Who's returning their 9gb for a 25gb? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General

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.

+1 ^^^^ I might just give my local store a call to see if they'll waive the restocking fee but I doubt it.

Then you'll be suing every company for every device or memory card that you ever buy.

I'm holding out for the 32gb device anyhow. Regardless of carrier and Samsung bloat, there is still a slot for expandable memory. I understand its frustrating with the percentage of space taken up. Computer companies do the something, just not to that scale.

Took mine back last week. Will pick up the 32 to play with. But still love my HTC One. My only issue was memory so will be happy. Will go black mist this time

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

Well, how about that new laptop with the 320GB hard drive that only has 250GB of free space due to the OS and recovery partition? </rant>
Seriously, I just got a 64GB microSD card from Newegg for $54, so I'm perfectly happy and loving my new S4!

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.
In related news, if you cant beat em sue em....

T-Mobile sent me a G2x without the T-Mobile Branding.

Today, I received my replacement device from T-Mobile, and instead of having it say "T-Mobile" above the display, it says "LG". It's a P-999WD, and has the July 15 baseband.
It's not an issue, but I thought it was pretty weird. Now I have an Optimus 2x ;D

Exact same thing happened to me. Received the new device earlier this month. Thought it was weird but not a problem.
that's pretty sweet!
is the back battery cover black? or the tmobile version with the brownish bronze tint?

Nah, it was a Warranty Exchange, so no battery/cover were included.
Here in Canada we only get the non-branded black/grey ones
No back cover included for me either. Only difference is the "LG" above the display.

Wow. Do you have some sort of issue? You could have politely corrected him. This kind of behavior isn't welcome on XDA (or anywhere, for that matter).
That's what the ones from WIND look like. They have no issues except minor screen bleed.

WOW. They are all o2x phones. The G2x is called that because of branding to T-Mobile. What gives?

They're not exactly the same... They are however VERY similar. I'd say maybe they're more like fraternal twins than identical.
Hmmm... I'm going to pick my replacement up from UPS in the morning. Wonder if I'll get unbranded? Guess I'll post back here once I find out.
On another note, I thank you all for not being idiots like the other Guy.

Well his screenname does say demented so it kinda makes sense.
sheesh....dude got tag teamed!!! lol
but...warranty is tied with the device for a whole year after the phones release right? even thought the phone was not bought from tmobile? (im second owner )
if people keep getting unbranded ones, i might try my luck...if possible.

I actually don't even think they would know that you're not the original owner, unless you tell them. If you do warranty through T-Mobile, you'll have to pay a $20 fee, but if you have Premium Handset Protection, which is $7.99 a month, it's only a $5.00 fee, but it covers physical damage, and theft. Normally, you can't get Premium Handset Protection after 14 days, but they'll offer it to you during your warranty exchange. Also, if you have Premium Handset Protection, they'll give you FREE overnight shipping if you request it before 8pm EST.

First of all he deserved to be tag teamed. He must be one of those little kiddies that mommy and daddy bought a expensive smartphone for. that is the reason for all this crap on xda now because everyone has a smartphone now including the assholes. For some reason they all seem to be gravitating toward the g2x and that is not to say all g2x owners are assholes but I also have the sgs2 and this **** just doesnt seem to go on there.

You don't read the SGS2 forums much do you? haha
There has been all kinds of drama over there. From people being accused of kanging other roms and people getting banned to just general retardedness like that guy. It's bad all over the place. Kind of sad really.
I agree. I think most of it is kids getting on here and thinking they need to make a name for themselves and show how badass they are.
Picked my replacement up today and unfortunately it's still branded. Screen seems to be much better than my previous phone, even though they were both DWs. Oh well.

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

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.

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 have noticed the amount used has gone down a bit but remember it goes by area that your zip code is so it's dependent on the users around you. I live in the middle of nowhere in south texas but my phone is activated with a Dallas/Ft.Worth number so I can get up to maybe 5 or so gigs before I get the warning text. I used to be able to.go to 7 though before so I do think it's gone down a bit. You know you can somewhat bypass it by just keeping ur band set to hspa only. Its bearable for me that way
Froggys go ribbet
show them with your wallet .. OH wait
sprints towers are ****
verizons and higher priced and NO "unlimited"
funny part is on the fine print of the contract you signed it say they have the right to cut people off if they choose too .
but most people dont read the fine print
Their "unlimited" sounds a lot like an internet deal that Verizon offered my Dad. In their case it was "For Life!" (meaning 2 years).
Read this earlier today...figured this was a good post to share on.

^ignorance
first off.. I am not "screaming" about throttling... and I DID read the "****" I signed before I posted something on a public forum ( "started tear works") haha.. society... no wonder this world is doomed...
it says in the contract that they have the right to modify or cancel any customer who they feel is using excessive data on the network...
how is 2040mb excessive when they offer a 3GB data plan.
if we were not in the right... that guy would not have won the case against ATT... granted he only got $850... but think of all the ATT customers..
since ATT put that we can not file a class action lawsuit into there contract... the only option we have is to do it individually.. which only some may do..
but just think if they didn't have the class action lawsuit rule in the contract they would be paying out $850 x the millions of ATT customers (or however many are on an unlimited data plan still) = $$$$$$$$
so I'm sorry CheesyNutz.. I don't like getting f*cked in the @$$ by these major corporations trying to suck the life out of us.
Just posting on a "friendly" forum to help raise awareness, and let other people know they are really snapping down... doesn't matter how much data you use..
If you do "read" then you may want to read up on the case more before thinking you're in store for an instant 850 in your pocket.
Small claims court in California isn't small claims in new york. If you think you really do have a case, read up on how damages are calculated in small claims court in your state, gather your proof, and go file.
Otherwise this means nothing to you.

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:
amazon has them for $79.99. http://wireless.amazon.com/Samsung-...=INDIVIDUAL_NEW&sr=1-1-entd&qid=1355352361679
Best Buy is selling them this Sunday for $50, new or upgrade.

Thanks, definitely gna get my brother one he's jealous of mine. Lol
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)

Its really pointless to find the best price for a phone when u have unlimited plan your just screwing yourself
You take the deals your unlimited goes bye bye
To keep unlimited data you have to pay full retail price on any smart phone

lol already too late for that :/. rooted 20 minutes after buying.
What do you suggest then is the cutoff point for what makes sense and what doesn't? I'm dealing with a thunderbolt with poor battery life and slow response time, but I like having no contract. Any tips on how to analyze this?

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.

Been there done that I also "had" 2 thunderbolts 1 I had 6 remans 1 had 1 reman with the promise they will work 3 trouble tickets and 1.5 months later I slipped into 2 s3 with unlimited data and upgrades left intact.
I spent a butt load of cash to protect them all in all 60 gigs later I'm on top
GET THE FREAKING TOTAL EQUIPMENT COVERAGE $6.99 A MONTH
IT EXTENDS THE FREAKING WARRANTY UNTIL YOU BUY ANOTHER FREAKING PHONE THEN STILL KEEP THE FREAKING WARRANTY
CRYING ON THIS FORUM ABOUT THIS AND THAT PRICELESS
THEN YOU RIDE IT OUT TILL SOMETHING GOES SOUTH THEN PLAY THE GAME trouble tickets, remans, problems, software bugs that won't fix themselves updates that won't ever come cancelled hardware failure
"HARD RESETS DONT NOT FIX HARDWARE FAILURE"
I HATE GOING TO THE CORP STORES BUT SOMETIMES YOU WILL HAVE TOO SO THEY CAN NOTE THE ACCOUNT THE PEOPLE ON THE PHONE CANT SEE WHAT THE PHONE IS DOING
I have rambled on here how to get a different device many times
And I read the same stuff over and over
Someone needs to fix the freaking app so it will find what your looking for

Remember, kids... CAPS LOCK is serious internet business.

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...

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,
Who knows.. lol 1 track listen 45sec in. you hear "Dawn" get excited herself and say "oh my god"
about keeping unlimited data.Booyah!
For your sake i hope our happens on the fourth. If not stay away from the pitchforks.

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?
