I had sprint for like a three months and they gave me a free upgrade randomly.Its been six months since and in just about to use it for the 3D. Never found out why they gave me it, didn't really ask questions.

I am going to use my upgrade for the 2nd phone. They said even though my first phone is technically the one that is supposed to get the upgrade, I can just transfer it to the 2nd line
Alot of these guys know how to work the system.......

Yea I know you can use some one elses upgrade, but im jus sayin im not the only one without a real upgrade on my line right. Everybody should have to wait til next year right, without a workaround?

No they're all probably calling in and having their upgrades reset. People do it all the time....I've seen it with my own eyes.

It's not always so easy. When my wife had the crappy samsung moment, it took me sending in that phone 5 times for a warranty replacement and them wanting to give me an even crappier phone. BBB did the trick

I'm eligible for a $75 discount, but not a $75 upgrade AFAIK.
Regardless, I'm not ready to move to the 3D until a few good devs go and the device is proven in the wild. They're really banking on the bleeding edge and the gimmick crowd on this one. I'm sure there will be something even better closer to when we're all due for a full upgrade next year.
Yea im not upgradin either, especially with these sense 2.1/3.0 roms comin out, really no reason. By next year though im thinking our evos wont be able to handle the roms, so I might upgrade to something new.

There are all sorts of info ou there, saying different things as to the release date of the Galaxy Nexus (Nexus Prime woulda been better!) on T-Mobile's Networks, I haven't had the time to research it as much as I'm sure some of you have, can someone confirm a date for Nexus Prime date on T-Mobile?
I'm hoping before Black Friday, so I can get it on Black Friday at Best BUy
Otherwise it may be a little bit till i get the Galaxy Nexus it is hard for my mom to get time off work enough to get me there and buy it!
Anyways thanks in advance.... I looked thru this forum couldn't find the answer... Am I dumb?
sry if this is somewhere already
Nobody really knows
So there all just speculation?

Tell your mom you want her to switch you to Verizon.
No one knows. Thats why theres like 10000 threads about it.
When it comes down to it you can always import and use ur T-mo SIM. If I had to bet I'd say you could buy it unlocked in the USA soon enough as well. Doubt T-mo will pick it up subsidized but we'll see.

It means if somehow the unlocked version doesn't get launched here right away and you really want it, you can import one from Europe (paying extra) and put your T-mobile SIM card in it. It'll be expensive and I wouldn't recommend it if you can wait.

Doubts Verizon will see this before T-Mobile? Was that seriously just uttered? T-Mobile hasn't even announced this phone on their network, much less thought about a release date for it. Yes, it's on Samsung's site as it being available for T-Mobile, but at least Verizon has announced officially that it will have the phone and before the end of the year. T-Mobile ... not so much.
a lot of tail some diseases lots of enemies and maybe child support and divorce! but as for the new nexus...I believe VZW is the only us carrier getting one this year. if u want it on another then its over 700 for the small size 16 or possibly att tmo next year.

You can't really blame the price on Samsung. It seems high because the US dollar has lost so much in value. The actual cost in other currencies is basically the same as previous Nexus phones when you factor in VAT.
I think the GSM/HSPA version will be sold unlocked at launch in the US too. It is a phone for developers so they will want to make sure developers can get it.
OT: greatest thing about google+, I can easily mute thread that aren't useful (like my post).
I bout an app, spb shell 3d, on my arc. Now a year later i get a message for the first time saying it cant find license. I thought, OK, ill just reinstall.....no.....it wants me to send 15$ again. I went and looked and on June 9 2012 google cancelled the order. This is a year later! What's going on. How do i get it back or the 15$ back to buy again.
Thanks guys and girls

Definitely better than many galaxy nexus I'm on eco mode as well I'm getting about three hours of on screen time per charge. With it being this fast,I'm not complaining.
For what its worth of you look at the battery stats it looks like android os is killing alot of battery which is an ice cream sandwich bug. Dont know if it actually does kill as much as it states but. it could indicate something isnt allowing the phone to sleep properly. Hoping an os update will squeeze some more juicr outta this thing also hopng itll kill the overheating issue but well see

Sup people, Im Brian D, just got this phone Wednesday. Came from a HTC Evo4G that was way overdue for upgrade. I absolutely love this phone so far. As stated, the only thing that's not excellent, is the camera, which is decent...but far from awesome.
As far as speed, the phone seems like it knows what I'm gonna do before I even do it...it's so fast it's just crazy. I rooted on the first day, tweeked it a lil bit and did a quadrant test just out of curiosity and got this 7736...mind BLOWN! That is unreal, especially when the max I ever got outta my Evo was around 1200.
Also, my battery life has been excellent so far. Don't know what some of you guys are having issues with. On Eco-mode, and with moderate use aka not TRYING to burn my battery, here is where I am now...with battery left to spare. Overall, I'm loving this phone. It was between the Samsung GS3 and this phone for my upgrade and went with this because of future potential. I'm sure the bootloader will be unlocked soon...too many smart people out there are already trying to make it happen. And once it is unlocked...imagine the possibilities with this monsterous piece of hardware!!

Hey guys,
I am on the Sprint Employee plan (the wireless advantage club) and I want to get this phone and have an upgrade but it won't let me purchase. They say my account isn't allowed to get it yet. But I see that you guys are actual employees and have it. Did you buy it unlocked or something? Thanks.
I'm Tony from Ohio. I've been a lurker here for a few years now. This is only my second Android smartphone and I absolutely love it. Can't wait to see the bootloader unlocked and a big thanks to everyone working towards it!
To the sprint employees. Maybe yall can answer. Is sprint blocking Google wallet or is wallet not going to be compatible with LGOG

To be honest that means somebody on your plan has an outstanding balance or balance that needs to be paid, I had prob 10 people at one point and no one paid there bills on time , some people didn't understand how the program worked and way over spent it was just a nightmare, so now its me and the wife that's it. I got mine through my outside account and then swapped it on to my line NP as I wasn't able to upgrade but it says it is available through swac accounts. Did the person that your under order it for you or send you the swac link to shop or are you just trying to upgrade on sprint.com ?

Hm, well I do have an outstanding balance for my monthly bill due on the 27th that I was going to pay this weekend. I found out today that the Employee I'm under has to order it for me so he's going to check soon. I have an upgrade, so if I pay my bill will he be able to order it for me? Some people say employees can't get it yet.
My whole story: Ordered HTC Evo 4G LTE on Nov 2. Got it a week after (hit by Sandy :/). Sense is slow and buggy and I love the hardware, hating the software. But since I still was in 14 days and I really really wanted this phone, decided to cancel. Waiting for my return kit for this phone but I need a phone to hold me over when that comes since no one would let me order the Optimus G. So basically, I have the EVO now, and I'm waiting till the G is available. I'll be returning this EVO by Thanksgiving so I really wanted the G by then. If not, I may be phoneless for a couple days since I have no previous Sprint phone as this is my first time with them. Ah well.
I appreciate the insight.
Yea even tho its a lil cheaper advantage lines become a pain in the butt , its easier and almost as cheap to just send friends a link to the referral program

Well,
It's been a good run guys. My personal T989 broke long ago beyond repair, and now my dev unit has a cracked screen which no longer functions and they want, with their "Premium Handset Protection" that I've paid them $8 for every month since December 2011, a $150 deducible to fix it.
I'm up for my $50 down upgrade which will cost me $17/month for a few months but my bill will go down $20 because of the upgrade, and I'm going the Nexus route from now on (holding off until after Google IO in case they announce something). I hope that you all enjoy your T989's, it's a really great device. Maybe I'll see some of you in the future.
Thanks for the good times, the minibaths, the laughs, and the dev builds.
Goodbye!

@OP Glad you are getting a new device. Sorry about the circumstances that precipitated it though. Hopefully you will have as much fun in your new section as you have had here.
Good luck in the future and please feel free to stop in and troubleshoot in your old stomping grounds when you can.
