So I'm stuck with this brick piece of shit until I get paid. I'm a poorfag so I'm probably not going to get anything fancy.

>>54474666

>>54474666
I have the Moto G2 and it was the same for me, it's better after the hard reset tho.
Today, I went to shop to see some phones for real, isntead of looking at pics. My main direction was Xperia devices, but I stumbled upon HTC M9. And oh God was it amazing. Literally blew my mind.
>Solid metal build quality
>Beautiful, premium design
>Amazing fit in one hand
>Beautiful sharp, crisp, colorful screen
>Blazingly fast UI and windows animations
>Beautiful, clean looking UI
>Fast focusing camera
>Quite beautiful camera shots (seen better for this price, but I'm not a pro-photographer)
>Quite fast in app opening
>>54475376
Too bad it's still a 5' and the battery could be better.
>>54473814
xiaomi
check out /csg/ thread for help
>>54475376
the htc phones look nice, but the m8 and m9 are so gigantic, I'd prefer a smaller phone tbqh. I'll probably go for the z5c on xda they are already working on a cm rom.
>z3c gets update
>apps playing no longer appear on lock screen
how do you fuck up these things?
>>54475494
6.0.1 OTA? what do you mean by apps playing?
>>54475376
Get the m8 I say. It has better battery life and more rom development.
>>54475376
Too bad it's using housefire SoC.
Sony Xperia Z5 seems like the best option atm. It has everything 6P and Note 5 have, but its just better design. Maybe I'm wrong.
>>54475547
Yeah, I mean when playing music/podcast or casting something there used to be a mini-player on the lock screen so you didn't need to enter said app to pause or play. Now it just isn't there half the time.
>>54475549
Would you recommend M8 or M8s?
>>54475376
It's honestly a good phone, too bad the hatewagon shat on it.
Also, Its camera shits the bed in conditions with less-than-ideal lighting.
>>54475700
Regular m8,
#1 rule of android: never get a "spin-off" phone if you're into custom roms. Get nexuses or mainline flagships.
>>54475732
What if I want to have it stock? I feel like M8s is better because it's more fresh and up-to-date.
>Huawei Honor 7
Paid it 280€, coming from a galaxy s5 that was really starting to piss me off for how much I hated touchwiz
Pros:
>phone looks solid and build quality is really nice unlike the S5
>fingerprint sensor is rear placed and insanely fast
>UI is nice, currently on miui 4.0 (Android 6.01), they even reduced the navbar
>has an additional button you can bind to any action, you can even do different actions by double pressing, long press, single press
>RAM usage is actually really good, I never filled more than 2/3 gigs
>expandable storage
Cons:
>camera takes good detailed photos but colors are washed up
>battery life not as good as it was in 5.0
>auto brightness values are too low and I find myself using manual brightness often
>difficult to root
>no roms except for stock
Honestly it's a really good phone for the price
>>54473406
Nova tends to be faster and easier on system resources, as well as allowing you to customize the grid size and icons. Just don't get caught in the 'ricing' shit as it's completely pointless.

Get the m8 anyway. The snapdragon 615 in the m8s barely keeps up with basic tasks. The m8 may be dated but it's rocking a snapdragon 801, still a perfectly viable soc today.

>>54476771
>>54476806
Thanks. What makes the note 6 so special in comparison with the s7?.
My knowledge of the android world is limited
>>54475966
There are about 10 different variants of the S5. I'd recommend figuring out which one you have and going to device specific forums and asking there.
Convince me to buy a redmeme note 3 pro for $200 when my replacement is up and I can get an S7/S7 Edge for ~$200.
>>54476858
It'll have all the features samsung has to offer (i.e. s-pen) except edge features. It will also be a beast with android N, 6gb ram and up to 256gb rom
>>54477433
S7 is better. redmeme is for poorfags. MiUi is 10x more cancerous than touchwizz.
>>54477433
You're comparing a $700 phone with a $200 phone. If you can get the Samsung at that price, by all means go for it.
Any free sim unlock codes available that work?
>>54477688
>>54477761
Well in that case is there any phone better than the S7/edge or verizon and even then between the regular and edge.
>>54478136
HTC 10 is decent alternative. edge if you prefer bigger screens, otherwise it's just a gimmick.
>>54478198
Not interested in a big screen or phablet really, I just want whatever has the best battery life and has the wireless charging so I can quit breaking shitty micro usb charging ports.
The edge just seemed good since it was waterproof, had wireless charging and good battery life. Something I could put cyanogen on now or in the future would be a plus too.
>>54478227
Go for it, it's a great phone.
I bought a second hand S4 and it's great, but it asked me for my google account and now it doesn't ask for my password when I want to access gmail. How can I make it ask for the password instead of automatically logging in?
Does iOS still have the modulable vibration? On stock android I'm stuck with this fuckin noisy vibration, and there's no way to make it not sound like a damn MIG is flying over my house

Thank god.
>being able to regulate your vibration without having to lose warranty
Not pro-Android very much.
So the new Android security update is out and I'm seizing the opportunity to completely wipe my phone and set it up again.
I flashed the factory image and encrypted it. Now, can I flash a custom recovery (TWRP 3.0.2 to be precise) without fucking up the encryption? Or do I flash the custom recovery (and maybe root tool) BEFORE encrypting? Sorry, I'm new to this.
Help me decide what chinkphone to get sempais. I'm torn between the redmi 3 pro or the redmi 3 note pro 16/2gb version. I can get either for about the same price. The note 3 abviously has a better screen and processor, but one gb ram less and probably a bit worse battery life. It's also slightly larger, but not overly so compared to the regular redmi. I'm mostly concerned that 2gb might not be enough, though I have to say that I'm not into mobile 3d gaming or anything. Mostly just browsing and watching vietnamese basket weaving videos. Wat do?
>>54478887
R3 Is enough for casual use. only get the note if you want bigger screen and 1080p.
>>54478906
Does the regular redmi 3 get about the same level of ipdate/rom support? I don't need any speshul pajeet roms, probably just going to stick to MIUI since I'm a huge casual when it comes to smartphones.
>>54478922
You can flash the global ROM or xiaomi.eu ROM after you get bootloader unlock code.
>ASUS Ze fone 2 Laser

Overall i am very happy with it, but i do have a couple complaints
>"Home" button is super close to the spacebar on he keyboard. Easy misclick
>Sometimes the keyboard stays up while the screen ia locked. Not sure if this is an Android problem or ASUS's custom ZenUI problem
9/10, would consider the product line again in the future
>>54478946
So it does have a global/eu ROM, that's nice. I tried looking over the forums but half the posts were in horrible broken english and the other half couldn't seem to agree if there was one or not. Anything specific I need to write when requesting the unlock?
>>54477653
Great, I'm gonna wait then.
>>54479021
Say your'e a developer in need of an unlocked bootloader and that should do it.
>>54479057
allright, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for your help, sempai.

So my employer is buying me a phone of my choosing for work, and I wanted to know what is recommended as far as Android goes. Right now I have a Moto X and it's alright, but the battery life is killing me. Last phone I had was an S3. Everything I read is "Galaxy S7/S7 Edge!" But I don't know how good they actually ARE.
>>54479481
What for?
>>54480224
Galaxy S7/E is top dog in Samsung's line-up. And probably the best out there at the moment.
>>54480367
Roger that. Is the Edge "better" than the 7, or is it just the gimmicky sidebar thing?
To cut my story short, does the mozilla for firefox have some kind of pop-up/ad blocker. I'm sick of those YOUR PHONE HAS BEEN INFECTED pop ups and crap like that.
Related to that, should I ever worry about that stuff? I don't see it often, but does it pose any real danger?
>>54480437
the edge sidebar is a little gimmicky, I barely use it on my s6+, but if your work is paying for it, FUCK IT!

Not sure if I should go with an M9 when I can upgrade my contract or something else entirely. After the piece of shit that was the Galaxy S3 I don't think I wanna touch another Samsung phone. Anyone got recommendations?
My company just gave me this one. Is it good? It's my first smartphone.
>>54480437
Edge is a meme, it adds mostly "dem aesthetics", but not much more. Added Edge functionality in Touchwizz allows some more multitasking, but I don't know if that is really that useful. Nevertheless, if I was getting it for free, of course I'd get Edge. It looks glorious.
>>54480504
Please see
>>54475376
M9 is really a fucking great phone. I'd get it nonetheless, especially considering the dropped price.
>>54480351
The root access?
Manly to use Xposed to remap some keys, uninstall all that Samsung bloatware and some IApps.
>>54481002
Follow-up: will it be hard to find a case for an S7 Edge that protects it well without killing the Edge functionality? If I'm gonna slap it in a case, should I just get a regular 7?
>>54480673
>If it's the 8GB version it's shit because you only have 1GB free to use
>>54480673
It's good if it's free. But absolute shit if you were to pay money for it. It's premium brand phone with very low value, expect a fucking chaos in it. Heared on forums from Indians that their M4 Aquas overheat like shit (I doubt it uses Snapdragon 810). Also back and front are all made of glass that is glued to the inner frame of a phone. Constant heating up will loosen up the glue and glass probably end up falling apart which breaks easily on contact with concrete. And M4 Aqua is overall shit, M5 is better option just for a bit more shekels.
>>54481054
>Will it be hard to find a case for an S7 Edge that protects it well without killing the Edge functionality?
No idea. Chinks may think of some magic and may manufacture one. Look up on Samsung's official site what they're offering as extra accessories for Edge.
>If I'm gonna slap it in a case, should I just get a regular 7?
Yes, especially if you're so paranoid of breaking your phone get basic 7, because I guess the screen replacement might be quite expensive in Edge.
Some anon said that his gf or whoever the fuck, couldn't even put screen protector because it doesnt stick to the sides.
I have the option of getting either the S7 Edge or the Z5 for $400 each. Any of you anons prefer one over the over?
>>54473707
It's $160
>>54480461
Root phone, install AdAway.
Still have a Galaxy S3, shopping for a new phone right now. Should I just wait for the Oneplus 3 to come out?
All I really use my phone for is browsing the web and these seem to be priced pretty reasonably priced. I hate spending money on phones.

>using a cell phone
Here's your reminder that if you own a cell phone then you might as well let the government install a telescreen in your home.
>the NSA actively collects bulk metadata on cell phone connections to cell towers and stores it for months at a time in their FASCIA database, allowing them to look you up in their database and see a map of your travel habits, they also now give all other 3 letter agencies access to this data
>in all cell phones with only a couple exceptions (such as the Blackphone and Neo900) the baseband processor, which controls the cell phone's connection to the cell tower, has complete access to the phone's main CPU and RAM, allowing complete back door access to your cell phone with simple exploits which are easy for the government to develop because they can request the baseband firmware from companies for a security audit
>police departments regularly deploy stingrays for tracking cell phones and their owners
>but how do I keep in contact with people without a cell phone
Cell service providers in the US allow you to email to a phone number for SMS (just email the phone number at the service provider's address, ie [email protected] for AT&T or [email protected] for Verizon, make sure to keep your messages inside the 140/160 character limit) and text to email addresses (just enter the email address you wish to text to instead of a phone number) for no additional cost. For calling, a home phone with modern VOIP service can be had for under $10 a month if you look.

Hey Smartphonefags, I have a dilemma. My first phone was a 4s right around the time the iPhone 5 was coming out and it was free on contract. By the time I upgraded, my lock button had become stuck and it felt like it had slowed to a crawl. I also didn't have a PC at the time, so I upgraded to a Galaxy s5 for its ease of downloading, larger size, Snapchat third party apps, and better battery life. Here I am near the end of my next contract and this damn thing refuses to update and is impossible to keep clear of extra junk. On top of that, replacing the battery is just as difficult in a Galaxy now.
I also really miss iMessage because my local tower shit and I spend a lot of time in dead zones. And Facebook messager isn't super reliable.
My main question is whether the s7 or iPhone 7 is going to have the better longevity and which has improved the most over the last three or for years. Should I maybe go for the next note or the newest htc instead?
>>54489620
>better longevity
you are asking the one thing literally no one can speak on, especially since one of them isn't released yet.
>>54489852
Sorry, I mean just based off of how models later than the two I have experience with are aging so far, even though it might not be the best indicator of how the latest versions will age. I'm thinking about buying a used 5s or 6 to make sure I can handle going back to Apple before I drop a thousand dollars on a phone I'll probably use for several years.

It's shit. I've had one for 6 months. Battery life is average at best, it randomly gets super fucking hot with light usage (I pretty much only use the browser and messaging apps).
That being said it has a fantastic screen and build quality. Waterproof feature is fantastic. I would not recommend though.
>>54491263
Also, part of the reasons I got it was for the unlockable bootloader and custom roms...
After all this time there's fuck all available. On top of that my cunting service provider still hasn't released the 6.0.1 update. Last time I buy a Sony phone and last time I get a phone on a contract.

They are working on a cm ROM though.
And Sony usually allows you to unlock the bootloader.

>not buying an oukitel k6000 pro instead
>170 usd
>1080p
>3GB Ram
>6000mAh battery
The fuck kinda chink phones are you looking at?
If I wanted a 720p phone, I wouldn't spend $100-$200, the k4000 pro is only 90usd, or the c3 which is only 40usd.
It's shit in a small package. Somehow it manages to get shittier and slower as time goes on.
Motorola call quality is a meme.
Paid 1 cent for a jew year contract.
Don't know what to buy next
Convince me to not get a 1080p,4gb zintel zenfone for 180 ? Can anything compete ? Note 3 pro looks overpriced

CMON
I just got an LG G3 for $200, it's in awesome condition and feels smooth, but my proximity sensor seems to be over active.. If the room is dark, the phone thinks it is in a pocket and the screen won't turn on no matter if I tap or press the power button. Does anyone know a fix for this shit?
My grandfather wants a smartphone. He tells me he wants the Samsung Galaxy IPhone 6S because it's bigger than his Blackberry.
What do?
>>54491368
Does this work with t-mobile and in Europe? I'm a poor and bb has this for 50USD. GSMarena specs aren't specific for this one.
>>54489561
Get a 6 plus. I have the 6 plus and 6s plus and other than the gay ass 3D touch, there's no difference. In daily use the A9 and 2GB is no different than the A8 with 1GB. If you're worried about screen size, get a 5s. The SE is a fucking meme.
>>54489620
If you haven't used iOS 7 and above, you'll probably hate it. I suggest a Nexus 6P.
I bought an HTC 10 less then 24 hours ago and already the charge adapter has stopped working holy fucking shit.
>>54481677
Then just buy a new battery
>>54492403
Yes. The fuck with all these drag queen-tier color from xiaomi anyway? First there's gold, and now gold with pink-ish tint? Fuck that.
For comparison, the only non-retarded color available for redmi 3 is grey, and boy shit sells like hot cake so much so that resellers would charce extra 20 bucks for thr grey version (of a same redmi phone) compared to the gold or grey one
>>54493105
yeah, turn off the "dont do shit whilst in my pocket" setting.
If you lock your phone by pressing the button before putting it in your pocket, it wont do anything anyways.
Why can't the LG G5 be waterproof

Is the redmi note 3 pro 2gb version good enough? I was going to go with the redmi 3 pro (non-note) first because it's probably good enough for my needs, but it turns out I can get the 2gb ram note version for like 10 euro more, so now I'm finding hard to decide between the two. The 32/3gb version is like 50-60euro more, and I'm not sure I'm willing to spend that on my first chinkphone.
>>54494550
Why not use that money to buy an actual phone?
>>54494566
Like what? All phones from regular brands over here are expensive as shit.
>>54494611
Even, I don't know, an LG G2?
>>54494914
about 220 euro give or take.
>>54494914
>buying 3 generation old flagships
>>54494550
If the Redmi 3 is enough for you obviously the Note will be too. decide by your size preference 5" or 5.5".
>>54494942
That's the same price as Redmi on the official site, dude.
Moto X costs even less.

Hi guys,
have you seen anything like this ? When display is off/standby, there's no signal, no incoming calls, directly an sms that i've missed a call.
Redmi Note 3 Pro
>Nexus 6
>Vanilla android, just rooted
>Would I recommend it?
See pic related, not even the first time that it randomly fucks up my wp
Z3+ or Z5C? Opinions blease.
So, I've got an Alcatel oneTouch, real shitty, is there a way to use it as a smartwach of sorts?; like see my notifications and control the music.
I want that because I live in a shithole, and I want to use it as a front so I don't have to take out my real phone while I'm on the streets.
>>54495070
I'm not sure what to say, sempai. Over here I can get that version of the redmi note for 170 euro, while that version of the moto x will run me anywhere between 210 and 240.
>>54495014
according to the dimensions I've seen, the note is only like 1cm larger or something. It mostly has to do with do I want a sd616 with 3gb ram or a sd650 with 2gb ram. I've heard that MIUI can be a bit of ram hog, so I'm not sure if 2gb is enough.
Pronesis on the Note 3 is a pretty based touchjizz based rom.
>>54495538
Z5C.
Better battery
Perfect size
Better 810
Better design
Fingerprint sensor
Future proof
Won't burn your fingers as fast as that housefire z3+
>>54495714
2GB is enough. where are you getting these prices? I think you are confusing the Redmi Note 3 and the 3 Pro. the Note 3 (not Pro) is X10, not SD650.

How's the Oppo R7s? Just bought it for my mom's daughter. Any chink malware that needs to be uninstalled?
>>54495784
I thought this was a pro, since it says sd650.

Sick of itunes DRM, getting an s7. I've never managed phone media with a linux pc, will it be as much of a pain?
what should I upgrade to after using the htc m7 for 3 years
my camera has that purple filter break and I want a REALLY good camera
ive kept the phone though because the screen has never cracked
the only other problem I think it has is it expends too much energy when it tries to connect to wifi
Some months back I found a galaxy S5 Active, no one bothered to claim it. Now, lately everyone is pressuring me to get a smartphone, even my mom of all people, but since I don't need one or really want one I don't want to waste the money, so I'm wondering if I can use the phone I found. Thing is it has an ATT logo branded on it, so I'm not even sure if the phone is carrier locked and whether it will even work on my t-mobile service. Does anyone have any idea? Also, I can't check, the battery on the thing died months ago and I don't have an adapter to charge it and I'm not going to go buy one just to test. For all I know the thing might be broken, would explain the lack of claims, took 3hours when I found an iphone 5s.

I have right now a 4" device. It's cancer to surf the net or watch videos as it's too damn small. What is even more uncomfortable is to type on keyboard, I misclick every second key. My hands are not like bear ones, but quite big as I'm 1.90m tall. So, I'm kind of afraid of compact version. What do you say?
Thinking about getting the wileyfox swift, comes with cyanogenmod pretty cheap, specs seem good, is it a good phone?
What happened to the massive following for the v10?
I was gonna get it during the release because of the deal they offered (huge sd card, extra battery, and charging pad) but now no one is even talking about it.
I'm torn between the new s7 (edge or not) and the v10. Can anyone help me out?
All compare sites obviously say the newer s7 is superior, but I'm thinking in the long run as my s5 has lasted me 2 years and I love it.
>>54476800
These threads are almost entirely curryfags and teens on Mom's Verizon plan. None of them are able to choose and buy their own phone so it's generally just the lot of them wanking around, arguing about the specs of some obscure Chinkphone that has a TN panel and a cell from a 787's batterypack.

You are the world's dumbest smartphone thief. Just stick to stealing iPhones, Jerome.
>>54497704
With the 820 out, it's hard to value the 808/810 phones. Speaking for myself, I would want a significant discount for that alone. LG's pricing doesn't reflect that so I will probably go with the next wave of SD820 devices instead.
>>54497704
Oh, and I didn't bother to read your final two sentences, so I didn't realize you were a child needing handholding.
The S7 is clearly a better option than the V10, if price is not a factor. Go ask Mommy for that one and never come back to this board again.
>>54498253
Yeah I agree with you on that. It's very over priced for that reason alone..
Why are you so hostile? What did I do?
>>54498253
Thanks for the help though anyways. It was better than nothing
>Galaxy J1
It's the retarded brother of Gen1 Moto G, sucks on everything. Also

Fuck who designed that shit, I'm returning it tomorrow.
>>54498176
The micro usb I have doesn't fit in the slot on the Samsung for some reason, it seems to be using some sort of slim version. The iphone I never bothered trying and just handed it to the POPO, since one happened to shoot me when I was on my way home, Walter.

Moto X 2014 Review
>screen
The whites are white and blacks are deep and rich. Main problem is the horrid burn in after year and a half. 8/10
>build
Quality. I have the leather back. It feels good in hand, I love the curve. Good size for my hands, and the dimple makes me happy to have my forefinger resting on it. 10/10
>OS
Pretty much stock Android. The little things they have like the moto display and chop for flashlight are super useful. Twist for camera is also amazing. I love the news on the left thing, forget the name atm. Animations are smooth, phone has no lag I notice. Could use another gig of ram, but hey. 10/10
>Price
300 if I remember correctly. I fucked up and got the meme tier 16gb with no expandable storage. 9/10
>camera
Awful in low light oh god no. It really is not good. 5/10
>battery
Jesus the battery life is bad. 2300mah what we're they thinking. It's terrible. Does not last all day at all. Non replaceable. 3/10
>other complaints
Storage is super low, but that's my fault. With it had a micro SD and bigger battery, maybe dual speakers. Front facing bottom one is pretty good though, for a phone. It does get a little tinny and squeals on highs.
Overall I give it an 7/10. It's a pretty good device for the price, but the bad battery and camera and no micro sd stop a perfect score.
>Zenfone 2e Z00D
$50 from Best Buy. Needed a super cheap phone for some basic normie stuff, and want to unlock it for when I leave the country.
Pros:
>battery does well, since I charge it almost every night, and I disabled almost everything I didn't need
>handles most of the apps I have well, except Miitomo during the games
Cons:
>1GB RAM
>Cameras are not its strongest suit, although that comes with the price
>No huge focus on Android development, waiting on more news before I do anything
I'm not confident about doing anything more to it just yet. Gotta unlock it too
Which smartphone should I get? Im not social and use it to browse 4chan. Currently using galaxy s3, I like it because of expandable memory and replaceable battery. Looking for something with least bloat and features named above
