No Samsung/AT&T branding

After having some issues with my phone and trying to trouble shoot, I was looking at a couple of my friends skyrockets. They all have the embossed at&t and Samsung logos on the front... mine doesn't. Could mine be a refurb? It was purchased at the store...

A corporate one in Vegas.
Is there any way I can tell if this has been refurb'd? I know on my old epic I could somehow

Was that phone supposed to be brand new? Sounds like someone broke the screen, sent it in, and you got it as a refurb.

What do you mean by "A corporate one in Vegas" ? Was it actually a AT&T store .. BestBuy .. Walmart .. Target .. RadioShack !!!
If its NOT an official AT&T Dealer .. then YES, I would have to say you got SCAMMED.

If you don't mind rooting your phone, and doing a little bit of reading. Should save you like $40.

One more thing is this phone worth it? Becuz I was gunna get the galaxy nexus until it got banned?
Sent from my at100 using Tapatalk 2
I would totally sell you mine in mint condition, s-off, rooted and running my favorite lightningfast undeadk9 Rubix Rom... BUT I was planning to replace it with a banned Galaxy Nexus as well...
F- Apple. They were scared of the 349.00 price tag for an unlocked premium no-contract Android world phone biting into their marketshare.
I'm just so confused idk what phone to get anymore haha
Sent from my at100 using Tapatalk 2
I would wait. Simple as that. If you want a QWERTY phone, this is a nice one. But we have a few roms and its a good. We have what we need, and nothing we don't. If you a flashaholic, buy a GNEX off NewEgg. Or buy.com. **** Apple, they can't stop you from getting a nice phone.

They should. Apple just blocked the sales of ones from Google, you should be able too. Worse comes to worse, you can't check out. Try all your trusted sites. Newegg, Buy.Com, O.Co, Amazon, Ebay. Cowboom. Etc, etc.
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using Tapatalk 2
How much are you looking to spend? I'd like $250 for it, but open to a reasonable offer. Mine is S-OFF and rooted running the latest Miktouch. The phone is only three weeks old and has a screen protector from day one, and I'd even include my 16GB sdcard if you wanted it. PM me if you're interested.
Still available GNEX:

Bestest Place to buy Devices?

I have seen people mention a site called swappa. Is this the best one. I have been looking for a tablet and don't trust huge sites like eBay. Is swappa a good choice? Asking fellow users.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I have used them to buy. They get my vote.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Read into them. Honestly it'd be my first choice if I'm buying outright. Read all their tos and whatnot. As far as I know only clean esn's are on there. I have read into it and it definitely is a lot better of an option than eBay in my opinion

Bestest?

the correct english is " most bestest" dumbass
I bought and sold on swappa. But be cautious of sketchyness. My first one I bought turned out to be a scam and my money ended up I'm China. The whole thing was so sketchy. But PayPal is awesome and got my money back in a couple of days.

I vote swappa. Simple as hell to use.

Here on the US west coast, Craigslist is king for used phones.
For safe transactions and reduced prices, you can check out the "outlet" from the company. A lot of companies sell the slightly used tablets and refurbs on their outlet's website.

actually what i always do is, shop around on the site and see whats available. then i call them prior to me checking out to confirm everything and they usually give anywhere from a 10-15% discount.
KEEP IN MIND:
i have a business account
i have 4 lines under my name. All 4 are smart phones
and i get 21% discount on all accessories because of the company i work for.

can someone order the poetic bumper case for me?

i messaged poetic on amazon, but they said they will not be shipping to canada
can someone buy it for me and then ship it to me later on?
of course ill pay you though

It will open to other banks in just like 3 weeks. Nothing to be too bothered by.
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
Just got my acceptance email. Time to play around with Samsung Pay and see if it's good enough to not root.
yeah sucks i got my acceptance email but cant register any card as i don't have any of those two banks.
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
Just got my email invitation and added the cards. Will try later
I activated it and tried it on my machine at my work. Its pretty cool how it works but not sure if it worth not rooting for. Ad free and xposed seem to be screaming my name. Im getting the itch to make the leap.
How reliable is mst?
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
Gas station attendant wouldn't let me use it. Said his machine wasn't equipped for it. I argued with him but let it go because there was a line. It didn't work because he didn't activate the damn swipe yet.
Nonetheless I tried it at Safeway later and it worked beautifully

They also need to add u to their Beta Testing Program on their end I believe....I only say this because I had actually downloaded the APK online prior to signing up as a tester and it wouldn't allow me to register my account. Sorry bud....
