People do not hear me when I talk into the phone. Guessing the Mic is shot. I have the full insurance and warrenty PHP. What are the available options for replacement right now? The GS2? Or something else.
EDIT:
I actually just did a warranty exchange from my T989 GS2 to an HTC One S. Only 5 bucks.... it's a deal if you ask me.
I just exchanged my galaxy nexus with asurion and was offered this or a one s.

Just bumping this thread and asking the same question.
Power button is crapping out on me. Have PHP and looking to know what the exchange phones are.
Is there still GS2's? Or do they send GS3's or ONE S.
Thanks

Same for me. I think the power button is causing me rr's and making it stuck in an infinite loop. Will I be able to exchange it for the s3/s4 or the nexus 4?

Well there is no way they will give the S4 or Nexus 4. I do know that I was offered the HTC ONE S last time if I wanted. S3 could be possible but doubtful.
Waiting to see what someone on here says.
What I meant was for a small fee.

In Canada they are cut throat! Usually no deals on upgrades. You have to wait til your contract is up, then pay same as anyone off the street for a new phone. And if your phone dies before your contract is up....tough poop! And if you break the contract to go elsewhere, they charge you an outrageous amount.
I think its cause there's only a handful of providers, so they can get away with such crap. More competition would smarten them up. Our rate plans suck and are very expensive too.

ONE S was offered to me back in DEC as a replacement option, and that was through a warranty exchange from T-Mobile.

What I am going to try to do is pick up the Galaxy Nexus for the advertised Holiday price of $199. Plus, use this Living Social Deal, you get $50 for the price of $25. That gives me a grand total of $175 for the Galaxy Nexus, hard to beat. The Living Social deal is good for 2 more days so if you are interested jump on it.

I'd be surprised if it actually debuted at $199 now on Verizon. Time will tell there. That $50 is also only for accessories.

The great thing about going through VZ here in the US is that if the phone has problems, you can take it back to them for a new one. If in the US, you order from the UK, you get to pay $30 to ship it back, and then wait a month for a replacement.
Oh, and the LTE ! And the 32GB storage......
Well worth a few days of waiting.

Instant replacement is really the only benefit I see.
Then again, I've never broken or had to do any warranty claim on 15+ smartphones (iPhone/BB/WP7/Pre/Android) that I've ever owned in my life.
I'm going with the odds. Besides, most issues are physical damage, which is not a warranty issue.
And once you root, your warranty goes bye-bye. Yes, there is the USB jig trick, etc.

Rooting doesn't automatically void the warranty. On the Nexus One unlocking the boot loader did, but HTC still honored it for hardware issues. On the Nexus S the language changed to MAY void the warranty and the boot loader became able to be locked via fast boot. GN also says "may". http://twitpic.com/7jii6h

Remember you pay more for a contract per month costs than a non contract per month costs. So in the end, it is about the same as just buying it out right.

ummm... talk about reading issues. lol
Not sure if it has been said, if so forgive me . I noticed a few people on here that already broke/ lost their phones. If your carrier uses Assurion which I believe every carrier does, the Galaxy Nexus IS semi covered just like previous Nexus phones. I have T-Mobile here in the states, as long as you have the full PHP protection on your account you can file a claim with Assurion. What will happen is you will have to purchase a new Nexus yourself but with proof of purchase they will cover the full cost minus deductible. So, the phone is $700, you pay the deductible equivalent (130 on tmous) they cut you a check for the rest so you get 570 back. No warranty coverage is provided obviously .Just thought I'd share for those that didn't know.

Its the same if you were to go and buy a Galaxy S2 for $529 and do a claim with them , just paying the 130 deductible so if you wanted you can do fraud on any device....you only get 2 claims per year.... I'm not 100% if you have to send it back I'll find out tomorrow when I get to work, but I wanna say that yea, you'd have to send it back.

No. Carriers don't insure phones, Asurion does. Now I remember this was the policy with the N1 and the S I believe as well. Just to be clear I personally have not confirmed this myself, but a few trusted sources informed us here at T-Mobile regarding this.

That is not ture anymore. I went through 4 HTC Sensations and the current one is having issues, and they will not replace it with a different model. I've tried multiple agents and pleaded at several stores.
Well was it within 90 days or less. Its in their policy. They are probably untrained or overlooking it. I have done this on two occassions. You can always have them transfer you to retention. Or if you complain hard enough you can initiate them to look at their policy. My wife has the mytouch 4g and had some freezing issues last month. She went through two exchagnes in a matter of weeks. The Rep told her at both the store while I was there and one on chat that if she specifically had three or more exchanges for the same device within 90 days an alternate phone would be offered. It is similar to or better. The reps can't choose as it chides the most comparable phone to your current one as well as same price or more. Sometimes they offered another option. It would be worth mentioning the policy next time or speaking to a manager and or retention.

For clarification tmobile use to do that they dont always anymore speaking with retention will do nothing in terms of that we cant force it to happen neither can a manager either your given the option or not. I believe they made changes to prevent people fraudelantly doing this just because they know the policy. Best thing you can do is sell your phone and just buy a galaxy s 2 used, just find a reputable seller.

People sell their phones on Craigslist and then report it lost/stolen and file an insurance claim with T-Mobile/Assurion. They get shipped a replacement phone and your phone gets blacklisted which means it wont work on T-mobile.
Okay so I just got my gn from amazon and I was wondering if there is any way to get insurance for this device. I'm coming from a tmo gs2 and I accidentally dropped it less than 2 weeks of owning it n it got a few dents around the edges. With that in mind I can't stop thinking about a bunch of "what if's" that might happen. Lol I love everything about this phone but I don't want to end up damaging this phone too cuz we all know **** happens.lol I'm already going to buy a case. But screens can still get cracked if it lands a certain way. Not only that. What if the phone malfunctions .would I be able to atleast send for repairs even if I can't get insurance? hopefully I didn't make a bad decision. Or would it be better if i just got the verizon one instead. At first i would've gotten the verizon one but cancelling my contract with tmo, paying the deposit fee and then buying the phone was turning out to be more expensive than just buying the gsm phone. But at the end of the day if I do have issues with this one I have now. That would be money down the drain instead of being able to get it replaced if I were with Verizon...right? Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide.

Your options are go without any insurance, get phone insurance or do what I did, put it on my home insurance
Damn I just realized I posted in the wrong section. Smh
I forgot to mention. I live in the US and I have t mobile. From the little help i have gotten from searches online about the insurance. I'm getting the vibe that since the phone is not released out here I have no way to get insurance? Which leads me to the other question I had, if there's a way to send for repairs if the phone breaks.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
I am also with TMobile and because you didn't get the phone from them the insurance they offer will not apply. Not sure about the homeowners insurance, worth a phone call to your agent but usually the deductibles on H/O is $500+ so that's kind of a wash.
I purchased my phone from Expansys and according to them if there is a problem (warranty) they will support what the manufacturer offers.
Good luck and be careful.

I asked twice to make sure cuz it sounded to good to be true n he confirmed that they do cover the phone. I feel so much better now. Thanks again

Hi, just wondering if there are any loopholes that have worked for anyone in the past.
I'm really interested in either the Nexus 4 or Note 2. I love the S2 but I dont have an upgrade until Jan 2014 and these new phones are just so intriguing. I definitely don't want to pay a non contract price for these phones, but was hoping to sell my S2 and use it to buy a new phone at hopefully a good price.
Any advice?
not sure of any loop holes. most companys make sure there are none.
i say sell the s2 and get the n4. with the price being so low its worth it.
I looked up on the sprint buyback program and they'll give you $85 for the e4gt.
Well I have three phones mine wife and daughter wife never likes upgrading so I get her upgrades with mine not cheap but it works

That's at the moment. Look at the Gnex. It was released GSM first then Verizon got it, and then Sprint. I don't think Google is that dumb to cut Verizon from getting the Nexus and Sprint has gotten the other Nexus devices aside from the Nexus One.

When I got my gs2 back in April I wasn't up for my upgrade till mid may. Anyway I brought it to a 3rd party sprint store and told me we could pretend it had water dmg and in that case sprint cuts you a few weeks slack and forks over the upgrade as its cheaper for them then asurian claims sending a new phone....at least that's what my rep said to me... he's a nice guy

But if not I would love to find a way to get a sg3 for cheap. And I don't really want to add another line.

I used to always buy my phones out of contract, I would ebay my phone, get paid apply that $ towards my new phone and ship the old one out. I would usually ship the next day so I wasn't holding up my buyer.
These days I just buy from Craigslist. Picked this phone up for 240 around mid summer, I think.

These days I just buy from Craigslist. Picked this phone up for 240 around mid summer, I think.

I agree with this, I bought my sgs2 in June for $220 off contract (used). It came in great shape and working perfectly. I'm thinking I'll keep buying phones this way - just wait for them to be ~9 months old and you can get them for the upgrade price. This way if a new phone drops that I just have to have I'm always ready with the upgrade. Also if I somehow kill my current phone I don't have to worry about carrying insurance, just use my upgrade on whatever's out.
The only thing better is direct from Google pricing, which I may switch to but I will loose some coverage in my state by leaving CDMA so I haven't decided on that yet.

On Black Friday you can purchase the SIII for $50. You could definitely buy that, sell it along with the S2 and buy a note.

Wait. $50 out of contact?
or let more rephrase. I wouldn't get the $50 price because I'm not eligible for upgrade until 1/14 right?

I've heard that people sold their current phones on Craigslist, used that money towards buying out the rest of their contract then upgrade.
Or sell on Craigslist and use that money towards buying one you want on Craigslist. Either would cost around the same

I wonder what happened to calling the retention center and threatening to leave the sg2 and the countless problems the ICS update I would think would be a great bartering chip to try and get retention to let you upgrade to the sg3 either cheap or for nothing.

Hah, I can assure you, after 20 phone calls, they don't give a **** about their customers.
I've had my account open with sprint since 1991.
There are 5 lines on the account.
They have made ~$50,000 from my family.
Yea, no, I will switch to anything better as soon as possible.
