Call them back and explain the situation. Might have to prove you paid for it. Also try and find out what kind of fraudulent activity.

I'd try go to the cops and see if you can return the phone to the user it was stolen from, as well as see if they can go after the guy you bought it from to recoup your money.

see if they will exchange it for working phone in the T-Mobile store.
But I somehow don't buy your story. Blocking IMEI is good protection against thieves.
Depending on the situation it can take weeks for an imei to get blocked. It doesn't matter how you got it, matters of it was paid for it not through them ie first payment default or stolen. Tmo will not unlock it. You need to call the cops.

Bad luck? Really? You allegedly chose to purchase a top of the line phone for full price off of Craigslist instead of the T-Mo store. Why in the world would you do that? Something does not make sense.
Anyway it's nice to see that if my phone is stolen, I can block anyone trying to use it. A person in one of the threads who claimed to work for Tmo said they can't really block phones. Guess that poster was wrong.

Bummer dude, if T-Mobile said it was stolen then that's all there is. No way to change that, they block the IMEIs of phones that are reported lost, stolen, and phones on EIP (Equipment Installation Program) that have stopped paying. Best bet is to unlock to AT&T and sell it. I got mine in a trade for my note, but made sure to get the receipt even tho it was a previous customer of mine. Called T-mobile and immediately to have it registered in my name with IMEI to make sure there was no EIP in place. Next time run the IMEI, ask them to go into a T-Mobile store with you instead of meeting them at McDonald's. :angel:

What is not to believe? I bought mine off CL too... I didn't want to extend my contract, I have 1 more year with T-mobile then I'm switching to something else (but that's another story). If I bought the phone from T-mobile it would have cost me like $330 + tax - the $50MIR + get locked in to T-mobile for an extra 12 months of service... I bought the phone from someone - Yeah, I paid a little extra, but I have the option of LEAVING T-mobile in 12 months - AS I PLAN TOO, for a cheaper monthly service - so TO ME it was worth the extra up-front cost.
I'm not defending the OP, I'm defending the idea that its shady to buy a high end phone off craigslist or NOT from the dealer. Just because YOU think its ok to FINANCE the extra balance and cost of the phone instead of paying up front for it, that's YOUR CHOICE (or the OP choice) if not then that is also THEIR CHOICE.
I have bought several iPhone's - ALL FOR MUCH MORE THAN THE CONTRACT DISCOUNT PRICE because we have been on T-mobile which doesn't offer the iPhone so the only way to get the iPhone is to buy out right. That might make me stupid, but not shady. :good:
All cellphone carriers in the US must sell phones at their outright price. I just bought my S3 from VZW at $600 full price...Why didn't you just do that?

Yes i jus picked mine up at my local sprint they had limited inventory 6 in total, but i was there when the doors swung open. Man I can't wait to fully explore this device
I got mine at a sprint store as one Best Buy said they would have them and after calling a few times yesterday including 5 min. before they closed and they didn't get them in yet. So i went to Sprint.
I didn't see it on the website around midnight, but saw it earlier today. Just placed my order in through telesales a minute ago. The reason I didn't get it through the store, is because i'm OCD and want a screen protector on it before I start using it.:silly:

I was waiting at the Sprint door this morning when they opened.....along with a couple of other guy.
Got Mine with the Samsung cover.. Sweet.
I took my wife to a different store this afternoon to upgrade her iphone to a iphone 5.
This second Sprint store said they sold out of the Note 2 within the first hour.
So...Now I have a new Note 2 and a new iphone 5 for side by side comparison...I tried really hard to convince my wife to get the Note,
but she had to have the iphone.
Man I can't get mine until Monday hope there are still some left

Its so small, yet noticeable. Paid the full price for the phone, but I'm thinking if I take it back, they'll think I did it. Just because its there, its driving me crazy. What would you guys do?
http://i40.tinypic.com/1zxl14z.jpg
Basically, I'd like to know if I should return it. It's so small.
If you got it from an authorized retailer and you've only had it for a day or so I would bring it into the retail store and try to have it switched out. Call them first, be honest. Hopefully somebody decent will help you out or get authorization from a manager.
It will help if you have some sort of print out (order tracker details stating delivery date and time if shipped or receipt if bought in store) saying when you bought or received it. Call multiple stores until you get the answer you want. Be somewhat confident and aggressive that you paid good money for the phone and you deserve a minute t condition decide upon arrival.

It depends on who you bought it from. If you boutch it from a retailer take it back they'll replace it. But if you didnt you may have a hard time returning it, much less getting a replacement from the same person. Thats why whenever I buy something ie ebay/craigslist/amazon, as soon as I get it I take pictures of it, with the same days newspaper in the picture so it validates the date. and i make sure they have pictures of it before the package it.

Good point. Hopefully I'll have no problem. I'll report back. Is quality control on these phones pretty bad?
I don't think so I purchased an AT&T version and a tmobile version both were perfect. I haven't seen any complaints on the forums, although a few they seem to be very few and far between. Good luck I'm rootin for the little guy.

Update: Ok I went to the T-Mobile store and they really hesitated to swap out my device. The girl had to call her manager. She did question if I did this, and I told her very humbly that I did not. She was like, well you had the device for 10 hours. Her manager then agreed to let her swap it out.
New device seems fine. No nicks on the bezel.
Hell yea buddy. I was very persistent with them and finally they sold me an sm_s900t with no service plan. It's funny though, I'm actually cancelling my att service tomm and headed to a T Mobile store to start using them as my new wireless carrier. I had no idea that their data plan was so good until today. Peace ATT. I've been with them for 5 years and I still pay 110 a month for my current plan. Better plan for $40 cheaper on

Exactly my scenario. Using TMO on an unlocked att iphone 5S, they sucked. Using a TMO GN3, it's a whole another story. I'm using the $70 prepaid plan, but plan on porting my two att lines over soon. I am so sick of AT&T's locked boot loaders, and them throttling my data every month. What pisses me off the most is not everyone on the old unlimited data plan gets throttled. I was really shocked to see TMo LTE light up in so many places today. With one bar, I pulled 25 down. Yea att is faster, but who cares. Now I won't have to monitor my usage with my unlimited plan.
Yup that's the first thing on my to do list tomm. Att who? Never heard of em.
Should be no problem returning it
One of my buddies, we'll call him " Butterfingers" dropped his brand new T-mobile Note 3 2 hours after opening, while sitting in his room. It fell and slightly dinged a corner. He went to T-Mobile the next day and they overnight a new phone for him, no questions asked. LOL
Glad it worked out for you.
I've been searching for one for a while now, but I can't find anything. Samsung told me I had to get one through Verizon, and Verizon said I have to get one through Sammy. Unless they aren't selling them anymore, someone has something backwards. Do you guys know where I can snag one up if they are still for sale?
When I called on Thursday they said they are no longer available. But someone stated they had 83 units left. I found one online used and just pulled the trigger.... Getting sick of my iphone.....
Bummer. I've been looking online for a while now, no such luck though.

Just went through the same thing. Samsung's help was just about worthless. I was continually told Samsung doesn't sell phones directly. Finally went through the business department. Because the phone was shown on their site but not available as of 8-7-15, the business rep first tried calling the warehouse to see if anyone knew if it would be available in the future. He got no definite answer. He was going to send an email to corporate and let me know when he received a reply. I was told it may take a week for an answer. The issue may be that because the Note 5 was soon coming they may not restock. My problem is that from I can see from Note 5 leaks, the phone may not have the features I want, ie. removable battery and sd card. Because I like my Note 4 and it has a verifiable good root for the developers edition, I was going in that direction. Two months ago, I had a chance to buy the de phone from Samsung. I was certain that the team at xda would get root and held off. Boy am I sorry for not buying when it was available. Well, we can only hope that our team here will get this working on our retail versions.
I'm looking at selling off my mint DE version since I'm leaving my Unlimited Verizon account. Is Swappa still a good way to get the most resale for now a "unicorn" like the VZ Note 4 DE? Was considering that or eBay, but worried about eBay hassles. I'll then pick up a T-Mobile Note 4 to put on Cricket.
Can I buy it?

Hi, so today I have received my G4 back from being away for around 2 weeks for repair after experiencing the bootloop however now the phone doesn't boot into android. When I turn the phone on it shows the LG splash screen but then shows a logo for miniOs and shows a blue screen saying "Factory Reset Status" with a number 2.
Is there anyway I can fix this or do I need to send it back to LG for another 2 weeks?
Thanks
If I were you I'd be incredibly pissed and call them back as soon as I can. They're supposed to fix the phone, not return it broken. I bet that "fix" cost you a few hundred dollars too?

Luckily it was under warranty so it didn't cost anything however still very pissed, also their website doesn't allow me to email them as it constantly says search for model even though the model is already in. See a few reports about LG UK repairs being ****.
Not LG's fault but when it was being delivered it was suppose to arrive yesterday but the delivery came earlier and ignored request for it to be delivered to neighbours.

I can't be bothered with LG anymore. I bought it from Amazon and they will take it back and refund me the money. Now I am ordering Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. Done with LG for good. They really have gone the wrong way about customer service. How can you expect someone to buy a phone for £450 and ask them to wait 3-4weeks and not offer replacement.

If its bought outright, they try to repair before replacing.
If you're on contract you get a replacement.

Maybe different where you are. Its not like that with either Samsung or Apple where i am. Apple does not have official stores here , they operate through resellers. Who offer extended warranties. If you have one of those you will get a replacement. Samsung i'm not sure will do this.
The kicker is after one year is up, nobody cares. Just one year warranty where i am.
is the main reason you want a replacement that you do not have a back up phone ?
My back up phone is a blackberry and I can't keep switching from one to another every time LG decide to give me another broken refurb phone. Which is locked to 5.1 probably because Marshmallow is a phone breaker for LG. Anyhow, don't care now. Samsung arrived. Good riddance LG. Wont be going for them anymore. Good luck to all of you with bootloops and issues with service centres. Life's good without LG in my pocket.
