Motorola CLIQ/DEXT

Will you guys buy the upcoming Motorola/T-Mobile phone featuring Android w/ MotoBLUR UI ??
Price of it isn't established yet.. although rumors says it will be for free with 2 years agreement! Seems to me its too much of a phone to be giving away.. pre-order starts october 19th can't wait to check this one out

Def not worth trading for the UI tho its Specs are improved that's really a deal breaker for me

good topic, but should this even be in the dev section?

199 w/ 2yr btw;

I thought they said it was $200 with new activation or 2 year contract extension. $449 without contract. If it was $250 without contact or free with a contract I would snatch it up.

Stericson needs us to donate to his cause!

I'll probably grab one for the extra ram and it's a good looking phone

No number row on the hard kb could be a dealbreaker for those who spend a lot of time at the console...

Atleast the sliding mechanism looks more solid than the G1's mechanism. That's not saying much though.

samehere, gonna stay with G1!!!

I'm gonna wait a few months and see what kind of feedback it gets and when the price goes down some before I make decision. I've been disappointed from the past few Moto's I've used, also the fact I just got a MT3G.

Change...
hi there!
i´ll probably take a closer look on the upcoming tao (sholes)...
it has much more improved specs!
or the LG GW620 (etna) if it is available at vodafone germany
but this one? no thank u!

£30 Expansys Free Vouchers w/HD2, Any Ideas On?

So yeah I bought my HD2 from expansys, and they give you £30 worth of vouchers to spend at there site, I was thinking I would get some sort of screen protector/hard case kinda thing, can anyone recommend a favourite or any good ones?
The Site

be aware if i recall you can only spend £15 at once ie need two separate transactions (buried in the terms and conditions). one of the reasons i didn't buy my HD2 from them.
Check it tho, as it may have changed since then (but i doubt it).
EDIT: and you can't use it to buy memory cards, USB flash disks and some other things!! cheeky if you ask me

The screen is made of tempered glass so it shouldn't need a screen protector. Im using the leather case that was supplied with the phone and find it quite good for what I need. I would like to try a flip case though.
If you don't mind waiting they will also be releasing a car kit, stylus and extended battery for the HD2 in Q1 2010.

Got mine from expansys as well and i got two 15 pounds vouchers as well, so far i have used one voucher getting this case Proporta Mizu Shell for HTC HD2 (Charcoal) http://www.expansys.com/d.aspx?i=192253 This case looks good have a look

What's the story?
Sent From My HTC Evo Using Tapatalk Pro!

a pictures worth a thousand words .
phone fell off seat in movie theater, like 2 feet from ground..

was it naked?

I cried a little inside when I saw this picture..

without a case ? ya

sorry.
I hate how badly HTC tempers some of their phones [screen that is]
I remember when I got my first TP2, broke screen on first drop... I had a replacement,... That I still have... I treat it like trash! And lemme tell you this thing is sturdy. My Evo... Has been abused, dropped, fell straight on the curb of the sidewalk (right onto the raised part and onto the floor). Only visible thing is a tiny dot of glass that chipped off the lower bottom right.. This one is sturdy as hell too...

this was my first time dropping the phone, I only had it for about two weeks.
The screen is like scratch proof but not shatter proof, it should be the other way around at least (hopefully both). I tried using my keys to scratch out a hole in the glass so i could take it out and see if i could get a replacement glass but the keys wouldnt even scratch as hard as i tried

i died a little inside when i saw that picture. if that happened to my phone...i would probably cry

Dang that really sux. I was so scared when I dropped my Evo at work from a height of 30 ft and lucky for me I just had sum dirt in the kick stand but that was the day I added insurance on my bill. I'm sure if u have insurance they will give u a new screen as there was a time with my instinct I broke the screen 3 times in a month and Sprint fixed it no questions asked

@ the PIC why put a 500$ phone on a sent and EVEN take the chance of it falling ?

That sucks man . Well if you don't have insurance, they sell replacement touch screen digitizers on eBay. Not sure how easy it is to replace.
http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-Sprint-Evo-...862017?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4152abc101
I have no affiliation to that seller, just looked up the cheapest one that wasn't out of the country.
Looks like some guys just put up a repair video too and it doesn't look too difficult, but I'd be scared to do it myself lol.
http://www.repairsuniverse.com/htc-evo-4g-glass-touch-screen-digtizer-lcd-repair-guide.html

Most sprint repair stores are stocking glass/screen replacements. Just go down there and get it fixed, generally they can do them in 15-20 minutes

actually im within the first 30 days, so im taking the phone back to a store and swapping it for a brand new one. which seems like a great deal to me.

if you are rooted you will probably have to unroot... but you already knew that

I just flashed back to the stock rom i found in the evo wiki, that should be good correct ?

Good luck man. 30 days or not they're probably not gonna just swap an obviously damaged phone out for a new one. Not saying it wont happen, just.. good luck!

You should be good with that. In my experience I've had no trouble taking rooted devices in to them. I always make sure at the very least it appears stock when they power it up.

I called them and they are the ones that suggested i just return it and get a new one since it's within thirty days. I called the store too, not sprint (sometimes they like to contradict each other).

ATTENTION!! Radio Shack is paying you $150 for your Nexus One

This is a joke, well i guess it is more like an insult to the intelligence of Nexus One owners, i wonder how many would actually do the "Trade IN".
So for the ones who don't want to read, yeah you get $150 for your nexus one, this sounds worse than what car dealers do.

I used to switch phone pretty often until I got nexus one 3 months, and I don't switch phone since then.

In there dreams! LOL

They must be on crack if they think im going to sell them my pride and joy for $150

I work for radio Shack and they would have to pry it from my cold dead hands. Also they probably wouldn't want mine considering " bad mother Fu<ker " is engraved on the back. =D

this is what we called stupid population... radio shack is filled with nothing than morons and run by them.. if i see or hear anyone doing this trade.. they have to be crack dealers and needed of crack.. cause no smart person will do this..

I would give them a bricked nexus one for that, but that's about it

I would trade it for $300.
And next time learn how to resize your attachment before you upload it.

I remember my cousin threatened to break my N1 and I was like then you'll owe me like 500 bucks...he was like "please, a new iPhone 4 is only a bit more than 500 no way your phone is worth 500"
granted he was right....on e-bay and craigslist the lowest price I saw was 400...but still...that's 9 months after release and still worth 400 USED...
amazing.
150 is an insult...I

You can do better - they are going for between $350-$400+ based on condition and original packaging/accessories on eBay.
Am waiting for the new MyTouch HSPA+ to come out. If it is a decent device and not too locked down (although thst will certainly be dealt with here), then and only then would I consider letting go of my Nexus - and certainly not to RS.

Ok buddy!
Does anyone have their customer service email? I would like to write them an email laughing at their ridiculous offer! hahahahahahaha

never letting go
I have the G2 now but i love my N1s.. both of my N1s!!!

I'd never sell my n1. The fact that it's pure android with no manufacturer ui, it gets updates the day that they come out, and google basically made it to be rooted, are all priceless features no manufacturer is willing to replicate. The Nexus One is one of a kind for now.

WTF ATT!!

So I got my phone today and low and behold I have some serious (at least to me) blemishes and scratches on the back. Some pics below. I know they may not seem too bad but come on, this is a brand new phone, and unexceptable if you ask me. So I actually go to my nearby ATT store to see if they have stock already so they can swap it out and they don't have any yet. You could see it in the eyes of the workers that they hadn't seen one yet. Borderline oogling over it.
Anyways, they say call ATT and they'll send me another. I call and low and behold they CAN send me a replacement (not overnight mind you, I'd have to pay for that), but as I had to remind them, there is a backorder for it so they couldn't tell me when I'd get it. All this time I wouldn't be able to activate the phone. I say screw it, I'll keep it but you gotta give me something here. All they can do open a customer credit report and see if it goes through. Suffice it to say.....I'm pissed.

Yeah this is a total case of WTF. Must have happened in the flashing process when they added all their carrier crap.

Wow. Was it shipped in bag full of rocks?

Thats how mine is from GPlay! Not as bad as yours but the same type of marks.... Seems like it was slid around and there was a bunch of dust/debris in the box on the phone.. I called them up right after I saw and they were gonna set me up with a new replacement but there is a problem with there system with that apparently...:roll eyes: So I have to wait for them to fix that then get in contact with me to set up the replacement... Im using this one in a case in the mean time but it definitely shouldn't fly to get one that looks this way!

Looks like someone was skate boarding on it before shipping. Lol I would return it. There is no fu#king way I pay over $700 for a screwed up phone.

Probably happened while they were tattooing that sweetass globe on the bottom. Well worth the sacrifice, IMO.

I would try blast them Motorola and ATT on social media. No way you fork over that much cash money for A defectove unit. I also suggest you QC the camera carefully. It may have got the lense.

Motorola QC issue.

I was at my tmobile store when they unboxed their demo unit and it had the same nonsense. We considered that maybe they just purposely sent the ****ty ones to stores for demo purposes. Hope this is not a widespread issue

That's what you get for purchasing a phone from the devil.

They would have touched it last when flashing their splash screenand doing the logo on the back. But a previous commenter said his gplay device was the same. I would look at how the phone fits in the retail packaging. Does it have room to move around at all, is what i would be looking at.

I think it has some room to move because there doesn't seem to be anything keeping it in place or anything protective it has to sit on. Its just sitting on indent of the phone with the documentation. I think it happened during shipping possibly especially if it was man handled it could bounce around and scuff up but idk? i don't see how sliding on cardboard could cause marks like that.
Im also still waiting on Gplay to reply and fix there system to get me a new replacement...

Did you have any issues getting AT&T to initiate the return? This is ridiculous, mine has this too.

AT&T wouldn't have done it themselves, just semantically speaking.
They would have made a deal with the OEM (Motorola) to make the modifications on their behalf before packaging.
Not defending AT&T or anything, of course.
