So I put my phone on CL cuz I wanted to trade for a N4 or sell...and a lady/guy they text me asking they want to trade my htc amaze for a att htc one x...at 1st I was like well thats good...but then they told me....the screen is shattered. So she sends me a pic of the phone im like " I can fix it". But then I didnt want to take the risk and blah blah....so I tell her "how about we trade plus 50$ on your side." They said okay...long story short they said they were going to fix the screen and for me just to unlock the phone. But I think all she is doing is going to scam me. They said it was clean IMEI just the screen been cracked what do u guys think?? This is the pic they send me...

I suggest you not go for the One X because it's quite old. HTC has ditched it in terms of future software support. Just sell the Amaze and look for a better phone.
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
If you can repair the glass go for it!

Well, in my opinion, it doesn't look like a bad deal, but ONLY if you can fix the glass!

If you don't think you have the guts/skill to replace the glass, then don't go for it.

Since you can purchase the glass only for a One X (with the tools), on eBay for less than 10$, well why not? lol

If you think they're trying to scam you, maybe you should just sell the Amaze and then get a better phone like a Nexus 4 or something. But selling an Amaze won't get you that much $$, however, trading an Amaze for a One X fully working and repairing the glass would give you more resale value. See where I'm going with this? :cool::good:

In the end they're all just expensive toys. :D

Here is a link for what the glass looks like.

[HTC Amaze 4G] Galaxysm:
Well she or whoever it is offered to buy the phone for 100 which I probably would do if she cant confirm that the phone is good imei I really dont need a phone I just want it for work cuz I dont want to end up paying about 170 for a new replacement for note 2 plus is refurbished. But ima ask if she can trade that phone for a N4 and then ill trade her :p or just sell the amaze and save for my Nexus 5 :D thats the phone I want atm!! ^.^ lol.

Btw she did offer to fix the screen I guess she is going to do it her self since she said she was going to order one plus I think I can fix it my self since Ive replaced a htc inspire that my gf gave me lol.

Want me to be honest? I got scammed when I purchased a hyc G2 for my lil sis about week and half ago -_- thats why I dont really want too lol

[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Yeah there is always a risk, someone tried to sell me a broken Motorola Triumph, didn't even charge. Plus it was the worst phone ever. Wi-Fi took 5 minutes to turn on, data was slow as heck, battery drain on stock was insane! Did I mention that it was released on android 2.2 when others were already on 4.0/4.1? Would rather have a flip phone than that. Luckily I got refunded but it took those scammers like 2 months to refund me once I sent it back :eek:.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Galaxysm:
In my case...I guess the idiot was thinking I didnt know anything about phones...the phn was rooted running some rom I think ICS. The camera was borke not cuz of the rom but cuz of I think he opened it and moved the camera around or something. I managed to fix all the problems even fixed the camera and now on Friday my effin touching screen stopped working -_-" I think I managed to fix that also not sure. Anywho long story short I dont trust CL. Only good phone I got off CL was my S2. And the iphone I bought my gf. -_-" lol...so yeah xD

Sent from my Note2 ™
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Perhaps you should use

swappa.com

I bought my S3 off there plus its a great site, XDA supports it and transactions aren't shady like CL. :)

They don't allow junk phones at all, it's their iron rule. So you're much less likely to get issues.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Galaxysm:
Thanks buddy that was the website I was looking for 2days I go but I couldn't find it and forgot lol...but yeah I think thats were im going to be headed whenever I need or someone needs to find a phone cuz the ppl at CL just plain suck -_-...if I sell something I tell them the true not scam them.

Sent from my Note2 ™
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Np lol. :) And yeah I see what you mean, unfortunately people turned CL into a shady website where you can get h03s, buy junk, get scammed, and if you're lucky, still get good stuff! Oh well, good things don't last. □_□
[HTC Amaze 4G] Galaxysm:
True. Would be kwl if I could install a system app in the amaze in case she wants to scam me and just get the phone looked down or track it back lol but oh well might just end up selling it instead. And I had just order some screen protector :( lol

Sent from my Note2 ™
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Maybe you should try Cerebus or Avast. :)

But its probably better to just sell it then.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Galaxysm:
Yeah ur right I think just sell it and get it over. No running into trouble or anything lol or just keep it ^.^

[HTC Amaze 4G] aj_2423:
For those discussing the possibility of getting scammed on Craigslist (or elsewhere) this is what I reccomend...

First off, for safety reasons, you should always request a picture of the device with a piece of paper next to it with their phone number written on it, that way you at least. now this person really has the phone.

Next, you should either

1.) Before setting up a meet, ask the seller to provide you the imei number (if you want to be extra safe ask for a picture of it). Once you have it, call T-Mobile and tell them that you are looking at buying a phone from Craigs but you wanted to make sure that it hadnt been reported stolen or had a blacklisted IMEI. Most cust. service reps have never been asked this but they definitely can and will do it for you.

Or

2.) Set the meeting place at a T-Mobile Store, go inside and have them check the imei right there.

And of course, ALWAYS put your SIM Card in the phone and make sure it has a connection. Even if the screen is shattered, you can always have someone call you to make sure calls go through
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
The only problem with that is once they make the sale they can still call it in as lost or stolen. It's not a full proof system.
[HTC Amaze 4G] DigitalUnderground:
Yeah I have. I've also had the HTC one s and HTC one... They both sucked ass. N5, Note 3 or G2 just my opinion
[HTC Amaze 4G] DigitalUnderground:
Final decision... I'm swooping the nex5
[HTC Amaze 4G] freakboy13:
Avast... Used to be awesome till they joined the spam train. Every day I get pop ups asking me to upgrade, try this, try that. I haven't tried cerebrus maybe time for a new anti virus.
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Lol I don't even use those apps anymore, virus protection for Linux isn't serious unless you're doing lots of downloading and installing 3rd party apps. It's like a cow catcher on a helicopter. :)

But yeah Cerberus seems like a good anti theft but there's many options, like where's my droid, Android lost, etc.

But I can't believe a vast joined the spammer bandwagon, that sucks.

I need a hookup for an AT&T Galaxy S2 Unlock code. Its for my cousin and she is not very rich. She lives in Hawaii and I don't think I can guide her on how to root her handed down S2. She is willing to pay but not pay an arm and a leg. LMK fellas or ladies. ..tia
[HTC Amaze 4G] freakboy13:
Afik she should be able to unlock via att, I think you can even do it online.

But jeez... Friends don't let friends drive an s2. Lol.

As far as rooting start off with a tool kit:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1677092

Once she's got the hang of it tell her to move on the real way. I'm not sure if chainfires root method works.

Btw does any one want a free after market galaxy s3 battery? I found it in my drawer the other day and have no need for it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] DigitalUnderground:
I usually make steak medium well... But I don't usually buy filet and when I do, medium rare protects the flavor and tenderness. It was the first one I've ever made. I only seasoned with salt and pepper, again to protect the flavor.

Just dropping by to brag about running cm11 :) it will hold me over till I buy my nexus 5

[HTC Amaze 4G] DigitalUnderground:
Lol you know I couldn't wait for weeks for my phone to get here... Especially cuz I had to trade the gs4. I got a 16gb black from T-Mobile. I use Google play for most of my music and have my main 10 albums or so on my device and nowhere near 16gb for pics, ROMs, docs, etc. Only thing that sucked was getting ****ed $100 on the price hike that Google put on the phone for carriers to have it. Oh well. I love it and will have it at least till its time to "jump" lol. BTW... White gets dirty and is a fingerprint magnet
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:

Yeah mine too... Although once this device got ICS... the unknown noobs that took over drove me out... This is the only thread in this devices forum that I visit. I usually end up seeing mrmako in every other forum that I go to as either he talks me into a device or I get the obvious choice before he does. If you guys wanna learn what devices are quality, just check out where we have been. S3/S4/N5

And now I'm on tmo jump program so who knows where I'll end up next. That G2 was so damn sick at the store... But I really wanted a nexus. I had a N1 and haven't had one since but really those are my favorite devices. G2 almost claimed me tho. Its camera sw and screen are flat out amazing

Hey fellas, I don't mean to go off topic (lmao), but I was wondering if you guys could recommend high parts for PC's, while still having a good value and price?

I was thinking about building a PC for gaming and the many other versatile functions for a PC like video editing, projects, compiling (soon), etc.

My budget is less than 400$

Should I go with AMD or Intel?

4GB of RAM is enough right?

Graphics cards you recommend?

Power supply?

CPU cooler (heatsink)?

Sexy case that isn't a toaster?

Motherboard?

Probably missed some stuff. But I'm on the fence about what to buy. Anything you all recommend? :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Odysseus1962:
[MENTION=2967454]afnan[/MENTION] you ever build your own rig from scratch before, or is this your first? Plan on over-clocking? If so air or liquid cooling? What kind of price range? What size case? How many drives you want? Going to RAID? If so, what type? You want serious or casual gaming?

Figure out these questions as many of the answers influence each other and affect or limit what you can buy. You need to understand what you want on the price to performance bell curve. Ahead of the curve and price to performance goes down till you reach a point of diminishing returns. Stay behind the curve and it goes up and get most bang for the buck. You're the one always posting you're a starving student.

If you don't already, you can start by reading toms hardware guide, anandtech, arstechnica, hardocp, maximumpc, overclockers.com, and Slashdot. Everything you would want or need to know can be mined from those sites, and you'll get educated too. Once you researched the fun begins.

I will make one recommendation, I'm a big fan of Asus mainboards. I cut corners the first few rigs I built, because I was young and starving like you are now, but paid for it later with problems afterward. Asus boards tend to be expensive, but they're well built and have excellent support. They make a solid foundation to build off of. I've built over a hundred machines over the last 20 years and they have never let me down.

Edit: be forewarned, it's easy to get sucked in and addicted to the upgrade treadmill. I'm divorced now because of it. It's just like many here with these devices. The need for speed and to have the latest greatest fastest can become all consuming. Lol you don't want to end up like I did with a living room and bedroom full of rigs and an angry old lady heading out the door.

Edit: really getting sick of xda ap...:unamused:

Hey Anan as far as video cards go with evga ....they have lifetime warranties and awesome customer service.

I build my own pc's .... Its easy to do.

Don't bother with liquid cooled .

Totally unnecessary unless your a hard core gamer. Even then its not really necessary UNLESS you build a pc that NEEDS it.

I'm still running a 5 yo amd 64 with a 1 tb ssd , evga gtx 260 , a Salman fan on the cpu , 6gb of memory.

I got **** tons of videos music,

and can still play Everquest almost as smooth as my buddy's alienware, which I told him the aliens must have gotten to him for him to throw down that cash...
[HTC Amaze 4G] Odysseus1962:
Alright, I'll take the bait, how do you know? Lol

On the cooling front, I'll agree for most air cooling is more than satisfactory, but there are significant differences in heatsinks fans, particularly when it comes to noise (which is the biggest advantage to liquid cooling).

Then of course there's the other end of the spectrum. My ex put up with me for 10 years always tinkering with my rigs, my friends, and coworkers. The last straw for her was when I ordered a custom Vapo-Chill case so I could cryogenically freeze my CPU to -40 degrees centigrade so I could overclock my 1.3ghz Pentium-3 past the "2ghz barrier", which was quite an impressive feat back then. Long story short, after spending 2 weeks trial and error experimenting I got it running stable @ 2.2ghz and had bragging rights at overclockers.com and at Tom's, but it would take 20mins to boot and was louder than an old refrigerator, especially at night. It raised my Quake3 scores, but aggravated her to no end. Then when the bill finally came in and she saw that I'd spent nearly $800 on the case, she freaked then high-tailed it to the lawyer's office and took me to the cleaners. (Edit: In hindsight it wasn't the smartest move on my part, especially since that was way more than I had spent on either her engagement or our wedding rings.)

Fortunately, I finally learned my lesson. Now I only buy the computer I need not what I want and have a lot more saved to show for it. In fact, I've had my current laptop for over 6 years. Before I would have churned through at least a dozen in that time.
[HTC Amaze 4G] SuperAfnan:
Thanks for the feedback guys! This is going to be my first rig and I'm trying to build one for gaming for around 300$. If I went up to $450 that could obliterate an PS4 or XBOX ONE easily. :) Silly console fanboys.

Yeah I don't think liquid cooling is necessary. That's very alien-like to me lol. I'll more than likely go with AMD. They're the best for value, yet Intel is the fastest but can cost way more. Quad core is definitely the way to go, yet there's so many options! As for the graphics card, yeah I need to buy a good one. I'll look at the EVGA ones [MENTION=2953893]freakboy13[/MENTION]

[MENTION=5463522]Odysseus1962[/MENTION] I used to play Quake III and Halo combat evolved in 6th grade when people linked it on the school local H:/ drive. We played it everyday and people played it so much that they were even late to class. I think we broke a couple of computers since they froze and the screen got stuck when we pulled the plug out. :eek:

It was all fun and games until next year when some idiot copied it onto the share drive that administrators checked. I won't say his name but he got a referral, others pressed CTRL + ALT + DELETE and managed to escape. That kid received the equivalent to going to the principle's office lol.

Last time I checked , the games still reside on that drive. I'd be willing to bet they're still there. Duval county has some of the dumbest administrators...

In high school, people did the same thing. Except we made a folder called AP ASIAN HISTORY and put folders in folders, then added more games. :cool:
[HTC Amaze 4G] Odysseus1962:
[MENTION=2967454]afnan[/MENTION] I've got to agree with you on the incompetence of the admins in FL school districts. By the time my brother who's 7 years younger than me was a senior in HS, they had begun offering computer classes. In his case the person they selected to both teach the class and admin the machines was the same clueless half blind and deaf old guy who was teaching typing when I was there. The stories my bro told were hilarious. By this time in the late 80's he'd already owned a Commodore VIC-20 and Commodore 64, so he'd already taught himself basic and was writing his own apps. The teacher could barely figure out how to turn the thing on, which didn't surprise me at all because the guy couldn't figure out how to change the ribbon on an IBM selectric typewriter. He told me he spent most of his time there playing games and pranking the teacher. The old coot was so inept he couldn't figure out what was happening and accused the class of sabotaging the machines. To this day my bro says thats the easiest class he ever took and the only one where every student in the room new more than the instructor.

Judging by what I see regularly happening at school board meetings on TV I don't think things have changed much, and if it has It's gotten worse.
