Hi all,
I'm thinking of getting the HP iPaq 6915 and have a question regarding selling my XDAIIi. I bought it off eBay about 3 months ago, brand new (Unwanted contract upgrade) and have since unlocked it, and put PUGS rom on it. Is it OK to sell it with this rom? Or should I put an o2 one back on it?
Thanks,
Karl
PS - I was tempted to the 6915 by the keypad and screen cover and some other stuff, including the price I can get it for.
I don't think you'll get into any legal trouble, but your buyers may not fully understand what you mean by it running a different ROM, or not be willing to try it out. To be safest and to get the best selling price, put the newest official rom on it that you can get.
Thanks mikesol. Is it ok to download the latest rom for the 2i from my-xda.com? Or should I get an original from here (If there is one)? And is there a chance I might incur any problems when replacing the rom? Would it be seen as a downgrade and cause trouble?

Okay, so I'm eligible for an upgrade from T-Mobile tomorrow, and can choose any phone I want, and I am wondering which one would be best for me. Obviously, I'm looking for some sort of smartphone but I'm wondering what you guys think. With my last purchase, I found out how quickly I got outdated (yeah, G1) without root. So, what do you guys think?
(I've had my eyes on the G2 for a while. Opinions on it?)
Hey guys, finnaly i decided to buy the new s2 skyrocket insted of the galaxy nexus phone.
I understand its alredy much more stronger and with the ics update its gonna rock.[am i wrong untill now?]
Im also gonna move from the US soon so i need an unlocked version, i have found only this one due to the fact AT&T/Verison and all thos dont sell the phone without a contract, so i found this one :
https://negrielectronics.com/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-skyrocket-i727-white-unlocked.html
Is this site reliable? is it new from the manufactore or pre-used? should i trust them? its only says unlocked but does that means sim-free?
Thx guys!
Best thing to do is see if you can get to a Walmart and try to find someone who will sell you a phone without a contract this has worked for several people I know

What do you mean "someone" ? just ask people around or is it on sale there?
I bought my Skyrocket from them because I couldn't find anywhere else that sold the white SR unlocked. It was actually cheaper for me to get the SR from them compared to getting the original S2 outright in Sydney, Australia.
The phone is new but they need to open the box to unlock the phone. The plastic film (which says don't text and drive or something like that) is still on the phone when you get it.
I read a couple of reviews about the site online and they seem reliable.
Hi all,
I'm thinking of going for a HTC One X contract.
I'd like to recycle my HTC Sensation as it's in good condition and I've seen it can go for £180-ish, which'd help pay off my remaining contract on the Sensation.
Would I need to reinstall a stock ROM, firmware, S-on and De-root etc...?
Cheers all!

Depends who's buying it!
You could advertise it as rooted and say you will put it back to stock if the buyer wishes.
It's up to you but certainly you don't have to return to stock to sell it.

Ah I don't mean auctioning it off, I mean selling it to a site like Mazuma, Envirophone etc...

If Mazuma, Enviofone, and so on are offering 180 Then there will be people out there willing to pay more on a private sale, like ebay , amazon
Its upto you, but you dont have to go back to stock to sell to recycle companies.
They just check the phone is in working condition and then pay out.
I dont know what they do with it then, recycle / resell ? be stupid to disassemble such new phone for parts n stuff tho !
I sold my rooted Desire to a recycler and they didn't say anything, before that I sold a Touch HD running a custom ROM, again nothing was said.
You can get a lot more selling privately but that's if you can be bothered.
Just simply tell the buyer feel free to request a non-official Rom

Hi. This is my 1st thread here at XDA, please excuse my ignorance.
Nokia Lumia 520 running stock Vodafone ROM Windows 8.0
I foolishly bought a replacement digitizer from an eBay seller (I should have bought from a genuine Nokia spare parts distributor).
I installed the screen and it works fine until one tries to make a call, and then it goes crazy, lots of ghost input.
I have since read that the after sales screens do not work with the new firmware.
I have read a little about flashing ROMs with Nokia Care Suite. I can only find Windows 8.0 ROMs for this phone.
Does anyone know of a viable ROM that would not include the code that conflicts with the knock-off digitizer screen?
Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance.
Hi,
Just last week replaced the digitizer of my friends 521 (same phone as yours buy T-Mobile branded) I got it from eBay for 20$ and it works great for me so it could just be you got a bad product and should return to seller.
But if you are looking for custom ROMs than u would suggest looking in the windows phone 8 section found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8
And if none that suit your needs is found ask in the q&a section if anyone knows how to fix your issue with software/firmware
Best of luck!
Hi, I have currently owned a one plus one for about 7 years now. Amazingly it has lasted all this time with no probs at all (I'm on my second battery, and have flashed a decent more modern ROM a while back so it still works with current apps etc). But I have been waiting for some new tech to be released before upgrading. And as that new tech is now here, I have decided to invest some of my hard earned cash to buy one.
But before I do,, thought I'd pop in here and ask you guys if there was anything I should be aware of before buying. Im in the UK, so are there any spec'd phones that would not work in the UK properly? I have heard of Chinese specific ones, maybe a rumer, maybe not?
Did any of them actually come with 512gb in the end? I'm after the rose coloured one if that makes a difference?
Should I not upgrade to the latest ui? As I see some are having problems with bugs..
Just anything I should be aware of really?, as its a lot of money to loose if something goes wrong...
Thanks chaps!..
