The listing, Google G1 Phone - For Parts Only has ended.
Welcome everyone.
I'd like to read a few words during today's service to remember my good friend "G1" or as I nicknamed him "god in my pocket".
G1 was a good friend to me. We'd go on walks together, chit chatting with others over the internet, letting the world know when we were headed to the restroom by tweeting every time the urge came and went.
But alas, a short life was in the future for G1 and he no longer wanted to be with us.
Rather than bury or incinerate my good friend, I thought it best to cannibalize him for parts. You may have your own friend of similar construction and maybe my friend can help you fix your's.
What led to his demise you ask? That's a good question. One day he was here, and the next day he was not. I thought it was his battery, but a replacement battery did nothing to bring my little buddy back to the living.
You can have him, pick him a part or walk around with him as your dummy phone just in case you get mugged.
This is what I know about this phone:
-----------------------------------------------------
Battery may be dead? When powered up to the wall the lower portion (on the back) under the trackball area gets excessively hot.
Keyboard: perfect
Sliding screen: perfect (I keep a peel off screen on it)
Body: everything except the mini usb cover door is perfect, the little tiny door is scratched but functioning.
What you get with this auction:
a) the phone (and original battery)
b) the wall charger
c) the headphones
d) the box it came in
e) the manual
f) if you can get it off there, I had purchased a ukulele chord app (I know that's your selling point right)
What you don't get:
a) a mini sd card (keeping that)
b) a sim card (duh, I need that)
c) mini usb cord for computer (it's broken).
d) the rubbery sleeve.
The short of it:
