Guys my brother has decided to buy new mobile ....
Budget is of Maximum : 13500 INR or 265 USD
Its should have its own forum on XDA.. .thats a must .... otherwise phone wud be a waste...
Official Cm wud be nice
The one i have come up with is Sony Ericsson Live With Walkman ( WT19i)
Also Motorola Defy is good .... But have no service center around my area.
Please Suggest Some other Models ....
LOL who needs a service center when a Defy user is right here ?
Defy-ing all limits.
Ya for all software related Issues XDA devs are there ... i was toking about hardware issue ... u know ... and i had a ques about defy ...... like there is LIFESAVER ODIN for samsung mobiles .... is there any such thing for motorola phones also to flash the stock rom ??
and also about other mobiles like of lg , sony ericsson ?? they also have some procedures to flash stock rite ?? or only samsung products enjoy that ??
Odin for Motorola = RSD Lite
Firmware files = .sbf , but once you flash a higher CG version there is no way to downgrade , unlike Samsung firmwares
Defy-ing all limits.
Go for Sony's phones. Seems like they're the only ones who wants to update there phones.

Yeah i saw that ...they are upgrading almost all 2011 models.... FXP Dev team seems awesome .... and its likely that Sony LWW will receive CM9 official ....only problem is it is about 20 $ more than my max range

Which ideos??? X5 u mean to say??
For me the only actual upgrade from my current Optimus One that I would consider would be to a Samsung Galaxy S1 (I also don't have budget for S2 now). Until then I'll stay happily with my O1 with CM7 and FK.
IF you have time to spare, you can wait for the LG Optimus Sol.
If not, you can try the SE Xperia Neo, but this might be outside your budget, as (iirc) it is about the same price as SGS1.

that's good news...it means that samsung is considering ACE a strong card...that also means that is doing well sales wise... that means that as long as ACE is a good player in mobile business then developers will continue messing with the phone... that means official cyanogen and maybe one day ICS on our ACE!!!!
in the UK the ace is quite popular and they have sold quite a bit especially on three. Its Samsungs highest selling mid range device

I've had mine since Sept. I cannot understand why they are so popular. Low ram, low Res screen, low onboard memory. It will struggle badly for firmware updates and 95% won't get official CM9 or ICS. I bought a ZTE Crescent today. Much cheaper at £99 and already find it much better. ICS being worked on and phone has only been out here two weeks.

To be honest i love my Ace, with stock ROM it can be a bit boring but that's why u gotta love Android the possibilities are endless. I wont compare my device to any other and when i buy my Nexus, the ACE will still be my everyday phone, mainly for its size.
say Galaxy Y in pink, I want my SGA in red.
Btw, check Galaxy Ace Hugo

Have you seen the screen of Wildfire S? It feels like ants having a picnic, you can't see anything clearly.
And Sense is 100x bloatware, it is not in any way faster than SGA, our stock bloaty firmware is much lighter than HTC Sense
And not to mention the battery on that phone is much lower than SGA

uhm, yeah, Samsung is open to external development, and sent 5 galaxy S phones to Cyanogen to make the mods for the phone, it is just their focus is their high-end products but I dont have anything to say about their support on boght phones.
Who dafuq is president of samsung? Why can't he be more open minded sheesh. And anyway, I think coolya did not want to do it since he said it would really be a pain porting it especially camera, like maclaw's team right now
If I remember correctly, then it was Samsung who sent new Galaxy S models to the developers of CM in order to speed up the process of releasing CM to it. And it was Samsung who hired the head developer of CM. Plus when you compare it to HTC for example, then modding and flashing custom ROMs on a Sammy is much much easier.

I've rooted lots of different phones and i've got say that samsungs are the easiest and ODIN is a very nice tool in case something goes wrong. The worst phones for rooting seem to be huawei's. I spent 5 hours on trying to root a u8800 and failed (2.2 was easy but 2.3.5 latest was impossible to me, tried all the root tools and even manually but zergrush would not apply). Rooting a samsung takes what... 5 minutes if you're lazy (gingerbread). Even motorola xoom takes 10 minutes from stock HC to fully functional custom ICS.

Off-topic: If it was so easy for you, then you might as well point me to a decent rooting guide for the SGA S5830, because I've tried a couple of rooting guides and none of them worked for me.

Hi all...
To the end of April I have to change my really amazing optimus one for any phone that I want... when I buy my optimus I pay 260 USD approximately... so now I can change my phone for any that be in this price range... the options in my country was:
- Moto Defy (a8-cortex, gorilla glass, 5mp + led flash camera, ics stable in his thread) 280 USD
- Galaxy Ace (same processor that p500, same camera that defy, ics not so stable in a low activity thread ) 240 USD
-Others that I dont remember..
The other option is pay +120 USD for a galaxy s...
Any suggestions?

yeah its a bit above price range but it will be as you say supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. It has a bravia display, design is better, front cam, hdmi support and its too much for a bit more money i think. Defy is by Motorola, you'll even have to check for red and green lens problems. Better buy a neo v
u will be bit disappointed with screen contrast and music quality on defy though....
