Just got my V30, thinking about using my JUMP 1 again if they offer the V30+ in black. Luckily I can do this but I feel kind of stiffed.
Anyone else?

Wait, why do you think that there might be a possibility that TMO will offer the V30+? Any source? I'd be all over it.
I am. I really want to wait for unlocked but it won't be released in time and I have a the Pixel 2 as a side piece; plus the Tmobile service in Japan is not too bad.

I predicted this, by the way. Back when "news" falsely said ONLY Sprint would have the V30+.
I said it wasn't exclusive at all, and that other carriers would add V30+ and more colors for holiday sales.

It was never exclusive. U.S.Cellular sold it before Sprint.

Sprint claimed exclusive "at launch" (October) "among major U.S.carriers" ( huge loophole). U.S.Cellular is distant fifth in size, but they were selling it full week before Sprint.
And I predicted it before it happened.

Isnt only different 64gb vs 128gb internal memory? Why jump or upgrade from a regular v30?

Because 128GB internal storage is much better than 64GB, even with microSD card.
When you go to sell the phone in a couple of years, you'll have more resale value.
Same with like the Droid Turbo three years ago... Came in 32GB and 64GB. Now in 2017, 32GB looks PUNY. But back then, a ton of people got the 32GB version because it was "cheaper".

IMO, ICS roms aren't really even relevent when it comes to the phone because its just such a huge leap forward from the 3D. The experiance on the 3d is not gonna be comparable.

LOL, if you think what you just typed is it in a nutshell, then yes you probably should not be upgrading. Insanely better screen, the processor power is not even on the same level. Automatically better battery because of the power management in the chip. Faster GPU, better camera along with a better camera app. Better version of Sense, lighter, faster, less bloat. And if all that isn't enuff it has a freaking kickstand.

Well seeing that its AT&T who caused that extra step being put in there, not sure how that relates to sprint. The rest of the One X's are all unlocked. Just so happens the model on AT&T ends up locked??? Seems like a carrier decision, and not the first time AT&T has done this.

You can upgrade through them. All of that takes place once the phone is available and you pay your money. They verify your upgrade and then you do everything else normally as you would through sprint.

OHH SCNAP!! you guys do great work so the Evo LTE looks like it will be in good hands.
This was my first time calling wirefly. I was on hold with wirefly for 1 hour and spent half hour getting the details of the upgrade price and accessories. Gave them my card number to process and I am available for an upgrade, but when they asked me for my social security number and the them being in the Philippines for them to verify my account with sprint, I have more to loose than saving the $50. I'm going to pre order from sprint and pay the taxes and the $199. Now I'm even thinking of canceling my credit card I gave them.
Has anyone been trough this with them?

It does exist. Basically the same phone with a red backsimilar to the j butterfly. Comes with a fatboy charging pillow. You get both for 99 bucks.
That's actually a pretty solid deal. I wonder if it will be up on the VZW website before Xmas. I'm debating on Note 2 or DNA (obviously), and the DNA is getting pretty stellar reviews from all over, but that 6-7 hours of ONSCREEN time on the Note 2 makes me want it ever so much. I hate the fact I can't use my phone for a long period of time.
If it goes live on the website, I'll post a screen cap.

What good does this do you? You're paying an extra $40/month for the upgrade? In two years you'll have paid ~$960 for the second line that you maintain just to get an upgrade every year. If you're putting a dumb phone on the line so you don't have to pay data you're a little better than buying a phone outright, but not much.

Actually, even if LG unlocked it to be just like the N4 AT&T would never allow that update, they absolutely hate their users having root or anything xda generally strives for.
My guess is that, among other things, it is so easy to tether/hotspot once rooted without paying for such a plan.

At Sprint, they tell us to push iPhone. If a customer wants an Android, we are supposed to push them to iPhone. I, of course, do not follow this at all and am straight up with the customers.

As long as you are in the return window, once you return it they reset your "upgrade" with ATT so you will be back to same status you were before the purchase

Hi all,
Just finished chatting with newegg and they themselves have no idea when it is shipping. Please update this thread if anyone has any latest shipping news.
Thanks,
Anthony
This means they still dont have it in stock for now. Why do they set the date at 10/14?

I pre-order just 2 days ago from newegg and I am guessing I won't see it ship any soon. But according to websites that broke the news about newegg pre-order, it is supposed to be shipped today.

I am on the lookout for a C6806 as well since i'm an AT&T customer. I have an HSPA+ phone now (Galaxy Mega 6.3) but it seems like the signal is not all that good. I really don't care about the LTE speeds too much i'm more worried about signal strength. Not sure if the LTE give me better signal in the area's i'm at. I was holding out for the 6806 version, but maybe it'll get pushed back even further, not sure if I should just get the C6802

I placed my order and it said "Estimated ship date 10/16/13", so we'll see if that's true or not. I will let you guys know.
Z Ultra on Sony's Site
I see it on Sony's site too. Both the c6806 and the c6802. Interestingly they have two phones labeled as c6802bk on the list page, but when you click on one of them, the detail page shows c6806bk. It's the one that's also titled "LTE".
Here's a link to the detail page:

Also, $679 instead of $729 on newegg.
I cancelled my newegg pre-order and ordered it from Sony website. Paid the express shipping and should get it in the next few days.
They have them in stock sitting in the wherehouse. Order away.

I got mine today, bought at the local sony store here in orlando. I got the white one and was so happy but it doesn't come with a headphone.

Oh, that's unfortunate. I had heard of various international models coming with a dock or bluetooth unit bundled with it. I was hoping we'd get that over here, but if they're skipping the headphones, I guess there's no chance of that. Oh well, I'll still be getting mine regardless, I can get the dock separately and I don't even need the bluetooth thing. And it's much cheaper than I was expecting to have to pay, so that's nice.
I really really want this phone, but on Verizon my family and I have the grandfathered-in unlimited data plan. However this means getting phones off-contract and bringing them to Verizon, because if we upgrade through Verizon we'll be moved to the tier system, and we would very much not want to do that (as a family we use around 12GB a month, which is above the highest tier of 10GB)
So, I found it on craigslist for $425. Worth it? Any good upcoming deals on sites to get the phone cheaper than that off-contract?
EDIT: It is black 32GB model btw

Yes. You can't get a better phone for that price. It's cheap.
Any answer you get would be just opinion and since you're in g2 forum most will probably say yes. What's important to you in a phone? I personally think the g2 is worth every penny but if you want a phone that is on the latest software and youre not interested in the LG extras get the nexus 5. Ultimately it comes down to your personal preference

Absolutely worth it. I bought mine from Verizon for $449 during their special and love it.
Just could not part with my unlimited data.
It replaced my Galaxy Nexus which I've owned since release day.

Nexus 5 is unfortunately not on Verizon. And in my area, the other Big 3 are shoddy services
Check ebay you can find cheaper.

I've got both and would suggest you get the G2 anyways. That price is great I'd say go for it.

Not sure if you're aware, but there's a workaround to keep your unlimited data while upgrading if you have any dumbphones on your plan.

Battery, the Screen, IR blaster, speaker, I really like the UI I could go on and on. With that being said I like the n5 also I just think the G2 is a much better overall phone.

I paid $430 on ebay for new in box AT&T 32gb black last week. Seems to be the going rate. I'm really enjoying it.
I just got a g2 on ebay brand new sealed box white 32gb for 400
I got mine for $410 + $10 Swappa fee on Swappa the other week, your price is very good too
