Here's a comparison chart I just created of warranty and insurance coverage for smart phones.
Comparison is between SquareTrade, Worth Ave Group, ToughCell, and Sprint TEP. I did not include others as I am not really familiar with them or haven't heard of them. I have Sprint, worked with SquareTrade, and will probably be going with Worth Ave Group in the near future. I did my best to be as accurate as possible but things may be different! Feel free to suggest corrections and/or additions. I'll update/fix it and repost whenever I get the chance.
**This information may not be 100% percent accurate so ask questions to whichever party you choose before signing up for anything, anywhere! Things change, and information found on their websites may change or may be incorrect! All information in this chart is collected from their respectful websites and recent experience**
*Coverage compared is for SMARTPHONES only, NOT iPhones or anything else* No, I'm not saying iPhones aren't smartphones, they have their own category on most of the websites of these providers.
Green is a little shout out to Android

Hi all
As i mentioned in the topic title
Why do these service providers make the international mobiles so gay and change the whole design just to take the exclusivity !!!
for example the Galaxy S II GT-I9100 , the whole world use the one in the pic below

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",

}
But what AT&T do , is making a whole new design and release their own Galaxy S II which is on the below pic
and many other smart phones and mobiles
Why they never follow earth standard?? why do they like to be so gay!!
I only need to know for what reasons they do it
While I agree the US does get a lot of cool phones, we get shafted up the ass w/out the lube over plan pricing and what features are locked/done away with vs what is unlocked/allowed to the rest of the world.
It's a real trade off and I'd rather have a phone the rest of the world already has with better pricing/data options and tabs that can make phone calls.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Hi
I'm one of the creators of RoadAid and until recently it was only available in Denmark.
Basically RoadAid is a social network application for traffic related insight.
You interact with other people on the road and warn each other about traffic jams, hazards, police and so on.
It's available for Android, iPhone and Windows Phone.
We have now opened up for a lot of countries and in that regard I'm reaching out to the xda community for little help to try the app and to spred the word.
I'm interested in knowing how the app performs on different devices and to eliminate bugs of course.
Even though the service has been put under extensive testing, we are only two people and can't find all the quirks by ourselves.
And if you have ideas or improvements please share with us.
Thank you.

Hi. Not sure where this goes but I haven't seen this broken out before. I took the liberty to break out each provider's plans by GB cost break down. Allow me to explain;
1. This breakdown reflects US pricing/availability only and from the top carriers (no pre-paid). I can branch this out to other carriers should this become popular.
2. Each provider has data promotions happening right now (until 10/31/14). I've taken those in to account.
3. I've created comparison formatting for the price breakdowns from VZW to AT&T exclusively as they're the biggest providers in the US at the time of this posting. Blue represents AT&T and appears where it is cheaper than VZW (red). Green highlighted text shows where costs are the same.
4. None of these numbers take in to account availability/coverage/etc - it's simple math of GB per dollar.
5. Numbers take in to account per device costs and break down by most popular plans of either 2 device or 4 device family share plans (no single lines) and does not take in to account taxes.
If you guys like this, let me know and I'll expand it as best I can.

Hi everybody,
I am a new member of this forum and a new android developer. I have designed a really really simple application just for learning on my own the basic principles of Android programming, so here it is. I only have an Android device, more concretely a Nexus 5, so I would be very thankful if somebody could tell me how it works (and looks) in other screens. Also, any advices and comments about pretty much anything will be highly appreciated. Oh, and before someone says it, I know how childish the design is; it's my personal touch haha.
Thank you all!

Kuk the Cookie is a fortune cookie that will tell you your future if you click over it.
That future could be a good one or a bad one, just like in real life. It will probably be bad, just like in real life. About its accuracy, Kuk claims to have a hit rate at least equal to any other medium, palm reader, oracle or fortune cookie.
So do not take it too seriously.
* PERMISSIONS: The permissions required are just for showing ads.
* MENTIONED FEATURES: Fix the "Share on Facebook", which is currently disabled.

I'd like to know which, obviously in your opinion, is the currently most supported brand by the community and independent developers.
For me phone hardware is not so important because after all its more or less the same no matter what brand. However bad access to community made software and roms can make a phone way worse imo.

I am so dissapointed that ASUS is not listed!
Perhaps this will shed more light on it, at least for LOS:

Pixel devices are well supported as long as it isn't from one of the US carriers.
One Plus devices are also well supported.
Why does the carrier change it? I do not live in the US but it interests me now.
@Bomber293 because some US carriers don't allow for bootloader unlock on some devices.....
In general I was surprised at the level and volume of development happening on the Pixel 6 series - so yes, I'd second the Pixel.....
