Giving away my HTC Fuze

First off I hope this is in the correct section, I figured it was an appropriate place as any. I lurked around the Touch Pro section for a while (in fact xda-developers was the reason I purchased the Fuze in the first place) and have had a great time playing around with custom ROMS and apps for the device.
I went back to an old Nokia device a while ago because I wasn't really using data at all, but now I'm moving to Sprint to get the Evo 4G and this Fuze is still laying around, unused.
It's in great condition, almost perfect I would say, and I'll throw in the charger and whatnot if you would like.
I'd like to give it to someone from this community who needs or can make use of it. Just post a quick reason why you would like it and within a couple days I'll decide who to send it to.
Thanks for making my first experience with an HTC WinMo device so fun!

Well I would like to have your phone, since my TP has an awful ghosting on the screen which makes the screen really hard to read sometimes, but if there are other people that can make better use of it (like ROM developers) they of course have a better reason for getting it than me ^,^
I wouldn't mind to pay you the shipping costs of course, so that your expenses are covered. I'd give my current TP to my girlfriend, she has a crappy Sony Ericsson phone now

Thats a very generous offer. I do not intend of keeping my Fuze much longer personally as I am growing annoyed with microsoft. But i have yet to find any android based phone i like (Aside from the Droid, but i despise Verizon).
Unfortunately, my Fuze has a defective touch screen. My original Fuze never had working wifi, which was then replaced under insurance with a refurbished phone. This phone is great and all, except for the loose keyboard and faulty touch screen.
When i draw a line across the screen with my stylus in notepad, you can see the line curve and go under or above the dead zone, very freaky and annoying. Most likey if you are willing to give it to me, mine would be given to my soon-to-be fiance as she is leaving her host family (au pair) and will have no phone.
Regards
- Mike
(seriously though, i'm sure there are much more deserving people of this sweet phone, but if you are interested, i will pay for shipping and handling)
UPDATE - Ok, Captain Throwback needs it more - my vote is to give it to him ha ha.

Hello!
I don't know if you know me, but I'm Captain_Throwback, a Mod here, and also a Raphael chef. I've been having issues with my Fuze of late, and fortunately, since I have insurance on my device, I was able (just yesterday) to get a Tilt 2 as a replacement for my device. Unfortunately, that means I can longer produce Raphael ROMs for my loyal ROM users, and I'd really hate to stop doing that - it's been quite a process getting my Kitchen together (3 times now), and putting together ROMs that are stable and to my liking. The insurance company claims "right of salvage" on any replaced devices, so unless I want to pay full retail for the Tilt 2, I have to return my Fuze to them. So, it was suggested that I post in this thread for a shot at having another Fuze, so that I can continue cooking for this great community, and update my ROM which is over a month old, at this point.
I have a few dollars in my Paypal account, so I wouldn't mind covering shipping costs, and throwing a few extra dollars in there for it as well, since I understand the device isn't free. But I'm sure (as the above poster noted) there's someone who needs it more than me.
I'm sorry to hear that you never got the full potential out of your Fuze (perhaps you should've flashed my ROM on it ), but I'm sure someone here will give it a good home, and make sure that it gets used well. Happy choosing!

I always want to have htc touch pro but its too expensive to me on my country But i have Blue Angel Decision is yours....
Sorry for my English...

Over the weekend my touch screen just completely stopped working and i have not idea why, i contacted at&t for insurance replacement but they arent helping me at all, since i bought it from newegg with a service plan through at&t theres some confusion about the insurance and i think i got really screwed. long story short they wont help me unless i renew my 2 year agreement and newegg cant do anything either. im inclinded to fix it myself but im pretty broke with other expenses so im completely phoneless until i can figure something out. ive already flashed back to the stock rom and checked the cable to the lcd and that seems to be whats wrong but to get a new cable id have to order it from hong kong and that seems like the least desirable option, going 4 weeks with no phone would be terrible for me. ive got other stuff on my plate but i dont want this to turn into a total sob story, if theres any way i can get some help i would be ecstatic. id throw whatever money ive got towards it as well

Hello,
Giving away a touch pro? How kind =]. Well I am searching another Touch Pro, I want to give it as a present. the Touch Pro's here are barely available, Since they are outstores already. I would really like to give my friend a touch pro for her birthday, I guess that would be so cool for her =]. Also this could be a good present since I have a crush on her :$. Im a big fan of the Touch Pro, and I really convinced people around me that they should get one too. They really like the device. I could make a "fake" message that my Touch Pro just broke, but no. I am just being honost, I hope you will give the Touch Pro to whoever deserves it.
Good luck,
Armazia

Hmm but then again why would anyone with a perfectly working phone reply to this thread? It's quite obvious that only people with malfunctioning phones will reply xD
If it ain't broken, there's no need to fix it ^^

Thats right.. But some say its suddenly , But yea, its your thread

i'd like to make a suggestion.
while Captin_Throwback is hard to ignore on this (rom maker and all) i would like to suggest donating your fuze to the hard workers developing android on our devices. i'm sure they would like to have another for when nand testing starts and whatnot.
just a thought.

Good One, you can treat my response as non-existent, because either the Captain or the XDAndroid Team could make far better use out of it than me ^^

my phone isn't broken, so send it to me!
Mine isn't broken, it just sucks. You should send it to me. I can sell it and my phone on ebay and have enough money to get a phone that doesn't suck.

Well thanks for all the interest, I think I'm going to send it to Captain Throwback.

Decision made ... thread closed.

G-Tablet has another user :)

After my saga with Adam, I decided to cancel the order with them. Not sure if I will get the funds back, but will worry about that later.
Last night, I decided to purchase G-Tablet thanks to active members @ XDA. The device should be on my desk tomorrow
Before I get flame by other users, I've already went through the threads. I think I can live with its weaknesses. Therefore, I am not going to repeat the FAQs, but recommendations are always welcome.

Saga with Adam? Do tell........big issues with shipments and arrival dates?
Sent from my GTablet-TnT-Lite using Tapatalk

Not much to describe. After series of delays, my pre-order was on 12/09 and supposed to shipped Jan 09. However, it got delay after delay for various "reasons". It ended up with Feb 15, 2011. Finally, I fed up with it.

Welcome, I can imagine you will enjoy your gtab, at least 100% more than the adam, since you never got it
I'd play around with stock a bit then root it and flash either TNT or Vegan so you can see what they all offer you as a user. Heck you can even download the adam port thanks to the devs to see what adam is like.
Please post your thoughts about the gtab after you have some time behind the wheel.

Enjoy the gADAM mod, if you want an "almost Adam".

Like you, I am new gtablet convert just this last weekend. I bought mine at office depot. Yes, I know the display is not that great but if you flip it over and use the camera as the bottom on landscape its actually not bad at all.

Welcome!
I have been saving the coins for one of my own. I got one for the wife and she been gracious enough to let me tinker with it but I feel bad switching the ROMs too much on hers. :}

Sad Day In My Shift World

Let me start off by stating that XDA and all the moderators and users have created something absolutely amazing. This site has allowed and taught me to turn just my cell phone into something awesome and personalized. I'm lovin what you guys are doing so keep up the good work for sure.
The first smartphone I got was the Evo Shift, and fell in love immediately. I very soon after discovered XDA and started rooting and flashing away. I helped a few friends out rooting their phones, but I just felt like the Shift was far better and faster.
I used the phone for around 6 months or so. Unfortunately that's where my happiness ended. My girlfriend decided to snatch it out of my hands one night, and i guess decided that I no longer needed a phone, so she smashed it against the pavement which ended my little buddy. Lol. Well she saw the error of her ways or who know what, but she's going to try and buy me a phone in a day or so. We are both not really "ballin" enough to go throw money on some things. Anyways she only is gonna spend around $40 or $50 on the phone. I've looked on eBay, Craigslist, and other sites and it seems like im sort of S.O.L. I've checked out other phones besides the shift, and all i really care about is speed. But hell beggars can't be choosers lol. Well i decided to ask on here to see if I might get lucky and see if anyone has a decent sprint phone they are trying to sell or get rid of.
Any help is much appreciated and very thanked regardless.

I sympathize with your position but the only place on XDA for buying/selling/trading of devices is the marketplace, and unfortunately you will not have access there due to your account being very new, or by PM with someone and you are both taking a risk which most XDA members are unlikely to do. Or by an external source such as you have already checked out.
I will move this thread to Q&A since you did ask for suggestions, hopefully some members here can think of something helpful to suggest.
I suggest sticking with suggestions related to the phone and avoiding the relationship element please.
Thank you,

I would keep an eye out on Craigslist, and the XDA Marketplace. I've seen more than a few go for just around that price.

[SANCTUARY] Ex-Desire S Users Hangout Lounge

Hello,
I've created this thread and named it appropriately [SANCTUARY] for those users that have previously owned a Desire S (and still may do) and have since moved on to to using another device. Anyone who spent time in this forum may as I've done find life outside it a very tedious place.
This was my first Android device, which I still own (as does my wife), I've always greatly appreciated the attitude in this forum and found it a safe, friendly haven especially when compared along side the chaos and carnage that can be found in the other flag ship device areas! We've been fortunate here and have mostly escaped endless trolls, pointless bickering, needless aggressive sarcasm and have historically required minimal need for moderation.
Many of this forums founding and contributing members have more recently moved on to using a variety of other main stream flagship devices (commonly the HTC One X or SGS 2/3 ) no doubt we will all move in time, but, with endless existing Sense ROMs, recently its first Sense 4.1 ROM being released not forgetting AOSP/CM10/AOKP ICS & JB ROMs still being perfected the device has plenty of life in it yet.
This thread is primarily intended as a place where those people who have moved away from the DS can come to ask questions and receive answers without being crowded out or shouted down as I've found to be the unfortunate general behavior in the mainstream flagship forums which are populated by a great deal more uncivilized users.
This isn't intended to be another [OFF-TOPIC] thread, so please continue to use the standard DS OT thread for that [OFF-TOPIC] Desire S Users Hangout Lounge for that.
EDIT: It appears that the moderators have seen to close all OFF TOPIC threads see their justification here.
If this thread succeeds that it should hopefully be inhabited by a large number of Ex-DS users and therefore users who will have a great deal of DS relevant knowledge, so new DS users are more than welcome to come to ask questions....although primarily I'd prefer the Yes/No type questions only, as if your question requires a lengthy response, its probably worthy of its own thread in the Q&A section (so create a new one - but try searching first!).
As an initial starting point, why not attempt to follow the form of brief introduction (although I reckon this will be mostly unnecessary) and let us know what device you are on now and then any question, statement or recommendation you have...

I'll start off -
Hello, I'm Ben (obviously!)
I'm planning on buying an N4 tomorrow night, I won't be alone there as I believe several other current DS users are planning on doing the same, I'm hoping that this thread can become a the haven for us all!

Ben, as enigmaamit said, you shouldn't jump the gun. Wait for a month (or at least a week) and see if there are any major flaws in the device. Not many devices come out without one, and this is LG

I hear you shrome99, but at that price I'm still jumping ship, when you consider that the N4 is Approx £200 cheaper than the equivalent other flagship devices (ie HTC One X+ or i9305) it will have to be significant issues for me to regret it! (famous last words ) Although I won't be daft enough to sell the DS anytime soon, so if there are issues then I'll still have that, although as foolish as it may be I want to be on board day 1 with a new flagship device for a change (much against my my normal better judgement!).

Makes sense It's been getting glowing reviews from all sites, I'm sure it'll be awesome.

Hello guys! Most of you probably know me or at least recognise the name....
DS was my 1st android device which I loved dearly (and still do) although it has now been sold.
Currently I own a galaxy s2 which even though I've had it only 2 months looks as though it will soon find itself on eBay to make way to get mighty N4! However I plan to hold back a week or 2 after release to get a better picture of the real life use of the phone (all his shiz re thermal throttling has got me spooked!) 99% sure I will be getting it very soon though, just awaiting some user fb from new users.....

Drool.....Can't wait to order mine, got a buyer lined up already for the S3. I'm going to order the 16gb then pocket the change to take care of a Christmas present for my daughter and the new assassins creed for me
Sent from my Nexus 7

Do I really need to introduce myself? I'm sure that most of the guys/gals (are there any of those) who come to this thread will know me
The DS was also my first smart-phone and I still have it right now. It's a bit scuffed and I've replaced both the touch-screen and the LCD (butter-fingers), but she means a lot to me and I learnt a lot through playing with her. When I got the DS I was looking at several models, but I'm glad I made the choice I did as it meant I met some really good people on here.
As you probably know, I got myself an LG Optimus 4X HD which I am really chuffed with. I know that it is a locked bootloader, but I was actually after a phone to use as a phone and the contract deal was too good to refuse. I will almost certainly be getting myself an N7 + 3G in the near future as I can't root the company one I'm with Eyahl - it may be a treat to myself as I've got the big 40 coming up in a few weeks :silly:

Hello guys!! Tomorrow night or on tuesday morning I´m going to buy the Nexus 4...
Are you going to unlock the bootloader or root the device? I think it´s one of the first things I do so I don´t have to loose all my data later on.

Within hours of getting it un-boxed! Once I've established that its fully functional wifi, mobile data, gps etc then it's time for the unlock followed by root etc....

Hello, Nah, not exactly, in fact that's the exact question that I've been trying to get an answer to myself......I plan on checking at midnight before I crash, (but am sure that will be way too early) and then again at about 7:30-8am on the 14th with my credit card in hand when I figure they'll be open for business :fingers-crossed:
Let me know via this thread if you get any update......or have any suspicions.

Hey people!
Eagerly waiting for the beast, totally committed to buying on day 1. I won't be selling the DS though, for several reasons. I actually need a device I can splash android 2.3-4.1.1 with to test my apps.
So this will be my main stop thread in a short while...
Thanks Ben!

sold out everywhere?

Why is the tablet sold out every where all of a sudden? I am going crazy waiting for my HTC 10 so I decide today after looking for probably 3 months that I am going to pull the trigger and buy the shield tablet to have while waiting for my phone, and look now they all sold out? Is this just my bad luck? While searching for one to buy I am also seeing a lot of comments about the recall.... does this have something to do with it? As a side note if anyone knows where I can order one right away for same price as Nvidia let me know. Nvidia said they would be having them again in a couple days so i am not really willing to pay too much more.

is it really needed to create another thread? You asked the same thing some days ago already. It would - apart from that - be really handy to know where you are living, as the availability may differ between countries.

No I didnt ask the same thing... I only decided to buy the thing today so that is not possible... previously I had asked for input on the pricing and if anyone knew of any deals. This is a question that stemmed from my decision to actually go ahead and purchase the device and finding out that they were sold out everywhere. My question being if there was a reason for this and the possibility of it being because of recalled units.
thanks so much for your reply even though it is completely useless and displays no intelligence... Its always entertaining to see people who take the time to reply to a question to just make a comment rather than answering the question.... To answer your question though sir, I am in the US... just as it states right next to my user name and in my profile. :laugh: :good:
