hi i am about to buy a
Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0 White (8 GB) Digital Media Player model no YP-G70CW/XEG but which one is this is it international/ Europe/usa or Korean sorry for this basic question but i am a noob thanks in advance i sure this has been asked 1000 times b4 but i guess i am missing it some-ware
The G70CW is the USA model.
YP-G70CW isn't the USA model, actually the CW only means that it's 8gb. The US model is YP-G70CWY/XAA. This means that your device is surely an european one which means too that it's an internationnal.
Before you buy player I think you should wait to see what Samsung does with this series. I read that they might be upgrading them to the galaxy player 2

Hi guys,
Can you please suggest me a best android phone under 30,000/- (INR) price range.
Galaxy SII (friend got battery problem in 3months)
Sensation XE (Touch screen problems as some developers mentioned in some forums)
So, i need your reviews and more phones please...
you can get S2 as it is currently the best out there , but beware of the i9100g model which has Omap chipset and not good, Get I9100 International version with has Mali chipset.
Nexus S is also a good buy , as it already is running ICS officially from Google ,
If you can increase budget i would recommend Galaxy Nexus or Galaxy Note ....

Thank you arsalan_qamar for the reply.
Based on my friend's review on SII i want to opt another brand not Samsung.
Hi, I will buy a samsung 5.0 s wifi from USA, so I have some questions on the charger and the keyboard because I live in Morocco and I'm used to the AZERTY keyboard.
Can we change the qwerty keyboard to azerty ?(without the flash pmp) and the Whole samsung to french? (icone, etc...)
to charge the PMP, Ill find compatibility problem? (We have 220 V)
if I will change to a non official rom, I'll find the French version?
Thank you.

Normally the US rom should have Francais(France) and Francais(Canada) However if you don't find them, you can always flash a custom rom. But how did you buy a galaxy player instead of a galaxy s wifi if you live in morroco.
EDIT: Forgot that XDA is in english so it would be French(France) and French(Canada)

"But how did you buy a galaxy player instead of a galaxy s wifi if you live in morroco."
I did not buy the Samsung wifi 5.0 yet and i don't have the galaxy player.
(My cousin live in USA so i told him to buy one there.he comes this summer...)
So, by changing to French(France) the keyboard will change to azerty ?
Will i need a current transformer to charge ?

It could be a real galaxy note. I've seen roms and ruus from China without gapps. OP: post some screenshots and pictures of the phone.

99 percents is Chinese fake product!
100% true Galaxy Note
I also bought it in China in Samsung store without play.google
There is already ICS on our device, but still without play.google (ggaps)
9220 with google play
I also have the GT-I9220 and it is 100% real Samsung if you want google play on it flash via odin the FM-Note-Kernel_V2.0.tar and then ICS AlBa Full DDLPA rom. Or see my answer how to make a N7000 out of it here :

ICS 4.0.4 could be flashed via KIES, but not OTA.
The chinese guys would “recovery” the zip file of GMS package. Another kind of jailbreak
More young chinese guys would buy phones of local bands, such as Huawei, Meizu, which treat with the GMS issue in a diplomatic way ; and they would buy phones of sumsung, sony from Hongkong, Europe...

Nurrrrr......dont think you live here or have any idea about the market here...
Believe me....your % are somewhat out by 90%...
Every Chinese around me have either a iPhone on plan from China Telecom or a HTC or Samsung..
And would not be caught dead with a fake..
HTC are killing it here...love to see their figures for China sales..
Re..Android without Gapps...its the norm here for most brands..
They have stripped Google out of the picture and steering the plebs to their own markets..
And or alt markets that are popping up...

G610s is good phone. and surely give kitkat update.
but I suggest you to buy Samsung Glaxy SIII I9300 becouse of:
Much better support
Much better camera
Much better Cpu config
Easily support usb on the go
both price in ebay: $204

No. This is a chinese generic phone which 7/10 don't get updates, never get rooted and etc. I recommend you buy a name branded phone such as a Samsung, HTC, Mytouch, Google Nexus, LG, or Motorola.
To stay in the price range of $200, I recommend:
Samsung Galaxy SII
Nexus 4
Moto X
HTC One S
HTC One X
HTC Desire HD
Samsung Galaxy S III
Samsung Epic 4G Touch
Nexus 7 2
Nexus 7
Theres a long list of even more, go to your providers website or use Ebay

I'm new in Android world, and I have to buy cheapest Android phone that will be able to handle Android 4.4 or newer.
I have found that the best option is Galaxy S3 and that there's one on Aliexpress. I'm aware that it might be a clone but it will not be my primary phone. It just has to be able to handle newer Android.
Can't post a link, search for the top ordered Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300 on Aliexpress.
Has anyone tried it? Will software see it as genuin S3? Thank you!
if it's a real i9300 then you are only able to upgrade via custom rom. Official support via samsung stopped at 4.3
If You need official KK (4.4), then You must search form S3 4G/LTE (9305). Basic S3 ended with 4.3 (as maultasche said).
This must be S3? If not, try search Moto E - it's cheap and small chance to buy fake one - in S3 (generally in Samsung phones) it quite ease to buy fake/copy when your search for cheap phone.
You are right, thank you! And I will check Moto E but what about S3 Neo?
S3 Neo has 4.4.
You can check every Samsung phone here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Just type model name/code (S3 or 9301) and it will find all/latest version of firmware.
It you want a phone for calling/texting (and using in general), you should list your needs/requierements/max price and ask what to choice - XDA probably has a place for it.
If you want a phone for testing/development Android apps, you should think about Motorola/Nexus or some new models with offical long support (ie Xperia family).
I just need a >4.5" phone for general use, with at least 4.4 (to use with smart watches and bands). With as low cost as possible. Galaxy S3 Neo is my leader now.
I don't know where I You from, what models ara in your country and in what prices, so it's hard to suggest any model.
I suggest You to use some kind of price comparation site (in our country), choice your requierements and list devices. Then choice what you like (what looks nice to You) and has a good price.
Then paste list of interesting devices.
For example there are couple of cheap models named "Core" or "Grand" (from Samsung) with screen size obove 4.5 inch and new Android.
Downsides are: not so "strong" CPU/GPU (for games) and lack of light sensor - it shoudn't be a issue as You want to use smartwatch anyway.
In my opinion s3 is best choice As long as there is ANY chance to get some cm (official/ unofficial)

You can upgrade it even to marshmallow why KitKat?
As we are expecting the official cm to release tomorrow so I think that s3 is the best choice. And if you just like touchwiz s3 has 4.4.4 ports from touchwiz and you can install them. But I recommend you to install lollipop 5.1.1 rom if you buy a s3 device. You chose the best device if you want any help on how to flash these roms just reply my post.
If I helped you hit the tnx button.:good:
