can i go to the tmobile store and trade my vibrant for a g2 or do i have to pay money
lol you'll have to pay, you cant trade a used phone for a new one, and I'm pretty sure T-mobile stores don't offer trade-ins.
only if you're within the 14 day or so grace period. other than that craigslist here you go.
Probably be best if you try and sell the Vibrant
alright thanks guys
Tmobile is not a used car lot. Not sure what your thought proccess was on that one.

i have both as well, and although i tried to love the Vibrant unconditionally the recent lag and non support from Samsung worried me too much so I went with the next closest thing to a pure google experience with a firmer build quality....im currently not sure what im going to do with the vibrant right now!

So...
this is my current Situtation...
I've been under a Contract for +14 months now with my career; when i first got the contract i got an Xperia X10 Back on October 2010 but i got bored of it and around May this year i made a switch for Free with them for the SGS1 which i must say is a beautiful phone and I really love how the phone works even it's more than 16 months old since it came out.
Here in Guatemala we have not too many options in regards of High End Phones such as the SGS2 or HTC at all... But i have the option of a Free Upgrade for 1 Xperia Arc in early December.
I've got someone from here who is willing to buy my SGS1 for a really good price (around USD $500 - High End phones are kinda expensive here hehe) and i wanted to ask for your opinion if you guys think is it worth to upgrade to the Arc and sell the SGS1... I mean i have the option of selling any of them and keep the other...
Also have you heard if Eventually the Arc will get the so awaited ICS update?
What do you guys think?
Thanks!
I have to say Yes We have few developers stepping in for building ROM's
Here is a comparison, you decide:

Any comment will be greatly appreciated.

I say get a gs2 or stick with gs1 Wayyy too good development
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I would upgrade to arc from SGS1 any day of the week... it's a really really great bit of kit... Love the camera, love the screen.. and it's not 100% confirmed for ICS but leaks have suggested that it will.
Sony have officially stated that all of their 2011 xperia models will be getting ICS. That includes the original arc as well as the arc S.
As far as the upgrading question goes, i would say the arc is definitely worth it. There are faster/more powerful phones out there, but nothing as well designed or with as good a camera.
Wow.I wouldn't buy a new galaxy S for 250$.sell it now

Going on line and spending $500 has nothing to do with getting a free upgrade from your service provider. Especially since he said dual core phones werent available in the original post.
He can sell his phone for500 = free upgrade

He never said dual core phones not available! The quote was not to many available so that means there are some not all

He specifically mentions not having the SGS2 or high end HTC phones available. And he's getting the offer of a free upgrade from his carrier. And yet this is your suggestion:

Hi all,
I currently have a Fascinate on Verizon and am sick of the issues it is having. It seems a large number of them have memory issues and it's constantly restarting and bootlooping at an empty battery screen. Long story short, I want to buy a used Play. Mainly for two reasons. One, I want a working phone, and two, I love playing emulators but hate on-screen controls.
How are you folks liking the Play currently? How are the ICS ROMs running? How is emulator performance (PS1 specifically) on ICS ROMs? Does the gamepad work on ICS ROMs?
Thanks for your help; I really don't want to switch phones for something worse :/
Best phone ever! Fact!
It's an android phone with a gamepad that makes gaming easier, what more do you want

The battery is one complaint.
Another is the wobblyness when the phone is closed.

How long do u get with the bttery with standard use and while hard gaming?
Sent from my LT18i using xda premium
I got my Xperia Play for 169euro in Vodafone IE, so i think it was the best value android phone ever! But i was worried becouse how come Vodafone reduced 500 euro price to 169, i thought it must be crappy phone! But after bootloader unlock and flashing .58 firmware + TrueAncestor Rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1546134&highlight=true i think this phone is great! Works fast and smoth, battery for me is long enough too, around 3 days for some wifi use, text and calls. Im not playing so much but i used keypad on GTAIII or Shadowgun and it was good fun! I hate using touchscreen if I played some game ever More likely i flashed few Custom Roms but the best working ICS ROM for me is AokPlay! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1582118. So many options!!!!!! and theme manager and many many more! good luck!
I wouldn't because in terms of performance, it's not an upgrade from your old phone, just install cm9 or something and keep using your phone till your contracts up :O
I don´t know If I would buy it again, it´s the best phone ever, BUT, it´s the WORST built quality I´ve ever seem, and I´m serious, it´s the cheapest plastic on a mobile I´ve ever, after 1 week only some cracks appears on the plastic, it hapenned twice, when I first bought it, and after I sent it back and received a new one, they both had the same problem...
Really a shame, it´s the perfect smartphone, with the worst material, don´t know why Sony did that...
I have dropped mine a couple of times but there are no cracks at all...

I'm not looking for an "upgrade" to my old phone. My old phone doesn't work properly as I said in my OP. I already had ICS on it too. I'm looking for something to hold me over till December till my upgrade is due, and I love emulators but hate onscreen controls.
I just ordered one today so it should be here Tuesday/Wednesday. Thanks for all the input guys
Title. I'm giving away my current phone to my brother next week. I'm upgrade ready. I suppose I can wait next month for one x+ or the next nexus. $100 for a top end phone isn't bad. Opinions?

100$ for One X? . Come on.. i've bought mine one week ago for ~470$ ;x. It's a steal... on mine contract this phone is priced much higher than simfree .
I like the phone but is it getting jelly bean? If so, when. That's what I'd be asking

sigh...and you ask?
what you think the One X is an iPhone 3Gs?
its only one of the best if not the best super smartphone ever and one of the most highly praised by the tech media...
JB will start pushing this month, select HTC trusted users already received the OTA

It is getting jellybean in October/November.

If you want to sell the phone to your brother for $100, do it. He is your family and if he's not working but just saving up his money then why not.

Since you're in the U.S. I'm guessing you're talking about the One XL on AT&T. First, it was recently free at Walmart wireless and they sold out. Other sellers price matched so it's pretty much out of stock everywhere now. The AT&T One XL was a pretty dismal phone. It had only 16GB of storage (11GB available to the user) and 1GB of RAM which was really 640MB since Adreno reserved 360MB for itself making multitasking awful. The One X+ will probably be $199 and you can get a SGS3 for $149. Personally, I'd skip the current AT&T One X even at "free." A bargain is only a bargain if you're getting something great for very little. In this case you'd be getting something very little for very little.
You can get it for a penny on amazon. Im guessing youre on AT&T since you said youre upgrade ready.

Quality Deal !
Ok,I just wanna ask if someone got a free gift from Sony or normal mobile phone retailer when buying Xperia ion??In 5 days,I'll buy an Xperia ion,and at here,they offer free gifts worth RM238 (238 divide 3 = USD amount) [HDMI cable,car charger,NCF smartag and LiveSound earphone]
The phone itself (including stock charger and earphone in box) is RM1788 or (1788 divide 3 = USD price) (Recommended price)
So,I wanna ask you guys : Do you got free gift when purchasing the phone?
PS : I'm from Malaysia
Sent from my SK17i using xda premium
Nope mine was a replacement I didn't even get headphones lol. I dont think I've seen anything about gifts though, sales may be down for yours area though I'm in the US. Could also just be the wireless company is low on profit so it's a gimmick so they dont go under, "buy our **** and well toss in more ****"

Hmm maybe because almost all people (not all) people use iPonnies expensive phone and our neighbourhood Sammy phone (well,most Chinese use the iPonnies because their parent are rich -,-')
Sammy phone also popular in Malaysia but I rarely see people use Sony phone except me and my whole family (even some of them use Sammy phone,they still got a Sony devices because it looks like a premium devices lol )

Yes, in the US we got free gifts. Depending on where you purchased some people got an 8GB sd card, like me. Others got headphones. I would have rather got the headphones, as I have plenty of SD cards already.
