Hi, I unfortunatelly broke my G2 mini.
It's all ruined, it came off me with 20 meters of stairs.
Is it worth paying for it to repair or buy a new phone?
The phone does not turn on, as I plug it into another display it shows the sign of the empty battery even though I have it charged.
Is it worth the change to the iPhone 5s or another Android phone?
I have only ~€300
Ps. Sorry for bad translations. I'm using Google Translator, I don't know English very well.
I would say that it's not worth the money to fix it.
Also, I would strongly advice against buying an iPhone.
If I were you I would buy an Android phone.
I would repair it myself, if I know what's broken. You can buy an used G2 mini from someone who sell it (online) so you get the spare parts cheaper. The G2 mini is relatively easy to repair.

Well, in that case, see for how much you can get the parts and decide if you want to fix it.
Open up your device to see what is broken.
I want iPhone because i'm tired of modding my devices.

So, I guess, too much freedom is a thing...
The way I see it, it's always better to have the ability to do something and not do it because you don't want to than to want to do something and not have the ability to.
Get an android phone, don't mod it, unless you want to...
Simple as that...
Plus, you get a device that offers capabilities for the money you pay, instead of a 1000€ phone with the capabilities of a 2014 android phone.
But, of course, that's how I see it...
Your money, you decide...

You can get quite decent smartphone with android for 300€, honor 8 or Samsung A5 (2017) / galaxy S6, Xperia X, etc. When 300€ will buy you iPhone SE ... I would not buy a phone with 4 inch , 1136x640 display. Not in 2017 and not for that money.

Hi all!
I'm an xperia x8 user with the basic (or some more) knowledge about Android. I really like MiUI, but my phone is weak to run a MiUI smoothly. Five or four weeks ago i saw Xiaomi M2' hw specs and price and found it awesome. My Q is: What do you think about this phone? Do you trust Xiaomi and shipping partners? (I wanna do)
Share your opinions please, I'll thank y'all.

M2 looks really nice. So far this year I jumped from 4s > xperia s > one x > s3 > iphone 5 and now I want to go back to android. but i'm in love with MIUI and this M2 phone specs and looks are pretty good. Price is cheap for such a high end spec'd phone.

hey guys, I use the Xiaomi M2 and it is a great phone. It does not have google play on it but its easy to add and does not require root. The screen is crazy good (especially comparing to my Huawei Honor) and it's just so quick. I'm not a huge fan of MIUI but some really love it.
Anyway, despite the fact that it is currently sold out in china and unavailable for sale anywhere else, I got my hands on a few of those. So if you're interested you can contact me. I'll sell at same price as the website mentionned in the thread but you will not have to wait until March or something to get it and I can use paypal so that you are protected against fraud. I'm also a former powerseller on ebay and am selling in on eBay too but at a higher price to cover eBay fees.
Selling it for 450 on ebay, can do for 400 here.
I hope you don't feel it's a spam, I know how hard it is to get a hand on this phone...almost as hard as the N4...
A friend is saling his Samsung S2 i9100 coming with a new mpj extended battery. He bought it two years ago, but still runs good. Is it still wise to buy? My phone just dead totally and I need a replacement asap. Please helped me with a decision, thanks!
Yes buy it..
It still a good midrange phone.
A dual core wid 1gigs of ram and 8mp camera wid 16gb inbuilt space
Thumbs up
it's a good phone
honnestly, i have mine from about 2 years, and i,m very pleased with it, and i dont plan to change it until there is something on tha market that really make a difference...
No, not 2nd hand. Not at any price. The number of phones we see develop faults on here after the 2yr mark means you're going to have to spend money on it sooner or later. You're better off getting an S3 cheap if the most recent devices (S4/others) are too expensive for you.
But if you were to get it for free, then yeah, why not.

Country's economy is completely irrelevant, who goes in the market to buy a phone just for some country's economy.
Anyways, I own S2, and I do like it very much. However, if you can find a better phone for your bdget (like note, S3), go for it.
Why not man?? Go ahead and buy it lol. But i really recommend a new phone than second hand.

I agree with @MistahBungle, you shouldn't buy it. Even tho most people say its a good phone, i see no reason to buy it right now when there are phones like Moto G out there, and you definitely shouldn't if its 2 years old because a month after you buy it you will come back here.
@Dakura - moto g is not superior in all aspects...
S2 is still beneficial in terms of
Screen hardware quality (not ppi)
Camera (moto g camera is pathetic i have used my friend's ..its no were near to s2...no touch to focus also..lol)
No expandable memory...
Wifi direct doesnt works wid a sammy wifi direct ready device..
Almost same screen size...coz 0.2" screen size is used by ugly on screen buttons...
S2 still has more developer support (in terms of kernel development..all exynos 4 family is treated equally)
And its pure aosp... Even to swtich of data... U need to pull down notification bar... Settings...mobile network and then get to data...
To get cm on moto g..say bye to much needed warranty ...:victory:.. S2 is a legend...
ya you should have. Its a great phone.
It's a good value for the $. Flash latest CM or SlimRom and it's as good as it gets.
make sure its not clone...and check whether he/she drop/disassemble it...
and i agree with @MistahBungle, if you have the option to buy 1st-hand phone, drop the offer...2nd-hand is 50-50 even if it is in good condition
I would go for the S2 HD or S3.
480x800 isn't a nice resolution for 4.3 inch.
NO , Don't buy any phone that has no warranty at all as it will costs you to replace any faulty part in future if problem persists and they don't come for cheap..
There are now much better option available..
You can opt for Xperia SP , that's a good phone.. Moto G- The bestselling phone right now or any other Good phone phone in your budget..
Don't make decisions on the basis of what people said here... Just mak a list And decide on your own what features or requirements you need and then go for that phone..
BTW Moto G is really good , if you don't click many pics , that will suit your requirement , However Outdoor are stil pretty good..
If root & custom ROMS are not your choice and just want to use pure android and its smoothness .. Go for Moto G..
Well i would go for moto g because newer plus not exynos(more developer support) and kitkat official or get s3 if you can these are good alternatives but if you want an s2 so bad get it if better price.
I would buy a second hand 2 year old no warranty S2 for maybe 50$ or lesser, but that pricing itself will get me suspicious enough to not get it at all, don't get me wrong, I love my old faithful and sturdy S2 to still not upgrade and probably will hang on to it till the day it dies, but as a new and cheap investment I would go for the Moto G as many other's recommend here.

Hey guys. I'm currently using an HTC One and I'm thinking of buying the Xperia Z2 in June. The last Sony phone I used was the X10 Mini and haven't used a Sony since. I wasn't at all impressed by the new HTC One or the Galaxy S5, so basically the only phone left that's even remotely interesting would be the Xperia Z2.
Which brings me to my question: Can Sony be trusted? I have read about several issues with their phones.
Same boat as you. Last sony I had was the standard Sony X10. It was awful. Hated every minute of it. Was not as bad as my nokia 5800 I owned before it though.
Phones since then have been the galaxy S2, galaxy S3, now the LG G2 (best phone so far), and now pre ordered the X2. It looks amazing, and am very excited about it. Might not have it long as im planning (stupidly maybe) to take it to my 3yr old sons swimming lessons and get some underwater video footage of him as he loves swimming underwater! Think the slow motion feature will look amazing. So hoping Sony really is true to their word on it being waterproof

Well, after using some 9 Sony phones I believe this is the only brand which can be trusted so well. In fact I went a step ahead to import their Xperia Ray when it came out some 2 and a half years ago(means no warranty). Not a single issue still, it has fallen face down, been in contact with water, thrown against the wall and it still works with a scratch! Of course, I had to change its battery twice tho, both times after it fell or I threw it in anger, as the battery went a little fluffy and back plate wouldn't completely lock into its place. Recently got the third battery.

Good to know, haha. I'm not really into throwing 100's of euros worth of smartphones into the wall though. Being unemployed really makes you contain your anger and focus it on something else, lol. :silly:
Trusted? not really.
Let say this, the quality of the materials is without questioning but with the Software they screwed us from day one on Z1 and with the release of KitKat 4.4 they compleated the mess, which is the worst OS seen on Z1, with all the restrictions.
I own Z1 and now is not worth to sell it to buy the Z2 but everybody who did not buy Z1 I recommend to get Z2 as it is very well improved.
So I think even is Sony cannot be fully trusted I think you will not have regrets to buy Z2.

Well seeing how Slimesung failed with the S5 (they even managed to mess TW up even more, lol. Uglier and STILL lagging) and HTC failed with the M8 in my eyes (they could have put in a higer MP camera...), the Z2 is the only interesting phone out there, in my humble opinion.

I agree with you, at least HTC have tried something different, that vould be classed as usefull, dual camera, its definately, and could be useful. I mean come on, a heartbeat monitor, seriously!! I loved my S2 and my S3. The S4 just did not offer enough to make me change, and my anticipation for the S5 was so high. I was convinced I was getting the S5!!
My partner is now asking why im getting a sony after saying I was going to get the S5 for so long. Well darling, its because it is sh.........
The Z2 is definately the best phone available at the moment, and strangely, I find it beautiful! I really cant wait to own it and (geniunly) go swimming with it (im planning on doing a video of my 3yr old at his swimming lesson).
Still, phone of the year I think in my opinion will be...........the LG G3!

To be fair i though that on release of kit kat on G2, however I have flashed version 20b on it and suffer no problems whatsoever, I know its not officially release in Uk, but hey, thats why im on xda
I have no experience of Sony updates as if yet so cant comment here with an opinion yet. I know im going to love the Z2, the only thing that worries me is battery, but im hoping with a 3200 battery it will last the day as my G2 does with extreme heavy use.
On a side note, i bloody hate pre ordering phones, hate waiting, have zero patience with things like that at least when my phone does come i will have a new shiny sony tv being delivered for free shortly after, nice bonus considering I would have got the Z2 regardless. Samsung, hang your heads in shame :what:

You do know Sony aren't offering a TV, right? It's all on Vodafone UK, mate. Don't wanna defend Samsung, just wanna get the facts out.
Besides, if the battery turns out to be a little on the downside on the stock rom, I'm sure you could flash something that improves the battery. That's why we're on XDA.

Well to be fair its actually Sony doing the promotion, just through Vodafone, which luckily for me I am on.
TV Offer: Promoter, Sony Mobile Communications. First 3000 eligible pre-orders only before 09.04.14. TV can only be redeemed after first bill payment, between 08.05.14 to 08.07.14. Airtime agreement required. Excludes business customers, except small business (1-4 connections). TV offer Ts&Cs at vodafone.co.uk/sonyxperia
Soon as you recieve tv vodafone dont want to know. Hopefully this means that vodafone are one of the 'trusted partners' that will get the phone on release.
And yes your right on the battery side, but always better to get it running good from stock first as a good base to build on. I am hoping to be honest that people really do decide to avoid the Samsung, not because I hate them as I dont, but because I want them to pull something special out of the bag for the S6. The S3 was such a special phone and I loved it, still holds its own now, especially with a custom rom.

Hi there!
I don't know what to do??
Am getting a brand new Korean made LG G2-32Gb at $450.
1. Should I go for it?
Or wait for some other phone like Oneplus One?
2. Will there be a price drop in G2?
3. Am into gaming and internet etc. Is G2 fine for next 2 years?
Please help :crying:
if your going to spend that much I'd get the LG G3 or wait for the LG G2 to drop in price after the G3 is out for a while.
Seems good

LG G2 is a good smartphone to buy. But as you are saying that this you are getting this phone for $450, I think its a good price. But I have seen on many portals that this product is available for nearly $430. The features available in this smartphones are really amazing. I must say that you have opted a good choice and you must select this phone for you.
I think that waiting for any other mobile will not be a wise option. The reason is that after small span of time a new phone might be available with new technology and features. At that time you might again get confused to whether buy it or not. So I think that you must makeup your mind and buy this LG G2.

%99 of the time if it comes from a network provide its branded
if it comes from a 3rd party provider or directly from Sony usually its unbranded
this varies depending on your country
The problem is, I've heard that some of the 3rd parties in Poland sell branded Play/Orange phones and some people get to know it, when they get an update from either of those. The weirdest thing is, that in Sony Centre they say that Z2 in my other local shop can be branded, when in that shop they say that their Z2's are not branded. I don't know what to think about it at all. The thing is, that in the other shop the phone is 100$ cheaper and I can check it before buying, so I could check if it's branded or not, only I have to know how. Is it somewhat connected with the service menu?

Sony said "can be branded" if the shop says it isn't branded and it is, you can legally sue them
and branded deviced are usualy cheaper because they are simlocked and/or non bootloader unlockable
From what I've read I can easily ckeck if the bootloader is locked or not (via the service menu).
And for the discussion, in Sony Center they said that the other shop (one of the biggest retailers in country btw) bought those phones from Orange. In Komputronik they said that guys in Sony who told me that are sick in their minds. And I don't know who to trust XD

i think your best bet is to buy directly from sony or a supported 3rd party supplier that isnt this one
:/ safety is often worth the extra money rather then taking a potential risk
It seems I have to. Anyway, sorry for the offtop but I have a question for you. Do you think that Z2 is a good phone to upgrade from my current iPhone 4S? And do you think it would work good and fast for 3 years like my iPhone? Or would you rather buy something else? (G3, M8, Nexus maybe?)

Yes, especially as the prices have fallen now due to the Z3 release. I guess you'll be happy with the Z2.
Thanks for al your answers! I think I'll get a Z2 from my local Sony Center, but if anyone knows a way how to check the branding, please post it below anyway. It may be useful for some poeple

Definatly!
alot of iphone users who love that minimalist ios look and feel often come to xperia for its UI and looks
however, go and play with the G3, and M8 and then come back to xperia
ive noticed some phones take some tinkering before the user can properly decide weather they like it or not
personaly for me id either have a iphone 5S (6 is terrible compared to 5, felt cheap :{ sme people like it i guess) or a xperia simply because i love both phones
I really like the looks of my 4S and iOS 7. I wanted something with bigger screen than in the 5S anyway, so that's why I waited till the keynote and the only things I can say about 6 and 6 plus's relation between hardware, design and price is just... meh
That's why I think about getting Z2. It looks like a bigger and facelifted 4S + from what I've heard the battery is really good in this one And the microsd port is always a nice thing to have

plenty of useful features.. if you use them
nice looks.. to me at least
1080p screen
water resistant IP58 Cert
xperias are tough. i beat a Xperia S up for about 3 years and it still works in my brothers hands
Z2 feels tough

lol forgot about this xD
im not sure weather its li-poly or li-ion
Sony Team 7- Li-Ion
Sony Team 8- Li-poly
Xperia blog staff- 50:50ish poly vs ion
either way the battery should last 2-4 years

perhaps its a hybrid

Li-ion wears out over time and incrases due to heating
Li-poly wears out due to use and after a long time it will explode
I've just read (and saw at many Youtube vidoes) that the Z2 likes to overhear, espacially while playing games/watching movies and (most of the time) while taking photos and recording videos. Is it really such a common problem?
I didn't read the whole thread but if you plan to flash CyanogenMod on it, then u will lose the carrierbrand anyway.
