Rooted CM6 HERO FOR SALE!!

Hi everyone, I have a CM6 hero that I'm not using currently, and I'm hoping I can find an XDA member who needs one for a family member at a fair price. I can provide pictures of it if your interested, but it's in good condition, just a scrape on the corner.
It's rooted, running CM6 -- I'd be happy to load any ROM or restore it to stock.
I'm looking for probably in the neighborhood of $130 or so.
PM me or reply to the thread!

Dude, not to bust your post. But you can get a refurbished hero from sprint for 70. Might want to lower your price a bit.

1) Mine isn't refurbished
2) That's about the going rate on eBay
3) I'm willing to entertain lower offers

XDA's marketplace is that way -> HERE

i am interested in purchasing your Hero, but my pm box is farting, so i am not able to send you a message. if you could send me a pm, maybe with your email, i would be able to talk to you easier. thanks
EDIT: I actually won an ebay auction last night so you dont need to pm me anymore

Guy at work sold his stock hero on Craigslist for $130. I was amazed until he told me he sold his wife's moment for $140 to the guys sister. I about spit out my coffee.

according to reports it will have a locked bootloader. not sure I'll be getting it at all - might as well wait another couple of months for the next nexus.

Its going to be rootable really fast cause everyone is saying its impossible

sorry, just looked weird seeing your name with no thanks attached.
what is the retail on the sensation?

499.99 from what I hear about it.
Faux

Oh yes, been waiting for it. It was either the G2X or the sensation. I'm going with the Sensation.
It's almost like the MT4G, except dual core and a bigger screen. But it's all good. I can't wait!

Why not just wait for the mytouch 4g slide?

I recently got my MT4G and wont be getting this...Guess I will wait for the Quad-Core android devices in 2013!
This phone should be good enough till then, or I can buy one from ebay and put it on the contract I have and sell the MT4G.

How can you guys manage to pay for phones like that? I mean, the earliest you could have gotten the mt4g was like what, 7 months ago? Do you pay full price for them or trade in your current phones or something?

These guys are trillionaires they can get things quickly, I wish I was so lucky to get a new phone that often . But I like my MT4G and I can always put Sense 3.0 or 3D on this thing

not true, I upgraded to the samsung vibrant back in july after it came out, then the mt4g dropped and so i bought it full price, which was like $400 and then sold my vibrant for $350 on ebay, so out of pocket it costed $50 for the "upgrade", so not trillionaires, just smart shoppers lol

true, if you keep a phone in great condition you can get a good resale value. as for me, I upgraded my sidekick 08 to the mytouch 4g and it cost me around $200 and Im keeping it as mint as possible

Yeah its pretty easy to sell a phone on Craigslist or eBay for a good amount then go purchase a new one at full retail.

I was only joking, i've been doing that with old phones when i see something new. Went from Instinct-->SK09-->G1-->MT3GS-->MT4G
But I had to get a contract to get the cheaper price, so now i have to keep this and cant sell it

Like i said, I work for an indirect dealer. I have my tricks, but get 3 or so phones on New contract price over a yeat

Guys, DO NOT GET THE SENSATION, get the g2x instead the sensation has a arm a8 processor (even though it's clocked at 1.2ghz), compared to the g2x's arm a9(clocked at at 1ghz), so it's actually a better processor, regardless of all the other specs.

Brand new g2 for sale!

So I did an insurance clsim on my g2 and they told me it was on back order and didn't know when they would have it. So needing a phone I just went and picked up the g2x. Then the next day the g2 shows up at my house. So now I have a new g2 that I need to sell. But I had to pay 130 for the claim so I need to sell it for atleast that preferrably more. A local phone store offered me 165 for it but I thot I should see if one of my fellow xda members wanted it first. If your interested send me an offer either in the post or pm me. Thanks guys, later

Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium

I dunno, I'm pretty sure mine was brand new from a warranty replacement from Tmobile. It came with android 2.2 still on it and if it is a refurb they did such a good job I can't tell. Also, they told me, "We'll send you a new or like new device", so isn't it possible to get a brand new one from leftover stock?

On a side note which band differs between the dz and g2?

It is called a deductible. You pay it when you file a claim with any insurance (auto, homeowners, mobile)

I see, well maybe they have a stock of new ones they never sold or possibly it is a refurb and they put 2.2 on it assuming you'll update it after powering up. Either way I couldn't tell the difference, it's a flawless refurb if that is in fact what it is.
I'm not 100% that all DZ's have the same radio but one from Roger's Canada will work on AT&T 3G, not sure about HSPA+ though and the G2 functions on TMo. Vague answer I know, but it's all I have right now.

I know they differ, the dz up here is from bell, tho most of us dz users up north are with rogers thank god for the sim unlock

Yeah it would most likely get edge only. That's what happens if you put a G2 on AT&T so I would expect similar results if you put one on Rogers
Sent from my Bulletproof G2

the difference between the rogers/bell DZ and the tmo G2 is the 3G band it supports. the tmo version only supports tmo's 3g bands (2 bands, 1 for up and 1 for down) while the rogers/bell support 3 (i think), one of which is compatible with AT&T's 3G band.
that and the G2 does not have Sense while the DZ comes with sense 2.1
i think that's about all the real differences between them.

Sounds like this would be a great 3G device for anyone in Canada on wind or Mobilicity (it is really hard to find a good android with a keyboard in Canada that works with Mobilicity and Wind).....I'm getting 3G data with my T-Mobile G2 on Mobilicity.

no because i didnt do an insurance claim.. i did a warranty echange through tmobile, but paid for it. i actually think i found a way to get a new fone cheaper than paying the $130. see if u call t-mo and tell them something is wrong with ur fone and u want to do a warranty exchange, they send u a new device (or refurb or w.e they send.) u send ur old one back and if they determine that it was something u did to the phone, they only charge u $105 to ur account. now u got a new phone for $30 dollers cheaper than insurance. well it seems my forum has stranded away from its origin. is anyone interested in this phone or jus determining whether its new or refurbed. lol

Id be interested in buying it off you depending on how much more than 130 you want..I'm still using a g1 and would love to upgrade to this phone as I've wanted to for a while

Dudes rockin a G1, sell it to him for the price of shipping, its only fair! everyone deserves a G2!

All i can say sell it to the store if no one want to give you 165 and up .

if you get no love here, put it on ebay, my brand new sealed G2 cost me $325 to my door last month! - and that is a typical amount they bring there.
I'd buy it for my girlfriend but I already spend WAY too much money on women!

Thanks for letting me know.But I already bought a HTC Barvo few days ago.I really wanted a MT4G.But it was hard to find one.Then I found a bravo.My gf told that she likes bravo too(I was looking a mt4g for my gf).So i bought it.

I guess I am Super lucky... My bro n law switched from ATT to Tmobile and got 2 new MT4G's. Used them for 2 weeks, and switched back to ATT. He sold me both of them for $80. Also Im not much a beleiver in the "good screen" or "bad screen" because I have had 4 MT4G handsets, all of which had the "bad" screens but they all were very vibrant and colorful...like looking at HD. Anyway, just wanted to say that MT4G are still one of the best handsets around imo....

Where to sell cracked Nexus 7 in Miami area?

Hi, unfortunately my Nexus 7 fell out of its case and now the screen is cracked. I'm using it with a mouse and keyboard now, as the touchscreen is the only thing not working.
I'm travelling right now and will be in the States for a few days, Fort Lauderdale and Miami to be exact.
As it'll be my first time in the country, I was wondering if someone could tell me if there are shops where I could sell my cracked Nexus 7 and how much I could expect?
Also, where can I buy a used Galaxy Nexus there?
Thanks!

We don't really have stuff like that here dude. There's shops by Miami international airport but I wouldn't recommend that. Try putting it in craigslist and list it as for parts.
BTW craigslist.com is a classifieds site, not sure if you know that since you're not from the US.

man if you make it here to orlando I might be needing one by the looks of it. Trade you for one with a google screen all nice and pretty, but on a serious note if you are in orlando maybe we can work something out. i would travel down there but It is a drive and I am only out there when heading to the ports Ft.Lauderdale or by South Beach that won't be until March next year.

Hey, yes it'd be cool if we could work something out. I am going to be in Miami between the 18th and 21st of this month. I am not looking for another Nexus 7, as I'm heading down to South America for another month and a Galaxy Nexus would be perfect in terms of portability. Let me know what you think!

If you're going to be in the USA for more than 3-4 days and you know someone here, I would recommend you just buy it through the Play store (or have them buy it and pay them back when you get here). It's 2-3 days shipping as they force you to pay for that and it's about $10 on top of the cost of the phone + tax.
The main reason is that if someone is selling what is more or less a new phone on Craigslist, there is a VERY high probability something is wrong with it. Like a friend of mine who going a Galaxy S III off eBay and now is stuck with a piece of crap that reboots itself randomly 5-6 times a day...or like when I bought a GS2 off Craigslist only to find it randomly powers off whenever it feels like it. So even if it seems fine when you check it out, you might be buying crap.
In other words, you are probably buying someone's problems in the high end phone area. You might also consider buying it new from a place that sells phones off contract. Most retails stores allow that as well. Not worth the $50-75 you might save buying it "used" off Craigslist.

if you want, id be interested in purchasing it from you. just let me know how much you are asking and maybe we can work something out.

Thanks for the info. Do you know how much tax it will be? From what I've read it should be 6% in Florida. Is that right? Buying it brand new is also an option for me, as it is still considerably cheaper than in the UK. From a quick search it seems most retailers don't sell the Galaxy Nexus for $349, as offered in the Play Store. Am I right in believing that?

Looks like 7% in Miami. Yes, $349 is the MSRP, so $373 should be your price when all done. Unless you go Play store, then add about another $9-12 for shipping.
