Back in the summer of 2010, I had started wanting a smartphone. I wanted to be connected to the internet wherever I went. I had an old feature phone on AT&T that just wasn't cutting it. I was looking around the internet for Android-based smartphones, and I came to decide upon the Samsung Galaxy i5700, which I found for a really good price (later, I found it too good to be true). I had ordered it, but I got the run around and they had none in stock. I canceled the order and settled on getting a used G1 on ebay. I had initially used it for about a month not as a phone but just as a PDA on WiFi and then in October 2010, I finally decided to put my SIM card in the G1 and use it as a phone. The rest is history.

Motorola Milestone 1. It's amazing because I still have that phone. I would change it if Kabaldan didn't develop software on them so well. I have experience from 2.1 to 4.1.2.

For me it's really fresh: GS3 was my first Android phone. Many people said to me that it won't be a big change as I came from 5 years of iPhone, and they were right.

Since June I can finally mod my phone the way i want: making my own phone really mine is what I enjoy now!

My first Android Device was a Developer Unlocked Nexus which was the shizit when it came to android phones in the beginning, then I moves to. Samsung moment but never got rid of my Nexus(Still have it actually just battery is fried and since I have way newer devices now no reason to buy a new battery) When battery fried I moved to a Samsung Moment which was ok I guess needed ext2/3/4 to make any kinda noticeable improvementsbto the device at least in linpack and quadrant scores back in my Sdx Developer days. Since then I've tried to buy as many different devices since I work as a Phone Tech for a small wireless store that provides a unlock service. Repair service, we also root and mod phones for our customers for a certain price been there now for God too long sobive worked with almost every kinda Android device I personally own over 25 working devices and wow idk maybe 50-60 plus devices that were used for spare parts and what not lol. Im kind of a tech hoarder lol. But now My main go to device is the Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4g and the iPhone 5. Daily driver is Galaxy Exhibit 4g running Jocalas cm9 release. IPhone 5 was bought online and haven't got it unlocked yet so its just used a really expensive iPod lol. Galaxy s3 I use as my home device thru Wi-Fi since my laptop is old as sh*t lol. We've come along.way since the first Android Public Consumer Release and hope we will go to infinity and beyond lol......

My first Android device was a HTC Tattoo.

It was running Android 1.6, and it was laggy as hell, and it didn't got any updates from HTC as long as I owned it. But I loved the design of the system and the open-source idea. So aprox 1,5 year later I bought an HTC Sensation which I still have, and this is really a big upgrade compared to the HTC Tattoo, and it is still satisfying my needs, even though a lot of new models have arrived to the marked.

The first Android device I actually got to use was the HTC G1 (aka HTC Dream). My Ex was on T-Mobile and upgraded from her Sidekick and I was so insanely jealous because at the time I had an LG Voyager and really didn't care for it.

So, almost a year later, I went out and got the original Motorola Droid on the morning of its launch. Never looked back.

Long ago, in a land far away

My first experience with Android would have been on a Motorola Cliq, and it almost turned me off to Android forever. Poor performance, crashing, and if I didn't reset it at least once a day it hated doing anything. It actually made me swear off Android for a time. I went back to using Symbian phones. Then for a short time tried an iPhone, I loved the iPhone but it wasn't mine so I had only a short time with it.

I was thinking of getting an iPhone for my next phone, but switched carriers and couldn't use an iPhone yet (at the time Sprint didn't have them) so I had to go with another Android. I chose the Galaxy S Epic.

It was better than my Cliq, but still had issues. Then something awesome happened, Cyanogenmod started supporting the Epic! After putting that on my phone I was amazed! I finally saw what an Android phone was capable of being, and that's what won me over.

I went from Windows Mobile TP2 to Samsung Galaxy Note.

What do i love about Android:

1. The memory management is like Linux its so efficient. No more killing apps needed like on windows mobile.

2. It is built for customization.

3. It is very efficient on the battery.

4. It does not have an i in front of it (lol)

5. The hardware has reached the point of and exceeded computers in some aspects.

What do i hate about Android:

1. Not much really tbh. I dont like the way that apps cant be installed to an external_sd card but in fairness it is by design to prevent apps from being broken in case of removal of the ext_sd card.

I couldn't resist any longer and I got myself a Motorola Milestone which was my first Android phone - loved it and loved Android - never looked back since then. Currently using Galaxy S2 (I had a Desire in between).

Waiting for the Galaxy S4 or Note 3 to upgrade.
