Is the N4 being sold from Tmobile the same as the one being sold on the play store? I would be using is on ATT.
Thanks

But it costs nearly $200 more than from the Play Store...so why would you get it from T-Mobile?

Ok, so to purchase it on contract is $300. The $49 is due up front with the remainder getting paid off monthly over the remainder of the contract until the full $300 price of the phone is paid. So, to leave T-mobile and use it on AT&T, you would have to pay a $300 ETF plus the remainder of the $300 balance of the phone. If those things are not paid, T-mobile will blacklist the phone. T-mobile and AT&T now share a blacklist database, so the phone would be rendered useless.
If he is planning on buying the phone second hand from someone that already has it, if that person stops paying for the phone or stops paying their bill, it will also be blacklisted.
No, i'll buy it directly in T-mobile shop, there is some good price now for Nexus 4 my friend told me, so he will buy it for me.
**update
Finally T-mobile Nexus 4 arrived at me, and even many of you here wrote that Nexus 4 comes factory unlocked, it's not true at all ! This one is bought from T-mobile USA, and can't be used with sim card from my GSM provider here in Europe , when i insert micro-sim card from my european GSM provider, no GSM signal, it's locked !
So please if someone of you, know how to sim unlock of T-mobile Nexus 4, post here!?

Switch, it's worth it. I just went from 66 kbps on Sprint here in NYC to 2 Mbps down mid-day on Straight Talk (AT&T) on my international Galaxy S III. And it's only $45 a month. It may not be real unlimited, but it's still much much better than Sprint's completely useless data speeds.
Also, off-contract the US ones are $649, so say $750 after tax. May as well go with the international ones from Amazon. If you want a penta-band one though, go with the T-Mobile one. It also has AT&T bands. The AT&T one only does AT&T bands. The cool thing with Straight Talk is if you choose AT&T compatible SIM it works in locked AT&T phones and if you chose T-Mobile compatible SIM it works in T-Mobile locked phones (both work in unlocked phones as well).

http://slickdeals.net/f/5048656-T-Mobile-Galaxy-S-II-No-Contract-for-299-Walmart
taken from slickdeals.net
"T-Mobile Galaxy S II No Contract for $299 @ Walmart
Available at Walmart Wireless locations now:
T-Mobile No-Contract Galaxy S II for $299 with activation of one of the following:
T-Mobile Prepaid Monthly 4G - $30 and up monthly
Walmart Family Mobile Activation ($25 activation kit which includes SIM card)
Details:
Existing Walmart Family Mobile customers can apparently still get the $299 deal. Existing Monthly 4G Customers cannot get the deal, however they can activate the new phone and should be able to call in to transfer their previous account info into the new account.
I'll be answering questions here (also on the page linked below). Walmart does have these, look at the photos on the page. Ask someone competent in the Walmart Connection Center and ask if they have them in stock. They got the update on their computers last week on the deal and how it works. Stores received them between August 8th through the 13th - some earlier.
Source:
http://www.thatsitguys.com/news/t-mobile-galaxy-s-ii-goes-prepaid-at-walmart-349
Adding this to clear up questions
There seems to be a lot of incorrect assumptions on here as well as a lot of misinformation being given. Let me clarify everything. Also, it would be worth reading the info listed in the source.
This deal works ONLY at Walmart stores back in the Connection Center. Stores should have received them and should have the info tags posted next to their Walmart Family Mobile display. There are no additional discounts or rebates available on this. The Galaxy S II is $570 outright, so you are effectively getting this phone for $270 off already.
There are two separate ways to attain the Galaxy S II for $299:
¤ Activate a Walmart Family Mobile account. This will require a $25 activation kit, which includes your WFM SIM card. For more info on that, view the source. Existing customers of WFM should be able to get this deal after confirming their account.
¤ Buy the Prepaid variant - aka, the T-Mobile Monthly 4G Pink Box. This includes the Prepaid SIM card in the box, which they will activate for you. You must get a monthly plan valued at $30 and up.
Not all stores have these phones yet, but that has to do with their ordering system and their competence."
Not bad at all, at that price its kinda just better to get the Gnex though. To each his own though.

Agree with you there.. Galaxy Nexus is a way better phone (IMO) for only $50 more.. and its unlocked so you are not limited to WFM or T-mobile. You could use StraightTalk if you wanted.. which is what I use..
This offer on the S2 is still a good opportunity, special since its the only Decent phone available for Prepaid customers (WFM is prepaid too)
(hunting a deal on the Galaxy Nexus, need one for the girlfriend )
Also of note is in Canada the same version of the SII (just minus t-mobile branding) is available for $300 with a $100 gift card from Koodo or $150 on their tab

I went ahead and grabbed one of these for a couple of reasons. I really wanted a risk free way of trying out Tmo $30.00 plan and the Galaxy Nexus is $80.00 more for me in Cali after shipping and tax.
Since these are going for more on the local CL I can try out the service and then break even when I sell it.
It's going to be interesting carrying my Gnex and the S2 around at the same time. Both are pretty good sized phones!

Is there a way to tell the difference between a T-Mobile USA Nexus 4 sold by T-Mobile vs one that was sold directly from Google or someone else? I'm looking to buy a used Nexus 4 but with the latest trend of people buying phones from T-Mobile on payment plans and not paying then T-Mobile blocking the IMEI I'd prefer a used phone that was bought directly from Google and not from T-Mobile.
Any way to tell based on SKU, serial #? Thanks...
I can't answer your question about telling the difference, but when I sold a sprint phone on craigslist the guy wanted to meet up at a sprint store and make sure everything was in the up and up.
Maybe you could arrange a meet up at a t-mobile store

they are exactly the same, from tmobile and the play store. theres nothing differing between the phones. the only thing different is where you buy it. tmobile could block the imei if you bought it from the play store too, if they had reason. when your phone goes onto the tmobile network, the imei number registers.
The T-Mobile Nexus 4 is the exact same phone as the phone purchased through the play store... They are both Unlocked and can be used on any gsm network... I would guess the only difference is that T-mobile can block the IMEI from being used on their network.. So if you buy one I would check with T-mobile and verify the IMEI or serial number with them to see if it is purchase through them... Same with the google phone.. I would think you could verify the IMEI through them
It's the same phone. However, T-Mobile only sells the 16gb model.
I'd actually say it is safer to buy a tmo model and check in store that there are no negative marks on the account before purchasing, with a google play model you can try calling ATT/Tmo to check the IMEI but who knows how long it takes for a stolen phone to show up in the database.
Buy it directly from Google play store. It's cheaper than tmobile.
Buying from a person doesn't fulfill your warranty either. Warranty is for the person who bought the device (there are ways around it but it's not worth the risk). No difference between tmo and the one from play store except tmo only offers 16gb whereas play store offers 8 and 16

Thanks all! I'm looking at the 8GB one so I guess that won't be from T-Mobile...they told me IMEI was not blocked on their end (at this point at least) and I'll check with AT&T...I think for any provider to block it if the phone was purchased from elsewhere other than the carrier someone would have to report it stolen but I'm looking to buy one off ebay so I should have documentation if anything happened?
My main concern was it gets blocked for someone not making their payments if they bought it right from T-Mobile...but I suppose one could report it stolen and if they have insurance they could get another phone and the one they sold would get blocked?

If they bought the phone from T Mobile then it wouldn't be the 8GB version. T Mobile ONLY OFFERS the 16GB variant.
Like I said before, I recommend that you do not buy it from any random user off of eBay or Craigslist. I've seen posts on the N4 forum where someone bought from Craigslist in person and then BAM! a couple weeks later, their phone was IMEI blacklisted and they just put down +$200 on a phone that is now a brick when it comes to having any cellular connectivity.
Only Play Store or through a friend/family member that you can trust are the viable sources I would go for when it comes to buying a phone from a third-party. Play Store is the safest way on getting your device.

Down Payment:$ 49.99
Monthly Payment: +$17.00 for 24 months
Down payment$49.99

T-Mobile (2 Year): $49.99 + $17 * 24 months = $457.99 (end of 24 months)
Google Play Store (Unlocked): $299.99 (8GB), $349.99 (16GB) not incl. taxes & shipping. Depending on where you will live 16GB will round out to be ~$405 or so (most likely less in other states as I live in NY and it was $405ish for me). You save yourself ~$60+ T Mobile N4 is a scam.
i got mine from Google, it's the ONLY way to go unless you need to pay for it month to month. Which I understand too.
I got mine for 199 from T-Mobile so that's why I got it from them (I paid for it up front, I don't do the installment payments). That's better then 349 at Google. But I had to use my upgrade. I'm glad I did cause now I don't have any upgrades anymore since the new plans kicked in. I'm on a classic 1000 min plan.

You said you used your upgrade, so you paid subsidized price. Which is absurd. $200 subsidized is the same for both the Nexus 4, HTC One, and Galaxy S4. While full price for the HTC and Samsung is around 600, while the Nexus is $299... And T-Mobile rips you off. It's cheaper from Google Play. I thought T-Mobile was trying to "change the game". Stop with the carrier bull****..
Let's think this through, Tmobile only blacklists IMEI's in 2 instances
1) The phone was insured, and reported lost/stolen.
- You can only insure the phone if it was purchased through tmobile. Anything purchased from the playstore is uninsurable
2) You are on a payment plan FOR THE PHONE and it is not being paid.
- For playstore the phone is purchased outright. There is no payment plan. The only way to have a payment plan is if you purchased the phone from tmobile.
If the phone was purchased via playstore, and the TMOBILE phone plan was not being paid, they would just suspend your account, but NOT blacklist your phone.
That said, if you can guarantee that the original owner purchased from the playstore (receipt with IMEI?) then you should be safe.
Does Tmobile only provide the black version? Maybe purchasing a white 16GB guarantees that it's from the playstore?
TMO has the Nexus 6 both 32 and 64 for $100 off.
Would this be a normal Nexus 6 or like the AT&T one that would be locked?
I want to get this for Google Fi.
Sent from my XT1095 using Tapatalk
T-Mobile's Nexus 6 is totally unlocked, would be the same as buying from the Play Store except only T-mobile would have the IMEI (so theoretically you will not be able to get a new Verizon SIM as Verizon will not add non-Verizon IMEIs to their database).
So it would work on Fi?
I guess I should just wait as I would like to have one that I could use on any carrier

Yes it will work on Fi. There are only 2 versions of the Nexus, US and International. Any Nexus sold in the US supports the same bands and will work fully on any US carrier. The only differences you will see are carrier logos on the models bought from AT&T and Verizon.
So if i got it from t-mobile I should be fine.

Yes it will work on Fi. There are only 2 versions of the Nexus, US and International. Any Nexus sold in the US supports the same bands and will work fully on any US carrier. The only differences you will see are carrier logos on the models bought from AT&T and Verizon.

Except that the ATT version is carrier locked to ATT (unless you pay in full, and get the unlock code)
Well I'm a new owner of a Nexus 6 midnight blue 32 gig courtesy of Best Buy matching T Mobile's price I was really wanting a 64 gig but I've never put over 20 gig on my current moto X 2014. Now to recoup some of my money my 2014 Moto X will be posted on Swappa.
Hope others can get this deal too

Pretty sure they'll honor it since you're still under the 15 day grace period.
Call them up.

what he said
I guess I should just wait as I would like to have one that I could use on any carrier
I bought my nexus 6 from amazon in April. I emailed customer service and was able to get them to price match. At first they denied my request stating that Amazon doesn't price match. But if u are persistent they will refund u the difference.
T-Mobile bloatware
I would buy this to use with my StraightTalk SIM.
Do the T-Mobile versions (even full retail price) have the usual carrier drawbacks - T-Mo bloatware, long wait for firmware updates, etc - relative to the non-carrier version? I've used custom ROMS with other phones in the past, but would like to keep this stock if possible.
After having a chat with a CS rep, they said I have to return the phone, to reprocess the order, and re-buy a new phone to get the promotional $100 off..... smells fishy to me
On top of that there's the $50 restocking fee, so I'd only net $50 for what should simply be a $100 price adjustment/account credit. Should I try reaching out to T-Force? Why does life always have to be so hard? Do I have to be an asshole???

I purchased my Nexus 6 64GB from Amazon about 2 weeks ago for $734. I took me a few tries but I finally got through to the correct department for Cell Phone price match and got them to price match T-Mobile at $599. You just need to be persistent.
Unless dealing with tmobo themselves...as my situation.

From what T-Mobile said to me, we need to return the phone and re-ring the transaction to get the $100 promo price. And then we pay $50 restocking fee even though we are keeping our own phones..... If you find out otherwise krozu, lemme know.

Yeah I got the same deal today got inventive since it was after T-Mobiles business hours lol
I am actually going into the store to pick one up today. Been holding out since it was a little steep for a nexus, but with 100 off it seems like the right price now... cannot wait to get back to nexus...
