Try EVO, I have Galaxy S plus and its awesome, but when it comes to ROMS, doesn't have really much. Search the forums for these phones' ROMS and make your choice

s2 international version

HTC EVO 3D, I have this smartphone and it's awesome

I've had a lot of success with Samsung phones. I currently own a Nexus S and probably will be switching to the next Nexus, after the Galaxy Nexus.

Galaxy S2 i9100 is the best! or wait for S3 but it costs more than you want to.. imho..

HTC
for the sheer joy of using HTC phones running ahead with Android

Hey...sorry for that,but i have an problem.
The HTC EVO 3D doesn't disponible in my country
I want to buy an LG x2 or an samsung galaxy s plus.
I think i choose lg x2.What do you think?
What is the best of the two? Not snap out of the qualities both of you, I know them, and who is knowledgeable will answer imediat.As I want to meet someone that has LG's because there's more I know and realize what he could.
Like I said, I find a good deal lg x2

I own a galaxy s plus. It's a great phone but as said earlier, it doesn't have a lot of custom ROM's or ICS. But if that doesn't bother you, you should get it.
I personally don't know much about the LG X2 but from a review I just read they say it's a good phone but the call quality is crap..

My first cell phone is LG, it's white (it was stolen), it's good to use, so I think LG is nice.

For €300 you can get Huawei Ascend P1. It's is slim and fast.
Also check out Atrix 2,and a galaxy s advance.
Dunno if the s2 is in your budget.

[Q] Which device to choose? [Android]

After a lot of time with the N97 and a lot of nerves I decided to buy my first Android device.
The first problem is that I replace a device every 3 years.
The second problem is: after hours in Wikipedia, YouTube and reading reviews I really dont know yet what to choose .
The devices I could think of are:
Galaxy s2 - the best but the most expensive 520€.
Optimus 3D - is it wise to buy the first device that supports 3D? 560€
Optimus 2X - Most worthwhile but two more years will not be old? 399€
HTC Sensation - Do not know him. 560€
What do you recommend?
I advise you to wait for the nexus 3, the n97 should be able to hang on.

the nexus 3 will arrive to my country 1 year after the Launching and the price will be overrated.
I fly next week to italy and I want to buy the cellphone there.
there are really big different between the phones I wrote and the nexus 3?
Get the galaxy S2, also 3D is way overrated. You don't need it at all.
In my opinion 3d on a smartphone is useless, but it depends on personal preference and tastes.
I like lg phones on the hardware side but not on the firmware/software side (too buggy from what I tried, lg takes forever to update their phone's os, etc)...
The Sensation is a great phone, but I like the Samsung more.
If I were you I would buy the S2 (if the high price tag isn't a big problem for you).

And with Samsung giving the Cyanogen Mod developers a phone, it will be interesting to follow the future of this phone.
In your place I would buy a Galaxy S2 Because this smartphone in my opinion is the best device with Android at the moment.
Wait for the new Nexus!
Yup all the way for the galaxy s2, I am a proud user of the galaxy s and it is just great. the possibilities of the phone are just great. And I just love to customize my phone, Roms etc..

LG Optimus Black vs Samsung Galaxy S vs Huawei Vision vs ?

Hello there
I'd need to buy a new phone (cause I lost my Lg Optimus One ) and I need your suggestions... I'm gonna buy a new phone for my b-day (late October) and I can do two main things right now: buy another medium-low (about 200 euros) phone like my old Optimus one or buy a medium-high phone for 300 euros or little bit more...
As far as the 200 euros phone I'm thinking about the LG Optimus Net and the ZTE Skate which with his 4.3 inches display and 800 Mhz CPU seems spectacular for its price...
For the medium phone I'm studying the Samsung Galaxy S (new at about 340 euros), the Optimus Black (new about 370 euros) or Huwaei Vision (still unpriced)...
I loved so much my O1 even if it wasn't a goddish phone, so my question is: what do you suggest me to buy? Another Optimus One @ 150 euros? Or is worth spending 50/100/150 euros more for a much better device?
Thanks in advance to all that will give a **** about me
+1 LG Optimus Black dashing good looks, quality camera, good screen technology...

Htc Desire no?
But of your options I go to Galaxy S, cheaper than lg and bigger community! You have a lot of things to galaxy S, roms kernels support from a good community. I had the pleasure to use galaxy S for a few days and it's awesome. Try miui on it.

Yeah, I've tought about Desire too (original one not S or HD), but I'm afraid about the last ginger update which doesn't seem to be perfect at all...
Anyway I think that the best shot for my budget will probably be the Galaxy S unless the ZTE is awesome and sold at a ~200 euros price...

Which one should I buy: Galaxy R or Optimus 3D?

Hi guys, I'm new to here.
I don't know which one I should buy: Optimus 3D or Galaxy R?
Some of my friends says that Optimus 3D uses TI OMAP4430, its faster. But in YouTube videos, Optimus 3D suck in internet using. Galaxy R is not fast as Optimus 3D but it plays 3 videos in same time perfectly.
I don't care about the 3D option of Optimus. I just want to have a phone which can give me good sound, fast internet using and watching videos, great screen to play games and enough battery time for me.
In here...
Galaxy R is 485 euros/630 dolars.
Optimus 3D is 525 euros/685 dolars.
Thanks.
Get a Galaxy S2. It's amazing. If you want a cheap dual core droid get the Galaxy R.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Yea, LG....???
GS2 or I guess, R, though I'd just fork over a little bit more and get S2.
Or try lg optimus black, best screen ive seen
huh?
I'm either that old-fashioned or LG actually stepped their game since last tech-decade (which isn't an actual decade, but you know what i mean)?
Get a Nexus Phone. It's the best android phone!
I think you can also get a HTC Sensation for the price of the Optimus 3D. If it is avaiable in your country i'd totally recommend the Sensation. If you can spend a little more get a GS2. I bought mine for 550 dollars and it is totally worth it

SGS2. Clear choice.
Check out www.gsmarena.com and use their compare option.
I say Galaxy Nexus if on VZW if not import (if you can) for T-Mobile or ATT. Since this has awesome dev support, Nexii always do. Or just wait for quad core phones CES is next week. If you can't wait I say gs2 on any carrier but VZW

From that list i pick SII.
As posted before check gsm.arena for the specs

Galaxy S II is the clear winner from that list, Build quality wise only the HTC beats it.. otherwise for dev support, playing games & good battery life Galaxy S II wins
Samsung galaxy s2
Fastest
Vivid Screen
Light, Thin
Most Devs
Motorola photon 4g
I don't really see any major pros compared to the other devices
Htc sensation
Sense
The back of it looks pretty good, made of aluminium.
Lg optimus 3d
3D
If you value 3rd party dev support, then I would probably pick samsung or htc, as they have rather big dev community
cheers
so its mean the SGSII is good form all aspects .... guys i want a phone which has good quality . a phone if which will drop form hand and phone can handle the drop i think you guys understand what i want o say

are you sure about that?
they always break their promises, just like Motolora
i actually find Samsung to be the only one that actually listen to what customer wants, and they have been doing great at it these last 2 years
i would go with the GSII

not sure if you have seen the drop test of Galaxy phones vs Iphones
but just today i had my first hand real life experience
took the phone out of my front shirt pocket, shoulder height and my fingers slipped, it went face down straight to a concrete floor (it bounced like 4 times before coming to a full stop) and it's still alive and kicking, except for a few scratches on the bezel everything is fine.
as you can see from y siggy, it's a SGS2 from Tmo
ok guys i m going to buy SGSII
thanks for yours comments
Just get a samsung epic you can get them brand new for like $200 or so, with a memory card, the II isn't worth the extra money.

[Q] Used LG P500, roughly how much?

Hi there,
My LG P500 recently got hard bricked and I can't bring it back to life with multiple combinations and methods. I have brought it somewhere and they have told me they can try something, if it works I have to pay £15 if it doesn't I take my phone away.
I don't know if it's worth it, I'm probably better off being another one, used of course. Anyone know roughly how much it is worth paying for a used LG P500 these days?
Cheers.
Here in Toronto, used P500s are in the range of $40-$60. If you're in the market for a phone, you could put in a little more money and get a better used phone - the P500 is unfortunately getting old.

I've checked on GSM Arena and LG P500 in terms of the stats is a very good phone for the price, which other phones could you recommend which is a bit more expensive but worth it? Must be same size screen as P500 or bigger.

For around $80-$100, you can get a Galaxy S Captivate/Vibrant (The first Galaxy Phones).
For approximately $150, you can get a Galaxy Ace 2x.
They're both popular ARMv7 phones, with active development communities. They're pretty good replacements for the P500.

No,Try LG OPTIMUS 2X (4“ screen ) ,exellent phone of their time & its first dual core phone in world
Or simply go for Samsung Galaxy S Advance i9070,(4“ screen & 16 Gb internal memory ) exellent phone in midrange catagory.
Both above phones have same battery (1500mAh) and same screen size also.

I know from the prices you have quoted, it is meant to mean that maybe the Galaxy Ace 2 is a better phone, but if you look at the link above, the Galaxy S Captivate/Vibrant is really good also, it has Adobe Flash support which the other one doesn't ect.. But thanks for the advice, I'm going to leave the idea of getting P500 for the moment and try and pick between these two model phones.
Put me in a real dilemma here, that's 3 good phones recommended there, all within about the same price range. I will have to pick them apart after work and see which one I want to get.
From what I can see at the moment is that the Samsung Galaxy S i9000 has a lot more features and support than the Galaxy Ace 2
GT-I8160. The Galaxy S i9000 has WAP 2.0/xHTML, HTML, Adobe Flash support, DivX support which the Ace 2 doesn't.
The LG Optimus 2X has the Adobe Flash support along with DivX/XviD support, 2nd camera and 1080p video filming.
I'm leaning towards the LG Optimus 2X atm, but I've got to look in to it later, anymore suggestions?
