As all others said don't buy it because the people using this device are all frustrated to own this device and many of them have already shifted to new device within short time...
Reason- This device has got one of the best Open Source Processor [Sarcastic ]
And in this price range or even little bit more price you can get 10 times better device..
So don't waste your money on this device..

Hi to all,
Seems there is no need for SIM unlocking the Vario....
I operate it with an Alice Card, which means working in E+ - no Probs at all!
Best Regards!

Varioprices in Germany
Just to say it:
Prices for electronic devices are much morre expensive in Europe - even without the temporary high $/€ exchangerates...
f.e.: the Vario IV without contract of T-Mobile costs almost 800€ - in the states you´ll get it for this price in US$.
So......

Hi all,
I am from India and I am planning to buy a Samsung galaxy s2 model from Pune, India.
I have recently read on internet that in India, the Samsung galaxy s2 model available is the i9100G instead of i9100 [ which is the original and better one]. So I am confused, what to do? Should I go with the G variant or not?
What I have heard is that the G variant is not much supported and comparatively less in performance than the i9100 model. I may be wrong and that's why I am here asking for your help.
Please let me know what to do? Plus, if anyone on this forum is from Pune and knows where I can get the SGS2 i9100 model, please let me know.
Thanks in advance for your answers...
Well I think the i9100G comes with NFC unlike the i9100.
But if you're more interested in software flashing or development you're better with i9100 since it has more support.

Where the heck do you get your info?
In another thread, you said LPQ was a later build than LP7. (which is not right)
As far as I know, I9100G does NOT have NFC out of the box. I9100G is similar to the I9100, but has different SoC/chipset. (I9100G has OMAP4430 CPU, and PowerVR SGX 540 GPU.... whereas I9100 has Exynos CPU, with Mali GPU. This is why firmwares are not compatible between the two)
I9100P has NFC added out of the box, but is otherwise the same as the I9100 in terms of CPU/GPU.

No its the P that has NFC. The G has a different GPU and chipset to the regular 9100, making all the standard i9100 roms incompatible.
Buy the IG9100... Will have better support and you can find more help here for any issues encountered..
Thanks a lot guys for your replies. Even I want to buy the i9100 model, but seems that in India that model is not available. And the pathetic things is that Samsung is selling i9100G models in the i9100 box. This case has happened with 2 of my friends and even there is no replacement guarantee at the moment for them.
Here is a website for that reference which shows the i9100 box and i9100G model inside: knowmydroid.com/blog/samsung-galaxy-s2-i9100-vs-i9100g-difference
I really need to check the piece thoroughly before buying it. Anyone know any store or place in Pune where I can buy the original version i9100 ?
Thanks in advance
Mate i m from india too
Don't listen to the fools who say i9100G is better
its total money waste(some games not working,camera problems,no ice cream sandwich,no development,not sgs2 really just a phone looking like sgs2 and i9100G is weaker)
Buy a second hand i9100 or new Galaxy Note(only 1k difference on ebay.in)
Thanks for the reply man. So is it like a brand new model of Samsung galaxy s2 i9100 is NOT AVAILABLE in India at the moment? Even in official Samsung stores?
That would be really bad if that's the case...

Yes and believe me note is much better than i9100G
as its having same processor,etc as i9100
Big problem with G is very little development for it compared to i9100 .
I would try and source an i9100 .

I think the reason for this is that G is sold in India only or few parts of the world while the international versions are already in around 20-M units...

Exactly! And that's the reason why the people in India are finding it much more difficult to buy the original version of S2 which is i9100.
The shop/mall owners in India are saying that the Samsung has stopped the production of i9100 piece and that's the reason why we are selling i9100G nowadays.
Is it the truth that Samsung has stopped production of i9100 model? Or is it only for Indian market and in the rest of the places there are still new i9100 models available?
dude buy a i9100 model, you can find more support and devs here on xda.

wtf?? jajaja indians do anything to sell
no samsung didnt stoped production, its just that samsung india is allowed or whatever reason is selling 9100G officially.
you have to buy used or one that is imported. im sure one of the stores must have newimported international i9100. you might not get the warrenty though.
Yeah, I am planning for that only. One more thing is that I visited a local mobile store yesterday. And amazingly, they have the i9100 model available, at least the box says so and I have seen the product code as well and it ends with AINU instead of GINU [for i9100G model].
But the thing I found a bit weird is that the manufacturer was said to be from China? That's new for me. I have heard that SGS2 has been manufactured majorly in Korea or Vietnam, but not sure about china? Is is fine to buy the Galaxy S2 manufactured in china?
Please advice...!!!

Yeah buddy. At least the box says that it's i9100 manufactured and imported by China. The manufactured date is also of August 2011. So may be there is a possibility that this one is from the old stock and not the new production. But that shouldn't be any problem, Isn't it?
Any idea, which Android version I will be getting if its manufactured and imported in August 2011? Just curios...

But is it fine to install the ICS right away after buying it? Or should I spend some time playing with the device as I am not pretty much used to android devices as such.
What would you suggest? Should I go for the ICS update right away? Or I should wait for sometime and then get to it slowly and steadily?
19100 even comes with black ink .

Hello guys, I'm planning to buy a US carrier locked Samsung Galaxy SIII from US (New Jersey)
Locked phones comes with 2years of contract in carriers like AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, etc.
As these phones cost cheaper than unlocked phone,

You would have to check your carrier's frequencies. But I believe the US version has all the same 2g/3g frequencies as the international has(plus LTE)

Check with the carrier you intend to use .
Dont buy a locked phone .
You should also understand that a USA phone has no Samsung warranty outside of the USA .

I don't want warranty.. as soon as I get the phone, I'll root it..
You cannot actually get the phone for the low price, as you will also have to factor in the price of the contract that you will have to get to along with the phone. If you plan buying just the phone from the carriers, it might be cheaper to buy em in India itself. Besides, the international I9300 is better than the NA variants in my opinion..

Hi all,
I have a samsung galaxy ace-i, which i've been using for quite a while now.
Its unlocked to any network, and has got a custom rom on it. There are no scratches.
I've looked online, to see how much others are selling it, but there are no people selling the ace-i (only the ace, ace II, and Ace III).
How much would you say I can sell the phone for? Got the original box, but not the charger and headphones?
Thanks

yes, better to keep it as a backup phone instead of selling it for nothing.
or maybe you can give it to family or friend

My sister bought me a Samsung Galaxy S9+ for my birthday but because she lives in America and I live in the UK I'm having issues with certain apps, especially Samsung Pay which won't allow me to use it as it only recognises me as being in America due to the Firmware restrictions, I can sign in fine, my account is registered in the UK but as I said, it's the Firmware restrictions so I can't use it at all.
I'm hoping someone knows if it's possible for me to replace the USA Firmware with a UK Firmware version? It's caused a lot of havoc in many different ways for me but I cherish the phone since it was a birthday present from the sweetest sister ever! ?? ♥
Congratulations on your new phone from your sister! Unfortunately if the model# is G965U or G965U1, you will be limited to US firmwares. The global model has a different processor and the firmwares are incompatible.

Thanks, I had a feeling it would be bad news but that's worse because it actually is an SM-G965U1 ?
She also sent me another phone, it's a BLU ENERGY XL, the OS is terrible on it, I don't suppose you have any recommendations for a firmware I can install via the SD Card on that do you? ??
Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it ??

You're welcome, but sorry for that news. I can't think of any other options for Samsung Pay either, since the US model doesn't currently have a root method. As for the BLU ENERGY, I don't know anything about it so the best I can recommend is look it up in the forums here on XDA, or maybe another similar site? Good luck!
