[General Questions and Answers] shadowcore:
You seem like somebody who does not know the difference between iOS and Android and also you claim that you cracked or damaged your phones for less than 1 year. Build quality is different among android OEMs and things have improved since then. I suggest you buy the HTC One or the samsung Galaxy S4 or Sony's flagship phones.

My sister has an iPhone and we dont live in the US, so if you live in the US and the ridiculous controlled nature of iOS is no concern for you, pricing is not and so on, get it.

Personally, I would never give more than 300 euro for an iphone.

Go watch some video comparisons, see that the iphone does not have HD screens, removable batteries and so on. But if you still insist on getting an iphone, buy it used. Dont be stupid to give $700 to a thing that has more shine and marketing in its name than it has anything amaizing to offer.

Windows phones do also look interesting, particularly the Nokia 808. Get anything but an iPhone. iOS7 looks good but all the features of iOS7 have been so long around, it makes iOS7 just a marketing move from apple.
[General Questions and Answers] Mont4n4:
As fine as an iPhone is, you should rather be picking up another Android phone again, because you may have downloaded quite some apps in the past. Thats one of the reasons why iPhone users find it pretty hard to change to an Android after using iOS a couple of years. They've paid for apps so they dont want to lose them just by going to another OS.

An iPhone also doesnt guarantee you that you dont drop it by accident and then breaks. But in the end you decide, as this is just my opinion. Ask a friend if he has an iPhone and if he could lend it to you for a week or so, so that you can gain your very own experience in the world of Apple.
[General Questions and Answers] mfelten86:
I had an iphone for about a year and loved it when i could jailbreak it, but once they patched up 6.1.3 it was back to normal and i hated it. its more for show. i got the s4 recently and when its stock it is like a jailbroken iphone, when i rooted it my mind was blown with how much i could do. plus the screen is better, it is faster, and a lot more customization. the htc one has a better screen than both and a great camera, but neither the iphone or htc one have gestures and they aren't as nice all around. the screen is a little smaller too. but if you think you need a strong phone the htc has a metal frame, but you can get a case for the s4 and it will be just as good.
[General Questions and Answers] nathan96:
Thanks for the answers ! The thing is, that i really don't need nor want the gestures, the octa-core proccessor, ect ect...Just something good, that JUST WORKS like new all the time. I will use it for browsing, social apps and music (maybe streaming movies from my BOX account).

IPhone are expenssive here in israel. Iphone 4S like a 100$ less then a galaxy S4 and that's why im not sure. and HTC one and iphone 5 cost the same.

I need that phone for at least 3-4 years since im going to serve in the army for 3 years and army pay check is tiny :)
[General Questions and Answers] H3llwar:
If you need a phone that is durable, get the xperia z.
[General Questions and Answers] nathan96:
Don't like sony, and moto phones are very rare in israel.

I'd rather ger an S4 or and iphone 4S, and i cant decide.
[General Questions and Answers] Glen:
I would get an Iphone 5 if I were you.

it is proven that Iphone build quality is the best.
[General Questions and Answers] nathan96:
Thanks for the reply ! And yes, that's what people say, but nothing is really proven.

What are you basing your statement on ?
[General Questions and Answers] apache04:
go for iPhone.. (any model)

As u say i need the most durable one.. then iPhone is best... I've used both S4 and iphone.. and to my bad luck... i have also experienced dropping them both... my iPhone 4S doesnt even feel the shock but the s4 is now at the service centre... REMEBER! features are always best in Samsung.. but long life comes as guarantee with Apple! If u lookin for Htc.. it has a metallic frame but still i would prefer apple
[General Questions and Answers] Glen:
yes it is proven.. :D see this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRQkH1GHJ3Y
[General Questions and Answers] nathan96:
That does not prove anything :)

That only shows which one is more fragile but build quality is also the quality of the construction (how they got all the parts together) and the quality of the parts. And SGS4 has a thicker screen and plastic back, so its obvious :)

But thanks !

I'm probably gonna get and iphone 4S or 5.
[General Questions and Answers] snowbrder87:
htc one

I was a long time iphone user. a few months ago I switched to the nexus 4 and loved it. I sold it and bought the htc one when that came out. Now I just about ready to flash the google edition rom. I love the htc one. Its great with sense, but Im sure ill like it even more with stock android. The process seems really easy. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2341395 Go with the htc, youll love it.
[General Questions and Answers] Glen:
Of course it is some of the proof that the build quality between sgs4 and iphone 5, i5 have more advantages.

sure, thicker screen but more fragile than iphone 5.

IMO, comparison between 2 OSes, iOS is better than Android. (i5, dual core only & sgs4 octa core/quad core, but iOS is smoother) :D

How about a nexus 4 just bought a white one amazing build quality for a great price and apple doesn't even have HD screens stick to an Android
[General Questions and Answers] rampo:
I've an HTC One. It's my best buy ever.

I think iPhone it's the best phone, but I've never bought it because it's not funnny.

As you know, the best thing of Android it's the possibility to install custom ROMs.

[General Questions and Answers] chargersrool:
I have a Samsun Galaxy S2 SPH-d710 running ICS 4.0.4 and I cant seem to find out whether the problem is the usb port, or the software?

Problems:

Android OS is running at 33%+

Battery drains fast at times, and charges slow.

If I move the usb cord a tiny bit, the charging stops and starts, repeatedly.

My PC cant find the device.

What I did to try to fix it:

Deleted all irrelevant apps

Factory reset the device

Moved the little pin in the USB port up towards the screen

After I tried all of this, the device was fine but the charging still was bad, I still get bad connection within the usb port (when i wiggle the cable it connects briefly or doesnt connect at all)

I called and explained the question to a cell phone repair shop and they said it sounded like a port problem and could be fixed within an hour and charged $55. Good or bad deal? I see higher rates elsewhere.

Every time when there's another new ROM I like to test it and share my comments, but I have passed for bricks that I didn't know how to restore. With ICS you can't.

All you need to do is install the LG Drivers for our phone from LG Website and search for the KDZ Updater. When you are ready retire the battery and re-insert it. Press the Volume - (down) button while you're connecting your phone via USB. Flash your original KDZ of your country and operator. Maybe your phone now don't turn on, and for that you have to flash any KDZ with a CWM installed (of course, already rooted) and search for the stock kernel from JB (if you want it ask me for him, I''ve wrote this from my phone). Flash it via recovery with CWM doing all the wipes before flashing and you can see after you reboot your phone how it turns on again.

Reply your doubts to try to solve it.

NOTE: I will post some links when I take the PC.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AkifMehmood:
I had just successfully rooted my xperia play r800i and was installing CWM. After the installation was successful, I unplugged the phone as Flashtools said but it won't start. Now it's not even being detected by Flashtools. It is being detected by my laptop only with the beep sound and nothing else.

Also my battery was around 20% while I was flashing so maybe that had something to do with it.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Precisely. What version of TWRP are you using currently? If its the latest (2.5.0.0), I'll bet this is the problem.

TWRP 2.3 seems to be the most stable version. I believe 2.3.1.1 is what you want. If you look through the TWRP thread, there are some folks that have posted links to this older version.

---------- Post added at 12:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------

Since you are s-off, you don't need to relock the bootloader.

---------- Post added at 12:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------

HTC security can be a pain. But they aren't the only manufacturer with security measures. Every Android device is different. Don't blame the device. Learn, adapt and conquer.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flyingriffin:
If you have s-off you should be able to flash RUUs to your heart's content, recovery has nothing to do with it. You can try the other twrp by flashing it in fastboot then try flashing the rom again, or try another rom after transferring it in recovery
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:

Ok guys thanks for the suggestions...

Yeah i was using TWRP 2.5.0.0...

I had no other choice but to go for RUU...But first i did relock the bootloader & then went for the RUU..

Whole process went smoothly & i got the phone booted up fine..Today i learnt a lesson..Never ever flash anything without doing a backup first..

Yeah i know..I had Desire HD once & i dont wanna think about how i rooted it lol.& today i got stuck in another Htc device..Well it was my mistake in the first place because i forgot to take a backup of stock Rom..

Anyways i wana ask something else now..i used fastboot oem lock command to relock the bootloader..Now how to unlock it again?

htcdev method?I already have the Unlock_code file..

Also now can i flash 4.1.1 RUU this time?Right now i am on 4.0.4..

Thanks guys once again..All of you really were of great help..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] snak3ater:
Okay i can unlock it again using this command 'fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin'
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
I don't recall the exact syntax. But you can reuse the unlock token, with the same fastboot command you unlocked with originally.

---------- Post added at 02:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:27 PM ----------

Why? Did you try to just flash TWRP 2.3.1.1 (or newest CWM) then re-flash the ROM as previously recommended?

Yes.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] snak3ater:
No..Actually i just pressed my panic button & went directly for the RUU without wasting any time :silly:

Left the recovery as it was :D

If it was the recovery issue then so sad..Ive been using Twrp in Nexus 4 without any issues..I wonder why it gave me trouble here..
