I'm working on a project, and I need an Android phone that's compatible with AT&T 3G, and running Froyo. The obvious choice is the Nexus One for AT&T, but the project's not really worth spending $500+ on. Are there any other phones out there that are compatible with AT&T 3G, unlockable and capable of running Froyo?
your best bet would be a t mobile phone, i was looking in to the same thing for a while and my best bet was buying a g1 or a mytouch 3g, as all att phones are very locked down and wont run froyo
I am about to upgrade mine and my wifes phone and I need some guidance on what phone I should get. I will prob get my wife an iphone or windows7 phone, just because I want something easy and painless for her.
I am looking to go to either ATT or Verizon. I have a Samsung Captivate. My biggest problem with this phone is the lag. I can't seem to get rid of it no matter what I do. So the biggest thing that I am looking for in a phone is no lag. I don't really care about custom roms so much because if it runs my apps correctly then there is no need to run a custom rom, so locked boot loader is ok for me.
I have been looking at the new Droid X2 or maybe Droid Charge. LTE is not in my area but will be by the years end, so is getting an LTE phone now what I should do? Do you think it will be better to get a phone off ebay/craigslist and just wait for a newer phone?
I have been a faithful ATT subscriber for years, but they have been pissing me off lately so thinking about switching to Verizon, but if I can get the phone I am looking for on ATT, I will stay.
I am in need of some guidance.
Thanks,
Keith
Buy it on ebay and wait for a phone with ice cream dual core speeds
If you make the switch to Verizon. I would say the HTC Thunderbolt. It almost made me change from T-Mobile using HTC G2. I just like the G2's keyboard. The Thunderbolt is a powerful device that will do anything you want it to. I used a friends Thunderbolt for a few weeks. I never had a problem with lag. It really is a nice phone. That is just my opinion though.
Hello everyone,
As you can see I am a newbie and this is my first post. Excuse me if a thread like this was made before, but after searching on the web I recently found out that I can use my E71 sim card on AT&T phones. I would like people's opinion on which phone I should buy? I also hear from fellow students that CES 2012 just happend. Should I wait for the new phones or just purchase a phone that is out now?
Thanks and much appreciated
Depends what you want, how much you can afford a month and how much your willing to spend on a phone. If your looking for prepaid virgin mobile is good, they have the motorola triumph, htc wildfire s, lg optimus v, lg optimus slider and samsung intercept (all are android) look up some planes on the internet, at&t prepaid is good but metro pcs has nice 4g phones and android phones, I see you want to no whats the best phone from straigt talk, i dont no much about the phones but check out metro,virgin, and at&t

Well I just read up on how ST has a loop hole and you can use mainly AT&T phone and some T-Mobile phones with the right 3G frequencies. I was willing to spend no more than $250 for a phone, but I don't know how long the loop hole is going to be open so I don't want to spend a lot on a phone and it not work. I was looking at the Atrix but various sites aren't every accurate when it came to comparing it to the Infuse or Inspire and other phones.
Do u want prepaid? For 250 you can by a nice prepaid phone

Straight Talk offers 2 android phones. The LG Optimus Q and the Samsung Galaxy Precedent.
If u want more android for prepaid id say metro pcs or virgin mobile

From what I read can't I just use any phone from AT&T and use my sim card on it? The phones from ST are entry level android and I want a full fledge android phone if there is such a thing.
Yes, you can use any AT&T smartphone on Straight Talk, I did it for about a year. For under $250, I'd try and get an AT&T band Nexus S, an Infuse, or maybe a Galaxy S2 if you can go an extra $100 higher. It's definitely worth the extra cash.
My local Walmart thinks there will be a new Android phone available in February 2012 for Straight Talk, any idea on make/model? or if worth the wait?
Look at virgin mobile, 4g is coming this year but all there other Android is 3g

I have been doing some reading and is it worth buying a 4G phone, since ST doesn't use 4G yet. Until they upgrade their bands?

I think you're missing the point of the OP. He's not asking for recommendations for carriers, or phones on other carriers. He's only interested in StraightTalk, and since ST's GSM phones (at least, the E71) runs on AT&T, you can just stick the E71's SIM card in an AT&T phone and use it. He's asking for good/cheap AT&T phones to run on StraightTalk.
So, to answer the OP's question, I would probably try to go with a Nexus S (look for the AT&T band one, like entropism said), or maybe a used iPhone 4.
Okay I am looking for a new phone on T Mobile. I am looking at Samsung Galaxy S III. Does anyone have one and give a review on it. Are there better phones on T Mobile or phones that may be coming out this year that I should wait for? Does anyone know if any phones with the Nvidia Tegra are going to be coming out for T-Mobile
The only in depth reviews for Galaxy S III were for the international version with the quad core.
Does anyone know if HTC One X will work on T-Mobile?
depends what are you needed..
generally...sgs3 have a more performance...
but one x is have the beautiful design
htc one x will work on t-mob but am not sure about data bands.. check for data bands otherwise you may stuck with 2g.
galaxy s3 will be best choice , but also check htc one s
it should depend on how long you want to stick with the phone, and whether you want to use 3G or 4G/LTE...

Well I actually have a SGSII now because i found it and rooted it. I want to have at least 3G if not 4G. The reason i am looking is that i have a lot of credit with tmobile and i have that upgrade option right now.

The One X will only work on 2G/EDGE speeds until the refarm is done in your area. I personally didn't like the S3 because of the size so I went with the HTC One S. I think the 1S has the perfect size for a phone and has the same processor as the T-MO S3 but it all comes down to what YOU want in a phone.

I think the refram has been done. They are pushing for the family to upgrade phones right now. My mom still has an old flip phone. Her signal seems to be getting worse.
I just looked it up and apparently the quad core SIII and the One X are not available in the US. Does the One S have a MicroSD slot? The SIII does have a slight advantage with the extra gig of ram. As for size i really need to hold them and see if they can fit comfortably in my pocket.
I am a Verizon customer and have also been playing around with Straight Talk ATT with a Nexus 5 and a OnePlus One (luck invite). Where I live east of Cleveland, the only reliable signal is with Verizon. I do not like any of the phones available now on Verizon. I am thinking about buying a GN and flashing CM11 on it to make it ASOP without Verizon's fingerprints all over it.
How capable is the GN in a land of apps being developed for Quad core phones and how much longer would the GN be useable? I can flash using ADB/Fastboot and am pretty capable of doing most of the stuff I need to do to mod a phone.
Just wanting to hear some users who are currently using their GN as a daily and if it is a capable device for 2014-2015.
Thanks!
