Just wait, apple went from Motorola processors in their computers to intel and a Linux based is, (where the hackintosh is out of). Maybe they will make iphones the same way someday to save more money and will get Android based, though they would still have to be jailbreak'd.

I'm thinking about waiting for the xiaomi mi5.

Nexus 5 or Moto G 2015 ? I need help :D

The Nexus 5 has great hardware and tons of ROM's. But Google doesn't sell it any more and the phone becomes rare in D821 variant, so I fear a bad warranty. I'd like to keep it for several years, is it solid ?

The Moto G is not as good as the Nexus but it's cheaper and easier to find. It also has some ROM's and has a nice design with Moto Maker.

Hi guys, I need your help by choosing a smartphone. I need a smartphone with good battery life, performance and that looks nice for the price not more then 250€. Here are some of my suggestions with the special Christmas prices:

Honor 6 240€

Huawei honor 4x 144€

Zte blade v6 147€

Huawei asced g7 190€

Lg g flex 2 190€

Xiaomi Redmi note 3 (32 gb) 250€

Of course if you have some other Ideas, pls tell me which smartphone I should buy in this price range. Thanks in advance.
[General Topics] Planterz:
Neither. LG G2. Same internal hardware as the Nexus 5, but bigger battery and much better camera, and still a lot of development, and everything is way better than the Moto G despite being an older device.

And the G3 ? I can buy it for the same price as the G2. It seems to have good developement but the laser autofocus and OIS stop working if you use AOSP. Is it a problem ?

[General Topics] josip-k:
No, camera is equally bad as on stock rom.

The current pricing on the G3 is a freaking bargain. Plus it gives you the microSD slot and removable battery. I honestly don't know what using different ROMs does to the camera.

I need new phone, and now can't decide.. It has to have at least 5.5 inch display. I was thinking about OnePlus 2, but i'm worried about display, had some problems with OPO display before.. Now i'm thinking to get Moto X Style/Pure.. i don't mind SD 808 and 1GB RAM less than OP2, but it has bigger and better QHD display, and a better warranty..
[General Topics] Lorenz15:
And it doesn't have overheating issues like the SD 810.

Go for the X Style if you like Motorolas Software(Bloatware) but i have a similar opinion like you, i think i will wait for the Xiaomi Mi5...hope it will have 3D touch but it has only a 5.2/5.3 inch screen://
[General Topics] Planterz:
Don't forget about the Motorola Nexus 6. If you play games at all, you'll appreciate the superior GPU the SD805 has. You can find them for remarkably cheap now.

Looking for At&T Gophone Phone Recommendation

I was a Sprint S3 guy. Liked it because it seemed so easy to change to my needs. Examples: I rooted it, I boosted volume, I tried other roms. I now have an S4 i337 with AT&T. Before anyone says why AT&T ..I changed because it has better coverage in upstate NY. I rooted the S4 but can't change bootloader to try another rom. Its ok but am looking for a unlocked gsm phone than can be rooted, bootloader changed ( I liked Philz) This was all thanks to help from XDA members help. One that can be unlocked, volume mods ect. Can anyone recommend such a phone? I thank you for your replies and help.
[General Topics] Planterz:
Need more input. How big? Do you require removable battery? MicroSD slot? Most importantly, how much can you spend?
[General Topics] unclescary:
Removable battery would be a plus but not a requirement. Definitely would like a MicroSD slot. Would like to spend no more than $200 if possible for a used phone. Again I thank all for their help and input.
[General Topics] Planterz:
You can get used LG G3's for under $200. I think the AT&T one has an unlocked bootloader, but you should check to be certain. I know the T-Mobile one does, and works on all of AT&T's LTE bands. The G3 is easily the best bargain right now when it comes to cost for performance and features, as long as it's not too big for you.

Sorry for spaming this thread. This should be a Christmas present for my girlfriend. Now she has a old galaxy s3 mini and I can't see this anymore because of this ugly plastic and this small and bad battery. That's why I was nervous, because I have only 3 days left.

So if you have any suggestion which smartphone I should buy for not more then 250€, then I will be very happy. It should have good performance, battery life and it should not be a plastic phone.

Except zero development, really nice device for sure and super unique but due to the locked bootloader its a paperweight for anyone who enjoys healthy development... Which should be anyone on this site lol.

If it got unlocked id buy one for sure though.

The g3 is fairly compact despite the 5.5 screen, probably the smallest overall for that screen size.

[General Topics] 350Rocket:
Personally, I would only buy the g3 with plans to install a custom Rom because it seems to have a lot of lag on stock Rom, watching all the reviews. Almost like a stock Samsung touchwiz device. If I was telling my sister what phone to buy next I would say anything with stock Android or an HTC phone with sense. That way I won't keep hearing about how her phone is freezing all the time like her s3 and the original galaxy s before it and she should have bought an iPhone. Now she has a nexus 5. No freezing with it, the biggest issue she had turned out to be faulty headphones activating the Google voice search.

I don't need luck mate, because the official cm nightly is now bugfree. (NO FC'S) screen flickering bug removed because of the great cm maintainer. 20 Builds in 17 Days, and I have fun! Android M for s3 grows so fast(boeffla kernel included) . Why should I buy another device? Because of better camera? I bought Nikon Camera 2 weeks ago. Because of speed? Wow the galaxy s6 open a app in 0,1 second and my s3 in 1-2 second, who cares. Ram management has been very improved, and I don't play huge games. I will also buy a new battery, and then it will have great battery life. Plastic? I bought on eBay alu bumper for 5€ and nobody knows which device I am holding in my hands [emoji1] . There is no need to buy another device (think of the environment).

I Wish you good development with your Note 3.

I am waiting for Xiaomi 5 with xiaolong 820 processor, but I don't know when it will be released. i think the 5.2 inch screen is more suitable for me, haha~ still waiting..
[General Topics] Planterz:
I have an S4 too, and for what it is (5" device), I haven't found it lacking. The processor/GPU will play intense 3D games (although I use my OnePlus One for that), it's thin, light, has a microSD slot that works with my new 128GB card, and has a swappable battery. Most importantly, it's a much better device than the majority of 2015 low-to-mid end devices like Moto G, Xperia M4, Oppo R7, etc, yet costs less. The irony is that it was inferior in some ways to its competitors when it came out because its processor wasn't the latest and greatest, but 2+ years later, it's held up well and is a bargain compared newer phones that cost as much or more.

I have the g3 (stock) and s5 (rooted). I love the s5 and I want to sell my g3 to buy a Nexus 5. I'll probably want the 5x later tho lol
[General Topics] Planterz:
Going from a G3 to a Nexus 5 is a step backwards in all respects. If your motivation is simply that you prefer a smaller size phone, get an LG G2 instead. If size isn't an issue, the Moto X Pure/Style is a better value than the Nexus 5X.
[General Topics] belauanima:
The g3 isn't too big. It's my 2nd line and it stays home most of the time anyways. I've been wanting a nexus phone for awhile, always heard nothing but good things about em. I think the nexus 6 is a bit outside my preferred price range so that is my sorry reasoning to get the 5 lol.

Maybe I should just wait until the 6 suffers a price drop or just get a nexus tab. Always been a fan of moto phones too tho, I'll check it out, thanks for the advice and suggestions!

What is the difference between active and passive dual sim?
[General Topics] billiejoearmstrongg:
Been using xplay since a month now go for it!
[General Topics] Planterz:
Dual active means you can get calls on either/both at any time. The phone will have 2 radios. On a dual passive, one is passive, that means you have to switch from one SIM over to the other if you want to use it. Basically like swapping SIMs except you don't have to physically do it. There's also dual standby, where both can make/receive calls, but during the call the other is inactive. When it comes to data though, I'm honestly not sure how this works. Dual SIM phones (and usage) isn't common in North America.

Yes. To get answers, you need to feed the xda-oracle with useful information.

1. Where do you live (country)? Can you buy online?

2. What do you want from your phone?

Speed for games? Screen size? Want to customize? Looks? Features? Etc etc.

If you are into customizing (ROMs), I suggest you check which models are supported. A good place to look would be cyanogenmod. Google "cyanogenmod wiki" or similar.

Or check all the devices you are interested in here on xda. Look for custom ROMs activity.

Xda has a view that list the devices by activity. Nexus always on top.

I think the Zenfone 2 (16GB storage/4GB of ram) is the better buy is it has more ram and a stronger GPU for $20 less. I believe the laser is $249 while the one I mentioned is $229. Unless you want faster auto focus and a removeable battery then I suggest going for the other.

What should I buy Meizu PRO 5 or Huawei Mate 8?

Hi people from XDA,

I'm in a dilemma, I'm in china and I want to buy a new phone between this 3/4 the Meizu PRO 5, the Huawei Mate 7/8 and the OPPO R7 Plus.

I can get the Meizu PRO 5 64gb ROM, 4gb RAM for 430 Euros (Should I get the 4gb RAM version or with 3gb is enough? I don't mind about the storage)

The Mate 7 (32gb ROM and 3gb RAM) and Mate 8(32gb ROM and 3gb RAM) are the same price (460 euros) I don't know why.

The OPPO R7 Plus (32gb ROM and 3gb RAM) for 460 euros.

So please guys tell me which one of those would be the best to buy, and If you know other interesting phones with a similar price that you think are better than the previous mentioned, don't doubt in recommending it.

Thanks a lot :D:D

I love the design of mate 7/8, tried it here in Bangkok. Awesome device. But I ended up buying an oppo r7plus(f), simply because I can put any android ROM on it. It's not locked the way most of the Chinese phones are.

Did you check the price of mate in Europe or US? UK-ebay has it for £300(€400).

If you live outside China, you should check if the radio has the correct bands for your place.
