What data package comes with a SERO plan?

[Jaggrey]

Is stuff like GPS and a certain number of free downloads a month included in the data plan?

Odd question from a seasoned mod. SERO data (EVDO Casual is what they call it I think)is what you can access through your phone. Tethering isnt included. Dowloading ringers, wallpapers and apps are permited but you may be subject to other charges from where you downloaded it from. Access to data for GPS apps is free but the monthly fees are additional if they apply.

Sorry I've never had a SERO plan :p

Is stuff like Sprint Navigation free, or is there an additional charge to use it? By downloading ringers and apps I mean directly from Sprint, not from anywhere else on the web which of course would depend on the site.

The data plan gives us access to the net and data transfer is included. navigation apps may have a monthly fee to you depending on which one you use. you need to have access to the net for the program to load maps on your phone. Ringers and other such things like games are not free except for promotional stuff. When you do buy something like that you need to get it to your phone via internet access which is free where if you didnt have a data plan would cost .03 cents per kb. You could use stuff like googlemaps from your phone without any extra charges. You will know if it cost you because you will have to confim the purchase.

You have limited TV, there is some radio, but you pay for downloads for music, ringer and games. You have unlimited data and text but no PAM. You can access the internet and download files if you wish. You have picture mail but you should make sure it is set up on the new phone. I think navigation is normally not free - either $10 per month or 2.99? per day. I always looked at it as if you paid for a service before SERO like ringers, music, games, you will still be paying for it under SERO. SERO discounts the plan not the extra stuff.

Ok cool. I know some time ago Sprint gave you like 5 free downloads a month... wasn't sure if that was still the case with any of their plans let alone SERO.

Hey look what I found: http://a676.g.akamaitech.net/f/676/773/60m/images.delivery.net/cm50content/1529/sero_redesign/SERO_details.pdf

I get offers for ringtones for free from sprint but I make my own on my PC and upload them (free) via an online uploader like the one here or funformobile. like i said when u try to access something thats not free you will be prompted to approve the payment.
