I have $60 towards another PhotonQ to send out to developers (AkA Photons4Devs) - Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE

I promised pwnyourace a Photon Q this week and had it not been for a family member dropping her Epic and it not being worth replacing, I gave my sister my second Photon Q. But I'm not one to break promises, and while money isn't exactly the easiest commodity at the house I live in to come by I do have at the moment $60 to put towards getting another phone for you my friend. Perhaps even more to send out to one or more developers that visit this section and I'm wondering would anyone else be willing to contribute a donation to the cause? Hell even a dollar would help, if I see any kind of interest in this, which does seem promising so far especially since I'm just an average user and I'm willing to drop a decent amount of money on this if others would help chip in.
How should i do this? I know this might be the wrong section so if it is Mods can you please put this where it does belong? Or if there is a dev right now that wants to upgrade but is short on cash, maybe I can help there too. Most importantly, however, I wantr to admit that I broke my promise to pwnyourace. I am not ashamed of the choice I have made (and I would do it again, family always comes first), and I STILL want to help out in any way I can. So I guess i"m asking if either pwnyourace wants to upgrade through sprint and I/we can help finance it OR maybe we can strike a deal with some devs and we can fund devices for those who need them in exchange for a promise to put in X amount of hours into development for said device.
If no one else wants to participate or is unable, I will add another $10-20 a week to my Photons4Devs fund and when there's enough in there you will receive a phone to work with, so worst case sceanario it might be mid-late march when it arrives.

I have $75 so far for a photon Q fund. anyone want to sell one ? I will pay and you ship it to pwnyourace.
Let's help out guys everyone wants software but no one wants to help people get us there.

I'll throw in $10. New development is always good though I'm more than happy with pwnyourace's modded ROM

I´ll also support this with 20$.

count me on.. will give $10 for this project.. any PayPal account?

Your "Donate to me" button isn't working. PM me a valid paypal account and I'll drop $30 in the hat.

I'll happily throw in $10 if you pm me or post a valid paypal account, too

I pm'ed pwnyourace to see if he has a PayPal we can send the donations too or if we should just find one for sale and PayPal the seller. Anyone have any other ideas? Seems like there's at least $100 so far so that should be enough. I'll check online tonight and see if any are available for that price.

If you can find a battery I got one with a bad ESN that I'm doing the gsm mod to before trying it on mine... But it won't have a battery since the battery on mine broke if you can find a battery for it its all yours

Thats great! But finding battery is not a piece of cake... The only one I found is there http://www.etradesupply.com/oem-motorola-photon-q-4g-lte-xt897-battery-eb41.html and its 33$ + 15$ shipping... maybe it would be wiser to buy photon q from ebay with broken screen, ive seen some before for around 50$....

solution maybe?
if everyone keeps their Word there are $155 dollars here in play, there is an auction for a ¨Good condition¨ Photon Q for $140 + $12.35 shipping
I´m willing to throw $10 through paypal if we can buy this phone. Auction is still open for 6 more days and its a buy it now... here is the link

They no longer have them on Swappa

I decided getting an extra battery for the extra phone was the cheapest route for us so I ordered it. I should have it in two weeks as soon as I get it I will send the phone off to him.I cant wait for more to be done with this phone.

Hey guys I will create a paypal account tonight and update the information and post a link here, I am at $90 right now towards the photon Q fund so I'll get one locally or if i get $200 i will use mjy sprint 2 year upgrade and get a brand new one sounds good?
Sorry I've been away for a little bit and i'm back home now ready to help our little community out.

dear bros..
any news for this issue? just let me know the paypal account or link so I could donate the fund..
@zvonkorp
sounds good if we could have a new one..

Mines up for grabs if anyone has an old evo or something they could give me. Certainly cheaper than buying a new phone.

EDIT: and both were sold via swappa. Buyers will be the people with the official OUDHS recovery on their photon q

My upgrade is due in may and I will give my phone to any dev.

Want to sell my Pro but

I am going to just dump it and loose allot of money. I want to make this a easy transaction if anyone is interested.
Were would I post this on the board?
I will meet locally or ship in the US only.
I would like to sell it to one of the ROM guys so they can keep going on developing new ROM etc. I will give it away for $720 that includes fedex 3 days shipping in the US. I payed 1100 for it plus shipping.
It does have a very very small scratch on the bottom corner of the phone. I haven t even used the charger since I had a older HTC charger. The USB is unused and the headphones are unused.
Let me know by PM and I will give you my email address.
if you want to see if the devs want it for that, i would make a short post in the elite rom thread (only because i think that not all of the devs have a device at the moment) otherwise, im not sure if there is a spot for selling devices on here, not one that i could find, so if none of the devs get back to you, throw it on ebay i guess. if i hadn't made the plunge for mine i would buy yours for sure.

I can't be sure of this becase I haven't work on the Touchpad yet because I don't have one, I'm trying to save money to buy one the next month. And if I get my Touchpad i'll try to do my best to port it to the Touchpad *ONLY IF THERE IS A SOURCE FOR IT*.
So I can try on the Pre 2 too.

Well here is not the right section, you should to MarketPlace subforum.
i would rather offer the savings to someone who actually plans to develop for it . i can just as easily make a profit on it considering retail the package would cost you $640

Wait so you don't want to pay a restocking fee yet you are hoping to get 530 for it.... you do know the restock fee is $35 right? You're losing money...........
Been around for 4 years and you make a thread like this? Wrong section for one and two no ebay links. Not buying the whole nephew story either. Not what I'd expect from an xda veteran.
Hit up Jcase if this is legit, hes looking to buy a phone, he stated that today in a different thread..
How old is it? 1st batch (1.73) or 2nd (1.85) batch?

He will be losing more than a little bit. After eBay, PayPal fees and shipping he will be losing about $120. Unless of course he is past his return widow then he has no choice but to sell it.
there is no restocking fee on an unopened item.......

Don't have access to the Market board yet, but Im looking to trade my One X and an iPhone 4 for an S3, or sell them to buy the S3.
sorry been at work. att rep told me 15% restocking fee as did the manager. weather it is opened or not. sorry for placing this in the wrong place. yes this is legit. 15% of 594 $89 I would rather help a fellow here who wants one. then take it back to the store. figure i would sell it here. and not loose ( give att) about 90$.
My nephew did not graduate like he told me he was going to. so no phone for him. he can keep his moto razor flip phone. lol as far as batch, i dont know how do i check?
sorry man this is all true. not gonna return to att store, nephew let me down. paid full price 549$ plus tax.
ok so after reading the receipt... i had 30 days... june 6th was that date... so now i either stick with it or sell it. i was looking forward to a GS3. but maybe this phone will do.
Coming from a evo I must say the build quality on the hox has improved greatly.
The camera is fantastic, even my 7 year old can take some impressive shots.
Rooting/unlocking boot loader is a walk in the park with the AIO tools, Id say if your looking to upgrade anyways keep the hox and rub that phone in your nephews face every chance you get.
i like that. just every day have it sit there and as he does my yard work just use it for like pandora for my out door system... lol put very good use to it. thats funny
I posted in your marketplace thread. I'm interested

Lets get together and buy Erikmm a Blaze.

He's a great dev that's done some superb blind work for us but he needs a phone.
If we can raise enough it would greatly help this community. I would be happy to start the ball rolling with $30.
Update:
It's been decided to send Erik the money directly via PayPal. His address is [email protected]
We can then copy proof of payment to this tread.

@the thread if you guys are donating and want to make sure funds are properly used
have someone get the money together and buy the phone and ship it to me...just so you
guys don't think i will take the money and use it on something else.
Edit: just saying this because most of you guys don't know me personally nor have used my prior rom for sgs4g.
I can do 10 now another 10 next paycheck. But how are we going to do this? The only way I actually think will work is sending erikmm the money and trust him to buy the blaze. Or if he came out with another badass update. And he wouldn't release download link unless donated first.
So I guess we would have to take a poll for who would donate for update download link. After poll we can figure out how much each person. Would have to pitch in for erikmm to collect $580 (that's how much I paid after tax) to buy the blaze. What does everyone think? How about you erikmm?

Erikmm is correct that we should nominate someone to handle it. as to $580, we can probably do better.

granted it's C quality, but what does one really need in a dev phone?
Brand new Galaxy S Blaze 4G is sold at $349 on eBay
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-BOX-Sam...0732617648?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item43b103afb0
It's even cheaper for a used one in great condition, around $240 on Craigslist.
As long as the phone is fully functional so I can test everything then the phone can be used...just make sure it isn't blacklisted so I can fix wifi calling and the apn issue.
I have an s2 for personal use so this phone would be a dev phone
Last time I got a phone donated the users sent me the money bc I had a deal with another user to buy his phone it was all done publicly so the community can see. I say the cheapest/safest way to get it would be ebay because it has some guarantee that if the product doesn't work then you can open a case with PayPal

See that the #1 question. I have PayPal and have no problem doing so, but sure other people do to. Its either gunna have to be someone with the most posts and thanked (which isn't me)
But me personally I would feel most comfretable with erikmm doing it. But if he doesn't want to or if you guys don't trust him why would you trust someone else?
Either way were gunna have to do a tally for who is willing to pitch in and how much. Just don't be shaddy and back out cause that will get us nowhere
+1 $20 trevor7428
(I think would be less confusing if each person can copy name above and add there name under instead of a bunch of +1s everywhere. Would add people above but don't no if there still in)

once we hit that point then i'll buy it and have at it? lol
Router for erikmm?
Erikmm,
Not sure if this helps you, but I have a Netgear WNDR3700 router which I don't need. I could ship to you and you could sell on ebay or something and use the proceeds towards the phone.
Or I could ship to someone else who is willing to list it and sell it and them give you the proceeds.
I think its worth around $70 or so.
I just don't have the time to list it and sell it and do all that stuff... but I cold easily just ship it. Thoughts?

I really like the work erikmm has done for our phone. I dont think anyone else has made an actual working rom with such few issues for our phone. I think getting him a phone so he can help our community would be a huge asset, and im willing to donate also. I dont want to see this phone get left behind, and I do miss flashing different roms like I did with my Vibrant.

Oneplus one invites to share

Hi all my fellow doubleshot users
I received another round of invites from oneplus and have two left that will expire soon
for those unfamiliar with the device or the trouble it is to obtain one have a look here:
http://oneplus.net/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one
as you can see it has the specs to beat nearly any flagship out there yet costs a fraction of the price (even less than a nexus)
to boot it comes with a special variant of cyanogen as the stock ROM
This phone has been praised but just about every tech expert and i will say they are all correct, a fantastic phone that is worth twice as much!
the problem is getting one, you need an invite just to buy
so free of charge i have an invite for you! feel free to let me know why you want one
and note you must be ready to purchase within 24hrs from the time you claim the invite (payments are paypal only so have an account)
you all wont be disappointed, this is by far the best phone i have ever used and trust me i have used a lot!
also you must register for an account at the oneplus website
I would like an invite. My old phone is running like a champ... or it was, it is dying. I was going to hold out for a Nexus 6, but after hearing it will have a 6" screen... Well let's just say I'm not ready to take 6 inches in the pants....
I have received an invite. Thanks for the offer!
I don't know if you have any invite left, but I'm very much interested in buying a 64gb sandstone black!!!
The reson why I want one is simple, my wife keeps using my S3, so I'm planing to give it to her, and buy an oneplus one for myself.
Thank you very much!
Sorry no more right now but when I get more I'll post back

How had I not heard about this phone? Ever since I got my Doubleshot, newer phones really haven't grabbed my attention because it does everything I need and none of the new offerings were really compelling.... until now.
It looks amazing.
