Can't tell if this is a serious questions...
You win an item on eBay by... winning an auction or buying it at a fixed price....

easiest way is to not use a toolkit.
install nexus drivers
adb environment -> bootloader -> fastboot oem unlock

What's the toolkit name ?

Just do it the right way.... Read Jubakuba's sticky.

How is the S III development on AT&T ?

I placed a order for the S III since Verizon can't get my area straight for the nexus. So I was hoping to see how the development was going for the att brand ?

Are you the Guy over at Thunderbolt whose TB bit the dust?
Haha welcome, I think more GalNex owners had the Thunderbolt than any other phone, we just got hit so bad with waiting for ICS, none of us want that wait and uncertainty ever again.

Been playing with it all day, getting a feel for phone and battery. Ive git a 2350 battery in it i believe, and life seems pretty good. It did update to jb, and im amazed how fast phone is. If i had a good secure wifi tether, id almost not root, lol! Nah, i gotta see what this thing will do. Really liking so far though.

Should i update radios? Runnin liquid now, no 4g.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Do yourself a favor and if you haven't yet already learn adb and fastboot command lines there is no need for a toolkit for this phone. And to answer your radio question unlike the thunderbolt any radio combination works on any ROM you can update or change radios to see if they help you out but it shouldn't matter if you're getting 4g or not. Plus these roms never include radios..well from what I have seen all the radios can be flashed separately through the bootloader or some people have made flashable zips containing them.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
1. Get Gnex
2. Root/Unlock
3. Flash new radios
4. Flash new bootloader
5. Flash new ROM - I would vouch for Codename Android with Faux's kernel
that's my recommendation plan
Brace yourself, flash addiction is comimg.

Where should I sell nexus 4?

I have a nexus 4 that I won from a raffle. I have already had one and prefer my galaxy nexus more. I want to sell mine but I'm not really looking to jackpot gain from it. I would rather sell to someone that would use it like we do. Or develop for it. Any one know of a forum or site that someone may be interested in? I know the marketplace or whatever it was here is gone. Any popular forum I'm missing?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Craigslist, swappa, eBay, toms hardware forums. There are many, many sites out there.

200 I suppose.. I won it in a raffle.. So I'm not really looking to be one of those guys selling it for like 500 . eBay and craigslist I knew of but like I said I would rather know the person buying it is going to root it and take advantage of devs hard work. I'd rather sell for 150 or 200 like that than be a douche
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
If your going to sell let me jump in and say I'd love to buy it. haha
If that guy doesn't want it I'll give you $200 for it.

For future reference, there's a community started by XDA members after they closed the market. CTO for short, or cell trader online.

Wasn't meant to be sarcastic, was just asking if it was something you'd considered. I have a car charger and spare USB lead at work so can charge my phone if required so assumed others would be the same...

What happens if I update..

I'm on a custom 4.2.1 ROM . if I update through Google will I just lose root and data or will I brick?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Its quite simple actually. Being on a custom ROM you can't upgrade from Google
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
Can't meaning your phone will not only brick but also totally explode. The self destruct is hidden in the battery along with nfc.
Unless you've got a silk cover on your battery.

If sarcastic remarks are what you're expecting from your experience on XDA, you may want to consider reevaluating the quality of your questions and/or posts that give rise to those sarcastic remarks. For reference see here: http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html.
