Need a phone recommendation

Okay, I have searched for several weeks and would like a recommendation.
I currently have a Kaiser (AT&T Tilt). I have tried several ROMs with the phone over the past few years, but I clearly need to replace my phone. I live in an area that practically eliminates having any carrier other than AT&T or Verizon. The service with Sprint & T-Mobile is terrible.
I would like a phone running Android. I have tried the Kaiser port and enjoyed using it more than any ROM I have tried. I am fully aware that this poses a problem, as neither AT&T or Verizon currently have an Android phone.
As far as I know, I have three options ...
Purchase a T-Mobile phone (G1 or MyTouch) and use it on AT&T, giving up any hope of using the 3G network.
Purchase the Google Dev phone and use it on AT&T, again giving up any hope of using the 3G network.
Purchase a Rogers G1, pray for a root kit, and hope that it works correctly on AT&T's networks.
Is there anything I am missing? I'd really like to upgrade in the near future, but as far as I see I'm between a rock and a hard place.

I'd take the Hero in a heartbeat ... but is there any way to get one in the US before late fall/early winter?

Not sure about that
But you can always buy it from overseas

Depends if it is a Usa branded phone then yes..... Also the unlock times are quite long took me about 3 days to receive my unlock code..... Welcome to the forums the search bar is also extremely useful to find a answer without waiting for a reply.....

call ATT they legally have to unlock it if your account is in good standing. They are usually nice about it. I did it through their online chat. make sure you have the last 4 digits of the SSN of the account holder.

Hi,
You can unlock your Atrix using unlock codes!!! Unlocking using codes is easy and also safe!!! There are may online sites that offer these codes. Personally i would suggest Simpleunlocking.com , here they provide best unlocking service at reasonable price!!! After unlocking your phone, you can use it with any GSM network!!!!

Dude, less sugar. Really. You type like a chihuahua barks.
But seriously, I've known people who have had really good results with these sites. I've also known people who get burned with bogus codes or outright nothing at all, no support, no nothing. I'd just call AT&T...you at least KNOW that they have access to the information that you need.

Questions before I get this phone

Hi,
I am planning to get this phone from a friend. It is the S2 From Rogers. Couple of questions:
1. Im getting it for $160 CDN. Good deal? No contract, whatever and in 9/10 condition
2. Is this phone really that bad compared to S2 i9100 which I had before?
3. Can I flash the AT&T ROMs here without a hitch on the rogers S2?
Thanks

Make sure it's the SGH-i727R rather than just the S2.
Only one I can answer is 3 - Rogers users here have not reported any issues.

According to Wikipedia, Rogers only sells 2 models:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And I do not think they sell "Just the S2" because i9100 is out of question

could someone please help?

Yes, I know. It has a keyboard. Do you mind answering my other 3 questions please?

If it has a physical keyboard, it's not the i727, which means it's not the same as the AT&T version.

Yes if its the i727 flash ROMs from hear and the other two only u can answer

Sports Arm Band For Nexus 4

hey there, i came up witht he idea of buying one, as I seem to need it lately..
Is there any good one on ebay / amazon? What do you advise?
Thanks in advance.

No1 here? :\

Cmon I need suggestions..

I think this accessories bundle include a sports armband...
ebay.co.uk/itm/15in1-Accessory-Bundle-Kit-LG-Nexus-4-E960-Leather-Case-Car-Charger-Gel-Cover-/200911483276?pt=AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item2ec741f18c
You have to complete with the www in he beginning of the url... i'm allowed to post outside links..

From past experience, I would recommend the Tunebelt armband. I have not bought one for the Nexus 4 yet but I will soon. I had a Tunebelt for my Samsung Galaxy S(original) and I was able to use it with my HTC One X, a tight fit without a case, but it worked. They are very comfortable and have a considerable amount of stretch to them. You may be able to get one of the ones designed for a larger phone if you plan on using a case with the Nexus 4. Make sure you measure your arm to see if you need the extender which is sold separately.

Here is a link that shows what model to get based upon what device you have:

If you want to unlock your SIM and you have completely cleared the dues to your provider, approach them for a way. If you have not paid off the phone, it is illegal to attempt to unlock the SIM and XDA is not the place for seeking help.
I am closing the thread now.
