Reluctantly I have to sell my beloved Universal, mainly because I have bought another CE device (Smartbook G138), and I find it not very easy to maintain two such powerful devices with overlapping functions. It would be good to find a new home for this buddy. I used to be a collector of small devices but now real life (work and family) compels me to go frugal and simple and stay focused on practical matters.
General condition (appearance only): 7/10, w/ normal wear, no broken parts or cracks or lines, etc
Screen: Super bright (i need to set to the lowest backlight most of the time ) and with NO problems (e.g. dimming, yellowish, lines, etc.) at all! w/ scratch-proof screen protector on.
Casing: The device was originally in European silver casing, but then I changed it to O2 Exec black, while keeping the silver keyboard with red backlight, which looks very cool to me (like a volcano in the dark )
RAM: And most importantly it has already been upgraded to a whopping 128MB of RAM, which DOES make a clear difference in performance than the original 64MB.
All other features: phone, wifi, bluetooth, camera, mic, speaker, d-pad, card slot are fully operational with no issue.
ROM: It is now running the rock solid Tomal v8.9 (128 version), which is free of issue of using wifi WPA found in the older builds (e.g. 8.1, 8.5)
Power supply: one 4800mAh (Cameron Sino) and one 1600mAh (Momax). Both hold very good charge, esp. the Momax one which was bought just two months ago and imho it's the best quality battery I've ever used.
AC charger included.
Shipping: will sell worldwide from Hong Kong.
One issue - lately the post regulations have been tightened in order to follow the latest ICAO policies, such that all rechargeable batteries are prohibited to ship via airmail. So my suggestion is to send the device via airmail (EMS is preferred), and the two batteries via surface mail (generally taking ~4 weeks). You only need to pay for the airmail part, and I will cover the cost of surface mail.
(probably express couriers are okay here, but i have to check).
I still have the original european packaging including the box so if you prefer I can pack everything using the original packaging, which I think is the safest.
Price & payment: I am asking for 150 Euros (net price, shipping not included). Paypal only.
PM me if interested. Will respond within the same day (GMT+8). Pictures can be provided upon request.
Thanks!!
Any pictures
I will buy it. I really need this. Please PM me what info is needed or send the invoice to [email protected]
Move to marketplace
There is a dedicated section for selling, you´ll have more chances there.
Items sold. Thank you for your interest.
Hey, sorry, Orb3000, I didn't realize there is a dedicated marketplace, and I've seen some sale posts in this sub-forum so I did the same.
Well, we live and learn =]
remember next time ! =]
Thanks for the echo
bought these from an eBay seller and have requested a replacement pair as I didn't think they matched the description however it appears they do (listing was conflicting) however I can see glue on them and the speakers and logos are stuck on wonky
fake? or just poor quality seconds

also noticed that they don't even make this colour after multiple googling's
WOW instant solution
PM from admin on UK Skullcandy forums:

Happy Holidays to you and yours!
couldn't ask for more, what fantastic customer satisfaction!
Now that's customer service....
It looks very comfortable. Do they still offer a 50% off on a replacement?
I bought fake fmj's also
Hellloo, today my new Skullcandy fmj's came today (off ebay) because my old ones broke and the sound quality is horrible. It also looks dodgy compared to my old ones. What should i do?
Hi All,
I found this while I was browsing around.

The MSRP is $99, they're charging $25 right now. Tried googling the name, but nothing comes up. Then again, its hard to mess up a wireless charger. I ordered it anyway.
Just in case anybody else is interested. :good:

Looks like another no-name charger. $25 isn't a good deal
Yeah I bought 4 of these on ebay for 15$ a piece shipped I started with two , they worked perfect so I bought two more a couple days later all in 4 for 60$ I couldn't be happier just do a quick search on ebay, if your u sure just hit me up I'll find my reciept....

There is no way the MSRP on that is $99. Definitely not a "steal" as they put it. I've been burned by that website before on a MicroSD card that was advertised as a sandisk class 10 but ended up being some knockoff brand when it finally got to me, loose and floating around an envelope in no packaging.

DO NOT buy this!!
It has a proprietary plug, is not micro USB, and the output is only 750mA... It will charge your phone extremely slowly compared to other Qi chargers.
Most other Qi chargers, even ones half this price have a 1000mA output.

I will admit its not that fastest charger out their, but by no means it is a bad wireless charger what so ever. Takes under 3 hours to get a full charge from 0%.
I had a Tylt Wireless Charger on order and had to cancel the order after reading about their over heating issues. While N5 users using the DT900 have nothing but good things to say about it, a simple search here on XDA will prove you that.
The Nokia DT-900 is a quality wireless charger, especially when compared to any cheap eBay wireless charger you can buy, I would never set my phone on a cheap eBay wireless charger.

If you generalize about the quality of a product strictly based on price and where you buy it from, you'll miss out on great products sorry to say. And I have done quite a bit of reading, both here on xda and elsewhere about the DT-900, and it's a mixed bag. Most of the high praise was due to the price when they had a fire sale, the performance is just average, many saying on the slow side. Also with issues of having to perfectly find the sweet spot, despite it having 3 coils.
While I agree the Tylt Vu is not my cup of tea, if you search for posts I've done about cheap Qi chargers. I've got ones that we're under $12, charge fantastically, and have no problems with detection. And yup, dirt cheap from ebay, the place where you would never set your phone down.

What I meant by the cheap eBay products is that they aren't name brands, meaning they are cheaply made by god knows who...
I don't think their sale price has anything to do with it, look at Tylts they had a 50% off sale on them, and it has just exposed the overheating issue with the N5 even more because more people bought them and were affected by the issue. Whereas Nokia's also had them on sale and has gotten good reviews, barely any complaints on the N5 forums.
But we are all entitled to our own opinions, so I respect yours.
I will happily read those posts,
Thanks.

Sure I agree everyone has their own opinions. But also just because something isn't name brand doesn't mean its a cheap pos. That's another generalization you're making.

I guess I just don't trust cheap no name brand things, ever heard of 'You get what you pay for"?

Just curious, do you buy name brand over store brand items?
Oh that is not a steal, even I know that, they sell those on eBay for less the 10 bucks all day...

I just searched on eBay and did not find one for $10, the cheapest one was $20 shipped from Brooklyn. Unless your looking at auctions which haven't ended.
So there you go folks Nokia DT-900 even cheaper: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nokia-DT-90...3747?var=&hash=item8e13c7e2f2&vti=Color White
If you were talking about the Wireless charger that the OP pointed out then I retract what was said above.

Okay, but that's your mistake. You're assuming everything name brand is somehow better, and everything no name is cheap. In other words, you are the exact target audience for advertising, branding, marketing, and labels.
A Nike symbol on a shoe, doesn't somehow make it higher quality than the exact shoe without the swoosh stitching. They're still made at the same $1.50 hour sweat shops overseas. Only that little check mark allows a store to mark it up hundreds of dollars more.
Have you seen how a bread factory works? It's the same production line, at the very end it splits off in multiple directions for multiple brands. Wonderbread, walmart, house brand, no name. Same production line, same product, different branding, vastly different prices. Your breakfast cereal works the exact same way, same factories, different boxes and branding. No name/generic, skips the advertising and branding, so they charge less, and I save money.
But if you want to keep the opinion that generic = cheap garbage, go for it. I'll happily spend less money for a product that is the same or better, even if it doesn't have a few extra letters associated with a giant corporation.
Here's an example I did about the Nexus 5 quicksand cases. Name brand vs Generic ebay. One is $20, the other $0.99
You tell me if the 20x increase in price is worth it.

I never said that generic brands in totality are garbage. That's why in a post above I said depends.
You can't always compare cheap no name brands to high end brand names. Sometimes you can sometimes you can't.
But this is really worthless, this thread was simply about someone wanting to buy a $25 no name cheap wireless charger and I pointed out that for $24.50 they could buy something that is better in terms of quality and brand.
BTW nice find with the cases, in that case the generic brand was of very similar quality when compared to the name brand.

Thanks, but on technicalities, it's not "similar quality" to the name brand case. It is the SAME case, minus some ink for 1/20 the price.
Also, it isn't worthless to bring this topic up, because despite talking about it, you continue to keep making ignorant generalizations, in this case, ones with no factual basis.
For instance, why do you automatically assume his charger of choice is a "no name cheap wireless charger?" You know absolutely nothing about it. Sure there are ones out there that cost less, but why would you assume his is bad? Just because it isn't Nokia, Sony, Samsung, or whatever other billion dollar conglomerate, doesn't make the product no name or cheap.
Then you list a Nokia, saying it's better in terms of quality and brand, yet you have no basis for comparison other than what you're imagining.
Your recommendation, other than the word Nokia molded in the plastic in worse in every way than almost all other standard Qi chargers.
1) It uses proprietary inputs, almost every other manufacturer uses the standard micro USB adapter.
2) Most reviews say it requires finding the sweet spot to charge, or the phone doesn't recognize it.
3) It's output is 750mA while almost all others are 1000mA.
So again, how is the Nokia better in terms of quality and brand when in all actuality, the product is worse in every way?
This is going to be my last post as it isn't adding much to the topic.
Its like comparing a a Mercedes Benz to a Kia. Which one is better my friend? The Benz or the Kia. We all know the high end brand is going to be better.
If you tell me the Kia then we all know who is actually being ignorant.
Remember I earlier said it is my opinion, and that I respected yours. I'm not going to lower myself to getting into some stupid fight with you over this. Like I said and will say again it is my opinion. If you don't respect another people opinions the one who shouldn't be recommending products is yourself.
