I got this Nexus One by trading my G1 and $125.
Am currently on T-Mobile - contract up in March 2010
Ive been getting quite a few offers for my Nexus.
- Two people on craigslist are asking 300-350.
My phone is literally 10/10 condition and comes w/
everything , casemate case.
You think I should sell it for 300-350 now?
Should I wait till March 2010 when my contract is up? or do you guys think it will drop in resale value way more by then.
also do you think 300-350 is fair if cash is given

Do you need the money? Do you really want to sell it?
Only way I would sell my Nexus One is if I needed the money and I had another Nexus One already to replace it.
If you like the phone and don't need the money then why sell it?
Not a lot of better devices right now. Would hold on till contract ends or if something u like shows up. But it really depends on u'r needs: money, etc...
Practically all new androids are better than it. Choose wisely.

I am in a similar position, been offerend 350CDN for my Nexus but there really aren't any other phones out there that offer anything substantial over it to sell it... I like the Galaxy S, but until it is officially on Froyo it seems to buggy and really only has the bigger screen as the biggest reason to upgrade. I'm holding off until there is a substantial reason to upgrade.

Please enlighten us of these "new androids"
I dunno guys, I love my Nexus too but I'd sell it if I could use an EVO or a Droid X on GSM I think. The screen pisses me off to end on the N1 the lack of accuracy, the effed up multitouch and the horrible performance of the screen in sunlight drive me crazy. This is an amazing phone but HTC had to go and screw up the whole package by choosing a ****ty screen. Coming from an iPhone 3GS I can tell you that this screen is by no means at par
Better than N1

Gladly! New androids as in practically every android made after the Nexus One.
Verizon - Droid X, Droid 2, Droid Incredible, HTC Merge, Droid R2D2, & Samsung Fascinate
Sprint - Evo 4g
Tmobile - HD2, Samsung Vibrant (if you can stand touchwiz) & G2
And these are the phones that I can think of off the top of my head. If you want to check out the European phones: Desire, Desire Z, Desire HD.
So to reiterate, yes the Nexus One was a good phone, very nostalgic, set the tone for the new devices that came out. But with that being said, the new devices that came out are better than the Nexus One. So read up, pick one you like, and either sell the N1 or hold onto it for sentimental value.

i don't really understand caring about wether or not you're on a contract. put the SIM in and use whatever phone. surely you're not considering LOCKING YOURSELF into another 2 or 3 year commitment for the sake of a $4-500 phone ?
as far as all those being better, the hardware specs are very similar. the carriers... oh man, CONTRACTS ! no thank you. i'll stick with the tmo pay-to-play non contract.

The no contract route is pretty cool. If there was a possibility of me leaving Tmobile, I'd go contract free. Since I know I'm not going anywhere, I apted to sign the contract.

Yea. Before I paid Google 500+ I did my research about my nexus, and the math. Figured up over 2000+ dollars saved over two years using voip and Google voice, so I bought my nexus flat out and have been smiling since. Benchmark test wise I'm still over the Droid X and along with evolution I don't like the size. The g2 has 800 MHz =( and I don't use QWERTY or HDMI out. So a year after the purchase I would make it again today =)
N1 running psfreedom recovery and MIUI! sent via XDA app =D
All those phones mentioned have identical processors. Nothing running 1.3-1.5 ghz out yet. From what the news was saying is that towards the end of this year and begging of next we will have faster processors on smart phones.
I'd say hold off on selling your nexus or if you do, you aren't really getting anything better spec wise, maybe design is what you are looking for.

Keep the Nexus !
If you are wanting to stay with a certain carrier, your Android choices can tend to become very limited. I've been with Tmobile for years, happy, not moving.
My phone choices.... I dont really see any phones offered yet as being worth
signing another two year contract for.
I mean nothing fantastically better that my Nexus.
Heres what I mean, two years ago I was on the original G1 prebuy.
The Nexus is very drastically better than the G1.
I just dont see the TMO phone thats drastically better than the N1.
And if you have a Nexus then you have TMO or AT&T and AT&T's Android phone selection is worse than TMO's.
I'm holding pat especially since the N1 gets the updates months before any other phone does.
MyTouch was supposed to get Froyo "soon", and months have gone by, still no update.
Its almost like TMO would rather just keep everyones attention on its once a month new phone release than update the older phones.
When I do get a new phone I will keep the N1 till I'm sure the new one is better.
I've yet to see that phone though.
^ very true.
What also worries me is that none of the announced phones that are due to be released in this Q of the year are a whole lot better than Nexus One.
But as someone else said, I love my N1 except for the screen. The screen pisses me off so much!!
The G2 and the new mytouch are good replacements for the N1 in my opinion. Granted I'm not too impressed with the new mytouch overall design, nevertheless, the specs are nice and the FFC is a plus.

There is one guy that called me an idiot because I was thinking in going to Sprint
In all honesty, I do believe the 4G Network from Verizon is amazing, and Samsung Galaxy S II is NOT 4G (let's say 3.5G or whatever)
Bottom line it won't reach 14000 kbps/s like the 4G LTE Devices of Verizon
So Samsung Galaxy vs HTC Thunderbolt, yeah it might be a better device but on the other hand the speed of the network is not as fast
So I don't see a clear winner, I will give a slight advantage to Samsung Galaxy S II on sprint.
I have to pay around $50 per month to stay in Verizon (since my family all have Verizon), so that was another good thing about them, it's a little more economical for me
But anyway, some guy told me that the HTC VIGOR will be an awesome device from Verizon, so what I did was
1) Buy cash $260 HTC Thunderbolt (new device, or as good as new)
2) I have my credit in Verizon still (I can use it when HTC Vigor arrives)
I would like to thank the person that recommended me the HTC Vigor, I was really disapointed with Bionic
For the people that said that I work for another carrier, haha, I'm just a user, and I was EXTREMELY disappointed with the BIONIC
Thanks guys, thanks especially to the guy that recommended the Vigor, I am 99% sure it will be a great device
Good luck...bye bye

G2x was a great phone, and despite LG's various fails it was corrected by our devs. But, as a fandroid, you have that little voice in the back of your head making your life miserable when there is a nexus annouced, or even better hardware for that matter.
I just bit the bullet and ordered an unlocked GN. $696 and some change, including shipping and bank fees. God help me, this android addiction is getting out of hand
It's the GSM flavor, imported of course. Who want's to deal with Verizon and the mockery they have made of the Nexus brand? F*ck you Verizon, Google - I am disappointed in you for being Verizon's B*tch The European GN is the true Nexus.
Any other fandroids out there want to join me?
MOD EDIT: REMOVED LINK
It is just a pre-order for now, but stock is expected in 2 days. And if your cautious, handtec is a reputable vendor, pay with Google Checkout and your butt should be covered

The Droid RAZR is $649 off contract, add tax and your looking at an easy $700+ It's 16GB as well, only difference is the lack of an SD card slot on the GN Oh well, it's not that bad - my galaxy tab doesn't have an SD card slot either and that doesn't bother me at all

I paid around $600 (after tax and all that) for my Vibrant off contract. The fact that this is penta-band and allows you to use it with any carrier is definitely a plus and if you pick good no-contract plans, you can easily come out way ahead of getting a subsidized phone on contract.

I didn't really post as a farewell, it was to reassure anyone who was planning on switching to the Nexus I never left, and I plan on keeping my NVFlash Guide updated even after I do
I wont make the same mistake again, i will wait a couple of months after it comes out, see development, then maybe buy one. Got g2x on 4/20 early in the morning and even tho i got a good phone, NVIDIA (dumb asses) really are holding devs down.
Why do you guys insist on writing such a stupid comments "Why are you posting this"
"We don't care, GTFO"
Don't you have anything else to do other then to troll the forum?
It's his/her choice. This does not mean that he should stopped posting on this forum and move on to his new forum.
I will be buying N9 in near future and I will continue to see how development of this phone is moving forward as well as participate in discussions.

I was going to make fun of you for having an EDGE only phone.. then I looked at the 4g icon on my G2X which equates to EDGE speeds despite claiming to be connected to 4g....
Can I have your old G2X? Mine got scratches on the screen on day 2
The way it works is you sell the G2x for $200. Use the money and pick a contract phone with high resell value. Sell it for the price of the Nexus. Live happily.
The G2x is still sweet. But I'll probably pick a Nexus up on Verizon through work to save from paying a personal cell. Depends on development and issues. I'm still torn.
G2x - 2.3.7 CM7
Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV

Omar, I hope the GN goes well for you! I've been itching for one, but I told myself I'm gonna stick with the G2x for a while since for the past 5 years I've been getting a new phone every year, hahaha. I want to see how far I can take this thing.
Plus... I don't think I have the dough to just shell out, lol.

The GSM Nexus has a pentaband HSPA+ radio, meaning you will get 4G on both T-Mobile and AT&T
is a nice phone ^^
So VZW is offering a 2 line plan, 10gb to share, unlimited t+t, for $80 (and my employee discount will make it even cheaper) until December 31st! My gf and I are going to go in together to get this since we each pay around $70-$80 for 2gb plans already. Only problem is I have to upgrade my phone before I switch or I will lose my upgrade eligibility. I hate all the other phones out right now and really want a N6.
So I ask my fellow XDA members to speculate whether or not the N6 will be available on VZW before 12/31/14. I know there is no date set, im just looking for some opinions.
TIA and I hope some of you get the same deal as was offered to me. BTW on the commercial it says that the 10gb share plan is $110 but when I called to ask they said it was only $80.
When you sign up for the new service, won't you be able to get two devices at the upgrade-subsidized price anyway?
No because my GF and I are combining plans and she just got an upgrade a month ago.
My guess is no, but there's nothing close to concrete yet.
No one knows. You can guess as well and have a 50/50 shot at getting it right just like everyone else...
Pretty sure the $80 is just the data portion. You'll need to tack on $40 per device on top of that.

Did Verizon change how family plans work? I thought that if you sign up for two lines, you get to buy two devices at the on-contract price. Since your GF is not eligible for an upgrade, you should still have one line left that is eligible to purchase at the on-contract price?
I think it will. Probably right before Christmas. They want the droid turbo to get all the attention before they put out the Nexus 6.

Or just get a new iphone with your upgrade and sell it on craigs list or ebay and use the money to buy a nexus 6 off contract from google or moto ect and use that on verizon.
if you dont care much about custom ROMS or root , pick up the droid turbo, I play with one for a bit from a friend, is a SICK device 3900mah battery, 805 chipset, 5.2 qhd display and stock android with moto futures, cant go wrong with it

Droid Turbo sucks IMO, no SD Card and ugly as hell. Also I have a bad feeling the Dev community will be small. No thanks, i'll pass. This is my chance to get a Nexus device on VZW, im all for it and will wait as long as I have to.
Dont want to turn this thread into a device conversation. Im just looking for opinions on whether or not ppl think the N6 will drop before 12/31/14 so I can get that sweet deal.

According to the specs I've seen, the Nexus 6 won't have an SD card slot either, have you heard differently?
My opinion is the Nexus 6 will be available easily before 12/31/2014.
No it wont have an SD card slot BUT it does come in a 64gb option unlike the DT.

What? I was just at the store and they said only 32gb. Maybe he meant they only had 32gb in stock. I stand corrected, thanks!
I have it on good authority that Verizon will see the Nexus 6 before 12/31/15. Not sure about 12/31/14

Just got back from my local VZw store (Corporate location 42nd st NYC) and received some bad news. I know, I know, CSR's suck and never know what they are talking about. That being said I kinda know one of the guys that work there, he's pretty much who I talk to every time I go to the store. He's pretty good with the info he gives so I trust him. He said VZW has no plans to release the N6. FML. He said he spoke with a bunch of higher ups because ppl kept coming in/calling about the N6 and none of them had any idea that VZW was even gonna carry it. He said there's no chance it comes out this year. If it comes out at all it would be closer to spring of next year. I hate VZW so much......
My question now is, if Best Buy will have stock this week why cant we buy from them and activate it on VZW? I know BB has VZW phones so what would stop them from selling me and activating a N6 on VZW?

Man that hurts the soul! Hopefully I can take my G Play Pre ordered N6 and activate by just taking the micro sim out of the ol M8 and profiting? I spoke with a play store rep in the Nexus threads that he assured that my N6 would work out of the box with VZW when I received it? Crossing fingers
I would think if it wasn't going to be available on vzw, moto wouldn't have wasted time/resources to get all the vzw network bands built in.

I brought mine this month, well last month and it arrived this month here in New Zealand. I just wanted a unique follow up to my unique amazon fire phone that I sold to my brother cause he dropped n smashed his nexus 5 (again) so I sold him the fire phone and got me the g flex. D950 the 4g works here too (yay!!)
I love it not having to charge the phone every day but half the time I do just out of habit from previous phones lol
The only complaint I can think of at this stage is no OIS.
With enough testers and persons to help we can get a build of Android 6.0 ready. I'm a tester just waiting for the devs. The LS995 and other variants have root and recoveries for 4.4.2. Just no initiative. I would've done it already but, i have little knowledge in ROM and recovery building.
