So let's say a new phone costs $648 total retail. On the Tmobile Jump plan, you would pay $27/month for 24 months to pay it off completely ($648). If you choose to stop after 12 months, you will have paid a total of $324... which is half the retail price. However, you will also have paid $120...

So let's say a phone retails for $750... I buy it with monthly payments of $30/month for 12 months which totals $360. When I trade it back into T-Mobile, I'm assuming they'll offer me $300 or so... bringing the total to $660... And then I will be responsible for paying that $90 difference to...

I'm trying to understand what the catch is... I've never done a monthly payment system before. So, I pay like $30/month for a new phone... and let's say I want a newer phone in a year. Do I just trade this phone in and continue making the $30/month payment on the new phone? Rinse and repeat...

Haven't read any of this thread but I came from a GS4 and a Note 3 (got water damage) and freaking love the Nexus 5. It is easily the BEST bang for your buck all things considered. The battery is not AS good but I definitely don't think it's bad. It gets me through my day with plenty to...

If I'm rooted and use an app like Wireless Tether, will T-Mobile notice my tethering then?

If I have unlimited data on my T-Mobile plan, couldn't I just use the Nexus 5 as a hot spot for my home internet? I get 30mbps download speeds in my house, which is faster than what I'm currently paying for with Time Warner. Are there any cons in doing this? Edit: I see that T-Mobile charges...

I sold a water damaged Note 3 where the screen remained black. The phone turned on, but the LCD screen was obviously damaged and just stayed black. Obviously, the buyer will restore the phone... I had a Patterned unlock screen (have to draw the pattern in order to unlock). Will he be able to...

I freakin love Craigslist haha Haggled over e-mail and phone and get the deal finalized BEFORE you meet in person. And when you meet in person, ALWAYS pick a public place. If it's cell phones, obviously always do the carrier. If they're reluctant to meet you at the carrier, you know something's...

Just got my champagne gold Neo Hybrid today and love it. Great protection and keeps the phone slim and sleek at the same time.

I've been used to Nova Prime for years basically ever since I've had Android. I love that I can have a dock that scrolls. I love being bale to re-size EVERYTHING. I love being able to create gestures like double tap brings up the camera, etc... Am I missing anything with the default Nexus 5...

Ha yeah I thought so at first. He gave me the IMEI and told me he'd meet me at a T-Mobile store of my choice where the store rep made sure everything was clear. Turns out he just really needed the cash and was listing it at $280-$300 but kept getting offers at $250 or lower and was ready to just...

Yeah I can't believe how good a deal it was. The guy was very nice and said he even rooted it. Sounded like he sold cell phones for a living (he was extremely knowledgeable and we started talking about this forum and XDA haha) $250 for mint condition Nexus 5 with a case and original box is a...

Thanks! I'm gonna pass on the $225 offer... and hold out for $250 or more. Maybe someone will jump on it this weekend. The wallet flip cover case and extra battery should help!

Well the offer is $225 on eBay... here's my ad. I listed it at $280. So after fees, it's probably realistically around $200. (edited by Moderator) [/url]

This is very annoying. Light Flow works... but then the LED just stays blinking even after I read my text message. Any idea how to get it to automatically turn off once I actually read the message?
