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 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 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.

iphone possibly coming to Sprint....umm, who's gonna leave Android for this?

Check this out....

There's no doubt that the iPhone will have to come to Sprint in order to compete in the market. (Wait I take that back, unless the FCC allows the destruction of the market)

I most definitely, will not.

I would go back to cans and string before buying anything made by Crapple.

It would be good for my wife. Needs something simple for basic things like taking pics, videos, music, phone calls, etc.

I agree with you. I would get it for my wife as well. She has an Optimus S now which is her first Android device and she's still figuring out to work it after having it for 3-4 months. her phone is basically stock...smh lol.
She was in love with the iphone 3Gs but I convinced her to switch to Sprint so that I could get the Nexus S 4G and possibly the Evo 3D...lol.
But yeah, I'm definitely not getting an iphone.

I MOST DEFINITELY will be switching. Without I doubt in my mind. I went from G1 > iPhone. The only reason I switched to sprint is because of the employee discount. It would feel good to go back home...

If they add LTE to the version coming out later this year with a bigger screen ill definitely consider getting one. **** loyalty to a brand I like my phone to work.

This makes sense and it will be interesting to see how this Android v Apple battle plays out when the iPhone is available on every major US carrier. I had an iPhone in the past and while its a fantastic device, its not the phone for me. My wife may be interested though...

It would have to have a 4"+ screen and android being boot locked and watered down for me to consider it.

Wouldn't even consider it without a 4"+ screen.

With a bigger screen I'd consider it, I have no loyalty to Android.

Samsung GalaxySII models for AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint break cover

First off I feel this warranted a new thread altho we have some very similar.
But this provides more solid info that what I saw we currently have.
Merge if needed.

So while we reported yesterday that the Samsung Galaxy S II won’t be heading to Verizon, the silver lining comes in the fact that the three other major wireless carriers will indeed be getting their own models. So, the big question regarding whether or not Samsung would take the previous path in releasing these new models, in creating different looking devices for each carrier has been the question since the beginning. Thanks to Pocketnow, we can finally say that we (may) know what the handsets will look like.
There isn’t a lot of information going around here. In fact, where the above image came from is anyone’s guess. And because of that, we may want to take the above leak with the normal amount of salt on hand. We’re not sure if these are the final devices for each carrier, but we imagine that it’s certainly possible. So stay tuned, as Samsung’s event is just around the corner and we’ll have all the details we could ever want (hopefully).

Keyboard (a good one, not some PoS without a dedicated number line) is make or break for me. That's why I chose the epic over the other decent phones w/keyboards out there to begin with.

Sprint usually keeps the premium phones around the $199 mark, so I wouldn't expect this to be any different. No price has been announced, but I would expect that price point, but certainly nothing higher than $249.
Me personally, I'm waiting for details on the Nexus Prime to do anything. By then, the Epic will have GB and other goodies to go with it, and the SGS2 will already have ROMs etc associated with it. I have to rely on my phone quite a bit for business, so I'm not too eager to be an early adopter. I want to ensure all the small kinks and quirks with the SGS2 are worked out before I jump on it.

Nice to see confirmation of the design in the previously-shown pic that we assumed was Sprint. Looks like a solid design. I'm going to have a real problem deciding between this and waiting for a Sprint Nexus Prime variant.
Also, thanks for citing your source instead of merely ripping off an entire article as your own.

When the SGS1 EPIC came out it was $249 and then after the 2011 the price dropped. I hope they start out at $199 cause im just gonna add a 3rd line to my account to buy the SGS2 and give my son a phone! My wife will be taking my EPIC...

I'm sorry, I have to brag about this

I just struck gold.
So, I recently bought an as is transformer on ebay for about $150. I really wanted the parts from it to repair a TF. When I got it, the first thing I noticed was there was not a scratch on there. The thing looks like new. The serial was a b50. After I charged it, I decided to turn it on and saw that it went right into apx mode.
So, I nvflashed it. OMG, it works! It's working flawlessly. I even restarted it several times to make sure it wasn't in apx bootloop.
Apparently, someone bricked it, thought it was dead, and sold it for parts.
Just thought I'd share

lol congrats bro, thats always good

Nice find.

Damn you made out like a bandit.
So what are you going to do now? Salvage it for parts anyway, use it? Sell it? I'd sell it and get another tablet so I'd have two different tablets. I'd even put that money towards an iPad 2 or an iPad 3 just because I want to try an iPad.

Love those days..

Actually, the seller said he got it from someone else. So, this thing has gotten passed around to a few people before it got on ebay. Impossible to find the original owner, I guess.
And why in the world would this thread get a 1 star? Who the hell gave me the 1 star? It's not like I'm scamming anyone.

I know. This was just an extreme luck thing. We all here knows that apx mode looks like the thing is bricked. A tablet can go into apx mode automatically if there's something wrong with the bootup. Most people out there don't know what apx is. So, I'm assuming someone thought he couldn't turn this thing on and so went ahead and sold it to some shop which ended up putting this tab on ebay.

Great find!!!

So...... Ill start the bidding for it at $200.

Probably some one who's jealous or could be the the Ebay seller.

Thats fantastic luck! congrats to you!

My device has appeared to be bricked a few times, doesn't boot up, connect to PC and its not going into apx mode but tablet is still warm so something is running. had to wait for the battery to completely deplete before it would turn back on with screen working. Only happened with one certain custom ROM though.
Good thing I had patience to wait it out or I could have been that sucker to sell it on e-bay! Congrats.

That's awesome! I used to scour craigslist and ebay for "bricked" devices and 9/10 times they're repairable.
Maybe it was the seller that rated the thread 1 star? haha

it just amazes me that with ALL the info available on the tf1 that they couldn't figure that out. serves em right if ya ask me! congrats my man!

You are a lucky man! Did the person post a picture of the device? It would probably be safe to assume, that if a seller posts pictures of a pretty good looking tablet and selling it for parts, it's more than likely bricked. However, the chance of getting that lucky is probably slim

My Sad Nexus 6 Story... (aka First World Problems)

So I am now going to be without any Nexus 6 at all....
I was lucky enough to purchase a 32GB N6 from Motorola on the 12th of Nov and I received it the 26th of November. I was loving the phone but knew I really wanted a 64GB version.
So, before I received my 32GB one from Motorola, T-mobile released them on the 19th of Nov and I jumped on a 64 GB version, only to be swallowed by the backlog vortex!
So fast forward to this weekend, I had been using my 32GB and loving it but couldn't wait until I got my 64GB, which arrived on the 19th, but since I was out of town, I couldn't get it until Sunday, the 21st.
I set it up, decrypted it and started to use it. So Monday night, I put my 32GB Nexus 6 on Swappa and it sold in a couple of hours, I was super excited as I got what I paid for it and I now had the 64GB phone of my dreams!
I then began to notice the camera had issues and problems....
I was seeing "snow" in the view finder and now I can't get the camera to load at all...
I call T-mobile, hoping they can help, but nope, no luck. I can get a refurbished phone, or I can get a new phone but since it is on back order, I have to wait another 6-8 weeks.
So I am returning my 64GB phone to t-mobile for a refund. My 32 GB Nexus 6 is sold and being shipped today. So I am falling back to my HTC M8. I'll try and buy again I guess, but not until next year some time. Sigh... I went from 2 Nexus 6 phones to 0 in a 12 hour period. :crying: And I guess the $80 in accessories I purchased for my N6 will have to go on a shelf until later.
Enjoy your phones guys! And perhaps, as you read this, you'll send some good thoughts to the phone gods on my behalf!
Happy Holidays!
-Jason

WoW man that sucks, glad I haven't had to go thru that. I wouldn't know what to do in that situation. Just glad I don't. Hopefully you'll find it available in Christmas. Just remember to keep checking every Wednesday. Or if your going thru T-Mobile hopefully they'll get some in,
