[General Questions and Answers] Mr. Premise:
Quad-core "no-brand" phone - any recommendations?

There are so many 'chinaphones' out there, it's not doable to check them all out - I'd like to hear recommendations for a rootable quad-core phone, preferably with custom ROMs available (this will be my first Android device, so as an Android noob I'll not make an attempt at making a ROM myself anytime soon). Oh, and size matters, 5 inch or less is preferred.

These are some of the phones I've looked at - I'm interested in your experiences with these and/or suggestions of alternatives.

Jiayu G3S - Jiayu seems to be helpful regarding rooting. There are custom ROMs for G3 so I expect there will be for G3S, too (if the G3 ones doesn't work with G3S already).

Jiayu G4 - Interesting if the version with 3000 mAh battery becomes available soonish. I'm sure there will be ROMs shortly.

ThL W8+ - Interesting if the 1.5 GHz version becomes available in June as promised. Custom ROMs are available.

I'm currently having a HTC Desire and I think the time has come to buy a new smartphone. Problem: Which?

So like thousands of others I try to decide: HTC One or Samsung Galaxy S4 (or wait for Nexus 5 [if there's gonna be a N5...])?

Need your help to make a decision, so I got a few question:

Do you recommend a case for a smartphone like those two? (If a case is really helpful the look and feel of the HTC One isn't a crucial argument, since the S4 looks ugly for me, but has some nice cases)

Which phone has or will have the greater support from the "developer community"?

When the Galaxy S4 Google Edition arrives: Will it be possible to flash a ROM to make every S4 like a "S4 Google Edition"?

When do u think will the next Nexus come out? So: Wait or not wait?
[General Questions and Answers] nikufellow:
Most of your queries are subjective

*will you put a cover over one or s4

I personally favour one and if i had one i would never hide the beauty beneath any sort of covering

*which one will have more developer support

Nobody can tell that with a reliable degree of accuracy at this point of time but both are sure have excellent support from community so you can't go wrong choosing either one

*can roms be flashed interchangeably

Yes, theoretically its possible especially if there are no hardware differences between both variants of s4 but until it becomes widely available and people start testing nothing can be said for sure
[General Questions and Answers] Shahan_mik3:
I think u must have read 3rd question wrong...

He asked if it is possible to make normal s4 as Google s4 not flash ROM interchangeably :what::what:

---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 PM ----------

*I highly doubt Nexus 5 anytime soon as s4 GE will be sold on plays tore from Aug possibly with 4.3

*One is a beauty u don't need a case anyways if it falls down.... Dents are formed which is too irritating... S4 is ugly but strong

*both have great support.... Even though I think s4 support will be more in future as it is released recently and it is samsung flagship so no worries about the support!(but due to exynos source code not being available it might be hard for developer if snapdragon version then no issues) ....... U can make a s4 look like s4GE but u won't get updates from Google which is the main point of s4GE
[General Questions and Answers] nikufellow:
^i didn't read it wrong i was just framing the question myself to make it shorter and easier to type that might not have been the correct choice of words but still i believe i made sense. What he actually asked and i answered to is whether its possible to flash the vanilla android rom from Google s4 to the normal ones to get a stock android experience similar to that on google one when it launches
[General Questions and Answers] Thug_4_Life:
Coming from a One XL user.

I'm in a dilemma of purchasing One or waiting for a new flagship. I'm in love with the One's design and front dual speakers, but not so much with the 2 capacitive buttons and the bazel. I believe that the capacitive buttons can be a huge pain for me.

Should I just go for the One or wait for a "possibly" improved one?

Pls help respectable xda members!

[General Questions and Answers] nikufellow:
I wouldn't really suggest waiting because always something new keeps coming up and there is no guarantee that the future flagship you are waiting for will fill in all your ambitions. Atleast knowing the stubborn HTC design paradigm i don't think they'll get rid of those capacitive buttons anytime in near future. IMO get One and be happy.

next phone

Hey everyone looking to buy a new phone (aren't we all) at the moment i have the sgs i9000 which has been a great phone for me over the last 2 and half years. I listen to a lot of music, play moderate games like jetpack joyride and i am always flashing custom roms. I am looking for a phone to do all the same stuff but need a battery that can a last a day without charge on moderate to heavy use mostly on wifi. If I can cut out the need to flash custom roms by just having a great stock phone than fine but lets be honest i'll probably flash the hell out of it as i think i am a flashoholic. lol I should also mention that i live in canada and will be purchasing and using the phone on the bell network here. I encourage all responses from everyone bad or good on phone choices. Thanks everyone!!

edit- Let's say monetary carries no weight here!

[General Questions and Answers] bambam1978:
So the nexus 4 is obviously better than the S3 seeing as its newer and has more RAM and a better CPU but I've heard the battery isn't that good and although perfect for flashing and 3d gaming what about sound as I listen to a lot music. I should also mention that I use WiFi more and do a lot of web surfing YouTube watching so screen on time (great battery) is also very important. Thanks for your thoughts though I will research more on the nexus 4 any more ideas anyone.

Got my s2 two years ago and still love it. Ive been doing research on and off over the last month or so as I would do every upgrade and I am certainly not knocking the iphone and it is on my shortlist. I slated it before but have learnt that I cant knock the device til I try it out. Not cinvinced of the BB Z10 anymore, I tried to convince myself it was good but swinging in the direction of apple between the 2. I naturally sway towards the s3 given that ive liked my s2 so that is on the list as a maybe.

Loving my s2 at the moment and will continue to use this rom until upgrade time :)

What does also make me lean to iphone is that tapatalk & football manager are available. Hoping a screen dimming app is also available. I need Tapatalk in my life! I get to help you lovely people and still have a connection to the Android community. Thats important!

If I do remain with android im not sure if I should go over to htc one x plus or stick with samsung and go with an s3. I love it when upgrade time comes around but it doesnt come round often enough!

Serious research needed over next two months :)

I'm looking for a cheap, unlocked/unlockable Android phone for two purposes:

-my wife (low end user) needs a new phone (Canadian Bell)

-to play with a rooted phone

I'm looking for a CHEAP android to do this. I've bought some jerseys in the past from DHGate, happy with that, and went there to look.

They have a STAR B930 that pretty much looks like it fits the bill.

http://www.dhgate.com/i9300-android-...64.html#s1-1-1

I'm aware of the scam potential here, and am willing to donate the $75 if need be.

Is there another option for a $100 cheap but updated Android option that will work with my carrier? I've unlocked an SIII before, but my hack knowledge if quite limited.

Any and all suggestions/comments are welcome.

Has anyone had any experience with this phone? Is there an alternative that would suit my needs and work with Bell?

Also another option worth considering is lg l9 its slightly inferior to l in specs but has more than decent dev support along with official cm builds.

I don't think they make a good $150 phone yet. Considering u pay thousands over for your cell service, I think its poor value to try to save $150 but get much inferior mobile experiences

I've been using the nexus 4, and the HTC one. I actually prefer the n4, for $300 its a no brainer. However the 8gb model only offers about 5gb storage space. It works on tmobiles 1700 though. Get the 16gb model if you like loading up your device with music or movies

Ur suggestions under this budget ??

PS~ Nexus 4(25.9k as if its not 26k lol ) is also out of my budget + has Limited storage (8gb with no card slot what do i do of that)

And a few sites who sell it for a lower price (Saw it for 24.5k 16gb model) give "Seller warranty of 6 months" and not "Manufacturer Warranty "

and That illumination bar of SP is way too tempting for me (to show off to my friends u know :cool:)
