the only thing u can do is use another pc to flash it which never had the pc companion or seus and try to flash it from there...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scribbclubber:
Remember that u also need to remove the registry entries for pccompanion and any other se app on your pc.. then reinstall drivers for flashtool.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scribbclubber:
Coz of 2 application installed to manage a common device so they were sure in conflict
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbvt23:
Hello maybe its a flashtool bug or something with dalvik-cache or battery stats i am not sure someone correct me if wrong. I recently installed fxp109 cm7.2 and noticed it has a new version of the flashtool if correct its now 6.8.0, maybe the older ones are good and i saw u used 6.7.0 maybe the 6.8.0 works or older version then 6.7.0, Maybe it works if u can remove the drivers in device manager and try to reinstall them with SE gordon gate drivers i am not sure if this will solve ur problem but is worth trying i gues. P.S Greets from holland and i hope it helped if u tryed.

I've rooted my phone using the Ace Hack Kit a month ago and since then I have been having awful times with my 3G connection. I hardly get it, when I'm lucky I get EDGE, and I'm not even talking about callings that were also affected. I've tried several different Radios and I still didn't get a solution. I'm in Brazil and would like to know if there could be any connection of the rooting to the connection problems.

Thanks A LOT!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geeksquad2:
Turns out my Gnex was stolen from Bell.

I'm on Rogers and my contract is not up for renewal as I just upgraded to the Samsung Captivate last summer.

I went to Best Buy and was told that they don't sell the Nexus without a plan. Fine.

I went to the local Rogers store and they wouldn't have stock for a week. Fine.

I check out kijiji.ca. I found a BNIB Gnex in Northbay. I drove through a raging snowstorm to buy it that night for $600.

Cool! I got a Nexus!

Months go by. Fast forward to this afternoon.

'Hi, I'm constable blah from the Northbay Police Dept. Do you own a Google Nexus?'. I'm thinking to myself, 'oh no, this can't be good...'

I have to turn in my phone by Monday afternoon. AND I'm out the $600. AND I got no phone.

Moral of my sad story, always buy from the store. Not some guy on ebay or kijiji.

What lesson have I learnt. Be patient and buy from a store. Don't be in such a hurry.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Q N1NJA:
Wow, that really sucks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spruce_rd:
Ouch, that really sucks. Did they give you any receipt to claim this on your taxes at least?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Adreno:
I'd have said "Yes I bought it, but then I sold it"

Done.

Is it your fault some poor guy got his phone stolen? Or, because its new, a store? Who cares, its not your problem...well it IS your problem now because you admitted to owning it, but whatever.

You payed in honest your hard earned money for a phone you had no idea was stolen so from a moral standpoint I think thats fine.

So now what? Phone gets returned and now that $600 was basically stolen from YOU. Fair right?

You could have just said you bought it but then sold it. Done.

And just because you got ripped off doesn't mean everyone on Kijiji or ebay is bad. I buy and sell all the time through kijiji. Just be smarter about it in the future. Find out where it came from, see the proof of purchase, things like this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zeke1988:
$600, why not buy from Verizon

also, never buy expensive stuffs on Ebay or those second hand web sites.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fr4c:
He's in Canada using Bell, so that's a GSM Nexus. :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mudferret:
Sucks, one of the reasons I didn't buy from Kijiji. Sudbury eh? I went to high school, college and uni there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cordell507:
The forums really should be split I'm tired of Verizon users thinking everybody is in the US, not everybody on xda is get over it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonnyg1097:
Damn that sucks. It is things like that, that make me hesitant on buying things from craigslist/Kijiji and why I always keep my receipt/OEM box in case I do ever decide to sell an expensive device so I can prove to the buyer that they are legit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dmmarck:
There's no way to get your money back? You'd think you'd have a legit claim there, considering there was all sorts of fraud/misrepresentation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thehacker010:
Normally, you would be the bona fide purchaser. If you paid a reasonable price for the item and the item is considered a common good, which it is, you will win in the court of law. HOWEVER, sites like the one you got it from is considered "caveat emptor", meaning buyer beware. Because it is common knowledge that illegal goods may be sold on such websites as that and Craigslist, you are in fact agreeing to that knowledge when purchasing something.

Unless Bell decides to be nice, HA!, they have rightful ownership of the device. The only recourse you have is to sue the seller for fraudulent activities. Good luck with that one.

P.S.

For anyone who would like to know, not ALL items have to be returned in this case. For example, cash cannot be returned if it was used to purchase a consumable. Also, something like lumber or bricks that were used to build your house cannot be returned.

P.P.S

This information is for educational and informational purposes only and should not be misconstrued as legal advice. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dmmarck:
lol if you're not a lawyer I suggest not using such strong language ;).

It's a simple contracts case w/ fraud, misrepresentation, etc., but since he's from Canada I'd be hesitant to really weigh in with what I think.

Primarily b/c I am a lawyer, but an American one ;).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I am tired of the high and mighty attitude that some GSM users have. So I agree, lets split them. Not everyone is GSM, so get over it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thehacker010:
You could probably file a small claims case for around $75 as an infrequent claimant.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geeksquad2:
Yes, it does suck. I just realized that to get another Gnex, I have to cough up another $680 to buy one from Rogers.

I'm going to have the world's most expensive $1280 Nexus soon.

No, I'm not lying to the police. I wasn't brought up like that. I'm Sorry you were. Besides, I'm too old to start stirring the pot with the popo, and if I did, it wouldn't be over a $600 phone.

Yes, I do buy other goods from kijiji. I probably will still do so, and yes I will be much more leary and vigilent of possible fraud. And I will probably avoid buying electronics from kijiji though.

Yup, born on the Rock. Sounds like you were too, why the move to the flat part of the country?

What's Verizon?

The officer said if the Judge orders restitution, I may get a refund or the phone back... eventually... like in a year and a half or so. I'm not holding my breath.

Hey, at least I'm not getting charged with possesion of stolen property! There's a bonus!

I looked at Bell and Rogers to see if there was any newer phone that I might upgrade to. No.. the Gnex still has the HD screen and ICS.

So this weekend I'll be buying another one from the Rogers store.

That really sucks. I was saving the $ for long tube headers and dual exhaust for my truck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KiNG OMaR:
The police obviously traced the IMEI of the phone since it was in use. How else did they know who to call? They called because they knew you had the phone and were using it :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crossover37:
That really sucks man and I can honestly say I know how you feel.

I bought 6 Verizon BlackBerry 8830 phones a few years ago to resell them and before I bought them I called Verizon to make sure the ESNs were clear and I was told that they were.

I buy the phones, sell them on eBay, and after a month the seller says the ESNs are bad. I get the phones back after refunding the buyer $1200 (I bought them for $800 I believe) and then I get a call from Verizon saying the phones I had were stolen and then they had the cops call me asking if I had the phones and that I had to turn them in. I told them I bought them from someone else and tried to give a description of the guy and the car he drove but I met him 70 miles from my house.

It really, really sucked. Sorry that you had to go through that, it's a big downer when it happens.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EP2008:
Thank you for being an honest person. If you ever have some kind of donation option to fund your new phone, I'll be the first to pitch in.

Good people shouldn't get screwed over by scammers (I almost was on a completely defective "mint condition" HTC Sensation), but lying will only set you up for some other problem down the road.

Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lrs421:
Sorry to hear that OP, you seem like a good person that got screwed over by some dirtbag . Any chance you paid by PayPal? They tend to side with buyers. Something tells me you paid cash though :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Haesslich:
No, but he said in his original post that he was on Bell and his phone was a stolen Rogers phone - aka 'not Verizon'. That's zeke's mistake for not reading the post. Still, everyone else in the world uses GSM, so yes, Verizon's got a smaller market and the CDMA Nexus isn't going to be that common in comparison.

Still, lesson learned. Pity the OP can't turn in the seller and maybe get some money back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Adreno:
Well OP its not about being "honest" when you honestly didn't know it was stolen. I feel bad for you, seriously. That was your hard earned money! So bad I will do something nice (I was trying to decide between the Nexus and Note anyways but this will decide it)

I live in Ontario as well, if you want I'll sell you my Galaxy Nexus, in person, with proof of purchase. Absolutely 10/10 perfect condition, $500.

And yes people I understand that the Police "could" look into it deep, but they won't. Take it from a Police Foundations student that the Police are far too busy and over worked to look into crap like this.

Anyways PICs for OP:

Heh, they wouldn't charge you with possession of stolen property unless you had knowledge that the phone was infact stolen and even if they tried, good luck proving it. :D

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
I just wanna say that I think it's f***ed that they're making you turn in the phone and not even bothering to use this lead to go after the @$$hole who stole the phone in the first place.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
I would think you'd drive the whole way there, considering he's giving you a hell of a deal.

Then again, the gas alone will make it cheaper to just buy it locally.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Adreno:
Yeah guys it is a bit far. Price seems fine for me but I am not 100% sure I want to keep the Note over the Nexus...let me think about it for a bit.

I was going to sell the Nexus for $500 or the Note for $600 so either way meh.

I didn't stop to think how far the drive would be lol, I always just offer to drive usually because most the people I talk to in Toronto don't drive : /

But....I would like to help. Now OP have you ever considered the Note? Its nice, just freaking massive. I think the size might be a bit much for me but I don't know.

Let me think about it OP ok. I'll inbox you in an hour or 2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gtab55:
OP, Verizon is this cell phone company in the United States. They like to do THREE things: 1. Rape you with an outrageous phone bill every month. 2. Give you unreliable service ESP. for a LTE phone. 3. Tell you that you have the most reliable coverage and service nationwide, but acknowledge they have a data outage. <-(Although the media has never said that the other carriers' data is out in the past months where Verizon's has been out for 4+ times).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Truculent:
I'm just wondering, but what kind of proof did this constable offer you? Where would you turn the phone in? Ask for this in writing and consult a lawyer. This smells semi-fishy to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
I would think the telecom should have to provide evidence to you to show that it belongs to them. It's funny how the good guy gets screwed when it comes to **** like this.

Also, I would suggest trying to call them up and try to work something out. Keep your cool and be nice to them, if you can show some kind of evidence that you purchased it - they might offer you some kind of discount or something.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] subxero123:
OP I live in brampton

I'll sell u my galaxy nexus basically brand new with the receipt

Screen protector and body protector from day one

No scratches, perfect condition :)

I'll give it for 500
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] geeksquad2:
Wow, I wake up this morning and I have four offers!

Thanks guys! :cool:

So, I've picked one and contacted him.

Hopefully I'll have a replacement phone by the end of the day.

Yes, the officer emailed me with the details of the case and paperwork to hand in with the phone. So I'm pretty sure it's all legit. And I have to turn the phone into the local police station AND make a statement, etc.

Although I did say 'NO to a couple of his requsts at first'. Imagine some random guy calls and wants your IMEI#, serial#, address etc 'just to confirm'. Um, no....

It was only when he started to provide accurate details of my life that I started to co-operate with him. So ya, the officer already knew all about me and my phone before he called.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Not born there, moved there for grade 9. Toronto and Thunder Bay prior to that. Moved out west (Yellowknife) when I was in the diamond biz, worked my way south to Calgary. My parents still live there, but I haven't been back in 5 years; I miss all the lakes most of all and some killer mountain biking right out my back door. Now I have to drive to the mountains to ride similar terrain (which never happens).

Glad to hear you're going to be back into a new phone shortly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
You don't think the police would ask the phone carrier what type of phone you were using..?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hello00:
how can he say he sold it when he is using his gn to talk to the police?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jttate04:
Wow

I'm quite surprised you weren't able to explain to the police dept. that you purchased the phone from the internet, and you did not steal it. Real bummer you lost $600 bucks. Sorry 'bout that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xHausx:
It's the same way in the US, you're responsible for making sure it isn't stolen before buying it. And not only would you be out of your money, but if they wanted to they could get you in trouble for just buying it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neotekz:
for the OP why did you pay 600 for a used/opened galaxy nexus? just to save the tax?

buying a used phone off kijiji and craigslist is pretty sketchy and not worth it unless you are saving quite a bit on the msrp. ive been burned using kijiji before buying a captivate with a circle burned in from a clock im guessing.

i did meet a few people when i was looking to buy the galaxy nexus and even saw a few galaxy s2. i was more careful this time and took my time to test for any burned in and few other known issues. One of the galaxy S2 i saw could of been a stolen display model since it has the Samsung Galaxy S2 logo burned into the screen exactly like the screen savers on the displays at the store. after seeing that phone i just said screw it i'll just pay the extra 100/150 and get a new one from Fido. that way i can return it easily if there is anything wrong with it.

Good thing too since the first one i got from Fido had a really grainy screen and transparent lines at low light. second one is much better. be careful since you sound like you are going to buy a used one again. take your time to really test it. if you are buying from a forum member you can look at their previous post to see how long they had it and if they complained about any problems with the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hunteres:
Everytime you change phone and you insert your email/gmail details - for the market ---> you can see the device you are using in google checkout. you can see what in device are you installing the apps in and the emei of it. like i mean model + identification.

Thats how they find you dude... they know all they need about "us".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RussianMenace:
No, I its not your job to make sure it's legit and the only way you can get in any trouble is if they can prove that you knowingly bought a stolen item.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stockerx10a:
Sucks for OP, and unfortunately, you are SOL. I can understand the concern with buying a phone on kijiji, but you can do some small things to protect yourself. I bought a Gnex on kijiji but I wrote up a contract that explicitly stated that the phone was not stolen, and the seller was the legitimate owner. I had them write in their name, address and sign it then show me proof. I.e. drivers license. To make it easier for the seller, you can write in the phone is sold as-is. that way they have incentive to show you ID. Really it's no detriment to you, as you have no recourse anyways unless you make them sign an agreement that details some guarantee, which no one will give. if they won't show you id, you walk, plain and simple.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DROID_INC:
Well I always buy phones from people to fix them up and make a quick profit. You can always buy a phone from a person, you just have to call your provider or go online to find out if the phones meid number(this varies but all phones have some I'd number) is not on The Blacklist and been stolen and you should find out on the spot. I came across a few stolen phones but called, checked, and didn't buy them. For the most part just ask the guy your buying it from if its stolen and say if they're OK if you run the number to see if it is clean. If its not they usually get scared and tell you its not for sale or something.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kichard:
I'd lose that phone pretty fast.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] doctahjeph:
Well honestly Bell should just step up and let him keep the phone. So now Bell gets a used phone to sell as a refurb for what less than $200 on an upgrade? OP, you should have called Bell and asked if you could work out a deal for $200-$300 to keep the phone. It would still be cheaper than paying $500 for another used one. If Bell declines I'd crack the screen and send it back to them. If they want a used phone I'd give them a used up phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] heo_con184:
Really feel sorry for the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathan3579:
Yeah, hate to say it but I'd be a total **** about it. Lol. Maybe that's just my 24 year old mind but if I paid good money for something and this happened to me and I was gonna comply, I'd try to work something out first or just drop the phone in water (be it filled with salt or soda), break the screen, or do whatever to make them not profit off of my misfortune. :o
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _Dennis_:
How are they profiting off his misfortune? They had a phone that they paid for (yes company's pay for the goods they sell) that they now can not sell for full price. Normally the cell phone company does not make a huge profit off the phones, on a $600 phone the company probably paid around $450-$550. If you paid say even $300 for a phone then sell it for $200 you have lost $100 not profited.

Don't get me wrong it sucks for the OP to be out $600 but it sucks for the company to. This is why often times the company will work with you when it happens.

TL;DR: companies don't profit from theft, buyers don't profit from theft, only person who profits is thief and only until he is caught then he pays.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] doctahjeph:
I don't know about dropping in water, as that can almost be proved to be vandalism. At least cracking the screen they can't prove when it happened.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathan3579:
I totally get what you're saying but who does this hurt more? A profitable company who probably makes a killing on overpriced service or an individual? I'm not saying what I would do is right by any means but the bigger loser is the OP.

I think dropping in water seems more feasible than a broken screen but that's just personal opinion. I mean if the phone is still being used then anything can happen...

Wow! Some of you guys really need to google Karma. I know your young and all, but take it from a guy who has some greys starting to come in. 'What goes around, comes around.'

Look at it this way. I only paid $500 for the replacement phone. When/If I get restitution, then I'm up $100.

So now I have a replacement phone. The forum member did meet me last night. The phone looks fine and I'm busy transferring my stuff.
