***Phone question*** - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

How much could I sell my galaxy nexus with a slightly cracked screen for?

Take what a replacement screen costs and subtract it from what a good used one goes for.

As much as someone is willing to pay for it.

Cdma or GMS?
From a Galaxy far far away

65% of what a new one cost minus near the cost of getting the screen fixed

Used perfect ones go for like $300 or so. The screen and digitizer are one piece that costs around $200 so.. there you go.

Yeah... its not worth a whole lot. The only thing one with a broken screen is worth is other parts that someone is in need of for replacement on their own device. No one's gonna buy it to replace the screen unless they're getting super cheap parts.

Thanks guys this is helpful I'll be putting it on Craigslist pretty soon

Cracked screen! Tell me what you think.

So I'm looking to buy a sgs2!
I'm looking at a white one for a really good price only flaw is that there is a crack in the screen
Which isn't a problem because it's not on the screen (including pics below!)
So my question to you guys is will this crack on the screen spread towards the screen?
Let me know what you guys think

It might be if u drop it

But just in every day use do you think it will spread?

I wouldn't buy a broken phone

Any pressure like having it simply accidently leaning on it could very easily spread the crack... I'd stear clear lol
I would just buy a kit off amazon for $20 and fix it yourself
If dropped it will spread.
On a side note...I'll sell you mine for $400 in pristine condition
I'm buying it for 275 does the price make up for it?

Nope....display alone is $100+
Yeah I wouldn't. You would have to be super gentle with it always or it might spread. But in the end it's all up to you.

Sure you might save a couple hundred now but in a few months when the crack spreads you'll be spending a lot more. Might as well spend the bigger bucks up front for a new phone instead of buying a cracked one an then possibly having to also buy a new one shortly after.. Just my $0.02

That type of crack will only spread.
Some on the corners can be stopped with superglue if not a structural crack like that one. The torsion of the phone alone will cause that crack to spread.
I wouldn't buy it, by time you're done buying a new display (and the pain in the rear of attempting to separate a broken screen from the adhesive) it will be at least 400-450 total for the phone. That is, if you dont break the filament for the touch buttons at the bottom trying to separate it from glass shards.
I wouldn't buy it for more than 100 dollars. Screen will cost you 175 conservatively, so tack that on.
275 total is good for a used phone that probably has other issues.
Thanks guys
Thanks guys looks like im not going with that phone. Im looking at a slightly used Gnex for 315

[Q] Broke my screen, anyone have a good place to reccomend for parts?

It's the T989, I just want to buy the whole front piece including the LCD, any help would be appreciated and yes I already looked on ebay
Thanks
I had to replace my s2 screen unfortunately it cost me nearly as much as my s2 :-( I chose ebay

Any unlocking cell shop in Florida can carry the devices parts. Might have to wait a few days but by then it would be cheaper than getting a new phone

I don't have insurance for t-mobile, I use simple, so I have to buy the part straight out I guess
Ahh that sucks. But my opinion, I rather buy another one just to have . Extra battery which is how I got mines. Paid 100$ and it came with a battery charger and 2 batteries included. Someone was hurting for money I guess. I didnt inspect it or nothing. Had water damage. Sent it in to tmo and the sent me another one for an extra 20$. Can't beat it for the price I paid

true, I'm going to have to see if I can find a stronger case, if not, I might just go buy a commando for verizon, these phones are getting to expensive to repair these days

Insurance or Upgrade?

Dropped my T989 the other day and finally the glass broke. So should I spend the $130 to insurance swap it or the $200/250 to upgrade it?
Both

Upgrade, get the s3.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2
If it were me I would consider my budget. If you can afford the extra 80-130 bucks then by all me as upgrade.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Depends on how much you liked your SGS-2. If you've got the upgrade credit, I'd use it for the SGS-3. And BE SURE to get insurance for it. That thing's more fragile than the SGS-2.

If i were you i will get it fixed via insurance and sell it on 350 so that you i can buy s3 . Takes some time but saves your money too.

OMG... I dropped my Device yesterday for the first time on my ceramic tile floor and the back cover flew off and it was face down. I can barely get the back off when I try it's attached so good. I was freaking out when I picked it up.
Luck was on my side because it left a tiny scratch on the corner where it hit the floor and nothing else, but man it must of hit with some force to fling off the back cover.
I love this device, but I say go with the upgrade if you can only do one.

Anybody had any luck selling their S3?

Yes I understand this is kinda a sacrilegious post, but has anybody been able to sell their phone? If so, what price and how long did it take you to get it sold?

I have not personally sold mine, however I have seen people getting up to $500 for it if it's in mint condition
However you can definitely get $400 for it easily, and at $350 it will move in 24 hours or less I'd bet.
Check craigs list and ebay to see what others are selling for.

I sold my sprint S3 for 375... Took about a week on craigslist
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Seems like everybody want to sell their s3 and get note 2. On ny craiglist there are too many offer to sell or trade.
So I am not even keeping that option.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I'm also in NY and for me to move this quickly in mint condition it would take me selling for $350 or less with all my accessories Nd that's not happening. I'll keep my gs3 as powerful as the note 2 is it doesn't justify the money I have to spend getting it over the s3. Sadly neither does the n4.
I wonder what the next step for android will be. The sgs3 was a nice "jump" and the note 2 is a little move forward but I'm looking for a leap before I move anything.

Depends on you area. I keep grttonf offers of $450 but i still dont see a better phone in the market
I'm going to post mine for sale for 475$ dock charger/spare battery slot, and 2 spare batteries, and a rock case. Phone doesnt have a scratch on it... just waiting to play with the Nexus 4 once my friend gets it.

Meaning polycarbonate back with aluminum front bezel and carbon fiber rear inlay with TPU liner. $69.99 and says it's shipping March 20th. Multiple colors, check it out: http://casemachine.com/wp-content/plugins/cscart/index.php?dispatch=categories.view&category_id=256

$200 phone? This isn't a mytouch. Phone retails for $500+.

It was 200 on contract when it first came out though, he probably got it on contract like most of us did. I could never get away with buying a phone at retail, my girlfriend would punch me in the neck

If we're talking subsidised prices then ALL phones are 200-300 dollars and therefore NONE are worth a $70 case. It's a 500+ dollar phone.
