Hi all nexus user, my cousin has a nexus s but he dropped it on concrete and the screen is cracked. The phone still works, but the screen is completely dead. The lights on the bottom turn on when I turn the phone on, but the screen stays black. He offered it to me for 100$ and I'm wondering if this is fixable? Just a new digitizer right? Also I'm on att and the nexus s only supports Edge for att since its the T-Mobile variant? do you think it's a good deal?
Thanks
U should ask first how much it cost to be fixed before buying it...

Agrees wholly with mixtapes08. The cost for repair makes all the difference.
For reference, doesn't the Infuse 4G cost $100 on a 2year contract on AT&T? No need to repair at all, if you're willing to go on contract.

You're missing the point. The guy wants to know if the screen is easily repairable because he has a chance to score a Nexus S for ~$100 plus repair costs.
Unfortunately I don't know the answer, I have never repaired my screen.

Yeah, I can see that. And by the sounds of it, he wants to use the phone on his AT*T network. So why not just purchase a new phone which is basically equivalent for the same cost without having to spend more to repair it?
Just offering alternative ideas, yo. Of course, if the OP wants specifically the Nexus S, then that's also cool.

Yea its more if I get it without a plan, my next upgrade isn't til January, so still a while from now
Update: now his friend is offering a fully working nexus s for 120$. I think ima go for it
it will cost a good penny anywhere from $90 to $180, I know becuase mine is cracked. The screen and the digitalizer are fused together so you'll have to replace both. the screen is 75.99 on Amazon and u need the double sided tape as well which is like 9.99 on amazon. I called samsung they quoted me like 120 to 200.

Hey everyone, has anything been mentioned yet about being able to purchase the soon to be released Samsung Infuse off-contract? Tried looking around, but didnt see anything. Anyone have some insight on this? Thanks!
4.5" touch screen? i wonder how far they'll go.. 5" by the end of next year?
and i thought the htc desire hd was huge...
Bump. Anyone have an update on this? The day is nearing...
Thought it was just me. I've been looking frantically as well but can't find anything! Another thing where are the infuse forums! The phone is out in 5 days and were basically homeless. Back to price... I can't really see it bring over the price of the atrix which is 499... 199 on contract. So I think it'll fall right in line around there

Weird I got no trouble at all. Walked in said I wanted one off contract. He walked out back and got one, asked if I wanted a case or dock or anything, I got the car dock (its sick) and then he rang me up. Smooth deal.
Got mine, 1 click root worked. Use latest version of 1 click (1.9 I believe).

$549.99 at AT&T store, $599.99 at Walmart/Best Buy.
i work at an ATT dealer in GA
and our system says cost price 500$

im probably gonna just buy one outright from my dealer for $500

Just curious? What would you have gone to if you did cancel?
First let me introduce myself.
I have been following android forums for past year after switching from iPhone
During that time I rooted few phones installed custom rooms bricked some and so on.
Currently I'm using infuse after switching from Dell streak.
I purchased my infuse at local AT&T store and I was given $100.00 off without really asking much for it. I'm on contract and I didn't qualified for any discount even though I got it at $100 off. Retail no commitment price for it is $549.99 hope that Helps.
I had to sign up for 2 year contract extension though, but I don't care about that.
I love the phone, I have rooted it and Im waiting for custom roms.

So, if you're eligible for wind tab (which is not that easy with there credit check expectations) why don't you go Galaxy Nexus? I'm not too sure about the current price, though.

Honestly, I don't know exactly how it is working with the tab. I assume they deduct a certain percentage from your monthly charges toward the price of the device, so eventually you will come to zero if you gonna stick with them long enough. There is no such a thing as 3 years term with wind, you pretty much contract free. Give them a buzz, they will explain, especially when it comes to changing plans.

If you want a brand new device for wind, I wouldn't get the g2x at this point especially from wind cuz their prices are marked up. Just add a little bit of cash and get the $399 galaxy nexus someone posted a deal for here. If u can't spent that much money then u can find a used g2x on kijiji/eBay for around $200. Also, there's gonna be the g4x from tmo that's gonna be compatible with wind but I wouldn't buy LG at this point cuz the g2x was enough. Not that they are totally assholes, I think its just that they can't make good software for their hardware. Its up to u of course, but I think getting a g2x used wouldn't be such a bad deal. Maybe even get one with a broken digitizer for dirt cheap and just fix it if u like a challenge. Believe it or not some people are really that clueless. A friend of mine bought an iPhone 4 from some old Guy for a $100 cuz the man didn't know/didn't wanna go through the hassles of fixing it.
Whatever u do don't get the phone new from wind unless u like paying top price for obsolete technology. I mean it can still stay on par with today's phones performance wise but not in screen size/amount of(unnecessary) cores. Let us know your choice

i am looking for a phone that around $100 cash + $25 monthly for plan. the brand and company doesn't matter for me . I dont want to used phone because I am new in Canada... it is hard to fix for me right now.
i wont buy lg optimus 2x P999 in this situation..
Well if ur new in Canada then I guess you don't have credit history, and as far as I know wind doesn't give out tabs to people who can't give some kind of credit history and proof that they have income. Thing is, you wont find a g2x for $100 unless something is wrong with it. Even if u do get windtab, you will still have to pay out the full price which is like $300-$400 and it would come in like $3-$5 each month on top of your regular bill. So in a year or two, if you are still with wind you will still be paying out the full price of the phone, might as well drop another hundred and buy the phone outright.. just some advice on what I would do...

That's not true. The wind tab does not add anything to your monthly bill. It takes 5% from each payment and puts it towards your tab. You can pay your tab off three ways 1) your monthly 5%s pay off your tab 2) you wait 3 years and wind pays it for you or 3) you get tired of your phone so you pay off the remaining balance before your 3 years are up.
If you can get the tab it's well worth it. Because you're guaranteed to at least pay less than what you would've had to if you bought it out right and brand new

I dropped my phone yesterday and cracked the glass. It's still functioning but very annoying to use and I'm sure next drop will finish it.
What are my options?
I've called Rogers (our carrier in Canada) they want $345 to fix it and I've called independent shops. They want anywhere from $205 to $245 to fix it (I'm assuming these would be aftermarket components).
What if I buy the components from ebay and do it myself. Is it doable?

I have just recently replaced my screen and was in the same boat as you. The part itself is around the $200 range where-ever you look. Yes, they are expensive screens.
Depending on your skill level, I found it fairly easy to replace myself but there are some repair shops all over that charge minimally for the actual repair; myself, here in my part of the Country (by Calgary), I charge $40 for the repair.
Don't know if that helped you or not but the site I got my screen from is cellphonepartscanada, just have to google it.
about $150 to do it yourself.

I've used them for my Nexus 7 and they were pretty fast in resolving the claim. Their price on smartphones seems kinda high including the deductible (it's half the cost of a new 32GB Nexus) so I passed on it.

That price is absurd ($125 for two years with $99 deductible). Most repairs cost less than the plan + deductible. Assuming the most common claim is a cracked screen this plan is a ripoff. Squaretrade used to be a good deal.

Not trying to sound like a **** but how about being extra careful? I've had a smartphone for years and I have never broken one.
If you have either homeowners insurance or renters insurance, ask your company if they cover phones as an "additional insured" item. Mine does, and covers the full amount of the phone with no deductible for $7 per YEAR. I've only had to use it once in the past, but it's great for those who are careful with their phones but just want that extra security. HTH.

Just wondering everyone's take on the two, as I'll be ordering my moto x pure on friday.
If the warranty is voided by unlocking the bootloader, how does squaretrade work? I've never used them.
Moto's plan is much cheaper overall than SquareTrade. When considering the up front cost and deductible. And Moto's plan can be used twice during the 2 year period. For me the choice was easy.
If doing a claim with Moto is a slow hassle, it will be no worse than claims I've had with Squaretrade.
Do you have to buy the phone through moto to sign up for motocare? I got it from Amazon.

If you purchased the phone on Amazon, there's not an option under "My Stuff" on the Motorola site to purchase Moto Care. They know about it and are working on a fix so those of us who bought from Amazon should be able to purchase it soon. I don't have the link on me, but in the Motorola support forums there's a thread about the issue.
Went ahead and signed up for moto care, too good to pass up. One cracked screen will pay it off

I originally had the motocare in my cart but after reading the fine print I decided against it. They don't cover lost/stolen and if the phone has excessive damage they also won't cover it. I don't plan on dropping my phone and running it over but you never know and I don't want to have to worry about if my device is going to be covered when I send it in.

No basic warranty covers lost or stolen phones. If you want that covered, thats what home owners insurance is for. If you tied a string to your phone and to the back of your car and dragged it, obviously it won't be covered. Accidental damages are fine like drops on the floor and what not. But if you dog got to your phone and chewed it up, that probably won't be covered. Pretty much anything that can be repaired will be covered.
Square Trade is good.
I've had a tablet and a camera claim.
Tablet - they gave me a full refund on a two year old device.
The camera, they sent a replacement in a week.
Square Trade doesn't care about software. They warrant a device.
I also read the fine print and decided to forgo the Moto Care, since the the payout on a cracked screen is low enough to make it not worth it. However I'm very curious about these two companies handle real world issues.
If its true that Square Trade is cool about refunding a whole device after two years, then that makes their 3yr $40/year plan a great deal.
Tell me what happened to your camera and tablet. Did they charge you the $75 deductible when they replaced them?
I just cancelled my moto care and got the 3 year square trade for $119.99. It covers up to 4 claims. Hoping I'll never need to use it but I'm sure if I do, 4 is more than plenty.
