Bro, first of all thanks for starting a thread like this. Brought back memories of my early phone years in which I didn't know I could do so much more with my phones other than calling, texting and playing Tetris.

Well anyways my first phone was a Chinese one. :eek: I hardly knew the manufacturer name or model :what:. But it had some awesome loud speakers. Year:2004-2005

My second phone was an i-Mate JAQ3. It was my first smartphone running Windows Mobile 5.0. Thought it was quite geeky and awesome back in the day. Year:2008-2009

My third phone was a Nokia N70. Man this was THE best Nokia or overall phone back in its day but sadly not for long. The 1 GB maximum storage was crappy at best. Its life ended when it fell down the Toilet :( . Year:2009-mid 2009

My fourth phone was one of the greatest I ever owned. The HTC TyTN II. It was freaking awesome running Windows Mobile 6.1. Since it wouldn't be upgraded above that, I entered the world of Custom ROMS and of course into XDA :D :thumbup: . I still have it and it sort of works except for the White Screen Of Death issue :( . Year:mid 2009-mid 2010.

My fifth phone was a Symbian smartphone. The Nokia N97 Mini. That phone was utterly beautiful. But the introduction of Android and phones such as the HTC EVO 4G, Motorola Droid, Google Nexus One and HTC HD2 made sure that its launch wasn't as grand as Nokia hoped and so the phone wasn't quite what I expected. Its still lying around in my cupboard gathering dust. Year:mid 2010-mid 2011.

My sixth and current phone is the phone that introduced me to the world of Android. The Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro. :D:thumbup::cool:. This phone turned out to be the underdog of the entire 2011 lineup thanks to earthquakes in Japan and of course Sony itself. It became outdated as soon as it launched in October thanks to the Samsung Galaxy S II and HTC Sensation but its still a heck of a phone and serves me faithfully till today. Year:mid 2011-Present.

My first phone was a Panasonic GD92 that i took from my father years ago. Then a Nokia 3510i and many many others until recently i was still using Nokia with Symbian and HTC with Windows. But now, i have a samsung galaxy sii. My first Android and my favourite phone until now! :)

I have had androids on verizon since they came out before that was blackberry's. Loved the nexus, so development friendly. learned rooting and swapping rom's on my thunderbolt. Recently got a S3 and rooted and unlocked, added a rom it did not like and got a brick. Mobile tech video was able to ressurect for me. Have to be careful with this one.

My first phone was a Nokia 3310 I only ever used it to text and play Snake! By the way I have never understood all of the the indestructible jokes about since I broke my a week before getting my text phone (luckily) but dropping it out of my pocket! Screen went and everything!

My next phone was another Nokia phone, I think it was the 7110! Screen was bigger, but still black on greenish-white. Awesome thing was it had the Simpsons on the home screen in 8-bit images!

Next phone was the Motorola V220. Only thing I got that for was to say, "Hey, I have a flip phone!" Didn't offer much other than a colour screen, a camera and a few java games.

Thank I got the Motorola L6. It rocked 21mb of storage! It was crap but at the time I loved it! Only different to the V220 was that it had Bluetooth! Video and Camera were slightly improved too.

Then I had the Sony Ericsson W810i - Bought a 2gb (huge at the time) and filled it full of music!

Next came the Sony Ericsson W580i. Bought for the exact same reason then replaced for the same reason! Dropped in a bath full of water!

Then I got a Samsung G500. Nothing Special.

Samsung Galaxy S was great to start, but after 2 years it got old!

Now I'm with my Samsung Galaxy S III - Never regretted and love it! Android is my favourite operating system! Glad to say I've never owned and iPhone!

I went from Nokia being my favorite phones well before they ever made any Nokia windows phone. Then I trade out Motorola hated it. Then I tried iPhone let me tell you I was an iPhone gather but I fell in love the phone was great but its limits just made me mad had to many features missing it was not my cup of tea until I jailbroke but what a Hassel with updates and tethered jailbreaks. Then I got my first android galaxy nexus with ICS and I was in love the freedom to do whatever I want with my phone then I rooted and installed custom ROMs and I was in heaven now I'm on galaxy s3 with custom jelly bean ROM and I will never go back to any other os android Iove u lol

Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro SK17a

Never really used the slide-out keyboard, would trade it the keyboard (hypothetically) for 8GB or 16GB internal storage

The internal storage is so bad, I only get 300MB of usable space for apps, so I would have to move a lot of stuff onto the sdcard

The camera is pretty good, since I flashed Cybershot on it, now I can record videos at 12Mbps with 256kbps stereo audio, sweet

But it's pretty slow, so yeah

My first phone was a Nokia 6510. It was very expensive at the time but I really wanted it because of all the features, it's looks and most of all the small size of it. Worked perfectly for 5-6 years until the battery gave up (the rest of the phone was still working great).

After that I wanted something top notch without buying something overpriced. The Sony Ericsson K810i just came out so I was able to get the K800i at a massive discount. This phone had everything I needed at the time, all basic smart phone functions + 3G for relatively fast internet browsing. The 2 best things about this phone where it's build quality and it's amazing camera. The Carl Zeiss lens really showed in pictures.

Currently I've got a second hand Galaxy S for over a year now. The Sony Ericsson was still doing fine but I wanted to try Android. Currently running Semaphore kernel, X-Bean 3.0 and some anti lag script and the phone works very smooth. Very happy with this phone, especially because of it's size. I think the current Android flagship phones are way too big.

back in the old days i didnt care about phones since they were too huge or just too plain but the oone the that started it all was

this kyocera slider it was really cool for me at least lol

then i jumped to motorola V3

then motorola L7

then to motorola v3 MAXX (really liked the looks of this phone)

then nokia n95

then my trusty friend that went missing in action Nokia N8

and lastly what began a great road and start with android, a samsung galaxy s 2

the end

Motorola Vegas

The only phone I've owned that is sort of worth mentioning here was my second phone, the Motorola... Vegas, I think it was called. It was the new Razr at the time, I believe. Boy was that thing a piece of junk! It was capable of a lot but for whatever reason Motorola put tons of stupid restrictions on it! The biggest one was that you couldn't add custom ringtones. There was a bypass, however. You could add a ringtone by transferring a custom ringtone from the previous Razr to it via bluetooth. What a waste of time.

sony ericsson - my first cellphone, had a really pretty exterior. i dont really remember the UI that well, it was a T9 phone and had a really good camera shutter speed and default lighting/contrast setting. overall not buggy.

then.. lg kf350. yep, the famous ice cream phone. got it because of the customizable LED. T9 phone. not that great TBH, was super buggy the first couple months i used it. oh, and it only holds like 200 texts at once (cant backup to external). interface was really limiting, camera shutter was slowish.. dont think a real working browser existed (not that i ever had a data plan at the time). it was such a pretty phone though.

then.. blackberry 9780. got it off kijiji (used). it was okay. at this time, everyone started getting smartphones, but i felt like i wasnt ready for a touchscreen yet. i really liked the physical keyboard. it was somewhat buggy, but had a lot more functionality compared to my past phones. the apps were okay, the camera was decent. and i finally got a phone that does the conversational view for text messages so that was a huge improvement.

then... motorola atrix 4g. they gave this to me for work. i really liked it. even though it was sorta laggy at times. first touch screen smartphone, but the letters on the keyboard were super skinny (found it difficult to type at times).

then.. samsung focus. got this cause i fell in love with the interface. my phones just keep getting bigger and bigger. easier to type, better overall interface. a few things i didnt like - this was my first phone that didnt allow music to be used as ringtones or alarms. also had a few issues during calls where the phone would light up whenever i got toast notifications, causing me to touch random keys like 'hold' or 'end' call -.-

The Galaxy S2 is my first venture into the smartphone area, minus blackberry for work for a number of years.

I never really got attached to my phones prior to this, obviously not the same functionality and minus all the hardware.

The phone on my S2 gets the least amount of use. I'd say the GPS and WIFI get a run for their money in my daily use.

my unfortunate history

my first phone that i got in grade 5 was one of the original Nokia bricks , i can still remember playing snake for countless hours, i had that phone for a year, then it was the popular e250 which i eventually wore down till my parents bought me a new phone , this time it was the Nokia 6330 which was superb for 1,5 years till i accidentally fell of a jetty into the river whilst helping an old lady, then it was a lg p500 or Optimus 1 which was my favorite phone until i tried to install a dodgy custom ROM without any knowledge what i was doing, i bricked my phone hardcore , luckily the people at my phone carrier did not know what was going on and so they gave me a new 1 , which i am still using to this day and i am going to try ROM it again and put cm 10 on it with hopefully a little more luck. my fav phone of all time is htc one X

Galaxy 5 GT-i5500 (Jan 22nd, 2011) > Galaxy S2 GT-i9100 (Jan 8th, 2012)

Big difference between these two...!! :D

Galaxy 5 : My first ever personal phone that too my first ever experience with Android..! Used to think it was a HIGH-END phone until I saw Galaxy S, S2, ..etc :P :P

It was when my story begin....lived on stock ROM for around 6 months, got bored..then tried CYANOGEN MOD which changed my life after then...

Began life as ANDROID FANATIC since then...

Galaxy S2 : The biggest leap in my life....I was blown away by its speed, ram, camera, GPU.. etc..! It still amazes me even though S3 is out...its not worth the upgrade..

My first phone was a Nokia 5110, then I had a few Orange/O2 branded smartphones, all actually HTCs (SPV, C500, C600, E650, XDA Exec), then switched to iPhone for a bit (3G, 3GS, 4), then switched to Windows Phone 7 with a HTC Mozart, then a Nokia Lumia 800, and now finally on Windows Phone 8 with a HTC 8X.

So all the phones I've owned have really been from just 3 manufactures - Nokia, Apple, and HTC.

I've had pretty good experiences with most of my phones. I only really started messing with smartphones a few years ago though (iPhone 3G). I've had a few iPhones since then, but I made the jump to Android when the Motorola Atrix was released and I haven't looked back. My current phone is a Galaxy Nexus (toro) and I love it - although having gone all in with VZW this time, I know now that my next phone will not be tied to a carrier for updates.

My first was a Nokia 8310, then a 9500. Then I went on a Motorola spree with some silver flip-phone pieces of ****, followed by a RAZR. Tried a Blackberry Pearl 8310 for a while. Now I am on a Samsung Infuse 4G.

What motivates me to try a new phone? Price. I am a cheap SOB, and am willing to use slightly outdated tech to save a buck. The total out-of-pocket cost for all of the above phones is a whopping $0.01 U.S. which I paid for my latest Infuse.

here's my experiance:

1. Samsung Flight 2: it was an ok non-smartphone... did java games and web browsing fine. battery lasted for maybe a week at a time if i was lucky :)

2. iPhone 3GS: yeah, i was an iphone noob once upon a time... it got the new ios 5 update when i got it so i was happy. battery lasted for a day, so i was content :) it had the armv7 power, so that meant it wasnt excluded from big new games.

3. iPhone 4: only had it for a short amount of time (again, i used to be in love with iphones), but it impressed me; more specifically its retina screen. battery life was about the same as the 3gs.

4. HTC One X: just got it on Saturday :D been in love with it ever since. my AT&T store didnt have the HOX+, plus it was $100 more on top of a two week wait while it shipped to the store. i've seen lots of work going on with the rooting and roms for this phone, so i decided it would be fine (since its less than a year old still). still awaiting on another method of rooting it on 2.20 without unlocking the bootloader (which i hear also voids your warranty even if you restore it to a stock rom... :/).

its sort of short compared to others, but its all mine :)
[General Topics] Thedoctor03:
My first phone was the HTC Touch - That was so laggy and did not have good app support, plus it required a stylus, it was a pretty bad choice but HTC has done amazing things since then!

Then I moved into a blackberry phase, I started off with the Bold 9000-it was a good phone and I did not have any problems with it but it was unfortunately stolen.

Then I had (until I got a proper replacement) the Curve 8900- the lack of 3g really bugged me.

After this I moved on to the Bold 9700, this also is a fine phone for the Blackberry family but when I was comparing it to other devices I realized how far behind I was, until finally,

I got the SGH i727R, this phone is stellar and I cannot espouse its amazingness enough, the phone and the XDA community are awesome and I don't plan on going anywhere else.

First phone was a Samsung Intensity... Pretty good orange phone with the whole slide out keyboard. Liked it at the time, but after my smartphones I will never go back. Actually gave to my sister cuz she broke hers.... And didn't care :P

Next was a Samsung Galaxy Ace. Bought it for $150 new on Koodo and absolutely loved it. From there, my friend rooted it and introduced me to this amazing community! Flashes at least 15 ROMs on that sucker! Once again, after an upgrade, gave it to my sister... This time I was tentative... Didn't want to watch her drop and destroy it completely.

Anyway, upgraded to my baby. Samsung Galaxy SII X! $300 brand new and rooted it as soon as I got home. Never bothered to flash a ROM until the other day, only to find the wipes in CWM recovery were broken! :-\ anyways, searched around and found the dark side super wipe scripts and flashed my new PACman ROM. First one that ever looked interesting and I have been loving it ever since! :)

Love this phone for sure! Might have to upgrade if a new Sony Xperia Play 2 is released (please be a nexus!) But besides that, I guess I will have to see what new phones Koodo has.

Also never considered myself a Samsung junkie until the apple lawsuit. That's when I knew I was android for life! :D

First phone was an LG Cu400. It was one of the best phones I have ever used. I upgraded to a Samsung Eternity and loved it. Best feature phone I have ever used. Unfortunately it got stolen, but I found the thief and got it back. Next upgrade was a Captivate. Finally a smartphone! It was great until I found XDA. XDA made it better. Now I have a Galaxy S 3 and it is by far the best phone I have ever used.
