NO takexis backxis!
A trade is a trade is a trade.. Tell him that the phone is resting peacefully and it won't come back anymore (like a dead pet)

i told him that but he wont buldge the worst part he says he is goin to block the phone...so the person who has the phone is gonna suffer

yea...like he can block phones? What is he? the Prime Minister of UK?

Lol, you both agreed on a deal. Was the phone in perfect working order before you gave it to him? If so your safe. That is rediculous. You guys traded, and after HE breaks it, he wants his phone back.

yes it was in good condition but if he blocks the phone i'm screwed and thats my worry

Why would he even want to do that? I doubt the person would be willing to give a phone back that they bought/traded for. What exactly is wrong with it.

it doesnt have 3g...there is a touch screen problem and battery is bad

Uhm, it's the UK version, why would he expect 3g unless he's on T-Mobile? Why doesn't he try a hard reset, if that doesn't work reflash to original ROM. I always buy two batteries when I get a new phone... Never know when I might need one.

yea...and you do not have any proof of the trade or what????

Still can reflash the original ROM. Maybe you could work something out, offer a partial refund of money even though you aren't obligated to do so.

no cuz the trade details were on the phone and the phone is sold

Motorola Questions

How is the RMA process for Motorola? Is it pretty much hassle free like Google Play?

I'm also wondering this. I have to RMA mine due to an issue with a spot on my camera.

I just called Motorola, 5minjtes later they said they are overnighting me a new phone with a return label no problem! I'm glad they have good customer service for issues like I had.

Other than having to wait for their stock to replenish, I've had no issues with the RMA process for my N6: quick and easy.

I was lucky because they had a blue 64gb in stock ready to ship. They asked what color I wanted and I said I don't care as long as its a 64gb. They said OK they only have blue so they sent me that one. I have a blue one now so that's fine, but I think it's funny how they would have happily sent me a white one if it was in stock.

Booo! I wasn't offered that option. "You have a blue, you're getting a blue." Lucky you, indeed.

For those who've received a RMA phone (any motorola phone) do you have to pay money, and did you received a refurbished device?

I didn't have to pay anything they send you a label so you can send the old one back. I don't know if its new or not because I get mine tomorrow via FedEx,however I would assume it's refurbished unless they don't have any refurbished ones yet then it will likely be new. Either way not worried because they sent it out fast, free, and it was easy to get replaced. I also have moto care should I actually break my phone accidentally which seems to be a good idea considering it's size. I'll report back tomorrow when my phone arrives, hopefully in the morning because you need to sign for it in person.

Mine was brand new.

They sent me a brand new phone sealed in the box

yes, how else can they make the money back if you do not return the broken device? For all they know you are faking it to get them to send you a 2nd phone so you can sell them both for profit.

They didn't put a hold on my CC, I double checked.

I just RMA'd my second N6 because of 1/2 the screen freezing randomly and the camera jumping... I love my Nexus I just hope this one works better. They are sending me a CW model because the MD is out of stock in the center and because its the same person I spoke with before who offered it. I hope this one doesn't have any issues because I don't want any other phone except for my Nexus 6

I had to pay $175, but that is because I broke my own screen...
As for the device, it was brand new, but I wouldn't expect that to last long as they start refurbing the returns.

WARNING!!! Fake vs Real Note 4

Warning!! I just came across this at work when my co-worker asked me to set up his phone. I realized something was wrong when I saw the screen and size of this note 4. I decided to show it off for those who is considering picking up one from ebay or Craigslist. See the comparison from a real note 4 and see for yourself. There's no real difference w/ the software but the hardware might be a concern since the battery(charger) is not Original it might blow-up or melt. The fake one is really flaky and has weird vibration and I would not recommend using it at ALL!!

yes yes we know all about the fakes for months. they are pretty good and not going to blow up on you.
also they are a good deal at $160 incl shipping from china.

you dont get random vibrations from it. the clone is a normal HDC manufactured 3G stock android phone with a note 4 "skin". You can root it. i've bought both a clone (910Fake off dhgate) and real (910U off ebay). they are both good.
Your clone is defective if it gives you random vibrations. Get it exchanged or replace it.

Unfortunately, some people aren't good at this and buy from Craiglist or somewhere with a no return policy so this helps them out to figure from the fakes. BTW, like I stated it's my co-worker not mines. I told him already it's fake.

I gave it back and said I can't touch this device because I don't want to be liable if anything happen. If it was mine sh*t I would do it but it's not.

Quick question buying nexus 6 on craigslist

Hey I'm looking at a few craigslist nexus 6s. If I activate it before I give the seller money, and it activates successfully, can the seller report it lost or stolen and deactive it after its already oon my line?
Thanks

if the owner has his account set up in it, youll never be able to activate it unless the owner removes his account.

its a new security system for the nexus.. even if you wipe the phone 10x and then flash the factory image, it will still ask for the previous owners security, unless he removed it. if it is removed, then it would be fine. and if he didnt, and you got the phone, he can reset his password, but it will take 3 days before it becomes affected. this is for people that steal devices, to keep you safe.

ask him. but chances are that he probably doesnt know that you have to remove it now(before you didnt have to). so, you might have to let him know that he has to remove his account first.

Yeah I'll ask. But is there a setting on the phone that says removed or not? Just a way to verify other than him just telling me its removed?

You should meet up at the carrier store you're trying to activate it at and have someone at the store make sure everything is ok and it activates. Also if you buy things from Craiglist a lot, you should have a receipt book and have the seller sign it and take a picture of the license plate or write it down so you can file a police report if things go sideways.

doesnt matter though, branded or not, they are exactly the same phone. but verizon employees dont seem to think so, they think it differs(but doesnt). many will even say that you cant use the unbranded one on verizon, but you can

Have a look at this:

That's not how craigslist scammers screw you. They usually have it insured and once they sell it they report it lost or stolen and you lose your money.

Selling Rooted Device!

Did you ever sold a rooted device? Knox tripped! Did you disclosed this fact? Or do you just flash the newest stock rom and say nothing?

The ethical thing would be to disclose it.

Put it on swappa

Swappa is for USA only unfortunately. For EU its probably eBay.
I always had OnePlus rooted and always said its rooted when selling, wasnt a problem there. Dont know what I will do with Samsung.
Like djm said, would be athical to say it, but warranty is lost so nobody would want it. I guess I'll sell it after 2 years, after warranty.

Bcuz warranty is lost and no one will buy it doesn't mean it shouldn't be disclosed still lol.. u almost make it sound like ur going to put it down as warranty good so it's more likely to sell lol

Hmm, maybe I was unclear. I always said its rooted when selling. And all my phones were rooted.
Never had problems with warranty, didnt need it, cause I am cautious with my pick and phone itself.
