We were getting it from US at around jus under 22k incl taxes (which made the whole request someone and then go over to collect etc effort a waste). Quote:

Thanks for members here, I picked-up the Xperia U for 13000 (from Indraprast Grey market)and exchanged the 2 yr old Moto Quench for 3k, so a net purchase of 10 for a Dual Core phone is a good deal. ![]() @Bluevolt: HTC One V seems to have issues with Battery and screen. I was keen on picking that up instead of the Xperia. I have read about it in user comments online and dealer in Mumbai. For battery issues, HTC replaced Battery and circuit board for several users. Just get some more thoughts/reviews from users. Last edited by Zenster : 20th August 2012 at 15:02. | |

In such a case, it is rather better to buy from a trusted grey market seller (yeah, sounds oxymoron) e.g. Alfa in Mumbai. I too got the Nexus for 21.8k from Play Store *unfortunately when the exchange rate was against me. Another friend bought it a few days after me and got it for around 21k. This is when Alfa prices were hovering around 25-26k. Now that has also come down to 23-24k. Quote:
On another front - Motorola has finally released it's Bootlock Unloader website. Currently only Photon 4G and Xoom are supported but expect to have other devices coming in soon. Last edited by nishantgandhi : 20th August 2012 at 16:15. | ||

Now comes the hard part, dunno for some reason the seller has mentioned the phone is not up-gradable to JB on their ebay page. Dunno why is that. I know that there are 3 different builds for the G-Nexus i.e. yakju , takju (both get official updates from google) & non-yakju (Samsung pushes the update after delay) Can G-Nexus users shed more info on this?

I thought that if You are officially unlocking the bootloader it would not affect warranty. I am not 100% certain on this. AFAIK; the moment you root; warranty is out of the window. |

I just checked that website. There is a clear disclaimer they will void the warranty if you proceed. And as for rooting, you can unroot na? But I'm not sure if you can re-lock the bootloader? |

What i would recon is you read through the links i PMed you a couple of times and go for the rooting / 2ndint / CM9 or 10 flashing etc all when you free over a weekend. Once you done with it for the first time, updating and changing trying different builts will be a ball game for you. It took me good 2 months since i bought the defy+ and endless pm's and posts to vw2010, SUN, Bhpmaniac,phamiilyman etc before i took the plunge ![]() | |
