Any smartphone with a loud ring?

Posted: 09 Sep 2012 11:57 AM PDT

Hello,

I can find no information about this.
What popular smartphones would have the loudest ring sound?
I need this for a noisy factory environment. I can barely hear my current phone no matter what ringtone or how loud I set it.

Thanks in advance for any help! :)

accidently gave out MEID number of a phone. should i be concerned?

My iphone is a verizon phone which has been deactivated since i closed my account. I am selling the phone on craigslist. here is the issue i am facing.

I gave out my MEID number of the iphone to a potential buyer because he wanted to check to see if he can unlock the phone. I thought it was harmless to do so. But I started to have second thoughts especially when the potential buyer never replied to my email message.

what malicious/fraudulent things can they do with the number?

1. I read somewhere that they substitute the number i gave them with the number of a phone that is lost/stolen or blacklisted. What are the consequences of this?
here is my concern, lets say i sell the phone it to a customer that wants to use the phone on verizon's network. and let's say this crook clones my meid number onto a stolen phone and uses that phone in his verizon account. Is there a possiblity that the person owning the real phone on verizon's network face serious legal charges? also, is there a possiblity that the crook can use his phone with the cloned meid number and have the phone charges appear on the other verizon customer's account bill? i mean let's say the crook sets up a verizon account and registers his stolen phone which has my meid number on it. will any charges associated with that stolen phone be applied to verizon's phone bill assoicated with the legit verizon customer that has the real phone? also, can this happen even if the crook sets up an account with another wireless carrier other than verizon?

I indicated that this is a verizon iphone. can they call verizon and have the phone blacklisted so that i cant use it on their network? also, is it possible for them to have it blacklisted so that i cant use phone on any cell phone carrier's network?

can they use the meid number to track the my phone?

thanks for your replies.

Will HTC release a new phone for Sprint soon?

Do you think HTC will release a new phone for Sprint soon? I bought a HTC Hero a few years ago and I absolutely love the phone! I'm a big HTC fan now but I've been holding out for a new phone for a long time. I'm worried that if I run out and buy that HTC EVO 4G today they will come out with a new model next month. Do you think a new model is on the horizon for Sprint?
