Getting it by the 23rd, hopefully on the 21st. I'm hoping it's no later than that because we are SICK OF WAITING :mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Had the same problem myself when ordering a SGS2 earlier this year. I finally got it to go through by transferring the money into the PP, making sure all the info was correct and then PP'ing from the PP account only.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rashad1:
I owe PP money so they want to get paid before I send any money
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mysterioustko:
Update: Just to confirm what someone else in this thread posted. I called Handtec this morning (thank you Google voice for cheap international lol) and they confirmed to me that they are expecting their shipment on the 23rd and hope to ship orders out the same day. A bit disappointing :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wite:
Yeh cause when we call them on the 23rd the answer is probably going to be "We are expecting the shipment on the 1 dec and hope to ship out orders the same day" :(

But I know this aint Hadtec´s fault, why cant Samsung give their re-sellers and customers some straight answers about the release date.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KiNG OMaR:
But so far both handtec and clove are agreeing on the 23rd... Only time will tell :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mysterioustko:
Well according to the guy on the phone they knew they'd be getting them this week (hence the "week commencing the 21st posting). They were hoping to get them sooner but this is around when they expected to get it. Apparently this is par for the course with the other companies like Clove too. Everyone seems to be expecting they stock around that same time too. So I'm hoping by this time next week I'll have my phone. :( ....and to think I was hoping to have it by Thanksgiving.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KiNG OMaR:
AWESOME NEWS :D:D:D

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Q.Entity:
Clove sent me an email... Phones are shipping tomorrow...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qnet:
I 'm happy for you guys. I'm very tempted to buy one from hantec but, at this point I probably should wait. By the time I get it Verizon may have a release date.

If I was still with T-mobile I would have ordered this phone as soon as I could. Heck, I wish I would have ordered it anyway, with the first batch but, I missed it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rock7632:
I got the same email from them. I ordered mine on Friday morning around 11:00 est
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x.Orville.x:
thinkig off buy one on hantect uk to Puerto Rico :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BiGMERF:
Gnex en la isla del encanto !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x.Orville.x:
Jajaj y tu piensas comprarlo ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ejkeebler:
Curious why people are still buying phone outright in the states? Last I looked was for the N1 on t-mobile, basically a subsidized phone plan and an unsubsidized phone plan were almost equal when it was said and done....i could understand if you plan on selling your phone every 3 months, but if you plan on keeping it 2 years, what gives? I know I'm missing something, but what?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nyijedi:
Where did you find this out? Is there a note somewhere on their website about this, because I can't find it. I've been holding off on importing the phone because of my fear of having no warranty, but if this is true, I may order from Handtec.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] and932:
That's the problem that I'm facing now :(

I am eligible for an upgrade for AT&T but I don't think AT&T will be able to get this phone on contract. I was thinking of buying an iPhone 4s and selling it to fund my Nexus, but I've never done that before and don't know how hard it is to sell a new phone for full price.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Its because phones like this don't come to the carriers. For example the Galaxy Nexus probably won't be coming to carriers other than Verizon (at least for the foreseeable future). So our only option is to buy it unlocked.

Also, for those of us on T-mobile, we get a monthly discount for staying out of contract and bringing our own phones. There are also lots of cheap prepaid options (Simple mobile and AT&T/T-mo prepaid) if you bring your own unlocked GSM phone.

I'd say most people buying unlocked just want the phone and aren't going to wait for carriers to pick it up. Not everyone is out of contract either, so they're buying it full price either way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ejkeebler:
That makes sense. The tmobile discount, i didn't find to be that much? like $10 a month over 2 years is only $240 so for a $700 phone, you're really paying $460 instead of $300, but getting a phone not provided by your carrier makes total sense...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theearthisflat:
just ordered mine a couple of hours ago from handtec ill let yous know
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mysterioustko:
Well speaking for myself, I constantly buy and sell phones. I started the year with Sprint using an Evo, then switched to a Nexus S, then went to a G2X, then went to a Sensation, and now I'm going to the Galaxy Nexus. I decided when I bought the Sensation though that, that would be the last non-nexus device I would buy. I'm tired of the manufacturer overlays now and think I'll be sticking with pure android experience. It's sad that my single core Nexus S runs as good as and sometimes better than my dual core Sensation. But to make a long story short, since I change phones a lot and sell them for pretty good prices, it really isn't very expensive for me to get a new phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
The non-contract prices for T-mobile are $20 cheaper than contract prices. And like I said, if you are on pre-pay you can be spending as low as $30 a month for service.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xxmwxx:
Don't forget that is Thanksgiving and they won't be working.. After talking to them they told me it'll probably be shipped on Monday. I'll probably buy it from them as my SGS2's touch screen is completely screwed up and it takes 6-8 weeks for repair :X
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ruthlesset:
Anyone on T-mobile USA who ordered their phone(s) from handtec, can you let us know if your GN has the SAV bug?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
How would you find it? We don't use the 900.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dnlsmy:
It won't :)

The bug is only for those who have 900Mhz 2G (EDGE) connections, or are close to a phone that uses that band (like the phone is sitting on top of it). Approximately 40% of users do not suffer from this bug, and they all conveniently all don't use that frequency for 2G. No US reviewer has experienced this bug, and they used AT&T and T-Mobile. Sucks for Europe, but don't worry about U.S. (like the pun?)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KiNG OMaR:
Took me a moment to get it... :o
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ruthlesset:
:)

thanks for sharing this info.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lcrkz0023:
Actually a US has witness this bug...not sure if he used At&t or tmo sims yet tho,

http://www.androidcentral.com/galaxy-nexus-volume-bug-edge-networks-captured-video

Then hes the full review with Update at bottom

http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-nexus-review-international-version
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kindiboy:
He is not in the US...Stop scaring me lol....

One of the pictures says O2-UK. (the one with the notification slide down)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lcrkz0023:
Oh my bad! I assumed he was. Usually when i read their reviews their gsm reviews they have att or tmo sims. Good catch
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dnlsmy:
Would appreciate you hitting the "Thanks" button rather than writing a post, but happy to help nonetheless :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xxmwxx:
By the way a heads up if anyone is interested: it seems Expansys USA got them ahead of time (2 days early) and their website is showing 100+ in stock right now.. I Got an email about mine being ready to ship..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Manacit:
Damn, I'm in the US hoping handtec will ship my phone to me tomorrow. Then I need to wait for it to get all the way to CA. Does anyone know how handtec ships their stuff? I don't want to wait that long, and I don't want to cancel my handtec order just so I can order from Expansys!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Handtec is working through the night to get orders out. Someone placed an order for the Nexus today and got the shipping confirmation email an hour ago. Most people report that the expected delivery date is tomorrow by 10:30. One person said that type of fast delivery has happened before so.. who knows..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rock7632:
they use FedEx overnight it looks like. In the email FedEx sent me an hour ago it said it will be delivered tomorrow morning. don't know if I believe that but we'll see
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
they ship FedEx. If you already have a order on the books with them there's no reason to cancel and go with expanses.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Just broke down and ordered from Expansys. I feel sick and wonderful at the same time. The clincher was mailing back the phone in case of recall I'd rather do it with a USA vendor rather than a UK.

Sweet Jesus, I'm a week phone whore...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Andrmgic:
We're in the same boat, friend. I had cancelled my order with them earlier this morning for fears of the hardware defect.. but seeing it in stock now made me pull the trigger again. If they ship it tomorrow, I should get it Friday.. which would be awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lcrkz0023:
Finaaaalllly gave in huh...its just waaaay to easy to click that add to cart button. :D

Hey, i agree w/ ya bout the US vendor thing..Ultimately became reason I went with Negri.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] audi09:
750 + tax is 800$ without shipping. Thats the same price Verizon is selling it for.

The UK sites show it at 700 shipped. For some reason that number "800" is just too much for me, just looking at it says its not worth it. The most i ever payed was the Nexus S for 650 from t-mo the day it came out. :mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lcrkz0023:
Sell another phone to compensate for the loss. That may give you alittle piece of mind. Or you could always sell your soul:p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rashad1:
The Nexus S was a Best Buy exclusive and it was $499 without a contract
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Curses you meddling kids!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] assisterah:
Expansys-USA does not charge tax outside IL.

Plus there is a $20 off coupon which brings it down to $729.

It's merely $20 more comparing to import from UK retailers such as Clove or Handtec. (450 sterling is roughly $700 USD)

I'd say it's a sweet deal, plus if the volume issue exists it is much easier to return to a US retailer than shipping it back to UK.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
Unless you are in IL and paying 8.75% sales tax :( It comes out to over $800 for me from expansys USA - expansys UK is much cheaper in that instance and why I have an order in with them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rashad1:
expansys is a ripoff they're making a killing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lcrkz0023:
It sho was! samsung rat bastards tryin to cash in on the holiday season. samsung new slogan "If its broke, dont fix it"

...and yes, I have one ordered.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] assisterah:
Yeah that sucks. But you guys are lucky having Amazon tax-free. Amazon charges NY residents taxes. The frequencies of buying a smartphone from retailer such as expansys is much lower than buying baby diapers, cat food, or TVs from amazon.:p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] milan03:
I ordered mine from handtec.co.uk today at about 2:30AM, and it's already been shipped. Got a fedex email around 10PM saying delivered by 23rd TOMOROW 10:30AM $690 shipped.

WTF!??? I'm not gonna get too excited... :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rashad1:
Amazon doesn't always charge that tax
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krohnjw:
Indeed with Amazon Mom we get free prime shipping too. I will often order something on free 2 day shipping I otherwise would have made a 5 minute trip to pick up out of sheer convenience.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ruthlesset:
Is expansys USA a authorized Samsung reseller for warranty?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tomerhd:
tax

i have 2 questions :

1.if im ordering from handtec(or any uk store) to new york ,what im paying there is finally ? or someone in the way could take me more money for tax or something like that??

2.if im ordering from expansys to new york, same question..the price im paying in the site should be finely for sure?? or there is more tax somewhere...?

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
No you're all good. What you pay is what you pay. Your credit card company might charge a foreign transaction fee (some have noted, about 2 or 3%) but other than that what they charge you is your total.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oka1:
Mine Was 700-705 shipping inc from UK and Got notification it is shipping today
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I used a coupon and a cash back deal. Brought it to $715. I'd rather pay $15 and send it here if recalled than $40 and send it too the UK.

But, yes, I agree with you. Complete ripoff, crappy customer service.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ruthlesset:
Visa charges 3% and amx 2% for international transactions. I know that capital one does not charge any for international transaction fee.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nyijedi:
This may be a stupid question, but what are people who are importing this to the U.S. doing for charging the phone? I know the phone can be charged via your PC with a USB, but what about charging it from the wall? Can a standard wall charger used w/ other smartphones be used (e.g., the chargers I've been using w/ my Nexus S)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Of course. The microUSB cable is completely standardized. If you have a previous wall charger, just plug the USB cable into it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nyijedi:
Nice. Thank you. I wasn't aware if different phones had different currents/voltages even though they shared the same microUSB connection.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Its all standardized. Just the same way that you can charge from a wall, laptop, desktop, car, whatever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Emama:
I want a 32GB

but there is NO any details about the release date of 32GB make me want to buy 16GB right now...

I don't want to wait 1-2 month or longer for a 32GB but it become less attractive already
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thatguy123:
Anyone else purchase theirs from Newegg? Got mine for $699, no interest for 12 months with a Newegg credit card and free shipping! I was looking for confirmation on the build type that the first batch of Newegg phones came with. Mine should be arriving in a few days.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
There is no warranty with the Newegg GN. I spoke with a Live Assistant and was told this. It might be better to order from Expansys USA for $689 (after $40 voucher). Expansys USA said they will honor and act as the middle man for the 2 year Samsung UK warranty.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GR8CDNPumpkin:
Hello,

I am a Canadian Rogers customer and I just flashed my Infuse while in West Memphis.

Infused works great, but now it does not indicate that I'm roaming when I am. (If I go back to the stock ROM it shows I am roaming)

It would be fine except that it keeps data on while in the US and that will get very expensive.

Anyone know how I can fix this without going back to stock ROM?

Thanks!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Perpetrator:
Turn data off.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GR8CDNPumpkin:
Well that doesn't solve the issue, it puts a bandaid on it. I would like a correct fix. I am sure its possible.

Anyone?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GR8CDNPumpkin:
Nevermind ;)

As I am a noob at this, I tried what seemed obvious and flashed the Rogers modem.bin and it fixed that problem.

Thanks!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Truckerglenn:
Good to know ... thanks

GTalk is an app that is essential for me. I had to format my Samsung Epic today and tried to reinstall GTalk but I couldn't find it on the Android Market. I downloaded several APK files to my Epic but the phone would respond with "Application not Installed". How can I get Gtalk on my phone? I would appreciate any advice. Thank you.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Belt_of_orion:
Hi everybody, I'm just new here and I know I'm one of those people who keeps on asking about the same problem! I'm sorry about that.

Here's the problem, yesterday I rooted my s2 for the first time and it was successful. My current ROM right now is chekrom latest version and my current kernel is speedmod latest version which can be downloaded in the kitchenpro application. This morning I was downloading a widget in the Kitchenpro and then it was successfully installed in my s2 but it turned out that I got a bootloop. I immediately turn it on to recovery mode and "reboot" my phone. (So dumb didn't access the forums for any solutions! It was too late for me.. sigh) I tried to put out the battery from my phone and when I was about to turn it on, my phone won't turn ON! I tried to do the recovery mode (vol up + home key + power) but it won't open! I tried to open the download mode and it was okay. The worst part of it there's this grey battery blinking on my screen! I tried to flash it to my stock ROM which is KF1 but it still won't work.

Please I'm a newbie here. If there's someone out there who wants to help me, it will be much appreciated :(

Thanks!

[Focus General] redred1:
I have a Samsung Focus v 1.3 running 7720.68 mango. I am trying to enable "internet sharing" by following instructions from forums below but didn't get it to work. Here is my response to each step:

What is WP Dev Tools? Where to get it for Samsung Focus v1.3? And also, my phone is already unlocked (I can use both T-Mobile and ATT sim) so do I even need this?

what application deployment tool? where to get it?

I did this and Diagnosis app is showing-up. ver.0103)

when I do this, all I see is "GPRS MANAGER"

and then a drop-down "Select GPRS"

-> Gumi Test Bed

-> Suwon2g Test Bed

-> Suwon3g Test Bed

(I don't see option to select "System Tweaks")

No, it doesn't :(
[Focus General] valuxin:
First, download & install WP 7.1 SDK from here (Application Deployment is part of this SDK).

Next, unlock your phone (it's not sim-unlocking, it's like jailbreaking). "How to" in this thread

Then, you should install the app to your phone and only if you do this, you'll can select 'System Tweaks' in Diagnosis app.
[Focus General] redred1:
Thanks! Installed.

Thanks. I don't completely follow this. I will continue trying. All threads seem to have instructions pre-Mango update and my phone is already running Mango.

EDIT:

I found something called

ChevronWP7

- can I use this to jailbreak/unlock Samsung Focus (v 1.3) Mango phone? My OS version etc. are as follows:

OS-version 7.10.7720.68 ,

Firmware: 2103.11.8.1 ,

Hardware revision: 3.1.0.7,

Radio Software: 2103.11.8.1 ,

Radio Hardware: 0.0.0.3,

BOOTloader: 5.8.0.2 ,

CHIP SOC version: 0.36.2.0
[Focus General] redred1:
Never mind. I downloaded Chev WP and unlocked using that. Now internet-sharing works. It's amazing. I had to pay $9 for CWP though.

One more question (for everyone): Samsung Focus v 1.3 ear-peice volume is very low. It's set to 10/10 but it's still low. I know that from Diagnostic app we can increase it but I am not sure what values to set.

Here are my current values, what should I change to increase volume of phone earpeice/speaker? (not using any bluetooth or corded handset)?
[Focus General] valuxin:
You could just downgrade to 7004 and unlock your device free, and then install updates in zune:)

Ok, here is the answer:

Click Get under the Device Gain (max/min)

In the first box keep the number 7

In the second box put 16000

In the third box put 0

Click Set

Click Start

Click the home button.

Restart your phone.
[Focus General] redred1:
Oh! I unlocked using Cheveron WP already.Paid for it already.

Whoa! Isn't 16,000 too high? I mean, did you mean 1600? Right now, it's 1500. 16,000 is like 10x! Not that I understand what these values are and how they work but I just want to be sure it's not a typo before I change it on my phone. Don't want to accidentally brick it as I did an iPhone last year :o
