It's a silly thing about a $100 non activation fee. I cant get samsung to explain what its doing in my account and why it only shows up for Sprint and T-Mobile not Verizon or AT&T preorders on samsung.com
It's kinda just a PSA for people that have orders and didnt notice it OR people that havent ordered yet.
I dont know if anyone knows a contact at samsung to ask about it because customer service at samsung.com is worse than clueless.

Hmmmm, that's not something we usually would cover, mainly because we can't verify this just on one account. We would have to see if this is more widespread.

Even more pathetic are the people who bought it, If they had took 2 seconds to search google for "HD2 Android" they would have an abundance of instructions for free.
Yeah You right

Yeah You right. This is not the place. But i have mentioned why i bought this thing here. Second! perhaps you don't care. But some people of XDA working hard to do this stuff for free. And someone selling their hard work for own interest. So may be they people have some serious care about this. I am sorry if i have offended you.

i agree that is really wrong!!! these instructions were given to all of us for free. and now its being sold off! i hope ebay bans the guy that is trying to make money off of piracy! i would report to ebay but its not my work being copied and sold.
xda should take action!
I reported it to eBay and also posted a question saying "This information is availabel for free at xda-developers.com", which will appear at the bottom of the page.

Questions only appear at bottom of page if the ebay seller chooses to put them there, not just when anybody asks a question.
Oh...... Fail. lol
I don't believe xda needs to care about..
--
People buying this on eBay are most probably not too tech savvy and this can have a positive aspect as well :
-redundant questions will be directed to the seller and not (again) in anew thread here
But if somebody feels bothered by this, the best way would be to pm the buyer with the link to the free rom, this will most probably lead to a bad seller rating on eBay..
I personally don't mind, if I can sell something for $ although it is available for free, I am a lucky person then (or the buyer not too bright)
Maybe I should sell some air in a jar,- have some around here..

Xoom arrived from the Motorola 25% off order!

Just got my Xoom from this deal!!!!
1 day shipping delivered before noon as promised. =)
Hope you all get yours soon too!
Also, I forgot to place the order for the free case. What are the odds I can call CS and have it shipped since I purchased during the promo? Anyone else have luck? And what wording did you use if your were successful. Thanks!
And to the guy who posted the thread about this deal - Thanks, you really did help this community flourish. =)

No offense, but you couldn't have posted this in one of the 25% threads such as this? As to your case question, it has been asked in that thread the I just posted. One person was able to, some others were not able to get the case, you can call and try, but you already got an awesome deal.
40 pages + of thread and information is hard to salvage, but appreciate the proper post etiquette.
Just wanted to let everyone know they are shipping and getting received. If mods feel this thread is useless then feel free to delete =)
Thanks for the know about the case. I wasn't going to push it but thought I'd ask.
FedEx or UPS??? I'm still waiting.. 2 Day delivery ordered on the 24th..

Why don't you use some of the $200 you saved to buy a $30 case? The people who got in on this deal seem so ungrateful.

Desire HD stuck on HTC screen

Hi to all.
I just got a HTC desire HD from a client ant it's stuck on HTC screen.
Unfortunately I an kind of new in the android world so I would like some help please.
Thank you.

Is the client paying you to fix the handset?
Ehm, return to htc? Problem solved, close this tread.

Wrong section.
If your being paid then maybe offer money for help outside of xda, making money off the help people give for free is immoral.
However, it sounds like a bootloop. Has the client been flashing/rooting?
Search the forum for bootloop.

That matters, why?
@OP: Take battery out, then put in and turn on while holding volume down and let us know if you get a white screen with writing on it.
Look for S-ON or S-OFF. If it says S-OFF then you can fix this really easily.
Edit: As everyone is say "ZOMG CLOSES THIS THREADS OMG I AM TEH AWESOME!!!111ONE!!!!1111ELEVENTY". If some mod comes and closes it, because you dared to ask for help. Then feel free to PM me.

Where in this thread do you see that? Who said there awesome, and what does "1111ELEVENTY" have to do with anything.
If you're not willing to help people. Then don't spam up threads in which you're not willing to help in.
If the guy is getting paid, then good for him. He didn't come here and say "Client is asking me to fix this for money". You came here enquiring about money.
If you're so desperate for cash, go do something productive with your life.
Sorry? Have I offended you?
Spamming up threads? That must be what I'm doing with my time these days then.
As for doing something productive, you know virtually nothing about me, nor how much money I earn. If I was desperate for cash I'd probably have a "Donate to me" button next to my username and spam up threads.
I apologize if me asking for you assistance made other people argue but I am just a employee in service that repair mobile phones and other electronics. Witch means that I am not paid directly by the client. My kind of work might make me discover other solutions to other problems I would not have any problems sharing them to other people without caring why they need it.
I am sure that everybody in this forum works somewhere and many of you in the mobile business so many of you are being payed to do this.

You sir are pure win.
I don't know what's the point of the whole argument.
A guy posted a question asking for help on how to fix a client's phone. Who knows how many members of the xda are community are working on repair shops, who of course ask for money in return of their services?
If you're not willing to help then do yourself a favor and quit bashing the guy. Don't act as you're the only all-knowing guy who could fix his problem.

There is no need to apologise as you have done nothing wrong, aside from posting in the wrong section which wasn't a crime last time I checked.
I was never my intention to turn this thread into an argument, nor do I think I did. I never bashed the guy. If you read through 99%+ of my posts I do try to help people. Not act like an obnoxious child.
We (the community) would need more information to help you. Do you know how to access the bootloader? Did the client tell you what had happened prior to this problem. Has he/she rooted / modified the handset.
HERE is a similar thread from the info we have so far. The problem was solved. Try following this thread to see if that solves your problem too.

It turned out that the owner of the phone had been playing (flashing/rooting) with the phone.
So yes it was a bootloop and I fixed it.
Thank you for your help.

[Q] Nexus 4 importing to India

My friend is sending me Nexus 4 as gift.
a. Will I get Google Support after sales in India?
b. How much would be the custom's tax?
no warranty support in India
Gifts should not have tax when importing to India

Sorry. This would be dutiable given the customs assessed value. 2.06%.

In India, again we might have a different value, something like say 25k approximately.
So, this 2.06% is on the USD rates or on the INR rates?
Thanks a lot for the customs info.
All questions belong here in Q&A not in General so please post in the correct sub-forums going forward.
Thanks

the rate at which it was bought

Hi,
If you want me to walk away and look for help somewhere else, let me know. But I'm new to this one and don't disappoint me straight away on my first day of xda-developers page.
If not, do unregister me from the forum. I wouldnt mind at all. I would look somewhere else

I actually just found a Reddit thread where people have successfully emailed LG and received the promo. I just followed suit with a email to LG. Will report back my results. This may make my day.
Seriously use the search function...there's already a thread that was made the day it was announced with all the info that is needed ....

Hopefully that wasn't directed at me. I just replied to this thread. Looks like the OP deleted his original post.
So who/where do you email to try and get this promo if you already bought the phone?
