Hello all,
This thread is more for a rant of our current health care system and to possibly sell my Asus Transformer. About 3 weeks ago I was very Ill and was having issue walking and was placed on bed rest. In an effort to combat the boredom I got a Asus Transformer and the Keyboard Dock. I have gotten bad news from the doctor today. I have been diagnosed with Lymphoma. The analyzed a tumor previously removed and they have confirmed I do have that. This is a very scary thing because I am a 23 year old who is relatively in shape and of course as all of our parents would say "think we are invincible."
I now must unfortunately sell my Transformer to try and lessen the cost of the required surgery. My lovely health insurance tells me they will only accept "1 surgery" per 365 days. Now this tumor is on my Lymph nodes between my legs and causes me no only extreme pain but it is very uncomfortable for me to move and even go to the bathroom
I know that normally someone like me is not allowed to post these things here but I am sorry to say I am not really sure of anything else I can do.
I have the 32gb Transformer with a Keyboard dock. Asus was from Newegg and Keyboard dock is from Best Buy. Both will com with original boxes and the Transformer will even be wrapper in the original Plastic wrap.
My friend did root it and has Prime 1.4. It has a 4gb Micro SD card and will include the original power cable also.
So just to go over again:
1 x 32gb Asus Transformer (no marks and cleaned with sterile pad before shipping)
1 x Keyboard Dock
1 x USB cable and Power adapter
1 x 4gb Micro SD card
I am asking for $575 because even through 3 weeks old is not much it is still enough for some to make it drop $100 (after shipping and taxes).
I can accept only Google Checkout and not Paypal. I am sorry. If you would like to help me sell it or have any questions please ask. It has no scratches or Blemishes and will reset to factory before shipping. I can guarantee this is literally like you just opened it.
PICTURE SENT ON REQUEST. THANKS AGAIN ALL and I think a community like this is exactly what I need to help me when something like this happens
God Bless and if you want I can supply gory pictures of when my first tumors were removed.... very cool looking!!!

I have been raising funds for Cancer for a long time....You have my prayers and best wishes.
Good luck and keep fighting.
Sorry to hear your predicament but we have a MarketPlace to sell items as selling is not permitted in device forums.
Please create a post in the MarketPlace if you wish to sell your item on here and please do not discuss it anymore in this thread.
Hope you get the treatment you need soon my Mother passed away from cancer many years ago and I raise money every year for research
Thank you.
Mark.
Ya my mother passed away from it also. She had colon cancer though and she passed when she was 42. Sorry I know there is a marketplace section but I know with it constantly being flooded I was not sure if it would get sold in a timely manner. I have though included the picture of my previous lumps. Total weight of the 2 = 8.43oz!!!

Worst part was I was awake for the whole thing!!! But thanks for the best wishes guys. I try my best to help out around here so... I at least try and thought true I am breaking the rules but this is a certain circumstance. But once again thanks for understanding!!!
I hope your device sells mate.
You can beat this! Good luck and best wishes for your recovery.
You....were....AWAKE?!?!?!?!
Why!?!?!?!?
Do not ask me!!! I wanted to go to sleep but my lovely insurance would make me pay the whole thing if they did so..... I had to stay awake so they would pay for it...
I really hate Health insurance companies... they do every little thing to get out of paying!!
Where do you live and what insurance company is this so that I know to avoid them at all costs. WTF?! But glad you're doing well!
Cheers!
Rob a bank serious you will get medical attention...

On a side note while everyone jumped all over the 2nd post I still can't help but be sceptical of anything posted on the internet...
EDIT: Side note 2 we had to deal with ER/surgery/etc several times and I have a way of dealing with them
If I could I would just give you the money, and you could keep the tab. Im just a poor 16 year old. Best of luck with you surgery! Keep up posted!
Here is the marketplace thread guys if you would like to direct anyone... and thanks again for the support

I can appreciate your response but (and am NOT defending insurance companies, I have had many dealings with them in my practice) but many biopsies are done under local anesthesia and not primarily due to cost factors. Sample location is a reason, practitioner preference and mostly safety. General anesthesia is laden with many possible negative outcomes and often avoided whenever possible. There could well have been other risk factors with Handshake87 that contraindicated a general.
That said, I wish Handshake well. If my TF weren't performing so well I'd purchase it in a heartbeat.
oh gosh, here in Canada our government pays for all or most of our health insurance.. hope you get better.

You might however want to edit the MarketPlace post a bit as you have copied it from this post:

I have the 16gb Transformer with a Keyboard dock. Asus was from Newegg and Keyboard dock is from Best Buy. Both will com with original boxes and the Transformer will even be wrapper in the original Plastic wrap. ITS 32GB RIGHT?
Hope it sells quickly

I hope you get better OP! Screw the insurance companies... that's ridiculous that you had to be awake!

Sorry to hear that, hope you get well soon mate..
US health system is scary. In Germany you wouldn't have to mind how many it costs and how many times you need an operation. You just pay 10€ / day for hospital and if you can't pay, they do. No credit or payback.
The social system won't let you down or throw you out to streets. It can happen, but those people are just stupid and refuse to work or to take care of their papers. If they couldn't work, no one would ask them to do so.
Related
Can't find the market place, yet I read the "Forum and Marketplace" rules. If this is not the correct place, please let me know and move this topic.
First, wanted to thank everyone for their wealth of knowledge. I used this forum to modify all of the Android phones to make them mine. I have 2 Vibrants, A G2, Captivate, and Droid. This place makes using and modifying these devices a BREEZE. Again, thank you everyone who contributes here.
I have a 2 day old G2 for sale. I put my sim card in, organized my contacts, put Fancy Widget, TAJM, BattStatt, and LauncherPro on it. That's it. Decided to sale it because I have many phones, and this phone seemed to be the one who would recoup the most money.
It has everything that comes with the phone from the factory. Also has a hard case and hip clip brand new from T-Mobile.
Everything you get at the store, you get here.
If there is anything that you need, just let me know. I can give out the IMEI number to anyone seriously interested.
I am located in Mobile, AL and would love a local sell, but I will ship.
You can PM me or just reply here. I will be checking all day.
**Im posting this on the laptop now, and when I get done I am going to take pics on my Vibrant and add pics from that phone immediately.**
Again, if this is the wrong section, Im sorry. I tried to locate a proper 'Marketplace', but I am a few fries short of a Happy Meal.
Thanks guys,
Exx
PICS***
It says I can not post pics because there is a restriction on new users. I can email on request, until I can get a mod to let me post pics.
Sorry guys.

lmaoooo is the bish serious? crackberry for android. one of those accesories better be a g1 because i'd pick a g1 over crackberry, unless its a crackberry torch. that phone is kinda awesome besides the small keyboard for small fingered people.
Is the HTZ Desire (A8) a good trade for the G2?
I like the look of the phone, and don't mind having it as an extra. What do you guys think about the phone?

Depends on what state/country maybe?
She's a US citizen and resident, so it'll be 18 at minimum. The only state exceptions are higher ages, like 19 and 21.
In AL, age of consent is 16 my friend. Step your game up.

Well my wall charger finally died.... well I think it did. Wont charge anymore. Tried everything
Freezer.
Pry Out Prongs
Made my own charger... still wont charge. So I'm thinking the USB cable died. Not a problem ill head to the store. Sold out everywhere.
I love android, but I wish we had the backing of Apple, Apple's product are in every store... Cases, chargers, docks.
For the love of god if you want to compete with Apple, copy a couple things from them. If you want to release a new tablet, make it available in a couple weeks. I get ready to spend money and its months and months away. The excitement is gone.
But not now im stuck without my tablet I use every day... and the Asus store wont put my order through...
Oh hell yea, lets get this flame fest started.
Yeah, Asus is terrible. They killed my cat and stuffed in my mailbox.
Its not to start a flame war... but I did get the charger working... must have been my usb port on the transformer cable
cut the male end off and wired red/orange to + side of 12v 1amp charger and the - end to the braided line? and its charging now..
just have to get some stuff from radio shack to tidy it up ..
just cant connect to computer now till I get a new line
Well, that's good, because, from what I was reading, it sounded like you were suggesting that ASUS should open a chain of self-branded retail stores where they can carry all of their products in every store. Where to even begin on that?
If we're lucky, once ASUS does indeed open all their own branded stores, they will hopelessly lock down our devices, charge us double the cost and then make us submit to random drug screening to use their products too.....
I called the Best Buy in Ames Iowa to see if they had the screen protector for my TF101 in stock (they install them too for a nominal fee).
The sales person that got on the phone chuckled at my request and actually said "If it doesn't have an "i" in the name, we most likely will have to special order it."
How lame is that?
To top it off...he was right. Not one in stock and none scheduled to be shipped to them unless I special order it and wait 2 weeks.
Well I knew dumb and dumber would be the first 2 to comment. Or the first 2 flammers should we say.
well funnily enough the bbc reported a couple days ago that Google are planning to start selling tablets directly and that Samsung and Asus are part of the range they plan to sell.

Was and is you.
I on the other hand have never even been talked to by a MOD here. Ever. Since 2008. But you go on thinking you have a clue.
Even as such; I won't tell you I never called someone out for posting lies, wrong information, not searching, or just posting something inane. Such as this thread. We aren't Asus. Posting it here was useless.. Not to mention we also have a whole forum devoted to accessories and thier discussion.
Your issue is that you don't comprehend what trolling is. You call ppl names, you insult ppl, you curse. You attempt to belittle, Calling ppl dumb and dumber or Kid is trolling and against the rules.
But I don't expect you to understand that. So instead I report it.
Which; if and when you feel I have done something wrong, you should do the same. instead of, Trolling to argue in threads.

Not sure how my post was a flame. My post actually prevented people from flaming the OP because it would make them feel ridiculous to fulfill what I predicted.
Did you expect people to reply constructively to the OP's post when it was just another rant about Asus compared to Apple?
You've been on this forum since 2010 and you should know from your recent experience that threads of this type do not turn out to be anything but a flame fest.
Your post is actually the first inflammatory post in this thread. Grow up.
I'm suprised this thread is still open...

The real problem is Apple has complete control over it's hardware. All iPhones and iPods use the same charging cable. All iPads use the same cable. So it's really easy for a store to stock 1 Apple cable that covers everything.
Google has little control over the hardware that Android goes on. And forcing requirements on manufacturers kinda defeats the whole open end thing they were going for. Stocking the proprietary cable for every Android device would take up quite a bit of shelf space for a product that will probably sell pretty slowly. Comparing the two is comparing apples to oranges. No pun intended.
What we really need is for manufacturers to get together and take the EU approach. Every phone/mp3 player/tablet uses the same connection. Whether that means micro-USB or some other interface. But, that's a pipe dream. They make a killing off of proprietary hardware that is easily damaged.
THIS WILL GO NOWHERE.... Sorry ... THREAD CLOSED
to the OP: i thought that my charger had died. turned out the UK adaptor part had come slightly loose. it took a fair effort to slot it back but it worked fine thereafter. just something to think about.
I already sold my Nexus S and ordered a Galaxy Nexus. It's time for an upgrade. :angel:

And in what way is this not trashing someone without a reason? As a matter of fact, you're getting very personal and insulting, way more than he did with good reason. If we had any Mods left, this post should get you a ban of 14 days, just to think it over.
I wanna part with the Nexus S, too. It's a pain using Chrome on Nexus S (I tried several ROMs already).
But I think I'll hold back till the end of the year. I hope Google's going to release another flag ship phone

I am planning to get one but cant decide what to look for. Tab 2 has a 4000 mAh battery. there were some with 5000 mAh capacity.
Moreover our device takes 2A at 5V for charging, anything less than that would mean a very very long time to charge.
So I would wondering if anyone has any experience with that..

WTF Happened in the CM10.1 thread today??
I get home and there's like 40 new posts and everybody's all fired up...
My 5 cents('cause there's no penny in canada anymore):
It is one thing to report an issue and ask for support. This can be helpful and constructive.
It is completely another thing to make demands of ANYONE here. No one on XDA is getting paid for anything that they are sharing here. They do this for one of two reasons; First if you are doing any work XDA Forums are a great troubleshooting tool, even if the final goal is to turn a profit, as a user/tester you get to use their software free, its win/win man. Second you may, like me, just love trying new things and challenging what is possible even if you do not own the device, and your only reward is knowing "I did it".
When users make demands instead of useful posts it does make one feel much less like sharing. I have been a member here since 2008 but my first post was not until 2012 because between the search function and being able to make certain leaps of faith there has not been one time that I couldn't find the answer, even if it wasn't the answer I was looking for (I think of it as gaining "The Knowledge" to where I felt my opinion was valid, but that's my own hangup). To my point, I was too nervous to share anything I had created because I felt like two things would happen. It would be ridiculed and torn apart due to my lack of knowledge, and whiny "users" would rain all over my parade, pointing out the most miniscule flaw.(Never even mind, demanding that I fix it!) I personally think I have never been the first person to report a bug on anything I have tried. I assume that it is my own lack of knowledge that has led to the failure and set about trying to solve MY problem. I will admit that when reading a thread with a post reporting a problem that I too have experienced, I may chime in to report that I am in the same boat, but only if it can be accompanied by advice as to how I am either working around it, or on it. If I've got nothing constructive to add a simple click on the "thanks" button of the original post reporting the problem is enough to let most OP's know that another user shares the issue.
Please can we all just try to keep our posts constructive and honest, keeping in mind the nature of the forum which you are posting in.
The snippets that were left after Siberian Tiger cleaned up were still enough to paint a pretty terrible picture. For a short time today this was not a "Community" in any way. And users need to know that if they will not act as a member of a community they will quickly find themselves unwelcome in it.
Blah! That got too wordy, sorry. And thank you if you actually read this far. And sorry again because I know that reads condescending and I feel a little like a DB, but its from the heart. I still kinda feel ****ty, usually writing makes it better...
Love XDA, and xda users. I have seen some pretty amazing developments over the years, impossible is nothing here.

Edit: I just want to add that codeworkx latest CM10.1 with ketut.kumajaya's oc'd kernel is my best android experience yet, on any device. Book it. That's the collaborative nature I'm talkin' about! Thanks again.
I regret buying my tab 2 10.1. It's a great tablet but there's not much support on it and I could have bought the note 10.1 for a little more ;(

The note doesn't have that good of support either. Nexus is the only way to go.

_n0p_ has now received his replacement device !
Thanks to everyone for your support !
Collection has now ended, you and other donors have achieved almost usd118 in just three days.
_n0p_ prefers to wait for a complete device donor/sales until the 8th.
Do YOU know anyone who isn't using his Streak anymore
Are YOU willing to sell your device for usd117.95 to _n0p_/Sergei
Please make yourself known
If we can't find a donor and/or buy a complete device before the 9th we will go ahead and order a replacement screen for _n0p_.
Collection phase said:
Lets pull together and donate a new replacement screen or device towards Sergei/_n0p_'s Dell Streak. For some reason the rules prevent Sergei to receive donations so I will host this event.
I suggest donations in the range of usd10 - 100. Just click the donate button, I hope it works, first time for me to make one ....
If you want to donate your device, let me know and I will transfer whatever we have collected to you after Sergei have acknowledged the shipping has arrived.
If we can't find a replacement device we will order a screen and send it to Sergei.
Most likely I will just go ahead and order a screen and forward it to Sergei when I receive it.
Donate
PS. I have not yet purchased anything so I may need some help to find the part or device.
Please show me the least expensive option including shipping to Sweden / Ukraine
Total of $117.95 received 2013-01-04 CET18.06
$10-0.69+5-0.5+15-0.89+15-0.89+10-0.69+25-1.28+15-0.89+10-0.69+11-0.84+10-0.69=117.95

Well i'm in. 98K79799B85917119.
Common lets get this done in quick time before Sergei gets the chance to fall in love with another device :laugh:
Done, just donated USD5
4VR80976K44521744
Added the option to donate complete device, this may actually be the fastest way to get Sergei up and running again.
one more little contribution 15 US $
paypal confirmation numberl: 3TE661439M896160S
good luck
Kind of strange, not a single Dell Streak 5 on the market in Sweden, seems like most people want to hang on to this device !
[42/100][Donation] _n0p_ Streak Kernel developer needs new screen / device
Thank you to those that already have contributed !
Yes, that's right, we are already at 42% -shipping, lets not rest until we are at 100%, so if you have the option please don't wait for others to do the job!

Ok guys, I'm really impressed by the generosity of the people who have contributed. Had we let it run for longer I'm sure we could have thrown in a Ukranian car with the screen.

So that leaves 2 things
usd11 and we are good to order a replacement screen
Donate your device and receive whatever we have collected
I will try to remove my donation from paypal tomorrow, so this is your last shot at showing your appreciation !

We all love you Sergei!
Thank you for your efforts and time.
Thanks to all who has participated and especially to those who donated !
We are now waiting for _n0p_ to decide if we should wait for a bit longer for a device seller/donor to appear or if I should just go ahead and order a replacement screen.
Do YOU know anyone who isn't using his Streak anymore
Are YOU willing to sell your device for usd117.95 to _n0p_/Sergei
Please make yourself known
It seems as the only way to remove a donation is to remove the email from paypal, I will have to think about that...
Please do not send more money we have usd118 which is more than we were trying to gather.
Thanks again !
Let's give it time till 8th and
THANK YOU!
A late arrival brings our total up to 117.95 for anyone wishing to sell/donate their device!

If Streak in good condition, not operator locked and you agree with accumulated money count - we could make a deal i think.

Yeah, that's the sad part of all this. I have an AT&T Dell Streak. I got it running DSC and I've really been able to get the most out of my phone with it. It's got a bit of cosmetic wear, mainly around the corners. Only big problem with it wuld be the battery and the fact that the plastic guiderail broke off. All of the pins are ther but now it just requires I be a little more patient and plugging in my cable else i'd screw the pins up. Oh and the plastic cover doesnt latch anymore due to the fact that the plastic tension clip has snapped. The cover stays but is a lot easier to get opened.
