Yeah I rather sell my Nexus 5 and pocket the money from the difference .
I'm in a reasonable position where I bought a Nexus 5 outright back in November because my GS3 had been dropped one too many times and acts very flakily. It probably only stays on for 5 minutes at a time so I registered and was happy to see the GS3 on the accepted phone list.
It's just going to sit in a drawer anyway so if I get the chance to smash it and get a new phone for a dollar then I'll take it. I doubt I'll make the list though.
holy **** lol, i'm definitely down for this, as a person who regrettably bought the LG G2, I'm game for smashing it if I can get a new phone for $1 lol

You could sell it then buy the OnePlus and have money left over lmao.
lol, i just want to destroy that phone, not like i can really switch to the oneplus anyway until after i paid off more of my note 3 through sprints easy pay thing so that i can do my equipment swap since apparently you can't use previously owned equipment after you get the installment crap on the device
yeah its only a $300 phone.. when my One can sell for $400+
While I did apply for the competition, I somehow am hoping I will not win
If you're not willing to smash you should not sign up. They're only picking 100 people.

And you have to own a "flagship" device meaning one of only a small number listed at their site, not just any smartphone which kinda sucks but it's there game I suppose.

So a Galaxy Nexus does not qualify? Shame.
Seeing as I'd only get around 250 for my nexus 5 if I went the eBay & craigslist route, I'd rather not go through the trouble and just smash it for the one+1. I hour I get picked. If not then I'll have to go the long route and maybe get the 64 gig one. Either way in getting this phone! Lol

Well, it's a marketing gag, nothing more. They want to show that ppl are ready to smash flagships for their phone. There is no pride to be gained if everybody would smash their historic phones for it :laugh:.
On the other hand, some of the qualifying models really bring more on swappa than the price of that 16GB OnePlus One. The whole campaign has a touch of decadence that I don't like...
I think I will just keep my HTC One M7 as a backup and add the OnePlus One 64GB to my collection.

I already did... I ust thought that link you sent was like a special advancement or something.
How much would I get for Ipone 3G?
Wonder if I could get enough to help me buy a oneplus1 ? Think I'll google it Wow, I looked close to nothing What a waste.
So I recent cracked my Nexus 5 and went to Sprint and T-Mobile to get a new one. (Looking to buy it out right to avoid waiting for a new one.) I was told at 2 sprint stores and 1 T-Mobile store that Google has stopped production on the phones and they are out of stock before finding what I was looking for at the last T-Mobile store. The last guy also told me they won't be getting anymore stock. So I'm imagining that the N6 is coming and coming real soon if they've stopped production in the N5. I know it usually comes around Oct-Nov but hopefully we get it sooner before later.
You really believe what people at T-Mobile/Sprint said?
Production of the Nexus 5 hasn't stopped and can still be purchased thru google.
You should of slapped them in the face for saying such idiotic things lol

They have support reps for their hardware.
As far as the rep being "hush hush" about the N6 It's probably because the rep didn't say anything about it. Honestly, those guys don't know anything other than what the public knows about upcoming devices.

There's really no secrets lol. I think the N6 is that posters belief as to the reason why it is not being produced anymore. There's really no secrets about the new nexus, it comes every year at about the same time. Everyone starts speculating in february but every year it gets released at the same time

Like someone else said Google does have rep for their hardware which is who you call when you need support for your device you purchased from the play store.
I would think that a T-Mobile rep would have a good idea of their inventory. Just because Google has some for sell doesn't necessarily mean they are still making them, you see there is this thing called back stock. I'm not saying that the T-Mobile/Sprint reps are right but to hear it from 4 different reps at 4 different stores from 2 different carriers leads me to think maybe, just maybe.

The Tmobile stores around me (4 of them) still have the phone on display and in stock and on their site. Maybe you had someone who is misinformed or maybe they didn't get stock and it wasn't communicated properly.

There is a Redditch thread confirming what I was told and there are now rumors of Google announcing the Nexus 6(?) In about 2 1/2 weeks. Maybe I was and I'm not saying that I wasn't but I managed to find a Nexus at a store which says back stock to me.

It could also simply mean they are not replacing stock in certain countries. You would have to be in contact with LG contracted factories in China to know if they are still making them or not, I doubt T-Mobile, Sprint, or Google reps have these contacts.
You know what! You're absolutely right. Why would they want to keep the people selling and supporting their device if they are going to be selling their product anymore... That wouldn't make any sense.
They probably want to push certain markets to get their new products, but that is not going to work for all markets. Picking up a brand new N5 in China or Hongkong is very easy right now. They are all over the place. I would imagine places with issues would be North America, Western Europe, and Aus/NZ. If you put two and two together, they want rich countries to purchase their new device but at the same time understand most of the worlds markets will not go for the new device because of funds.
They can make more money by pushing the N6 on the US, than by continuing to stock the N5. The opposite is true in other places. Ending the N5 will mean they lose money.

Carries in the states make almost no money on phone sales. They get their money from subscribers. They could care less what phone you are using.
I think that there is a very good chance neither Sprint or T-mobile are still offering the Nexus 5 (aside from in-store stock still available), but Google Play has all models and sizes in-stock at the moment. I don't think the phone has been killed just yet. I certainly hope the Nexus X is only a few weeks off, but I don't believe it yet.
I'm a rep at sprint that phone went end of life like the day of the iPhone 6 launch I was so mad that they did that I sell the nexus 5 a lot
Well I recently bought the Note 5 and decided I wanted to go back to the Iphone. Ive tried selling it but had not received any good offers. Then I decided to just trade it into Tmobile and their trade in value for it is $401 dollars. I got more than that for a year old Iphone 6 Plus. I won't be buying Samsung again. And don't get me started on Samsung Pay, why announce Chase as a partner and not have them ready for launch. BofA wants 12 bucks a month for an account with them and US Bank wants 6. I'm not paying a bank for the pleasure of holding my money.

Nobody is applauding you. In fact it is the opposite and calling you an idiot for your unnecessary waste of thread space. Nobody really cares that you want to go back to the iPhone because people buy phones first for its personal use and not necessarily its resale value 2 years from now.
Really, most Note 5 owners SHOULD be upset. The phone has not been out 2 months and retail prices have dropped several hundred dollars due to weak sales - international models especially.
Someone states their opinion and everyone jumps to personal attacks.. Nice. I'm happy to see the maturity in the forums.

I love love love my Note 5... Don't care about the non removal battery, don't care about SD cards... I do however miss my IR blaster and as far as selling your phone try https://swappa.com/
After using package disable pro and disabling junk. This is simply the best note I've owned since the note 2. Battery life is stellar and the note 5 tw is insanely fast.

Sure, but when Samsung decides to drastically cut the price of the unlocked models, that drives down resale value for all versions. Take a look at Swappa or ebay - you've already lost 300$~ in the device your holding. Maybe not a huge deal to most, but personally, I was a little upset when I looked into selling my Note5 to swap over to a Nexus 6p.

Any way, Best Buy is sometimes known to throw a page up with an inflated price until they get the official price for it. I'm hoping that's the case this time too. Especially since Sprint doesn't even have a page for this phone that I can find let alone a price.
Otherwise, $900 is way too much for this phone and I won't be getting it. Even $800 is a bit much.

Yeah I think they did this with the LG G5 too before that was released earlier this year. Also, Sprint is going to be doing a promotion where you can trade in any smartphone with mopre than 10$ in trade in value for 200$ in credit, although that might only be for if you get the phone in an easy pay or lease option and not a full buyout thing.
I am waiting on T-Mobile for their page to go live for pre-order. If the price is that same as on the other carriers, I will have to stick with my V10 or try out the Axon 7 til the price drops below $650.
Also, if the carrier doesn't offer the B&O headphones ... I will have to pass.

It is already confirmed that LG is offering pre-orders in the US a pair of the H3's. As far as I can tell, they haven't really excluded any major carriers on the offer. Not sure if those who don't pre-order will get them or not. I assume "quantities are limited". So you either have to bite the bullet and get in on the pre-order if the headphones are important to you or wait for the price to drop and forgo them if price is more important. Hopefully the price won't be so bad though. I have heard Tmo pre-orders could open on the 12th (already passed though), 14th, 17th or 20th.

Given QA/QC problems of the past for LG, and the MSRP...I don't think they plan on worrying about selling many.

Well, we don't have an actual MSRP from any other carrier yet besides AT&T. There's still a slight chance that the other carriers could undercut AT&T. Hopefully. The only place I hear about QA/QC problems with LG is in hardcore Android forums and it only really seems to be a few very vocal people. Certainly, I'll keep my eyes open but I'm willing to ride the odds in favor of no issues. But if Sprint can't put the phone in with the rest of their phones when they have the iPhone plastered everywhere on their site, they'll never sell it then wonder why. Then again, having met the Sprint CEO in the very bar I'm sitting in right now, I'm not surprised. Doesn't seem any carrier is really trying all that hard though. AT&T has their demo model off in another corner away from the other LG phones in the stores I visited. T-Mobile has it listed on their site with the other LG phones but that's about all of the exposure it gets from them at the moment. The reps are definitely psyched for this phone though.

Actually, the Best Buy site now shows 24 months for $30 which is $720. It also shows free BO headphones and a $200 BB gift card for any qualifying, working, non screen damaged phone.
So my speakers have blown in my pixel and I contacted Google to get a replacement. Since I didn't buy it from the Google store they won't over night me a new phone, and said I have to return my phone before they will send me my replacement. This means I'll be without a device for up two weeks, depending on how the holidays effect things. My question is this, has anyone started receiving updated pixels yet? I don't want to send in my device that has been unlocked just to have it replaced by a device that I won't be able to unlock. Any info would be greatly appreciated

Isn't there a Verizon store near you? Where do you live? You can also have them cross ship you, meaning you pay for the new one and they credit you when they receive it back. Have them bill the cross ship to your account if you don't have available credit or cash. Come on man, there is more than one way to do this. Use your ingenuity.

Not sure why you are saying "if ever" implying there's a chance they might not ever ship with the 7.1.1 update which is not true at all. They 100% will eventually ship with it.. they didn't make a bunch of pixels and are never going to produce them again. I bet mid January we start to see them shipping with it

I asked the Google rep if that was an option and he said no! I had to have the Google store version to be shipped over night. no pay now we credit later given.

This whole thread makes no sense at all. If you have a Verizon phone why the heck would you call Google? Call Verizon and get it replaced. You are missing an important part of this in your explanation of the issue. As it stands no one can help you.

It sounds very weird. But then again, Apple will exchange warranty phones even if you buy from the carriers.

Just curious why you thought so, especially when Google is trying to be a hardware company now.

The operative word is, "trying" to be a hardware company. Apple already is. For many years and with revenue to match. Perhaps when Google makes as much money on the Pixel as Apple does on their iPhone brand then things will change. Also, there is only one device that runs IOS and many multiples that run Android. If you want Google to only allow Android on their own devices then I think you might be closer to what you are asking for.
As for your point about Verizon, have you called them for the replacement? That's your next step.

I'm wondering if you're responding to the wrong person. I'm not the one returning anything.... this time. That's OK. We're good.
To answer your last paragraph, yes, I've done plenty of returns with Verizon. Lol. I have over 40 lines with Big Red since 18 years ago. They treat me very well as far as returns and customer service in general. It's usually "no question asked" kind of thing.

The speaker distortion issue is a software problem and has been resolved with at least one rom. Are you sure the speaker is blown?
