Thinking About Getting a G2x

So Someone localy is gonna sell me there 3 month old G2x thats in good shape for 100 dollars.. I currently Have AT&T. I know it says it doesnt support AT&T`s 3G bands. But I also read somewhere that it is possible. I dont know what the posting date for that was. But Would there be any way as of now? or is it still A no go.
And Would it be worth buying for the 100 to resale it maybe?
Also what would be the process of unlocking it? cause with my galaxy S2 I downloaded an app. Could I call up tmobile asking for it since I dont have a tmobile account? or how much would it cost for me to get it unlocked? (The cheapist site) Thanks

Buy it for $100.
Resell on ebay $220-260 depending on the condition

well im gonna get it tonight or tommrow. Whats a good place online and cheap and rep that I could get an unlock code maybe quick after I get the phone?

The first question you should be asking is why is he only selling it for $100? He could easily get double that. Just because the phone is only 3 months old doesn't mean nothing is wrong with it. I buy and sell phones on craigslist quite frequently and I'm always wary of the deal that seems too good to be true. Remember, often times, if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is....I'd exercise extreme caution.

Well where I live is small so it wasn't found on craigslist. it was on a LOCAL Facebook page and I have a few mutual friends (Family Friends) with them. and they orginaly asked 150 and I got them down to 100. Where I live ppl dont have a good knowledge on tech stuff. I dont even uses cragslist much cause the closest city is about an hour away

Got it. Great shape too just needs cleaning.

Definitely looks good enough to sell on eBay for DOUBLE what you paid for it. Until then, download some games and play around with it.

Some ahole complained and I had to remove the link from my signature. Some jerk-off from the AT&T Nitro HD thread. PM me for my website for unlock code. Thanks for thinking of me.
BTW, $100 for a G2X is a steal, whether you get 3G service or not. If you want to spend more money look for the new Lg Nitro HD for AT&T. 1.5Ghz dual core Qualcomm cpu and larger screen and on AT&T you get 3G and LTE.

I suspect vzw also. And i wont buy anything other than htc for build quality alone. You can have those flimsy other phones with easy dev and updates, but htc makes great phones. I was sold when my dinc got submerged in water yet continued to work great for a year.

Well, from the looks of that post... They are saying that they are trying to get more information regarding the progress of the update from the "inside". Which, to me, that implies their development team. I could be wrong, but it's speculation. No word back after that last post I made...
P.S.
I just noticed that the message was cut off from HTC. Here is the full reply they made regarding my comment.
We fully understand that this situation is less than ideal. We are waiting on a status update internally and as soon as we hear more from them we will pass it along here. We're just as eager to learn more as you. We apologize and we can assure you that we're doing as much as we can to get you the answers that everyone here is asking for.

How bout just giving us a good kernal and let the devs on this site take it from there!

What would lead you to believe the flunky who posts on facebook for htc knows anything or.even anyone to ask? He is told what to say and he says it. Asking him a question tells you no more.than asking a vzw store salesman anything. We probably know more about.it.than either of those "company reps "

I love the part about "you work at HTC" so go ask.... How many people work at HTC ? Haha !!! Someone has no clue about big companies.

I know other see it differently but the way I see it... that is a very corporate way of saying "go f*** yourself". I think they're just hoping we will forget so they don't have to push an update. Sadly enough the Photon 4G the first 4G Tegra phone for Sprint got that very sad news recently. I just don't think that HTC will balls up and tell us. /negativity
I'm feeling a Facebook protest page for this lack of service.

I'm starting to believe you're right after Motorola did this to Atrix owners a few days ago. I know it's a stupid dream, but I like to imagine that, in the future, some company will introduce a phone that runs AOSP and has chips with open-source drivers. What a cool gadget that would be.

Someone should start an online petition and make HTC / VZW put the update out !

Make them? LMFAO! Good luck on making either company do anything.
Both are huge companies that are supporting several devices, with prime focus going to development for new tech. Think about it, the TB is an old cell, we were lucky to see the leak. How much money will HTC make by putting ICS on TB? Nothing.
IMO, we got one update and a leak for a 2nd... we should only hope for an update, if it comes.. cool. If not, either wait for a dev or move on.
Sometimes the sense of entitlement from some posters in this forum is mind blowing.
Make them... I'm still laughing about that.

There seems to be a lot of tension here, and people do need to understand that this is an old phone. We were the first to get 4g LTE, and we had to be the guinea pigs for the network so with some awkward hardware and a non-standard RIL. HTC still made an excellent piece of hardware that I carry without a case or even a screen protector, and I will admit, I've dropped it and it has no scratches and no chips in it. I'd buy a new HTC phone on Verizon if it wasn't for Verizon's new policies. Heck, I'd be open to buying a phone off contract so I get out at any time, but I'm not going to do it because I have to, and as a reasonable data consumer who does have unlimited I feel no reason to pay the same(actually, more in my case) for less. I use ~4gb per month on my own, which is certainly acceptable and is in no way excessive, and shared data will raise my bill. As soon as my contract runs out(or I finally get PO'd at verizon and pay the ETF) I'm switching to Sprint and I'll be purchasing the HTC Evo 4G LTE.
I am certain that Verizon wants people to get off unlimited, so they will deny any updates for the Thunderbolt, because the earliest buyers are conveniently eligible for early upgrades now. I know of somebody who went into the store to buy a new battery and they tried to sell him a new phone because his was supposedly still running GB(which is false, he had Liquid ICS installed, LOL) and it is an older version of Android.

That makes sense. As far as the new policies go, they are dropping the unlimited data plan for anyone who upgrades to a phone? I know someone who upgraded about a year ago, as well as switched over his phone to someone elses family plan and retained his unlimited data

Plus you have to pay the phone upgrade charge now!

Holiday Specials for GSIII on Verizon

Anyone know of upcoming specials I might wait for?
I'm looking at pulling the trigger on one of these in the next 3-10 days.
Looks like right now if I want a Black one I can get it for $199 on contract.. but if I want white or another color, I'm paying at least $244-249.. which I don't understand, but whatever.
Thanks for your input!

i doubt they will be black friday prices but they should be cheaper. Just gloating, I snagged on from Sam's Club for $.98.:silly:

Too late now but sams club had a free with two year contract. I'm sure something like that will come around again.

I had purchased mine at a 3rd party verizon dealer that offered price matching and took in a screen shot of Amazon's price and got the phone for 60$ (though the week before i had paid 80 for my girlfriend's the same way, the price went down after a week, i was quite surprised)

I got mine at staples on saturday and made $30 on the deal. They took my old Dinc2 and gave me $50 for it. I got another $5 in store coupon which brought it down to $45r for the phone. They also were doing a $50 mail in rebate on all phones $99 and up which puts $5 in my pocket. They also gave me a $25 Google play gift card. Needless to say, I upgraded both my phone and my wife's phone too. With both phones they paid me $60 to take them.

Who's returning their 9gb for a 25gb?

I think we can start a lawsuit against samsung for false advertising. Just joking but when you say I'm getting 16gb, that means 16gb. I dont give a rats **** what youre thinking about installing etc etc just dont use my space and say I have a 16gb device. Sorry for the quick rant but really who's going to go with the "32gb" version?

While I would gladly pay the additional $50 to upgrade, I don't want to pay that plus a $35 restocking fee too. Then it wouldn't be worth it especially if there is a fix to allow the swapping of internal/external memory.

I'm leaning towards doing this and come back only and when the bootloader is unlockable for sure on the 32gb version. I updated with the ota yesterday and who knows what that mucked up. I know its been marked as a safe ota sorta but this locked bootloader situation isnt making me want to keep this 16gb thing. But one thing I know is I do like this device, performance not bad at all, battery life better than I expected. I'll come back for a 32gb unlockable at&t device and if not I guess I'll go international. Cant wait for custom roms

I am for sure

not I... 16 GB of free space isn't worth $86 to me...

Some folks have been able to get a refund on their $35 restocking fee after calling in to a CS retentions rep. Be nice as usual. I've been thinking of telling them that I won't renew my contract if you charge me a restocking fee. It might or might not work but if I do exchange, I plan to talk to a retention rep & ask for a refund.

i wont be switching. 9GB is still plenty large for my taste. If I need more space, an SDCard will suffice.

Nope, I've already got a 32GB microSD card in there and if/when I fill that up I'll be able to pick up a 64GB for less than the price difference between a 16GB and a 32GB,

I'm on the fence here, only thing really pushing me towards returning the device is the darn ota I installed yesterday.

Verizon is shipping on the 4th!

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...

Definitely hopeful that this isn't a hoax!

Talked to a rep earlier about upgrading my shipping to overnight and she said maybe the 8 or 10

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,

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?
