Nexus One ETF Lowered To $150 from $350

If you use a Nexus ONE with T-Mobile, we have some good news for you. Phandroid reports that Google are cutting the Early Termination Fee (ETF) cost from $350 to $150. So what does this mean? If you cancel a contract with T-Mobile when you signed up with the Nexus One, you are contractually obliged to pay the difference between the unsubsidized phone and the discounted one. Until now this was alleged to equate to $350. Quite a price to pay, especially if you don’t care about the phone and would happily give it up.

Google are now offering a couple of things to sweeten the deal. First, if you cancel your T-Mobile contract and also return your phone to Google, then Google will not charge you anything at all. Second, if you want to keep the device, the $350 price tag has now been dropped to $150 saving quite a few bucks too.

All of this news is related to Google and is it worth noting that T-Mobile can still smack you an ETF at the same time anyway. Oh well.

I am tired of waiting for the at&t version. It has been 5 months since this rolled out internationally. This is the only reason I hate the official carrier version of the Galaxy S3. I understand why they need to test it, but it has been 5 months and it really does not take that long. at&t has so many customers using this phone and it only makes sense to make this update a priority. The only reason I am rocking this version over the international version is because of LTE and I love it. Common at&t, update this phone please. I don’t care if I don’t use half the features just let me and your customers know that we can rely on you to hear and support us.

The gallery is set up differently now. You have the tile viewing option arrayed vertically instead of horizontally. There is also an option to scroll the pictures into the screen, sort of a 3d browsing option, the last option is a 3d rotating spiral that filters vertically. There is a “page buddy” option under display settings. I always had the easy screen mode and blocking option. Also looks like they added a software update widget that I don’t remember being there.

There is also no more swiping to the right, in message mode or phone model, to call. I actually find that rather annoying now. I used that feature a lot. Especially in text mode or log mode.
