General Got my socks! - Google Pixel 6 Pro

I got an invite not long a go to join the "Pixel Superfan" group. They are sending socks to everyone in the group. It's just socks, but still pretty cool.

Cool. I'm not so certain they're sending socks to everyone, but we'll see. I had read that they're sending them only to select Superfans.

That's wild , wash them ASAP

I wish I could be a superfan here in the UK. By some mistake I got the invitation a while ago but then, obviously, I did not qualified because of my British address.

Is that a one size fits all? Of all places and things they could have thought of for brand promotion

I have some realllllly old Google socks when I attended a job fair. They have the old ugly Google logo on them lol

I could use some Apple-branded charcoal filters for my underwear.

I received my socks a few weeks ago, they're nice. Won a 5a5g phone in one of their contests right before that phone dropped, I appreciate the little things.

I got my socks couple weeks ago as well. Very nice pair

Bummer. I got an invite a few months ago but refuse to join Facebook just to be a pixel super fan.

Share your Verizon Store "Waiting in Line" stories.

This is the first time I've ever stood in line for anything. Had it not been for the state of my Droid, I would have ordered online. But it was kind of exciting in a geeky sort of way.
There were about 15 people at the store at 8:30 waiting to get their hands on a Nexus. Everyone was in their cars until about 8:50, then one guy opened his car door and the race was on. I was third in line.
Most people stood there in silence waiting for the door to open, while a few of us chatted about the phone and kvetched about VZW's handling of the launch. As they were about to unlock the door, a guy pulled up and as he was walking to the back of the line, I asked him "So, are you here for the iPhone 4S, too??" Laughter ensued, and then they let the first five of us in to claim our unicorns.
This phone is every bit worth they hype, by the way.
The exact same thing happened to me (the timing) but because it's sort of cold in South Dakota in December they let us wait inside as soon as we started a line.

Dang. Oh, well. I used my last "New every two" update for this, so I actually walked out with the phone and a pack of screen protectors for a little over $250 with tax.
There weren't a lot of people at my Verizon store. But I was there at about 8:30 and some old grandpa got there right after me. He proceded to walk to the door and stand there till 9. Me and my girlfriend were making fun of him because he was the only one standing there. Everyone else was in their cars waiting.
When 8:50 rolled around we all walked to the door and the old guy said, "So you are here for the Nexus too?" I was super surprised because it's not often that you see an old person that is up on the latest tech. I felt so bad for stereotyping him....
We had at least 30 people in the store by the time I was checked out. They ended up telling people they ran out by the time I was walking out the door. I'm shocked.
some funny stories, wish I had my own. I will be going by later today to look at the phone. Not that im not completely sold. I just like to touch it and play with it before I pay for it. Also i usually wait a week to 10 days after release to buy a phone. I don't know if that means I am just old school. Also im kinda disappointed in the pricing structures as I am out of contract and want this phone and avail for upgrade, and it seems new lines are getting the best pricing. I was kinda thinking being with VZW for 10 yrs and putting up with all their **** should give me some sort of better discount. Oh well, I forgot the last time I paid for a phone (lg dare, droid inc, and DX all free) I will work my magic after xmas provided vzw doesnt do anything stupid between now and then
There was fifteen or so people waiting for the nexus I made the comment I feel like an isheep everyone laughed except the guy who told me he had iPhone oh well

Walked in. said I was getting a new phone. They asked which one and I said "The Nexus". Their response was, we never got our shipment in. I almost jumped over the desk and beat someone half to death. They were just joking and it took me all of 10 minutes to get everything going and out the door.
I was talking with them about the wonderful release, and they were pretty upset since the official notice for release didn't come out til 5 yesterday. They said they had to call in a few people that had the day off.
Got mine, many didn't.
So, I was in line at 9:45. The manager of this store had one set aside for me, but I didn't want to chance waiting until later. There were about 40 people there for the gnex. By 10:30 I was out the the door and they were turning people away, calling other stores to see if they had any in stock. The manager said they got around 40. The phone is sweet. Haven't rooted yet, at work, but this was worth the wait.
I was fourth in line at 830. There were 20 people behind me. When we went inside at 9 they were not prepared at all. Only 3 employees there. They didn't even find the phone until 910!! The guy told me that they didn't even know it was launching today until he pulled up and saw the line! I joked with the people in line though telling them we were a there for the whit razr. The Verizon rep then said, "there is a white razor?"... it was sad

Wow... It's times like these I realize how "techless" this place is... (Indiana)
City of ~200,000 people and I was at Radio Shack at 9:15am to find out they open at 10:00am (wtf?) so I went to a Verizon store next door. They had been open and one older lady was in there getting a feature phone. I asked if they had any Nexuses and he said "Yea, they are $249". I told him I was going to wait and see how much they were at the Shack so I left. Stopped in at a different Shack at 10 and no one was there but the manager. He said they would have some in today. I left for another Verizon store (non corporate) and there was one girl in there with a Droid. Nexuses were coming in later that day.
Finally stopped in at another Verizon store that had been open for over an hour and I was the only one there. I asked about the Nexus and he said "Yea we got some - you are the first one to ask about them".
I was there for an hour and ONE other guy came in and bought one.
5 stores, 3 hours - 2 Nexuses sold...
Went to the store in Centennial, CO around 9:10AM and was helped immediately. There were only 4 people in the store, two of whom were buying a Nexus, 3 including me. I got mine activated and walked out.
This is one plus to living in Gods waiting room. Here in SWFL (3/4 of a million people) and I was in one of the main corporate stores 15 minutes after opening. A guy was at the counter getting his Nexus, I got the second one and no one else came in while I was there. I'm perfectly happy for all the old folks down here to not get 4g phones, keeps it nice and open for the rest of us.

Anyone else get a little sad when...

...they change their old phone for a new one?
I mean, I've had my galaxy s2 for a year now, and it's been my trusty sidekick, never any problems, complete powerhouse and nothing has really made me want to change in that year until the One X which I will be getting later today.
I just feel that somehow I am betraying my sg2, it is still in pristine condition, has been flashed with different roms multiple times, mods etc... we've been through a lot together - I can feel it looking at me with it's sad super amoled plus eyes.
If the one x provides as half a good an experience as my sg2 has then I'll be a happy man. The sg2 is going to the mrs and I can already see how it'll be getting thrown into her bag with keys and other random objects rather than being safe in my pocket.
Be well old friend
Will feel similar with my HD2, though not at the same level as the SGS2 in terms of hardware, but our bonding is much older (since 2009), been oc'd to 1.5 and have seen Windows, Linux, Mango and got stuck with Android. I'm still quite happy with the first 4.2" multi touch phone and will feel sad to see it converted into just a mobile with songs and games when in the hands of my missus.
Well, I for one will not feel sad at all! That is because I am going from the ageing Desire
It has served me well so far and I am glad I will be staying on the htc bandwagon.

Came in to post almost this exact message. My Desire will be consigned to the phone graveyard of the third draw down in my desk, from which it might occasionally be called back into action, but will mostly be enjoying its retirement
I was really sad when I went from my old SE G502 to Desire...one, because I had never spent that much money on a phone and two, when I pulled it out of the box I thought "What have I got myself into??" But it was step I had to make and got over the initial sadness pretty quickly.
Now...I am saying goodbye to the Desire. Like the OP, it has been my trusty sidekick, I have looked after it like no phone before, rooted, ROM'd, and basically learnt a lot of tech things on this phone. I will still mess with it as Dev continues on that device, but I cannot wait to order a HOX!
I'll be sad, yes, but this is just the next chapter
I'm gonna miss my little Desire S ,never had a prob with it in the past year and it goes like the clappers ;(
No, not really.
I usually pass the old one on to my wife so I still get to give it the occasional tweak. It's not very rewarding though as I have to dress it up to look like an iPhone so she can use it.
I'm currently on a Nokia 6210 Navigator, you can imagine how sad I'll be when my HOX arrives
Wow. I hope one x blows you away otherwise 5+ years is a long time to wait for a new upgrade! For me anyway. lol
probably the wrong place to say this as i know everyone here hates apple, but when i sold my ipad 1 on ebay and had to wrap and ship it, i was sad too!
i had taken it everywhere, and it was in pristine condition, really looked after. used it pretty much every day for hours, and i was one of the first adaptors too (had it bought for me in the US a week or so after launch).
i don't feel that way about my iphone 4 though, its been getting sluggish and the home button is dodgy, and there is nothing special about the phone that i will miss, or that makes it any better or worse than the next phone i get (be it the Note, or the HTC One X, I still havent decided!)
Indeed. It'll be a huge loss to not only myself but my immidiate family when I get a new phone.
I will still pop round to see it at the weekends and sit with it in the garden and pour it some afternoon tea. I'm just glad I still have the memories. I remember ordering a Pizza on the dominos app and.... ohhh... how we enjoying those late night under the duvet while I was knocking one out on the youjizz mobile site.
You never know whats around the corner. Live each day with your mobile phone like its the last, but just remeber all the good times you had together.
As I'm coming from a Legend, I won't be sad at all. Well, thats a lie. It was a great friend for the past two years and no matter how often I dropped it, It's still in a great condition! It will go into my drawer together with my G1 and probaly be forgotten until i go on vacation this summer.
I gave (lent) my Desire HD to my cousin who is trying to develop some android apps and Im using the wifes Desire til the One X arrives (if it arrives, order kept getting cancelled by vodafone system for some reason)

Yeah, I do miss my phone when I send it off for sale.
However, I usually upgrade to a better phone, so that love usually vanishes almost instantly.

I'm going to miss my Desire, I've had it for almost two years now. But the shiny newness of the One X will more than compensate.
I'll miss my desire. It has survived countless drops on the ground, the rare times were I don't check the weather and end up cycling half an hour trough the rain w/o a jacket and many screw ups with roms and mods.
But despite that it's still going strong and still would for more than a year.
Also the fact that I've sanded the brown coating of the aluminium down giving it a total new look doesn't help when I'm looking for a new phone.

Haha I also bought a G502, it's the only phone I've ever bought without contract, so that was my most expensive phone. My next phone also was the Desire, but I didn't feel sad, I was relieved. And guess what my next phone is: a One X
The One X is not that expensive for my, I got a really great deal. A one year contract with 100 minutes + 3000 sms + 1 GB data and I got the phone for free. I pay 38 euro/month for 1 year. Total costs for 1 year contract: 455 euro. The price for the phone without contract: 550 euro
Yep - I'll be coming from an Evo 4g. It got stepped on a few weeks ago and I'm stumbling to the finish line with an old POS phone (as of yet, that phone is undetermined.) The Evo was my first smart phone or even high end phone for it's time. I loved it. That being said, the one X is just better in every respect (especially if the rumors about Sprint's one X coming with a kickstand are true !)

Pyroskins issues thread

Please use this thread for discussing issues with Pyroskins.
However, a message to everyone throwing around terms like 'scammer' - the fact that Pyroskins completed a huge number of orders for other people proves that they were not simply out to scam people, if they were then no-one would ever have received the case they paid for.
Clearly something happened that has caused the current situation to come about but the indiscriminate use of inflammatory language helps no-one.
Ordered one. Hopefully it will arrive quickly. I could justify three times the shopping cost for ups so will have to wait patiently here in the UK!

I hope you have better luck than me. I order mine about a month ago. A week went by with no shipping information. I emailed multiple times for a status. I ended up calling and left a VM. The next day I received an email that the package was to be shipped. Another week went by and the tracking information showed electronic shipping info had been received but nothing else. I again called 3 or 4 times and tried to contact the seller with no response. It appers they made it seem like it was shipped but still nothing. I ended up finding one on ebay that's exactly the same and it shipped to my house within 4 days.
I'm to the point where I'm going to get my back involved for a refund. I'm very patient as I know things come up but this was really dissapointing to me...

people looking to order a 360 case for their tab, you can find a couple of good ones on ebay !! So why not try there ... Its better than getting burned by Pyroskins ...
Yep, this is a scam. I ordered, then received a shipping email, then nothing.
Contacted USPS and they have not received anything on the shipping number.
PyroSkins won't respond to emails or phone calls.
I have escalated my issue with Paypal.
allthough people are giving warnings about pyroskins, I would also like to give a warning about this case:
I bought this case on ebay, and now I have newton rings.
7 months of using the pyroskins clip case = no issues.
1 week of using the 360 case = newton rings.
And since I bought the tab refurbished from a dealer in the UK, I do not have any warranty... ****.
I might try calling Samsung later today to get this fixed.
I've been using the 360 case from pyroskin for 6 months now on my Verizon tablet, no such issue. Could be a quality control issue though during casting of the plastic as i have two of them and they both fit a little differently, one is more snug than the other. Service from them back in January was excellent, not sure what happened.

Thanks for the info.... I am yet to receive my case from eBay... hopefully, I will not experience the newton ring problem!!! Keeping my fingers crossed.....
I have since removed the tab from the 360 case and put it back in the clip case. The issue seems to slowly get better. The newton rings have now disappeared and only rarely appear when I take the tab out of my bag. But they disappear on their own after a few seconds without me having to push on the back of the device. Yesterday, when I first noticed the rings, I was able to "control" them. I found out where/how to hold the device to make them disappear and where to push to make them re-appear. The later now no longer works, they appear shortly but disappear on their own.
I assume that the case I got (while not technically broken), seems to be a little bit too tight for the tab. Might be a rare situation, though as a lot of other people don't have any issues with it.
anyways, back to my clip case. phew
So, I thought I should give a quick status update: After not using the 360 case for 4 days (allthough I should clarify, I did not get the case from pyroskins, but from ebay. The case looks the same so I assume both come from the same source manufacturer) the newton rings are gone for good. I can not get them to re-appear at all.
Anyone able to get a hold of them yet? Feel like Im beating a dead horse but it doesnt hurt to try...

Btw, I got my 360 case from eBay. So far it looks like a good case. I hope I don't experience the Newton ring problem that another user reported.
I have escalated with paypal as well and have also filed a complaint with the local police department for fraud, as the address listed is a home in Chino I believe.

Unreal customer service: "Flygrip" pretty much rocks.

Two days ago, I ordered a couple of these: http://goo.gl/9PSGA, and even paid an extra 25 bucks for overnight shipping because I have this certain instant gratification issue I can't seem to shake...
Anyway, I got a tracking number but noticed it was only being shipped First Class ground, which meant a 2-5 day arrival. Obviously, they made a mistake, and I was a little upset about waiting after paying more for shipping than the cost of the actual product.
So, I went ahead and emailed them this morning at 10 a.m. about the issue.
Thirty minutes later, my phone rang with an area code I wasn't familiar with.
It was a dude named "Michael" calling from Flygrip.
He began by telling me that their shipping department had, in fact, dropped the ball, and apologized up front for that.
But, he also told me that he had just personally just driven over a replacement of my entire order over to FedEx to make sure I get them first thing tomorrow morning (FedEx wasn't the original shipper; it was USPS, and those are still coming).
I was pretty blown away by the quick, personal response, but not nearly as blown away as I was a little later, after I happened to re-watch one of their other videos.
That "dude" Michael?
Yeah, he was only the owner AND founder of the company, and had taken time out of his day to personally take care of my little issue.
I was doubly impressed again, to say the least.
Now, I'm just really looking forward to getting these and trying them out, (I got one for my SGSIII, and one for my Evo4gLTE.), and also wanted to ask:
Does anyone else use the "Flygrip"?
If so, how do you like it?
Or, does anyone else have a similar awesome customer service story concerning your Android devices?

whoa. that's awesome though. important to see a business that dedicated to satisfying customers. made me even more likeable to buying myself one.
im just getting into car sales and this is one of the most important ways to make the customer feel appreciated and will give them the desire to purchase from the company again. its a win win for the business because 1. you're satisfying the customer and 2. you're building your reputation. What you did with this thread was just show how good of a company they are and subconsciously referred us to buy from them. I know I will purchase from them. Excellent customer service goes a long way.

Would love to purchase the Electric color if anybody wants to sell.
I didn't even know about the whole campaign. :/
ordered midnight here in india...so looking forward...
With the unlocked bootloader, I hope there will be some development.

Just ordered the mint yesterday as well! Wew was lucky to even get one
Upgraded "my survey"
I hope my order goes through ok.
Month's ago, when the Kickstarter campaign was in all the tech news, because of it's success, I read about it. The phone sounded interesting, different.
It sounded really good, so I went to the Kickstarter page. I was in a rush, and I didn't have much money, so I quickly pledged $40 (for a cuddly toy, as it turns out)
I didn't really follow up on that initial involvement until this last week.
I contacted Kickstarter, and told them all this, about my pledge, and that I would now like to buy the phone, they've emailed me. saying they will "unlock" my "pledge survey", so I can extend it.
It seems this means, I can add a phone, two cases, and a wall charger, to my cuddly toy order!
Hurrah. So hopefully an "electric" blue phone plus charger, a red "bumps" case, and a clear plastic case, are on their way to me as we speak (plus a cuddly toy)
Seems too simple, perhaps nearly 18 months with Oneplus One have made me cynical.
Sold my iPhone 6s plus and went back to the Moto e getting ready for the Robin to show up. This is going to be a long 2 weeks. ?
Sent from my MotoE2(4G-LTE) using Tapatalk
My order is still sat there, which is good in one way, because, after much heartsearching, I've changed from electric, to mint.
As I upgraded my pledge, I was given the "community" choice, the electric blue end caps, I really like the end caps, but I wasn't sure about the dark body.
Also, I'd been seeing pictures, and mock ups etc, in the Mint colour, from the outset. It's obviously the teams first bold step, or I imagine it could be. I'd like to have been a fly on the wall at their early planning meetings.
So really, neither of the other two were synonymous in my mind with an attempt at unique. Whereas the Mint ,is.
So, I just went back through the order choices, and changed the colour. Very handy.
However, it worries me that by order isn't locked yet.
Does anyone know how long after placing the order, or upgrading your pledge, they lock the account, and send out the phone.
I have to say that it is the phone's style, and build, which attract me, There are some really simple ways to increase the memory capacity of a mobile device, an SD card slot being the most blatently obvious.
This uploading to the cloud sounds like a really clunky way of storing stuff.
At the moment, I use a Oneplus One, with 64GB onboard memory. Also I have a 64GB memory stick, with USB one end, and micro USB on the other end. With USB On The Go, you can have as much storage as you like.
So, I'm really buying the look, and hoping some of the XDA Developer Community, are turning their thoughts towards this little beauty.
the longest month everrrr. I ordered mine the minute orders were back up and it's taking 2 weeks to even start shipping ?
I was a Kickstarter backer and received mine yesterday. NIce looking phone. Feels good.
Wife is excited for it.
I ordered one last week. They're coming right off the assembly line into the shipping trucks, but I know they are doing their check before going out. I can't wait to get it!
