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!

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.
LOL friend was bragging that he could make payments with his phone...

I have a GSM GNEX with Google Wallet and all, but I have to admit, that's a brilliant idea.
(runs off to make a case that holds your NFC credit card so it's not visible)
Instant NFC back. It's actually logical......
It's one thing to have it built into a case where it's not visible but an entirely other to just stick it on the back with some tape or glue ...pretty tacky if you ask me...

Well of course, hence the comment about making a case to hide the card.
Every succesful idea starts out pretty rough around the edges.
Where can we actually use Google Wallet in the US to pay for things? Not even sure how this works. I thought there are just a few places that accept this?
It doesn't replace your credit card right now in the US does it?
Looks like I should upload a pic of my GN with built in hunting knife

Where is the list when you need it?
"Another reason to own a GNex over an iPhone"
I didn't see the list present and I was just wondering....
Was that reason number 5438 or 5439?
LOL made me laugh
i dont see NFC is an advantage over iphone.
i make payment much faster with my credit card than using my phone.
turn on phone > pattern unlock > tab > enter pin > tab > hit send
One more reason
And the most sad and funny all rolled into one...

lol...did I ever say there were 5440 reasons....
and I'm sorry to hear that you all have problems with NFC but it has always worked first go for me. You can set your pw timeout in wallet so you dont have to go through the pin process. I have Wallet in my google folder on the home screen. All i have to do is wake up my phone tap twice and scan. Quicker than taking my wallet out and then my card, and then entering my pin/signing a receipt.

What is the last part after entering your pin? I'm confused by tab and send. I've used my phone pretty much everyday since buying it to pay for something and I have never done anything other than unlock and enter the pin. I usually do this while standing in line and since the app stays unlocked for roughly 5 mins after entering your pin the only thing I need to do when checking out is turn it on. No unlocking etc is needed. Because I can enter the pin etc while standing in line it makes it MUCH faster than using my card.
I think my girlfriend is going thru my phone when I'm in the shower, going to grab and bite to eat, or anytime I leave my cell phone around that gives her the opportunity to look thru it. BTW..I'm not cheating on her.
Is there an app out there that will log when someone uses/unlocks my phone and or sends a pic of her when she tries to access my phone. I don't believe in unlock passwords, cause I have nothing to hide.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!!

You could always clear your recent app history and check it when you think she looked at it unless she would know how to clear that. Then you would know what she opened too.

Get the app with the password but give her the password. Set that app up but use nova launcher to hide it. Give her the password upfront but just tell hr you want a secure. But in all honesty, crazy girls like that are hard to deal with. Unless you're very patient and love her you might want to reconsider. I once got in trouble for two girls talking about my small ears in Korean on a subway. Though I am Korean I don't know the language but my crazy gf at the time did. Un****ing real the situations you can go through with women like that.
...
Best advice is ask her.
Yeah people lie, but if you have nothing to hide she should have put that together by now. If you've proved trustworthy and she still has issues then talking about it would be far better then trying to bust her looking for something that isn't there.
Wife and I have open phone policy. Look at it all you want.

This is by far the best idea, simple easy and free.
Another option would be starting a logcat > logcat.text command (can't remember thr exact code) and that will show the screen go up and what apps are loaded and such

Use face unlock. It's not as telling of suspicion as switching to a pin code, but if you're having to assume she's snooping, as opposed to blatantly picking it up in front of you and cruising around it for sh!ts and gigs(my wife) , then it stands to reason that she's not going to confront you about it, if you just decided to use a "nifty feature you like on the phone"

Great find! What's interesting is that Google has been tracking how much you walk since late September. Did you by any chance just get your device/factory reset it then?

Lets hope we get some more details about it soon.
It appears to use latitude to track your location history.

Hey guys.
Recently my beloved nexus' radios decided to quit working. I've tried everything to get them back but the harsh reality is that they just don't work anymore. I made a thread in the Q&A section to no avail.
Decided to go with the GS4 so I have an unused somewhat defective, and clearly used phone that is just sitting on my desk. When I went from my incredible to the gnex, I gave my incredible to one of the awesome devs that made that phone so much better. I'm thinking of doing it again because you guys are so great.
So if you are a dev, contact me and I'll so my best to give it to someone who can truly use it. Whether it be for parts or as a test flashing device, etc.
I can ship the phone free of charge through amazon since I work there so there really is no hassle involved.
Just to be clear, the radios (as far as I can tell) don't work, the charging port is a bit loose and sometimes hard to charge, and there are a few scratches on the screen and around the bezel. Other than that everything works. So perfect for a test device for your future roms.
I really want someone to USE the device and not just turn around and sell it, although I would be none the wiser. So let me know if you NEED it.
Thank you to this community (most of you ) and to all the hard working developers that got me thru the last few years. It's been fun.

Well I have one already.
Although, it's the sprint variant.
You see, I don't make that much money, and I got this for christmas, sure it's great, but since it's limited to CDMA, I cannot be flexible with it at all.
It really does suck, I've been wanting to sell it and replace it with a GSM Galaxy Nexus, but no one will buy it, everyone already moved on to wanting the galaxy S4 or something similar.
So I definitely don't NEED it, but it would save me some money with me being able to change to Straight talk.
About the broken radios, I can try and repair it, buy a new charging port, buy a new antenna, etc etc, it'd be a fun project. I've already started some development for myself for the toroplus, and the GSM Galaxy nexus would allow me to fully mess with a semi working Ubuntu Touch OS.
And, if it wasn't given to me, which it probably won't, I actually have a cheap 12 dollar otterbox like case for the GSM Galaxy Nexus, I messed up on the order and got that instead of one for my model.

Friend of mine really wants to start developing for phones. And I told him a nexus phone would be the best. But he doesn't really have the money to buy one and neither do I. So he could really use it and he did some development for his old tablet and as far as I can see he's quite good at it. So I think he would be a real good person to have here on the forums.

Like I said, I don't want to give this to someone just to have them sell it so the only insurance I have is making sure you are already a developer of some sort.
