I'm having the worst luck. My wife and I ordered 2 brand new mytouch4g's last saturday through tmo customer loyalty for a total of 400 bucks (200each) for both phones. They didnt send the EIP acceptance until tuesday after i called them. I accepted they charged my card and I got a text message saying my order went to fulfillment Nov 12th. Well yesterday I called and they told me that the phone is backordered. wtf...! i already sold my current phones and now they don't even have an ETA of when the phones would be available. This is pretty lame.
Whoew!!!..really feel bad for you. But its a good thing,now that alot of people have mytouch 4g that means that this phone will be light up. All the dev team will be supporting this phone like crazy.

Man, never sell your phone until you have the new ones in hand, and then don't sell them until you had the new ones a few days and checked out any bugs. It's called "common sense" and it's not taught in schools anymore! I ordered mine on Sunday when the new plans came out, they shipped Monday and are arriving today. I'd like to get my Evos on ebay, but waiting for 1-30 days until they are checked out. I have 30 days to return/exchange them and cancel the contract so I'm not porting my numbers over until everything checks out, and that includes the billing. It's so easy for them to promise a given price on the phone and then have your first bill be totally different than what's quoted. Then, and everyone hates to do this, you have to call your carrier and have a big fight. I'll keep the number they issued me and have my sprint number "forwarded" to this phone while I check it out. This plan will save a lot of potential headache.
This doth not bode well. I just ordered another MT4G too. Ugh. I hope they get their supply issues resolved.
man, that really sucks...hope you have at least something to use for the time being. If not, you can probably pick one up off craigslist for dirt cheap to at least have a phone until they come in.
I never sell my old phones...my wife hates it, but I have a good 7 foot stack of phone boxes in our bedroom closet, and I constantly buy phones I dont even use from craigslist myself
My daughters will go through them once in awhile and want to use one now and then...but sadly, they always want to go back to their iPhones.
I bought my first one through TMO on launch day. But, I just ordered one for my wife on Monday through WireFly and it just came today. WAY better price than buying through TMO. Call them and you can get a better deal than what's posted on their site.
The only thing about them is they bombard you with "additional" great offers while you are on the phone with them. Don't buy their insurance plan, it's crap. I bought it and found out it didn't cover water damage at all, so no dropping the phone in the crapper by accident. And it won't cover theft from an unoccupied building... so if I leave my phone at home, go somewhere, and get burglarized; it won't be covered. Worthless. I called and canceled the crappy insurance. It's not eligible for a TMO $6/mo protection plan when you buy it through WireFly, but if you bring it into the store and show them it's not damaged, they will give you a $4.75/mo plan that is the same as their $6/mo plan, but the difference is that it doesn't include equipment malfunction/failure. Only covers damage or theft.
yeah i havent found it in stock anywhere in my area...i really want one !
wow that does suck they had a lot of them right by my house in cali. i just returned my white one for a black one at the store and they did it no problem. but if u dont have a phone, just go to a tmobile store and tell them what happened and try to get a loaner phone. thats what i had to do for a day cause i sold my hd2 so i can upgrade to the mytouch 4g but it wasnt gonna come out for another day when i sold my phone.
I bought 2 MT4Gs on NewEgg.com
I found the MT4G in stock on NewEgg...i ordered 2 (1 black and 1 White) i was about to buy them on amazon for $119 and saw they wouldnt be delivered until Dec. 28th...so went over to trusty NewEgg.com and they had the same price ...Ordered on Monday the 15th and will be delivered tomorrow...hurry the might still have them ..btw i checked back on NewEgg the following day and the price was up to 149$
FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @Face_Melter we can be MT4G friends...lol
The stores are usually stocked... I would try there. Also they will let u swap within the 14 days at a tmobile store too even if you got the original phone from the 800 number.
I bought my mytouch 4g from newegg when it came our for $79. Last i saw target mobil was selling it for 79 too so check it out. I just dont understand why people are buying this phone for 200.
I got mine from Radio shack for $149(2 year upgrade). Plus Radioshack gave me $130 for my HD2 with wall charger and $60 for my G1 and wall charger. So I paid nothing for my MT4G. And I bought a car charger for it.

You really don't understand the concept behind tiered pricing? Seriously?
I just ordered one for $267 and paid for 3 day shipping from retentions. Got tired of the Vibrant GPS not working. If I paid for 3 day shipping I better damn well get it. We'll see I guess.
I got my 4G Black, at costco, say would I be able to walk into t-mob and exchange for a red one? curious, as I still have a week before the 14 days are up.
it's those damn commercials that is making this phone sell like crazy

Considering selling?
My wife had problems with her MyTouch 4G speakerphone and had me get her a "simple" phone. I'm supposed to receive a brand new one from T-Mobile within the next week and I am thinking about selling it. What should I expect it should sell for? Thanks.

Since T-mobile is selling it for $450 new with buyers remorse, warranty, and option to add insurance, I would probably shoot for 400 if it's still unused.
I got mine on the day it was released, 10am my local tmobile store opened up and I was the 1st customer there. Paid like 320 for the MT4g cuz I wasn't in my full upgrade Price. but then I sold my HD2 for 350 so I thought hey Might as well buy the new phone... When I got home and the wife saw that I had the new MT4G she wanted one too. So I went back 2 days later and got the white one for her paid 200 for hers..
I think that all these 3rd party websites are ordering all these phones from tmo so that's why the main tmobile is backed ordered. But if you go to the stores they have them stocked up...
Im so depressed lol. Blackberry sucks. I remember when i use to love their phones. Now that i have been long exposed to android i dont know what to do without them. Here's my story: First G2X blew out on me during a call and i returned it. The rep in the store couldnt turn it on and try to find signs of water damage which there werent any. Second G2X had serious bleeding in the upper corner. I tried to disregard it but im very anal about my devices especially when i buy them outright. I returned it and got credit on my account that supposedly cant be touched unless i notify tmobile. My friend works for tmobile and told me a new shipment is coming in a little after Mothers day. So ill try my luck again and hopefully get a good unit. I dont really suggest anyone buy one via craigslist or ebay but as you can see most sellers are not accepting returns. Wish me luck guys.
i work at a tmobile store and we get shipments every business day. no deliveries saturday/sunday
dont know why they wouldn't be getting anything til after mothers day. plus we only get notifications 4 days ahead of time of what the shipment contains.

Did you use a debit card or cc? They dont give you money back? I'm thinking about returning mine... They give you store credit back?
was this a corporate owned location?
we always give full refunds within 14 days of purchase for contract extensions and 30 days of purchase for full-price. if it was through a third party retailer it would make much more sense as to why they only give you credit.
it was a tmobile seller not a tmobile retailer. they said i can use the credit to go to a actual tmobile store to purchase it. im waiting because i dont want any problems. i know all cell phones have issues but i would rather have a issue that can be fixed by a soft mod or something.
You should wait for the Samsung Galaxy S2. The super amoled plus screen should be awesome. I miss my Samsung Vibrant screen, but I'm happy with my LG G2X overall.

is that true about the 30 days for full price purchasers? or is that california only? i bought mine online from tmo. i never heard of this policy. can more than one person confirm this please?
Just got G2X for the wife, fast phone. There is slight bleeding but very minor and how many G2x I have to go through for it to be perfect.
I'm waiting for SGS2 myself. Superamoled has more pop to its colors. G2X has more natural white. Superamoled + should be better and bigger screen.

as far as i know the 30 day policy for full price is nation-wide in corporate retail stores.
it prints out the policy on every single one of our receipts on the bottom, and i'd imagine it would do that in the whole country as well.
My story:
My phone had bleeding/rebooting issues so I decided to exchange.
Called T-Mobile and explained the issues.
CCR told to pack it and send it to T-Mobile Return Center and call them as soon as I shipped it with the tracking number and they will send me the exchange right away. (cool)
I went to my UPS online account, created a shipping label (with tracking number).
Called T-mobile again and told them:
- I just sent my defective phone back here is the tracking number ........ .
CCR started ordering my replacement (took some time, apparently was having a hard time).
At the end, CCR said to me: Okay I had to cancel your order and we will reimburse your money in a couple of days, and we will need to make a new order. (thats when it came to me)
- Can I bye it at my local store so if it has any problem I can exchange in-store?
CCR: Sure thats very smart of you.
No restocking fee, they will pay my shipping.
Already bought it at the store and will be sending the other one tomorrow.
- The new one has the same bleeding problem, same poor signal strengths. At least I haven't had any reboot YET. Will wait for a couple of days without rooting to make sure it is not a rooting issue.

thanks. i think alot of people are under the assumption it's 14 days. thanks for pointing that out. i have 10 days after today, got mine last tuesday. mine has slight bleed in top right corner only.room has to be dark to see it. and even with gingerbread black status bar, the clock will hide it. or should. i really hate to return it. it's a great phone. and too many exchange nightmares out here. and....nothing better coming out anytime soon. sensation looks nice.....nice and locked though. what would you do? i think i'm just gonna keep it and keep bugging lg. i started a thread in their forum. and i've been emailing them. no response yet. i'm telling them i demand they personally replace my screen with a non defective one. we'll see how far that goes.

keep us updated.
i work in a tmobile store and always check every g2x before it goes out. pretty much every single one i've seen has had some sort of bleeding (opened at least 15 boxes in store)
so honestly i think the best bet is to get a replacement or repair done by LG directly instead of just exchanging it for another one.
my g2x also has a bit of bleed, but i'm going to wait till CM7 comes out to see if its noticeable or not.
everyone should keep in mind that these phones do come with a 1yr manufacturers warranty, and the screen bleed issue does fall under that warranty. so even if you miss your tmobile exchange window, you're still covered.
So Thursday I went up to best buy to get me an ATT S4. I have the s3 and had an upgrade available and best buy has the trade in program. Says that they'll give $250 for an s3 in good condition which mine is in. So I go thru the upgrade process, have the sim card put in my new beautiful s4, start updating my apps, set up, etc.
The best buy rep now says 'let me have your s3 and so i can do the credit.' He looks at it and there is a tiny, miniscule little chip on the cheap back battery cover, so small that you can barely see it. He then tells me that he can only take the phone trade in value of $112! My jaw dropped and I pleaded with him to no avail. He wouldn't budge. Frustrated, I told him to reverse the upgrade and to give me my s3 back and I left.
I went to amazon and ordered a replacement back cover and it will be here monday. Im gonna go back and hopefully upgrade to the s4 then.
Anyone else have an issue like that?

Next time, just sell it. I sold mine for 350$
In my opinion.
I refuse to go to Best Buy for anything. I've never seen a good deal there and their warranties and support is not good in my opinion. The only good thing about Best Buy is I make money off of fixing Geek Squad mistakes.
Yes I do walk in from time to time to see if anything has changed.

Yep.
Sold mine two weeks ago on Craigslist for the same.
It was only advertised for two hours when the buyer offered to meet me at the local Ikea parking lot that same day and buy it.
Selling first is a good idea except I don't have a backup phone to use until I get the new one. Ive never sold on craigslist before. Success stories? Tips?

You could always make arrangements to sell it the same day you could goto the store to get your new phone.. Or you could always just have them meet you at the nearest best buy or att or whoever your carrier is and do the sale right there and go in and buy your new phone..
Always meet in person and never ship it somewhere.. Most of the people you get wanting to pay you more than your asking price and want you to ship it are a scam.. Craigslist is more local deals.. You meet up check out the item and go.. Its not like eBay where people all over the world are looking at your item

I had a One X. Tried a few times to trade it for a S3 on online classifieds. I didn't want to add cash so I stuck it out with the One X. Got a renewal and picked up a Note II, gave the One X to my wife and sold her iPhone 4. When she was ready for an upgrade she wanted a Note II like me. We tried to sell her One X for $200, no bites after a week. It was in good shape, no scratches, no cracks, no water damage etc. I was going to sell it on eBay, but after shipping and fees it was going to net me like $160. Best Buy said they would give me $150 if I brought the charger. I couldn't find the charger so I brought an old Kodak charger that was micro USB. All they did was power it on, set it aside and gave me the $150. The guy said earlier that day he gave someone $275 for an S3. Just like at&t customer service, it's all the luck of the draw. If you go back I wouldn't be surprised if the next person doesn't even look the phone over.

Might take not. I'm not 100% sure but they probably send the phones they buy to their centers for rapid exchange like they do with the busted phones they do exchanges on. MFG will give them credit for the phones.
lol AT&T gave my folks each $100 for their iPhone 3Gs, both with cables, labels, stickers, chargers etc. funny thing is they were beat/scratched to hell and back.

Once you get the new cover just sell it on swappa.com..you can use your xda login.
You can check out current pricing and it works great...and only $10 fee.
Don't do ebay..you pay 10% fee based on selling price.
On Amazon, about a week or two after I bought the S4 on launch I sold my i777 S2 for $199 and my S3 for $369. Best Buy's trade in program is pathetic. Its fairly easy to unlock Samsung devices. Do that before you sell them and you're guaranteed an increase in value.

Sheer evidence that Best Buy is an awful company.
I just got my S4 on ATT as well. I heard they started the trade in deal so I went to find the nearest store. Luckily it was a stand alone authorized dealer (not an actual ATT retail store) that I called ahead of time to make sure everything would run smoothly. They accepted my iPhone 4S even though the lock button was completely unusable. They were very nice and made sure I was comfortable with my new phone, they even called back a few days later to make sure the phone was still working properly.
Something that's NOT going to happen at Best Buy.
Good luck!

Awesome! I love the gelli cases so I picked up the other color for $15!

Has anybody that ordered from this deal actually gotten their cases shipped yet? I got an email saying that they had shipped my case on the 3rd by USPS First Class Mail, but the tracking continues to say that only the shipping label has been printed. There's been nothing beyond that to indicate the post office even got the package. Sent them a question about it, and haven't heard anything back from them, so starting to feel fishy.
Same here. Got the shipping notice at the end of last week, but USPS just says "shipping label created"
I also got a shipping notification on the 3rd and the tracking never updated.
About 30 minutes ago I got an e-mail from case mate stating that the case is out of stock and they do not know when they will have more stock to fill my order.
They are cancelling orders. I got this deal as well, got the tracking and shipment email from them and then got an email stating that my order was cancelled due to the item being out of stock and my refund should arrive in a few days. I called and asked if they could honor the price when they have stock again but was told it was "while supplies last." Bummer.
Wow, that's odd... they didn't cancel mine. Here's the e-mail I recieved:
Dear XXXXX,
I am contacting you today regarding your recent Case-Mate order XXXXXX. Your order's shipping label was generated and sent to processing for fulfillment and shipment. Regretfully, fulfillment has
notified us that the Moto X 2nd Gen Hula Cases color=Black/Charcoal (CM031158) is not available at this time.
At this time we do not have a definite date when the case will be available.
Please let us know if you wish to wait for stock. We can also cancel the order but would hate to see that happen.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

On a side note, I did a little digging around and this place seems to be the only one I can find that has this case available (http://www.thethingamajig.com/mobil...ough-frame-case-motorola-moto-x-2nd-gen..html) Wondering if I should just bite the bullet and pay the extra 10 bucks... I've been nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs carrying the phone around with no protection. Anyone know of anyone else that has this case (less than the $22 this place wants?)

I still haven't had any responses, and wish they could do me the courtesy of giving me that response much earlier, I would've cancelled long ago. Was really hoping to have had this case or SOME case on hand, now I got my Moto X today and no case. I guess I'll just pick up a cheap crystal clear case for now off Ebay.

I'm with you 100%. I got my phone on Monday and I've been stalking the mailbox the last couple of days waiting for the case to show up. Seems like something that should have taken less than a week to figure out (after telling me it was shipped!)

I'm tempted to try buying it off that site you linked and ponying up full price, but considering the manufacturer themselves screwed up on their stocking status, I don't trust that site much further. Might need to try emailing them first to confirm if they even have it in stock. With everybody having bought Moto X's in droves during Cyber Monday, I'm betting Moto X cases are out of stock everywhere right now, unless it's some ugly design or color.

I went ahead and cancelled my case mate order and ordered from that site (rather than obsess over it). I'll let you know if/when they ship it (and more importantly if I actually get it!)

I gave them an email and they replied within half an hour saying that they definitely had it in stock...so far so good as far as customer service goes, so I went ahead and placed an order for one. :good:

On a side note, I did a little digging around and this place seems to be the only one I can find that has this case available (http://www.thethingamajig.com/mobil...ough-frame-case-motorola-moto-x-2nd-gen..html) Wondering if I should just bite the bullet and pay the extra 10 bucks... I've been nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs carrying the phone around with no protection. Anyone know of anyone else that has this case (less than the $22 this place wants?)

Thanks for the link, I just ordered from them. Consulted this thread after checking my mailbox today with no Hula Bumper in sight. I can barely find any other site that carries the case, much less a site that is selling it for less than MSRP. Shame on Case-Mate for taking such a long time to respond. As of this post, I still haven't received anything from Case-Mate since the "shipping" confirmation on 12/4.
I messed up and didnt order one at release, now im wanting it pretty bad.
Anyone having luck finding it in the US? I have read reports from several people that some 3rd party vendors that are shipping from Korea are shipping out international version ( no samsung pay, right? ) so I'd like to avoid that.
Frys Electronics shows it available for shipping first week of Jan.
Id prefer to go through Best buy or amazon, anyone have some insider info on them? Customer support has zero info.
thank you!

I was able to find it at Best Buy.
I had the same problem. Couldn't find it anywhere, finally I took a chance, and went to craigslist, saw one going for $200 no box, I asked the guy if the charger came with it, he said yes. I took the chance, went for it, and it's just the watch, with the charger, (no cable or power block) but for $200 it's not bad. I factory reset it before I did anything, so far so good, everything works, Samsung pay works.
Best buy
None of the best buys in my area or anaheim, ca or las vegas have them in stock. The best my local best buy was able to do for me is give me a 10% off coupon ad they couldn't even let me place an order to secure the 299 price.
Been keeping an eye on Craigslist too, thank you guys!

I usually check nowinstock.net for email notifications when they come in stock at Best Buy, amazon or B&H.
https://www.nowinstock.net/electronics/smartwatches/samsung/
It actually looks like its in stock at best buy currently with free 2 day shipping: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-gear-s3-frontier-smartwatch-46mm-dark-grey/5647800.p
Aww snap! Thanks for that! I was at bestbuy not less then 2 hours ago and they were showing none. Anywhere. Ordering!
I Also got mine from Bestbuy about a week ago, but they were out of all the Bluetooth only editions. I ended up convincing them to sell me an ATT version for the same price and I'm just using it as Bluetooth only. Seems they are out of stock just about everywhere..
I ended up getting two shipped out. One came in today and the bezel clinks quite a bit. Going to see how it compares to the one arriving tomorrow.
Found one under my Christmas Tree. :good:
I just bought one today from my local Best Buy. No Best Buy locally had them until yesterday. Per the manager I bought mine from, they had a shipment of them come in yesterday. They only got 4. There was only 1 not ordered online that was available for anyone to walk in and buy. They didn't have a demo unit on the floor.
AT&T has a special if you upgrade a line, you can get the S3 for 50 bucks...just did it myself. Doesn't have to be the Flagship, either...any Galaxy phone.
Just walked into my local best buy today and they had one left. It was $350 though. They said they will price match until the 15th of January so hoping it goes on sale! Either that or Verizon announces they are getting a LTE model and I'm returning this one asap
Picked one up, the last one, at my local Best Buy. It was $350 but I was able to use a one time 10% discount. Came out to $337. A few bucks more than with tax on the sale price. Ordered from Samsung 3 weeks now and still no updates. Cancelled that order.
whoever is looking, I use this site to stalk the stock of the main website/stores to find most things and the watch was one of them. It even says at this exact moment amazon has them in stock

None of my Best buys stores in the Bay area has it in stock. Starting hitting craigslist and picked one up for $220, like new in box with all accessories and the receipt from Amazon. Can't express how much more comfortable this is compared to my S2.
They have alot in the Fort Worth Texas areas

Man i have had the same luck with Samsung. I ordered during the christmas sale and its been weeks. Aholes haven't shipped my order yet. Best buy has been out of stock since a long time near me, either. So i kept checking almost daily like a routine and finally found in stock, ordered and cancelled my Samsung order. The frustrating part is Samsung website has been showing The Frontier will ship in 1-3 business days since past coupla days. I called their agents and they all be like- "Oh sorry, it just means it will be delivered in 1-3 business days, once it leaves the warehouse. It is not what you think". WT?? Man I got so pissed calling them again and again with no luck, they all repeating the same sht. I have a strong feeling they are not shipping in the order received. I think brand new orders at full price are still being shipped sooner than those back orders sold at sale price.
