Hi everyone
I fancy trying google wallet in the uk and dont fancy rooting my galaxy nexus. Whats the cheapest nfc android handset i could buy and install wallet on? 2nd hand ebay deal recommendations are good
i dont noe about the cheapest but you can try the nexus s. it comes pretty cheap nowadays
I have just bought myself the new WIFI only versoin of the Z2 tablet, i will be selling my Z1 soon, but when i bought it from ebay, the guy told me he got it from an EE store, it is the SGP321, wifi and sim, although i have never used a sim card in it.
At the time i got it for a really good pricew, probably on par with the price of a wifi only model, but with me now wanting to sell it, i am unsure if i would need to list it as locked to EE or if its unlocked?
Is there any easy way i can find out?
Thanks

Hi. I had the international version of the Z5C until it recently died on me.
I decided to buy the US version of the Z5C to replace it since it comes with warranty.
Someone on reddit told me that I could flash my Z5C to enable the fingerprint sensor.
I'm new to all this and I was hoping one of you could show me the way to achieve this, which wouldn't leave me with a 2nd brick.
Thanks!
I am not sure if that's possible but if so it would more than likely require you to install stock ROM of different country through flashtool.
I ordered e5823 through Amazon prime in States and it came with sensor working, so it doesn't necessarily mean it won't work. I believe when people say US version they mean carrier locked phones as z5c has only 2 different model numbers as far as I know with all LTE and 3g bands working on either model, refer to GSM arena model comparison for more info.
I'm thinking of picking up a Z5 Compact for my switch to AT&T. But which model should I get?
I already know that the E5823 supports cat 6 LTE while the E5803 only supports cat 4 (which I don't care about) and that both models will work in the US, but I'm more curious on the software update front. Since the E5803 is obviously an older batch, will it get updated less frequently and have less dev support than the E5823? Are mods and roms between the two models different?
I'm only asking since I can get the E5803 for $20-$30 cheaper on Amazon and is eligible for Prime shipping, while the E5823 is more expensive and doesn't have Prime shipping. I'd like to go the cheaper and faster route if possible.
The 5823 is the International version, the 5803 is the US version. The US version has the fingerprint sensor disabled. You can flash different firmware to get the fingerprint sensor working, I've read. I bought the International version. Works just fine here in South Carolina.

That's weird, the E8503 on Amazon that's cheap claims to be an international version and has no warranty. I'll investigate further. It is tempting to get the US version and enable the fingerprint sensor just for the warranty though. I want a fingerprint sensor, that's the only reason I'm going for the Z5C over something like a Z3 or any other last generation flagship.
I see the listing you're talking about. Judging from the comments and Q&A, it's not really clear which model it is. If the US warranty is important to you, you may need to make sure you can return it if it is the wrong model. From what I've read about Sony service, though (especially here in the US), you're probably gonna be frustrated if you ever need to use it.
I opted for the International version so that the fingerprint sensor would work right out of the box. I've owned several Sony and Sony-Ericcson phones and never had any problems with them. I've rooted and flashed all of them except for my Z5c because it's already very capable unmodded,, the firmware is still current, and I didn't want to lose the DRM keys.

I went for the international the day the US version came out as it was cheaper and had fingerprint scanner. Now that we know the only difference between the two is software you should just get whatever is cheapest.
Has anyone figured out if It is possible to activate NFC as the specs state there is NFC however nothing on mine.
Thanks
No NFC on Zenfone Max Pro M2
I wish to follow this thread too. I heard that there is NFC in this model in certain regions but not here in Indonesia and Malaysia. Does that mean that the phone has the NFC chip but is disabled here? Is there a way to activate it?
Why would they disable NFC for phones sold in Malaysia and Singapore? NFC payment terminals for goggle pay is found in almost every shop here. I think it's left out to cut costs?
