I bought it too in the hype, but after using it a few days I felt I got ripped off and way over paid!

If a really good deal comes along I'll buy it again or might just get the Pixel 3 XL instead.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jaben2:
Pixel 3xl is still a great phone. I still have it. Although for the price and features I bought the 7T after returning the 4xl. It's close enough to the pixel for me and I saved a considerable amount of money.

In the end Google wants to charge premium prices, but always cut corners somewhere happens every year. 4xl will be a great phone I'm sure just probably the first pixel I'll not own.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroMod777:
I was looking at that 7t, but not having wireless charging is a deal breaker for me. It’s like having a flip phone all over again. lol

Every phone I’ve had since 2012 has had wireless charging, starting with the Verizon exclusive, Droid DNA. Then LG’s G2, G4, Samsung’s S8, S9, Note 9, and now current LG v30.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] zetsumeikuro:
It's why I bought my Pixel on my credit card to use price protection. Every single year it has not failed me. Until the banks decide to stop doing price protection (shakes fist at Citi).
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroMod777:
How many days out that good for?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] zetsumeikuro:
Citi's price rewind was 60 days from date of purchase. Other banks probably have something similar 30-60 days. Sadly Citi ended the price rewind last month.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] plmiller0905:
So Amazon will let you take advantage of 2 promotions then? That being the $100 GC and then the Black Friday price of $200 off?

I would think they would only just refund you $100. If the Black Friday cost is $200 and they already gave you a $100 GC.

But it would be awesome if you did get $300 off
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ginfest:
Good point. I know Amazon has always priced matched for me when a product was within the return period. I usually argue do you want me to return and reorder at the lower price and they have always just credited me.

But with the $100.00 GC, it makes sense if the phones drop another $200.00, they'd only match an additional $100.00. I'll still argue it anyway but $799.00 still isn't bad for the phone if it happens.

Unlocked bootloader or unlocked carrier? The unlocked bootloader can be rooted the unlocked carrier can not be rooted.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroMod777:
Its Google Unlocked from Bestbuy which are bootloader unlockable.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] owlmatt:
Hmmm, so $200 more dollars not to get the unlocked version. $599 for the 4 XL 128 version sounds great if I don't want to root. hmmmm

That's good news, thanks.

Yeah I just ordered this morning... But they are already sold out of orange :(
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroMod777:
Whats all the craze for the orange one that its selling out so fast? Guess I'm just old school with just black.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] CyberpodS2:
Yeah me too. I got a white one and it's in a case anyway... Lol
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] in_dmand:
True... I just wanted it for something different lol. But yeah I'll have a case on anyway haha
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bobby janow:
I wonder if they are just making it an exclusive. Like a vintage Mustang. The first ones who got it will be the only ones who got it. That would be way cool and justify the early adopters. Hey, I've heard crazier things.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] srimay:
I got an orange slickwraps for mine.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Juice3250:
I had ordered a Verizon variant through Best Buy on Saturday. I cancelled it today and ordered unlocked through Google. Screw Verizon and their credits spread out over 2 years thereby locking me into their carrier. Best buy offered me $150 for my S9 vs. Google $200. Best Buy was $300 off vs $200 off from Google. So I am ending up paying $50 more through Google but all the discounts and trade in credit is applied at the beginning of the loan, not throughout the life of the loan.

As a side note, I paid $133 to pay off my S9 to be able to upgrade. It had 24 month credits so if I had kept it for four more months totaling 24 months I would have ended up paying less for it.

I should be able to just take my Verizon sim out of my S9 and put it into my Pixel 4xl when I get it. Or am I mistaken?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] biggiestuff:
I went with black. I wanted white but that orange button is gonna get old fast on me since Orange in my opinion isn't a lasting color unless you have some sort of sentimental attachment to it. Black is gonna be a fingerprint magnet but I bought a skin. I would have eventually gotten a skin for the white phone since I know i'll get bored by white but there is nothing you can do about that orange button.

---------- Post added at 12:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 PM ----------

There was an option to buy the unlocked through best buy and sprint (new account or new line) and it would come out to 100 dollars less. I just didn't want to go through the trouble of getting a hard pull on my credit and someone told me there is a 40 dollar activation fee that would cut into the savings. In the end I just got it through the google store since the delivery would be faster. Best buy wouldn't have had it in stock by at least dec 2nd. My pixel has already shipped and I purchased last night.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroMod777:
Yes. unlock it first, then swap the sim.

Yea mine shipped too from Google. Getting it tomorrow!
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Juice3250:
I just purchased mine this morning and I'm getting it tomorrow.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] eg1122:
My orange pixel 4xl was delivered Nov 14th. I contacted them a few days ago and again today and they refunded me the difference from the sale to when I had ordered it.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] in_dmand:
Yep, I used a Verizon sim card and popped it in my pixel with no issues. Good call on going with Google... They offer advanced replacement should you have any warranty issues (so you won't be without a phone)
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] imna357:
same here, they refunded me with $210 plus additional $100 from the pre ordered=) hehehe, awesome, save like $310=)
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] lyall29:
Nice! I almost tried that with Best Buy last week, but luckily I read their price match policy before buying. They won't match prices for the Black Friday sale if you buy the phone before the sale. I just assumed that Google wouldn't either. I just waited until the sale went live on the Google store.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sic0048:
Yes. That should be all that it requires.

I think you will be better off with the unlocked version vs the locked down Verizon version. Rooting may not be important to you at this time, but at least you have the option with the unlocked version. Verizon can stick it where the sun don't shine IMHO for their policy on locking bootloaders.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Juice3250:
I couldn't agree more. The main reason I ever rooted in the past is because my phone stopped receiving updates. This was like 6 years ago when I was on a Galaxy Nexus with Jelly Bean. I've pretty much moved on from feeling the need or desire to root and flash roms and customize my phone at the subs level. I have the S9 and it has a bunch of options to customize but honestly don't mess with it too much at all. I wanted to buy from Google so I could get timely updates and not have to wait on Verizon to push them out.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MikeC4510:
Didn't see it posted here, but in case no one knew, Google Fi is having a great deal for the Pixel 4s. I bought the 128gb panda yesterday and it's arriving tomorrow. Bought it for full price ($1065 after taxes), but I'll be receiving $500 in Fi credit. So, depending on the poison, basically I paid $565 for the phone, or I paid full price for the phone and have $500 in credit that'll pay my ~$24 monthly phone bill for the next 2 years. Glad I didn't pre-order for the first time since the Galaxy S 2 ?.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] wolfeyes30:
Cool deal. I was looking into Fi but imo, for the two of us, their plans just don't cut it for us. $120 plus tax and fees for unlimited. We're on T-Mobile now with 2 lines for $90 per month unlimited including tax and fees.

Maybe one-day.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] GoBears:
My XL comes in tomorrow, I'm stoked!
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroMod777:
Well just got mine. Unlocked it and flashed the newest November firmware QD1A.190821.014.C2 which I assumed to be what Verizon uses, but didn't see anything different from the 007.A3 version.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bobby janow:
Yes, that's a pretty good deal if you are going to stay on Fi for 24 months. Here's one of the problems I have with Fi. Google rewarded the early buyers with the current BF deal and gave them $200 off as well as the $100 credit originally in the Google Store. Fi gave bupkis. So on the P4 you got $100 Fi credit at launch and now they are offering $400 credit. So of course they would offer that deal right? Ok, well maybe not but they would certainly give what Google gave another $200 credit right? No? How about throw us a bone and $100. lol.

I wasn't thrilled with the expiration of the credit Google was giving so I went with the Fi. Live and learn. Next time I'll follow my own advice and wait until BF and buy a Google device and not from the poor stepsister Fi. (no offense to stepsisters) I did get my credit applied so after 4 months I'm free and clear and will move my service to another provider where I can use an eSim. Open to suggestions.. one line, no data needed only text and phone.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] lyall29:
Got mine yesterday, and I must say...this is the best Android experience I've had in a long time. The speakers are great, display is great, face unlock is great and the camera is awesome. I'm glad I got rid of my OnePlus 7t for the Pixel 4xl. Much happier so far.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mochamoo:
Mine is on order $200 BF deal plus 10% store credit because I added Google One subscription (cancellable). $79 store credit (128gb) will get me pixel stand later.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] CyberpodS2:
So far I don't think anyone has reported any noticeable differences. It is "assumed" that it's only modem and/or carrier services. There are several folks on here that tried flashing a couple of them with no ill effects for whatever that is worth. LOL
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] crusht:
We are buying two XL's tomorrow. I guess the best deal for unlocked is $200 discount everywhere, anything better?

Also which would be the best place to buy at and why?

Best Buy (will probably have it immediately if in stock), Amazon or Google direct.....I would like to get it at Best Buy but do they have any weird return policies if phone is faulty? Any dis/advantages with Amazon or Google?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] srimay:
My best buys were all out of stock to purchase in store, would have taken 2 days to order one and have shipped. I decided to go thru b & h photo. Received it in 2 days as well, zero interest for 12 months. It came by FedEx today

I have MDA III with windows Mobile 6

How can i update it to 6.1?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GhotiGhongers:
I called them the other day....they first said that they do not have the MDA Vario III in their product range :eek:

Once they'd accepted that they do have the MDA Vario III in their range, they stated they had no plans to provide a WM6.1 update.

To be honest, I don't really think the drone who took my call really knew what I was asking for :mad:

You can, of course, flash HardSPL then install one of the cooked 6.1 ROMs - check the links in my sig for more info.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mugglesquop:
i've come to the conclusion over the past few years, that T-Mobile are absolutely useless. they never release updates, not even from WM5-6.

Hey

have a problem with timeout too. I can change it to whatever in settings but it seems to be fixed to 5 seconds.

Tried all kind of timeout apps from play store but they only work until Miui rom kicks them.

Read somewhere it could be a hardware problem but I don't think so because some apps work (temporarily).

Please help

Hi,

Has anyone idea how to change an apk icon? I mean the system icon, not Just change it through launcher options.

I've tried, following a guide, changing the apk extention ti rar, then unzipped the file, change the icon, re-zipped the folder and re-changing the extention to apk. But the installation doesn't work. Same procedure, for another app, works fine.

I'd like to change Grindr icon.

Can someone show me a Guide or has someone the apk modified?

I have several SP5 phones, and i've used them without much trouble for the last coupe of years. We used a Linksys router to connect via wifi and it worked well, but know we bought a Cisco 851w router and the SP5 don't connect to it. They receive the SSID, but if we try to connect to the router, it just doesn't happen.

The SP5 are flashed with the last official i-mate WM5 ROM.

Does anyone has any idea what the problem maybe? I've read that the CCX Cisco extension has caused some problems with others HTC devices, but i don't knonw if this router uses CCX and if it does how to disable it.
