Unless they bring something else

One thing that Aple has lost short of was capturing the entire marketplace. It's interesting they afforded and received enough from their target demographics, however they lost probably another 50 billion by not providing a solution outside their demographics. And trust me, both demographics whine and complain about their products and services and blog about it.

It's good to see that people will realize that all those smart wear able devices is merely an option to cause people to want to plug and consume electronic foods so then if they want they can be turned into electronic beings. So at least people will know to keep their minds right about the devices they do really love or like and not get wrapped up in it. And those people who are awake will be the masters over million people, easily, unless of course 7-9 billion people wake up and know to keep themselves leveled and just enjoy their toys. Remember "toys".

I bought a mint GS4 off Craigslist a few weeks ago, with box and everything, for $300. Used it for a week, didn't realize bootloader wasn't unlockable on that software version but rooted it and played with it for awhile. Decided to trade it for a mint One with both and everything when S-Off was released. I S-Off'ed, TWRP and Bonestock ROM right away. It's a great device but I think I'm gonna resell it. While the HTC One is a very nice piece of hardware, it's gonna sit in a case so metal unibody has no benefit to me. Camera quality isn't much better if at all than the GS3. One hand usage for me is a little more difficult as it is taller than the GS3. So for me, keeping the GS3 is a better option right now. There are 6 other family members who use the GS3 so I've been like their tech support. Hopefully 4.3 is released on the GS3 by the end of the year.

I love my One. Absolutely beautiful piece of hardware, love sense, plus I got it for cheap.

opinions anyone ?

i'm on verizon galaxy s3 now

i'm either buying a s4 or note 3 not sure yet

pros or cons ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MartyMacGyver:
I wandered in from the "if money was no object" thread... if I could justify the full price right now, I'd drop my S3 like a hot potato and grab a Note 3 to play around with (oh, how I miss having a proper stylus... and a Wacom digitizer/stylus - that's far and away the #1 selling point for me).

The biggest con is it's a little too large for easy storage in the back pocket. My S3 is fine there and I'm sure the S4 would also be fine, but the Note 3 is a bit too tall for that.

That all said, if a stylus matters, nothing else comes close to the Note 3, IMHO.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NinCaptain:

Well Hello there,

I know many here may not remember me, as I was not as nearly prominent here as I was in the HTC Rezound boards, I just wanted to give a formal goodbye, I have moved from the android crowd to another OS, which i will not name, as to not upset the weak of heart. It was nice posting and converse with you during this period. I will be around here and there, but not as often.

Thanks,

Hank.

Z2 by a landslide.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omair2005:
Yeah I'll be honest, Z2 really impressed me. But I've heard rumors of a premium S5 dubbed Galaxy F series coming in May?

Besides the fingerprint, and camera software, S5 didn't really impress me.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Reznor7:
I really like the Galaxy series' form factor, but the new Knox stuff has me hesitant to even consider the S5 when it comes out. I'll never buy a phone in hopes that it will eventually get unlocked. Honestly, I may just stay a generation behind so I can guarantee to get a phone with an unlocked bootloader from the beginning.

So I've come to the Verizon thread in hopes of help. I own an L710 Virgin Mobile Galaxy S3. I'm looking for Verizon Prl files to possibly flash to my device to get better reception in my area. If anybody knows the latest Verizon Prl on a Verizon sgs3 could you plz point me in the right direction. I've done a search for prl on all the threads here with no luck. Thanks in advance.

DEAL!

I see Verizon is offering new single line plan for $60 that offers unlimited talk and text and 1GB of data, it drops $50 if you purchase a phone on the Edge plan.

So.... I ordered an HTC One M8 for 24.99/month* and got the plan for $50/month for a total of $75/month.

I currently have the "Old Fart's" plan for $30/mo. plus $30/mo for 2GB of data for a total of $60/month.

So..... I'm increasing my minutes from 200 to unlimited, my text from none to unlimited, my data from more than I can ever use** to more than I can ever use and getting a $600 phone for $15/month increase ($360 total for a phone that's $530 or more for used ones on Swappa!) Seems like a GREAT deal to me...

NOTE: This plan is KILLER, if I didn't get a new phone on the EDGE plan I'd pay $60/month and that's what I'm paying now for only 200 minutes, no text and more data than I can ever use!

Is there a downside? Yes, I'll be leaving the Samsung side of XDA and I'll miss the helpful folks and the amazing developers here! Thanks a bunch to all of you! I'm required to turn in my Galaxy S3 as part of the deal.

*First payment is $25.22 to make it come out to $600 for the phone.

**The MOST data I've ever used is less than 500MB since I'm almost always on WiFi, today I'll be off WiFi for probably 40 minutes while driving (no data needed there!) Tomorrow I'll be on WiFi 24 hours.

I'm probably going to upgrade to the SG5 in June when my upgrade is available. My wife used amazon last year to upgrade to the SG3 and somehow managed to keep her grandfathered unlimited plan just like I have. I'm hoping it works the same for me. Anybody else have any luck going through amazon and keeping there unlimited data?

Oppo Find 7, OnePlus One, LG G3, Note 4, Nexus 6

All should be coming out this year, so I'm going to see what the best deal will be. Seems like OnePlus One ($350), Nexus 6, or the Oppo Find 7 if i can find a good deal on it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kidhudi:
all these phones can use verizon?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omair2005:
one plus one can't.. not sure about Oppo. but nexus, lg, note 4 will be supported by Verizon

i'm planning on switching to tmobile or att anyways by the end of the year..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] funnyperson1:
I'd be surprised (and thrilled) if the nexus ran on Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omair2005:
Yeah with Verizon/ATT locking down bootloaders on new phones I'm leaning towards to T-mobile. Currently only the T-mobile Samsung S5 is rooted and unlocked. T-mobile is also refarming all their 2g towers to LTE by end of 2015.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cadarndjg:
I'm seriously considering tmobile or freedom pop. My verizon s3 is still running strong after 2 years and I just upgraded to c-rom kitkat (had been using aokp kitkat which is a mess). Just need to find out if I can use it with freedom pop or tmobile.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omair2005:
You'll get better LTE coverage with Tmobile vs a Tmobile MVNO like freedom pop. So I would go with Tmobile.. Sell your S3, and use that money for a Nexus, or month to month S5 prime, LG G3..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BattsNotIncld:
Anyone take a look at the specs for the G3?

- 3GB RAM

- 32GB on board with microSD slot

- removable 3000mAh battery

- 5.5" display; 2560x1440 pixels; 538ppi

That display is something else. With a cut down bezel it's practically the same size as all the other flagships.

This might be the phone I finally bid farewell to my s3 for.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
That actually sounds like an amazing phone except for the huge ass screen
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BattsNotIncld:
It's still similar in size to all the other flagships due to a very thin bezel.

I'm not into "phablets" either but I'm definitely gonna check it out once it hits the display shelf.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Wow you're right, doesn't actually look so big. May have to play with it in store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Badouken:
Im really interested in the LG G3 when I get my upgrade in August!! I want to see how badly Verizon messes with the phone though... I already know they put their ugly logo on the front but phones like the Galaxy S5 and HTC One m8 dont have that. I also noticed at the store those phones dont have that annoying persistent "connected to wifi notification" in the notifications area... (put they could have not been connected maybe?) I know its not a dealbreaker but Id be extremely annoyed if the LG G3 gets all these unnecessary Verizon "improvements".

Also any new news on the Nexus 6? If it does in fact exist? Also if itll for once work on Verizon.... I know alot of rumors are pointing to no new Nexus phone and it for sure wont be made by LG this time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gorgarath:
My boss wants to upgrade our phones today. I've no idea what is currently out or what's good and I don't really have much time to try and research all the phones. I saw the G3 mentioned and the specs on that look good, but it's not out yet as far as I can see.

I love my S3, but the S4 and S5 are all locked down and I like having access to my hardware and using custom ROMs as they often perform better.

My wife has one of the HTC One variants and it seems pretty nice and from what I understand, HTC provides a way to unlock it so you can use custom ROMs.

So, what seems like the best phone out on VZW today? Prefer something around the size of the S3, maybe a hair bigger, but not much. This is about as big as I want for a phone.

Grabbed the LG g3 last week..Love this phone.. I actually still liked my s3 but man..for the 99 dollar deal? Couldn't pass it up..rooted and customized with xposed a bit but..great phone.definitely
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
You'll enjoy it, looks like a fantastic phone.

Still happy with my M8, but the look of the G3 is pretty eye catching. I really like the thin bezel, really makes it stand out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] GatorsUF:
So I've been holding out and basically ignoring all the other phones on the market (G3, S5, M8) as I was waiting for the MotoX+1. I am still waiting for it but I am bummed to find out recently that the MotoX original has a locked bootloader making custom ROMs unattainable. Apparently this is a common theme for Verizon Motorola devices, I had not clue. I guess I assumed with Moto being a Google company (until lately) that it would be easily unlockable.

Either way I am leaning towards the X+1 since it will likely hold to the MotoX model and be very minimal on skins and will upgrade to the latest version very quickly. I have heard that the G3 is not as locked down and may be unlockable in the near future.

Are there any Verizon Phones that are worth getting which will be unlockable? I really like custom ROMs and it seems they may not be possible on my next phone. I like "Xposed" but I really like the ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kidhudi:
So what new phones do you think will have the best

developing for verizon and the other major carriers?

I was thinking switching carriers to get the nexus 6. Anyone in central nj have an opinion on what carrier is better t mobile or att. I think those carriers will support the nexus.

This for any input

Peace
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Out of newer phones, the HTC one's have the best development because their bootloaders can be unlocked. Even though I think it could be better.

The S5 will probably have good touchwiz rom development for safestrap for a couple years, there's some great devs here. If a bootloader is eventually unlocked it'll probably have the best development.

LG might eventually have a bootloader unlock, but nothing yet. There's lots of talk about a possible exploit but nothing concrete.

Not to sure about Motorola.

Switching carriers for a Nexus 6 wouldn't be a bad option either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Yea I was reading about Nexus and I seriously think VZW is plain stupid for not carrying it on big red, I know they like to have control of everything but I wouldn't mind a nexus device but I seriously don't want to change

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SDQB17:
I have about 2-3 weeks left on my contract with my S3, and then I will be upgrading. Any recommendations would sure be appreciated . I like the LG g3 alot, don't know much about the M8 or whatever moto is the best right now if anyone would like to weigh in or link me to a good shootout.

One other thing, now that my contract is up, I would kinda like to go to T MO, but the only thing holding me back is I am in sacramento, and I mountain bike a lot up in the sierra's where with Verizon service and gps while riding is pretty good, and I hear that TMO in the same area may be a bit spotty. Having gps and service 15 miles from my truck may be worth staying with Verizon. But I would love to go off contract :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Verizon is now offering 4G devices on prepaid something they didn't do before. I've heard good things about the M8 & G3. Bootloader unlock is only really available for the M8 currently. I understand about the service, I don't live near mountains but do travel to rural places and the service is spotty with other carriers

The M8 and the G3 are both solid phones. I don't have either but I've heard good things about both. I'd personally pick the M8

From my Wicked S3 on SOKP
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DigitalMD:
I think the custom ROM thing has pretty much run its course. These days even if you have a unlocked bootloader there only two type of ROMs, CM based and stock based and then people just add or remove various regurgitated features. Cm ROMs don't play well with the advanced hardware extras like finger print, back switches, IR blasters, xtreme res screens, etc. Expect more locked bootloaders not less as corporate use of ANdroid increases I would pick the phone that feels best and looks best and not worry much about bootloaders. All the top phones can be rooted and you can so a lot of customization from there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] RRF12:
I would like to thank all the devs an members here that made my s3 a great an fun phone.I have moved on to the lg g3 an am really enjoying it only thing wish I could get more battery life I was used to zero lemon.Thanks an enjoy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Juice3250:
I'm currently using an iPhone 5S and love the camera but hate the lack of customization. Also love the apps and how smooth this phone is. Zero lag. Was a bit pricey for the 32gb version. I'm going to be on this till 4/2016.

I always have my eye on my next Android phone even though I swore to my wife that I'd never get back into the rooting and flashing roms addiction. But with technology getting better and better, the need to flash roms becomes lesser. I definitely think that rooting is needed.

If I could upgrade today, my first choice would be the Z3V coming to Verizon. But thinking I will probably finish out my 2 years on Verizon ending in August of 2016 and switching over to T-mobile for cheaper rates and the ability to have a nexus or unlocked phones.
