Soooo my Thunderbolt was murdered today in a stupendous and awesome fashion.
I went to pick up my GF from her job to take her to dinner. We've been doing well lately. We were texting prior to me picking her up and she was so turned on I was going to get some head before dinner but in typical fasion I said something stupid when I picked her up and ruined it. So I wrote off the physical part of the evening, **** happens. So I decided to take her to Carraba's for dinner. It's a nice but not overly nice Italian place in Houston. We ate, we drank... me more than her of course. We were texting my friend tave about her... situation. That's a whole different discussion.
Anyways, 2 hours later I paid the bill and we walked out. As we were walking to the car in the parking lot I threw her up against the side of the Shelby and placed my TBolt on top of the car because it was in my hand. I'm kissing on her, feeling her up, getting her going.
I open the passenger side door and she gets in first and I get in on top of her. We continue as one might suspect and then decide it would be better if I were on bottom. She could then crouch in front of the dash for some head. So we both get out and get back in properly. We continue makin out and getting going. She looks at me and says there isn't enough room here. So I told her what about the back seat. She said no, there isn't enough room. I told her bullsh*t. Watch. Kicked her out and we got in the back seat. Sure enough there was PLENTY of room.
So we're going at it and she goes down on me. Let me tell you, it's some grade A sh*t. Top notch.
I finish... and we look at the clock and she needs to get home. So we get out of the back and into the front and reset the seats and I noticed I didn't have my phone in my pocket. So I look around and can't find it. In the mean time I started the car and noticed that it connected to Ford Sync. I decided that since it connected and BT is very short range that it had to be in the car and I'd find it later tonight. So I pulled out of the parking lot.
Few blocks later I get stuck at a red light. It turns green and we pull away, no problem. I'm getting into third gear and we hear this kind of crash, boom, bang. Not too loud but definitely audible and defnitely can't place it. Christy starts looking at my navigation system and notices the screen says "Phone disconnected".
Oh ****.
I flip a biatch and make another pass, nothing. Rinse, repeat, 4 times. Finally found it. I put my flashers on and get out of the car and pick up my phone. Screen is absolutely shattered. I pick it all up and get back in the car and immediately start laughing. The phone is totally FUBAR'd. No question.
On our way to Christy's house I start laughing again and tell her to put it back together and see if it works. Sure enough it did. Screen doesn't display shat but it connects to Ford Sync no problem.
So, the cost of the evening was dinner and a TBolt... the VERY LARGE upside was some head worth remembering for all time.
See below for photos.
Damn son, you should've gotten straight to the point lol

and going by the topic title...are you somehow shocked it cant survive 40mph? lol
if you want a phone that takes abuse, get that one casio makes for verizon that's rated for the military.
Otherwise, quit whining when it can't take something it was never intended for.
I dont even think you could "resurrect" the jesus phone at the force of a 40mph impact

Wow, about 90% of that post was totally useless. The OP left his phone on top of his car because he was thinking with his little head instead of his other one (I won't say big one because I'm quite sure neither is big).
Maybe he just got mixed up and posted a rather boring thread at Penthouse Forums. I'm sure he did make a point to mention his *****in' car in that post too though. Pump that fist brah!
And did we really need 10 pictures of pretty much the same thing?

To some of you guys, take a chill pill. And fyi, I know this guy and I assure you his mommy and daddy didn't pay for any of his crap. It's called working your butt off. You guys should try it some time. But I do agree, there might have been a little TMI

Today, I received my replacement device from T-Mobile, and instead of having it say "T-Mobile" above the display, it says "LG". It's a P-999WD, and has the July 15 baseband.
It's not an issue, but I thought it was pretty weird. Now I have an Optimus 2x ;D

Exact same thing happened to me. Received the new device earlier this month. Thought it was weird but not a problem.
that's pretty sweet!
is the back battery cover black? or the tmobile version with the brownish bronze tint?

Nah, it was a Warranty Exchange, so no battery/cover were included.
Here in Canada we only get the non-branded black/grey ones
No back cover included for me either. Only difference is the "LG" above the display.

Wow. Do you have some sort of issue? You could have politely corrected him. This kind of behavior isn't welcome on XDA (or anywhere, for that matter).
That's what the ones from WIND look like. They have no issues except minor screen bleed.
GTWalling said:
WOW. They are all o2x phones. The G2x is called that because of branding to T-Mobile. What gives?
Click to expand...

They're not exactly the same... They are however VERY similar. I'd say maybe they're more like fraternal twins than identical.
Hmmm... I'm going to pick my replacement up from UPS in the morning. Wonder if I'll get unbranded? Guess I'll post back here once I find out.
On another note, I thank you all for not being idiots like the other Guy.

Well his screenname does say demented so it kinda makes sense.
sheesh....dude got tag teamed!!! lol
but...warranty is tied with the device for a whole year after the phones release right? even thought the phone was not bought from tmobile? (im second owner )
if people keep getting unbranded ones, i might try my luck...if possible.

I actually don't even think they would know that you're not the original owner, unless you tell them. If you do warranty through T-Mobile, you'll have to pay a $20 fee, but if you have Premium Handset Protection, which is $7.99 a month, it's only a $5.00 fee, but it covers physical damage, and theft. Normally, you can't get Premium Handset Protection after 14 days, but they'll offer it to you during your warranty exchange. Also, if you have Premium Handset Protection, they'll give you FREE overnight shipping if you request it before 8pm EST.

First of all he deserved to be tag teamed. He must be one of those little kiddies that mommy and daddy bought a expensive smartphone for. that is the reason for all this crap on xda now because everyone has a smartphone now including the assholes. For some reason they all seem to be gravitating toward the g2x and that is not to say all g2x owners are assholes but I also have the sgs2 and this **** just doesnt seem to go on there.

You don't read the SGS2 forums much do you? haha
There has been all kinds of drama over there. From people being accused of kanging other roms and people getting banned to just general retardedness like that guy. It's bad all over the place. Kind of sad really.
I agree. I think most of it is kids getting on here and thinking they need to make a name for themselves and show how badass they are.
Picked my replacement up today and unfortunately it's still branded. Screen seems to be much better than my previous phone, even though they were both DWs. Oh well.

Unlimited my @$$!!!!!! So I guess the new limit is 2GB for us "unlimited" users.
Last month I got to 3GB before receiving the message... I'm guessing next month it will go down to 1GB. haha
I am so unhappy with this. Unlimited plan being throttled at 2GB... c'mon... your telling me that's the top 5%!!!???

I have noticed the amount used has gone down a bit but remember it goes by area that your zip code is so it's dependent on the users around you. I live in the middle of nowhere in south texas but my phone is activated with a Dallas/Ft.Worth number so I can get up to maybe 5 or so gigs before I get the warning text. I used to be able to.go to 7 though before so I do think it's gone down a bit. You know you can somewhat bypass it by just keeping ur band set to hspa only. Its bearable for me that way
Froggys go ribbet
show them with your wallet .. OH wait
sprints towers are ****
verizons and higher priced and NO "unlimited"
funny part is on the fine print of the contract you signed it say they have the right to cut people off if they choose too .
but most people dont read the fine print
Their "unlimited" sounds a lot like an internet deal that Verizon offered my Dad. In their case it was "For Life!" (meaning 2 years).
Read this earlier today...figured this was a good post to share on.

^ignorance
first off.. I am not "screaming" about throttling... and I DID read the "****" I signed before I posted something on a public forum ( "started tear works") haha.. society... no wonder this world is doomed...
it says in the contract that they have the right to modify or cancel any customer who they feel is using excessive data on the network...
how is 2040mb excessive when they offer a 3GB data plan.
if we were not in the right... that guy would not have won the case against ATT... granted he only got $850... but think of all the ATT customers..
since ATT put that we can not file a class action lawsuit into there contract... the only option we have is to do it individually.. which only some may do..
but just think if they didn't have the class action lawsuit rule in the contract they would be paying out $850 x the millions of ATT customers (or however many are on an unlimited data plan still) = $$$$$$$$
so I'm sorry CheesyNutz.. I don't like getting f*cked in the @$$ by these major corporations trying to suck the life out of us.
Just posting on a "friendly" forum to help raise awareness, and let other people know they are really snapping down... doesn't matter how much data you use..
If you do "read" then you may want to read up on the case more before thinking you're in store for an instant 850 in your pocket.
Small claims court in California isn't small claims in new york. If you think you really do have a case, read up on how damages are calculated in small claims court in your state, gather your proof, and go file.
Otherwise this means nothing to you.

So ladies and gents, the time has come for yet another giveaway from your [sometimes] friendly neighborhood MetalHead [queue music]!!! This week in honor of our [once] great nation's birthday, we are giving away a BRAND SPANKING NEW (open box) Otterbox Defender case w/holster!! Why am I giving it away? Because I may be an a$$hole but I'm also a really nice guy
So here's the deal. I want as many people to be able to get in on this as possible so I am going to do things differently. I want to know why you feel like you should be the one who gets the case. Tell me why you need it, and tell me why you deserve it. Keep it short and sweet, and try to post something different than what anybody else comes up with. I will keep this going until next Saturday the 7th of July at 12pm central time, and I will pick the 20 best answers and put the names of the posters into my trusty, sweat stained Superman hat and pull one name out at random, and that lucky name will get the case. If there are too many posts for me to handle myself, I might ask one or two of our regular posters to help me narrow the field down. If there's less than 20 people who post, then everybody goes into my hat. Just so nobody cries foul, I will do the drawing on video so you guys get to see my ugly mug If some of the answers are too similar, I will pick whoever has the highest thanks count and submit that name into the hat, so BE CREATIVE!!!
There are some requirements though. I don't want people taking my $50 case and disappearing so I am going to set some limits.
***You must meet ALL of these requirements to enter:
You must have been an active member of xda for at least 1 month
You must have at least 100 posts
You must have at least 5 thanks
You must live in one of the 48 contiguous states (sorry, not paying for international shipping)
I'm sorry if you feel these requirements are too strict but I tried to make them as loose and fair as possible. If you don't meet the requirements, don't worry because there will be a giveaway in the future that will be open to everyone. And if you don't meet these requirements, please don't post. I have a feeling I'm going to have a ton of posts to go through so please don't make more work for me.
One post only per person, AND NO EDITS!! Seriously, if I see an edit and it is more than 5 minutes after the original post it will be an automatic disqualification.
***Remember, you MUST have your submission in by 12pm central on Saturday, July 7th. NO EXCEPTIONS. The winner will be posted on Sunday the 8th, as long as my lazy a$$ isn't too hungover to make the video. Otherwise, it will be posted sometime that following week. I will post the video here, and PM the winner. Good luck!***

Because im a noob! I don't got anything good I won't lie
Swyped from my HTC One X using XDA premium.
i feel like i should get this case because i actually like the bulky cases mostly for grip since i have big hands and won't fall off my hands easily. I had a few otter products before and i know how protective their cases are. Holster will come in handy
Good enough?
because I am a bus monitor who gets picked on, and while $674,260 is a nice gesture I always wanted a nice case for my HOX.
I would also be willing to dip into my own funds to pay international shipping if allowed.
I would love to have this case, I'm 24 years old and got a server herniated disc while working at lowes, and had to get surgery for a total disk replacement and spinal fysion, and my wife and I just had a baby. So neither of us have a job, and I can't afford to buy a case.
I feel that I help the community grow and thrive by trying to help anyone I can, with anything I can, as much as I can.

I need this case for free because im still in college and i always tend to drop my phone will doing school works and i'm kinda broke to buy me one of this
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I need this case because my HOX is naked right now and I'm very prone to dropping it lol. And I've been a member since 2009 and never won a giveaway on these forums.
Also I spent all of my "spending money" on my girlfriend, so this would be nice to win.
Thanks for giving me the chance to win!
EDIT: Nevermind, I don't have enough posts or likes.
I'd love the case because I'm a broke college student that can't afford one. I live in the rainy and sandy state of Florida, so my phone is always prone to damage and scratches.
And let me say that I am a big guy. And when I say big, I mean very big. I can't have a wafer thing phone that my thunder thighs will smash when it's in my pocket!
Also, I love xda, and I hope to continue contributing as much as I can to this site.

I live in Montana, A very rugged state if you're outdoorsy. Mountains among mountains! Can you imagine falling off your ATV doing 30 downhill, and your phone tumbling down as well? Otterbox cases are made for Montanians ;]. The One X, A very pricey little device. Picks up a great signal no matter where I'm at! If I could, i'd bring an actual walkie talkie, But sadly I can't make phone calls, listen to music, text or enjoy the smartphone experience from a two way radio. Don't let your phone be claimed to the average Montana terrain. So if you could save the little bugger... Be it one device, or a thousand, would you? Its a terrible way to lose your mind.. And device <\3

I think I deserve this case because of how much my naked One X has gone through. It has survived a 4 mile hike in the downpouring rainforests of Hawaii. It has survived a surprise downpour in the Cape Cod canal using two pieces of cigarette cellophane. I think my phone deserves this more than me.
Thanks for doing this buddy.

Don't let your phone be claimed to the average Montana terrain. So if you could save the little bugger... Be it one device, or a thousand, would you? Its a terrible way to lose your mind.. And device <\3

I don't need the case for my HOX but my wife needs one so I will say way I think she needs it.
1) she is a great mother to our sick daughter (she has leukemia)
2) she is a little bit of accident prone...lol
3)She has asked for this case. I just haven't been able to afford to get it for her.
I mean no disrespect to anyone else, just pleading my (my wife's) case as OP asked. I think my wife really deserves this case and would love to win it as its the case she has been asking for.

I prefer the phone naked. Love the feel of it an stuff. Its so sleek. Sexy. Think fifth element Rudy green or what ever his name was. Accidents happens. Better safe than sorry.
Saw your post thought to myself "hey, why not." Haha Green

Just got off the line with Verizon, im on a launch day galaxy nexus and called to see if I could upgrade to a n3 and keep unlimited data.
I originally preordered under my month to month feature phone line and saw people able to keep unlimited.
I called and the rep Dawn said she personally owns a n2 and is upgrading, I did not pry, but she said "when they ship out on the 4th"
I asked and she confirmed multiple times that they are shipping on the 4th..
I have the whole call recorded, I just need to edit and upload.
So, I was able to upgrade the main line and confirm I could keep unlimited data.
The extra treat was her telling me multiple times that they are shipping on the 4th and us guys who preordered should get our devices
On the 5th.
Again, I have the proof on the recorded call and I will be posting a link shortly.
I can't vouche for honesty of the rep, she sounded informed and checked with supervisor multiple times...
Let's see how this plays out!

when did ATT charge your card before they shipped?
Omfg this gnex is so slow to edit this call!!!
Which would mean that I wouldn't get it until the 7th since I'm having it shipped to my office
That would still be (3) days earlier, which would still make me happy, but I can't say that it doesn't hurt to see other people on other carriers get theirs sooner even though Verizon announced pre-ordering first. #StupidFirstWorldProblems
Interesting...I wonder if stores will have it on the 4th...

Oh for the love of all that is good! You should have picked a different title for the thread. People who are freaking psycho over a phone are gonna flame the hell out of you if it doesn't ship out on the 4th.
I personally enjoy reading what others are told and the rumors that may or may not be true. We could do a fantasy league for phone ship dates. Oh the passionate discussions.
Seriously, thanks for posting. I'm definitely ready to go get my new GN3. Crazy how my old phone suddenly seems like total crap and the only resolution is a GN3!
Went by my verizon corporate store after a deer tried to jump over my van and crashed into the back of it. Then a red wasp attacked me going down the road, after a panic stop the seat belt hung my shell holster. Didn't see it in the road and ran over it. Had to get another. Anyway they said the 11th for the N3 in store.

Who Ships on a Friday?
I don't hold anyone responsible for "leaked" info that doesn't actually come to fruition, I think we are all hearing different things (because no one really knows), and no one should get bent out of shape over a phone. I will miss my beloved GNEX. ALTHOUGH, WTF VZW? Who ships on a Friday? I really hope they meant arriving on the 4th. Anyway, I checked with the store I preordered mine at here in Seattle. They told me it was supposed to ship this week, in typical VZW fashion, they will be the last carrier to ship. The guys said they would update me with the shipping info when it ships. Waiting impatiently!
K- Heres some of the 45min call,
Who knows.. lol 1 track listen 45sec in. you hear "Dawn" get excited herself and say "oh my god"
about keeping unlimited data.Booyah!
For your sake i hope our happens on the fourth. If not stay away from the pitchforks.

I listened to the .mp3 files, and yes, you're right. The rep did confirm the 4th. I hope she actually knows what she's talking about. The fact that the Verizon Galaxy S 4 released a week earlier than the pre-order date is encouraging.

I wondering if I heard right but she confirmed that you can go into Walmart or other retail like Best Buy and still keep your unlimited?
I preordered at Best Buy and again on the Verizon page when the glitch was open. If Best Buy calls me to pick up my phone before Verizon ships it out will I still be able to keep my unlimited if I go the Best Buy route?

Well, the One X is in MINT condition after 2 years. You could fool me if you slapped on the AT&T don't text and drive sticker and boxed it up. However it is due time to retire this bad boy, for I have just placed my order for the OnePlus One!
I do feel bad that I have not been vocally active here as life has got me pretty busy, but this phone has been great, and the community has been great. I am retiring the phone on the latest carbon rom and torched kernel.
I just hope that the OnePlus is all it is worked up to be (and does not have the yellow screen issues that people have been talking about.
Farewell and good luck everybody!:good:
Lucky you. I feel like I'll never get a Oneplus at this rate.
Enjoy the new phone!
Congrats on getting an invite for the OnePlus one. I have been trying to get an invite but I think I will just renew and get something else. The LG G3 is looking pretty nice right now. Love the idea of the phone but its crazy the way the invite system is working.

The g3 is a hot phone. that was the phone that I was about to get before my invite arrived. there is a deal with the g3 and g watch (and all lg accessories) good through sept 11. I would hop on that.
How did you come by your invite?

I was an early supporter. In the early 7,000's on the forum.
I'm still trying to get my invite. It's frustrating the way they're doing things at OnePlus.

I agree. I am VERY nervous regarding this purchase to be completely honest. I feel like I will be completely on my own with this if ANYTHING is wrong. I typically REFUSE to do business with ANY company that has operates in such a way that oneplus does (lies, shady business practices, refusal to acknowledge or respect its customers/potential customers, no ownership whatsoever regarding defects, charging to return a defective product, the list goes ON AND ON.) The only reason why I went through with the purchase is because it is, I guess the lucrative invite system...I guess it works? In a way. OP could make far more profit without pissing people off and totally killing their reputation...
Exactly. They're limiting the amount of money they could potentially be raking in. It's worked though:
1+1 hype level: over 9,000!
But...
Potential customer frustration level: over 9,000,000!

Congrats Timma on the OPO invite. I considered this phone for a bit but in the end came to the conclusion that I am simply too much of an HTC fan right now. That and I think the phone is too big. lol. They must be doing something right over there because apps and APKs are spilling out into Roms all over the place. Seems everybody wants to port the camera app.
Anyway like you I am still here hanging out. It's ironic that the Evita is easier to customize and more up to date than some of the newer phones. The only thing lagging is the hardware. We just got a good implementation of F2FS and some of our Roms are completely up to date.
So, I expect you will still be lurking around here same as me. This Forum is still on top of my XDA bookmarks.

Thanks, bud. This device is still pretty good, mine is in fantastic condition, but the low amount of storage, the small battery, and the lack of RAM are all things I definitely won't miss. I'll definitely still be lurking and maintaining my threads, and helping people in our Q&A Section.

@timmaaa yes you will be missed here! On that note, I was looking at the OPO...but started getting concerned by some of the feedback on the company and customer service.
I would still have gone with the Xiaomi MI3, except for the lack of XDA support (due to the kernel source issue)...which is a big deal for me.
I know this thread is starting to get old but I was just wondering how you guys are liking the oneplus. It will soon be time for me to retire my Evita, and am trying to decide if I should get the Latest HTC or try for a oneplus invite.

Thanks for the tip. I've been having a hard time trying to decide. this was my first android coming from iPhone. I loved this phone and I can't even count how many of your threads I followed to mod this thing, so I definitely trust your input. I guess its time to do my homework on getting an invite. By the way how's the camera, that was my favorite part of sense.
