Yes it's new but with a bad imei I think from canceling the contract
Never heard of that. Which rom are you on?

I think he means it is a stolen One and needs another imei so it can't be blocked (or unblock it right now).

Me think you may be right.
On that subject, you should stop using the data as you'll be charged with a pretty damn big bill

better if you post solution in case someone else have the same problem, help one another is the goal.
Sorry, I got so much crap at the beginning of the post that's why I didn't post my solution. The fix was that I accidentally had the 2g network box checked :/

You should edit your imei out of the picture 2 and 4... Very nice though, reminds me I actually need to replace the screen of my gnex

I'm sure one of my four nexus 4's will break how hard is it to replace/take apart ( similar to iPhone replacement. And how much did the parts cost.

5 posts since 2006............ he might not be back for a while. He will wake up tomorrow with a phone that no longer works and will begin to think he caused it during the screen replacement.

Someone can take it and blacklist the phone so it won't work on the network
IMEI removed, you need to be more cautious sometimes
Do you have access to the sim slot? If so, could you take a close up picture and post it. The sim ejection mechanism is what is causing the rattling noise in a lo of phones. I want to find a way to fix that.
PS. How did you get your hand on a replacement screen?

I got mine on a humbug search on craigslist. Person had plenty for $400. At first I'm thinking BS. This will be a scam trying to send me link once I respond. Nope. She let me buy a brand new HTC ONE for $370. Was definitely not expecting that. I was just looking at one on Amazon for $630 with my employee discount. But didn't bite. What was your best off contract deal for the ONE?

Sounds a little too good to be true. Probably, she's going to open a line, get it for $200, then cut it off, which might leave you with a bad ESN. Be careful.

Nah, Sprint said it was good. Phone is already activated. She had plenty and had a Galaxy Note 2 of her own .

Great deal if you got it directly from her and they are clean.
I would have bought 2 at that price.

Which phones, you mean something like a Motorola StarTAC?
Nowadays phones have incredible razor thin profit margins. It cost HTC around that much money to even make the ONE.
As far as the text message goes, who knows if he what he was selling and you was attempting to buy. It could have been a phone but which phone?
You might have gotten a good deal but I'm pretty sure that phone isn't on the up and up.

Sure its on your account now. But if or when a retailer finds out the phone was back doored they could call Sprint and the phone will obviously be traced back to you. So you're not out the clear yet.

I'd say "not high." The HTC One wasn't supposed to be unlockable with their Dev site on att but it was. Maybe this will slip through the cracks.

As with previous HTC devices, they are unlockable on HTC Dev until a day or two before street date. The AT&T and Verizon models will be locked, and will have a Developer Edition. This was already confirmed by Mr. Punit on Google+.

They were definitely still unlockable a while after street date. Hell they may still be. I haven't checked.

Hey guys, does anybody know if the nexus 6 sold through Sprint will be carrier locked? I am on t-mobile and don't want to wait for the 19th so I'm thinking about buying the phone at full price and taking it to t-mobile but I don't want to try this if it's locked to sprint.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

You probably won't receive it before then anyway ....it says stores won't have inventory until the week of the 17th not on the 17th but maybe who knows
But either way, is it locked to sprint? I believe the nexus 5 was unlocked right from the factory.
