[Q] How do I know the build date? - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Tried searching a few threads, everyone wants to know build dates of the new machines and I just got my Play store one in Canada today. Hopefully I can help with it if I knew what to look for on the box.
Sorry if it's glaringly obvious :S

It should be on a label at the top and bottom edge of the white box.
It should say something like 2013.06, 2013.07 (or in the future 2013.08)

Pink Housing?

Yes, pink.
I found this yesterday:
http://www.cellphonepartszone.com/Productss.asp?shopxpbe_id=64&id=685
No pricing, and it looks like an HTC branded product? BT is British Telecom, I think. Has anyone seen this housing before? I'd love to get one (it's PINK!)
This site also had a green housing as well.
Anyone? TIA!

I'm a girl. Most guys don't get to salivating over a pink phone, do they?

If a guy is secure enough in his masculinity to carry a pink phone, more power to him. Most guys I know are not that secure and are too worried what other guys will think
I am really surprised that considering how popular the Excalibur is there isn't more options for housings. There are some funky cases, but, eh.
Love this site, btw. Lots of great info and hacks on here. Maybe I'll get brave enough to install 6.1 at some point

Good job i'm secure in my masculinity and have no issues regarding the common thought of pink and a guy
Yes my Dash is pink and i'm proud, Gix you really have to stop flirting with me JK
"My sense of humour is whack but i don't care"​
hehehe... nice case
Man, pink's totally an awesome color. And I'm a guy, but for me having a pink Dash would be cool as well as being unique. I hate it when 232808 other people have the same phone as me. Oh well, at least I know mine is way better than all their's due to this site xD
And by the way, where is the price?! I clicked buy now, but I half to fill like half a page of personal information.. -_-"
The green one looks cool. I think this is a manufacturer looking for a bulk buyer. to resell these puppies. I wrote Them an email to see if they would sell me one or two sample housing to check out the quality of the housing to if I wanted to make a bigger purchase. I'll let you know if I get an answer.

Galaxy Nexus Came rooted???

Hey,
I bought a Galaxy Nexus here in Vietnam and just realized that it is running a custom rom and has been rooted. The phone was new (no scratches and had the original plastic covering the screen)... My friends here tell me that iPhones are often sold jailbroken so I was wondering if this is normal here??? English is a major challenge so I'm not sure if I will be able to get more information from them...
Everything seems to be working totally fine... just curious.
Post a screen shot of settings/about phone. Do you have superuser apk installed?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Here you go...
Superuser is installed.
Not sure why the picture didn't work... here is a link.
In Vietnam beware of the originality of the phone. It's easy to reseal the phone/box/accessoires,etc.
Definitely they sold you an used item. Go back to the store to get a refund or exchange for real new one.
Hope it helps.

I agree, the OP got sold a used phone.
yeah, i was probably used, or possibly a refurbished phone.
i head of people getting a Certified like new replacement (refurbished) HTC thunderbolt that was rooted with a sense 3.5 ROM on it.
but the phone is def. not a NEW phone from samsung. also, being rooted, who knows what kind of tracking stuff could be on that phone. i would take it back and do the rooting process yourself just to make sure.

Eh, you could always just reflash the factory image instead. That'll pretty well get rid of anything that could be installed on the phone.
Or use fastboot -w to wipe it all and then reflash whatever you want to be on it.
Assuming all the hardware works, of course.

I suppose the OP is in Hanoi Vietnam.
Do you like the food ?
either you paid a very good price and the phone works perfectly, in this case just flash a full official image. You can find them on code.Google.com
Either you paid the full price for a new one or it doesn't work or look fine, in that case I would go back to the shop and ask for a real new one or a refund

Hey guys, edit your post so that the link to the pic is off of it. As stated, you can see his other pics through that link and I'm sure he doesn't want that.

Sorry I don't want to bother the OP's life. It' that because I'm from Hanoi too and I miss My hometown.
Thanks guys.... I'm going to head down there today and find out what they say. I'm hoping that they happened to get the extended battery in too!

the GSM extended battery was just now released in the UK so i doubt it will be in stores anywhere yet
Ahh... Well they are saying that there is no way it came rooted and I'm SOL. And this is Vietnam so there is really nothing I can do about it.... Bah. Its working well so I have no complaints really.
Thanks everyone for the input on this.

If the hardware is working fine then you can just unroot and flash back to stock and you'll be all good.

What is the store's name ? street ?
or, better yet. leave it rooted and install Adfree, Titanium Backup, RM, CWM, WiFi tether etc.... Unlock the bootloader right away while you're at it (since it'll do a wipe/reset) and then go flash some roms!

[Q] I have lost my back piece of the mask...

As stated in the title, i have succeed on losing my back piece of the mask, the one that increase the signal and wireless strength... As i can't find nowhere around a new mask, nor i have seen it somewhere on the web, is anyone able to provide me with the supplier who might have it? I'm from Europe, and i need it shipped here... (to be more clear, Serbia). However, I believe this part might be build from some old phone cases (for example, i had cha cha.), any thoughts on this?
Thanks in advance...

New batch of note 7

Hi guys,
I'm planning to get the note 7. Just wondering if anyone can post an image of a brand new unit if you got one. Does it really have the letter S mark? Or the black mark? Thanks!
It has a bomb with an X over it

Mine was the canadian version. Has the black square.
Wow that's it? The black square? OK it is good to know, but those out there with malicious intent, selling defective units on the 'Black Market' can easily draw up a replica symbol on the label to pass off as new 'Safe' units.
You can check the imei on samsungs website

Unfortunately I haven't opened it or made any other observations. I sold the new one on Craigslist unopened. I wanted an exynos version so will wait to get my hands on one of those after after the dust settles from the recall.
What I did notice was that the label with the black square was on top of the original label.
So my assumption is that these units were old stock, but Samsung knew which units had the unaffected batteries and therefore just relabeled them with a new identifier(black square) to know good from bad.

Did you have to send back your affected device? What happens if you don't?

Only this letter was included in the shipping box with the new phone box.
It just tells me to drop off old unit at a Samsung store. On back side of letter it just names all the locations that i can drop it off.
No mention of what happens if i don't or no mention of any deadlines to drop it off by. I originally bought my unit from Samsung.ca.
They probably have my credit card on file and would just Bill me if they didn't receive my recalled unit

I was just fiddling around with the people edge and saw the oncircle thing.
Has anyone come across it and what are your thoughts? Any good?

Hi,
It's like ChatOn, but appears to be specific to Samsung edge phones.
The reason I posted here was to start a discussion.. I wanted opinions and if anyone knew any special features about it then they might mention.. didn't really think it needed to go in the Q & A section because I had nothing specific to ask. Just thought it was a nice touch (only useful to people who had registered for it!!)
ya i got a s7 edge and always wondered about it. my friend got a note 7 and i finally got to try it out. couldn't see any reason why it is worth using
