Bricked LGOG resurrected by mobiletechvideos.com - AT&T LG Optimus G

So I was trying to restore my phone to stock from the N4 conversion. I was a bonehead and accidentally restored the wrong partition image and then my phone was toast. Thanks to mobiletechvideos.com, I am writing this message from my phone.
Thanks guys, I really appreciate your work and would recommend them to anyone.
That being said, I'm planning on building my own JTAG very soon.

What was your turn around from when they received your device? And if you don't mind, what part of the country are you from?

Georgia.
They received it on Wednesday and I had it back in 7 days. I did pay for rush processing and expedited shipping. So $95 when it was all said and done.
JTAG http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_Test_Action_Group
It's a low level way to interact with the phone when the primary os is not installed or borked like mine. My solder fu is not that strong yet, so I didn't want to attempt to figure it out myself.

Then the vibrator motor is probably connected loosely. Might wanna mention that to the guy in case it quits working.

Nope but I took it part myself and the connector for the digitizer wasn't plugged in all the way

That's still bull****. I'd dispute the credit card charge.

Its pretty annoying but he did fix it . I just wish he would have taken more time to test it after he finished

I'll fix this post in the "morning."

I have had two experiences with Mobiletechvideos and my Samsung Galaxy S3.
Bricked it in January -- sent it off and it was back to me in under a week. Worked like a charm until,,,,,
Two weeks ago I was flashing a custom rom when the battery died. My fault.... sucker was dead, dead. Sent it back to Mobiletechvideo on a Thursday (overnight mail). It was back in my hands the following Saturday. Working just like new again.
These guys are great - I appreciated that they communicated with me through the process.

Haha i dont know if i can stand touchwiz and the cheap plasticky feeling of a Samsung phone. Not to mention the blueish tint of the screen. :/

How do you like the sgii compared to the EVO 3d, I haven't played with it much other than just in the sprint store
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2
I got a white one today from them. I actually dropped my 3d off the balcony. I can honestly say it was a blessing in disguise. The ET4G is too smooth.

Damn. Wish I had $100. Maybe they'll be out for a while lol.

Believe me, the new Touchwiz is much better, I used to couldn't stand it either, but after a week with my E4GT & running Calkulin's ROM I love it, I'm on the new CM9 alpha that just dropped this evening right now though

What does a guy have to do to get a Galaxy Nexus? Jelly Bean is looking too smooth.
Are they refurbished ones?

The one they offered me was a Samsung d710-standard so I'm assuming its just the black one , id rather have white but ill take the black, I was also wondering the same thing are they refurbish or new?

I am wondering what I am going to end up with.
I brought my phone in for a bad screen they replaced it under TEP. Right after I left I noticed after they fixed my screen they broke my microphone so now people can't hear me on the phone. I have been waiting now since Monday for a replacement and when I call Sprint store to get info on it they tell me there isn't even a tracking # entered yet for my replacement phone.
I called Sprint saying I want it replaced with a EVO 4G LTE and they are working out what they are able to do for me.
FYI I just called and they said they would send me an EVO3d as a replacement.
Got mine a few weeks ago and this is the best damn phone I've ever owned! Had the og evo and 3d and they just don't compare to this at all! I love it. Btw u can just say u lost it rather than dropping it in the toilet lol!

How often is often? Everyday, every week?

New to DNA hi!

Hello everyone I'm coming from HTC one S. I still have the phone but I joined up with Verizon left T-Mobile. Couldn't stand the bad to no reception I had at my job. I was pretty hesitant to get this phone because I know it's been about for about 6 months and there's probably another phone around the corner but I really couldn't wait with the bad service so here I am. I really like the phone so far haven't rooted yet and planned to wait awhile but there's no button remap on stock heard it was removed do guess I'll be rooting soon!

Well I did the update the official update that came with the phone. And I wonder why do we have 2 dev forums ?
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
If you took the ota you'll not be able to root it for the time being.
And as far as the 2 dev forums.

Hope i didnt mess up.

Well finally bit the bullet and bought a Note 2. The Note 1 was starting to show its age and I'm not into rooting and all that. But I put my Note 1 on Craigslist for $225 and it was sold within the hour with numerous inquiries from others. Question did I put it too cheap or did I just get lucky?
Bought mine for $250. Dented and scratched a bit, but you might have been able to get $300 for it if it was in good shape.

Yeah thats was thinking. I I almost changed the ad when I saw how popular the listing was but the guy was already on the way and I didn't want to be messed up. I had bought the phone this December of last year for about $250 anyway.

That's not bad. Pretty much balanced. At least you weren't waiting weeks to sell it.

Dropped phone at work, broke glass. Possibly more. I have the $10 a month at best buy. Do i need to go back to stock? Im going to guess there is a way, i just need to search. Bad luck day, thats not all that has gone wrong. Thought about really crushing it, lol. Get a new one.
