Upgrade - General Questions and Answers

I've heard of ATT allowing upgrades earlier than the expected date. How many months in advance would they let you upgrade without the 250$ fee?

it's a truth of the world that salesmen will lie to make a sale, it now appears that they will lie to prevent a sale....
no nexus S will ever be sim locked.
As far as I know every single Nexus S is factory unlocked (Google requirement)...
So does that mean the salesman is just lying?cuz at&t wanta it to be called "locked"?
Btw thanks for replies guys!

I've seen too many cellphone salesmen say so many incorrect things about devices, or their own plans and policies that I usually bundle them with used car salesmen until they've "proven themselves"...

Leaving the GS4G

I took advantage of this weekends "free" phone for upgrade or a new contract and grabbed the t mobile Galaxy S 2. Ive been on the galaxy bandwagon since I had first got my vibrant and plan to stay on it. I just wanted to say thanks to raverx3x, dsexton, fbis251, the whole team acid, krylon360, dr honk, whitehawkx, airfluip and all the other devs who have prevented us from throwing our phones out the window while going 60mph. And thank you for sticking with us despite much trolling. ill be selling mine shortly but ill stick around here and always am willing to answer anyones questions, and hope I see some familar faces in the gs2 side of the forums. Peace.

You made the right decision.

It was less of a decision to leave the phone as much as it was to get a newer phone for free instead of shelling out a couple hundred $ later on.
We're u due for an upgrade or added a new Line?

I was due for an upgrade. What i didnt know was that you have to switch to an unlimited plan for the promotion. Which at 20$ more a month doesnt sound to bad. Might switch back after i get my rebate though lol. And thanks ive been waiting to get that having a new phone itch back. I love it so far. Familiar but different as well.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
so you didnt have to add a line? is it just free upgrades on all the lines?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Only if you qualify for a full uograde. Otherwise youd have to add a line.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Just to clarify, this promotion was TODAY ONLY, and only at corporate Tmobile retail centers.
Online as well i believe

You're right, online as well. I was more gearing towards this offer not being available at Walmart and Staples, etc. (But im sure if you asked a price match could be brought into play )

Photon Q at Best Buy for $49 now

In case anyone was still on the fence but considering it, now's a good time to jump...saw someone over on Phandroid post about getting one for this price and verified for myself:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Motorola+-+Photon+Q+Mobile+Phone+-+Black+(Sprint)/6036051.p?id=1218716261717&skuId=6036051&contract_desc=
So glad I just spent 2 hundo on mine...
Sent from the collective. Resistance is futile.
Had I waited a week I would be fine. Went last week when it was $99. Ah well, better than 2 bills Sprint still wants.
This makes me wonder if the plan on supporting this thing. Shame, as for a phone whither a physical keyboard its pretty nice

You can pay to have your upgrade early, it only cost me 35 to bump it up a few months.

Bestbuy will pricematch other retailers as long as retailer has the phone in stock, so bb should price match costco's price.

New phone every year - Australia

I want a phone plan that gives me a new phone every year, do any exist?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I don't think there is any companies that will do it. I know some of them will let you upgrade after 6 months but you will be paying extra on your bill.
Sent from my LG-P690 using xda app-developers app
Vodafone do 1 year contracts, you just pay a monthly handset payment.
Sent from my EndeavorU using xda premium
Im not sure how different Australia is for phone plans but what I would do in the USA is buy the phone unlocked & brand new for $500-800 USD and pay by the month to which ever carrier/mvno you like.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda app-developers app
So far I've gotten a new phone every year because my girlfriend and I share a plan and she never uses her upgrades. So this year both of our phones are due to upgrade and I will be getting the SIV and will probably give her my SIII (last year I got the 3 and gave her my 2).
