:good::good: did Flesky keyboard come on yours?

Nope, it's got 3 keyboards. Standard qwerty, "Gear" qwerty that does some predictive typing, and numeric.

OK the other poster said it's not there as well I forgot which one he had AT&T I think but he said he emailed Fleksy and he ll see what excuse they give him

Good times... I'd like to have a smarter keyboard

Whats the monthly cost of this? That is the only thing keeping me from buying it. I really don't think it is worth having to shell out $10 a month.
I found this on Verizon's site....
Connected Device Line Access on More Everything Plans: $5

The $5 is at least palatable. I don't have a More Everything Plan though. I am still on a grandfathered unlimited plan, so they might push me to move to a new plan if I paid full price for it. I think I am going to hold off and see how the reviews look and if I can get it for $5 a month on my existing plan if I pay full price.

Sounds like a plan if you pay full price you should be able to get the 5$ plan I believe they try to push you off the Unlimited if you sign the contract paying full price you can always cancel the plan later. But your grandfathered in so they should make you a good deal

+1. I ordered mine this morning. Should be here tomorrow before noon. Reading the manual now to kill some time. So stoked!
Unique - What's the word? Are you holding out until Sunday or did you order your watch already?

:fingers-crossed: thanks

I have a Gear 2 as well right now so I am not in any rush.
I will pay attention to the reviews. If they are favorable AND I can retain my plan and get it for $5 a month, then I will probably pull the trigger eventually.
If anyone here has an unlimited data plan and isn't on the "more everything" plan, and gets the Gear S, let me know if you still can get this for $5 a month as an addon. I haven't heard anyone try to add one of these devices on an unlimited plan. Will they try to change your plan? So many questions, and these will be answered in time.

I just ordered one. I have to Jones it till Monday! I should have ordered one 1st thing this AM but I called around to Brick and Mortars and then I got busy. I would have liked to play with it over the weekend...I guess I waited 46 years for it so far...3 days more won't kill me....

5$ for the plan do you have to make payments on the watch? or just buy it outright in your case

Just to follow up...
I ordered from Verizon online...Free overnight shipping...So I'll get it Monday (today is a Friday). I called a Verizon store they only had one and BestBuy stores in the area did know what I was talking about.
I purchased it full price $399 and it added $5 per month to my Everything plan. I figured for 50 bucks I'd rather not be tied to a contract. On contract was $349..

Buying off contract prices (lowest is $469)

I'm planning on getting the EVO 3D off contract but so far I only see Radio Shack quoting it at $499. Has anyone heard of other retailer pricing? Does Amazon sell phones off contract? If $499 is the lowest and Amazon sells off contract then no tax or shipping cost would be better than RS or BB.
I realize the release date is still ad few weeks away but maybe we can use this thread to update competitor pricing for those looking for off contact purchases.
Radio Shack: HTC EVO 3D - $499
Amazon.com: HTC EVO 3D - $469 (no tax, free shipping)
bam! 4th thread asking the same question...... congratulations!!!!!!!!
short answer...... its all speculation. Leaked ad showed it selling at $499 off contract but nothing official was released.
oh that $499 price was Radio Shack. Sprint and Best Buy may have a different price assuming that $499 was accurate.
ok let this thread die until stores officially release pricing
My intention is to keep this thread dedicated to places selling off contract so people don't have to wade through the contract discussion. I would also update the OP to include the list people suggest. I agree there are too many identical threads but this would attempt to direct off contract customers here.
Brick and mortar, online, wholesalers, etc. Preferably avoiding shady places.
until there are official off contract pricing this thread is useless and would just be cluttered up with guesses providing no real info. Let the other threads collect that junk that have been collecting other people's junk.
When there is official pricing then a thread like this would be useful
I am buying off contract as well. I will keep an eye out on this thread but my guess is that Sprint will have the lowest price,BB will have the highest, & not sure about the others.
I just for an email about the Evo 3D from Sprint this morning.
It said $199 on contract with $200 instant savings, and that's it. It'd be hard to believe that it would only be $400, but that's kinda how it looked to me. I'll upload a screen shot in a minute.
Isn't this thing supposed to be an e-reader, weird.

thats how it looks at first glance but read it carefully. $200 instant savings. That may not mean $200 2 year contract instant savings. Or it could.
I just have a hard time believing that the new flagship phone will be cheaper retail than 5 other phones they carry all which have a $300-$350 difference between contract and non contract price
The fine print was posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112504&page=3
I'm also buying off contract.
If it's $199.00 after $200.00 in instant savings then I'm guessing that's also after the full $150.00 contract renewal discount.
I'm predicting it will be $549.00 from Sprint and either the same or $599 from BestBuy.
I already posted what the price is in another thread
199.00 upgrade price
200.00 instant savings
150.00 the upgrade savings

Better off getting a new contract for $200, switching numbers, and canceling the old line for another 200.

Extremely easy. Just call from a phone other than the two you want to swap. They ask you to turn them off and they ask for some number behind the battery.

I'm hoping for some type of release of a off contract price. Seems kind of odd they haven't released it yet. Kind of pisses me off frankly.
so further thinking, instead of paying $549 for the off contract price, i could buy a new phone, switch the numbers, and pay at most $200 fee. So far $400. Then ebay my old evo for circa $200,and that leaves me with a net off contract price of around 200 bucks for a evo 3d, not bad....
somehow i think sprint has thought of this already and has ways to prevent it.
good luck though

well i know i can add another line, sprint will love that
then i know i can cancel my old line, all they can do is charge me the ETF fee, which is only $100 now since im 1 year in. so i'll pay $300 for phone and fees. then sell for 200 ebay leaves me with paying only $100 for a evo 3d and off contract at that.
the only hurdle to leap is sprint easily allowing me to switch my old number to the new evo 3d

Like what? Stop you from adding a new line? Not allowing you to cancel one of your lines? I tried to talk to a rep about upgrading my discount but was unable to do so.

Radioshack to have Galaxy S II for $50 on Black Friday

http://www.androidguys.com/2011/11/...riday-ad-features-50-samsung-galaxy-s-ii-att/
I've seen the actual ad, too. Looks like you'll be able to buy it online starting Thursday according to the ad. It says their black friday deals start on Thursday online. I plan on joining the Galaxy S II crowd then!
I just read that Sams Club will have this phone for only $.96 on black Friday. If you not a member and want the phone, I would get a membership. Sams club is pretty nice.

I might have to check that out been a member for years and never stopped by the wireless section.
I would if I was already a member, but I never go there and never will, so I'll just go with the RadioShack deal.
Would Best buy price match if I bought online?
Edit: BB said they will PM once the sale hits the B&M stores.
This sucks, is this 100% accurate?? I just purchased my GS2 from Best Buy for 149
this is 100% accurate
As an FYI, the Sam's deal may not be out of your reach if you are not a member. Note in the ad the fine print states that it will be available online. They use the same outsourced cell phone seller that many other companies such as best buy RZ use. In other words, it is unlikely they will verify your membership.
Sent my i777 back a week ago and was about to buying an ip4s until I saw these deals. Definitely going back to the i777 for good. Can't wait.

So get it price matched. I got mine at at&t for $199.99...i asked for them to match target @ $99.99..and they did. My 30 days ends early December and after finding out these deals today, i called my at&t store and the just told me that they'll match the radio shack $49.99 and if its true with Sams Club $0.96 deal..they'll even match that.

I got in on Target's $99 deal last week. I also thought about the .96 deal from Sam's Club and wondered if it would be worth the Black Friday hassle to get it. I don't wanna waste 2hours of BF shopping to get the cheaper phone. Unfortunately, Target mobile says that they will not price match any lower prices, even it it happens the day after I buy it.

As of right now i have the i777 from at&t @ 99.99. I asked them to credit me back $100 because target offered it for 99.99 and they did. I spoke with at&t again after finding out the new price drops with radio shack and Sams Club. The manager told me to come back on black friday and he'll credit me back the rest. So hopefully my final outcome will be Upgraded w/ at&t @ 199.99 (done) > credited back 100 (done)> credit back to either radio shack or sams club price.

Unfortunately, I don't think this will work for the phone (per BB website):
What are Perfect Match Promise products?
Products that are defined as Perfect Match Promise products include TVs $899 and up purchased on or after August 7, 2011, and appliances $429 and up purchased on or after August 21, 2011.
Also: The Guarantee does not apply to: Our competitors' website prices, offers that include financing, bundling of items, free items, pricing errors, mail-in offers, competitors' service prices, items that are advertised as limited-quantity, out of stock, open-box, clearance, refurbished/used items, BestBuy.com Midnight Sale and special hour sale events, BestBuy.com Outlet Center and Marketplace items, and items for sale Thanksgiving Day through the Monday after Thanksgiving.
Let us know if you get BB to honor the 60 day price match though.
Do they force plan changes though? A lot of the places I have tried to buy phones from before were trying to force me to double my plans minutes (have an older 800 minute family plan). Well even though there are 5 people on the plan we have a bazillion roll over minutes and need no more minutes. The sole reason I went ahead and bought my phone through amazon is because they didn't touch my plan other than making me add data to the line.
Talked to the phone guy at my Sam's club and he confirmed the $0.97 SGSII . He said they had 38 of them. I'm going to get one but I really hope it's not a huge hassle.

What would you pay for an Evo 4G LTE?

Just going through some ebay listings of the phone.
Looking at those that have closed in the last 2 weeks, I see prices from upper 400's to mid 700's.
This listing here really takes the cake though.
$740!!! At least the buyer got free shipping. I thought $200 alot to pay, but [email protected]!#, $740!!!

*Raises Hand*
Well I was the Winner of that $740 dollar Evo and I find it to be worth every penny lol. I was off contract with an amazon preorder and canceled it in desperation when we had no date. Believe it or not I actually got it faster and cheaper than off contract at BestBuy which would have come ~$760. My OG Evo crapped out and I was completely phone-less so time was of the essence and I was shooting in the dark.
Tl;DR You know exactly how much I was willing to pay . Winning bidder: Crowordove
Also I think it's the funniest thing ever to be called out for my Evo desperation especially since I'm on XDA and got to be a part of it lol.
Is it really that worthwhile to remain off contract? You're still paying monthly service charges equal to what someone on-contract is paying. Your only benefit is the ability to cancel service at any time. Now if they gave you a year's worth of free service for paying the whole lot up front, that might be worth it.
Thanks for chiming in.
Edit: Not calling you out personally, just trying to get a grasp on how folks justify such purchases. I've heard of people paying exorbitant amounts on other devices - iphones, ipads, etc.

Actually I'm in my 2 year contract coming up on year one here shortly. I'm paying off contract for a phone to use on my current contract. I was an Og Evo buyer a little over a month before the Evo 3d and decided to wait it out and chalk it up to bad luck. So this time I jumped for the new phone instead of a referbed Evo that I would have had to buy out of pocket anyway. The best part about it is I get an upgrade next year if I choose to use it
I think knowing that you can up and leave without penalty is a certain sense of security, in which I also enjoy being locked into a contract. i've been eligible to upgrade both phone lines for over 4 years, and just never had because i never found a phone I liked enough. My main phone was a Sanyo MM9000 (I have lots of them collected) due to it's ability to make calls in other countries without being charged and the data usage not being able to be monitored, etc. I was tethering on that phone for years with no fees, lol. My 2nd line was a Touch Pro which was basically the perfect phone, just too slow. Had they put this proc in it, it would be great!
Anyways, I upgraded both lines at the same time with pre-orders, one came in, they f'd up my order and only had 1 phone ready because they thought it was supposed to be one, then my other came later. The 2nd I already had buyers lined up wanting to pay $650+, but due to the idiots at BB's error, by the time I got my 2nd phone, they were released so now I just have my 2nd phone sitting on craigslist for $500.00 until it sells. And my 2nd line is back on the Touch Pro it was on previously.
First EVO = $200 - $50 pre-order GC with BB - $75 in gift certificates I had, so I paid $75.00 for my HTC EVO 4G LTE
Second EVO = $200 - $50 pre-order GC with BB on my 2nd line. I paid $150 for that one, but once it sells for $500, I will have basically been paid to get one.
This is definitely the best phone out right now. I'm still amazed at how much you can do with it, and I have been experimenting with WEP cracking, lol. Going to see if I can get the right adapters to use my external WiFi antenna with it, then load up BackTrak3 on it. ;-p

I love forum picture fights.
Seriously though it was cost effective for me and I don't expect anyone else to agree with me. My Evo LTE has been and will continue to be worth every penny to me.

Got the G Watch at AT&T for $160

Love it so far. They classify it as an accessory so many FAN discounts give you 30% off accessories. Walked in the store and it rang up at $160. Walked out with it in 5 minutes. Hope they do the same thing for the Moto 360.

Cool. Hope you like it. Loving mine so far.
Shh don't attract attention to it - normally the "Appcessory" category is exempt from discounts. I bought mine with my employee discount for $114.50. I'm hoping that if AT&T does carry the 360 they will still allow it to be discounted.
Got mine for 50% off when I bought my G3. Love it.

If I just walk into AT&T and buy one without buying a phone (I'm a Verizon phone customer), what is the return policy? Could I try it out and return it used after a couple weeks if I just don't like it? Would they make it a pain in the ass?

I'm really hoping they'll allow us to discount the Moto 360 as well. Discounted my G with employee discount and also got the half off promo with the G3.

There's normally the restocking fee of 10%, however the other day we had one come back and it didn't have a restocking fee.

But to buy the G watch at this price you'd have to buy a phone too, correct?

A "FAN discount" is a corporate discount associated with your place of employment (in my case).
I went into AT&T store near my work just now and they called it a "serialized" item and couldn't do the discount. I also mentioned I wasn't an AT&T customer (I'm on Ting) and they said you have to be a subscriber to even get the PAN discount.
Can anyone confirm any of that? (Or anyone work at AT&T?)

To get a FAN discount you must be an AT&T subscriber. For any of these discounts it's probably best to just order online as store associates tend to think it's some sort of error. I'm sure AT&T would have closed these loopholes because it's been around since the Gear watches. I just order the G watch with two clearance accessories and I got 25% off my order.

It's dependent on the FAN. Each agreement is different. Some offer equipment discount or accessory discounts, some dont. I would suggest buying the watch and two $5 clearance accessories. Get it all for about $190 out the door.

I upgraded from my G2 to the G3 and traded in the G2. They upped the trade in value since I was using the money toward an accessory. So between that, my FAN discount and the 50% off from getting the G3 I walked out the door with a G Watch for $9.13. No complaints there.
I bought mine on eBay. Got it for 165 with free shipping, used a week. Not a bad deal. Still had the protective stickers.
Like it?

Wonder if us on the Unlimited Family Sprint plan would qualify for the waiving of the $10/mo
I like the ATT price but I wonder if samsung will make a new version after a year. If the due I will be stuck under contract for another year. While I dont always jump and get the newest devices, I dont like the idea of being under a contract for 2 years. I may be ok and just may be over thinking it. Maybe I can just pay my way out of the contract if they do come out with a new version.

I bank on samsung releasing another, and at the outright price this thing is coming out with ($3-400, I paid $300 for the original gear and feel comfortable around this price for these watches) I'll just buy the next one outright and swap the Sim, they can't force you to keep the same watch.
wow your right. I forgot all about that.

Sprint customers can purchase the Gear S for $0 down, and 24 monthly payments of $16 ($384 total), but will also have to pay an additional $10 per month on its Family Share Pack plan. However, Sprint is waiving the monthly fee through December 2015 if you sign up for a 20GB or higher Family Share Pack plan. However, the Gear S will use Sprint's 3G network, and not its LTE network.

I believe once the S6 comes out March or so the gear S2 or whatever they call it will be released as well Samsung is working on another version already. Hopefully the new version will include a camera that can use front face camera for skype/tango ect (wishful thinking I know but a dreamer can dream)
Guys and Gals talking about AT&T... I think what you have to be interested in is adding the $10/month for 24-months...or forever, haha. Once you take that jump of paying $10 a month for a smartwatch, you'll probably never go back right?
Its just like adding a data play to a tablet. The phone will need data to be able to get calls so Im ok with that.
Hi all, the Gear S is a 3G/2G device, it does not support LTE, therefore it won't work on LTE bands.

Does anyone know if the mini opera browser will work just using bluetooth connection not with a sim card?
Verizon Customer support told me...
The unit would be available 11/7/2104.
$399 off contract
$349 with a 2 year contact
$5 dollars a month.
I don't recall what $5 a months gets you in terms of data sorry.
I think i'll grab one. I have a Note 3 and if I like the watch I'll go for a Note 4. If I don't like the watch i'll go with a Nexus 6 or less likely a Droid Turbo.
Take care,
Flip

I called a brick and mortar store. They said it was true that Verizon would have them on Friday (11/7/2014) but they did not know if their actual store would get any. They told me to call back on 11/7/2014 because they never know what inventory their are going to get until the same day.
Happy hunting!
If Verizon is 400 off contract price, I think ATT will be the same. All in all I think I may just get on contract.
I hope your source is accurate. I called several Verizon stores and tweeted the VZW news and they have not received a release date. Same song and dance at Best Buy. I considered buying a t-mobile watch but learned that the watches are carrier specific. Sux! I'll ring them again on Friday morning to see if they have them in stock. Keeping my fingers crossed!

+1 Verizon never releases on time with the other carriers AT&T & Sprint will release on Nov 7th T-mobile will release Nov 9th so my guess is Verizon will come a week later

LOL #FACTS
I suppose I need to take trip to my VZW store Friday and see. Unfortunately no money for the watch this month.
Just purchased my gear s from an Att store in Houston. Price is $299 w/o contract and $199 w/ 2 yrs contract. I chose the 2yrs contract as with my discount the line would $5/month on family share .
