Hi
I took the plunge and bought the S4 clone/knock off No1 S6. It arrived in the UK from Hong Kong (day after it was posted! great service from Android-Inside). First impressions are that it is a good phone with a great screen. I wanted to post a reply in Manuxo's thread but as a newbie I'm not allowed. If anyone has any (basic) questions about the phone/spec etc please feel free to post.:laugh:

Hi jw54,
Can you use a normal s4 case on this phone?
Does the battery last long?
Hope you do a review on it.
Thanks

Had this phone a week now but will be trying to get a replacement for two main reasons:
1. Phone constantly freezes and reboots. I've done a factory restore but has made no difference.
2. Phone will not connect to mobile data - tried everything suggested by my network (vodafone UK) but nothing fixes the bug.
If the phone did the basics correctly I would be more than happy.
The next part of the adventure is to see what kind of customer service I get from Android-Inside
In response to your questions - battery lasts OK but obviously due to restrictions I've not used the phone at full throttle. I bought a cheap case from Ebay - the fit is not great but that's probably due to the case. I think better quality S4 accessories would fit fine.

You can ask your phone to be replaced but every phone with this version of android installed (4.2.1) have this issues so i think it is better to wait an software update.
If you ask for a replacement you can wait for a lonnnggg time until you have your phone back.

So is there a custom rom for this phone or at least root instructions? I'm not very familiar with the android environment, so I wouldn't want to brick the phone. Not to mention that its customer support would be pretty much non existant... :/

Did you buy from "CHINAPADMALL"
update
No - i bought mine from android-inside.com which is now called anybuying.com????
Just a word of warning - after much tweaking and messing about it's now working reasonably well. However don't expect this to be a genuine alternative to a Galaxy S4 or iPhone, there are too many issues and problems. the best place to look is 'mychinesephone.com' where you will find loads of info. they also have a shop where you can buy the phone if you still want one

Hi there,
I'm considering buying this phone: chinaecarts com/samsung-galaxy-s3-12ghz-dual-core-48inch-mtk6577-android-40-16gb-phone-p-3095.html
However I've never bought from them before. So, has anyone else had any experience with them before? Are they safe to buy from?
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately I decided not to order, because I looked at other reviews and many other people said that they got scammed by Chinaecarts. Also many people have mentioned that they are unable to contact their customer support at all once they have purchased(/been scammed).
Moneygram specifically say on their website not to use it to pat for items, and that it could indicate a scam.
A real shame because Chinaecarts appear to be the only seller selling this phone. I may still buy a MTK6577 device (now I'm looking at the Haipai X710d) so long as it is the best I can get in my budget of £190.
tl;dr: I wouldn't recommend buying from them.
The general rule of internet is usually, if it's too good to be true, it is. I guess that even if they would send something (which I doubt) you'll get a "fake" replica or something like that. I'm glad you decided not to order there, since it would be sad if you'd lose your money.

Thank You & Thread Closed
Hi guys,
I've bought my HTC One XL directly from Australia, through Telstra. But now I live in Brazil
Well, I bricked my phone pretty hard. I even bothered reading all the topics about my stituation to see if there was any available solution. Turns out there isn't.
Well, at least through the community. From what I gathered, HTC is able to refurbish it and send it back - or at least exchange for another one.
The problem is, since this device is not sold in Brazil, HTC-Brazil simply don't do any kind of repair on it. So, my only hope lives in a good australian soul accepting to receive my phone and do me this big favour of checking if HTC-Australia would help me - even if I have to pay some technical fee.
I know this forum is not exacly for something like this, but I'm out of ideas. And since my investment was pretty big and I can't afford another one right now, I'm here begging for some help.
If this good soul exists, please, PM me so we can go through details.
Thanks in advance!
I feel you man..what'd you do to your phone? And when you get on the phone with HTC Australia tell them the truth I've seen them take pity on some people for flashing the wrong thingss and making it free to recover

Thanks man. Well, I was absolutely used to the HOX with Tegra 3, once I got the XL I thought I know almost everything. It worked well for a while, but things went sour when I tried to downgrade. I think it corrupts some stuff on the phone, and after that I think it's not possible to install a RUU. Well, I tried to anyway and found out that the hard way.
I was already pretty honest with them. I talked to them online, told them the whole story, but they said they could do nothing for me since I was in Brazil. And, as I said, HTC-Brazil was completely useless, since they don't sell this device here.
That's why I'm trying to find some help from an australian mate here at the forum. 'Til now, I had no success.
I found a guy who does JTAG here in Brazil. Since I'm having a hard time doing it trough HTC, I think I'll try this one last resort. I think I got almost nothing to lose by now.

Hey timmaaa!
I'd need that person to give me an address to send the device, and after that I'd use this address to ask HTC what should I do.
Possibly I'd need it to be sent to HTC or Telstra.
But it's ok, by now I took the second possibility. I sent it to be used in a test with Riffbox. Now all I have to do is pray, as much as I can.
Anyway, thanks for replying!
Hey radjan! Check out mobiletechvideos.com they do jtagging service for about 80$ ...and its an honest site

Thanks man. I found int while I was doing my research yesterday.
Anyway, I found another site, a brazilian one (amigoandroid.com.br) which does the same service. I called him, and he sound pretty good technically, even explaining to me why jtagiing the Tegra version is a no-go. Also, I found some pretty good reviews about him in some brazilian forums.
He also explained to me that this process for the One XL is still in beta testing. But, as I said, I got pretty much nothing more to lose. For me it's ok if it ends up bricked if it makes future bricked devices come back to life.
Beside that, the price is basically the same, but I save money from the shipping and save some time I'd use to explain brazilian customs that the device was already mine, that I was sending it for repair and yadda yadda.
Anyway, thanks for the help. Will keep posted and, in cade anyone ends up screwed like me, they may fin a light at the end of the tunnel.

Dont you understand, I am saying I am facing serious battery draining issue, Nexus 5 is what I am using. All apps crashes, I have to charge my phone 3 times in a day, what else you need.
Rather than arguing like this you should just say you dont want to help.
I will wait for 1 week from now. and then see you in court. I have all emails I sent, I have been complaining, consumer protection emails everything.

Sorry about your displeasure but the only way to solve your case is to go to an accredited service center where they will be able to diagnose your phone.
In other hands you can read some threads in the area dedicated to Nexus 5 where owning this phone users were able to resolve most errors.
Please post your quesrry in one of this threads:

Sorry but we don't know that for sure
If you have a problem with a phone you bought, return it / contact seller
Saying you don't know the seller makes it even more suspicious
You could have purchased a locked phone. Take it to SKT dealership, tell tgem you purchased it seconds hand (used), and they will contact the original owner to make sure it wasnt stolen.

Hey guys,
Have been looking on ebay at phones released around 2-3yrs ago for a new(used) upgrade from my current HTC ONE X... but I'm not familiar with all the smartphone tech, or issues, or what's decent/bad etc..
Originally I looked at the LG NEXUS 5X, then read it's got a fault that causes it to fail/Bootloop (eventually). Few people said, there's other phones in similar price range that would be better, though none suggested any (yet). Then I looked at the NEXUS 6P, but, I read again, these have a bootloop fault too ??
Are there any phones that have gotten a good reputation, probably 2014> that still perform well today, but aren't plagued with hardware faults? I don't mind if I have to repair / reflash firmware etc.. as one reason I look at ebay, hope to pickup a phone for cheap (due to broken.. ie screen, not starting up), then fix it.
Price range, around $100, but obviously price for phone will vary depending on phone and condition etc..
[edit] I should have noted, I'm from Australia, so phone prices vary here. Maybe, if you can, throw some suggestions my way, and I'll look around based on what I can spend.
Suggestions on what to look out for ?
Thanks in advance,
