Google Takes Down Nexus Help Phone Number? - Nexus 7 General

Now when you call 1-855-83NEXUS (63987) it says "they are unable to take your call at this time".
They also removed the phone number from the device help page.
Stay classy Google.

Wow. Guess they didn't like getting yelled at from pre order customers.
XOXO Google

phone stolen from my friend need away to know theif number

a lady stole my friend sgs luckily she doesn't know how to use the phone at all, its been 3 weeks and i'm still trying to find where she lives
the phone still has the gmail account linked i installed plan b and androidlost but they both needs me to send a text message to activate them and i dont have her number
plan b doesnt seams to works as everyone knows that the sgs with stock rom has a very bad gps lock
my best lock will be with androidlost as it has many features
we already notified the police but with no info at all on her we wont be able to do anything
i would hope if there is any app that would send her phone number to he linked gmail account , or any other kind of apps that may help
The only apps that I know of that will do that are Avast! and Cerberus, but both have to be installed beforehand.
Don't know how to do what you want but i hope you removed any card details from your account so they cant buy things on the app store with your details.
Your gmail account should have the ip addresses it was accessed from this may be of use to the police. This can be found at the bottom right of your inbox.

What carrier is the phone with?
Sprint has a family locator plan that can be initiated remotely. I believe they offer a free 2 week trial.
You can try pulling the call history online with the carrier to get the numbers called
and even request that the phone be traced.
Samsung Galaxy SIII (SPH-L710)
Try to contact google, if you have a police report with the IMEI you might pull of a IP log of the people who accessed the acccount, from the you could go to the carrier company with your police report or the cops could do it and they'll be able to pull of her records by the IP.
I can't figure out why the US doesn't enfore locking the phones by IMEI, I remember my brand new iPhone was stolen last year and the cops couldn't do a thing. so I suggest you or your friend do this step by step and hope for the best.
sadly i dont live in the US so all these things are impossible , police wont do **** here , i'm still waiting for plan b to lock on gps but still no email , i'm keeping the gmail account still on the phone because it has no valuble info except for the contacts which are already backed up , and the person who stole the pone is so dump and cant even know how to install or uninstall apps

if only some one made an app that will look for a contact name and send an sms to it and the user can save that predefined contact to google contacts which will sync to the phone
so if the app is looking for Joe123 all you have to do is create a new contact in google contact with Joe123 and input you second phone number
then wait for it to sync with the stolen phone then install that app which will send you an sms with the theif number and possibly GPS if available
and once you get that number you can install androidlost and start controlling the phone
thats just an idea and i hope some one will make it true one day
I think the one WiredPirate linked to should work..
You can still install apps via the online play store can't you? Then why can't you install avast?

I got mine for free through HTC's Champions program. 250 deposit that they refund part of when you send your qualifying device back to htc. I'm lucky enough to have a Note II that is offering a full deposit refund :good: The downside of this program is I have to wait 2 weeks for them to ship it out to my store Not sure if the program applies to sprint corporate though I'm a 3rd party store.

It would appear this is the case, on the site they specifically sate "does not apply to corporate" and only list Preferred/Platinum dealers on the approved dealer list.
So, can employees buy it? Not some HTC program. I mean is it available for employees of Sprint to purchase from our company on our computer at work.
I am only asking because I live on the far side of town from the employee store. I would hate to make the trip for no reason.

No not yet. They put it up through there site to get people to trade in there galaxy s3 straight up (htc rep said it was aimed at the s3)
It might be a little while inventory is strained and still no black available. But on a positive note they have been quicker with employee availability minus the iPhone

My understanding is (got this confirmed by corporate when trying to get iPhone 5) that even if you buy the handset full price even if directly from manufacturer, you cannot activate it on an employee account or you risk getting on corrective action up to termination. This was huge deal when the EVO 4G came out. A manager in my district almost got fired for this...
Wait until sprint sprint sends communication to employees that you can buy it for swac accounts. Just my .02 cents

[Q] HELP! AT&T Ordered Wrong Color =(

Hi everyone, I just ordered my Note 3 this morning California time at 8:00am through calling AT&T because they had to do exceptional upgrade on my line and they are sending it overnight so I should receive it by 8pm 10/5/13 per ATT rep. Anyways, attached is the pic from this morning, as of 15 mins ago under 'Shipping Date' is now 10/4/13, shipped by UPS but no tracking # yet. I just checked the other email confirmation they sent me and I notice it's the wrong color! Apparently ATT rep ordered the black one, but I want the white phone. the 2nd pic shows item #6159A which equals to the black one after I googled it.
Has anyone gone through this problem? Anybody ordered wrong color and went to corporate store to exchange? Please help a newbie and i'm so sorry if i'm posting at the wrong thread.

The Corp stores are their own entity, so the CSR carries no weight with them. I honestly doubt they would even go as for as to call. Have them note your account, and surely the local store will do an exchange for an unopened item. Good luck to the Op.

UPDATE: Online petition to att to unlock bootloaders

Well sitting around today I figured I would e-mail samsung about the locked bootloader and how that would eventually kill off sales for those in the know on Modding, development and wanting ultimate control of there device. So I would suggest anyone who cares to should do the same. I think if we show them the love we have for Samsung devices as a community maybe they will rethink their strategy and start giving their fans what they want, and that is options, unlimited options to flash and mod the way we want. I mean heck isn't that what google released android for was to be open sourced. So please take time to send samsung an e-mail and voice your support to stop locking bootloaders and unlock our locked ones, cause we all know it's easier for them to do it and just pass it on to us than for a dev to do it and get nothing but thanks when I reality samsung should send him a check, but we know that won't happen.
UPDATE: Link to online petition below please sign and tell your friends. Also petition is linked to c.e.o. Randall Stephenson @ [email protected] so he will know of every signature we gain. So come on and let's try to get our device the freedom it and we deserve.

Samsung does not insist on locking the bootloaders. The carriers do. That's why both AT&T and Verizon bootloaders are lock, while Sprint and Tmobile and not. AT&T and Verizon's locked bootloaders have not dropped Samsung sales below that rival company, who leaves their bootloaders to be unlocked by the customer on that special webstite, whose sales of their top selling phone are fading based on what I am reading.
Did not know that. you would think samsung would be like "hey att don't do that people want access not restrictions" but like you said if the device is a top seller I guess on their end there is no reason to conform to what smaller groups of people like us think the state of the phone upon release should be. Well I'll send att an e-mail to might not do any good but I would like to try. Again if you support this send them(samsung, att, verizon, etc.) an e-mail and voice your response. Tell them we want freedom not a locked down p.o.s.

I personally received a cease and desist letter for harassing the ceo's secretary about the locked bootloader on my LG g2. The bottom line is 5% or less modify their phones.1% will actually complain about it and I would bet less than 20% of that 1 percent would actually write a letter. Att doesn't care about the opinions of .20% of its customer base. The only way to get this to work is to unite across all devices with locked bootloader's on at&t.

So fight back. Sim unlock, switch carriers and stick it to the man. That's the only way I can think of getting our point across, falling short of waiting out your contract or paying ETF's(if u have good credit, I dont.lol). If I have to starting tomorrow I will reach out to other att customers with other models with Locked bootloaders. This needs to happen regardless what majority we are, we spent damn hard earned money for open source OS not a closed one and why should it be left up to someone here on xda or another dev site to unlock this mess.

I do stick it to the man, the man keeps giving me free stuff. The last phone I bought was the LG g2. After a few weeks I had a bad pixel so they gave me a brand new note 3. A month after that I talked them into a free galaxy gear. When the boredom kicked in I got "the man" to take the note 3 back and send me a good flex. I sold the watch. In June I once again told them I wasn't happy with the flex so they told me to pick any phone I wanted, I chose this phone. Now it is aggravating and I probably wasted hours of my time harassing them but it pays off.

This is all on the AT&T end of things. If they could come to an agreement to have something similar to what HTC has where you go to their website and agree to void your warranty then the site unlocks it that would be great. We need to put pressure on AT&T for something like that as it would not cause them to lose money or their government contracts. But like someone stated earlier our demographic is so small that they don't care. Normal people just care that their phones work and can take good pictures. I can tell you that back when the Motorola atrix came out there was a petition to also unlock the bootloader it got tons of signatures and even the attention of Motorola and AT&T enough so that they issued a statement that they would provide a solution to the locked bootloader and guess what, the solution never came but we did get their attention so it is possible.

Yea I'm kinda feeling the blues I come from a galaxy S4G from t-mobile they jacked up my bill so I jacked there phone. I quit paying for it ( the contract that is, bad credit here. can't wait for that financial system to crash) and did a network unlock and threw it on sprint prepaid. After that I learned what little I know about root, roms, and flashing. I've made a few themes for the S4G with u.o.t. but that's neither here nor there.
Now I move on and wouldn't you know the second smart phone I have ever had is locked down like a terrorist in Gitmo (I mean sheesh even they get light 1 hour a day).

It is also possible that the rep knows when they are getting shipment. Not all of the T-Mobile stores are getting stock on the 12th. Some may get it in the evening. Some may get it day(s) later. Even with some of the recent launches, like the Note 4 some stores didn't have stock in the morning they got their shipment that evening.

That was my first thought. He just sounded confident it was LAUNCHING the 18th. It's not the biggest T-Mobile store. But its a newer one. I'm still shooting for Wednesday. My phone case will be here tomorrow. Google may be telling them when they go on sale. So they may have no idea. But chances are. They will try to sell me a Samsung when I walk in.

There is a user around here that posted a spreadsheet stating which stores will be getting it in or not, here . How true the data will be come Wednesday, don't know. But it seems legit enough.
I read a few articles this weekend that said T-mobile and other carriers will have extremely limited supply. So it will be like the play store and sell out in minutes I bet. So unless your in front of your computer hitting refresh the whole day I doubt you will get one. Its just like the Nexus 4 and 5 launch. It was several months after release that anyone could actually get one in a normal way.
Another local store said they might be getting them in this Wednesday. He will know tomorrow. That store was not on the list linked above. So we will see.
