Im currentlty seeking for a replacement for my dead Samsung Vibrant but not sure on what to choose...
I have decided on Samsung Galaxy S 2 and HTC Inspire 4G
I Decided on this because both use 850/1900 mhz 3g bands that I will be using overseas.....
Or if you know any other phone with this specs please write it down......
Thanks
Depends. SII released in UK in May. Who knows in other locations. Inspire is readily available.
Wait for the S2 The inspire, is a decent phone But, The S2 is going to be a lasting workhorse just like the Galaxy 2 phone currently is. If you want to go to cdma then the Thunderbolt is a good choice but it is hard to root and the phone itself still has some issues around battery life so that will take time to resolve.
the S2 still looks to be the best choice at this point

Without a predictable release date that could prove to be a risky move. I like my Galaxy phone enough I can wait .....
True, but doesn't he need a phone now? You always buy something cheap on ebay if worst comes to worst.
Can the atrix 2 be used on tmobile? Just wondering because I was offered a good deal on it and wanted to get it but I dont like At&t prices.

It might work, but you wont get 4g speeds.

Yeah, but if you're with Tmoblie, I would suggest the Samsung Galaxy SII . It's a solid phone and just got the latest software. But...then again...pricing...haha
Sorry for posting if this is already asked, but I am at work and my upgrade is up soon. Could get in huge troble for being on here but was dying to ask...... I am between buying the Galaxy nexus or the note and flashing it to Verizon if possible. I have the unlimited data with Verizon using my fascinate and do not want to lose it by switching carriers. I want the note bad, sooooooo bad. I'm willing to pay if I can flash it. I'm not really looking forward to the nexus as I don't think it has swipe. Swipe is a must for me. Any suggestions? I don't really have a sweet tooth so I'm not so concerned with ICS I will hack it when the time comes if no update is released. If not flashable to Verizon, could you recommend another with similar specs?
Thanks, Essyg
no, you can't flash the note to verizon...you can unlock it to run on T-mobile though. If you're looking to flash a phone, only phones you can use would be on Sprint or you could just get a verizon phone.
Thank you...
Can you recommend one? I am not sure which one to get.... Should I just wait to see if anything new is coming out?
only phones I'd consider from sprint is the htc evo design or the samsung s2 epic 4G touch. They don't compare to the note though...
Hey guys, I'm looking for a T-Mobile phone that is used and costs around $150. I'm looking at these phones:
HTC MyTouch 4G (non-slide)
HTC G2
Motorola Defy
Samsung Vibrant
Samsung Galaxy S 4G
Also, taking into consideration which has ICS and a more active dev community.
Thanks!
EDIT: I'm going for a no-contract $30 prepaid plan, forgot to add that

Go with the vibrant! Great phone. The SGS 4g (T959v) is nice but there is a larger dev community for the original. You won't be disappointed.
Edit: Don't overlook the captivate from at&t. It is easily unlocked with an app and is a great phone, large dev support as well.
What are you looking at shortbus?

:O where are you living, and, can I get some pictures of that because, that will make my day!
Would never buy Motorola, Samsung and so much about nothing at all, so much trouble with him was. So many problems with the flashing, forever's not like it, is not flashing, after the firmware is not loaded, reloaded
My choice of HTC
My wife has the Samsung Galaxy S, but its sometimes crappy with force restarts.

I am leaning towards the Galaxy S because I bought GTA 3 on one of my old phones and it was laggy on that one (it had an adreno 205)
consider the htc one x
with his quadcore processor you're good for a few years
My vote goes for HTC One X too. Tegra 3 is overrated, but too many developers start to consider that as main platform for development.
He wants phones that are affordable guys!!! lol But if I had to I would get a Samsung Galaxy S 4G and get straight talk for $45 Unlimited everything!!!.
Now for high end phones... the GS3 is deffinently the KING!

I live in Washington D.C. I will post some pics up later today for you. Believe me I really looked into it before I bought my captivate. I also have a vibrant. These are really great devices. Flashing is really easy, no need to worry about s-on/off like HTC devices. I also have an HTC my touch 3g slide aka espresso and I prefer the Samsungs hands down.

get the galaxy s 4g i have the int version and its still my daily phone

Let me start out by saying I'm not advocating piracy or any illegal activities but you can get alot of cool new games from 4shared. Hypothetically you could get the apk for these games to try and see how they work on your device before purchasing. Please purchase these games and apps to help support the development and continuation of great apps on the market.

I like the look and feel of the captivate more than the vibrant myself. Anyways, you can flash different bands? link me to the instructions please!

I don't use minutes if any at all, that's why im going with tmobile (and saving 5 bucks a month while im at it )
I'll be buying a phone within the next 2 days, can someone confirm if captivate can work with tmobile 3g? I've looked all over and everyone says it only works with edge
thankyou!
so we currently are on verizon. our signal is weak at home and heard at&t services our area well.. so im realy cinsidering the switch.. it sucks going outside to make phone calls..
what at&t devices have development going on?? root, backup.. you know..
we switched to verizon a year ago from tmobile. i got a htc dsire 626 that had no dev whatsoever.. going from a rom junkie to no means at all was crazy.. i hate phones with buttons but in this case it seems if i have to do it, i have to do it..
I know the feeling. I thought the Galaxy S4 would be a "nice cheap upgrade" from the Captivate (Galaxy S, AT&T branded ofc) which spoiled me to no end. I'd love to find something as open as that.
Right now, I'm looking at just outright outta-contract buying an unlocked phone and just doing the legwork to make sure it works with AT&T antenna wise.
Of course everyone's needs and wants are different but amongst my group the winners seem to be OnePlus Three, LG G4/5, for those who are flash-happy.

cool i'll have to take a look into those.. yeah the desire 626 had literally no dev for the verizon side.. metropcs got a little but it was dead for the most part.. i just delt with it, gave up, but never lost interest.. now that we are thinking of switching again, ima do more research before get anything..
HTC 10 - T-Mobile Note 4 or 5 - Nexus 6p - one+ any version - Nexus 5x - Honor 5x or 8
