Looking for XDA guy from Craigslist: I bought a Galaxy S2 from you

Hopefully this isn't against the forum rules.
I'm looking for someone, I bought a T-Mobile Galaxy S2 from you off Craigslist yesterday. We were supposed to meet up today so I could pick up the box and accessories but I realized now that you don't have a phone anymore, I don't know how to reach you. You gave me your XDA username in case I needed to reach you but I'm an idiot and forgot it.
If you see this, could you PM me so I could get the box, the case piece, the receipt, charger, and extra battery from you?
Thanks

LOL and good luck.

If he sold you the phone I doubt he's in these forums any more.
Hercules Hercules!!

Do a search for his name...lawl missed that you lost his name.

this is literally the good'ol "looking for a needle in a haystack"
good luck buddy
i hope you haven't pay him yet

Yep, hope you didn't pay yet. Sounds like you hv the phone already though?

Lol, well, I paid him already.
But I do already have the phone, and the case, and the extra screen protector.
The box/receipt/extra part for the case/USB charger/extra battery seems like a weird thing to rip someone off over.
Heh, maybe I'll wait until tomorrow before I go nuts. From his XDA user name I found his Twitter and Google Plus accounts and contacted him on all of them. He's pretty active on XDA.
On the downside, he did mention when I met him yesterday he was leaving the country on Saturday....
On the other downside, he did mention on his Twitter dropping his phone and it slipping under the wheel of a car right before I bought it from him....

Lol. You're kidding right?

If there's one silver lining to my situation, I suppose it's that it seems to be bringing joy to the people of this thread.
Sadly, everything I stated is true.

Wow, this story just gets better and better. Lucky for you, you can always do a warranty exchange if something is wrong with the phone.
Good luck!

ahaha classic man! >.< well atleast all is well then. XD

Even though he sold you his phone, didn't he keep his sim card? his number should be unchanged...... unless he just totally went off the radar and decided he didn't need a cell phone anymore or switched providers without porting the number.

Using phone in public...

Does anyone attract attention while using their phone in public? I can't count the amount of people who were amazed at the phone. They usually say, " I thought only iphones can do that! "

then i guess i'm on the lucky side.
as everyone that has asked me they automatically recognizes it's a SGS2
they all say "wow! is that the S2?" or "How's reception on it?" or "which network are you using it on?"

Yeah, I had a couple of my friends with iPhones tell me the screen was really nice and clear. Its such a nice sized phone for me too.
There is enough hate in the world. Why can't we all get along here ...?

I always get asked, why is the screen so big lol

That's funny when women ask me why its so big they've never referred to the phone.

I was walking by a group of people in line for the iPhone4s and I hear some guys say "What is that?" one asked "hey bro can we see your phone?" They liked the huge screen, I told them about the 4g speeds, and they all go "ohh that's a Samsung." I then say "Yeah its a Galaxy S II, this phone is AMAZING." and proceed to get into a cab.

Everyone at my school already says that's a pretty big phone when they see my SR, I can't wait to hear the responses at how big my Note will be.
But of course, I usually get more replies about my penis size, but this is not the thread, nor the forum for that.

its been like over 3 months lol =/ soo sad, especially since it was supercurio, i trusted the guy =/

It has nothing to do with trust. He clearly stated his agenda and never gave a timeframe. He even stated a few times he was working on the note abd other phones first since they were easier fixes than our "black sheep" of a phone. He is well know and i wouldnt think that hed take a phone just to take it and not evetually work on it.

The blobs that everyone donated for was clearly a possible hardware issue which means that nobody would be able to fix it without mods made by hand. At best all he could do was look into it. Its not his fault people paid for a new phone just to look into it.
The whole situation is analogous to if Samsung released a new phone where a quarter of them had bad search buttons. It could be a software issue but likely a hardware problem with QA. Instead of exchanging the phone people then proceeded to setup a bounty to buy a new phone to get this fixed. Its looked into and it turns out its just a bad solder connecting the search button. This would of been likely in the first place and people should of just exchanged their phone rather than setting up a bounty for something which has a fair likelihood of being a hardware issue.
You have a hardware issue then exchange your phone.
If the blobs bother you exchange your phone. If the blobs only bother you when you have to follow a page of instructions on how to see it, really. If you need to follow a multi step guide to see it then its not that big of a deal. If it is then exchange your phone.

Just curious...
Anyone play the game Osmos....that will really show off your lines and blobs if you play it in a low light enviornment or at night.

I play it I notice it with auto brightness on mines so it doesn't bother me. Since my lines are not visible with auto brightness off. It doesn't bother me. Auto brightness is buggy on this phone. Anyway doesn't seem to accurate.

Yeaaa I turned brightness all the way up and it is much better of course but it is just unfortunate that this bandaid is the end all solution. The battery when playing a game and having the brightness all the way up gets effed.

I don't have to do that when auto brightness is on for me I have lines. When it's off at the lowest brightness no lines. If I can't see in the sun I just slide my fingers across the status bar to adjust.

This... No. It's not even August anymore, people. the only reason I know that is because the app told me. XD

So my phone fell in water in the street (chicago) so I gave it to someone to dry for me. First I rinse in clean water (again) cause i didnt want it to smell like sh!t after. They put it in rice and i think in the microwave( i dont even know why-___-) and now I have no 4G or WiFi. Any ideas?

Microwave metal == VERY bad idea, phone or not.
I would try to get all the water out, shake, blow etc. then set the device on top of something mildly warm such as a cable box, maybe a computer. Patience is a virtue.

I know that but I guess they didnt.. I just told them to dry it for me while I washed my **** smelling hands lol....

That did escalate quickly. If you might have noticed (at least this is how I read the OP), the OP is not the one who put the phone in the microwave to begin with. First sentence was "He gave it to someone to dry." Second, right after the microwave was brought into the play, he states that he didn't even know why it was put in the microwave to begin with.
Thank you for ending that particular discussion.
To the OP, as far as damage to your phone goes, I will have to agree that there is still definitely some water damage. I would do my best talking with Sprint to see if you can squeeze a phone out of them. I've done it in the past with water damage. Good luck to you.
