Farewell Glacier peeps

My Galaxy Nexus showed up yesterday so I will be moving over there now. It's been great with all of you. I bought this phone off of GOOGLE play website and am very happy with it so far. I'm hoping to find a buyer for my glacier soon cause it's still such a nice phone and would hate for it to just end up in a drawer.

Hey man how much was your Gnexus? $400?
Also, the Galaxy is actually easier to root and stuff, its just the flasghing part that's a bit more annoying... IMHO

Yeah I paid 399 for it. Easy to root and unlock. Flashing rom from cwm recovery just like you can on glacier. Already rooted it and running AOKP rom with franco kernel.

I'm running the exact same setup as you. Franco kernel is bomb isn't it? Sounds are nice and the screen even looks better than it already is. Did you get Franco's kernel app control?

Any idea what price you would set the glacier at for sale? I know this isn't the marketplace but I'm curious because I have family members who paid $190 a month ago... but I paid $175 for mine a year ago.... what's a fair market price assuming normal wear/tear

If I had the money to get a new phone right now, I'd sell mine for $125 or just give it to my youngest bro. It still looks new too.

MT4G is still no slouch. I'm sure once your contracts up something nice will be out by that time.

Yeah, I'm planning to just ride this phone out until the end of the contract (late December). Development is still surprisingly strong, I don't play any graphically intensive games, and the phone never fails me for anything.

My family on my contract wants to switch so I have to keep this phone until two years from June 2011 (someone bought an sgs)
God.

Psh, I can't upgrade for like another 10 months. I want a Gnex, so I might try to get one this summer since I'll be working. I might even try to get a weekend job for that extra $$$.

Thats what I thought about the iPhones/iPads :silly:

My skyrocket is 100% functioning, except... The screen is broken as well as the glass, I can turn it on and see my files when I plug it into my computer, anyone willing to buy it off me for around 100~ all you need to do is to replace the screen. PM me if anyone's interested!

guess i got lucky and got mine for 140 & 25 unclocking it since att did not want to unlock it for the girl.
she upgraded to the s3. I almost got a i777 for 120 but that girl sold it to someone else for 100.
I don't need lte as hspa is fast enough for my needs. Maps, fb, scanning & browsing a bit.
Rooted Modded Now to mod it a little more.
Glad to have a phone that is good enough for my needs.

Moving on to the Galaxy Nexus

Hey guys. I'm probably not a well known user, but I wanted to say that I'm moving on to the galaxy nexus.
I found a good deal here in Mississauga for only 400 for an unlocked HSPA+ version. I just got it today at noon and I've gotten pretty impressed with the speed, smoothness and stability of this phone. The screen is also HD and has better colors. The camera actually looks a bit better although its only 5 mp. I'm pretty happy with my choice.
Again, I'm not leaving the g2x community, I'm just using the gnex as my main phone now. On the other hand, I can't wait for the g2x to get a fully working ICS port.
Again, I hope the best for the fate of the g2x. I'll be there to witness and experience evey moment. I hope you had a good time reading this. Have a good day/night.

Yeah, taxes were included and the phone was brand new. The box was unopened and the plastic covers were on the screen and on the back. The sticker was on the box and it didn't look like it had been tampered with. Everything was in the box and it was wrapped in a thick plastic with Samsung branding. There were no scratches or marks so the phone was probably brand new.
Oh, and my carrier is Wind.

There are/were many threads about people moving on to another device and usually a moderator closes the threads due to them finding it pointless I guess.

Then it'll get shoved off when it's time for judgment has come.
I just don't see a point in people coming into a thread just to bash someone when it's not even a big deal.
If you REALLY don't care, then just stay out of it and let the mods deal with it. Let the man leave and be happy with his new phone.
Obviously not directing that at you, buru.

I have also bought a Galaxy Nexus and a Galaxy S II X, and one of them will replace my WIND branded P999DW. Thus my P999DW will be for sale very soon now.
I haven't received my GN yet as it is still in the US, but so far the S II X seems very nice.
WIND has no updates and the official OS is 2.2 still. It is sad as a flag ship model costing $445. when I bought it 11 months ago.

Do any devs need a SGS4G?

I've upgraded phones and have a good working SGS4G for any of you devs that need it. Hopefully that will make up for me being cheap and only using the thanks button rather than donating.
