Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

I was busy napping. :p
Up and getting dinner ready and household chores done. Folks are freaking out about how cold it's going to get tonight. Below freezing, but nothing too abnormal.
 
I am so bored. I usually am reading a book while working, on my trusty Note 3. Or texting. Or surfing.

I am more productive today, but less happy overall.
 
Well, I went picked up 2 LG G2's - one for the wife and I.

I did the device payment plan thing. That was an interesting trip to Big Red. I was in the store for nearly 2 and a half hours. Nearly took 40 minutes just to get someone to come talk to me.

Then by the time they get everything done, they ended up charging me an extra $100. Another half hour later, and only a half hour from missing my sons doctors appointment, they finally said we'll take a look and if we made a mistake we'll call you and put the money back on your card.

They called nearly 4 hours later to say, yup we shouldn't have done that. Ya Think???

So they are going to put the $100 as a credit on my account.

I swear, if I knew more people around me that used T-Mobile, and if I knew they had great coverage around here, it would be worth moving just to get another nexus. But I need coverage.

Now I am off to find out how to root these beasts.

Congrats on the G2s. I had a hard time at the store too because they tried to tell me I would lose unlimited. Rooting and flashing recovery is fairly easy. Although I should say I had a bit of trouble with root because I forgot one detail.
 
Happy Wednesday, folks!

It IS Wednesday, isn't it? I have to look at a calendar anymore...

All the BF flyers are being leaked and I'm getting my Black Friday strategy list together. I tell ya, nothing brings out the best and worst in humanity like Black Friday at Walmart! Like Bonnaroo, you gotta experience it AT LEAST ONCE:D

Hope it warms up soon... it's 21 here :eek:

Have a great day!
 
Oh, I'm Matt too!

Rooting the G2 is relatively easy provided you have all your drives setup correctly. Let me know if you need any help with it.

Good morning everyone.

Finally went back to the gym yesterday and my triceps are absolutely killing me. I had a hard time brushing my teeth this morning, yowza.
 
Stigy

How much are you paying and what kind of plans are they offering.

I'm done with big red too, now that we're coming up on 2 years with Gnez...

Yep! Plus I'm saving about $50 a month.

I was thinking about it a few weeks back, but was skeptical of the signal strength. Well my friend just made the jump to T-Mobile from AT&T, and we took a drive yesterday to my house, my job, and generally all of the places we go around town. 4 to 5 bars of LTE constantly. We ran speed tests on my Verizon handset and his, and his just blew mine away.

I called Verizon to see if they'd match or throw in some perks, and of course they wouldn't budge.

I was actually hoping they wouldn't budge. Now I get unlockable bootloaders, the option to upgrade twice a year if I want, and don't have to wait 6 months for Verizon to get what everyone else already has.

Not to mention the Nexus line, if I so choose.

Ah! It's like I'm waking up from a horrible nightmare!!
