Of course it is better than Samsung,

Ok, for the design I agree with you, but the battery just 1305.

---------- Post added at 09:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 PM ----------

I am an android hardcore user and gamer.

1. I need phone under 350$. (under 4m indonesian rupiahs)

2. Really has multitouch. (if you know what I mean)

3. Fast (for heavy gaming).

4. Has secondary camera.

Accoding to my opinion, they are:

1. Xperia Play

2. Xperia P

3. Xperia neo L

4. Galaxy S Advance

5. LG Optimus 3D

Which one is the best or do you have any suggests?

[General Questions and Answers] N4R4Y4N:
I kinda narrowed down my list of possible phones to 2 brands

1)HTC

2)Nokia

Too bad noone was able to help me before, i hope that maybe now, with less choices on the table, you can help me with the decision.

What i need:

- Wp 7 device

- 3.8+ screen (possibly scratch resistant)

- possibly white

- average specs

What i don't need:

- camera...just don't care

- storage...8gb is enough

- spending more than 200$...cos that's the actual value of a Desire HD I believe...

- new device...used one is more of an option

I got some choices right now that should be all in the range of 200$ more or less...and every device have a decent support here on xda regarding roms and root procedures.

1) HTC HD7 (pretty old but tbh almost old as the desire hd, so, it gets on the list

2) HTC Radar (sweet white phone with decent specs...on the list)

3) HTC Titan (super-sweet as i like big screen smartphones...cost is still kinda high tho)

4) Nokia Lumia 800 (seems nice but not all reviews are great for this device, plus comes in white)

5) Nokia Lumia 900 (white, big, fat...same downside as the Titan)

6) Nokia Lumia 610 (white, great look, but feels a little cheapy...maybe not the best even on the hardware side...but cheap as hell)

Suggestions?

Oh the s2 is unlocked and the xperia s is orange locked

Looking for a tablet

Afternoon all,

After lurking here for ages and using the info for the gear I had, I've reached a problem that actually requires me to post. Here goes;

Had a N1, got stolen. Replaced it with a AT&T Samsung GS2. Rooted it. End up smashing the display (the actual Glass over it is fine. Go figure)

So, I'm on the hunt for a phone and settled on the SG3 (which I have yet to purchase but given what I know about the current market, I've decided for that so far.)

Flash forward a few weeks, and I find myself with a need for a tablet. I'll give you the uses first, and my requirements after. Some are negotiable, some are not. I'll annotate which.

Uses:

Browsing the Web in the house, some light gaming, heavy media consumption ( Netflix and music, as well as ripped and recoded DVDs i own while RAM mounted to a road bike on a trainer)

Requirements:

Android (no Apple period).

16 or 32 GB onboard storage. (Negotiable).

As much system (OS) memory as possible (Negotiable).

MicroSD slot (Non-Negotiable)

No propriatory connectors (non-negotiable unless absolutely impossible due to something like power).

10 inch HD display (negotiable downwards, but it would take compelling specs elsewhere to do so).

3g AT&t sim slot (just as gravy, not a deal breaker in the least)

XDA development friendly (Doesn't necessarily need an active dev, though I would like that, but the manufacturer should not be hostile to the developer community)

I know this is pretty specific, and probably to tall an order for manufacturers to fill, but I wanted to give you as much info as I could.

Questions, comments or recommendations welcome.

Celtish

What device?

I'm due for a new phone this coming January, some really great phones are out there.

my question is, that if I already know I'm going to root my phone and use some version of AOSP, do I just pick the phone with the best internal specs?

or do I pick a common phone because i know there will be a lot of development for it?

really just wondering if it's just the internal specs that matter or does the version of android skin also matter?

any help on the matter is appreciated.

I'm looking forward to get either an S4 (i337 or i9505) or S4 Active (i337) but, I'd like to know more about them in terms of how easy will it be for me to mess around with them., so:

What's the current status of both phones in terms of the stuff people come to XDA for? e.g. rooting, custom ROMs, kernels, etc.

Looking into the future, what are the expectations for both phones? Will they have a trhiving community because everyone has the phone and loves it? Will it die because of a dwindling interest and other obstacles? (like Knox)

EDIT: Also, are the i337 and i9505 the same phone?.

Which things (besides the obvious things that are included in the specs) would I lose/gain with either phone?

---------- Post added at 08:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:16 PM ----------

If you are getting a dual sim version 4 lets say 87-92% of the original price it's worth a take.. you see the only difference in G2 and S4 mini is the screen size, the camera and the 0.5 gb less ram.. compared to the prices it's worth a compromise!:good:
[General Questions and Answers] ruckstande:
But the regular Galaxy S4 is still the superior phone correct? I'm only asking all of this because I had no intention of getting my wife a new phone until today and know nothing about what available from Sprint.
[General Questions and Answers] abdel12345:
Actually I think the g2 is superior. The moto x is probably easiest to root but they should all be pretty easy. The g2 will have KitKat soon while the s4 still has a while to wait (I think until January). Also touchwiz slows the phone down a lot. The moto probably has the best software and the g2 would be my choice though if I had to choose one of those three

Please explain how, compared to Xperia TX, a Dual core & 2012 release phone which possibly will only see 4.3 officially at max, N4 & Moto G, which are directly affiliated to Google and will definitely receive 2-3 major updates and are Quad cored with performances equaling Galaxy S4, at a price lower & much lower (in case of Moto G), crap?
[General Questions and Answers] Gothik:
HAH!. Here we go.

Same old preteen way of summing up your needs. Oh man!, octa core!. Nice!. I have a bigger peen now.

Oh man, 2012?. That is so old. Better get a 2013 (crappy) release than a (good) 2012 release.

Don't really need to answer any of your question after what you wrote and the way you make your choice(s).

Already getting the TX and just for the record, If I actually had to buy these no mem card slot, 'closed minded' cellphones, I would buy HTC One in a heart beat regardless of my utter hate for HTC and the OS that resides in it.
[General Questions and Answers] vj_dustin:
You got me wrong, I'm not a benchmark fan of any sorts nor do I judge devices on release date basis.

(I myself bought a 2 year old device, the Galaxy S2, this March, since no other device was giving equal value for money at that time, Nexus 4 had been kept from launch for almost 4 months, so I just skipped it at that time)

I always look for the best value for money.

And a device with promising future updates and better performance would definitely be my first preference over an older device that is costlier than it and is seeing it's last official update.

Custom world aside, no one would deny that Official stocks are the best!

About the limited memory, personally 16GB is enough for me, you can even get the 32GB variant though, but since you never mentioned it as a requirement, I didn't take it into consideration while recommending!

Anyways, congrats on your TX!
[General Questions and Answers] Gothik:
Sony is one company that is throwing or IMO spamming the market with all kinds of Android cellphones so I dont expect them to give support for any for a long time.

Now the thing is, I dont care. What is this community for?. Last but not least, cyanogen comes up in my mind.

Plus, jelly bean killed flash. (Adobe) Flash works in ICS. You have any answer for that?. I already wrote that I dont care about Kit Kat and the last JB is supported by this.

The whole package of TX is much nicer closely (+100$ more) followed by GS3. Everything else in that range is laughable. Why would I buy something that restricts me?. All these Nexus phones are a huge FAD!.

Nex 5= 492$.

Nex 4= 326$

GS3= 423$.

XTX= 313$.

XSP= 303$.

Hi, I'm looking to buy a phone soon and only really have two choices, The Nexus 5 or the Xperia Z1. They are both on contract for the same price with my carrier (Telstra) here in Australia, $69 a month for 24 months, and I don't have the choice to buy anything outright. I am leaning towards the Xperia Z1 because of the waterproofing , SD card and camera and I'm worried about the Nexus losing one of its only advantages of quick updates with the carrier. I'm stuck between the two still though. Also, is there any reason to upgrade at all now seeing as the phones with the Snapdragon 805 will come out some time soon, and are there enough advantages with it to warrant waiting a few more months seeing as I'm really frustrated with my current phone being so slow.
