[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sassyness77:
Okay first off, this is a thread also to show all the people who bombarded me with smart comments about how i WILL definitely recieve a $200 ETF from T-Mobile for cancelling my plan for my nexus...I did not.

This isn't a mean thread either, I just wanted to let everyone know that this did work, So here i am even after being told that I would NEVER come back to say if it worked or not, because i was scared of the "flaming."

So here I am waiting for Google to charge me the $150 ETF, but it still hasn't happened and it has been over 2 months since i cancelled my T Mobile account.

So here I am (Lucky or maybe just waiting) with my nexus which now only has cost $212 without a contract :D

Order with T mobile contract for $179

Taxes and all that stuff brought it to $212

T MOBILE ETF $0

Google ETF 150??

Final price $212 (for now)

So has anyone cancelled and recieved the ETF yet? I cancelled and the T Mobile rep said to just hand the nexus back over to the fedex guy so maybe T mobile screwed up something but in the end im sure google knows that that phone is in use right now? But also this was close to the time when the nexus store was Closing or they ran out of phones so maybe that confused something? Or most likely, I am just waiting and will recieve it someday.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATnTdude:
Nobody else likes you, because you're taking stuff at someone else's expense. When you cancelled T-Mobile, they charged back the commission that Google used to subsidize your phone. Google is out a few hundred bucks right now. You seem to think it's all okay because YOU didn't have to pay what you owe. That makes you a parasite, an unrepentant one at that since you seem happy to brag about getting away with it (for now at least).

This isn't howardforums, if you want to brag about exploiting companies, go there for a receptive audience.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sassyness77:
Okay, whoa. I'm sorry you feel angry about this but to call me a parasite? Calm down. As if this truely hurts Google, all I did was find a smarter way to save money in all honesty.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
wtf you talking about. what do you think googles ERF is for? if google feels the loss they will charge them for it ... @OP

id wait 4 months before celebrating...thats when they will realize tmos not paying the subsidy
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
Not sure how, but you're confusing dishonesty for intelligence. Parasite was the appropriate term, as what you did amounts to stealing and fraud.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATnTdude:
If you do not like the term, don't be a parasite. You KNOW a Nexus One doesn't cost what you paid for it. You KNOW

someone

had to take that loss. It doesn't matter if they never charge you back, that's just your feeble attempt at justifying yourself. Off the top of my head, I can think of a few ways to dodge the charge (most of which are more clever than what you're taking pride in). I didn't do any of them because...wait for it...I'm not a parasite.

I am fully aware of what the ERF is for, apparently you don't, so I'll break it down for you.

1) HTC makes, sells and delivers a N1 to Google, HTC charges Google somewhere around, but probably somewhat less than, $530.

2) T-Mobile pays Google a commission for every 2 year contract signed over a N1. New activations pay more than upgrades, which is why the N1 costs more when upgrading your plan.

3) Google takes this commission, and gives it to you by subsidizing the phone down to as low as $180. That $350 difference comes from T-Mobile paying Google.

4) You buy the phone, and pay for the service. Google either gets paid immediately (and receives a chargeback if you cancel or downgrade) or doesn't get a check until you've had the service for 120 days (not sure which, since I'm not privy to the specifics of their agreement, but it's one or the other, probably the former as that's the general way the US cellphone market works).

5) T-Mobile, like most US carriers, uses a billing system which will automatically apply sales commissions on activations, and chargebacks on cancellations. As such, the moment you cancel, T-Mobile's systems take back their money.

6) This leaves Google out the amount of your subsidy ($250-$350), which is essentially the cost of the phone, minus what you paid for it($180-$280). Whether or not they (rightfully) charge you for that loss is irrelevant to the fact they took a material loss.

Welcome to how the real world works. For more info, go to college, or get a job.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Google changed their ERF because they felt they could take the loss vs customer backlash who would be forced to pay $750 for the nexus if they werent satisfied with Tmobile. It used to be $350, now its $150. Thats called business.

You do not know the deal that tmobile and google made with each other for the specific subsidy amounts. Tmobile pays google once the 120 days of service are up

FYI i have a B.S.S.E and a minor in business. Its not being a parasite for using valid methods to get a phone for cheap. I dont think you have any understand how business works but you just like to throw around things everyone already knows and thinks it helps your argument...but it doesnt
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATnTdude:
The "subsidy" is obvious, $250 to $350, because the subsidy is what YOU get. I never said what the "commission" is, and acknowledged I cannot know when the payment is sent, or the exact amount. Try to use the correct word when arguing with people.

...but since you've basically agreed that T-Mobile is financing everything, I rest my case.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martin0285:
Perfectly stated.....

This thread is going to turn into nothing but flaming... @Op, you knew that starting the thread.... Why? Why do it? Just to brag and wait for how many different ways people can call you out on "ripping off a nexus one?".....

I'm not hear to discuss the issue of getting an n1 for cheap, just to call you out on posting a thread KNOWING you'll get nothing but negative responses..... A lot of that going on on XDA lately and it's kinda sad.....
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
The last part of that statement WAS to tell you when google got their payment.

Tmobile does NOT give google the payment if you cancel your contract. Thats when google steps in and gets their "commission" from you instead of tmo

When you buy the phone from google, you pay google 179. When you have been with tmobile for 120 days, tmobile pays google the rest of the money at their agreed upon rate (between 150-350, we dont know) if you cancel, google takes 150 to take their material losses.

Tmobile isnt footing anything, google is. and google makes sure they dont take a loss from this kind of situation. Note the phone's hardware costs $175, so the immediate material loss is already paid for when you buy the phone.

I downloaded the free version then upgraded to the pro version using Paypal option but it never upgraded and stayed on the free version.

I contacted customer support and they have been very helpful trying to get this sorted.....they sent a new user.info file for me to add to the directory to upgrade but my camera360 directory has disapeared and there is no way to get it to show again.

I have used backup pro to restore original app, uninstalled and installed the new updated version but the camera 360 directory does not show.

Anybody got any ideas to whats going on?

Here is background.

I use both Fresh and DC roms. This issue is in both.

I have unmounted sd card

I have rebooted phone

I can access and play files using astro.

I have installed app after app that claim to refresh with no avail.

I have cleared the music play in app manager.

A wipe data is the only way to get this music to show. This now is my only option, but I nandroid back as I dont want to restart from scratch.

Does anyone have or know of a working way to refresh the damn library.

Then switch back to HTC Music, and if you see a rotating animation (aka, loading animation) on top right - it worked. Give it few mins and it'll update your music library. Takes no more than 2 mins on my 16gb card

I'm running a stock Desire and have problems with bluetooth keyboard drivers e.g. "BlueKeyboard JP" not working. I believe this is down to the stock bluetooth implementation on the Desire as other Android devices are working with the driver, including the N1.

So, here it goes.

First, I know how to backup the SD card. I'm an I.T. Analyst for a living, so I have the basics, +some, but not sure how to do this on MW...

Over the last 4-5 days of having this HD2, I have made LOTS of mods to it, CHT, reg edits, etc. As I did the reg edits I backed up the reg file every little while in case of catastrophic failure. Now I am at a stopping point (for the time being), so I want to backup.

I'd like to be able to back up everything as a whole. In other words, instead of backing up the SD Card to one place, then the restry export, then the contacts, etc; I'd like to be able to backup the whole ROM. That way, if something ever happened and I had to completely reinstall the OS, I could do it from this backup and not have to install apps and setting and edits individually.

Is there a way to do this? Please tell me there is (and mean it)!!! lol
[HD2 General] watcher64:
No, there is not a way to backup your whole ROM ... And I mean it!!

But, there are ways to save all your settings and apps ...

The one I use is spb backup, it is something you have to pay for, but it is worth it, creates self installing backup files, so it even restores itself ...

It has a mod called "ROM Upgrade" that is supposed to restore apps and settings but not touch system files, it seems to work very well ...
