Does T-Mobile still offer the G2 as a replacement for a G2 or do they now have a "like model" phone?
They should still have a bunch of refurbished ones still laying around.

I'd shoot myself (and them) if they tried that
I heard they're back on Tmobile.com so they should still have them in stock to replace
Lol I agree. I need to do a warranty replacement myself for one of them since my headphone jack is no longer working.

If it is a warranty replacement then I personally have never had to pay anything including shipping (standard) if it is a claim for assurian then I believe the cost is 130.00.

Yes they certainly do. But if it's still has factory warranty, (which I highly doubt by now) then you can just go through HTC for replacement. I'm not sure but you can try.
Ohh u guys are all talking about replacement by htc?? I thought this was that ~$5 a month insurance plan that tmobile offers if u break ur phone or if it's stolen. Also engadget had an article saying that tmobile was once again selling the g2 so I'm sure they have a bunch of new inventory that they would give as replacements
If you go through tmobile it is a $5 replacement. What I can't figure out, a month ago I was having battery problems, and they gave me the option for a replacement g2, or a mytouch 4g slide.
I took the slide, and I love the phone itself, its way faster and sleeker than the g2, but not being able to s-off and lack of development has me coming back to the g2. Also I'm not a sense fan at all, and due to the lack of devs, they don't have a stable cm7 aosp..
Today, no kidding, my wifes phone took and dump and won't charge either. We called tmobile up, and they weren't offering another phone as a replacement. Just a g2. So she is getting her replacement g2 Tuesday, and I'm going to switch phones with her miss my g2 and can't wait to root the new one and load up some roms and be able to change radios again!!
If you decide to use the $5/mth insurance way, they also charge you an additional 130 on top of having to pay the 5 bux a mth which I think is a rip off.

Yup keyword though is with contract so that's not full price...
I never pay full price I think that's useless especially since I keep a phone for a while it'll be two yrs this fall and I might just get the one s or g4x if the rumor is true but only if the g3 doesn't come. By fall the one series will probably be less than 200 because there's always a sale during the winter holidays

I seriously hope the rumor that the One X will come to tmo with the Tegra 3 chipset is true. Supposedly continuing the G series as the 'G3X' I think. Still though..... *drool*

I preordered from ATT. Got it on November 9th and it has been my daily driver since. The first thing I did was put a screen protector on it and put it in a case (OEM Samsung) I received my Seidio Surface combo last Saturday and am all set!
I loved my OG Galaxy Note, but I love the GN2 more! It is so much smoother and has so many more capabilities. My wife has a SGSIII so the phones work well together sharing media etc. I take notes at work, so this is THE device for me. The battery life seems to be outstanding so far. Have not seen it below 30% or so in a regular 12 hour day.
Picked an ATT version up on ebay for $599 total. Love it so far.

What color are you guys getting? $599 is the best price I've seen so far. I was hoping for a BF/CM discount but no such luck yet.
Got mine from Best Buy price matched as well, thought about switching to the Nexus 4, then noticed the screen is tiny. Once you have a 5.5" screen nothing else seems right.

I have a N4 on order but the longer I wait the less interested I am in it. If I was on T-Mobile? Sure. Done deal. But as long as el Diablo doesn't fire me for my unlimited data plan the lack of LTE is a deal breaker. It's not so much the LTE as it's the throttling. On the LTE plan it goes to HSPA, EDGE on the Nexus.
I got mine for $550 off Craigslist.

I bought mine no commitment and when my wife touched it I had to order another no commitment. $649.99 each but absolutely no regrets. This phablet is worth every penny. I feel its a great upgrade from the Note.

Where is this magical offer? How are you guys getting this?
Sold iphone 5 on craigslist for 850. Bought international Note 2 on craigslist for 600. Sold international Note 2 on craigslist for 600. Bought AT&T Note 2 for 650 + tax. Had it for two weeks and love it more than any phone I've tried. I usually flip a phone every 2 months. I can see myself keeping this one a year. Never tried the original note. Now that ive tried the Note 2 I dont think I can go back to a regular phone

Got mine off of Ebay brand new with the fancy flip cover (grey) for $660.00 & free shipping (before AT&T had them in the store, went to the Samsung site and got a quote for upgrading (trade in my Galaxy Note) and got a promise (it is in process) of $375.00 for sending in my old Note (which is $75.00 MORE than I paid AT&T for it).
So I end up getting a new Note 2 for $285.00 Off contract, now just waiting for my rebate card from Samsung.

Forgot about Samung trade in program. I have my original Note sitting at this point collecting dust. Do they just mail you a check?
I paid $550 + tax off contract at at&t. I just asked nicely if they might be able to knock something off for me.
So far I like it better than my so although my touchscreen is less responsive on this.

Hey all!
I've been lurking the forums for a long time. Used some great guides a few years ago to root and mod my LG Optimus S... .which I still use today. It has served me well, but it's time for an upgrade!
I have been watching the LG Optimus G for a month or two... Sprint did their buy one get one free for $200 deal that ended March 1st... now they have $49.99 for a new contract and $99.99 for an upgrade. This matches what Amazon has been running for months. I don't have 4G in my area, and don't expect it anytime soon, so I am waiting to buy when the price drops end. I know the Optimus G Pro is going to be launch in the next few months. SO, should I expect the price to drop again when the Optimus G Pro comes out? or is $99 probably the best deal to expect for some time?
I haven't watch prices for more than a month or two, so if anyone who has seen the market ups and downs could chime in it would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
I got it for $99 from Best Buy a couple months ago and I think it's a steal at that price. The only comparable phones easily go for twice that. I doubt it'll get much better in the near future.
I'm not an expert. Just my two cents.

If it were me in your position .... I would probably wait till the Pro version launches and compare the Optimus G (which I have and love btw) against the G pro and see what kind of upgrade pricing you can get on both at that time. Anyway ... the Optimus G is a GREAT device with a lot of power and at $99 ... it's a steal!
Like the guy above me this is just my opinion on the issue. That Pro version sure looks nice but I am married to the Optimus G for 23 more months :good:

You can find it used in Craigslist for 200 in KC. If you want some advice, never get stuck in a contract. Buy used stuff cheap and sell your old stuff on eBay.

True, ebay gives top rated sellers pretty hefty discounts. But even if I didn't have it I wouldve still turned a profit ~15 or so.
I've seen online ads saying you can get the LGOG for $49 but only as a new contract. Not an upgrade or added line. Either ATT or Sprint.

Care to elaborate? I'd love to find that kind of a deal on my contact renewal.
I got my LGOG for free. We upgraded my wife's phone through Best Buy and got the fifty dollar gift certificate. I waited to upgrade mine and they had a weekend deal for the LGOG for 49.99. Gave then gift card and had to swipe my card because it was a purchase but that was it. Even better i live in NH with no sales tax. Literally cost me nothing.
if you wanna grab a white gs3, i'll trade you my optimus g.

My fiancee and I got ours a few weeks ago on a buy one get one paying $200 for the one.
I upgraded at Best Buy back in January when they were running the "buy the phone for 99 and get a free LG stereo bluetooth" special. My girl wanted a bluetooth anyway, and I figured, why buy a bluetooth for her for 70 bucks when I can pay 30 more and get a new phone as well.

Go to best buy and have them match Fry's at 99.99 then tell them you signed up for the freedom program in January and they will give you $50 off. They will tell you "its not coming up in our system", just assure them that you did sign up for it. The system is kinda broken so they'll take your word for it. I got 3 of them yesterday for everyone on my family plan. Fantastic deal.

And has literally almost no mark up at all on tvs or computers. In fact they often sell those items below cost. They make that money back in upselling those horribly priced accessories.
Regardless, I have no stock in them, I just find it frustrating when people abuse the system and straight up lie. That could cost someone their job, I've seen it happen.

Frys is now $149 w/ 2-year contract. I know because I went there yesterday and found they upped the price (which stopped me from upgrading).
I got my G Pro for $99 at the AT&T store, too my dad's old impulse, and they gave me a $100 credit. On their system, the Impulse 4G was worth $6!! Can you believe that!

I understand about BB price matching Fry's, but then how do you go about trading in your old phone to AT&T. Doesn't AT&T give you the money for your old phone ONLY if you purchase a new one from them? Or are you saying that BB will buy your old AT&T phone just like the corporate store will?
Edit: I just went to Fry's website and I saw Verizon, T-Mo, and Sprint, but no AT&T. So, if no AT&T, then how does one get a OGPro from them?
