Best Buys Trade-IN Program for 8 year old smartphone for NOTE 4!! - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4

So Best buy has had the Trade-In program for the past month for the Pre-Order of the NOTE4, Today I was able to actually Trade-in a "NO VALUE" smartPhone at Best Buy for the $200 trade-in value, as long as the smartphone was in the system. So luckily the 8 YEAR OLD HTC 8125 that has no value in the system was listed and was able to be used as a trade-in. They also stated that the Trade-in program for the $200 giftcard will continue till the end of the month and will also be available for the S5 aside from current stock Note 4's

Yeah I got mine for 200. Bought a 30 buck phone of eBay.

I traded a palm pre in.

if your trade-in does have value, any value (mine was $4), you can get another $50 plus whatever value as a My Rewards bonus, on top of the $200...I just did it at best buy today. So i got $200 + $54 + $50 (for reserving an upgrade back in Feburary) today when I picked up my note4

my rewards bonus for doing a trade-in? or is that because of ur rewards?

i traded in 2 samsung replenish phones, worth nothing...for $200 each.
also used 2 BB mover's coupons for 10% off the 299.
walked out the door with 2 note 4's for $170 ($70 each plus tax) on a 2 yr contract.

Do I have to get the note 4 in bestbuy though? Since I already preordered and got my Note 4

Hah, me too! I went there with a couple phones as backups, but they ended up taking an old iPhone 3gs with a paltry 8gb of storage Although it did have a 5$ trade-in value. So i was able to net the 200$ + the 50$ bonus, with the pre-order gift card I ended up just having to pay tax.

I traded in a 6 1/2 year old blackberry pearl worth zero and got the full $200 trade-in as well.:good:

I traded in an S4. But I'm feeling like I could've sold that on Swappa and traded in my girlfriends old iPhone 4s

My question is this - since this promo is supposed to only be god on pre-orders, and they didn't have my pre-order; what happens if they don't get my phone before the time the promo expires? The entire reason I pre-ordered at BB was for the $200 instant trade in. I guess I'll call the store to ask.

They have extended the promo till this month. I pre ordered another one and they said the order date is what they will consider and doesnt matter when the actual phone gets delivered.

I had preordered one to get the $200 credit but they didn't receive enough units yesterday.
So I canceled mine and got one from the AT&T store instead, taking advantage of the $100 credit for an old iPhone 4.
Also, by getting the phone using the Next program, I didn't have to pay much for the purchase up front at all.
In fact, I was up $50 in the overall transaction. I figure that I will most likely upgrade my phone next year again anyway, so the Next program makes sense for me as well. Just happy to have a Note 4 in my hand RIGHT NOW!

What crappy phone do you guys recommend getting to trade it in? I was thinking of just getting something super cheap from Walmart to use. I have an old 4S lying around but I'd rather give it to my brother to use than to trade it in.

I bought a net 10 ZTE midnight phone for 20 bucks and virgin Kyocera mobile for 29 bucks. Already traded the ZTE phone to get note 4 for my wife. Waiting for my note 4 and am gng to trade in Kyocera phone.

I pre-ordered and traded in a barely working Galaxy S2 that actually shut off during the trade-in. On top of the $200 I also got the extra $50 for being a My best buy member, and to make the phone free I had argued with ATT retention department and had a $50 statement credit added to my bill. All together I paid tax $24 for the Note 4 and couldn't be happier!
Since I am a cheap skate i also picked up a screen protector from extreme guardz for $1, and a Verus CrystalMixx case for $7 and this phone is complete.

My worry is that the best buy $200 trade in expires (according to the terms and conditions on their website) on Nov 1st. The way it is sounding from BB - i may be lucky to have my phone by them. If they don't have my phone until after that - I will be getting my $200 /phone - one way or another. If I have to call corp. and complain to them until Its free, I will.
If you couldn't tell - I'm pretty upset w/ Best buy selling pre-orders, telling me I could get the phone on release date, and then not having enough phones to cover the even the pre-orders they had. No best buy within like 500 miles of me has any in stock.

Is this only for pre-orders? Can I still do it if I order right now?

So how exactly does this trade-in program works?
I have HTC 8525 and HTC Fuze

Shattered Screen - warranty?

I dropped my phone from about 2 feet up (fell out of pocket while getting out of the car). My screen shattered. I was shocked as I'd dropped it before without any problems. Also, I thought the screen protector that shipped with this was supposed to make it nearly shatterproof (or so I was told upon being sold).

My question is whether this will be covered under warranty or not. I bought this at a rogers retail location in Canada and use it on the Rogers network in Canada as well.
Thanks.
I THINK THIS is not covered under warranty
u will have to pay for repair

+1, why would they pay for your clumsiness , and jesus, if I'd dropped it once already and got away with I certainly wouldn't be letting that happen again.
Warranty????You are not serious..
I drove my merc of a bridge into a lake and the damage wasn't for the merc dealer strangely enough, but hey, if you get warranty let me know, so I can sue my merc dealer
from my Arc or Optimus 2x
Thanks for the info all. I was only asking because when sold I was told that such small drops wouldn't result in this type of damage. If I'd known, I would have waited for something with gorilla glass. Taking from the car analogy, the dealer basically said I could drive the car into walls at slow speeds, just don't drive it off a bridge. I'll do everything I can to get a new one. I don't car if the dealer is out of pocket.
Any idea how much these things usually cost to get fixed?
Here in Holland you can get your screen fixed for around 100 euro, which is about 150$ US. But officially through the dealer they ask twice that amount, I scattered the screen of my x10 a few weeks before I get my arc by walking into a desk a bit painfully...
For the x10 the screens were for sale on ebay, I don't know if they are for the arc, also there are several people who wrote how to change the screen yourself.
The car example was just a cynical joke, mate, blame my black sense of humor for that....;-)

If you had paid for your initial subscription/sign up fee with a premium Visa (or any other premium credit card), you maybe able to get the credit company to cover your accident. I assume its not cheap and fast getting it repaired. Good luck!

That's a matter to take up with the retailer you purchased from - there is no such thing as a shatter-proof screen and you should never be sold a phone on that basis.

Gorilla Glass is just scratch-resistant, it's not shatter-proof either.
There'd be just as high a chance that the same drop would've cracked the screen on a Galaxy S or some other handset with Gorilla Glass as it did your Arc's screen.
Just say that the back cover is too slippery. May work

ha ha ha. I'll give it a shot. I'm already in a big argument with my provider (Rogers) over their quality of service which I'm probably going to leave them anyways. I get a whopping 0.05 Mbps where i live with 4 bars on 3g. tower issues near by they acknowledge but never fix (used to always force me back to 2g until I found test mode to set 3g only).
I really like this phone though and am willing to pay to get it fixed, which is where my stupid provider is going to screw me around. $25 to get it sent out to see how much its going to cost ... pay activation fee ($35?) to get my old phone activated while its gone, pay the cost of fixing the screen (shouldn't be more than, $200 they said but likely around $150), then pay an activation fee to get the phone back on again. Maybe the person telling me this didn't have a clue, but if that's the case, they've lost all business from me.
Anybody know of any third party repair places in Canada?
Thanks
Activation fee?
Surely you just put your SIM in the other handset and that's it?
As for third-parties, didn't I see someone say that Sony sells the handsets directly in Canada?
Is that's the case, they'll have some sort of repair service as well.
Why don't you visit one of the Sony Style stores.. I know they sell the Arc too
i used to work for a (private owned) rogers dealer and we send out all sony ericsson phones to Flextronics (details here). they are the only SE repair center in Canada. give them a call first to see if you are able to send your phone in directly (out-of-warranty repair) or if you have to go through a rogers dealer and have them send it in.
the repair estimate is usually around $35 and if you go through the dealer, the shipping is included. estimates can take up to 4 weeks. but definitely give them a call first and they'll fill you in on the details.
And please don't forget to get insurance next time. As they say here in the Philippines..
Once is enough. Twice is too much. Three's Stooges!
Had mine for accidental damage and cost me around US$20+.
I know Rogers offers Handsets Protection Guarantee. My device can get fixed when I break it or something for the first time. That's what they told me while I bought my Arc. Not sure how that works though. Maybe that will help you lower the costs.
P.S. I can always switch between my unlocked phones by just plugging in my SIM card without an activation fee.

That seems to be same cut as the one in AliExpress, but cheaper.. Without retail packaging though.
BUT.. In checkout there's no option for PayPal. That's pretty suspicious to me, because they mention PayPal as one of the payment methods.
How is the quality on this? Just ordered the 50 pcs lot for $17.
I assume you'll be trying to sell them on, you'll do well to shift that lot but good luck anyway.

Quality is great. Its super clear no issues with the screen protector yet. I've had it on for a week and no scratches yet. It might get some lift with certain cases but if you maneuver it right it you can get rid of the lift.

Had no intent sell when I bought but seeing how good it works I don't think I'll be needing all of it. I was assuming it was going to be crappy and thought I would have to replace it a lot. Still on #1 and its fine. If anybodies interested in buying any I don't mind selling some.

These are always "cheap" but just a heads up for the community. They are very grippy and it's difficult to use gesture typing. Most users end up throwing these away from what I've seen (unless you just haven't tried anything better). Sorry if this sounds harsh. They are a great temporary solution but not exactly "cheap" as even some cheap eBay ones are better from my experience.
I can confirm the experience from above.Bought 3 of those on offer for my note 2 and end it up to the garbage,they never lose the rubbery feel.

Agree. They do a great job temporarily though. While you wait for a better screen protector to arrive I've tried them on a Nexus 4, Nexus 10, and a Samsung S3 but they just never ever lose their awkward plasticy feel. They're great for reapplying though. I've often taken them off and put them back on...eventually though...they have all ended up in the bin. Just tempting to keep trying them cos of their marketing of 70-90% off all the time. Reality is, all they're worth is a $1 or 2 anyway.
Perhaps good for just the backs of phones though as it would offer good grip I imagine.
Bought these during my S3 days. Ended up not using anyone of it due to the stickiness of the surface. My advice is don't waste money on this.
No matter how cheap it is
Thanks man bought 5 of them today.

Are the screen protectors from Spigen better?
Those are the ones I usually buy and they are perfect.
Should I buy these ones because of the offer or buy the ones from Spigen?

Tylt Wireless Charger for LG G3

After messing with some cheap wireless chargers on Ebay and getting the slow charging I said screw that and bought two Tylt wireless chargers for $35 each at a T-Mobile store. Not all stores have them and it took the manager some time to even find the SKU to check inventory at stores. The SKU is SUPM39575. Happy with the Tylt since it's made well and you just place it on and it charges fast enough. Some chargers are picky with the G3 but the Tylt doesn't require any sweet spot to charge. Amazon and Micro center carry the Tylt but it probably cost more.
Tylt probably works with most cases. It does with my Nillkin. I haven't tried with my Insignia case yet.
You need a sticker for wireless charging. I got mine from this thread (thanks iazybandit). Not sure if he has anymore.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/accessories/feeler-buy-qi-nfc-sticker-t2827738
Also you can get them from this place in China. Not sure if Ebay has any yet.
Tylt has a light at the bottom and turns green when charging. If it turns red pull it off and put back on.

Picked up one today. Called 3 different T-Mobile stores. The one I happened upon that I didn't call had them. Only bought one since I already have a Nokia one.
I used the Tylt Vue with my Nexus 5 and absolutely loved it. It's just been sitting on my nightstand the past month until I could figure out how to get wireless charging to work with my G3.
I finally ordered THIS BACKPLATE that finally arrived and after installing it wireless charging is working great!
Tmobile have it for $35? I called two stores and they say it's $70.

Price shows up at checkout.
Thanks for this tip. I had to call around about 5 locations but found one with two in stock. They also had a buy two get one free on accessories so I ended up with a external battery pack for free.
Damn. I wonder why the manager didn't tell me about the buy two accessories get one free. I don't really need another accessory though. Lol
I got them at 35.00 in Chicago 2 days ago.
Using the Tylt Vu with my D851, works flawlessly and charges at full speed. Very happy.

I just bought from a place near Chicago and they actually have discount stickers on them, with $34.99 on the front (the original price sticker on the back).
What sort of speed are you getting with charging? It seems to me that it charges a fair bit slower than I was getting with my USB charger.
That said, I have never used the LG charger. I've been using the 2A charger from my Note 2 and the 1.8 blackberry charger that was spoken of highly by a member here.

You should see about 20-25% an hour. This is what I get with mine.
I saw it for $70 I had no idea they were marked down looks like I'll pick one up tomorrow then!
I just ordered a gold battery cover whoop whoop.

Can't find them for $35 here in NYC at all. Nor on T-Mobile's website.
It charges as fast as the wired charger for me.

I think that's about what I'm getting.. but I'm sure I was getting much quicker speeds with the wired charger. I'm going to do some tests over the next few days to see for sure.

Wow, you just missed it. These were on sale for 50% off direct from Tylt. They were selling them for $35. Site now show all sold out, sorry. Alternatively you can get one of these:

Its a Vu clone but works just as well. I also own this version and really they work the same. Highly recommend it as well.
Did you guys get the sticker or a complete new back cover? Wondering which would be the better route (price aside).

I bought a back replacement from Korea total cost was $26 from eBay. Best investment so far. At the time all sellers for the stickers did not have any in stock would have loved to save some money but I'm content and know this is LG made. Get yourself a quality qi charger too. I was lucky and walked into a T-Mobile store in Edison NJ while I was working and they had 2 Tylt Vue chargers on sale for $35. Works flawlessly. At another T-Mobile store in Astoria NY they had on display the new Samsung qi charger for their S6 and it was only able to slow charge my G3. Same thing at a bestbuy too only slow charging on the S6 qi charger.
I ended up getting a complete back cover. Also bought a red Tylt off Amazon's Warehouse Deals. Pretty excited! Just got my phone in today, rooted, put in krowley3's "cleanrom". Loving the phone so far.

I did pre-book on the 17th, but no sign of shipment yet. My order is still processing.
Spoke with somebody I know in Samsung India, most orders likely to be shipped on 22nd late night or 23rd.
Anybody aware of any cases available in India which have a built in screen protector and a hinge cover? Hinge protection is necessary, since my Fold 2 had issues with dust and was partially unfolding.

status is still at confirmed stage, not even packed do you have any new updates on your order?
I booked on 16th. No update on shipping of watch or the wireless charger. Spoke to customer care and they say there is delay due to high volumes of orders.
BTW, while using the coupon code using the prebooking vip pass. I got a discount of 5K. But what about the 1999 we paid? Will they refund? I believe it was not adjusted in the final price I got.

My order is also on the confirmed stage. Would try to find out again from my Samsung source, if no shipment by tomorrow.
Any cases you ordered. I ordered the Samsung one with s pen. Looking for a case to cover the hinge. The Spigen on Amazon is too bulky.

Just got the delivery of spigen air. Its so thin and I don't think it will protect from hard drops or on stones.
Last year I have the bully one from spigen for my fold 3. It's so bully that my mobile weighed 0.5kg. so Im avoiding it at all costs and as I always stay at home anyway. For now any case that provides hinge protection will definitely add Wight and bill to the alredy bulk phone
PS I have FREE ADLD for fold 4 from samsung. If anything happens I will just claim it

Sammy has a very poor buyback or upgrade scheme in India. The option to trade my S21U is not there in official website.
In USA they are offering 900 usd off for S21U on purchase of z fold 4

I had used the below one for the Z Fold3. Very good all-round protection s-pen case and quite cheap compared to Spigen. Will wait for this one to be launched in India for Z fold4. Have ordered the Samsung spen case at the moment.
