Trading?

Okay, so I'm about to trade my phone with another xda user. I was hoping for an upfront trade, but I live in hawaii, so that's kind of an impossibility. How should I go about doing this?

I know right xD? I don't really know him, which is what worries me ._. I'm kinda just crossing my fingers that he keeps his word. But I don't wanna count on that.

Make him pay first with PayPal. He is then protected by there guarantee. And you have the money, so you don't have to worry when sending it.

write down your IMEI code if he/she does you wrong call it in and they will blacklist it and phone will be usless to use other than a mp3 player and a wifi browser

I'm thinking he wouldn't put his money on the line if he doesn't think id already sent it. And once I've sent the phone, he could easily screw me over by not following through xP

Id still be losing out though. Id rather not send it if I knew id be sending it to become a piece of trash/paperwieght. It just costs too much to get a new phone. I have a backup g1 but... I'm not taking that out of storage until I really have to xD

An old forum I visited had a sale mediator. You both send to 3rd party (usually it was forum owner) he'd check out both, make sure all is kosher then forward on to new owner.

I did post it in the mt4g thread. I'm here asking how I should proceed with the trade, because the man interested lives in texas. I tried craigslist but people are vicious there. One scratch on your phone and its instantly an unfair trade.

[Q] How to Find Out Whether Anything is Wrong after Dropping Phone

Hello, I'm new at xda-developers, and I want to ask a question. I just dropped my phone accidentally, and I have checked everything inside my phone, everything is inside, but sometimes there might be hidden faults, so how do I check for the hidden faults? Thanks in advance.

Give it for servicing if you want but there shouldn't be any need of doing that. It depends upon from what height your cell fell down.

You can push androidlost app from market to your phone, and trace it(well, only if thief has not deleted ur google account from the phone.)
Good luck anyway.

Plan B to the rescue!

Phone your network provider ASAP! Say to black list your IMEI. I know as a fact Indian police won't help much. I will pray that you get your phone back. If you use Plan B, make sure you get the police to break in, don't DIY. Yes, I know the Indian Police won't help a lot, but give it a go. If they don't help, get all your friends together and break in. Before breaking in, bring with you some sparklers, fireworks, smoke bombs, stink bombs, car battery, bottles filled with fuel, firearms of any kind, torch, a lighter, box of matches, car, motorbikes, baseball bat, big bags to carry stuff, urge to pee (on burglars face), water, taser, laser, police siren, and a big bunch of other stuff. Hope things work out!

All you need is to tap on the GPS selection in the notification bar and there you can track it.

Yeah.... I prefer not to use it. Also just because it uses GPS doesn't mean it won't use data to relay the location back.

if the phone is rooted push avast to it it embeds it self in the recovery do even a factory reset wont remove it and it runs silent GPS via text even with new Google accounts and sim

carefully....

Good answer.

when you set up the rooted version it asks for a pin if you you flash a new rom or do a factory reset it then bring up the menu if you enter the pin in the dialer it runs under. some service name you make up when you set it up or a random one if you install it make sure you take note of the service name as when I did it it texting my wife phone stolen with GPS location silently. on my phone did not know untilled she told me

I have the same issues. The reason I did it was because I want to keep the contract as long as possible to keep the low price.
Even I choose too much data and can't change it.
Nevertheless the Wildfire S is still good enough for me.

Actually, in India, we don't normally get phones under contract, we get it in the open market, with no sim lock. (only the iPhone is available locked to carriers like airtel) As for SomeDudeOnTheNet and me, we can get new phones only after we finish college.

IMO, I think HTC devices are better. Every Nokia I have had has been junk. Not sure/don't understand why everyone likes Nokia so much.
My one v is awesome, runs great. Only issue is grip of death signal issues. Are you going for CDMA or gsm?
Also I'm not sure what the Nokia you are looking at is. If its android, check out their development scene. If its slim pickings, you may be stuck on ICS or jb for a long time to come. A few devs for a device go a long way.

I'm either going with Virgin mobile $35/month if I get this or T-mobile $30/month if I get the 620. So a CDMA 1V as It's cheaper for the CDMA model. Does skype on android support rear camera video?

Not sure about Skype, it should work though. I am on the VM 35 a month plan and its great. Signal strength is just as good as my friends with sprint phones.
I do recommend groove IP for internet calling. Its a good alternative to using up cell minutes.

I really like the One V, I really like the build quality and how it grips with one hand. Its not the fastest phone in the market but for the price its well worth it. I use mine more like an mp3 player as I don't pay for service. My only grip is no FFC. To take self portraits look to the nearest mirror and point the camera lens towards you also works for video chat that allow you to use back camera for video chat.
