These phones are SUPER hard to come across! Basically its the 8125 or 8525 MINUS the camera. My boyfriend is in the Navy and due to security clearances is not allowed to have a camera phone.
Does anyone have one they are looking to get rid of or any idea of somewhere that has one for sale?
I've checked ebay and craigslist and all of that, no luck. I have a friend who works for Cingular (one in store, one at corporate!) and no luck with either of them, they both just said they are "rare" and would be hard to locate.
Thanks!
Remove the camera
I take it that your looking for this in due to workplace restrictions on camera phones? If so, would i work to remove the camera all together? For the 8125 it is fairly easy, just pop the upper back cover off and the camera disconnects.
Odds are you can find a cameraless cover for the back as well from one of the parts dealers.
Thanks! oddly enough the moment i posted this message everywhere I could think of, I found one on craigslist (in a totally diff city/state as me) that was willing to ship to me, and also one popped up on Ebay. If anyone is interested in an 8100 there is one on ebay right now ending on the 2nd LOL
Cingular usually only sells the 8100/8500 to businesses (as part of a B2B deal) because of the no camera restriction. I am unaware of any retail outlet that sells these versions.
I actually noticed it on the "corporate' site (i logged in with my work email for a "discount") for $249 after a 2yr contract, etc. I am looking for one as an Xmas gift, so signing a contract is really not much of an option, as the person I am buying it for isn't currently on a GSM provider, he'll have to sign up on one after receiving the phone. Such a pain! I had to pick the most difficult gift ever, right??
I've been looking for 8100 covers since it came out, without any luck.
Just the cover or the actual phone itself? Maybe contact HTC about it? I didnt really look for covers, because I figured disassembling the phone was... a bit much. It sounds (from above) to be pretty easy though, now that I located an actual 8100!
if you know where all the nozzles are, it's easy... In the process of finding out I of course broke one
I contacted nearly every HTC agency around the world, some don't even respond, some just say they don't have the phone and so no parts. Cingular (the only ones selling the cameraless Wizard) said I should contact my provider... and so on... a real hassle.
My beloved MDA dropped today...it still works, BUT, the usb port is loose, and Assurion doesn't have any to swap out under insurance...they offered me the Wing (gag me!). I am seeking a working Wizard with a solid usb port...locked or unlocked (hello lokiwiz)...
I will not respond to "you can have mine for $300"...I can get one on ebay for $160 or less.
If you have moved on and want to part with your WORKING Wizard, please contact me.
"you can have mine for $300"
Thanks.
You know, my mama always said::
"EVERYONE LIKES A LITTLE ASS, NO ONE LIKES A SMART ASS"
I'm serious. I am willing to pay the $110 insurance would charge me, up to about $160-ish, which is what I have found as the asking price on ebay
...if anyone has an old, but WORKING, Wizard, and you have upgraded to a new device and don't know what to do with the Wizard, please contact me. If the condition is good and your price fair, I would be very interested in getting it.
Thanks.
Y not take Wing?
It is the same thing as MDA but just thiner. Oh well - tastes are different, although I have Like New MDA that I am using currently and not really want to move on cuz it works for me at this moment. If it happens I hear from some1 that wants to sell, I'll pass that onto you.
Anyway - I wouldn't recommend eBay to anyone when it comes to buying MDA. Friend of mine bought 1 - supposedly refurbished perfect cosmetic condition and received BEATER!!! Scratches all over the phone, screen damage, opens on its own - I mean he was looking to get the deal and got bad beater phone. Later on he got brand new Wing from Tmobile.
MDA story was completed by seller not responding to his e-mails and he filled with paypal a dispute so he got the money back and never sent the phone back to the seller. He sold the phone as is on the ebay for 170$ ... with all the explanations and everything...
I bought mine on ebay and is LIKE NEW (Or even new!)
It depends on who you buy the products.. There are many sellers and many are legit!
If you havent bought yet dont say that...
pm'd with offer
If you go through eBay, just avoid "rob3474." I got a Qtek 9100 from him that was supposed to be "like new." Suffice to say, it has a lot of wear and needed some attention before it would function semi-properly. Still having some issues with it a month later...
I sent you a pm with an offer
Still looking...
I have not been very active since having surgery. I got some great PM's but a couple fell through, so...
I am still seeking a working, reasonably priced Wizard-preferably a G3. My main concern is not with cosmetics, I just need a well working Wizard with a very SOLID usb port.
I have been quite busy with doctor appointments and physical therapy, so please be patient with me, I will respond to PM's.
I am thinking about upgrading shortly, I have a fully unlocked G3 Wizard. Will let you know if I do decide to upgrade. It has typical scratches on the body, usb is solid and it works great.

Well I had a potential sale fall through, so I am again back looking for a good condition (solid usb port, gently handled) Wizard. Preferably a G3. I am willing to go as high as $150 with shipping, and will pay with Money Order or Visa Gift Card, or if you bank with Wells Fargo, a direct money transfer. I will NOT send cash (I do not trust the USPS and want to have a recourse if the payment is lost in the mail), and I cannot use Paypal because my account is frozen due to some supposed fraudulent activity (I suspect someone tried to hack my account). If you have an MDA in good condition and want to sell, please PM me.
Thanks.
Ill trade you my MDA for the wing that you are going to receve.
It is in good shape. (although I have to be honest I dropped it once or twice)
It was mostly held in it's case untill I lost it. then I bought a black plastic cover/skin for it. It doesn't look like I just bought it. The plastic cover I bought for 10 buck makes it look like it.
I could use an upgrade, but I'm not due untill september.
I love my wizard. it is very durable, and well worth the cost; so I won't be upset or offended if you don't take the offer
I hope you find what you are looking for. if not PM me
i'm buying a used att 8525 thats has scratches and dents but the screen is protected by a screen protector and has no scratches.. the owner says he's been getting dropped signals and believes it to be a software issue.. does anyone know whether it's be a software issue or hardware? it's only 100 dollars as is meant to be a backup for my tilt.. any help would be appreciated..
Never heard of that before. That would raise a red flag with me and I would kill the deal and go look on ebay instead. I've had mine for two days now - att 8525 - I love it.
alright.. i had a 8525 b4 i bought my tilt but just wanted a backup phone.. for when i'm flashing my phone and reinstalling stuff since it takes me a while to fully put everything back with such a hectic schedule.. i remember some radios having bad signal and thought maybe of jus reflashing the radio.. so i just wanted to see other peoples opinions as to whether it could have been a hardware issue..
I picked up my used 8525 on ebay - and the original owner also mentioned that he dropped the odd call here and there - and was having communications issues with the sd card.
I did some reading and searching on this site - and there are radios that have better reception than others - and dropped calls can be radio related.
I thought that the majority of the issues were software related - so took a chance, and picked up the phone.
I payed $50.00 - and thought it to be an okay price to pay on a maybe phone. I unlocked and installed HardSpl and have been flashing roms for a few weeks now.
Not a single dropped call - and no communication issues with the sd card.
Good luck with whatever you choose
Have a good one
Bill
I'm having to sell my 8525
I got migrated at work to the blackberry, so I am going to sell my Cingular/ATT 8525.
I re-flashed it to Official WM6 from ATT. It has IPL 1.04, SPL 2.10.Olipro Hard SPL v7. It has been a stellar phone.
It has 2 scrapes on the outer edge( before I got it a helmet) and NO scratches on the screen.
What is a fair price for a buyer and myself? I'm not looking to get over on anyone; I want buyer and myself to be happy.
Would come with all original boxes and power cables, 1gig micro SD, extra battery, charging stand.

You could always donate it
That being said, have a look on eBay and see what prices these things are going for. It's easier to get an idea of what the market is doing that way.
Hey .. let me know how much you want for it .. I just had mine stolen and to get a replacement here in Germany from 02 is 699 Euro wish is about 1000 US dollars. =(
I'm military so i do have a USPS address.
i'm actually trying to sell my 8525 as well. i just dont feel i get enough use out of it for what its worth.
think $325 is asking too much? i mean i paid $500 for it. i'd say the phone is in a condition of 9/10. there are two small scratches, one in the upper right and one in the bottom left. the screen is scratch free. its completely functional, i've never had any problems. hardly any wear and tear, i mean a few specs if you get up close with a magnifying glass.
i have all my original accessories & i'm throwin in a 2gb card. plus i have a load of software for the phone. right now it has the official at&t wm6 rom.
ps: if anyone is interested contact me darx07(at)gmail.com
EDIT: i'll sell it to anyone in US $300 shipped. anyone else, $290 + shipping.
I also wanna sell mine too...my sis got 1 cuz she liked the qwert but then now she thinks it's too big
Comes with a bluetooth bought from frys - brand 'Mini Blue', a bluetooth keyboard, a crystal clear case, a 1gb micro sd, and a car charger
i only have the items listed above, i do not have the wall charger, or the earpiece or the y-cable, etc...
there are scratches, but very minor, and the screen always had a screen protector attached.
Currently has K's Final Rom Full Ver and it's unlocked
$300 shipped
Paypal confirmed address only
Please PM me for more info n pics
I have just switched over to the Storm (which I am loving but missing the flexibility of the 6800) and so I am selling off my old 6800 on Verizon. It is in perfect working order except that the USB sync doesn't work with the computer (or at least not on mine). Would be good for someone who wants a spare or doesn't care about syncing with a computer, or someone who wants to try out ROMS etc on a spare.
Comes with box, accessories and 1gb Sandisk card for flashing.
Make sensible offers please. Email is rosshardy - at - tampabay.rr.com or reply on this thread and I will try to check in on it.
I have a buddy looking for one, I was going to help him find one on ebay but I like to help out members on the board here first. Any indication of price? Does the unit charge just not sync? Any scratches? Had a screen protector on it etc...
Yes it charges fine, just doesn't sync. Not unusual, I had 2 others that did the same and never worked out if it was hardware or my computer (I think hardware though). I should also mention that I have a car charger for it and another 4 gb card for media as well if the person is interested.
It has a minor ding, screen is immaculate, was only used for 3 months and I am obsessive about my phones. I can send pictures if you want to email me with your address.
Anything around the $150 plus shipping would be acceptable I guess if that seems reasonable? Or make an offer
hi sir, check ur PM...
I also have a XV6800 that I am looking to sell. I just had it replaced by Verizon, so it's a refurb with a 01/19/2009 refurb date. I can even give you the Factory diagnostics test sheet they sent with it.
Nothing wrong with it whatsoever.

How much? Looking for any trades?
I think a lot of people wanting a pda cheap (no data plan with 6800) on verizon will be picking these up. Keep posting up anyone who wants to sell theirs and we will try to find buyers! I will get back to my buddy and see what his budget is and all that. Thanks all!

Guys
There is a thread in general section dedicated to this propose
Let´s use it!

Hello Guys
I am a very very happy owner of this amazing device, the allmighty HD2. As one of the early adopters I really know the true value of this beast, ahem, baby
Recently i've decided to sell this device as I need the cash for upgrading to a samsung nexus. I thought I would have enough cash to upgrade without sacrificing this device (i even had plans for putting it in a glass showcase and keep it in my living room ) bcoz i've taken care of it as if it was a part of me
It really looks like new after 2something years...
Anyways, I thought that I wanted to give you guys a shot before i put it on ebay, if someone is interested to buy this phone because i believe that only people in this community can really appreciate this device and its specs, history and future.
I intend to put it on ebay after xmas if nobody is interested here but because i have love thing for this device i would prefer to know it falls into good hands and not some kiddo that cant afford an idevice
The screen is new without a single mark, spotless and i have a ton of accessories to give to its new owner...
I will provide tons of pics later on if there is some interest about this.
If you got any questions just shoot!
How much are you planning in selling it for
Sent from my HTC HD2 using xda premium
Hi!
I'm interested! My own was recently lost/stolen and I think no other device will be good enough for me
I can asure your beloved HD2 will be in good hands Can you show some pics? How much will it cost including shipping costs? (I'm from Portugal)
Thanks!
I hope your talking about a galaxy nexus... lol just saying and I think there's a section here for this kind of thing
Hi guys, thanks for the interest.
The phone in ebay ranges from £100ish up to £200+ for perfect condition.
Mine comes with accessories though. 2 extra batteries, one genuine htc and another extended battery plus the one that's on the phone
Desk dock for the phone that charges a second battery, 3 silicone gel cases in various colours, a wall charger for the spare battery, it also has a vinyl skin applied to it. Plus its box and accessories that came with it the only thing I've lost is its original pouch.
I think for all the above a price of €200 / £165 is a fair price.
I will post pics of everything as soon as I get home coz I'm at work now...
One requirement only : the transaction will happen through ebay and paypal so we can both have a peace of mind. Upon agreement here, I will post it on ebay with a ridiculous price and then you can make an offer which I will accept of course
Also will post fully recorded / insured around Europe for €10
Sent from my HD2 using Tapatalk
So, we're talking about 210€ including shipping costs, right? Won't you make it 200€? Or maybe could you sell it without accessories for a lower price? The one thing that I would really appreciate is the pouch, because that's the only thing that was lost/stolen with my HD2... Either way, if the device is in good condition I'm interested, please tell me what you are willing to do and show some pics!
Also: I'm supposing we're talking about an european device (given that you have a flag from Greece).
Oh, another thing I remembered: does it come with an SD card?

Its the European Edition bought originally from UK. Bought it sim-free so it was completely unlocked and unbranded (not that it matters now in android world, just saying )
I will provide an 8gig class 4 microsd which is already in the device and if i remember it right, there should be another one 2gig which came with the phone, which should still be in its box, but i will let you know for sure later tonight with the pics.
I will gather all accessories and make some pics tonight from home, its my lunch break now so not enough time for this
sorry for the late update, its a really busy period at work these days...
i managed to get some pics of the accessories which you can find in this picasa album here: htc hd2
please note that the desk dock supports 2nd battery charging and it also has a 3.5mm plug so you can use the phone for playing back music in a pair of desk speakers with 3.5mm input, for example pc speakers. i didnt like that so i opened the dock (just 4 ordinary screws) and pulled this 3.5mm inwards in the casing. of course if you like it its very easy to pull it back out again. The headphones which can be seen in their case there have been opened and used twice, because i have another pair from my desire that i use daily and at some point i thought i lost it, opened this one, two days later found the desire one and its been in its case since then. whoever gets he phone will confirm this, the headphones do look unused.
pics of the actual device will be uploaded first thing in the morning in the same folder (with the same link) and i will update my post here as well
As promised, multiple pics of the device can now be found on the same picasa folder i linked above...
same link here if you are too lazy to look above Da Album Link

Trust me i know what this phone is capable of... believe me its a very hard decision to sell it. If i had enough money i would never sell it
even if development dies in a couple of years still its one of the most historic devices ever created, if not THE most historic...
Allright, the device seems to be in good condition. Just 2 questions:
- It's got a screen protector applied to it, right? Is it easy to remove? Not that I don't recognize that it's important, but I might not like to see it live
- The skin in the background: is it easy to remove (leaving no bits or glue)? Once again, I might not like to see it live like that
Also tell me your thoughts about selling the device by itself only.
The screen protector is very easy to remove, i have changed many protectors and same quality as this one (the phone has never been without screen protector).
The vinyl in the back should be removed without leaving residues of any kind. Its the first i have applied and i havent removed one yet to know for sure, but its advertised as "easily removed without leaving any glue residues". Its made by Gelaskins.
Finally i dont want to sell the phone by itself as the rest of accessories have no use for me afterwards and i selling them by themselves one by one have no real value in ebay...
so its sold with everything pictured
Ok, I think everything's clear and fine concerning the device. Concerning the rest, that's what I was thinking, but it didn't harm to ask
So, what's next?
Goodmorning and Merry Xmas
I believe that the safest way for both of us, is ebay, especially for you with the buyer protection act. So i will post it there with a ridiculus price of buy it now something like £500 and i will leave the "make offer" option open. I will PM you the link of my listing and you can go there and make me an offer of 200€ which of course i will accept
I will backup my stuff and take it out of the device as i'm still using it, factory reset it and pack it so it will be ready for the post office as soon as the ebay transaction is cleared.
PS: right now I'm with Hyperdroid's CM7 rom with dorimatrix kernel do you need another rom flashed or should i just reset to factory defaults and leave the rest to you?
Good morning, Merry Christmas!!!
OK, I'll be checking my inbox for the link. As for the ROM, you can leave it like that, I like to flash and try new ROMs anyways
