Same with me bro! Just a difference, I can buy Nexus 5, but my parents won't get it for me because of my studies. So, right now i am thinking of buying the SAME phone second hand. At least it has working hardware (my speaker and power button are dead )

S2???
Buy at least s3 ..
You can get used s3 around 12K or so .
Btw i dont think that 1 GB ram will be enough for next 3 years .
So you should better buy nexus 4 or 5 ..
I am also planning to buy a nexus 5 (used ) ...
But unfortunately no one is selling it .

I'm going to use this phone for next 4 years or more I guess! Although I have spend more than 2 years with it cuz my dad won't get me new phone. I'll try to make some money by blogging, which I feel is tough after reading about it for a week and failing once. Let's see what happens in the future.

I'm using it as primary phone. My brother has another p500 and is running by gingersnap @neko95 . I'm thinking about changing to a new phone in the future, but here in Argentina we have a lot of issues with importing technology and serious economic problems related with dollars. Just today we were able to buy some dollars to save. So I'm thinking of getting a SII or SIII mini. Or something like that. The nexux branch DOENS'T EVEN EXIST HERE!.
mine is still working i havent used it in the last one and a half year because i had an omnia w and now Im using a N4. my sister used my old O1 for a year after me.

I have jumped on the SGN LTE Wagon, she's a beauty, and so was the X2 (minus that annoying screen ghosting). I'll be at the Nexus forums, you can find me there.
But just wanted to say thanks to all Devs and modders here who helped make my X2 amazing and I leave behind a brand new..... Droid x2 3800mah EXTENDED BATTERY WITH CHARGER STILL IN PACKAGE from the review I did last year (bought 2)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,
How can I go about doing this? I'll even pay shipping, any suggestions? Raffles? Open to ideas, I want a good home for it and someone who will deserve it and won't have to wait to get it from India and wait 3 years for delivery...
Well any way of doing it would have to be random. That's how contests usually are.

Heyyy ace ppl
So finally after a year and half I'll get a new phone
My first preference is the S3 i9300
It's got a good dev support in Xda and is also the really good phone
IMHO
So I wanted to know whether
Is it a good choice? I don't mind waiting If there's a better phone coming in India recently.
I also heard about the S3 i9303 varient but hasn't released in India yet
Lumia 920 is coming but windows is not my thing
Android ftw
So please suggest
Thank you

LG is going to launch a new series of phones soon :good: . I would suggest you to wait for it as buying a new series is mostly better than to buy one now n regret for it later. jus wait for a month or so.

Emm... 16GB varient for samsumg s3 is for 28k. This is a good choice but if u can live with 8gb with no sd card and a little bad camera than s3 then go definatly for the nexus 4 for 23k. It is the most smooth android device in market right now and is more powerful than s3. Its the device that comes closest to iphone 5 snappiness. It almost run at a constant 60fps everytime. Not even a bit of lag in any game. 60 fps even in nova 3

And about the Nexus 4 no SD-Slot is a huge drawback to me coz I really need an external storage. Hav almost 14Gb of music, images nd videos on my li'l P500 Will try to convince my dad for 3 more grands..
And S3 for 28k is not a bad deal at all unless the device is in good condition..
Nd wat if he says no for more bucks den wat shuld I do dat will only mean no S3 for me. Nd guyd wat about the HTC One X it has great internal storage with some intresting tech specs, great camara with great sound

What the hell are these phone made of.. 8O
but are they reliable?? nevr heard of this brand..
nd guys U can cut out Nexus 4 from the list no SD-Slot I forgot that its a NEXUS series phone they dont hav SD-slots..
so the race is between S2, S3, One X or any other you guys would like to suggest..
the thing is I like are
Firmware MIUI (Official) coz I'll stick to it so no need for official Google updates..
Camera 8MP
Earphone sound doesn't matter coz I use PowerAmp (it ROCKS) but speaker should be decent
Display of 4.3"-4.7" Gorilla Glass for Protection (Amoled for battery )
Processor 1.2 dual core (min)
GPU Adreno-220(Min), Mali-400 (Priority)
HTC One X Rs.22,773 after applying coupon WEEKEND400: http://www.ebay.in/itm/New-HTC-One-...nes&hash=item4ac143f999&_uhb=1#ht_1959wt_1139
Emm...yes one x is better than s3.
1.better build quality in my opinion.
2.tegra 3 rocks. Tegra chips have certain exclusive features that s3 can even touch.
3.no oversaturated amoled displays.
4.more future proof then s3.
5.more durable and appealing.

Arent u contradicting urself?Or have u changed your mind?
Btw the Htc one x on ebay is the AT&T version,which has DUAL CORE S4 processor rather than Tegra 3,u'll get tegra 3 version for 28k.So if 16gb is not a problem,definately go with nexus 4.
I just dont know why the seller has not mentioned it,maybe many of them who bought from him didnt even know that.

Hey OG users, I'm currently an HTC Sensation 4G / T-Mobile user looking for a good low-cost used phone to upgrade to.
Is the Optimus G a good phone right now?
I like the idea of the OG because:
T-Mobile LTE and HSPA+ is supposedly supported
It's a sister phone with the Nexus 4 so all Google's hardware driver updates should be able to be ported
It HAS AN SD CARD SLOT
It's got all the specs I want (HD screen, Quad Core, 2GB RAM, 16GB ROM)
It has OFFICIAL CM11. (How is that? Stable? Works well? I'm running an unofficial build on my senni and it's fantastic.)
Battery is fairly easily user-replaceable for when it degrades after a while.
IT'S BETTER THAN MY INCREDIBLY LOW RAM/ROM SENSATION.
I would probably use it for 18 - 30 Months and I don't want to spend more than $200 on an upgrade so this would be perfect. (I think)
Any advice you can give me? Would you would recommend this phone?
Thanks!
The vast majority of people have failed to get tmo lte. Other than that it works like a charm.

Official cm 11 for this device runs well..but I speak only of experience running official builds on the e970 (geeb) ...currently there's a M4 build, and a RC3 if I'm not mistaken.

Official cm 11 for this device runs well..but I speak only of experience running official builds on the e970 (geeb) ...currently there's a M4 build, and a RC3 if I'm not mistaken.

Yeah that's the one I was talking about, the I found by going to Cyanogenmod.com
So it does run well? That's good to hear.
And I've never actually run official nightlies before, I've always used unofficial builds (since they're for newer versions of CM than the official versions are) that are more like weeklies and I do a full wipe about every 4th update since they say we shouldn't Dirty Flash. I can't imagine not dirty flashing on a ROM updated every night!
How do they deal with dirty flashing on nightlies? Don't residual problem arise? Or when they do, do they ask to do a full wipe before reporting it to make sure it's really there?
I'm not sure If I'd prefer to do the M builds only or Nightlies.
Thanks for your reply!

Sweet, that's my least cared about desire for the phone.
Do it man. I had the g pro for a few days. Now returning it and coming back to this. ( the one I had was beat up which ruined the experience a little bit ) this may sound weird but the 5.5 inch screen somehow didnt seem as cozy .. I may buy a better condition g pro but this really isn't bad at all
The sensation was an awful phone, got it when it released, then went back to my my touch 4g. Any phone released in 2012 is better than it, even the SGSII.

Some more than others, my sensation has been pretty fun over the last 18 months. but I think its time for a new adventure! Haha.
I just bought a phone with a "clean esn, cracked back, fuzzy camera, everything else works fine" OG for $71 on eBay, and ordered a new back for $24. If the back clears up the camera as well then I got a $95 upgrade!
If I don't like it I can always resell.
We'll see what happens in a few days when it arrives.

Yeah, I can't see myself using a phone larger than 5", MAYBE the G2, but 5.5"+ is way to big.
Though I'm probably going to upgrade my mom in a few months to the note 2 since it has a pen. We'll see.

S-pen is pretty neat stuff
I had the galaxy note i717, I rarely even used the S-pen...I pretty much stay on cm ROMs though, don't really go back to stock to often.

Depends on the person/device.
I have no interest in the Galaxy line with the burn in prone AMOLED; no interest in the HTC One 2013, do to a terrible button layout, and impossible to replace battery; no interest in phablets, too big.
If someone gifted one to me I may use it, but I'd likely sell it for another cheaper phone and pocket the difference

That would be my case as well, but my Mom's had a phone with a stylus in the past and I'm fairly certain she'd use it.

I told myself I'd never get a phablet but I ended up doing so. When I purchased the SGN i717...the size has its pros/cons...I wouldn't of gone any ****** than the 5.5 inch screen though. The Galaxy Mega is way to big, AFAIK there isn't another phone bigger right now other than the Mega...Most phones seem to be going for the 4.7-5.5 inch sizes...

The g pro 2 is gonna be 5.7 ? I'm looking forward to trying it out in att stores
The real estate is nice...the display looks great and playing games feels great with a larger screen...LGOG suits my screen size though. I'm not a huge gamer type anyhow...

I was on the fence to hold out for the note 4 also, but this g3 came in at a bargain and I can't see myself paying $299 for a phone on contact, I just wibt do it! In that case, I'd just get a nexus device for $350 off contract. Just my opinion.

same although there was a day I had a flex in between the two. Honestly though it seems like sprint sucks so much where I live in WA that If things don't improve next contract end I'm moving carriers.

You have to wait. Cuz there is no root.

I'm here. Coming from an EVO 4G LTE, which was great and still sits on my desk for now. Definitely twiddling my thumbs until we get root, @jcase says mid-August which is... sad, but I can't complain. Until then I'm enjoying the new girl.

Rephrase,
If I can get my hands on one, which I suspect I will..
I will start working on an exploit for it in mid august, for public release. Not guaranteeing a release in mid august.
I almost offered it up to you on Twitter earlier . If you need one to get root working I can send mine to you from CO and hop back on my S3 until you're done. I'll pay shipping back and forth.

Just got mine today... Didnt pay a cent for it! In fact got a promo price of 100$.. The guy knocked off 50 off that... And with trade in of old Galaxy Note 2 I walked away with a 55$ best buy gift card! Excited for the development on this phone! Great things to come
