[AT&T LG Optimus G] sasoq:
This might sound like a broken record with ebay/craigslist scams, you can add me to the list.

I'm going to keep it short and to the point.

- I'm a T-Mobile user, purchased an AT&T Phone (LG Optimus G) on Craigslist , which i then unlocked via ebay code.

- a couple weeks of use the phone was reported stolen, blacklisted.

> On the day of purchase I saved the craigslist ad on the computer, which contained the seller's number, and it had the date as well.

What should i do?

- Contact the seller?

- Contact AT&T Insurance Company?

- Sell it on Ebay, is it illegal?

Would greatly appreciate any help or info as I am stranded without a phone, so the sooner the better, thank you.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] extremeblizz:
If I can put my 2 cents in, I believe I have a unique perspective on this since I'm an international buyer-

You can easily list this phone on ebay as BAD IMEI, since this phone is unlocked it can be used on any GSM carrier in the world except AT&T and T-mobile (who share blacklists), which to most people who live outside of the US like me is completely fine- who cares about AT&T honestly lol. So just list it as BAD IMEI on AT&T but unlocked for international carriers, and you'll be able to sell it for like 10-20 bucks less than a regular device easy.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] [r.]GimP:
Or you could find out who's phone it actually is, and turn it into AT&T and contact the local authorities. Get the dude arrested and return the phone to its owner who's probably heartbroken without their LGOG.

In the process get your money back from the dude, he'll have to do crap court anyway they'll add that to his charges and square you away.

You're basically summed up into two probabilities, he either;

A) Stole the phone, and sold it to you. In which case you are now the receiver of stolen property, and now you're going to break the same law and sell it, again. Comical.

B) He owned the phone, and reported it stolen after selling it, thus he's probably committing some pathetic small version of insurance fraud, of which I'm sure AT&T would love to know. In this case I'm almost positive AT&T will let you keep the phone and they'll remove the blacklist since after the fact.

Bonus round: You could just call AT&T / their insurance, and tell them you have the phone, the situation you're in, and present the evidence you kept.

Just think, worst case scenario someone could effectively do the exact same thing and use your ebay ad as proof they purchased the phone not knowingly that it was stolen, and then YOU have to deal with the legality of selling stolen property. The world is retarded, have fun :)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
I am wondering if there may be a third scenario.

C) the person that sold the phone neither stole the phone or reported it stolen, but didn't fulfill his contract and AT&T had it blacklisted.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] [r.]GimP:
Touche' I'd call AT&T for sure, especially if I was using it and it cut off :)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] sasoq:
+ I thought the phone number on the ad would be a real number turned out it's not, i think it's a google voice number because I called and heard "could not complete your call please try again.." associated with google voice, dialed *70 plus the number and got through two rings and a end call. Does anyone know how i can find out the real number on google voice?

Idk if i should contact at&t wouldn't they want to take the phone, since it was reported stolen? Meanwhile I have the phone, Is there any way i can still use the phone with a blacklisted imei. I know I've seen some cases where Roms can give a phone a different Imei. Thanks guys for the responses
[AT&T LG Optimus G] charleswesde:
This thread is a little dated but just for clarity, a device won't be blacklisted due to breach of contract. A device is only added to the blacklist if it's reported lost or stolen.

As an aside, calling the carrier won't change the situation much. They don't want the device back and certainly aren't removing it from the blacklist.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] DeathmonkeyGTX:
Yeah op is likely the victim of insurance fraud.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] chrisnewton:
Hi all

I have my Nexus 7 in a case and when you close the case it shuts off and when you open the case it comes on etc with the magnetic auto wake system.

This works fine but I have noticed if I leave my Nexus alone for say 5 minutes opening the case does not turn on the tablet again no matter how many times I open and close it.

I then have to press the on button and then the opening and closing works every time until I again leave if for a while.

Anyone have any ideas why?

Thanks all

Chris

If you look around ... this is a popular issue.

Just leave the bluetooth on (for now) to fix your problem.

Hopefully a real fix is coming someday.

Let's hope Google does find a solution. Have not heard of one yet.
[Moto X Accessories] JFigure:
No branding. Buttons are dimples, work fine. Cutouts are perfect.

Mix of matte and gloss black.

TPU is tight and resistant to pulling off the edges of the screen.

Ordered late Friday night, got Monday morning.

http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Moto...id=1378838209&sr=8-1&keywords=hyperion+moto+x
[Moto X Accessories] Yazzinit:
Looks pretty good. Question: The amazon title says "and screen protector." This isn't a case with a built in screen protector, is it? I have a screen protector on mine already, so I don't need a case that has a screen protector built in, like an Otterbox or something. Just want a snap on case. So provided that it's just a case and a screen protector comes separately, how's the case fit regarding the screen? Does it seem like it'd interfere with a screen protector? Thanks
[Moto X Accessories] infinit22:
Screen protector is not part of the case. Just received this. Very nice
[Moto X Accessories] Yazzinit:
Awesome, thanks for the reply. Sold it for me, buying now
[Moto X Accessories] JFigure:
It just includes a cheapo plastic stickon protector.

The edge that wraps around the front is small, shouldnt interfere with any normal screen protectors.
[Moto X Accessories] seanrobot:
You also have the quicksand case right? Which do u prefer this or the quicksand?
[Moto X Accessories] JFigure:
Quicksand is obviously slimmer. The sandy texture is nice.

This provides WAY more protection though. The matte texture is also nice.

It's a matter of what you need.
[Moto X Accessories] Yazzinit:
Just got this Hyperion case in. Perfect cutouts, perfect form factor still kept (it's very slim). $6-7 on Amazon, can't be beat.
[Moto X Accessories] Rask40:
+1 from me. I've got the clear case, nicely shows off moto maker colors while still giving it that bit of extra protection.
[Moto X Accessories] capathy21:
I also ordered this one and was pleasantly surprised.
[Moto X Accessories] buzzwas:
wow that does look pretty good great find
[Moto X Accessories] chrishighs:
I am waiting for the car sick to be released to see if it has limitations on case size. Hope they hurry before it is too late and I break this thing. This one looks good and cheap enough to just go for not knowing.
[Moto X Accessories] bso44:
I just ordered the Smoke colored one.
[Moto X Accessories] bso44:
Got it today and love it. Wondering if I should've ordered the clear one though so I could see more of the back.
[Moto X Accessories] cheeto:
I got the frost clear one for a white moto x and it looks really good. The back has a nice matte feel to. I think this is the best tpu case for the moto x. I'd like a simliar hard case that is below 10$ but I can't seem to find one. Clear, dimple cut out, thin with a little lip for lay on the table.
[Moto X Accessories] finalarcadia:
Got this in frost clear. It's not bad but still too thick for my liking. Biggest complaint is that buttons are hard to press, would prefer a cutout of the buttons. Would've liked the whole thing to be matte and to reduce the edges on the front; they are too close to the screen.

The quest continues for the perfect TPU case.
[Moto X Accessories] bso44:
Are there really TPU cases that are thinner than others? I've used a bunch on all my devices and haven't really noticed a difference in thickness.
[Moto X Accessories] finalarcadia:
Yes I had a TPU case from Spigen for my GS3 that was simply perfect. Super thin and somehow it did not interfere with the front of the phone at all, unlike most other cases. It kinda tapers outward, instead of towards the screen, so it still gave protection from falls. And yet it all managed to stay snug. This is the kind of case i'm looking for.
[Moto X Accessories] bso44:
The only Spigen TPU case that I'm aware of is the Neo Hybrid. I had that case for my S3 as well and it definitely wasn't thinner than other TPU cases.
[Moto X Accessories] finalarcadia:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmuE7QixQIg

Was that one. Discontinued or something, was never able to buy it again.
[Moto X Accessories] bso44:
Gotcha. Yea, I never knew about that case.
[Moto X Accessories] M@XLOL:
Thanks OP. I'm ordering the frost clear one for the white x.
[Moto X Accessories] ranick01:
I ordered this case. It is pretty nice. The cutouts all line up very well, plus the dimple cut out is a nice touch. I wish the front edges were matte finish though, I dont like the glossy.
[Moto X Accessories] Cowboy_Henk:
Does somebody know any shops that ship this case to Belgium?
[Moto X Accessories] someguyatx:
Check eBay, this case is sold under several brand names. I have it in both black and clear/frost and its branded fosmon.
[Moto X Accessories] James4.0:
I had problems finding the power button because of the needless bump above the power button.

So, took a razor blade and cleanly sliced it off.
[Moto X Accessories] vikramkhalsa:
What did you slice off? the rubber button that is over the actual button? The buttons are kind of annoying and I'm thinking of cutting them out as well.. thoughts?

This is a solid case for the price and just wanted to say Hyperion customer service is top notch. I had a few minor complaints about mine and they immediately sent me a replacement, no questions asked. I like the matte texture on the back and the fact hat theres no logo or branding. And a free screen protector is always nice.
[Moto X Accessories] James4.0:
Mine had an extra bump between the top of the case and power button.

I did not touch the button covers. The covers were annoying at first but after the plastic loosened up, the covers are not as bad.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ben36:
now correct me if I'm wrong but if I unmount it. remove it and put another in that should be it?

the other I'm putting in is a bigger card with all the stuff off the original copied over to it. putting it in and out of the pc and all is fine, all shows etc.

put it into the phone and half goes missing :-S if I then put it back in the pc its still missing :-S

any ideas?

I know there is a thread identical to this but for North America, but we are different markets, same question!

Does anybody know when/if the 64gb version will be available in UK? I have called the carriers and no one seems to be able to give me an answer. The 32gb version is listed on most unlocked phone retailers but again, no mention of the 64gb version.

I want this phone to last a good few years, and with the size of games / videos ever increasing I wanted to get the highest capacity version.

Any news?

Tough to say, the US will likely never see it, but in the UK you have a better shot at it than we do. But still you may have to import it and will at least get a usable phone in your part of the world.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] hawklen:
Not too long ago I bought a XT910 from rogers used off a person. It had a problem,it wouldn't boot pass the rogers screen, well I got it once or twice, just to root it and it always booted fine in BP hardware + AP boot but no other way. After tinkering I got BMM installed, and was able to install any non stock based ROMS (AOKP types iirc).

I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem and if there is a way to get stock based roms like catalyst and Artmod to boot properly.

Or do you think there is some hardware problems on it? Like I said, non stock based roms seem to work fine, well some have a small lag issue on touching the screen and actions but so far Carbon 4.3 JB rom I have installed with the JBX kernel seems to be going fine (Even have GPS working fine too)

I just wanted to know anyones opinion on the matter. (oh, I bought the phone for only $80 CDN, figured it was a deal)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peter_dk:
Hey!

I been a faithful Samsung supporter having bought the first three galaxy phones. However, I'm seriously tired of Samsungs ugly interfaces and waiting for updates to newest android versions.

I understand that some of the reason as to why the camera quality and battery life isn't as good as stock on cm/aosp is because Samsung haven't released documentation for their hardware. Otherwise I'd be happy using a custom rom.

My top priorities are camera, battery life, access to updates and ability to customize, sd card expansion and durability - because of this I'm considering the new Sony Experia Z1. Screen size and quality is of less importance.

It comes with a 3000mAh battery and what looks to be an amazing camera and on top of that it's water- and shockproof.

How are the cm/aosp roms for Sony's phones compared to stock? is the battery life just as good/better and what about camera features?

Cheers,

Peter

Mind-numbing answer: OTG is NOT supported on the Xperia ZL! :D

Someone please read my question on that link and tell me what the difference is between OTG and USB Host? Perhaps that'd also explain why viniciusnc's controller doesn't work.

I personally tried hooking up an USB HUB and attaching an USB mouse, a Sixaxis PS3 controller through USB and an USB stick to it. All devices worked out of the box on my XperiaZL, simultaneously! :)

So in your case, I'm guessing it's a driver issue.

So I looked into the matter. My ZL on .244 does have USB Host support.

You can download the app to check your phone's USB Host. Chainfire, who is a dev here at XDA, made this app.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/..._medium=organic&utm_term=usb+host+diagnostics

The gamepad that you are using might just be requiring special drivers that Android does not support.

When looking at a new device. The only development that you can count on is the work your willing to put into it. Some times device get little to none and some come along later as it gets cheaper. If you like it and it does what you want/need it to do. Them get it and be happy. Then if it needs something you can search around and maybe learn to do it.
