I'm sure Amazon has been mentioned, but really.. they are the best choice in my opinion. Free shipping, no tax, and unbeatable customer service. I know that if my phone comes with an issue, they have me covered completely.

Expansys voucher - 40offgnx

Amazon is not selling GSM GNex. Only 3rd party sellers there. Even if does it would sell international versions with no warranty. Look at the unlocked Galaxy s2 they're selling
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
I bought from Expansys even though the GN is a little cheaper at Negri. Expansys support beats Negri's hands down. It took Negri 48 hours to respond to one of my emails and Corey respons within minutes (literally!).

When using Expansys, if you launch their website from BigCrumbs.com, you will get 4% cashback within 2 weeks. I just ordered a couple of days ago, so I cannot comment on the success of this, but I'm hoping it works...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] androidDev064:
^ this ^

on a side note, oh no I didn't know about BigCrumbs.com :-( could have saved some $$$.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
Yea, I'm surprised BigCrumbs hasn't gotten more attention here. It was mentioned int he Expansys thread; that is how I found out about it. Good way to save an extra $30...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
The price at Expansys came down by $20 today, its 2 weeks since launch in USA. I guess I need to wait few more weeks to fall with in my budget..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericc191:
Hmm.. you're right. Let's hope I get a good one. Otherwise, I'll return it and order from Expansys.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Please do not forget to confirm if big crumbs cash back worked or not and with or without coupon!! Appreciate it, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
I used the 40offgnx coupon. I do not see why the cashback wouldn't work.

BigCrumbs registered my click to expansys and I purchased 5min later. You have up to an hour between click and purchase for it to work.

They state that it takes two weeks to receive the cash back. I'll definitely report back when I get it :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MLonon:
Hong Kong version? What is that? What is the difference between that and the UK version?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] snackpants:
Well the price went down, but the 40OFFGNX voucher doesn't work with the new price point. I thought I was going to finally pull the trigger on this today. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Yeah only 20offls works now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] snackpants:
Yeah... I can't believe I am pissing and moaning over $20.00....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Yes even 10 bucks over the 600 figure seems alot to me :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Did anybody try check out using amazon from eXpansys? When I do, I see the full price of $689.99!! and I used coupon 20 off. And when I try pay pal it does not show how much is being charged to me!!! that does not look good at all!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Anybody has any ideas about this site http://wss-id.miiduu.com/Cell-Phones--Smartphones/Samsung-Galaxy-Nexus ? It must be a fraud site, they are selling GNex at $300.. But the site looks professional!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kirdroid:
If its too good to be true then its not. I don't think anyone will sell the unlocked gsm nexus for $300, if they are then clearly it is a scam.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Another let down, Big crumbs is no more offering 4% cash back on eXpansys!!! I thought I will go ahead and order but the cash back is down to 2.4%!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivagandi:
Good deal at last from expansys

Guys, found this Today and finally ordered my Galaxy Nexus!!!!

Go to eXpansys G Nex page, scroll down to see deals section, you would see GNex + $60 simple mobile for $679.99 (that's a $10 less and $60 mobile rev up card free)!!! and do not forget to use extra 2.4% cash back and $20 off. That is $660

I hope I can sell the rev up card on Amazon, if so it may fetch in at-least 50% or more!!! Not sure if this rev up is associated with any expiry or attached to my name etc, need to do more research on that. This would bring down the price to $660 - ($30-60), which is $600-$630!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mitchmoney:
Thanks so much! Around 600 after selling that on ebay is probably the best deal I found for a very reliable website! Thanks for the info!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stacio88:
So I'm finally ordering my Nexus tomorrow! Going with expansys through big crumbs. It's coming out to $740 with next day shipping. Damn taxes!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mijito6:
Hi,

So I just bought my HTC EVO View 4G on eBay, and it just came in. Now, I am interested in rooting at some point in the future, mainly because I'd like run ICS on it, and it doesn't seem like Sprint will be doing that any time soon. Either way, I'd like to be able to root regardless. Now, since I just got my View, it is still running the out of the box version of Gingerbread, with no updates at all. I remember when it first came out, along with the Evo 3D, that there were some HTC/Sprint updates that disabled root access, or that caused some problems for people interested in rooting, such as the most recent Honeycomb update for it. So my question is, is it safe to install all the previous updates and make it to Honeycomb without losing the ability to root? I know they are working on a safe honeycomb update for rooted people....but is there anything I should be aware of BEFORE I reach that HC update?

Also, I know it is for another thread, but how exactly does one go about rooting the View? What is the most recent method, etc...

Your feedback would be greatly appreciated!! :D

I'm surprised he's still not banned yet.

As for your concerns, there is a search button at the top and the desire to not make 10 threads about a same subject. Searching through them isn't fun, but neither is answering the same question over and over again. That seemed to be the main problem I saw through your posts, and you'll find the same kind of people in all forums so I suggest you just stay off the internet if you want to be away from these kinds of people :)

Yes there are a lot of "noobs" that come on here. Why? For help. Yes they can probably search google and look around and find the solution to their problem, but some people like the feeling of interacting with people and getting the answer given to them that way. Some people on here are very cocky over the internet, and in the real world they are the losers that nobody talks to, so the only power they have is on the internet. But anyway everyone have a Merry Christmas

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] twiggums:
You realize that this site was founded for and by developers don't you? It wasn't designed to be everyone's personal helper. The fact that they let all of us who have no idea how to code/cook/hack loiter here and use the things they've worked hard on is quite nice. And they even put up with crazy stupid requests and criticism at times. And yet they're still kind enough to help us out. This place is a database of knowledge that they allow us access to at the request that we follow some rules and use common sense. If one can't take the time to simply understand the rules to which they are to play by, then they shouldn't even be allowed on the playground. There's no reasons to clutter up forums with 50 of the same question rehashed 50 times over when a simple "search" does wonders.

This thread is full of hilarity though! Thanks for keeping it open Red :-)

The "search first" part teaches you to be self reliant. Sure having info handed to you is easy but then you don't learn **** and flood the forums with "how and why" threads when the info already exists.

Bingo! I liken an internet forum to a bar. You wouldn't throw open the doors of a bar and start asking total strangers to listen to you, right? You wander in quietly, get a feel for the place, figure out who the friendly people are and who the guys likely to put you through the plate glass window and slowly work from there. Nobody in here owes anyone a thing. Any help that is rendered is out of the kindness of one's heart. Therefore, it is up to you to show some respect by at least making an attempt at finding the head on your own before asking the burly guy at the door to come hold your wanker while you pee. It really isn't that much to ask when you consider what this place has to offer for those who put in a little time to find it. I don't see Apple or Micro$oft coders giving away their work for free. I mean really, you can get an entire OS for your device that is head and shoulders better than what the company that made it sent it to you with. How freakin' cool is that?:D

The post was more baseless than funny. Well not once the one who started the post told us why there was such a message from Red5.

Well we all have been a noob at some point ad have been blasted. We need to understand that the DEVS here have a life and doing their maximum for the forum. So try reading through all the posts along with Google to understand all those things told here. Then ask for help.. If you are criticized at some point in time, understand why it has been the case and work it out from there. Reactive Comments might trip you away from the right path to learning.

Just relax and Enjoy the Holidays... Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

An excellent way of saying it.

Every time I purchase a new device or am about to purchase one, I spend 2-3 days just reading through its forums to research it.

The I777 is probably the shortest time I've ever spent from forum creation to starting posting, but still I spent 1-2 days reading through threads until I started posting a day or two before launch day.

Thanks. I do the same and was reading this forum for a week before I even pulled the trigger on getting my SGSII. Still, I ended up starting a "Which is better, SGSII or SR?" thread that I could have gotten an answer to by just spending a little more time reading. Despite that noobish thread I got excellent responses that helped me decide between the two. I think it had to do with my attitude that I didn't get flamed for that thread. Noob or not, if you come in here feeling entitled, the experience will probably not be a good one for you. It's when you forget that this place is basically free and that everyone in here is an unpaid volunteer that you get replies like the OP's. This isn't the help desk or customer service, it is a forum of generally helpful people who don't deserve to be harassed because of your laziness or inability to find solutions on your own. If you keep that in mind as you post, you will have a much easier time on XDA.;)

- Close Zune

- Unlock your Omnia (Screenlock)

- Deploy XAP

I recently got a View because of those crazy sales they have had lately :)

I only use my view on wifi and dont really have a need for the cell radios to be enabled. Now this could be done by entering airplane mode and then turning on wifi but the problem is you cant use bluetooth while in airplane mode(I use bluetooth for the texttab app) so that's an issue... Then I found out you can disable the radios but still have BT enabled if you enter !+!+4636+!+! into the calculator app and then turn off the radio. The only problem with that is it doesnt stick after a reboot. I did some digging and I found a script that can be run on boot that does the same thing as entering the code and disabling the radio.

follow the instructions here(you must be rooted):

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile...-on-any-android-device-without-airplane-mode/

I have tested it and it works great! When it first boots you will see the radios on, but then when the script kicks in while it's finishing booting it disables the radio and leaves wifi and bluetooth on :)

edit: you can also use tasker to run the script at boot
