I still love my phone since I bought it cheap and it just Werks.
>>54544076
Go ahead. It's a great phone, a bit pricey though.
>>54544042
How is the G5? Anyone grab it? I just bought a G3 second hand and love it
>>54544076
S7 or HTC 10. But probably a faggot like you can't appreciate hardware and wants Fisher price OS so go for the 6s.
Should I buy a OnePlus X or a Redmi Note 3 Pro? Also open to suggestions
>moto /g/ first gen master race reporting in
can anyone suggest a good flip case for a z5 compact, preferably one that covers the edges but doesn't obscure the buttons?
>>54544135
Everyone meme on them, not hate them. No one's gonna stop you from buying one anyway. I don't see a problem here desu.
Is it true that the redmi 3 pro has worse battery life than the normal redmi 3? If so, how much. I'm torn between the two models.
>>54544199
Redmi r shite
>>54544199

>>54544118
Good software library > hardware. If you wanted hardware, Windows Phone is the way to go.
>>54544137
RN3P is way better. OPX is OP1 specs and old af.
>>54544199
Huh? how does that makes sense? the Pro is better with an extra gig of RAM.
HTC One M7 nugga. Camera is absolutely diabolical but everything else is completely fine.
>>54544245
>>54544199
Maybe he means the fingerprint being on all the time? In any case, I haven't heard of it being detrimental to battery life.
>>54544245
How? Because the pro has fingerprint scanner which I don't care about, but I do care about that extra gig of ram.
>>54544259
I just saw a guy on a review saying the battery was worse but maybe he got a defective battery.
hi just ordered a redmi note 3 pro from gearbest
what method is best to use to unlock bootloader and what rom to flash?
thanks
>>54544234
Dunno since the battery isn't as big as the rememes 3. I don't care much about intensive gaming, but it'd be important for it to have a good battery so I can watch movies, browse the Internet and play some games from time to time. Plus the mi4c is more expensive.
>>54544259
>>54544273
Right, I assume the extra gig of RAM, 32GB and fingerprint scanner might consume a little bit more electricity but I don't think it will have a very meaningful effect on battery life. I think you can also turn the fingerprint reader off.
>>54544284
>what method is best to use to unlock bootloader
You don't have much choice here, you need to ask Xiaomi to give you an unlocking code.
Which last year's flagship is best
I don't have an upgrade until next year and I don't want to use this windows phone any longer, I hate it
Was thinking g4 since they're so fucking cheap for some reason
>>54544393
>for some reason
Bootloop.
>>54544393
G4 ain't bad. People bitch about a boot loop though.
I'd get a Nexus 6p tbqh senpai. Galaxy s6 is good, but battery sucks.
>>54544118
Not an applewhore but have you ever used a Samsung? The ui looks like a child's toy and causes latency and battery issues with android
>>54544393
What's wrong with the windows?
>>54544400
>>54544416
What is "bootloop" and when does it happen? Randomly?
Does the V10 have that problem?
>>54544400
>>54544416
Strangely enough, not a single pajeet talks about G4 bootloop issues on GSMArena. Planning to buy G4 myself - low price, great specs.
>>54544570
The Lumia icon was nice in 2014. But now the OS is abandoned and there are literally NO apps for anything. Even the 4chins apps aren't supported anymore
Plus the battery is getting worse
>>54544513
That's why I recommended the 10 too. Touchjizz got better with the s7 my brother has it and is satisfied.
>>54544584
Bootloop - as far as I know, the neverending cycle of boot-up (power up/start).
>>54544584
Hardware issue that will brick your phone 100%, only question is when.
http://www.androidauthority.com/lg-admits-g4-bootloop-problem-hardware-fault-669603/
>>54543975
it is already rooted and has busybox installed
unless the bootloader is something else alltogather
>>54544076
It's a good phone, the materials, design and the os are all great. It definitely is much more limiting than Android though, but man you almost never have to mess with it or force close anything or reset it, and that's a good feature in my book since I don't wanna be worrying about anything while I'm taking a shit.
>>54544592
>Planning to buy G4 myself - low price, great specs.
>memebuttons on the back
Dropped.
>>54544630
shieeeeeet
does the v10 have this problem?
what is with LG not being able to make a phone without a giant flaw
G2's screen would stop working after a year
G3 overheated
G4 bootloop
G5 probably has some giant flaw too
>>54544660
>does the v10 have this problem?
No, it's supposedly fixed. then again, paying ~$500 for an SD808 phone is quite lame.
>>54544658
But it's so cheap
Last year's flagship for only 200 bones
>>54544660
G4's bootloop is fixed, calm down. If you'll look only on flaws you won't buy a single damn phone, because each one has it's issues.
>HTC overheats and generally overpriced.
>Samsung has RAM management problems and lags with its Touchwizz.
>Sony is fragile with average-tier camera and some overheating issues.
>LG battery draining with QHD screen.
>Apple too expensive and low battery capacity.
>Huawei's EmotionUI is shit and lags.
>>54544736

Fuck it I think I'm just gonna get a g4 and hope i didn't get one that was manufactured in september
>>54544076
>the first fucking post
do you iShills ever rest?
>>54544658
It is absolutely not a problem considering how powerful and cheap this device is. Can't complain. I don't like 5.5" phablet-type display size either, but hey, I have no choice and again - it's cheap. I don't like QHD screen resolution that just sucks battery power like a vampire.
>>54544658
/g/2 owner here
back buttons are extremely comfy to be quite honest with you family member
My gf needs a new phone.
Not so expensive so I'm picking Xperia Z3+ for her.
Any personal experience with that model?
>>54544660
I've had a g2 for 3 years now. Not a single issue.
>>54544774
I'm not a fan of the 2K screen meme either
Why can't people just make a 5 inch or less phone with a 1080p screen and a 3000 or greater mAh battery
no instead we get these placebo screens that fucking rape and pillage your battery life
>>54544802
>Why can't people just make a 5 inch or less phone with a 1080p screen and a 3000 or greater mAh battery
They exist if your'e willing to go the way of the chinkphones.
>>54544802
Well, they try avoiding "the sweet spot" i.e. making average phone with 5-5.2" screen paired with 1080p screen, 2/3GB RAM, 16/32GB internal + SD, good battery and etc. So either people buy flagship with price around 600-700 euros or some crap for 200 euros. I see lots and lots of new and olders models and yet I struggle to pick the one that fits my needs the best. Something is always a con.
>>54544837
old flagships have this
>>54544742
HTC overheats? Any sources on that? You are talking about the m9 not the 10 right?
>>54544947
Not the >3000 mAh battery
>>54544977
Z3 has this
>>54544959
As far as I remember it was to do with older models. But generally, metal back will hold the heat in itself, so yeah, may occur some little overheating. Have no info on M10, since I wasn't even planning to buy it, so haven't look for reviews or feedback.
>>54544959
>>54545090
I've had mine less than 24h so this isn't much indication, but the only time it felt hot was when charging, and when i was installing stuff it was warm on the back like someone else's hand or something. Not uncomfortable, didn't make my hand sweat.
Sony Xperia Z3
>First phone I've used with Soft home, back, menu buttons and I am surprised at how much I'm okay with them
>Pretty pleasant to use
>Fragile
Though, unfortunately I just dropped it and smashed the touch screen because i'm an idiot.
What phone should I get to replace it /g/?
Amazon Fire Phone
Pros
>Basically paid 30 dollars for it
>Snapdragon 800 is perfectly decent
>CM11 is actually more stable on it than on my old Z1C
Cons
>Stuck on 4.4 with little hope of a real update ever
>No mSD
>No MHL
>Most apps can't access the camera
>>54544393
>>54544610
I feel you, m8. Ordered an iPhone yesterday for the same reason. It's the last OS I haven't tried. The camera on the Lumia 1020 is pretty great for landscape pictures, but everything else in that phone, including non-landscape pictures, is downright awful nowadays. Half of the M$ apps it had preinstalled a year ago don't even work anymore.
Out of all the flahships this year I keep thinking the HTC 10 is the best one. It's android is nearly stock, it's not built out of recycled plastic like the G5 and fuck touchwiz.
Anyone have it? The capactive buttons look annoying and I haven't heard anything on screen latency or battery life.
>>54545355
true. it's tempting.
are the current nexus phones anygood? anyone?
>>54544240
And if you want hardware and software, Android.
>>54545472
From what I hear, the general quality of the apps for the iOS is still higher than that for Android. Needless to say, the more unusual apps don't/can't exist for it.
>>54545503
It depends. Social media apps like snapchat, instashit work better on ios. Everything else works fine on android.
>>54545580
One thing I am not very happy about is that iOS does not support custom quiet hours set by the calendar. Actually, I'm quite surprised it doesn't, considering that it's the kind of feature anyone with a job would find very useful.
>>54545355
Lolno. Z5 in some aspects is a downgrade from the Z3.
Get Z5 if you like Sony and want fingerprint sensor.
it's happening boys, what should it be?
>>54545429
yes they are good
>>54545711
>not doing prepaid
>not buying your own unlocked device
>sucking the corporate cock
>>54544741
Why is the G4 so cheap ($299 new on Amazon; bootloop issue should be fixed on new phones) while the Xperia Z5 is also last year's phone yet its price hasn't budged since February???
I'm fucking dyyyyyying for a price drop!
>>54545429
Yeah. I think the 6p suffers from over heating though and it's also absurdly large. Google will hopefully be announcing the new Nexus later this month though
>>54545675
How so?? Because of the 810? There's like a 2 year gap between the two
to conclude the suspenseful story
I chose a galaxy s7
>>54545735
Don't dream about Z5 that much, anon. You'll lose a feel of satisfaction when you eventually get it.
Anyone had problems with the LG G3? I want to buy it right now, but some reviews and complaints are making me nervous. There's a lot whining about this phone on the internet, so that concerns me.
I'm switching from Nexus 4 and don't want my new phone acting wonky.
>>54545735
you can get a new g4 for $200 on ebay
simply kek
>>54546709
>replacing your 4 year old phone with a 2 year old phone
If you can't afford a current flagship, get last year flagship at the minimum or a chinkshit.
So, I have this phone I found from a while back, since I can't use it as my own, what should I do with it? Can I put ubuntu on it and use it as a mini pc for my tv?
>tfw I have a Xperia Z
>tfw I don't trust chinkphones no matter how much I see them shilled everywhere
>tfw too poor to afford a new flagship
>tfw Sony won't release the X series soon
>tfw the X Performance will be way too expensive
I hope the Xperia X will be worth buying.
>>54546765
I can afford it, but I don't want to spend money on things I won't use. I bought my Nexus 4 on the release date only because it had good price/value ratio, newest phones offer specs I won't ever need.
I need replacement because my current phone can't handle Full HD videos.
>Nexus 5X
Pros: fingerprint unlock, Comfy size, opens captive portals for wifi instantly, charges really fast when plugged into outlet, + everything else modern Android phones have
Cons: takes forever to turn on (like 3-4 minutes), phone comes with USB-C to USB-C only, had to buy my own cable from best buy to plug into PC to put music on, can't really think of any other cons
I upgraded from a note 3 on Sprint to this phone on project fi, I love this phone.
>>54546841
>So, I have this phone I found from a while back, since I can't use it as my own, what should I do with it?
Give it back Dashonte.
>>54546904
Seriously though, what should I do with it? It's a waste to just trash it.
>>54544042
What's the best case for s7 edge?
LG G4 or Honor 7 Premium?
The Premium is just a regular Honor 7 with 32 GB of internal memory with a fast charger included.
>>54546872
N5X?
>>54546973
Yes, it's on my list, but I think I'll wait for it's price to drop (so probably in about 4 months when the new Nexus phone will arrive).
Or I'll just buy the G3 right now.
>buy new LG G5 for 500 bongs

Fucking hell that was a bad time. I'm so glad the USB part just pops off or it would probably have been a massive job to clean out.
>>54546709
I used a G3 for about 18 months and was very happy with it. Only switched because the screen started to yellow on the right side probably because it was on at high brightness for 5-7 hours every day.
>>54547066
No bootloops and problems with wifi connection?
>look at LG G5 in person
>doesn't look that bad
How can I see battery percentage instead of a bar, honor 7 without root
>>54547113
No problems at all. Used mainly stock based ROMs.
>>54547125
Honestly the only real problem with the G5 right now is there's no tempered glass protectors that actually fit it properly yet.
I fucking hate having to resort to shitty pet film.
>>54547153
I guess it's hit and miss then, D855 (yuropean) version is the most prone to failure it seems.
>>54546845
Specs and price for the x is released. 500€ for a snapdragon 650 and 3gb ram. It's a highly overpriced midrange phone.
>>54546892
Still there? How does the battery hold up?
>>54547175
These days you shouldn't even need screen covers, we should just be able to feel our phone.
Ordered a HTC 10 64GB version, how did i do?
>>54544284
There's no other option than http://en.miui.com/unlock
>>54547218
bretty good I am using mine without a case right now since it just feels so solid
>>54546845
I think Xperia X series is gonna be a huge failure and the worst ever created by Sony. Even more disgusting design, already outdated, now without back glass panel which, basically, will make it lose all premium feel and look. Much overpriced with mediocre specs. Camera won't feature 4K recording (well, atleast it won't overheat now, or...). God knows if they ever make their batteries reach 3000mAh again. And generally speaking this is just a fucking rebranded Z5. How fucking low of you, Sony.
>>54546951
What a shitty comparison. Of course G4. What made you think of Honor 7? You're basically comparing mid range phone with a huge flagship.
>>54546997
If you sign up for project Fi you'll get a $150 of coupon for a 5X. That's why I got it instead of a N6.
>>54547198
Really good except in my work building because it's constantly trying to maintain a data connection but any phone will do that.

>Post a mini-review of your phone
Nexus 6P. Pretty damn good phone if you ask me, haven't rooted yet, but thinking about putting the N preview on it for the luls. Battery life is decent, I take it off charge around 9am and it's maybe at ~30% when I get back home.
Camera is pretty amazing, especially seeing as how RAW support is coming.
Only wish there were more accessories for it though, like Otterboxes and whatnot.

Socialshit apps kill pretty much every phone because they're really badly coded and insist on running and draining juice 100% of the time no matter how hard you try to kill them.
Something like a Z3C would probably work in that price range but don't expect miracles.
>galaxy note 4
Samsung updates suck ass. Touchwiz was an old version and garbage. Not even new features from the note 5. Flashed a debloated note 5 rom and no lag anywhere. Pictures are good.I don't take selfies. >lmaofaggot.jpg It's basically a note 5 with a removable back with sd card/battery swapping abilities. Still hate touchjizz. Had cm13 on it and battery life sucked. Other than that i loved cm13. Maybe features were lacking compared to touchwiz but it was fixed with a few 3rd party apps. Next phone will be a sexus or htc. Phone is solid and built like a fucking tank. I get a new phone in December as well.

I don't care about fingerprint scanners. My GS3 doesn't have one, nor do I feel it's required.
Plus I don't want NSA owning my fingerprints.
Camera hardware is best (2nd highest rated dxomark score), but software is lacking. Hoping for an update to correct that, but manual mode turns out great images.
Overheating was fixed with updates. Even then 810 overheats regardless, and until they make a Z5+ or something with an 820 or something, I'll overlook it for the visual aesthetics of the phone itself.
Don't really care about volume button placement.

Just wait for Xperia X family, these will be very good phones.

I personally prefer fingerprint to a password for me it's the perfect trade off between security and convenience

But the X Performance (being the closest to the Z5's specs) looks like some sort of amalgamation of an iphone. It doesn't look /terrible/ but I think the Z5 is more aesthetically pleasing.

Well my HTC 10 came with a DOA charger.
>>54549738
Oh I didn't know that. Did you check on http://willmyphonework.net/ ?
>>54549767
with a 6000mAh battery it sounds plausible.
>>54549870
Other than that the phone is fantastic. Luckily it's the charger that's broken and not the USB c cable so I can charge this thing.
>>54546951
Does it have an SD slot?

From what I know the camera firmware is proprietary so it's not possible for a rom to get the same level of image quality. I'm not a dev though. But I'm pretty sure that's the case, roughly.

no, you'll get like 10hrs of real SOT usage
Just tried downloading Odin from odindownload.com, which by the way appears at the top the search results; it's a fucking malware infestation. What the fuck?
>>54548122
really? battery's been great for me. I use it all day and end up with around 50-60% when I get home, could last me 3 days if I use it kinda sparingly
>>54544100
overall it's very nice, good build quality and all. front camera is weird about lighting sometimes and gets fuzzy. rear camera is good but looks weird in snapchat when you zoom in a bunch (because it doesn't switch modes I guess)
there's a bit of lightleak on the edges of the screen but it's usually not noticeable
other than that, extremely responsive and has great battery, etc.

Anyone running CM 13.0? I had it on my Galaxy S5 for a few days but Bluetooth audio keeps skipping, especially when going into the Bluetooth options.
Also using the cardboard app is very laggy as opposed to touchjizz, even though it scores higher on antutu and geekbench. Am I forever cursed to running touchwiz?

don't buy a phone running google's OS
What do you recommend that is 5inches and has a removable battery, micro sd slot, a good battery and enough processor power/ram to run soem apps I may want to try out' I'm not opposed to chink phones
Hope the Moto Amps turn out dope
>>54551497

Nope.

The Z5 mini and Moto G can do it at 4.5inches
>>54544118
>Fisher Price OS
>>54551497
LG Volt

Neither have removable batteries.
Having to remove screws/glue/void warranty doesn't count.
>>54544658
>implying rear buttons aren't better than side buttons
>>54551750
What's removable battery good for? If it's removable, it's most certainly not good because they use lower capacity in order to fit.
>>54551822
Not true at all.
They're good because they allow swapping while on the road and easy replacement when the device is aging.
Is the Moto G still the best budget android, even at this 3rd generation?
>>54551497
my dick
>>54551855
10,000 charge cycles is a lot, ans you can buy a powerbank the size of your wallet id you're going on safari or arctic expedition. It's just a crippling feature in 2016 to have a removable battery. What's your current phone?
>>54551822
those of us that keep a device for 2,3 years appreciate being able to swap in a new battery when it doesn't hold charge for shit instead of buying an entire new phone
Xperia z3 compact
The screen is literally falling off.
Never buying Sony again.
Britfag here looking to get a new phone. £200 max but preferably lower, would settle for older phones (i.e. 1-2 years)
>2gb RAM preferable
>good CM support
>decent camera
Is there a phone that suits?
>>54551435
Edge of the screen has come off, idk how to prevent that from happening again
>>54551426
Personally I had a lot of fun rooting my Xperia PLAY back in the day. The lack of a recovery partition actually works out in your favour in the long run.
Good luck finding a new one, though.

Note 4 good buy atm? If not, can you recommend a smartphone with:
-Medium/big screen (5.2"-6")
-Removable battery
-SD Card
-CM 13 official support
-Under $200-$300 (Don't mind using Swappa or Ebay for used phones)
>>54549399
It would suffice for those apps as they're well optimized on the iPhone.
Keep in mind the 1GB RAM means switching a lot between them would mean they will die often.
iPhone 5C also has somewhat notoriously bad battery.

Do you have to worry about hacked firmware for all Xiaomi phones? Or is that only if you buy them from GearBest or Aliexpress etc?
I was thinking of buying a Redmi Note 3 Pro, but buying it through a local phone shop who sells them.

A tab with an ad opens sometimes when I open any browser on android. Are there any diagnostic tools I could use to pinpoint what's doing this?
My last phone was a Moto G and I hate it now. It broke.
I'm between Samsung Galaxy J7 and Zenfone 2 now. What do you recommend, /g/, that is in this price range? I live somewhere without Redmi Pro 2 Note. I play a few games.
>>54553602
just flash your own shit if the bootloader is already unlocked
>>54553655
this
>>54553602
No matter where you buy it, there's ye likelihood the rom isn't legitimate. It's because they flash their own "global" versions with all languages, but they can be unofficial. You just flash the real rom when you get your phone and there's nothing to worry about. No unlocking needed, no bullshit verification or waiting period from xiaomi. Read up on mi forums.

Not very happy about the heat issue and battery of the 5x.
Is the above a better choice for me?
I use normie social media and stream lots of music on WiFi, that's it.
