hi
Some of the Samsung lead phones have excellent support here on XDA... I have a GSII etc...
I was wondering which of the "dual sim" phones have almost equally excellent support on the forum here.
I admit dual sim phones are not available every where, and also as not as popular..
BUT I still have the question....
I would like to buy a dual-sim phone which I can easily install a custom rom, and a custom kernel...

Simple. Non. Dual sim phones are still too rare and not supported by any of the major US carriers. No Dual Sim phones have any real support here.

I thought there were a number of folks here from Europe India and China here...
I guess its a common idea in those countries to use a dual sim phone, where one sim is your
personal sim and the other on is provided by your workplace/job...
Which is why Samsung/HTC and alll the major players have dual-sim or multi-sim phones...

Oh there are. Many of our greatest developers are in Europe but very few use dual similar phones. No one has picked up development for them so they never get a forum. XDA is a US based site so I think that is why we see less of this really.

interestingly the Galasy SII-i9100 is NOT a US phone....
yet it has so much support on the forum here
the same goes for the Galaxy Note-II i7100 and various other phones which are not really US phones...
My next upgrade will be the S4, but I want the Exonys version, which wont be available here in the US and may be not in Europe too...
I wish T-moble with its new plans brings the Exonys version here, but thats still a dream...
Dont know if that is a problem or Qualcomm is blackmailing Samsung with Patents in not selling the Exonys here...
Samsung went head-head with Apple, but I bet they dont want to do that with Qualcomm..

It maybe the fact that alot of devs have threatened to leave samsung because of that exynos chip
Do you know which is the cheapest android smartphone in the world now?
India phone or china phone?
Can you say specific?
I know that the international model is supported in India. (Airtel and Vodafone)
But I'm thinking of importing this phone from China. They have a different kind of network some TD-WCDMA which is not supported in India. Will the Chinese model work in Indian 3G? I've asked around the OPO forums and nobody seems to know. I've messaged their support team but they haven't replied. Any ideas about this?
"They have a different type of network..." I think you just answered your own question. Plus the fact they aren't releasing it in India you're probably better off getting the international version or getting another phone in India. You guys are going crazy for this phone!

BESIDES swappa. where can i buy unbranded smartphones that are legit
i tried to google but all the stores i click on only sell some chinese brand knockoffs
i want to get a phone like google pixel or galaxy s8 or note 8 without all the garbage from tmobile but cant find where to buy them
and also does unbranded phone have all the frequencies to work on any network or is it missing some?
Hello everyone...
I am transitioning away from iOS thanks to the Z Fold 2 after 13 years (on iOS since the 3GS) and one of the biggest concerns I have right now is whether the US version of the phone is compatible with NFC-F (FeliCa).
I have family in Japan and having used Suica alongside my phone and Apple Watch made all the difference in the world while there...
My question: I remember reading somewhere that the hardware on the Z Fold 2 is exactly the same everywhere... Considering there is no chance on Earth a manufacturer would release a flagship in Japan without FeliCa, my hope is that the US version will also be compatible with it.
Where can I find the list of specific SKUs (assuming Samsung has something similar to Apple)?
Thank you!
Samsung differentiates their products by market. Typically features are common within individual market groups (EG: Europe, Asia, U.S.). This year the radios are different in each phone with 5G bands varying by country. Instead of SKU's Samsung alters the model numbers. So there's no assurance that phones from one region will support all the radio bands and features from another region. Here's the Fold 2 page from the Samsung Japan site. There's probably a chat or phone number to call and they'd be able to answer your question.
