Some are basically saying this situation would be ok -

You make more money than Bob. Bob sells you something for $500 on craigslist. You pay him and there are a couple hundreds stuck together.. you accidentally give $700. You are 100% fine with Bob noticing the extra $200 and not saying a word. That is exactly what some of you are saying.. You see, if you were truly in that situation, you would want Bob to be honest.

But.. since we are now on the other side of the coin as the one benefiting, all of a sudden we make it look and sound ok with terrible rational thinking. People's philosophies are distorted because of their love for money.. Inability to see the hypocrisy of their statements.

I laugh how people can make it look ok to steal with great sounding words. Stealing is stealing is stealing. We can paint a nice awesome picture over it all we want.. but behind all the colors and behind all the ignorant philosophies of men, the truth that it is stealing still stands. It goes no where..

Choose wisely student of life..

Yeah you are right, I'm a preacher, I'm a son of God therefore I preach his righteousness.

Thats what I would do. I had a sweet Dell Axim that gained a sticky button. Called Dell for replacement. Said if I didn't return the old one after 14 days I would be charged $500 or something. I semi-forgot about it, realizing it was in a drawer close to the end of the 14 day period.

I waited to see the outcome. To my surprise I never heard anything about it. It sat in my drawer for like 3 months until I found it one day. I sold it to my uncle for $300 (with him knowing about the sticky button).

So I would wait and just play dumb. Throw them in a drawer and don't use them. They can track the phones and when they were used. If you happen to find them in a few months with no disadvantage then sell them.

Worst case scenerio is that you get a weird bill with charges and you can just call up, play dumb, and agree you thought it was weird but haven't had a chance to call it in.

I wouldn't call nothing in right now because someone looking at the account might notice it and correct the error, increasing the chance they do bill you.

He just hates what we stand for. Calling people preachers, holier than thou, church going people, etc.. it's all a distraction because we speak truth and righteousness... and they love doing things that are immoral. We are contrary.. opposites.

No one here is "preaching". We are speaking against stealing, which is on topic. Others can be for stealing and talk about it, and you're ok.. all of a sudden that is 'on topic' but since we speak against it.. we're something else now. Funny how some love the idea of stealing, we stand against it.. then we are painted as the bad people.. It is merely a distraction to distract away from the REAL truth.. and that they are the ones favoring immoral behavior.. not us.

As I said, they can paint it however they will.. when all their smoke and mirrors are cleared.. the immorality of theft and greed is still there. Their attempts at good sounding words and 'distraction tactics', which merely to try to get the eyes off of their incorrect moral behavior, it does not change the real truth that it is stealing and wrong. It just makes them feel better about it.. and a childish attempt to make someone else be the bad person.

Ever see the wizard of oz, towards the end of the movie? "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.." That's what such statements are an attempt at doing. In the ego of man, this is how it goes down - "I know what I'm advising is wrong and greedy.. but don't pay attention to it. Look over there! That man is being a preacher! (eyes are off of my immoralities now and onto this bad person.. *whew*.. that was a close one. I was almost revealed)". Hiders.... that's all it is.. hiding behind words and pointing fingers. Dodge n weave.. dodge n weave.. hide-n-seek...hide-n-seek.. point a finger there, point a finger here. Paint a picture.. tell a story.. The truth stands firm no matter how you want to spin it or distract away from it - stealing is wrong.

thats great for you. idc though....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
its matter of opinion, do whats right for u for me i would keep the device

and whats this?.... he said hes holding onto the deviced..... hmmmm. im done with this thread though
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
ya, same. kinda ridiculous to have a disagreement about whether stealing is bad or not. It's a no brainer for me..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nickolaskg:
This happened to me before. If you sell the second phone, once it has a sim card inserted it will be "activated" on tmobiles side. They will then charge you full retail for the phone.

Becareful what you decide.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] carlsbad0331:
Nothing any of us say is going to convince you to do otherwise. Simply by making the OP you showed that your level of integrity is low. Go ahead and keep it, then when T-Mobile realizes they made an error (and they will) they will charge your account for the phone. And when you dont pay the bill, they will report it to your credit report and close your account.

Let us know in a month after T-Mo has done their monthly parts audit and trace the two serial numbers to you what happens!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
Perfect! Hey Suprah.....Read this. Twice.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EmceeGeek:
T-Mobile still won't know that they made the mistake of sending two phones. They did that to me back in the Sidekick 3 days, and I ended up keeping both phones. I bought an extra battery and battery door, and sold the extra phone.

A couple years ago i bought a pair of Versace sunglasses from Sunglass Hut. I'm very picky with my stuff and the pair i bought somehow didnt sit right on me. I discovered the arms werent perfectly straight.

I take it back to the store and put the bag with glasses inside on the counter, and tell the girl whats going on. she takes out the glasses, then PUTS THEM BACK IN THE BAG.

Then she went and fetched me a new pair, and handed them to me. She did something on the computer and i left.

Half way to my car, i reach in to get my glasses, and there are 2 pair in the bag!

Immediately i went back. She's said "Uh oh something wrong?"

I said, "sweetie, you forgot to take my old ones"

She had a heart attack practically and thanked me a million times.

She said she would have got fired for sure. It was a $400 pair.

I would never want that girl to lost her job over a stupid pair of sunglasses.

Or phone....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JaiaV:
Personally, I would give it back. Whether you call it for moral reasons or whatever, it's more practical in the end. You're not likely to be rewarded for it (although it's possible), but you're far less likely to be punished than you would if you didn't (0% chance if you return it, .000000000001-99.999999% chance if you don't).

Being as the margin for error is massively weighted towards one side, logic alone dictates that returning it would be the better choice. Then again, the society we live in tends to punish those who avoid risk and do right by others and reward those who take advantage of others take risks. If nothing else, apparently the majority of your peers think that returning an item that doesn't belong to you is stupid and some kind thing only a religious nut job would do.

1) Sell it, profit now and possible pay the price later.

2) Keep it just in case. Possible replacement for your primary phone if something happens to it. Can return it to T-Mobile if they discover their error.

3) Return it as soon as possible. Avoid possible punishment for keeping/selling the phone for you, anyone who signed for it, and/or anyone involved in sending the replacement phones.

TL;DR : It's up to you. There are risks and rewards on both sides. If conscience is no barrier, then weigh your risks vs rewards carefully before deciding and go with logic instead of gut feeling. I've stayed out of a LOT of trouble (and gotten out of some pretty deep holes) by being honest.

Lmao you religious fools are so easy to get going....that's right *****es don't drop your wallet around me I might gank you from behind and leave you for dead ...

[T-Mobile LG G2x] carlsbad0331:
Things have changed... If the two boxes have serial numbers for the phone, then they will need to be accounted for when the monthly audit is done.

They will do a search for the serial number, see that they were associated with a shipping label, trace the address/account and he WILL be charged for the phones.

It matters not what is on the shipping record, as long as the serial numbers are on the box they will catch it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jsauce75:
Dude, shut the **** up. Pick up your soap box and get the hell out of here. It's Sunday, go bang some bibles elsewhere.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jsauce75:
I'd hang on to it for a month, test with someone else's sim. Wait another month looking for charges. If no charges, sell it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] S0NiX0928:
I'm not religious by any means but show so respect. Nowadays we are lucky to be graced by an individual with well aligned morals. No wonder this world is so corrupt and filled with evil intentions... everyone feels like they have the right to **** on someone else because they simple don't agree with them. What a pathetic excuse for a mentality.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] faceless:
if you care about your credit report, you'll call them and tell them what happened. don't do it for some fairy tale book, do it for your own financial self preservation.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Adj.:
Return one. Each order generates a log and if the device isn't returned you get billed the restocking fee. After 60 days non refundable.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ThC23:
This Nation is corrupted and filled with evil intentions just look at our GOVERNMENT! What better example do you want!

So corporate America can get over on people, but the people can't get over on them, common!

This tread should be locked before it gets out of hand!

OP apparently you need to return it or your credit will be shot, you'll loose your house, your wife will leave you, your car will get repossessed, you'll continue to get random reboots and freezes (even after update) and worse of all you'll go to hell!

So save yourself all that trouble and return it!

LMFAO!!!!!!!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] RevenG:
I say call T-Mobile and let them know that they sent you 2 by mistake. Let them decide what to do. But think about it, if a lot of dishonest people keep the phones from mistakes like this, do you know who T-Mobile makes pay for them? Everyone. They will start to raise rates and ETFs. If you are lucky, you will get a nice credit or gift card, but don't expect something in return or else it is no longer a good deed.

It's all of the dishonesty that makes me hate Capitalism. Thriving off of other's misfortunes and taking advantage of others to make a quick buck instead of thinking of the greater good.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] S0NiX0928:
Trust me I know all too well about the corruption that has inflitrated the American political system. I just think that continuing to propel this broken system by disrespecting our fellow peers (the people we need to unite with to overcome the corruption) is somewhat counter productive. The corrupted minds of our politicians want us divided so we cant compromise to fix the system the crooks are benefiting from.

But I've said enough, this thread is getting irrelevant very quickly lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
Thanks for the reassurance that I'm on the right path.. Your ignorance completes me. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JRudnik:
You would be a 'tard for returning it.

If they sent you two phones by mistake, its their mistake.

They probably wanted to get rid of some G2Xs because they are so shoddy.

(Just kidding. I'm using a G2X and I love it!)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] noodlev1:
I've acctually had a few things like this happen to me, twice with a bank putting money in my account once with an iPhone 3g and third with T-Mobile old mda (HTC wizard) everyone eventually caught on and sent me a notice that the money was not mine and going to be taken. T-Mobile billed me for the phone and so did att for the iPhone so just hang onto it till someone notices or just send it back. In all cases I kept all the phones so was able to return them so no money lose and I didn't touch the extra money so no big deal when it was taken back. Now I'm not saying I would have notified anyone about anything. I would have kept everything if no one had contacted me, but someone always notices in my case so I'd just keep it handy if I were you.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mac33:
You know... I hear both sides. Risk outweighs reward where I'm from. I've went back & forth with my decision. & I've come to the conclusion... Would T-mobile be so honest with me? Hell no. Prime example. My money was running low one month. My phone bill is due on the 3rd. I didn't know you had 10 days after the due date to pay it. So on the 10th I paid the bill mistakenly which was two bills together that wasn't late, when I could've just paid the original amount & been able to pay other bills with the rest of my money. Did T-mobile call me & say "here take your money back, just pay the original due amount?" Not at all. T-mobile tv. Didn't know I had to cancel that before they would stop charging me. T-mobile never gave me a credit back for my MISTAKE with that. As far as I'm concerned they owe me. To the guy who said my integrity is low, **** you! You don't know anything about me, my integrity, or what I've been through in life. Don't judge me until you know what its like to lose everything you own. Everything you love in Katrina. How did God repay me for my MISTAKE not to leave? I'm gonna hold on to it. If they don't catch it. I will sell it. Thanks to everybody who had a positive reply.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
All I can do is smile and laugh.... and then cry. Thank you for revealing to others the difference between immorality and morality. I laugh because I encourage someone to not steal, and then an attempt is made at making me look like the bad guy, with mere words. Anyone with an ounce of sense can look at this conversation and see what a joke these attacks are. You're attacking someone who is encouraging another to not steal?? Seriously? Is this really taking place? LOL. People are literally attacking me for encouraging someone to not steal? Simply amazing.. I laugh at first. Then I cry for what society has become..... Doing the right thing is painted as doing the wrong thing.. Amazing attempts. I cry for your ways.. but in the end, the truth will always always stand upright... Stealing is wrong.

These are mere words.. I'm not 15yrs old kid. Words do not have an affect on my being outside of me generating a response. "Kiss ass", I laugh. I'm called a kiss ass for encouraging someone to not steal? Gotcha.. Your reality and circle of friends: Encouraging someone to do the right thing = Nobody likes it, because it's a kiss ass.

I'm so glad I don't walk this earth concerned about what others think of me any longer. A real man goes against the grain of society, against the grain of their friends... to do the right thing regardless of what others 'think' or 'say'. That takes guts. That takes effort. That takes heart. It takes courage. Wanna know what takes no effort? To go along with the crowd.. That's what bullies do. They 'appear strong' with words because they are in groups.. but in reality, they are weak because they cannot stand up against immoral behaviors.. they are too afraid to do so. They follow the crowd and are only strong in the crowd.. They are afraid of being shamed or laughed at. That's weak. It takes a real man to do the right thing.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
People don't have to lose everything they own in order to make a determination on whether stealing is wrong or right. It isn't you that is judged, it is the theft that is judged as wrong.

BTW, I have lost everything I owned, around 3yrs ago. I still wouldn't steal and justify it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jonathan3579:
I would sell it...or keep it. Either way, enjoy it!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mac33:
Comprehend sir. I only referenced what I've been through because that dude said something about my integrity. He doesn't know anything about me or what I been through. I told HIM not to judge me. You call it stealing. I call it gaining or finding. I didn't physically go steal it from T-mobile. With that said I see your point & respect it. Thanks.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
You are not physically stealing it from TMO. But you see, you are using the mistake of someone else in error to your advantage. They sent it in error, and you know this. Then you are choosing to keep it. It's just making it look ok.. it is still stealing because you have knowledge that they made a mistake. You do not have knowledge that they gave it to you. If you informed them of the mistake, would they not say, "Thanks! Please send it back!" Yes, they would. You have knowledge that this is the case.. So with this knowledge, you are stealing.

I gave an example before about you buying something off of someone from craigslist for $500. As you are paying them, you accidentally do not see a couple of hundreds stuck together. The person receiving it notices that you gave them $700 instead - Knowledge of the mistake. Knowledge that you would appreciate being informed. What you are saying is that it is ok for this person to realize your mistake and keep your $200. They didn't physically go to your house, wallet, etc. and steal it. So if this was truly a situation that took place, you are literally saying, "I'm ok with them not saying something and keeping my $200."

If you were seriously in this scenario...would you really be ok with the person keeping your $200? I think you would not be ok with this and would want the person to say something. If that is true, then you should do the same. You can't make it all of sudden 'ok' because you're the one benefiting. It's called hypocrisy.

Anyways.. do what you will. They have a right to their equipment just as you have a right to your $200 in the above scenario..

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mac33:
The misconception is that you think that I agree with stealing. I never said that. Its not okay but it is what it is. The craigslist scenario. Is it okay for them to do? No. Yet I wouldn't blame them. I would take it as a lost & know that it was my mistake. Just like T-mobile expects me to do when they steal money from me for my mistakes. I've given people money back because they've gave me too much on craigslist. Or people that give me too much change in department stores etc. T-mobile uses peoples mistakes to their advantage all the time. I'm running with this mistakes.

I know in settings you can specify what folder to use but the album art I have isn't an actual picture but it's a file with numbers in the name located in a folder called album art on my sd card. I guess my question is how would i be able to turn the album art files into media files so I can use them on my lockscreen.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FatTony666:
Most album art is in jpg format, no? If yours aren't, maybe just change the file name to something like albumtitle.jpg and see if that works.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirtyfingers:
There is probably a .nomedia file in your album art folder. Just make sure you enable "show hidden files" in settings and delete the .nomedia file. After a reboot it should then show up in your gallery and you can use it on your lockscreen.
