Charles (1836). Sketches by Boz, London, (publisher unknown), "A Visit To Newgate".
Earnshaw, Stephen (2010). Beginning Realism, Manchester & New York, Manchester University Press, pp14 - 37 (Chapter 1)
Plus the first 166 pages of Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert (Penguin 2003 edition, ISBN 978-0-140-44912-9). I have to be at least halfway through the book by the beginning of the week after next (university week 3, this was week 1).
(I still have a chapter out of "North and South" by Elizabeth Gaskell to be reading as well, plus another chapter of the book for my creative writing course).
New Game + by Tayani - P5 AU WIP, the truth continues to out.
Flunking by volti - P5 WIP; more family stuff
A Dream We Found Huddled Under a Cloak of Stars by AyuOhseki - P5 AU WIP; and a knock-down, drag-out brawl ensues.
To Catch a Tiger Cub, One Must First Enter the Tiger's Lair by AyuOhseki - P5 AU WIP; stripping for fun and privacy
Phantom Stardust by TheWabbajackX - P5 WIP, covering the parts of the game from December through February.
Don't Make Me Delete This Chatroom by Dots - P5 chatroom AU WIP - this episode is all about eggs, for some reason.
Just Like New by Piano - FF7 AU WIP - the one where Cloud is an android who wants to protect his human friends.
A Kind of Magic by XpaperplaneX - Final chapter of a WIP. Overall, I was a bit disappointed with this one, mainly because it was mostly written as PWP, but then tried to grow a plot at the very end, with very little set-up or discussion anywhere else in the fic.
Crimson by Dowdz - P5 WIP retelling which is getting steadily more and more AU. Grim and gritty retelling, I think is where the author is going here.
Once More, With Feeling by beesandtoes - P5 Groundhog Day AU WIP. Maybe there's a way out of the loop...
It's a Compliment, Really by Moczo - P5 Porn parody AU, still hilarious, still a hoot, and I'm looking forward to finding out what happens next.
Involuntary Downtime by Muccamukk - Marvel Avengers Adventures Steve/Tony hurt/comfort fic. Cute and nice.
Resistance by WritingSoul - P5, a bit of a look at what might possibly provide resistance to "lust" attacks.
perhaps even friends by hirokiyuu - P5 New Game+ AU WIP - this time it's Goro Akechi who gets offered the chance to try the whole business over again and see what happens when he changes things.
Lucky Cat by Regenbogen - P5 AU WIP - the protagonist is a were-cat. So far the execution seems to be living up to the idea.
I should note that a lot of these fanfics landed in my lap on my Monday or Tuesday - was there a public holiday in the USA on Monday this week?
So that's what I've been reading this week... and I've also been trying to clean the house in time for a rental inspection on Thursday morning next week, and come up with ideas for a presentation about living independently while autistic and how this might differ from doing so while neurotypical (presentation happens in uni week 4, so I have a couple of weeks to pull things together). Everything happens at once around here...

As simple strategy to create more success! By Douglas Vermeeren
As people it is our human nature to select the activities and habits in our life to lead with our highest values. One of the disappointments that we create for ourselves is that we try to fool ourselves into chasing and pursuing things that don't matter to us at deepest levels. We often pursue the wrong things because we take messages from those around us or the media as to what we are told we should enjoy and appreciate. Authenticity to our highest values will create results and happiness.
This can be seen in immediate gratification choices too. People grab what they think they want in the short term rather than what they really value in the long term.
Immediate gratification choices rarely add to our satisfaction in the long term. Most of the time they actually create regrets. They are generally based on what we value in the short term rather than support our long term vision of who we want to be and what we want to have. Those are long term decisions.
Most powerful opportunities and moments of greatness appear as people focus on sticking close tot heir long term values.
Make some decisions today that will allow you to identify your long term values as they manifest themselves each day as the decisions that you need to make. If you decide before the moment of decision arrives you will begin to see greater success!

Success is not a solo enterprise – Douglas Vermeeren, #1 Passive Income Coach
Most people make the mistake of thinking that whatever they want in life they must do by themselves. In fact, there is even a famous saying that many people have misunderstood. 'If it's meant to be – it's up to me.' While it's true you need to be the one to initiate what you want, and you even need to be the one to organize how it will be done – wealth and success is actually a team sport.
And the more help and support you can find the easier it is to create. All of the most successful people in the world have created the results they have achieved by finding smart people to have help them. T
hat's how they did, that's how I did it. That's how you'll do it.
Leveraged the best support for the people around you and success will come quicker.

You can't hit a target you can't define – Personal Power Mastery with Douglas Vermeeren
Most people have a hard time creating success because they never consider what success really looks like for them. Without a clue of what it looks like they lack a direction of what to do first to get there. And even if they happen to start down a correct path they have no idea what to improve or adjust along the way. You've probably heard the saying that a problem well defined is already half solved, The same is true in success. If you really know what you want half the challenge of creating it will be solved and you can more easily recognize what you need to do to make it happen. Take some time today to think more carefully about what you really want and don't just passively wait and watch for things to happen. #personalpowermastery #ppm #douglasvermeeren #success #achiewvement #goalssetting
Power quote 8 – Douglas Vermeeren – Personal Power Mastery
Life is incredible. Think about the air coming through your nose. Your heart beats. The warmth of the sun on your face. Your ability to chose. These are all things we overlook or often take for granted. Life is amazing!
Recognize your life is a blessing.
Once you do that you gain power to change your situation. You can't expand your lifestyle until you appreciate your life!
Everything around you can change – Douglas Vermeeren
Everything around you can change
By Douglas Vermeeren, Creator of Personal Power Mastery
Too often people become discouraged because they are caught in the middle of a less than perfect situation. Sometimes these circumstances can even be painful. They are certainly not inspiring and often times do not give the individual involved the tools or beliefs that things can be better. we are highly influenced by what we surround ourselves with and these things often limit us rather than empower us. But are we trapped by where we are and who we spend time with. Is there no hope to live the dreams we have if we are surrounded by challenging circumstances?
The simple answer is YES! Things around you can change. Here are a few significant ways that negative circumstances can change. And quickly…
- Change the way you look at things and they will change. When we see things as a challenge they stay that way. But when we look at them as stepping stones to a new situation they become that. I do recognize that some situations are just difficult to paint positive. In some situations such as a abuse that may be near impossible. And quite frankly when something is just plain wrong you should not look at it in an acceptable manner. But even in those severe negative situations you do have a choice in how you will respond and react. Rather than look for a way through LOOK FOR THE WAY OUT! On this note I also want to mention that there is support, help and loving people who will be there for you to make this escape. Start looking at it in the way that you know there are people who will support your exit. You are not alone. Even this shift of perception will give you strength and courage to start to create the changes you need.
- Raise your standards. As you change what you will tolerate your entire situation will change. If you decide that you deserve better or more in your specific situation you will start to become more. As You become more you will begin to attract the things that will change your situation for the better. Most people settle for their current situation and so their current situation continues. If you don't level up your life you will always get what you've always gotten.
- Get moving. Action always changes a situation. Results appear as a result of an equation. Things around you will change in the same way. 1 + 1 = 2. You have control over one of the 1s in this equation. It's you. If you decide to raise your standards to a 2 and act that way the end result is this equation 2 + 1=3. The end result has changed. You can also choose to not participate which turn turns your 1 into a 0. 0+1=1. The equation is changed again. recently one of of my students shared that their marriage wasn't going as planned. There was a lot of conflict and challenge. We had this discussion about equations and she decided that even if her partner was not going to be loving and kind she could be. Even if her partner didn't value some of the things she did she would still live her live with those values. So in some circumstances she became a 2 in their 1 +1 and a 0 in their 1+1. As you can imagine things changed in both circumstances. In this case her spouse decided he needed to change his behaviour to keep up with the new and improved version of his spouse and this story now has a happy ending. That is not always the case, sometimes the changes to where you know you need to be result in a recognition that you and the other person are more empowered apart. as you create yourself in the way you know you should be those answers will appear.
Change is required for success and satisfaction in life. When the things around you begin to conspire to help you magical and marvellous things begin to happen. Everything around responds to what you do next. Both in positive and negative ways. So determine carefully what you want and then use these 3 concepts to shift your reality to follow your vision.

Where can you find the most happiness? Awesome question -BAM #2
Awesome Happiness
by Douglas Vermeeren
A recent study on happiness supports the same findings we arrived at with the Be Awesome Movement. (#BeAWESOMEMovement)
The study focused on the two major areas people spend money. Those two areas are on purchasing tangible objects and purchasing experiential activities or experiences. That same study found that while purchasing objects provided an instant rise in happiness levels, those levels were fleeting and disappeared quickly. In other words after the object was purchased and now considered a potion it was taken for granted and contributed very little to happiness factors.
On the other hand purchasing experiences or experiential activities provided for longer and more sustained happiness.
In the Be Awesome Movement we have also found that creating memorable experiences creates memorable memories both of which contribute to happiness. Objects contribute more towards satisfaction than lasting happiness.
So keep this in mind next time you have a purchasing choice to make. Don't just buy stuff. Spend your money on things which you can experience like a trip, or some tickets to an event or something that you can experience. in the end you will be happier that you did.
An Awesome life is living your life by decision. You are where you want to be, doing the things that excite you, inspire you and bring out the best in you and in those around you.
Join the Be Awesome Movement!!!

I'm sure you've heard that saying before. It holds true in many ways. Those who fail to create a plan and to follow it may find themselves adrift when trying to meet goals, thus, they don't meet them or they "fail". I'm seeing how "plans" have been working in my life lately. From March 14 through June 16, 2018, I took a prep course for the Senior Professional in HR (SPHR) certification exam. We received our syllabus (or plan) that outlined what we were going to cover each week and on what we would be tested. When we received the online testing material, there was a section in it that allowed us to create and record our study plans. I admit that I didn't take advantage of that section because the syllabus was enough of a "plan" for me but, when the class ended and our instructor gave us recommendations for studying for the actually certification exam itself, then I took heed to his advice and I created a study plan. Admittedly, I didn't always stick to it to the "T" (I may have missed an evening studying but I made up for it in the morning), but I was close. I recall the instructor advising that the number one reason why some people didn't pass the exam was because they didn't created and/or follow a study plan. Well, I set the plan and, by the grace of God, I passed it on June 25, 2018! Thank God! Now, realistically, there was only a 56% pass rate for the exam so I'm sure that there were those who created a plan who didn't pass it. But, if I'm a betting person, then I'd say that, of those who didn't pass, the percentage who didn't follow a study plan was greater than it was for those who did.
As you already know, I'm a runner and I'm preparing for my second marathon. I could just run and keep on running to prepare but it may not help me meet my goal of completing the marathon in 4:00 hours or less. I have a coach and I'm following a running plan that's designed to help me meet that goal. Again, there may be people who have created running plans to meet goals and they may or may not have met their goals. I would venture to say that the percentage of those who didn't meet their goals was greater for those who didn't create and follow a plan than for those who did.
So, I had the chance to hang out with friends in Michigan City this weekend. You know that I love that place . It's so relaxing to me. So peaceful. We had a great time, as usual. I wanted us to be able to see the sun set so, for those who made it there in time on Friday, the plan was to get there by 8:00 pm for the 8:26 pm sunset. Well, we hurried and got to the beach, then walked over a big sand dune only to be disappointed when we got there because the clouds had come in and blocked the sunt. Bummer! Everyone was there on Saturday but we had rained off and on all day. When it appeared that there may have been a better sunset that evening, we were at dinner away from the lake and the trees blocked the view. Bummer, again!
We were leaving to go home today and the crew left early to get there in time to relax. I stuck around and saw that it was gorgeous outside. I knew that it would be a spectacular sunset but I also knew that I needed to get home for work tomorrow. So, bummed that I would miss the sunset, I just left to go home.
But God...He had a lesson for me. The lesson was the reminder that God's plans are not my plans. Jeremiah 29:11 says "For I know the plans I have for you", declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" (NIV). So, could it be that we don't need to plan if we have God's plan? I don't think so. I think that we need to plan (with God's guidance through prayer, of course) but understand that God may create a detour in those plans. And, if God creates the detour, trust, you will be fine with it. You see, I didn't get a chance to see the sunset at the beach in Michigan City as planned but look at what God allowed me to witness on my ride home (see pictures above). Simply beautiful! I received a different view of the sunset than what I would have gotten had I been on the beach. Stunning! And what I needed at that particular time.
So, when you set out to make plans and they are altered, don't give up. Just work with what you get. You may be surprised as what you get may be better than you had originally planned.
Have a great week!

Advice - Torch or 9780?
- I'm currently rocking with a iPhone 4, now don't get me wrong i love this phone however as with most of you here i cannot escape my Blackberry addiction. I find that no matter how many apps i have at my disposal i get bored using the iPhone and am craving the delight of using a physical keyboard once more.
I have the opportunity to trade in the iPhone for either a Torch or 9780, i like things about both devices but i also have concerns about both.
- have used before but screen config was off, touch one point of the screen and it would register on the opposite side. Tried installing latest os and numerous battery pulls but no good - is this a common issue?
- Torch appeals to me for its larger screen
- like the form factor, easy one handed use
- concerned re the widespread stuttering keyboard issue - again is this as common as the forum makes out or is it a case of those with no problems don't feel the need to comment?
So there we have it, ultimately would be happy with either but as i would be going 2nd hand (though mint condition) i will not have the option to replace like for like if there are issues.
Any advice or comments welcome and thanks for taking the time to read this.02-20-11 12:04 PM
- I recently sold my torch for a 9780. I don't regret it. I always preferred the candybar form factor.
I felt like I was fumbling around too much with the torch because of the slider. With the 9780 I can just pick it up and use it. The shortcut keys is what really makes the bb quick and accessible. Or you can always wait for the Bold Touch

- I had a 9700 and although I loved it, I love the Torch even more, I like having the keyboard options and face zero problems with the touch screen registering in the incorrect place. I also like being able to navigate the entire screen with the track pad if I feel like it. The bigger screen was the selling point for me, and don't think I could go back.
9780 is a great phone as well, but for me, it wasn't worth buying as my 9700 is practically the same.
Good luck with your decision and welcome back to Crackberry02-20-11 12:32 PM
- sleepngbearRetired ModeratorIf you miss the physical keyboard, there's no replacing BB's candybar models. The Torch's keyboard is passable, but nothing like the Bold 9000 or the better Curves. I haven't seen anything about the stuttering keyboard issue, but then I never visit those device-specific forums, either. But I'd be surprised if it really were a wide-spread problem.
On the other hand, if you've gotten used to the touch screen and just need the physical keyboard for certain long text-typing tasks, touch screen sensitivity and accuracy has been dramatically improved on the Torch in the latest OS release (.450). If you're still having a problem, I'd guess you have bad hardware there.
I still miss the superior keyboard of my Bold 9000, but not enough to give up the display, touch screen and browsing experience of the Torch. But I also hear what hnguyen is saying ... if you can hold out for about another 6 months or so, the Bold Touch might be offering the best of both worlds.02-20-11 12:40 PM
- I love my Torch. I don't even use the touchscreen. I completely use the physical keyboard/trackpad. I find that I just prefer the larger screen. However, I'm considering the new Curve (Apollo?) if it is offered with AT&T. While I adore the Torch and have had zero issues with it, I'm craving the candybar form factor as it would just be easier to pick up and use instead of always having to slide up to access the keyboard.02-20-11 01:00 PM

- I wouldn't do it if I were you. I would just wait for the next gen of blackberry's..02-20-11 03:52 PM
- I had a torch. And it was good but it didn't really feel like a real BlackBerry. I know that's weird but it is what I think. I traded it for the 9780 and lo and behold it had the stuttering issue. And I don't really mind. I still rather the 9780. Great battery life compared to the torch. I'd get the 9780 i

- I don't think you could go wrong with the 9780 but, as others have said, you might want to see what the new devices this year are like.02-21-11 10:49 AM
