Says you now have a choice on who to return through, Samsung or the carrier/retailer. That part is new too. Should help those who were having a hard time before.

I called into Samsung and they told me I must exchange at Verizon. They are not allowing me to exchange through them.

"FREE" causes a lot of issues with a lot of consumers, mostly with expectations. Plus, the "freebie hunter" crowds, the kind that will bring 50 coupons to the grocery checkout aisle and buy groupons to places that they already go to every week (and are cheap to begin with) are horrible customers.
Just adding the penny makes a world of difference.
You can't do that can you?

Yes. You're entitled to return your device if you're not satisfied with it within a particular period.
Just make sure that they cancel your contract as well.
Amazon has been pretty nice with their return policy, I have returned items that doesn't have issues but I wasn't happy with. I just wrap up everything neatly as possible and usually get full refund minus shipping.
I know there are many people on contract, but for me I wouldn't even pay 1 cent and enter two years contracts. You have to pay double ETF if you need to change carrier, one to Amazon and one to the Carrier.
Early Termination Fee (ETF)
If I terminate this Agreement before the end of my Commitment, I will pay an ETF of up to $325 if purchasing certain specified Equipment (e.g., Smartphones) OR up to $150 for other Equipment for each tel. no. associated with my service as indicated in the Terms of Service.

Hello everyone,
If you don't know today is a bad day for Samsung Galaxy Nexus owners. If you haven't heard yet Apple Inc. won a preliminary ban against all Galaxy Nexus sales in the United States. This is bad for all things android and I have created a petition so hopefully all of you will sign it.
Also please share with your friends and family and everything else. Don't let this go unanswered.
http://t.co/c97hudxY
Also if anyone can make a picture or something for me as a logo that would be great.
If you have any suggestions on anything I should add to the petition please tell me.
Here is another petition for the same thing.
https://defendinnovation.org
I feel your annoyance but I'm way too cynical to think this will have any impact on Apple at all. Just shake your head at them and grab a beer. There are lots of other petition worthy causes out there.

Can't be mad at Apple for exercising their right to go after companies who they think infringe upon their IP. In short, deal with it.

What really burns Apples ass is that Motorola used to make the Apple CPU (power-pc/G5 chip) and now Google owns Motorola
No petition will even raise an eyebrow, let alone get anything done.
This is how Apple does business...if you can't make a better product, keep them in court.
Apple definately spends way more in lawyer fees than it does on R&D.
This petition already has over 6,000 signatures. I would sign it. https://defendinnovation.org/

It's also creating a belief, among the ignorant masses, that Google just copies what Apple created.
Works out for them both. The real losers here are Microsoft and RIM.
BTW, AFAIK the patch won't give google any of the 96M. Only proof that Apple wrongfully accused them can do that.

Dang. Looks like I held too long- was thinking of buying a gnex..
Seems like there is a consensus there are two reasons they stopped selling the gnex:
1. Update
2. because of the lawsuit thing.
As far as I understood the lawsuit (but im no lawyer) its a ban against samsung directly selling the gnexus while other vendors (VZ, google, etc) still can. truth? (if so why google play not selling it)
And is the update for JB then? Or did I miss some big news? Why not continue to sell it and upgrade prev models to JB OTA unless to build suspense/demand for it
EDIT: Found a good news article describing the situation. " Apple, as you might imagine, posted the bond quickly, and the Galaxy Nexus was pulled from the Google Play store and other online retailers" apparently the ban applies to all stores but there is hope!
"According to a report from AllThingsD, Google and Samsung have prepared a software patch for the Galaxy Nexus that should resolve the patent infringement on which the injunction is based, allowing the Galaxy Nexus to go back on sale."

The guy who sold me the Note 3 was into custom ROMs. When I mentioned Knox efuse and trade in with Jump he said no one there would even know what to look for at trade in and that flashing should be fine. He said the same thing about warranty returns. The insurance company would just take back the device.
But...he did mention that trade ins with Jump would end up as refurb devices. So its possible that there might be someone along the repair service chain knows whats what.
I traded my note 2 in today, running tweaked rom and custom recovery. Still got $275 for it. A lot of the phones get wiped and reflashed without even being checked to see if they were tampered with
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk 2
I couldn't believe they were offering so much for the Note 2. I almost dumped mine. I'm selling it to one of my employees already. Only 300, I wish I didn't commit, I would have sold it today, instead of waiting a month for my money.

Note 2's probably going to go on sale like the s3 did when s4 came out and s3' were selling like mad because the price drop so maybe they want to have refurb stock to offer in case demand gets high and they run out of new note 2's due to a sale on note 2' s

When processing a trade in the only things the computer asks is
Water damage
Does it turn on
Is the screen broken
Is their physical damage
They also gave me $275 for my Note 2. JediX19. They didn't care at all.
$275? I wish I wasn't such a nice guy sometimes. I ended up giving my mother in law my Note II.

I don't think the eFuse matters unless you're getting it warranty repaired by Samsung and even then, they may not bother to check if there's no custom ROM running. Most people don't know about it or even care. I sent a Droid4 to Moto for warranty repair and there is something similar (it may or may not be the same) that gets flipped when it's rooted. They didn't care and repaired the defect.
Just found this thread Googling for the same thing. I was told by the guy at the T-Mobile I went to that they don't care at the store when trading it in, but he's not sure what would happen when it got to wherever they send it and see it tripped.
Basically what happens is if it is tripped your rights to the extended warranty are revoked going forward. You won't be able to add the extended warranty or jump for 12 months plus you pay out of warranty fee.

I'm a tmo rep and so far they've said nothing about checking anything but the screen and water damage etc, I've also traded in 3 different phones that were rooted and custom Rom and all and never heard a word from Samsung or whoever the traded phones go to. Plain. And simple lol we don't care what you did with your Phone. I've also sent an s3 I. Under Warranty Last Year Without Using Triangle Away And There Were No Repercussions. Cost too much money and time to check every phone they just basically reflash and refurbish and send it back out
