Nexus 4 stolen... - Nexus 4 General

Happened in men's locker room, when I went swimming.
Already called AT&T and blocked the IMEI. O well.....too bad I can't get back my pictures/videos.

I think you should also call google so the it blocks it worlwide. Cause at&t only blocks it gor the US. Or something like that. Shame on the thief. Buy one, don't steal one.

Thanks for the tip. Will call Google.
Why these thieves failed to know that it's so stupid to steal smartphones now. What he got is basically a paperweight.

Use plan B while you still can unless they already factory reset it.

Bad luck OP. I heard a similar story a few days ago, someone nabbed an iPhone from a locker while the owner wasn't looking, luckily he had the find my iPhone app. They tracked the assh*le down a few minutes down the road from the gym. Give 'lookout' a go next time.

I'm the police, and I see it 50 times a week that someone gets their phone stolen and it sucks. I feel for you. My device is encrypted, Sim locked, and password protected and I have Cerberus on it. You can't be too careful, we have so many people getting robbed of iPhones we call it apple picking.
Cerberus is a must for any type of security on your phone. Google should buy it and make it standard.

That sucks I feel for you. But if the imei is now blocked they may end up turning it into lost and found so check there for a few days and now lesson learned and you will have backup software from now on I am sure.
Once again that sucks I hope you find it or when you sign into your new device accidently you backed up all your pics one day you had it and will get some back. Just wishful thinking

That sucks man. I'm sorry to hear it. I work out probably 6 days a week and always listen to music at a busy gym, I always use Bluetooth headset. Few times I left my nexus on a treadmill and didn't notice till my music became staticky as I've gotten far. I also always leave it by the courts when I run full court basketball, so do others. Crazy how mine hasn't been stolen yet. Knock on wood.

unfortunately we live in a world of untrustworthy people. Some people have their lives on their phones, and I would be crushed if mine was stolen. I will give Cereberus a try as well. on my N4 and my N7.

I just installed Cerberus on my phone and played with it for a few minutes. Has alot of options (some arent available if the phone isn't rooted). Installing it on the tablet as well, and will put this on my recommends list to others.

That´s not true.
The IMEI will be blocked by the AT&T and the N4 will no longer work with a sim card from AT&T network.
The problem is only one, the IMEI is going to be usable for other networks.

I guess Cerburus or any other anti-theft app will get wiped when flashing a factory image including user data.

Anyone using Google Wallet?

Excited to get my Nexus on Monday, and I was just wondering if anyone that has their phone is using Google Wallet yet?
I have really been wanting to use Google Wallet but have been locked in with Verizon who backs ISIS and says **** you to Wallet.

I have several times since receiving my phone yesterday; works great. Also was a nice conversation starter with the cute cashier behind the register.
I wanna use it so badly. I work at Cvs and I've pretty much been bragging about it to my colleagues. Can't wait to show off Google wallet.

Awesome, Glad to hear that! Haha.
I'm looking forward to trying it out for the first time. Maybe I can impress my wife? Lol but probably not.
I'm pretty new to how to use it/where you can use it ... I assume wherever the "Pay Pass" type things are you can use it? Nothing proprietary?
Sent from my VZW Locked and Bloated RAZR M
I used it for the first time today since getting my phone 2 days ago. The cashier looked at me like I was crazy and kept telling me to swipe my card. I had to stall her until it printed out a receipt. It will definitely take some time to catch on!

Yes you can select the one you would like to use at that point in time..... there is a " select card" button. And if you want to use another card you just hit that button again for that card
From what I've heard and seen, you can select which one to use when you open the app. Can't be 100% sure on that as I've never used it, but hopefully someone can confirm.

Pretty much anywhere that has a PayPass terminal. I say "pretty much anywhere" because even if they do have it, they might actually have it turned off. Best Buy is one such place that has the terminals but has it shut down (tried it in the past at 3 different locations with my Galaxy Nexus). I've read that it's supposedly because it costs them too much to operate, but who really knows.
Off the top of my head of places I've used it in that all work: CVS, Rite Aid, Duane Reade, McDonalds, 7-Eleven, and BJ's Wholesale Club.
To help you out even further, download the Mastercard PayPass Locator app. It'll bring up a list of locations near your current location that should have the terminals installed.

It honestly doesn't matter what you tell them. It'll process as whatever your selected card is, but if it's a debit card you won't have to put in your pin number. Tap, and go.

:( I was so close guys.

They have stock in the Sprint Store. I called yesterday playing dumb to see if I could get a store to sell early. I was told it would be released today. So I take my happy little but over to the Sprint Store as soon as it opens this morning. Lady at the counter tells me yes they have some in stock and yes I can purchase one. She goes back and grabs a box and brings it up to begin the purchase process.
Then a manager stops her. He informs her that they cannot sell them yet and he sends me on my sad little heartbroken way.

When I was in support and receiving lot of random stuff for folks I found a Windows desktop widget (of all things) that worked really well. You just put in the tracking info and it would show the latest real time info in the widget and you could even click on each delivery and see a map of where the last update had come in and when on the map.
Alas, I ordered from HTC and still have no tracking info.
UPS just left.. no phone! :crying:
Just checked mine and it show's 2nd day air as well, with a scheduled delivery of Monday, 4/22.... WTF. Guess we'll see

From my experiences it's always cheaper at a Sprint Corporate store. Example:I live next to a "sprint" marked store and I was buying a note II and they wanted $799 for it.. I then found my closest sprint corporate location and bought the phone from them for $600..

Employee returned phone

I received my LG phone back but it's locked and the disgruntled employee smashed the screen. I'm an note3 owner so I'm clueless to the LG Android platform. What are my best options here? I'm considering replacing the screen myself as I've done before on phones but to get into the phone and everything is not an option I assume.

If need be, you can pop the back cover off with a guitar pick, or similar. Its just like a Samsung once you get inside. Remove the battery, remove the rear housing, remove the motherboard, vibrator, antennae, etc.

And there it is. Had this happen at my place of employment. Said person was ultimately fired for a 2$ charge. Giving employees G2s to use, nice boss... Lol
Maybe it"s a factor to some, but idc if it's 2 dollars or 2000, cant stand a thief. I can understand the not bothering part as well, if you ever recover the price it will have cost you even more. Some former employee's of mine thought being the boss makes you rich so you wont notice, both are usually idiotic ideas. Why they think i owe them but they owe me nothing is beyond me.

You should really stop posting this in every thread. Not everyone is in the same boat and will still have to continue paying. Should I run this by tmobilehelp for verification and have them review their system for a true statement?
There will be people taking your words for it and will not go out of their way to check their account.
And for those of you all excited about keeping your "free phone", keep in mind tmobile can possibly blacklist all IMEI associated with your "free" phone and will not be possible to be used on any carrier if it comes down to that.

Yep, wish this whole ordeal is hoax and bs! The sad thing there's NO similar phone has the same specs and "well made", like the N7. :crying:
I plan on keeping mine until there's solid proof from what I understand it's the voltage regulator which is causing all these issues that's from an inside source at samsung. Anyone who knows anything about electronics knows that that can be reversed
I have a v one n a v two and they're working perfectly fine
It is probably no sense to keep that phone. After while Samsung will probably remotly brick all not returned phones to avoid any possible lawsuits. Plus no future updates.

all phones get hot while charging. I'm not even sure if all the reported exploding note 7 were using oem charger and cable. Cheap ones on eBay tends to create issues.

I want to keep my N7 however one thing has me concerned. Let's say I kept my N7 and miss the exchange /return window samsung and tmobile is offering (if there is one) and a good while later the phone goes nuclear. I'm pretty sure insurance is not going to cover it. I will still have a EIP and owe tmobile a couple hundred dollars... i dont think I want to end up owning for a none existent phone.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
I'm starting a technical post so who wants to join in can I have a couple theories and I have a couple of people in a verified some information for me why these phones are doing what they're doing i'm driving home right now from the airport so the post is a little screwed up because I used s voice
