Did anyone else get the email about postponing the consumer launch of the Q and giving pre-ordered devices away for free?

I just read this. I thought I was saving money when I bought mine off eBay.
Oh well. I still like it the way it is. I hope they actually do "make it even better" and not just abandon it.

So much negative feedback even from android users they are actually gonna work on it! I hope the improvements are made quick since it should be easy for them. For once an early adopter came out on top.
Will the ppl who bought on eBay get these new features? Hope they don't change the hardware at all, already got one on eBay.

If I could pre-order now and score the free device, I'd be racing to the Play Store site.
Wishful thinking, I know. Unless someone out there is ballsy enough to try and see what happens lol.
Congrats to the early adopters who got hooked up. Good to see at least one Nexus pre-order get taken care of properly.

I thought I was being clever for getting one off Ebay for less and cancelling my pre-order, didn't turn out that way at all.
I am pretty excited to hear that they are going to continue to enhance features, the possibilities are almost endless! GoogleTV would be a nice start though.

I'm sure that even if Google doesn't officially give us a way to add the features that some of the trusty devs on this site and others will make it happen. Gotta love the Android Community!
I just got a shipped and charge notice
I just received email email telling me that my nexus q shipped and that I am being charged $343.13
Nothing on my card yet, however I thought they were not going to charge anymore..

I had posted this in the Carbon thread but figured I'd make it easier to find. It's not very in depth and it really turned into a cRookeD ROM review (that's my totally awesome nickname for my tweaked ROMs based off other people's incredibly amazing hard work). It's pretty unorganized so if there is anything I didn't point out or cover, let me know. I had fun doing this and wouldn't mind doing it again. My only worry is that I've broken some rule by doing this so if I did, let me know and I'll remove the link faster than you can say h...
Much obliged to Carbon and oblikas for giving us this greatastic ROM.

Had to chop off the end. I displayed some personal info. So yea, sloppy but fun. Going to do another one. Trying to decide if I'll go more in depth on Carbon or do a different ROM altogether.

Uploading another video. Not a review but I talk about my purchase of the Nexus 5. Yea, I'm on VZW but I gotta see what it's about. I ordered pretty early so with reports of people having theirs being shipped already, I will be close behind. As soon as I get it, I'll post a comparison. I've no doubt it'll make us feel OK with the fact we VZW users haven't missed out much.... Better camera, bigger screen, bigger battery and the best coverage available. I'll just provide proof.

Cool man thanks for the time and energy to do the video, look forward to the talk and side by side of the nexus 5

I'll have the Nexus 5 Monday so I'll do a side by side that night. Video will be up on Tuesday. I'm hearing the Nexus screen isn't as bright or as well calibrated. REALLY looking forward to that comparison.

Got my 5 and first impressions (4.4 aside), the G2 feels better. The 5 has a big bottom chin that gets in the way. The screen seems a bit dull too.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Kinda hard to see here but the N5 screen is definitely washed out compared to the G2.

Not my full on comparison but a quick look at the huge difference in screen color.

Here's a fairly light comparison between the G2 and the Nexus 5. Maybe a bit opinionated. But here it is for anyone who can find it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqt9CYgYFCg&feature=youtube_gdata_player

So disappointed on the nexus 5 and the issues it has. Glad I got my G2 and waited for some reviews first. I'm sure the Dev. Community can tweak the display on the N5 to make the whites whiter and fix the under saturation.
I'm big on the Nexus devices but just don't see a reason to buy the N5 right now.
Thanks again for the video review

No problem, I enjoy it.
The color... Yea. I'm getting a replacement for the defect and while neither the Google rep I spoke with or I believe this to be the case, maybe the screen colors are effected by that defect. Or maybe that's just representative of a bigger problem. I suppose I'll find out.

I have been looking for this bundle ever since I got my n3 but couldn't find it until today. I try to screech for it on amazon but it never showed up, I finally got it to show after going through other battery bundles... But to make it easier for you guys I'll post the link to the amazon page ENJOY!!!!!
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FS8JPXW/ref=ox_ya_os_product
UPDATE: Had mine for almost a week now and Im happy to report that work great!!! They last a little longer then the stock oem battery. The build quality is very good I highly recommend for only 30 bucks for two and a charger you can't go wrong.
thanks OP, will be keeping one battery to myself and one for my gf :good:

Thanks ,,,,,, that was useful one.... appreciated :good:

This from someone who's majority of post are related to RavPower.
I just placed my order. Since amazon increased the free shipping to $35, I went ahead and picked up this: http://www.amazon.com/MAXAH®-Meters-Adapter-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B00DZJSAVY/ref=cm_cr_pr_sims_t in order to boost the price for free shipping.

So... is the nfc working with the anker battery?

I jumped the wagon from a long chain of Samsungs, and I have not looked back even for a second.
The only thing that was missing, was Multiwindow, and now that's ported from the G Flex, and working great!
Camera has been treated with mods by great devs, and also works awesome.
I'm gonna get mine in few days. Can't wait

I just got my ballistic SG Maxx and I love it. Rather than going on eBay and selling it I figured I'd see if anyone here had use for it. No charge of course if maybe someone could reimburse me for shipping when they receive it. It's in great condition.
EDIT: Please don't say you want it and then just sell it on eBay. I want someone who actually wants one that maybe couldn't afford it to have it.
EDIT 2: WINNER Congrats to DOG666 for being our winner! I'm sorry to all who didn't win, I kind of picked randomly and he was the first to PM me. If I don't hear back from him soon with his address I will pick a second winner! And keep your eyes peeled for some similar giveaways I plan on doing in the next two months. Round of applause to the GN3A forum for being such good sports. Keep up the good work guys!

I was just about to jump in and say I'm interested but... aw well. Whomever gets it enjoy.
I've been trying to get one for so long but I'm a cheapskate! I would have given away my OEM wireless cover, Spigen Slim Armor, Bear Motion bumper, and more. I've already given away an unused Caseology case and ordered a battery door with microSD/SD adapter I didn't need (to experiment on for others here who asked me to) , so I'm already paying it forward.

I doubt it will get to me but I would really love this case. I currently just have the cheap Spigen case and it doesn't offer much protection. I have looked at this case for awhile but just never had the extra cash to get it.

Thank you! I never knew about XDA until I got my Note 3 and the forums have helped me from day 1 of my purchase. Seeing as how they are expensive cases and I recently started doing well financially (well... better than I was at least haha) I thought I would make someone smile!
