Verizon Galaxy Nexus is Releasing Next Week As Per Store REP - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hello folks,
I had gone to Verizon store to get a new sim card for my Razr. As the rep was trying to swap my sim, i asked the rep if the nexus is available. She said not this week, but i should be able to get this next week. I asked her how much it will cost me on contract, she said 299.99$.
I asked if she had a demo that i can play with, she said yes and gave me one from the back counter.
So folks here it is, next week we are getting the galaxy nexus..yaaay..

im at a loss trying to figure out how you have been thanked 21 times.

I like turtles

I can confirm this. Went into radio shack and they had a galaxy Nexus that they let me play with. They said I could not turn it on but I verified it had Verizon branding and everything! They said it was supposed to be released today but was delayed because of Verizon's 4g outage! !!!

Lmao. Thanks for the heads up. This adds another confirmation about next week. There is a thread that pretty much states that they are releasing it on pretty much everyday starting tomorrow. On average there is a over whelming number of people hearing the 15th.

lol they can definitely turn it on. I played with one for about 10 minutes in the Verizon store today, on 4G.

Wow. Gullible as hell. It will be sold when it will be sold. They don't know **** at these stores. I'm still laughing about the 4g outage comment. Thank you for the laugh.

didn't you guys hear?.. I spoke to a hermit crab earlier that told me Verizon's discontinueing the Nexus to focus solely on Motorola phones.

Had called Verizon to reserve one on Monday, when we all thought they were releasing them today... Store rep. called me today, said it will available on the 15th to pick up.

yeah the 15th is the new confirmed possible release date/rumor.

So, what's the price point with and without a contract?

Rezound is $649.99 at Verizon retail stores. Same with the RAZR.

$799 is what Best Buy charges for full retail, Verizon stores will be charging $649.99 like the RAZR & Rezound.

Availability at Best Buy and Radioshack?????

Has anyone been able to get a definate answers as to wether Best Buy and Radio Shack will be getting the Epic Touch 4g? If so what price did they say???
It sure doesn't seem like Radio Shack knows what's up. They didn't have a clue what phone I was referring to and told me to check back on Thursday afternoon after I said SGS2, Epic Touch, and finally Samsung Galaxy S2 Epic Touch 4G! Wow..really?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I got verification from my buddy who is a manager at RS, it will be sold there.
BestBuy isn't positive, but, the guys I spoke with there said they would be shocked if it wasn't going to be there... Will know for certain tomorrow afternoon.

I spoke to guy this morning at my local BB and he said they stock tonight and to check back with him late to see if they got any. They also finally added the touch to the radioshack website today, so I assume they will soon know whats up at my local radio shack.
I called best buy she started talking about the og epic... Smh... She said check back on monday... Im going to have to order from sprint on friday and wait until monday 8(

Its confirmed at Best Buy for Friday but price is still unknown. Was gonna be 199.99 but may be 149.99 thanks to walmart
I've heard confirmation of BB Friday morning at open, should be the regular $199.99 price with contract that is being advertised. From my experience, BB hasn't dropped prices until pretty much everybody else has, but I guess it's never too late to change
They will price match though!

Really?? Do you think they'll actually do that since the price being advertised from Wally World & Wirefly were for pre-orders? Wouldn't be a pre-order if we picked it up after release at BB...I have a feeling (being a former employee of theirs) that they won't budge a nickel.
That's just my feeling though, anyone feel differently?

Im actually hoping that the 149.99 walmart price will hold through to the brick and mortar stores. Then with a little luck you can persuade best buy to match. Otherwise 199.99, but Im not sweating it too much. Im going to either sell or trade my evo, which should help me out quite a bit. Then with having to carry a phone for work they will kick in some monies for a new device every year. I just have to find someone to have one in stock on launch. I just got off the phone with my sprint store, which is a sprint store by wireless paradise, and the said that they are backordered bad. He then proceeded to tell me Sammy didnt make enough and that Im going to quite lucky to get one on launch.... I will be the worlds saddest panda if I dont get one of these. I havent been this hyped about a device since lite brite.

Employees cant buy them till next month unless your doing a straight up contract like a normal customer. But we just looked in RSS (inventory) and it looks like 5 per store. My buddy watched them unload and from the truck to the cabinet 5 was it.
BTW, 199.99 You may get your store to price match walmarts 149 but its gonna depend if the manager will honor it. I like my 2nd job so Im not pushing the issue.

Received a free Galaxy Nexus from Google!!

The company I work for is a direct partner with Google. They were in our office today for a quarterly update. While they were here they gave a free unlocked Galaxy Nexus to the client leads of the top 3 (highest ad spend) accounts. Luckily I was one of the 3.
I am coming from the Samsung Galaxy S2. Right now I have to say that I am surprised at how similar the two phones actually are. But I am loving the full ICS experience found on the Nexus.
Anyway, just wanted to share my story. I'm excited to see how the development section for this phone turns out.

You got the GSM version (with original packaging).
Enjoy it! It's a great device.
congratz dude!
Are you in the US? If so, I'm surprised they gave you the GSM one. But it's awesome.
Thanks guys! I'm pretty excited.

Yeah, I live in Denver. It's funny you said that. One of the guys who won one is on Verizon and he tried to activate it with them. Verizon said it wouldn't work on their network. He asked Google if he could swap his unlocked GN for a Verizon GN and they told him they didn't have any with them or at headquarters.

Interesting. I just texted my coworker to get in contact with one of our reps at the Mountain View location to see if they can swap it out. The reps that visited us were 'positive' they didn't have any Verizon version on hand.

Haha I've actually acquired about 10 of them over the past couple of years. Unfortunately, this is my favorite one to date. I have a few black ones and red ones I don't wear if anyone wants them. One medium and the rest are larges.
I actually have a LTE version that I want to swap for a GSM one. I have T-Mobile and signing up for a Verizon plan would cost me over $20 a month extra. PM'ing you. I'm still debating going with Verizon, if only to keep the 32GB of space.
Congrats enjoy Google
Congratulations. I'm jealous.
@sn0warmy
Could you post your build.prop for us so we can see if it differs from the normal UK imported GSM versions?

My new play Nexus running on Straight Talk

Man after being under Sprints thumb for 2 years I am free. I live in a rual area and had to have an airave just to get phone calls. I have full bars now and 5mb dl speed. I know thats slower than some are getting and I bet it's faster closer to town. All I can say is I love it. Anybody thinking about it should make the switch. Plus pure Google is pure awesome.
Good to hear. I am in the process of making the jump to T-mob Monthly 4G from Sprint. Their data service has become so slow (45 kb/s) in my area, that paying "Premium Data" charges is ridiculous. I really like the prepaid business model versus subsidizing the device.
Congrats! I left horrible Verizon for Straight Talk with GSM Nexus. I actually get better service on ST Att than I was getting with Verizon.
I also came from sprint which couldn't even steam pandora.

Best thing I have found with google now if you open it and say S*&T it takes you to the Sprint stocks page. Best laugh I have had in a long time.
Anyone interested in going to Prepaid should checkout the HUGE Prepaid thread here.
I did the same thing. I have had my Nexus for about 2 weeks now using it with Straight Talk sim and I love it. Came from the Rezound.
Called and complained to Verizon twice in 1st 6 months about my service and they let me out without ETF.
Had 3 lines ~$230.00 month for Rezound, iPhone and another dumb phone. Now paying $150.00 for 2 Smart Phones "Nexus and Galaxy Y for my son" and 1 dumb phone "iPhone" for my wife.

Uses Verizon towers for voice & 3G... after 800mb of data he will get a letter from Sprint saying goodbye.. sometimes it can take a few months to receive the letter.

Just upgraded! Paid for next day shipping as well. Not sure about the memory size but I'm guessing it's the 16GB. I didn't see another option. Can't wait!
BTW, it sais that it's not available but I'm guessing it's because the system isn't fully updated yet.

You need to be a registered prepaid user. Unregistered/new users will always have the plan services shoved to them.
I'm on pre-paid already - $30/mo 5GB and registered. I want to order the phone and pay full price for it yet the system can't complete my order.
I'm getting the same thing now. I don't realize I wasn't signed in lol. But still getting error.
$649 No contract.
Ordered my T-Mobile upgrade from WireFly this morning for $279.99 with no rebate. Now to wait impatiently for it to show up!

HTC One Mid Night Release Online?

I plan on purchasing my HTC One M8 online at tmobile.com
It will be my first time making a purchase from the online store on tmobile.com, does anyone know at about what time will TMobile put the phone up for sale on the website?
Will it be at midnight? Or will it be around 8-9AM similar to the time retail stores open?
Why not just go to the store tomorrow?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 2
Especially since you would have to wait for shipping
No point on ordering it on line and wait for a Monday shipping. I'll be in line at the store at 10am
My work hours are 14 hour shifts and store will be closed by the time I get off. I work Fri Sat Sun LOL will be Monday when Im off again.
If I do over night shipping I can have it on my door step saturday if im lucky or Monday morning.
Which is why im wondering if the phone will be up for sale tonight at midnight.
Has anyone bought a 0day phone online before from tmobile.com?
Stores by me are all opening at 8, probably for the S5 also.
Its not on the site yet.... 1am EST....

I can confirm that WeakSauce does not work on this device because we don't have /system/lib/libdm-systemaccess.so on our devices.
That's okay, because HTC Dev will generate a bootloader unlock code for the device, so you can unlock the bootloader and root that way.
