Looking to get my hands on another Nexus after mine slipped and fell into the ocean last night. Too much liquor I suppose... You guys know anywhere cheaper than here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html?ie=UTF8&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&me=A1QPS08K9FKKNF
I ordered mine from here but it was $10 more when I bought it. Fast shipping and what I got was a brand new condition unit with all accessories. Nothing wrong with it whatsoever that I can tell.

I don't think you'll find them any cheaper. But if you want it you'd better hurry as there are only 4 left in stock and they sell em fast.
Pay the extra and get from negri or expansys so you have warranty. If you buy from Amazon or newegg you'll only have the return or maybe just exchange period as your warranty.

If you live in the US, you'll currently have zero warranty on the Galaxy Nexus, regardless of where you buy it.

it's weird that the gsm model is still so pricey considering that you can get the lte model off of craigslist under $500 now.

OK, I exaggerated. You get 15 days of warranty where you can exchange the phone. After that, you're left with a likely UK phone in the US trying to get support from Samsung. Ain't happening.

Still try again. Some of us ordered from expansys and negri for a reason. We might have to wait but we have warranty. Cheaper is not always better in this case. Thats why coreyl is laying down awesome customer service in the expansys thread.

Also because of expansys's exceptional customer service i am going to order my car dock from them. They goofed on some orders and coreyl went above and beyond making up for it. Ordering a couple accessories at a premium is the only other way to thank them.

Nope Verizon CDMA handset only. The GSM version would be required for elsewhere

Could you not just buy off contract from Verizon (yeah, $649.99 ) but still have the 1 year warranty?

Thru the warranty they send you the phone overnighrt. Usually you'll get it by the next day or the day after. Then after you receive it you send your defective phone via the same box the new one arrived.

You're thinking thru T-Mobile buddy, thru Sammy you need to send your device in 1st and its usually a 1 week turnaround.

Why would you send the phone to Samsung,when you can have it replaced much quicker through T-mobile? It doesn't matter where you bought it as long as you're a T-mobile customer.

You can only get a replacement through T-mobile if you have their insurance plan, otherwise you have to go through the manufacturer. You're **** out of luck if you don't have a receipt though. They don't care about the manufacture date on the phone, only the receipt.

Um no. If you bought from t mobile and chose to not take their insurance you still have a one year warranty rhat can be claimed. Through Tmobile by either calling csr reps, online chat or going to the store. Whomever told you otherwisenis misinformed.

I did send my Samsung nexus S for warranty work to Samsung and it took about 3 weeks till i got it back. Since then i have learned to always have a decent backup phone.
And this from Samsung not TMobile.

Mines took about 7-8 days. They did free 2nd day shipping both ways for me though. Got mines back better than the way I received it too lol. They replaced my cracked bezel, even though I didn't say that was the problem with my phone.

OK so I traded in 3 nexus allready and cannot get a nexus that doesn't drop data ! I allready flashed different radios still nothing . I heard this is common with the nexus and that Verizon nexuses drops and there trying to fix it is that true ? And if not how can I fix this problem ! Its really starting to irritate me .

You need to request a new phone, not a replacement. Luckily mine was fixed after the first replacement, but I believe there is a policy that after 3 phones, they give you either an equivalent phone, or a brand new one, factory sealed. It's 100% hardware related, so unfortunately no software will fix it.

Force 4g to stay on, you can do so by entering this in your phone dialer *#*#4636#*#*
Go into phone information, scroll down, and select the network speed you want.

Have you tried a new sim card? My Nexus was perfect until last week, I was dropping data constantly. I called Verizon and after speaking to a couple of techs they offered to send me a new sim. I didn't expect it to work but since activating the new sim not a single drop.

That happened to me. I called asurion. And this is my fourth and I hope last replacement.

which 4g?
LTE or Wimax?
If wimax, a simple adjustment to NAPID extensions or a reset of the dsa value may do ths trick.
Hey guys & girls, I'm gonna make it quick:
I need to send my Gnex in.. It has some screen problems, which aren't major.. But annoying in time...
My question is, since the Gnex is taken down from the store, how long will Google/Samsung repair it?
I'm curios, because when I'll wait, I'm scared if my carrier (where I send it from) will say they don't repair the phone cause it's too old... Or is there no "too old device" .. Maybe some people with older devices have some experience..
Thank you in advance.

Well in many European countries (germany included apparently) you are ensured a 2 year warranty by law, which they would have to obey if they sold the product in that country, insurance or not.
So if it's within this time, the carrier, who is the seller in this case would be obligated to either repair it, give you a new product and if the product is out of production, they would have to give you something similar or better.(the time in which the product is produced and sold can not limit this)

Just contact the carrier, they will know how to handle it.
Yeah, but I thought I'll get in troubles when I say "I have a defective device, but I only send it in when it's broken" ..
I know I don't have to say it that way, but even the question how they handle it would make them suspicious..

If T-Mobile stopped caring the Galaxy S3 Pebble Blue 16 GB and replaced it with the Titanium Grey version; and a manager said the warranty replacement is on backorder; and the Pebble Blue hasn't been in stock for at least 2 months, does that mean I will still get a Pebble Blue one since it was my original phone?

If they don't have it in stock they will send you the titanium gray. Login to your my T-Mobile account and look under orders to see what they ordered for you.

My bet is you will still end up with blue. Maybe out of stock for new but I'm sure there are plenty of rebuilt ones for warranty replacement. Usually when you return a phone it goes to a rebuild factory and get a few things replaced like charger port and power button and things like that. and than they use those for replacement. Of cause I'm not talking about "recent purchase" but warranty replacement. Keep us posted.

He was told that they are out of stock on refurbished blue s3's. They don't give new phones for warranty replacements so they wouldn't have told him their inventory on them. This happened to me with my s2. They were out of refurbished black ones so they sent me a brand new white one. It depends on how long it is going to take for them to get you the original color/how far backordered they are.

I just hot off the phone with t Mobile. Not real happy. They are out of stock on s3. They are back ordered with no eta. I asked is there a different color or something else they can do? She was no help. Ill be leaving town Monday and looks like ill have to dig up an old RAZR i have somewhere. Very disappointed in Tmobile. Pay warranty and insurance month after Month after Month. Need a replacement one time and this is the service they deliver. Shame on you rmobile. Pi$$ poor.

I actually just talked to them today to replace my white one. After issues I had with a waaranty replacement they offered me a brand new one but since they are completely out of the white one they offered me the titanium. I don't care about the color its the same phone. I didn't care for the blue ...so . but they lady told me as far as she knew the white was out of stock and they only had the gray or blue but blue was backordered. I must have gotten the. Last titanium . . Maybe they are getting rid of the. For the lte version.

Dang, but the silver lining might be that you get a T999L model as warranty replacement due to their inability to provide a T999 model. Just have to wait until April to receive your replacement phone.

They sent my phone to me on the 21st. I got a bad IMEI and I still cannot get it unblocked. They told me 48 hrs on 3/21, 24 hrs on 3/23, and then 24 hrs on 3/25. Sounds like they cannot do jack for me. I have to wait till like 6pm ET tomorrow if not, call and get them to send me another phone and I sent this POS back to T-Mobile. My parents are pissed that T-Mobile is treating my like crap. $400 for an S3 that I paid out of pocket from work during the summer down the drain. Bad luck for the college student, smh.
