I tried looking up the answer to my question all over the place but I can't seem to find the answer. PS Store in US for the Xperia Play ? It it available? If it isn't, is there a way to get it to work? Thanks.
The PS Store is not officially available in NA. However, I've read some people downloaded the UK .apk and used Euro PSN accounts to log in.
However, I don't know whether they were able to buy any content.
Sony, in its infinite wisdom, decided they dont want to take money from americans, you know because we suck?!?

Thanks for the reply. Yeah that just sucks. Looks like I'll have to get my workaround...
This game looks pretty good and is on sale for 25 cents today. However it does not show up in the play store under the sale tab, nor if I search for it. Could anybody help me out before this sale is over? Is there anyway to do this without buying chainfire pro?
Thanks in advance.
I'd love to know how as well. I'm on the Verizon S3 and I've tried everything from modded play store APKs to changing the default.prop file to nexus 7/google and nothing seems to work. I want to buy this game nowwww ><.
Hey guys, I just noticed in THIS thread that Best Buy has an offer going on where if you buy an AT&T or Sprint LGOG you should get a free headset with it.
From what it sounds like, it is a good headset.
I don't know when they started this or how long it will last, but it was confirmed still going on as of yesterday (1/5/2013).
If you bought an OG from Best Buy and didn't get a headset, you should be able to go in with your receipt and ask for the headset (others in the thread have been able to).
I have not been able to get mine yet, but my fingers are crossed.
Got mine today.
It didn't seem like well known information so I wanted to post it here, sorry if this is frowned upon.
HERE is the link to the offer from Best Buy.
Edit..............
You have to be within the 30 days that you purchased your phone.
Also, it is an online promotion, but they can match it in the store.
Just show them the link, the will pull it up.
Have them Google "best buy free headset with optimus g".
Do not know when they started this but I just hit my 30 days with this phone so I doubt I can take advantage of this deal

Another user said they called BB and they said the purchase does have to be within the last 30 days.
Just went to BB and got my free headset (was within the 30-day window). Had to wait over 45min because they couldn't bring this deal up on their own internal website and showing them the site on my phone wasn't good enough. I used their own computer to go to XDA, hit the link provided by bleached45, and showed them the deal was legit.
Well worth the wait. Thanks for posting this deal bleached45! :good:
I got the free headset with my OG when I picked it up for $99 at BB. They miss labeled the price, as it was supposed to be $199 with free headset, but since I caught it they gave me the deal anyways.
The headset I got was a wrap around neck style with ear buds. It was a neat concept, but the audio quality was only good for phone calls. It was horrible for music, which I was hoping to use it for since it was more like Bluetooth ear buds than a normal headset.

Very cool, glad it worked.
Quick question, I got my OG as a gift and have the receipt but it has a family member's name and card number on it, did you need to show them ID or have your card (assuming you got it on a card).
Nope... Just needed my original receipt. They scanned it and it had all the info they needed. Didn't need to show a license or credit card.
Then again, after 45min they may have passed on all that info just to get me out of the store... Lol

Haha, well thanks for letting me know.
If I wasn't out of thanks for the day I would hit it.
i constantly read xda forum for whatever device i have but rarely post. But I had to post a reply to this. I purchased a LGOG about a week ago from BB and no one mentioned headset. i ran out during my lunch break to BB and picked it up. No questions asked...in/out in about 10min. Thanks XDA
i bought my phone on january 2nd and just called them about this, they thought i was crazy and had no recollection of it even when i told them how to find the link offer and they were looking at it they said i was SOL

Maybe try going in to the store and show them the link and ask if they will match the offer.
Go to the mobile section.
Sorry.

I used BB's own company computer to click the link provided by bleached45 in the first post to show them the deal was legit. So definitely go to the store.
Also, make sure you go back to the store where you purchased the LGOG. I figured all BBs are the same, but apparently not when it comes to purchasing phones. I went to one store and they told me too bad, I have to go to the store where I purchased the phone.
Not a good deal when you consider their phone price
Wow! $699 unactivated? That's pretty darn expensive, and makes the free $69 headset not worth it.
I got my OG for $579 direct from Ting, and I didn't think there was anything special about that price.
Swooby

I ordered my phone online and unfortunately there is no best buy and the closest one is over an hour away, dont feel like spending 3 hours driving to have the chance of them not giving it to me.
I got mine for the $99 promotion the day after christmas at a best buy about 30 minutes away. I have the receipt. Any chance they can mail it to me? If not I will get it next time im in that part of the valley.
Ah! Y'all are $99 carrier contract buyers. That make more sense.
I bought my OG without a contract through ting.com and pay $25/mo, saving me $65/mo...the price of that free BT headset!
Peace

I don't know, as far as I know, nobody has tried to get them to mail it.
I think your best bet is to go in, most people have reported that when they call about it bb said they couldn't match it, but in store they were able to get it.

okay, I got my parents to say I can go tomorrow or friday so is the music quality any good, or should I stick with my $100 wired headphones, and just sell it for other stuff I want to get?
Just stopped into my local BB they are out but there are some on the truck. Holding one for me when they put out the stock. Manager knew about the offer. Was way cool about it. Love best buy!

Bought my LGOG on 12/22, went in today and asked about the headset, the BB guy couldn't find the ad online, so I brought it up on my phone from the link here in the forums. He said OK no problem. Got me some new earbuds! They sound alright, not great. Actually they seem a little too small in my ears even with the bigger rubber cones. But I'm not going to b***** when they were free! :good:
Thread title says it all.
A lot of people buying retail are having issues and if I knew the Google ones were a better batch I'd order direct but do NOT want to get another bad unit without the luxury of exchanging in store.
Thanks.

Bought mine from Staples in Phoenix, AZ and haven't had any of the issues or problems that others are reporting. Don't think anyone retailer will be any better than another. Best advice if you're worried is make sure to check the retailers return policy. Staples has a no questions asked return policy for 14 days as long as you return it with the receipt and original packaging. Buy stuff from them all the time and return items and as long as you've got the receipt never had an issue.

Hi all
I have noticed my battery has slowly been getting worse, was just curious if anyone in the UK knows if there is any place where you can get a new battery put in?
Thanks all

Your best bet would be contacting ASUS directly in the UK.
I called them up last year and they sorted my Nexus by offering a replacement. They even replied to all my emails when I contacted them.
They also linked me to few franchises in case I do not want to deliver my device to them.

Why not replace it yourself? Buy a battery used on eBay then follow one of the guides on YouTube. Was planning to do this, but worried about the special tools needed to open case. Then tried the finger method and it was easy. One thing to check is if your usb port might be the problem. After scratching the pads to remove any build up my n7 is changing properly again.
