So my wife broke her inc 2 the other day, I don't have insurance, and I don't wanna pay full price for a replacement, where can I get a cheap phone? I don't even care if its an inc 2 as long as its a Droid, preferably a rootable one

I would look on local craigslist near you for a nice inc1 or inc2..
Don't know why I didn't think of that, thanks man. In case I can't find a good inc one or two, is there another good phone you would recommend that has good dev support? My nephew has an x2 and I like it but I think the bootloader is still locked. Thanks for answering yet another of my posts, I try to pass it forward, help others when I can...

Get an inc1 for cheap. Awesome phone. I'd stay clear of Moto phones. Personal preference i guess. Check the for sale threads on xda. Lots of deals

I agree 100% HTC phones over moto all day long. agree on the inc2 part too, you shuld be able to find a good condition one for about $100 I think.
There are all sorts of info ou there, saying different things as to the release date of the Galaxy Nexus (Nexus Prime woulda been better!) on T-Mobile's Networks, I haven't had the time to research it as much as I'm sure some of you have, can someone confirm a date for Nexus Prime date on T-Mobile?
I'm hoping before Black Friday, so I can get it on Black Friday at Best BUy
Otherwise it may be a little bit till i get the Galaxy Nexus it is hard for my mom to get time off work enough to get me there and buy it!
Anyways thanks in advance.... I looked thru this forum couldn't find the answer... Am I dumb?
sry if this is somewhere already
Nobody really knows
So there all just speculation?

Tell your mom you want her to switch you to Verizon.
No one knows. Thats why theres like 10000 threads about it.
When it comes down to it you can always import and use ur T-mo SIM. If I had to bet I'd say you could buy it unlocked in the USA soon enough as well. Doubt T-mo will pick it up subsidized but we'll see.

It means if somehow the unlocked version doesn't get launched here right away and you really want it, you can import one from Europe (paying extra) and put your T-mobile SIM card in it. It'll be expensive and I wouldn't recommend it if you can wait.

Doubts Verizon will see this before T-Mobile? Was that seriously just uttered? T-Mobile hasn't even announced this phone on their network, much less thought about a release date for it. Yes, it's on Samsung's site as it being available for T-Mobile, but at least Verizon has announced officially that it will have the phone and before the end of the year. T-Mobile ... not so much.
a lot of tail some diseases lots of enemies and maybe child support and divorce! but as for the new nexus...I believe VZW is the only us carrier getting one this year. if u want it on another then its over 700 for the small size 16 or possibly att tmo next year.

You can't really blame the price on Samsung. It seems high because the US dollar has lost so much in value. The actual cost in other currencies is basically the same as previous Nexus phones when you factor in VAT.
I think the GSM/HSPA version will be sold unlocked at launch in the US too. It is a phone for developers so they will want to make sure developers can get it.
OT: greatest thing about google+, I can easily mute thread that aren't useful (like my post).
I just realized I qualified for an upgrade since april. I was thinking it was in augest.
Anyway, I wanna buy a new phone. I really don't want to sell my epic because I love it and I just want a new phone to keep on the side and not to actually use. So my number would stay on the epic and I would get a newer phone for my music and games and stuff. I don't think anyone would do this but I am lol I need my keyboard.
So I was thinking gs3 or epic touch.
But just incase I have to pay an amount of money that I don't have and I would have to give up my epic to get a newer phone would sprint buy this phone from me for a reasonable price? Like let's say $100?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
I think Sprint will give your around $30-35 dollars.
You will get much more if you sell it online or some such.
You can use your upgrade to get a new Phone, probably around $200, and just not activate it, and then you can keep using your Epic.
Thanks said, if your Epic is in working order, and has a clean ESN, I would give you $100 for it.

Ya I was thinking I may sell it online. And I also have an extra battery for it. Its the same as its stock one.
I'm going to go to the sprint store sometime soon and see what phones they have there and what they offer.
if I have to sell my phone to get a new one I may sell it for about $100. Ill let you know if you want it. And yes its in perfect condition I don't remember dropping it not even once and everything works.

The upgrade discount is only valid if it's activated on a renewed contract. No activation means no discount.

After you activate a new/upgrade account, that phone must remain active on that line for 6 months. (might be 3) This is why I use GVoice. I have 4 lines and me and wifey trade up renewals with 2 of the lines.

Sprint doesn't allow buy backs of any of their devices which have dirty ESNS. Corporate retail employees who do this sort of thing can and will be subjected to disciplinary action of up to and including termination of employment. I know this personally from seeing about half a dozen of employees in our DM's market promoted to customer. You have to remember people that Sprint has a report on just about anything you do in RMS and are able to drill down to employee ID level.
They wanted to give me $60 for mine when I upgraded, but I decided to keep it and try selling it for a little more private.

That's exactly why I don't wanna have to sell this phone I just love it lol.
But seriously if I get an upgrade I have to use that phone for the first 6 months??? I can't believe that cuz they can't just tie me to one phone. What if I bought another phone I'm not allowed to use that?
I was really wanting to buy the g23. But I think the epic touch wouldn't be bad either. And its 100 dollars cheaper. But its a shame that both the epic and the epic touch cost 100 with a new contract lol.

On the box it's called the galaxy note 2 so it has something to do with the galaxy line. OP, Sprint won't drop the price for awhile. Maybe never. If you want it asap then look to other dealers or buying it used.
I doubt there's going to be a price drop on the Note 2. Not till the Note 3 anyways.. You guys are comparing a phablet to a phone. Price drop for the GS3? Sure, you can already get one practically free..

It's true. If you can't afford it at a certain price then don't buy it. But that's probably why they want to see it go down in price, because they can't afford higher price. Nothing wrong with that. Plus I saw an article that said s3 and note 2 aren't far off in costs to make. In the end the reason for price difference is the cell company trying to make more money cause phone is bigger. I guess it could cost them more but either way just look at the prices for the note 2, started at $299 for new customers, about 3 months and new customers were able to get it for $99 from Amazon.

Lmfao so many people talking about the stupid prices of this phone. 3 things I have to say to ya.
1. Yea, it's a $600 its expensive.
2. No, we do not have to act like children to get what we want. Your not 9.
3. People. There's people out there who simply cant afford the best things in life. Some not even a peace of bread. Consider your self lucky to even own a phone. And stop trashing on other people who cant.

He's not making up anything man. It IS called a phablet. Yes it's a phone too but it was designed as a tablet. I know the word phablet sounds really stupid but that's the chosen word I guess. How many phones out there have an SPen or have the features ours has? Think about it. Our device already does more than the gs4 ever will and once we get all the new software it will be even better.
Btw op watch the prices on Amazon.com. I got mine for $199 and I've seen it go as low as $169. It's different almost every day.

FIST OF ALL this is NOT an offer to anyone. I am NOT trying to use XDA to sell my phone. I just need some advice on pricing. The whole point of this is to upgrade to a different device.
I am trying to sell my t989 to get an HTC One S from swappa but I see that everyone who is trying to sell this phone isn't getting lucky. So i just want your opinion on the pricing. It's rooted and has only been used for 2 months. It also has the original box and charger and no scratches what so ever. It has lived in a box. I was going to ask for 250 but I don't want to post it officially yet. What do you guys think?

You can get around 200 on craigslist I have sold 3 myself before. Ebay you can get 250 or more sometimes from bidders as long as it's in great shape and with clean esn. Not blacklisted by tmobile.
