Giving away my HTC Fuze

First off I hope this is in the correct section, I figured it was an appropriate place as any. I lurked around the Touch Pro section for a while (in fact xda-developers was the reason I purchased the Fuze in the first place) and have had a great time playing around with custom ROMS and apps for the device.
I went back to an old Nokia device a while ago because I wasn't really using data at all, but now I'm moving to Sprint to get the Evo 4G and this Fuze is still laying around, unused.
It's in great condition, almost perfect I would say, and I'll throw in the charger and whatnot if you would like.
I'd like to give it to someone from this community who needs or can make use of it. Just post a quick reason why you would like it and within a couple days I'll decide who to send it to.
Thanks for making my first experience with an HTC WinMo device so fun!
Well I would like to have your phone, since my TP has an awful ghosting on the screen which makes the screen really hard to read sometimes, but if there are other people that can make better use of it (like ROM developers) they of course have a better reason for getting it than me ^,^
I wouldn't mind to pay you the shipping costs of course, so that your expenses are covered. I'd give my current TP to my girlfriend, she has a crappy Sony Ericsson phone now
Thats a very generous offer. I do not intend of keeping my Fuze much longer personally as I am growing annoyed with microsoft. But i have yet to find any android based phone i like (Aside from the Droid, but i despise Verizon).
Unfortunately, my Fuze has a defective touch screen. My original Fuze never had working wifi, which was then replaced under insurance with a refurbished phone. This phone is great and all, except for the loose keyboard and faulty touch screen.
When i draw a line across the screen with my stylus in notepad, you can see the line curve and go under or above the dead zone, very freaky and annoying. Most likey if you are willing to give it to me, mine would be given to my soon-to-be fiance as she is leaving her host family (au pair) and will have no phone.
Regards
- Mike
(seriously though, i'm sure there are much more deserving people of this sweet phone, but if you are interested, i will pay for shipping and handling)
UPDATE - Ok, Captain Throwback needs it more - my vote is to give it to him ha ha.
Hello!
I don't know if you know me, but I'm Captain_Throwback, a Mod here, and also a Raphael chef. I've been having issues with my Fuze of late, and fortunately, since I have insurance on my device, I was able (just yesterday) to get a Tilt 2 as a replacement for my device. Unfortunately, that means I can longer produce Raphael ROMs for my loyal ROM users, and I'd really hate to stop doing that - it's been quite a process getting my Kitchen together (3 times now), and putting together ROMs that are stable and to my liking. The insurance company claims "right of salvage" on any replaced devices, so unless I want to pay full retail for the Tilt 2, I have to return my Fuze to them. So, it was suggested that I post in this thread for a shot at having another Fuze, so that I can continue cooking for this great community, and update my ROM which is over a month old, at this point.
I have a few dollars in my Paypal account, so I wouldn't mind covering shipping costs, and throwing a few extra dollars in there for it as well, since I understand the device isn't free. But I'm sure (as the above poster noted) there's someone who needs it more than me.
I'm sorry to hear that you never got the full potential out of your Fuze (perhaps you should've flashed my ROM on it ), but I'm sure someone here will give it a good home, and make sure that it gets used well. Happy choosing!
I always want to have htc touch pro but its too expensive to me on my country But i have Blue Angel Decision is yours....
Sorry for my English...
Over the weekend my touch screen just completely stopped working and i have not idea why, i contacted at&t for insurance replacement but they arent helping me at all, since i bought it from newegg with a service plan through at&t theres some confusion about the insurance and i think i got really screwed. long story short they wont help me unless i renew my 2 year agreement and newegg cant do anything either. im inclinded to fix it myself but im pretty broke with other expenses so im completely phoneless until i can figure something out. ive already flashed back to the stock rom and checked the cable to the lcd and that seems to be whats wrong but to get a new cable id have to order it from hong kong and that seems like the least desirable option, going 4 weeks with no phone would be terrible for me. ive got other stuff on my plate but i dont want this to turn into a total sob story, if theres any way i can get some help i would be ecstatic. id throw whatever money ive got towards it as well
Hello,
Giving away a touch pro? How kind =]. Well I am searching another Touch Pro, I want to give it as a present. the Touch Pro's here are barely available, Since they are outstores already. I would really like to give my friend a touch pro for her birthday, I guess that would be so cool for her =]. Also this could be a good present since I have a crush on her :$. Im a big fan of the Touch Pro, and I really convinced people around me that they should get one too. They really like the device. I could make a "fake" message that my Touch Pro just broke, but no. I am just being honost, I hope you will give the Touch Pro to whoever deserves it.
Good luck,
Armazia

Hmm but then again why would anyone with a perfectly working phone reply to this thread? It's quite obvious that only people with malfunctioning phones will reply xD
If it ain't broken, there's no need to fix it ^^

Thats right.. But some say its suddenly , But yea, its your thread
i'd like to make a suggestion.
while Captin_Throwback is hard to ignore on this (rom maker and all) i would like to suggest donating your fuze to the hard workers developing android on our devices. i'm sure they would like to have another for when nand testing starts and whatnot.
just a thought.

Good One, you can treat my response as non-existent, because either the Captain or the XDAndroid Team could make far better use out of it than me ^^
my phone isn't broken, so send it to me!
Mine isn't broken, it just sucks. You should send it to me. I can sell it and my phone on ebay and have enough money to get a phone that doesn't suck.
Well thanks for all the interest, I think I'm going to send it to Captain Throwback.

Brand New G2x for sale

Mods please close this thread...
Sorry was supposed to be in "Market Place"
Got a Brand New G2x for sale.
Im not gonna go and list the specs for this phone because chances are, if your looking at this post, you already know how much of a beast it is.
I bought this phone brand new from TMO the Saturday before Mothers Day.
Brand New Tmobile G2x for sale... Still in box
Thought my wife (cough..me ) would love it... but long story short I got her the Sidekick instead.
This phone is brand new... It was only used for about 10 minutes from when I setup her Account Info. I have everything that came in the original box as well as the original box. Its never been rooted or had a custom recovery flashed. Original screen protector is still on the cell.
Id prefer to sell this to someone in or close to NYC but am flexible.
Depending on the offer, I might accept a trade and cash
If interested please email: louiebove @ gmail[dot]com
If you'd like photos, let me know and I can take some

what did you pay for it?

[Q] Has anyone had this problem before?

You know.. I'm sick and tired of these loops I'm put through, I'm transferred to the wrong company by AT&T where I had been at least talking to an English fluent speaking woman, who understood everything that I said... yet she transfers me to Premier when I said I placed my claim through Asurion....
Anyways... has anyone ever had a package confirmed to be delivered by FedEx yet there is no package?
I am having this problem now... I have had several mail packages sent to my house and had not had any of them stolen... is it possible that this is the first one? Which happens to be my 200$ replacement phone?
I am just at a loss guys, I am getting no help and I can't just lose $200 I mean, it is possible but please God help me I am a poor man. I'm still in College, I don't have the money or a job to easily get a phone like this...
I sent my brand new phone in with a cracked screen for a possible refurb (new outer skin same old board inside) without a problem... I get my first replacement here no problem for $109, next is bumped to $199 ok... I'll deal with that I really like this phone...
Well no phone... and I am expecting a $250 some dollar bill from AT&T next month
Great... Merry Christmas
I called FedEx to confirm that they had in fact delivered the phone but I wasn't there to receive the follow up conversation, I was using my mothers phone... she didn't say much she said "Sorry Call AT&T" I don't know what that means... I just can't get my mind off this...
What are my options, do they insure packages... or did I just lose $200?
Most likely, you got screwed. AT&T is more likely to assume that you actually have the device, but are claiming to not have it to make money off of it.
Most you can do is cancel your service from AT&T, and the least is try and try and try to talk to someone at AT&T to get a new phone.
Like you said, you pretty much wasted $200...
I think you really lost..
Hey Guys! Great news...
I finally got to Asurion, it took about 4 different people to transfer me to a resolutions department...
They are sending out another one, long as it is in the same condition as the previous one that they had sent, I am happy. by previous I mean the first one that I had actually received.
I told them to terminate the other phone so the bastards can't use it. I only wish I could have done the same to my original second Infuse stolen on Campus.
Looks like I didn't lose $200.00 bucks, for a poor man this a great day

[Q] Shady way to replace bricked device?

I recently bricked my Asus infinity tf700 and after many hours of figuring out if its currently possible to fix it I have still not found a possible way around the particular error I am getting. After I did a RMA to Asus they informed me that it is out of warranty and I am currently waiting for my tablet to return.
The question I have is kind of a shady one and not at all honest, and probably illegal. Would it be possible to walk into a retailer like bestbuy and purchase a new infinity tablet with cash, take that tablet home, put the bricked tablet in the box, and return that to the store either saying the tablet was dead when I bought it or that I did not want it anymore for some reason. Very bad I know, but would something like this work? This is all just theoretically speaking of course and I honestly could not bring myself to do something like this.
XDA is not in the business of helping people rip of businesses.

sold out everywhere?

Why is the tablet sold out every where all of a sudden? I am going crazy waiting for my HTC 10 so I decide today after looking for probably 3 months that I am going to pull the trigger and buy the shield tablet to have while waiting for my phone, and look now they all sold out? Is this just my bad luck? While searching for one to buy I am also seeing a lot of comments about the recall.... does this have something to do with it? As a side note if anyone knows where I can order one right away for same price as Nvidia let me know. Nvidia said they would be having them again in a couple days so i am not really willing to pay too much more.
is it really needed to create another thread? You asked the same thing some days ago already. It would - apart from that - be really handy to know where you are living, as the availability may differ between countries.

No I didnt ask the same thing... I only decided to buy the thing today so that is not possible... previously I had asked for input on the pricing and if anyone knew of any deals. This is a question that stemmed from my decision to actually go ahead and purchase the device and finding out that they were sold out everywhere. My question being if there was a reason for this and the possibility of it being because of recalled units.
thanks so much for your reply even though it is completely useless and displays no intelligence... Its always entertaining to see people who take the time to reply to a question to just make a comment rather than answering the question.... To answer your question though sir, I am in the US... just as it states right next to my user name and in my profile. :laugh: :good:
