[Q] T-Mobile Demo Units? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if/when T-Mobile puts their phones on display in their stores? I would like to purchase the Nexus 4 from Google on the 13th, but I'd like to play with it at the T-Mobile store first....will they have it on display before they release it in the store?

I just got back from my t-mobile store to switch sim cards. I asked them about the Nexus 4 and they weren't really sure what I was talking about, then it clicked with them. They said they didn't have any but I don't have any, but they do is my thought. They can't say that though. She said that they will have some though in a couple days.

Come on, the below thread was created just a couple days ago and was right below yours. Read before posting.
Hell, even the first full sentence is damn near identical...

Couldn't get Sale Price
I just called and they said they were regular price $19.99. Did you use a coupon code or something? Thanks.
Nope. Just walked in and asked if they had them in stock. The lady said yes, told me they were on sale and led me over to them. Maybe its only in certain stores??? That seems weird though.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
its funny cause of the three verizon stores in my area none of them have ever had the battery doors. they all seemingly have no idea what i am talking about. -_-
Guess I got lucky? Or their just morons if they don't know what a battery door is. Are you going to a store or a kiosk??

Kichard, I called (611) and was given the $19.99 price. I will check with some local stores today. Thank you.
Definitely could be in store only.

In for a white one please
you can find all on ebay shipped free for about $11. other colors as well.. bout a white and a black one and they both fit really well.. old one was beat up a little..

I checked the verizon website and they don't even show up in the HTC Incredible accessories list: link
Must be in-store only. I know my store was clearancing Incredible accessories a couple months ago, so that's probably what your store was doing. It probably heavily depends on whether or not your store ever had them to begin with (which many did not).
To summarize, YMDWV (your mileage definitely will vary, just created that myself )

Has anyone bought from Amazon Wireless

I was wondering if anyone used Amazon wireless before? I just joined verizon using Amazon and bought the gNex. As we know the cdma version has many bugs,and you might get a bad one. I asked them indirectly about replacements eetc and they said they don't do it... What do I do now? Any specific wording I should use when I call again?

I noticed they have the Samsung Note for $249 for new customers. I wonder if they'll match that offer at the AT&T store?
Anybody know??

I've never bought any phones from them, but they are notorious for great return policies. I'm sure that carries over to phones as well.

Amazon is probably better than Verizon at return policies.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
I've bought two phones through Amazon.
The first was the Rezound on Verizon for a penny, the second was the Amaze for T-mobile.
Know that they WILL charge you a fee (I forget what, maybe 150$/250$) if you cancel within 6 months of, buying the phone.
I did however, have an issue, with the charging cable that came with the Rezound, and Amazon wireless was very nice and replaced the whole package (phone, cable charger....) immediately.

I bought a Nexus S 4G from Amazon Wireless last year when I was trying to figure out which carrier worked best in my neighborhood. Unfortunately, it wasn't Sprint, but Amazon Wireless was amazing throughout the whole experience. They took my return with no questions asked and I didn't even have to communicate with Sprint at all--Amazon took care of everything during my 30-day trial period.
I bought my Nexus through Amazon wireless and I've sent it back to Verizon for a replacement. No hassle, just bring the phone into a Verizon store and they will check it out for you.
Not sure if you are asking for a complete refund though, never had to do that :/

Sell my Nexus S?

I really want a Galaxy Nexus for AT&T but I'm currently in a hard financial state. If I was to sell my device which is in good condition aside from a small scuff on the corner, how much should I sell it for?
I'm still not sure if I sell right away because I might wait for the new nexus so the price drops. I'm just looking for a good reference on price so I can ponder it over. Thanks in advance to anyone who offers help.

When I was looking for a sprint one (which i since decided to cancel my contract shortly and go prepaid but thats another story lol) I was able to find a few for ~400 or so. I've seen a couple online retailers selling for ~450.
I haven't even seen any used ones though. Which kind of irritates me as that would probably be the only way I could get one. Seeing as I prefer to buy locally and not have to be without a phone for any major period of time.

Yes and no. Sprint sells them for $550 new. So online retails selling @ 450 are actually selling lower then sprint. Believe me I think its stupid too. This is one of the many reasons I'm ditching sprint in September/October and going gsm/prepaid
350 on the play store new when I'm only selling my phone for 130-150. Lol. I don't have that kind of cash to front at the moment.

All Nexus 7 come with the Transformers movie?

I just ordered the Nexus 7 today and was just curious if the movie was only to pre-ordered tablets or if it came with every purchase.

Sorry to revive this old topic but instead of making a new one this one actually fits my bill, I am about to buy a nexus 7 next week and I would like to know if I buy it this month do I still get the $25 google play credit and the movie and books?
Thanks

I didn't receive the movie nor the $25. This is probably because the machine isn't officially available yet in my country (Belgium).

That is my biggest fear since I live in Brazil, so I am thinking of asking my parents in the USA to buy the Nexus 7 activate it there for me and buy what I want then whenever it arrives in Brazil I would not have any region specific problems.
Well It's not like it's a stellar movie so I don't really care much
Is there any way to watch it on a computer? I assume its streaming, so it would likely know what device you're using.

Visited two AT&T corporate stores in NYC today. They have the demo unit, but no stock to sell, even though the demo unit has pricing, etc. listed next to it. One employee actually told me it was for sale today and I said "I don't think so, but I'll take one in black" - he came back and said he was misinformed by a co-worker and it will be available on 10/4. This was the flagship store in Times Square. I also visited the small store in Rock Center where I work and was told 10/4. Mind you, employees at both originally told me 9/27, then 10/1 and now 10/4...

If you can, try the AT&T corporate store in Jamaica part of Queens. They have white and black unites in stock, and also a demo unit for you to try it.
I'll chalk that up to different markets. Our display doesn't go up until the 3rd for launch on the 4th.

Wish I could, but Jamaica, Queens is a long trip from mid-town
Looks like most of these employees got confused with when they get the actual stock and when they get the demos.
Just called the same 5 ATT stores I've been calling and some said the 3rd and 4th and some said the 1st still.
It's the 4th for the southeast.

I am not sure why you posted this information. I went to the store and they didn't have any, even after confirming with me on the phone they had phones in stock.I posted my frustrating experience here.
