Promo for G Pad 7.0 - AT&T LG G3

Just as an FYI. I got my G3 the day it came out and I was able to talk the AT&T store near my office to honor the .99 cent promotional deal for the G Pad 7.0.
Essentially the deal is buy any new LG phone (G2, G3 or Flex) and you get a G Pad 7.0 LTE for .99 cents. You will need to add it as a line on your plan, but that's just $10 a month for me and I got a nice LTE tablet.
YMMV.
Edit: adding link to promo post
http://blogs.att.net/consumerblog/story/a7795961

Interesting. I was thinking about this promo and my biggest concern was that I had already bought the G3. Also I bought it at best buy. I know best buy does price matching. I'm just trying to get a deal!
No matter what, I can never stay away from android for long.

Bestbuy has a 30 day return policy. If you are under that they should allow you to return it. If not bestbuy should price match for you.

*Devices must be purchased together.

Best buys return policy on cell phones are different. I think it was either 2 days or 2 weeks, as explained to me by the BB rep that I dealt with

I'm an AT&T employee, can confirm this offer is valid.
Details:
LG G Pad 7.0 tablet
Upfront: $1
2 year contract required: Yes
Activation fee: Yes, $40 on next bill
Monthly increase: $10/month for Mobile Share Value plans (shared existing bucket of data), $20-$50/month for old-school nationwide talk plans depending on how much data you want for the tablet.
Regular retail price: $250

I got one. It's cool and all but I want to root it already

Update: I stopped by an at store today to see if they had the folio case for the G3 in stock and the rep walked me over to the LG section. He started telling me about the promo for 50% off of the watch as well as the G Pad. He asked me how long ago I got my phone and I told him not too long ago and he said that I would be able to qualify for the 99 cent promo. He asked me if I had gotten the phone at an att store and I told him the truth. I told him I bought it at best buy. He said he believed I would still qualify but asked his manager. His manager said he would honor the price for me!!! I was able to walk out of the store with the G Pad 7.0 for 99cents plus tax! #winning
I noticed there aren't any forums yet for the 7.0 though. Im itching to root too! Lol

Just bought a LG 3. I got the tablet for 99 cents! Stone cold deal.

I would have done this, but I really don't want to add another $10 a month to my bill...plus I have a great tab..Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 EDITION......but for a buck it's worth that lol

Thanks for the updated info on this! I also posted on the reddit. I was also able to successful root using purpledrake on OSX. I had to change the usb input to ptp from mtp, once I did that everything else worked like a charm and am now rooted!! I also let the guys know in the purpledrake forum to update their compatible device list.

Glad i wasn't the only one willing to take the plunge. I just wish there was something like the G3 TweaksBox available for it already but xposed will just have to do

You can actually install G3 tweaks box and I've found a lot of it works for our gpad. I also installed LG emojis changer and that worked without a hitch. I tried changing the colors of the nav buttons on the bottom didn't work but I was able to change the battery. Center clock, custom carrier. Check out it. I think a lot of the stuff made for the G3 will work on the gpad.

I installed tweaksbox last night as well. Haven't messed with much but more status bar options worked than I thought would so after work I'm going to test some more changes out

I just got mine. I got the G3 on release day but went into AT&T and asked about the promotion and they gave it to me. I paid $1.08 out of pocket.
Also, rooted successfully with Purpledrake.

Thank you. That was exactly where it was.
Glad you found it.
ok so i see you listed the version number, I'm guessing that means you didn't do the newest update =/ I use my phone as my internet connection and updated foxfi because it gave me an error saying i had to update it to use it.
Now i'm stuck with a 2.51Mb limit before i have to restart foxfi, Any work arounds for this? Im not trying to spend $7 for an app thats been free this long. It strikes me as someone getting greedy, And $7 is pretty steep when i can root the phone and tether for free. Just not trying to root my S3 atm.

Its cool. Lol. I wouldn't update because of the limit and felt the same way about the app being free then 7 bucks.I don't mind supporting the devs for their hard work and have many bought paid apps that I have purchased. But this just didn't seem right. But as of yesterday the old version quit working had a pop-up saying it wasn't supported and wouldn't connect. So I guess it got blocked to force you to buy if you want the program.

darn, im wondering if theres a way around it or another app. Because like you i dont mind supporting dev's and i have also bought many apps, but this isn't right its been free for this long this is someone who is just getting greedy and trying to force people into paying them money. The app had over 1million downloads, If that many people use it and he now forces them to pay 7 thats 7 million dollars. I dont blame him i wouldn't mind having 7 million but still i'm not putting in on him being greedy.
Lol you guys are spoiled. The developer has a right to ask for money for his app... People have been using something he has done on his free time for free for a long time... Who knows what is going on in his life but maybe it's reached a point where the money is needed. For what it offers, it is easily worth 7 dollars one time. The only reason i have not bought it yet is because people are reporting it doesnt work on 4.1 anyway, so we'll see.

Well i'll straight up say i'm far from spoiled, I've spent money on apps that i didn't have to just to support the devs. But when you go from "i'm doing this for the people and its free i just made it to help out" to "i'm charging 7 dollars when i've changed nothing" that just a bit greedy to me, I work hard for my money and i'm not about to just throw it at someone because they got greedy. I've done my homework downloaded a widget called hotspot toggle and i tether threw my phone's built in hotspot for free. Easy to use, turns on faster, and i haven't seen any issues with it yet. So i guess good try to the foxfi guy. Hope you guys find the hotspot toggle widget useful

AT&T $100 Trade-in Promotion Starting

I just wanted to post this for all of you considering getting a new phone on AT&T, such as the One, S4, Blackberry, etc. According to what I have read, it looks like AT&T is starting a promotion tomorrow that will give an instant $100 or more credit toward a new phone of your choice when you trade in your old working smart phone, ( 3 years old or less). This may help in the decision making process for many people.

I'm starting to hate AT&T even more. I recently tried to get an early upgrade (60 days away) & was turned down over the phone. It really pissed me off since I've been a long time customer in good standing. Pissed me off so much, I've been considering going to TMO & now they do this to me. Hopefully this last for more than 30 days since they won't budge unless im within 30 days or less.
Can you trade in a rooted and unlocked phone that has been flashed?
I want the S4 pretty badly and I want to trade in my 1 year old HTC One X but I unlocked, rooted and flashed this thing.

You can probably sell the phone for way more on eBay or some other places. It's not worth giving it to att.

No S5 Root yet -- Frustration

Heyy ya'll, I am so frustrated!! I have bought the Verizon S5 with hopes to get it unlocked soon, but nothing is there!! This is so frustrating -- I signed up with verizon and pay $150/month for 6 gigz with all else unlimited, but the root is one thing that I was looking for. It is frustrating because I probably should've gotten myself a Sprint/Tmobile that was unrooted before even release and it is cheaper!! Ugh!!! By the time unlock happens, a new S series will come out!
Thanks for listening to me! I feel better

You bought a phone without root to begin with. I understand your frustrated but if you wanted a phone with root you should of done homework beforehand. if you wanted the S5 specifically with root, then you probably should switch carriers.
I'm not trying to be rude, its just this post really has no meaning. Your frustrations are just like many, but there is no reason to just start a post on it. Be like a lot of people and be patient. if its going to be rooted one day it will, if you really do not want to wait go an by a phone that is already rooted and not one hoping to eventually be rooted/unlocked because the fact it is just may not happen.
Should of got a developer edition phone...

Yet there are others who have switched and love the M8. Each person is different and should make a decision they feel right with. Many folk are happy with the S5, even without root. For others the lack of root is a deal breaker.
I personally love my M8 as much as I did my S3. I didn't go for the S5 because of Knox and the locked bootloader. That's me though and I would not deign to denigrate anyone simply because their priorities are different than my own.

LG G4 AT&T

I just walked out of my local att store. The theme settings are there unlike on Verizon but the usual flood of bloat apps are all there. It's as bad as a go phone. None would let me Uninstall and several are also unable to be disabled such as the stock Twitter app. I looked at the storage setting and a fresh G4 has over 1.2GB of apps installed with only 21GB free space.
Wait for root. And just kick them out.
Root will do it sure, but for now I'm holding off getting it. If the att model gets root that will be enough for me. Having Google play edition m7 and m8 had just spoiled me to much I guess..
Here is hoping for a root very shortly. I am due for an upgrade and it is either the G4 with root 8 wait for the new Nexus phones. Currently nothing else on the market meets my requirements, that could change of course.

Strange you can't disable twitter. I was able to.
I think the only things I couldn't disable were a couple LG apps. Overall, bloat isn't a big deal for me as long as it isn't using resources or draining battery.
Sent from my LG-H810 using XDA Free mobile app
So why did you buy the AT&T version instead of the unlocked version if you hate bloat so much?
I didnt end up getting it, still debating on it. I only tried the demo at the AT%T store, but would think its the same as a retail one. Strange that Twitter gives an error when you select to disable it. Glad thats not the case on a retail model though.
I hate bloat and branding but settled for the ATT version because it was easier to come but and ultimately, more compatible with their network.
Every ATT app can be disabled except for their Address Book and Remote support. Really not that big of a deal.
I do hate that apps like Twitter, Uber, and Amazon get bundled in. I've never used Twitter or Uber and prefer to use Amazon's site.

Amazon is the only one of those I use, but I never understand why they put a different Amazon app preloaded on phones. I disable it and get the one from the play store.
Ordered a black leather one today. Can't wait to get it and root it. If it's half as good as my Nexus 5 that finally died, I'll be happy.

I believe Lollipop only does that on Google devices, which ultimately, is pointless. I was excited for that aspect, too.

The international version supports AT&T's LTE bands (2, 4, 5, 17). You will probably lose VoLTE support though.
It also doesn't support band 30, AT&T's new upcoming band. AT&T version does.
Ultimately, I went for what was readily available to me.

T-Mobile Waiting Lounge

Who here is actually getting the v10 from T-mobile? I am 85% Sure at this point. The phone seems nice, great specs not to mention Removable battery, SD card, IR blaster the three scace now on phones.
Can't forget that sweet deal either from LG: Free 200gb sd card, with free battery and cradle
This is how I see it, if not happy with the v10, will still have the 200gb SD card...but by the look of things, I will be happy....I mean, its the first phone I am considering without a case :highfive:.
Whats your thought?
BTW, here seem to be a snag when trying to order straight from t-mobile, it is not allowing some (not sure if all) to place an order through jump. I message t-mobile rep and this is what I found.
Joselito E: Hi Madina!
Joselito E: We appreciate the time and effort for staying in our queue! Thank you so much!
Joselito E: I feel the excitement there that you want to get your phones upgraded. No worries, I can certainly check the other options for us to be able to process an upgrade.
You: thank you, i thought it was just me but others are having the same issue
Joselito E: Yes, because as of the moment, we are having an System Enhancement for us to get a better way to process an upgrade.
You: Oh ok

I will go to my local tmobile store this friday to pickup my V10. I can't wait!
As soon as it's confirmed bootloader unlocked I'll be all over it.
I think I will jump on demand from the note 5 on friday. Since the new lumias wont be sold on tmobile ill jump to this. Im looking forward to get my hands on this.

Oh nice, I never knew a note 5 user will drop it for the v10 Any specific reason if you dont mind me asking ? I currently have the nexus 6..love that thing, waiting for the price for 64 gb to drop even more to make it my second device.
V10 just seems more daily friendly than the note 5 to me personally.
I've got a few TMo stores in the area, I'll be calling around Friday to see who has it in stock! This should be a nice upgrade from my G3. Now to figure out how Jump works (not Jump on Demand). I've only been with TMo for a little over a year, so I've never gotten around to switching up phones.

I find the removeable battery and sd card more appealing to me personally. I find interesting about the camera capabilities and look forward to try it out. I had the lg g3 before the note so i miss my sd card.

Assuming half of your device is paid off and you have jump 2, you will jump to the v10 without any hassle. If for any reason half of your current device is not paid off, you cannot jump without making that payment in store. Hope that helps

Wow, according to the store locator on tmo's site, there are 10 actual stores within 5 miles of my house.

Ah nice, yeah I'm over the halfway point by about a month so hopefully this will be nice and easy!
I ordered mine online just to guarantee I'll get one in case.. Kinda wish I had just waited until Friday, but oh well. I don't do jump on demand. I usually only upgrade once a year, this will be my first multi-upgrade. I like to own my device and use it to resale later. I can get more money to put towards my new phone that way, or if I need it for immediate bills I can just finance the new one and pay it off a little slower.
Ive been trying on Tmobiles website to use my Jump and upgrade but it wont complete. Even tried the chat with a Rep for a while She told me to try back later. I had the Nexus 6, Cracked the screen Assurant gave me a GS6 as a replacement and I hate the smaller size.. Was Really holding out for the Nexus 6p But doesnt seem that will be on TMobile anytime soon. So Ill just Jump to the V10 and I have another Jump available in Jan in case anything else comes along..
I ordered this morning. It said back ordered and they only had black as the color option. Hopefully we'll have root available. The promo pushed me over. I got to use it a little and wanted it and the promo made me get it.
Just got back from my t-mobile store. I reserved mine for Friday am. I'll be there when the doors open at 10 am. I will be saying good bye to my trusty note 2 that has served me well for a long time. The v10 is the first phone I felt would be a substantial upgrade. I got to mess around with it in the store. Wow.. Hopefully my water damaged core dropping massively abused note 2 will hang in till Friday..

I was not aware it is in store already, nice! I better call around to see if my stores have it. What are your thought on it while using? How is the lag or lack of?
They had one in the store to play with?
I work in a mall and the Tmobile store is just a few steps away. I might need to sneak over there later.
Old faithful note 2 user here! I still love it but waiting 10 minutes to open my gallery is getting a little old (embarrassing too when I whip out the phone to show someone a picture "real quick". Hah not so much.)
The promo kinda pushed me over the edge too. I've been seriously considering the 6p and even sneaked a peek at some blackberry priv info. (hardware keyboard be still my heart!)
Friday might be the day!

Only getting it if it comes in the white/gold color.... Until then I'll keep my Note 5.
Looks like no phone for you then Charlie Brown. T-Mobile only gets the black version.
They had them in the back and brought one out for me. Lag? What lag.. I feel your pain about the gallery. Very irritating on my note 2. The v10 is really impressive. Makes my note feel old school now. And my note is rooted with custom rom. All the good stuff from XDA-Developers. So its still a very relevant phone. The v10 is a whole nother level..

Sweet, I am glad to know this. I know the lg 3 (my only lg experience) had stutter issues and by the time i left the device 6 months later, the issue was still present but was fixed 7 months into the release. Left a bit of a sour taste in my mouth ya know? I am actually about to go to my tmobile store, they got a demo in store they can bring out for me I ...am...psych!
