Hi all. I'm trying to find the best phone for me and I value your input. I have had all of the Galaxy Phones except for the S5. I really am big on flash and eye candy. I'm trying to decide which At&t phone to get next between the LG G3, S5 and the HTC One M8. I'm obviously going to want to root it and such, but I just want to make sure that I pick a phone that I'm going to be happy with. I currently have the S3 and it does what I need for it too, but I just want a bump in hardware and such. So, between these 3 phones, which do you think I would be happier with? Which one has the more flash, glitz, eye candy, etc? Thanks all.

It's time for me to make a decision on a new phone and i am stuck between the Galaxy S3 and the Razr HD.
In the past I haven't cared for Samsung's phones only because they seem to almost never get updates. But now my main concern is which phone is better suited for being flashed for custom roms.
I would appreciate everyones input on which phone they would recommend both for usability and customization.
Thanks in advance.

Well I can tell you personally that I love my GS3, there is tons of dev work on it already and will continue as thus. But it really comes down to preference go to the verizon store and play with both models, thats what I did before making my purchase.
So my GNex is getting long in the tooth and I'm thinking on a new phone. I am grandfathered into VZW unlimited data and run the house off of it to the tune of around 50gb/mo. I was looking at the Galaxy S4 (I do like Samsung) but it seems pretty darn locked down in regards to being able to run custom ROMS on. Any input on what else I might consider? Obviously to keep my current plan, I'll be buying my next phone on the open market ...

I am about to buy a new phone. So my questions are as follows:
1.) What Carrier has the most active phone being worked on by developers?
2.) Which phones (regardless of carrier) have the most devoted developers working on them?
Note: Basically i want to be able to be a flash addict and try new ROMS with new features made by decent developers (Although beginner or pro, all programmers deserve respect).
What are your guys opinions on the best Android phone to get? My carrier currently is MetroPCS but i might move to T-Mobile. I do not like big screens. The biggest screen i could probably deal with is the Galaxy S5 and that's because i use the hip clip.
I am leaning towards the Galaxy S5 (Upgrade from the S4).... The Sickness makes AWESOME ROMS for the M919 and i'm looking for a new phone with a similar caliber developer that's just as devoted as him.
ANY opinions or direct answers to my questions are greatly appreciated.
Another aspect the phone should have is that it has a great kernel... I LOVE the KT Kernel. Stability and profiles make it so easy to overclock/underclock.
Thanks in advance!!

There are also several other discussion threads that you probably should review to help you. They are What phone do you wish you had? or

Due an upgrade now. Currently have the one M8.
I am mixed between the LG G5 or S7 Edge.
I've not had an LG in decades and I've not been overly fond of the Samsung rand as I dont or didn't like the menu button lol. I also root my phones and I know Samsung have had issues with bootloops.
I know there are both similar in spec for most.
Which phones do the pubic recommend, Doesn't have to be the ones I've chosen so far?

I will have to close this one. Thanks for understanding.
Well I gave up my lg v20 to go back to the s7 (tmobile). It was an impulse trade. Now I've regretted it because of the lack of development in the areas of roms, themes, locked bootloader, and such. MY question is this, what's your opinion of the s8 and s8+..? Are they going to go down in flames or will there be a resurgence of interest in samsung again?
Your answers will help me decide whether to get one right off the bat or wait for another flagship device that's coming out in the next couple of months.
I can not find a way to delete my posting, I switched it to another section. Please delete.
