Guys, I have my rooted Eris for sale. Just got a Droid Incredible, so I don't need it anymore. Nothing wrong with it, overclocks to 710 just fine. Any questions?
$100
Bump.... this thing is still available. Make me an offer, please!

How would I pay for this if I don't have paypal. I'm a dev on here, I have 2 ROMS out and just recently dropped my phone in the ocean so I really would like to have another Eris but I can't have a paypal account.
google checkout have options to send bills like paypal?
I don't use paypal either so if you want to send me a money order that would work fine
Western Union is always an option or better yet

COD by the US postal service. He does not pay you get it back in the mail.
I'm open to anything. Mailing a money order seems easiest, but makes no difference to me
No offense to you but the only problem with this is he might send the money order and never get the phone. With COD he gets the package at his door before paying and you don't have to worry about him stiffing you.
Very true, again, I'm down with whatever

+1 .... no offense to anyone but I have to agree that this seems like the best option for both. But that's just my opinion

I think i'm going to have to stick to craigslist. I'm in the Army and as some know, you cannot go very long without some type of contact method or you can get in serious trouble. It was a good idea at the time because it's a really good deal. However, buying a phone from someone on the "mainland" means waiting a while for shipping which is something I don't have enough rank for lol. So sorry if I seem like an a$$ but I think i'm going to just get something on craigslist that way I can get it locally on the island and have it almost instantly. Thanks a lot though man, I really appreciate you willing to work with me on it! Now let's hope this tsunami doesn't sweep me and my family out to the ocean! LOL
Don't sweat it, stay safe!
Bump.... this thing is still available. Make me an offer, please!
So is it still available?
So is it still available?
It is not, I sold it
I should have caught this when it came up, but ANY sale of devices belongs in the marketplace.
I have a Fascinate and will be getting a Bionic in the mail shortly.
I am just wondering what a Fascinate is worth with an extra battery, external charger, seido case (black), extra screen protector (real look), and original charger and cable without an SD card?
why don't you donate the fascinate to a dev like sixstringsg?
Sadly my rap career never took off. [joking]
Just trying to get a baseline and see if I can at the very least get something out of it that will lessen the dent on the wallet and maybe lessen the death-grip on my throat from the wife.

This; he really deserves it and the glitch kernel could be improved a lot if he had one. Unless you're in a tight spot and in need of money then it would be a great move, and you can't really get much for the phone. Not much more than what the accessories would be worth, since Verizon has a lot of newer and better phones now.
I got a Fascinate off Ebay for $135 and came with usb cable, charger, extra battery and extra battery charger. Donating to a dev would be awesome.

You've all got valid points. Right now I wont make any rash decisions or promises. Just wondered is all.

+ 1 I'd probly sell mine too but I'm a broke college kid otherwise I'd donate mine to a dev while ppl stool had the phone if I was berthing rid of mine. Your call but I say donate it to a dev. Or raise $ to send it to a dev like with the omfgb crew do u can get some $ and give the phone to a dev. Just maybe get donations from ppl who want the phone to go to a certain dev. Like sixstringsg for example lol

I just set it up as a SIP based phone and it works pretty well. Think that I just might use it as a house phone for awhile.
Statutory Warning : This post is SUPER long! May cause delusions, dehydration, rage towards Motorola and/or VZW or depression! For those who can't withstand this post, skip to the end for a one line summary.
So it has been over 8, dreadful and painful months with the DX2. And to dull this pain, I had you guys to follow and read up on. Great devs and their ROMs, Pepperm1nt, Nitro, the_guy_who_made_liberty (Oops, I dunno the name of the guy), Ryman222 for his Molten (which incidentally was my first ROM) and then comes mastafunk, aceoyame and the one and only Dragonzkiller!!! He was THE guy who let me have hope over the last few months (of course, with respect to my phone! If he was the sole reason I'd have hope in my life over the last few months then something is SERIOUSLY wrong with me... ).
There are many others like Moonshadow, TransX2, TravisdroidX2, iBolski (who was the inspiration for my BBB Moto attack), gaad0701, antp121 , Sandso9, ashclepdia(OMG! How did I forget you!) ad infinitum! All of you guys helped me have fun around in these forums and gave me numerous thanks as well. I am very grateful to you and will definitely miss you when I leave. So I'll still pop in every now and then so that I don't completely miss you guys!
Anyway, coming to the actual news! I got a Droid Incredible 2, currently being shipped by VZW with a back plate and a battery as well! Swell! Here is how this happened.
Over the last 1-2 weeks, I got very active in pursuing my Moto and VZW complaints. So, many phone calls, emails and chats have been exchanged. But in short, nothing significant emerged. Then I heard people complaining to VZW and getting a call from an engineer and being offered a Gnex!!! Naturally, I was jealous, but also inspired and motivated to attack VZW to score a new phone.
I got a call from VZW in response to my online complaint. I seized this opportunity to get in touch with a Tech support rep and elaborated and bemoaned about my phone's countless issues. She was sympathetic and TRIED to check if I could possibly get a different phone. Unfortunately I couldn't. BUT she said something that intrigued me! She said that I did not hit the threshold that would make me eligible to getting a different phone. I was told that I needed to order ONE more DX2 replacement device before I can get a different phone. You see, I only ordered one replacement so far. So I hatched a plan.
I ordered a second replacement DX2 (making it the third DX2 I had, the first being the one I purchased and the second and third being the replacements). I ordered it yesterday and I received it today.
Then, I didn't waste anytime tinkering and checking this phone. Instead I activated it and immediately called VZW claiming that this phone had all the issues my previous 2 phones had as well. They lied to you (Moto and VZW) so why not you lie as well! I told them I was not happy and that I was sure that getting another DX2 as a replacement will not help either as it seems to be an issue with all Droid X2's. I added that I was told if I had issues with this phone too, then they may be able to offer me a different model. She looked into it and said, YES, they can offer me a different model!!! Huzzah! Success, finally!
I went through the process and was told that I can have either the HTC Dinc2, the Motorola Droid 3 or the older Samsung Fascinate. Samsung fascinate!? Bleh! No thank you! Droid 3!!!??? Are you ****ing serious!!!??? It is like from one hell to another!!! Not only does it have a locked Bootloader, but it is not even confirmed to get ICS as of now! Plus, I will not go for Droid 3, purely on moral and ethical grounds. I will NOT be doing business with a company that plainly doesn't give a **** about its customers, like Motorola!
On the other hand, HTC has unlocked the Bootloader for the Dinc2 AND it has added Dinc2 to its ICS upgrade list!!! . Plus as per XDA forums, Dinc2 has LOADS of ICS ROMs. Now that is my sort of company!
So sign me up for a HTC Droid Incredible 2 I said to the customer care rep. And she did.
To others wanting to ditch this phone and get a new one like me, the following are some tips and tricks.
1. Complain to VZW. CALL Tech Support: 866-221-4096.Tell them all the faults of your phone you can think of. Refer to this list if you need help : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24528918&postcount=12
2. Tell them that you checked online forums and it appears that ALL DX2's have this problem. So, request them to give you a different device.
3. Now, if you had one or less replacements so far, you MAY not receive a different device. Still, try your best to push for it by stating the systematic issues with it and claiming that ALL DX2's have it. No harm in trying. If not, do what I did and order a replacement DX2 first. It won't cost you anything and you can order another replacement the very next day once you receive this one.
4. After you crossed the threshold of 2 or more replacements, repeat Step 1 and 2. Clearly mention that you have talked to a customer rep previously and that they told you that if you are still facing problems with the device, and if you have had significant replacements (the magic number is 2) then you can be considered/will be eligible to get a different device. Even though this may not have happened, the fact is true and I can confirm it. So, no harm in claiming that you were told as such. Repeat that you are sure and 100% positive that the problem won't be solved by a replacement DX2 and that you really want a different device.
5. After the VZW rep agrees, which I believe he/she will and should, go through your replacement options, choose the device you like best and proceed with ordering it as a replacement. Thank your lucky stars you reached this step. Go to your favorite church/temple/mosque/other spiritual place and pray/donate/do social or community service if you got REAL lucky and got a Gnex or may be even a Razr (though it is Craparola's Razr!!!)
6. Once your device arrives at home, close your eyes and return Craparola's DX2.
7. Profit! Sit back, relax and enjoy your new phone and the new found freedom it provides you!!!
The end!
Once again, I am glad I made SO many friends in this community. I am grateful for the entertainment, fun and thanks you guys gave me! I will pop in regularly and check up if Moto did anything right OR if you guys got CM9/ICS via DZK, some other dev or Moto!!!
May you survive this ****storm and hopefully emerge victorious by making Moto do what you want or be bailed out, like me, via VZW!
Cheers!!!
TL;DR? Well read this: Pained by Motorola and its DX2, I got bailed by VZW. Got myself a HTC Droid Incredible 2, yippee and Woohoo!
If Cspire had better lineup of phones then I would take the same route as I love to hack and fiddle with my devices. But I can't so I'm stuck with it. The phone itself is honestly the best I've had. I'm just disappointed that I can't toy around with it much.
bye...
it was a good run. gave me hope with all the work you did to try and get moto to fix this piece of ****. good luck in the VIVOW (sick codename btw) world. i would go for a dinc2 but my contracts up within the next month. thnks for the shoutout btw and you WILL be missed
EDIT:
i though about it for ten minutes... so why not give it a shot what phone number did you call? basic customer support?
Wish you would have done this a month ago! Oh well I'm happy with what i got now lol

UPDATE: My phone is being shipped! Overnight! But there is a god damn weekend in the middle, so I must wait till Monday!!! :/
Oh, CAN'T WAIT!!!
I picture MoonShadow-NM saying: "Patience, little grasshopper"!!!
By the way, all the time I was talking to the customer rep and then she said she can send me a different model device, my hand was shaking and I was giddy with excitement!!!
Enjoy and good for you. I have been currently watching swappa for another device. I agree with your post and you never know I will see what device I end up on next.
Yea I'm waiting on my BBB complaint right now. Its been only a couple days but I'm holding out hope that I can get something better. As it is now, I love this phone but all the problems make me want another kind. I have a year left on the contract and don't know when early upgrade is but I don't plan on buying another device outright.

I was offered the Droid Incredible 2 as well, but sent it back. Rooting is complex, and S-Off? What is that? I read the sticky threads, and found out that you actually need to downgrade the phone to root it.
The phone is slow in comparison to the DX2, the stock launcher/homescreens are not customizable, no Bluetooth auto-answer, and I would not be able to tether it without paying another $30 for data that I am already grandfathered in for unlimited.
My phone was fine until I paired my Bluetooth headset, then all the issues started. I need a phone that can handle heavy Bluetooth usage and Bluetooth music listening.
I guess I will wait until August for my upgrade date.

Yea If I'm only offered that I think I'll tell them to try harder, a lot harder. As if I'm going to take a device that has a smaller screen and was less money then what I bought my phone for.

after much *****ing and crying to VZW, the lady offered me an early upgrade. not much to be excited for bc my contract was up june 18 but this weekend... the rezound is 50$. ordered and on its way! i told her all my problems with the phone, she asked her supervisor if i could get a different replacement. after she said no, (never had a replacement before) i asked if i could get an early upgrade. she said she had to ask her supervisor and 15 mins later she said i could! i then asked of i could have a free rezound she said no but i decided to spring because, well, I HATE THIS PHONE !! should be here by Tuesday if all goes well AND... i have off this week so a LOT of time to tinker. 50 bucks for one of the best vzw phones NOT made by CRAPorola? sign me up anyday. i guess this is goodbye dx2 family thanks to all the great devs we have (DZK, Ace, Nitro) the modders (motcher, MoonShadow, skwoodwiva) the themers (hedwig ) and the all around good people in this forum (Ash, Litetaker, BreatheALittle) ill pop back in every once in a while just to see if moto shapes up Good Luck in all your endeavors and hope you all are able to move past this phone
PS: Breathe i hope you do get the Rezound, that way we can fight, i mean share our passion for hockey some more lol

Dude I had the EXACT same feeling when the person I bought my nexus from told me they put it on eBay with buy it now at 350(I am doing a split payment on it, so he put the nexus on for 350buy it now and extended bat for 100 that I pay for next week) and after he told me I refreshed the page and it wasn't showing up at first I was like seriously if someone got it in that 15seconds since he notified me it was ready I would have flipped lol
But for the whole two hours I was conversing with the guy my adrenaline was flowing for sure lmfao

Okay i'm extremely fed up. I have had my DX2 for less than a year and I am now just returning my 4th DX2 (will be a total of 5 dx2s) this week for software/hardware related problems. None of this has to do with flashing roms either because the first 3 and possibly the forth i never flashed a single rom. ( mainly because i was to scared)
so here is my question:
in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1586153, litetaker explains the process of receiving a phone upgrade after i believe 2 replacements. IM ON MY 5th!!
I would think that they would have mentioned something about receiving a phone upgrade after my 2nd replacement. But it doesn't surprise me that they wouldn't want to give out a free phone after all the news about Verizon no longer offering the unlimited data plan and bottle necking 3g users.
anyways,
can anyone confirm that it is an option to receive and upgraded phone at no extra cost me after 2 replacement phones?
Idk man took me 5 different malfunctioning Droid X's before Verizon's insurance Asurion decided to offer me an X2. Then again that wasn't straight from VZW either.

I've pretty much flashed everything since i received my last x2. eclipse,cm7,cm9, and others which have escaped my mind, but im just sick of the x2 especially the physical menu, home, back, and search buttons. its annoying at night when my girlfriend is trying to sleep and im on my phone and it just goes CLICK, CLICK, CLICK. i'd just like a new toy to play with and i feel like i have a solid argument ( having 5 replacements) to qualify for a new model.
After my second one I asked for a similar device besides the x2. I played stupid and asked about the incredible2. They said they could do that.

Amen on the clicking sounds. I have the exact same situation, while she has a Droid Razr with no physical buttons!
Though I am curious as to what issues you've encountered? I've been pretty harsh on mine, but without any real hardware issue. With software I can never get the combo of WidgetLocker, Poweramp, & gReader Pro to not make my music stutter. Other than that, I am sitting at "barely content, but want more."

Worst case scenario, which I hope not for your sake of bad runs with the X2, try Button Savior. That will fix the clicking

Hi, I already talked to ya on my other thread you referred to but this is for the benefit of all...
YES! It appears to be a policy on Verizon's side to offer a different model after two replacements of the same if the customer is still unsatisfied. The lady who answered the call and told me the following:
"You haven't reached the threshold where you will be eligible for a different phone. You need to request 2 replacements, so far you only requested one"
However, Verizon will not actively suggest that, unless you get a super nice and sympathetic rep. You must mention it to them and then they will look into it and say, "alright, what would you like!" It worked for me, and several others. And as per the PMs I received from the OP, it seems to be working for him too, who is currently on a customer service call!
So, happy replacing-your-phone-with-a-different-one-and-not-letting-verizon-rip-you-off-ing! (Holy smokes Batman, this concatenated word has 81 characters! )
Cheers!
P.S: I will never "bare" with you. Now matter how nice a person you are, I am NOT getting naked and funky with a dude... If, on the other hand, you are a dudette, then by all means, lets bare together!

It worked for me, and several others. And as per the PMs I received from the OP, it seems to be working for him too, who is currently on a customer service call!
So, happy replacing-your-phone-with-a-different-one-and-not-letting-verizon-rip-you-off-ing! (Holy smokes Batman, this concatenated word has 81 characters! )
Cheers!
P.S: I will never "bare" with you. Now matter how nice a person you are, I am NOT getting naked and funky with a dude... If, on the other hand, you are a dudette, then by all means, lets bare together!

You can always choose the Dinc2 as it doesn't effect your current upgrade date OR your contract...

i bricked my 4.0 flashing a rom so i tried to unbrick it and ended up flashing a intl instead of us and im stuck on recovery screen and cant do nothing.i will go to bestbuy and return it today since i have extended warranty. i will let you guys know how it goes when i get back.
Yeah, let us know. I always wonder in the extended warranty applies to hacked devices.
Good luck!

I succesfully returned mine. When you walk in i dont know if its just in the best buy i went to but theres someone in the entrance that puts a tag on the box of whatever you are going to return/exchange. They told me to go to the cell phones area but i went to customer service instead. In my best buy theres a geek squad side and the best buy side(people in blue) i went to best buy side instead of the geek squad (i thought they might know something about rooting). i just told the guy that i wanted to return it he just asked why are you returning this product. So i just told him that i left it charging overnight and it goes to this screen when i turn it on. He just said ok and took it you can either get another from their shelfs or get a gift card. I got a gift card since the 4.0 and 5.0 are on sale online 4.0 is $150 and 5.0 is about $200. IM not sure what to do with the gift card yet im thinking about saving a bit more to get an htc evo v 4g from virgin mobile or just buy the 4.0 again but im not sure. Just try not to mention rooting or what the screen is on.
