No it's not. Buy a sensation if you care about build quality or gs2 if you don't because it has official CM support.

Gs2 is builds of plastic. I wouldn't buy DS because it's single core and it shows. It also has this weird screen issues. Sensation is dual+ newer SoC. But if you want best devs support Gs2 is the one to go with. What's you budget?

I almost got galaxy s but when i tried to flash a rom onto my friends ace i couldnt get any to boot and i dont want to risk having to stay on stock rom :laugh: and the hd screen is too big for me. Max 4". not trying to be picky but i like my phone to be able to fit in my pocket
One problem is, you can't guarantee that any up-to-date jb (CM10.1) roms will boot on the device, take a look at the non-sony panel guide in the general section...

Thankyou for that information. If that is the case maybe ill ask the ebay shop and if they dont know ill buy and if its a hitachi i might return it as there is a 14 day return policy and so id be able to return it. But even if it is hitachi does auto brightness work?

Sense roms are fully functional on both panel types. Old versions of cm10/10.1 can be booted with a special kernel, but, if I remember correctly, the brightness is stuck and can't be changed.

In my personal opinion, this device is amazing: perfect size (3.7" screen), and an amazing android development: I've recently installed CM10.1 and the phone is incredibly fast (without OC).
But if you are not interested in custom ROMS you can also buy "non-branded" android devices: they are much cheaper.
-S-
well with that budget Desire S is a perfect device
may i suggest you to buy even this (only 20 dollar and u have a NEW device)
there are even other part if u find something broker New cover
or maybe a Orange one

Simple as the title says, i'm just curious is there any point now to get one.
My intentions are simply to just have a fun, i don't want to activate the phone.
I'm currently a Samsung Epic 4G user, is it worth me to buy this phone?
I found one off craigslist for 100$ and it has bad esn.
Would there be any use for me to get this phone?
Thanks in Advance please don't flame.

A bunch of people will likely say you should wait for the new fancy quad core around that illusive corner or you should get that shiny new joint with the bells, whistles, and whurlies. and to all that I just say, ask yourself these questions:
1. Who has the best development community?
2. Who's been running ics for 5 months now?
3. Who has best mix of functionality and performance?
The answer, my friend, is we do. I learned long ago that hardware is just a hardwired piece of crap without development. And our development, in my opinion, is among the best. And our hardware is nothing to play with either. In fact, I don't think the software is at a level to really use the new hardware. It's like running windows 98 on a quad core machine... Why would anyone do that?
I should add, all this is considering you plan on rooting and flashing. If not, get something else.
You without me is like Harold Melvin without the Blue Notes...

Well of course I'm going to root and flash lol I'm no noob at all just wondering why is it that it has boot loader? And funny thing is the epic has all of the same specs except has a KB, Sd Card Slot, And Soft keys actually light up brighter haha. But ill have to give this a thought, BTW is it really hard to root it? I remember for the Epic was simple and easy.

If you just want to have fun then heck yeah buy it! Haha, there's a bunch of ROMS to flash and probably the most ICS ROMS that are stable besides the GSM NS or the G Nex. You can make it your dedicated mp3 player to lol, I've heard that our NS's have some of the best audio hardware around coupled with voodoo sound And yes it is SUPER easy to root!

Voodoo is an awesome addition to the Nexus, but you can always make it even louder with the Loud Volume Hack
unlocking the boot loader is as simple as "fastboot oem unlock" rooting is also really easy, you can turn it into a massacre machine or make it to last a week without charging, a great gallery of modification have come to beeing that give you even more freedom and.. well a lot more. well for 100$ i'd definitely buy it...again

How would it last a week on a small battery? I have the same phone pretty much and had the oem 1500 mAh and on CM7 usuing VR (Scheduler) and Conservative (Governor Clearly lol) and was heavy UV as well and can barely break 15 Hours. Now I have a hyperion 3500 mAh And most I've gotten is 2 days with about 2 Hrs of actual screen on time. I hopped on netflix other day and straight watched it no interuptions except after movie wifi went out and turned it back got 6 Hrs on battery and about 5 Hrs and 30Mins of actual screen on time. Phone was awake the whole time pretty much. I can post screenies but a lil later busy right now. If it can last you a week what are you doing? Are you actually using the phone haha? Thanks for the input guys considering buying it.
Edit: not to mention I use Juice defender as well to help it out and trust me it lasts longer I've tested it you just have to use correct settings to your usage.

This and the Samsung Galaxy S (aka Epic Touch 4G) are practically the same phone with a different case. Looking at features alone the Galaxy has a microsd card slot and FM radio which the Nexus doesn't. I wouldn't bother buying the Nexus if you keep the Touch unless you're dying for an awesome dev community.

I would say they are saving that space for the sgs3. They already have an HD phone with similar specs to the skyrocket HD. The one X probably took it's place.

The top of the line At&t phone right now in terms of performance is the HtC One X.
8960 1.5ghz dual core with andreno 225 graphics. Faster than anything out right now. But it has some major drawbacks.

I played with the One X and it "feels" much better than the skyrocket does in my opinion. I'm probably going to get it next week and let my wife use my skyrocket. Of course this depends on what Samsung announces tomorrow. If the AT&T S3 has the same screen as the galaxy nexus and the same Snapdragon S4 SoC as the One X then i would take the One X over it because the screen on the One X is the best screen i've ever seen on a mobile phone period. I also found that even the demo units in AT&T stores performed much better than my skyrocket tweaked out at it's best. I *hope* the Galaxy S3 comes with a better screen than the galaxy nexus plus expandable memory, etc. I also hope it's as sexy as the One X. but most importantly I hope it comes out relatively soon cause I don't want to wait 4 months for the AT&T version to come out. rather just get the One X.
Either way I upgrade phones every 6-9 months anyway.
edit: Also want to add that the camera on the One X is REALLY nice. it matters to some people but not to others.
I advise anyone who hasn't to check out AnandTech's THOROUGH review of the AT&T One X at http://www.anandtech.com/show/5779/htc-one-x-for-att-review/1

Maybe I'm just ignorant because I've only had devices with removable batteries, but this seems to be a major problem for me.
I'm a habitual rom flasher, so I know boot loops happen (sometimes quite often). How does one completely turn the phone off if you can't pull the battery? Or what else do you do?

Nexus 4 is more expensive than one s.
The S3 (c2) isnt THAT bad. Its nothing wrong with it performance-wise.
But the custom rom scene is terrible for it, and its **** compared to the One S S4.
Try to get a hold of an S4 device, its so much better than S3. But if theres no way for you to get an S4, the S3 is still a good device if you can live without a bunch of custom roms etc.

Check out HTC's website for pictures, and make sure the phone you buy looks just like the pictures. I am not sure what color you would get, but the design of the device should be the same. If you can remove the back and access the battery, than its a knock-off.

I know all of the review for htc one s..and pictures with him. I want to know something else...i don`t know how to check the imei and all of this stuff.
The IMEI can be checked from system settings<about phone<status. If you are trying to determine is this phone has been reported stolen or something like that, you would probably have to contact the carrier and give them the IMEI number and ask them if the phone is been reported stolen. Of course I don't know if this is even possible with a Romania carrier, thats something you would have to call them about.

Yeah, Nexus 4 price in Romania (in retail stores) is around 500+ euros, but still I've got my One S (Ville, S4) with ~400$, you can get S4 in Romania, you just have to search a bit. There are new ones (online stores) ~500$ and SH ones around 350-400$ with s4 processor. Just keep looking, you'll find a bunch of them

I don`t find the S4, only S3. But it`s such a big difference between them? I don`t use custom rom`s and nothing like that.

There will be quite a difference when playing games, multitasking etc.
like usaff22 said, there's quite a difference when using CPU intensive apps, IMHO S4 is the fastest processor available when comparing core to core performance and keeping in mind that ville and ville c2 have the same price, i would say: keep looking. But if you're not that mad about processor power, s3 will do just fine.

You probably wont notice much of a big difference, unless you got both an S3 and S4 in hand - then the differences become clear, and it is a rather big difference.
So, as long as you stay away from S4 the S3 will seem very fast, but once you compare it to an S4, the S3 will seem extremely slow and you will curse yourself for not getting an S4

Responding to the call for smaller flagship-caliber smartphones, HTC is today introducing the One mini, a 4.3-inch version of its leading Android handset, the One. The physical design and onboard software remain unchanged, however HTC is aiming to price the One mini "two price points below the HTC One" and making a few downgrades en route to that goal.
Among the tradeoffs you'll have to make with the One mini is a step down to a 1.4GHz dual-core processor (Snapdragon 400), 1GB of RAM, 16GB of non-expandable storage, and the loss of NFC and optical image stabilization for the camera. The One's IR blaster is also gone, however none of these alterations amount to a materially different user experience when the One mini is in your hands. HTC has cut corners, but done so intelligently enough to deliver "exactly the same experience" as on the company's current Android flagship. The premise is that the compromises are only technical, not practical.

Hopefully this means we get Sense 5 updates ported from the One Mini in a relatively short timeframe!
We're getting Sense 5 official sometime this year anyway.
Plus we have MagioRom now.
Plus that looks like it might be a hard phone to port from. Different chipset, smaller display, lack of nfc.

Has HTC said 2013 for Sense 5 on our device? I haven't read anything to corroborate that, but maybe I missed the press release or something.
The One has a different chipset, too, but Sense 5 made its way to us from it. The smaller display on the Mini is the same resolution as the One X, which would make getting visual resources easier (none of the resizing issues), I think.

Very helpful, thank you
That sounds like a flagship device from two years ago

A new mid-tier device to sell :good:
Already have it, good device... Love the size and screen quality. Only lacking is the Ir for the TV.

Preordered the mini yesterday )
My dad's got the HTC ONE M7, he's happy with it. Hate the lack of no TV App (ir) but I think I'll get over it.
I don't even know when I will get the phone, I preordered yesterday..
EDIT: I called them, they say i got to wait three more weeks. Ouch.

If we can't get our hands on one before then, maybe you could provide Team MagioRom with a system dump from the phone. It'll help towards development.

I like that phone, I don't need something more than that, it's also cheap.
The HTC Sensation may be old, but with the right ROM (e.g. Slimkat) performance is not an issue, hence I consider it a great budget phone. Slimkat is up-to-date (Android 4.4.4) and the interface is blazingly fast. I would not trade in my Sensation...
