Hopefully this isn't against the forum rules.
I'm looking for someone, I bought a T-Mobile Galaxy S2 from you off Craigslist yesterday. We were supposed to meet up today so I could pick up the box and accessories but I realized now that you don't have a phone anymore, I don't know how to reach you. You gave me your XDA username in case I needed to reach you but I'm an idiot and forgot it.
If you see this, could you PM me so I could get the box, the case piece, the receipt, charger, and extra battery from you?
Thanks
LOL and good luck.
If he sold you the phone I doubt he's in these forums any more.
Hercules Hercules!!
Do a search for his name...lawl missed that you lost his name.
this is literally the good'ol "looking for a needle in a haystack"
good luck buddy
i hope you haven't pay him yet
Yep, hope you didn't pay yet. Sounds like you hv the phone already though?

Lol, well, I paid him already.
But I do already have the phone, and the case, and the extra screen protector.
The box/receipt/extra part for the case/USB charger/extra battery seems like a weird thing to rip someone off over.
Heh, maybe I'll wait until tomorrow before I go nuts. From his XDA user name I found his Twitter and Google Plus accounts and contacted him on all of them. He's pretty active on XDA.
On the downside, he did mention when I met him yesterday he was leaving the country on Saturday....
On the other downside, he did mention on his Twitter dropping his phone and it slipping under the wheel of a car right before I bought it from him....
Lol. You're kidding right?

If there's one silver lining to my situation, I suppose it's that it seems to be bringing joy to the people of this thread.
Sadly, everything I stated is true.
Wow, this story just gets better and better. Lucky for you, you can always do a warranty exchange if something is wrong with the phone.
Good luck!

ahaha classic man! >.< well atleast all is well then. XD
Even though he sold you his phone, didn't he keep his sim card? his number should be unchanged...... unless he just totally went off the radar and decided he didn't need a cell phone anymore or switched providers without porting the number.
so my phone was stolen.. and the thief is texting me (im using my brothers phone) he swears he is all big and bad.. so can everyone SMS bomb this number please just once ******* please ! sorry for asking but i feel like its appropriate since the thief stole it from my little brother. Thanks guys

I do believe if sprint can prove you knew phone was stolen you may be responsible for charges and If a police report was filed they will know and may try to charge as it's your responsibility to disconnect asap
Oh but have fun

use plan b from the market. you can remote install. then find the phone and kick his ass
If someone stole your phone, why did you give your number out over the internet? You're going to report it and get it shut off tomorrow, but you want to sms bomb him tonight? This makes no logical sense if it were true. If my phone was stolen, I'd immediately get it shut off and get a police report for replacement purposes. You know who has it, why don't you get the cops to get your phone and press charges?! I call bull**** on this story!

Hello, today my baby just got stolen by a bunch of ********! somehow after an hour in gym at school, i look and my phone isn't there. I called it and it sounded like a jerk *****. Anyway, i tried to install Plan B but looks like he shutdown the phone or that my stupid gps isnt locking like it always does because of ICS! is there any chance i can track it? I'm a prepaid consumer so insurance is impossible.
You should call the cops and tell them its an iPhone 5 prototype and I'm sure they would get a swat team involved like they did last time.
If Gps isn't working it looks like you might be out of luck bro.

Invest in the app on play market called gotya I swear it works they try and open your phone and put pin a wrong key bam takes a silent pic of them send it to Facebook and sends you a location GPS spot in your email that you can give the police then you get your phone back

OMG LOL!!! the guy who stole it told me ill never get my phone back. now after i went home and tried to install stuff, the school called me and they told me they found it in the floor. Looks like the guy didn't like Face Unlock! in his face!
What if they know the buttons to hard reset the phone? I mean its not really that hard but the only thing you can do now is call tmo and let them know what's up. Get a police report and file an insurance claim through ASSurion. Assuming you have insurance.

98% of people who own a smartphone are complete buffoons and really don't deserve to have them. The only reason the average Joe gets an expensive piece of hardware is to have bragging rights. Most iPhone users don't know what a jailbreak is nor do android users know what a root is.

I think my girlfriend is going thru my phone when I'm in the shower, going to grab and bite to eat, or anytime I leave my cell phone around that gives her the opportunity to look thru it. BTW..I'm not cheating on her.
Is there an app out there that will log when someone uses/unlocks my phone and or sends a pic of her when she tries to access my phone. I don't believe in unlock passwords, cause I have nothing to hide.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!!

You could always clear your recent app history and check it when you think she looked at it unless she would know how to clear that. Then you would know what she opened too.

Get the app with the password but give her the password. Set that app up but use nova launcher to hide it. Give her the password upfront but just tell hr you want a secure. But in all honesty, crazy girls like that are hard to deal with. Unless you're very patient and love her you might want to reconsider. I once got in trouble for two girls talking about my small ears in Korean on a subway. Though I am Korean I don't know the language but my crazy gf at the time did. Un****ing real the situations you can go through with women like that.
...
Best advice is ask her.
Yeah people lie, but if you have nothing to hide she should have put that together by now. If you've proved trustworthy and she still has issues then talking about it would be far better then trying to bust her looking for something that isn't there.
Wife and I have open phone policy. Look at it all you want.

This is by far the best idea, simple easy and free.
Another option would be starting a logcat > logcat.text command (can't remember thr exact code) and that will show the screen go up and what apps are loaded and such

Use face unlock. It's not as telling of suspicion as switching to a pin code, but if you're having to assume she's snooping, as opposed to blatantly picking it up in front of you and cruising around it for sh!ts and gigs(my wife) , then it stands to reason that she's not going to confront you about it, if you just decided to use a "nifty feature you like on the phone"

So my phone fell in water in the street (chicago) so I gave it to someone to dry for me. First I rinse in clean water (again) cause i didnt want it to smell like sh!t after. They put it in rice and i think in the microwave( i dont even know why-___-) and now I have no 4G or WiFi. Any ideas?

Microwave metal == VERY bad idea, phone or not.
I would try to get all the water out, shake, blow etc. then set the device on top of something mildly warm such as a cable box, maybe a computer. Patience is a virtue.

That did escalate quickly. If you might have noticed (at least this is how I read the OP), the OP is not the one who put the phone in the microwave to begin with. First sentence was "He gave it to someone to dry." Second, right after the microwave was brought into the play, he states that he didn't even know why it was put in the microwave to begin with.
Thank you for ending that particular discussion.
To the OP, as far as damage to your phone goes, I will have to agree that there is still definitely some water damage. I would do my best talking with Sprint to see if you can squeeze a phone out of them. I've done it in the past with water damage. Good luck to you.
