ATT sucks as of 2008. I canned their service as of last Year after learning they lock their bootloaders on Phones from being downgraded in roms.

I hate that they locked the bootloaders. I wanted to switch from ATT, but the only viable option was T-mobile and their service sucked in my location; my friends with that service always lacked signal coverage.

But ATT sucks for many reasons and I've only kept them for ease of not having to change carriers.

My SM-G900T (GS5 Tmobile-carrier unlocked), the battery was made in China, well after Updating to MM for the last time the phone started bootlooping, I downgraded to KK and it still happened unless if I kept the phone plugged into a wall.

I bought a new battery- made in vietnam- works like a charm

That is very peculiar. I saw that Japanese batteries were going to be used so let's hope for the best with new phones and non explosions.

With my Oneplus 3t, I'm running rooted on OOS 3.5.4 (didn't upgrade to Nougat), and I installed Fdroid to be able to install Adaway. I hated not being to block ads and Adaway was fantastic using the OPO.

Running thst now and working on installing Xposed framework to be able to install expanded desktop, which is probably the #1 feature I miss from my old phone.

you dont need fdroid for adaway, the download page has a direct APK option

Oh? I did not realize that. Thanks. Now I can't remember why I thought I needed fdroid. Perhaps I'll uninstall it and go simply with the stand alone instead. Any other useful things with fdroid?

Picked up a galaxy s6 for $0 down on a 2 year plan

first monthly plan phone in over 14 years

impressed with it over the s5 so far. I got the 32gb model.

Ahhzz · Feb 17, 2017

I do want to upgrade, if for nothing else than the Marshmallow ability to limit the permissions for specific apps. They had it enabled by mistake, but then disabled it in an update. I'd be tickled to death for at least another year if I could get my stupid S4 to root

micropage7 · Mar 5, 2017

damn after updating found a bug on video recorder

Mussels · Mar 5, 2017

tempted to go back to stock on my note 4... probably regret it if i do.

thinking stock + automagisk (the systemless hidden root) so i get the benefits of stock (NFC banking, better camera quality) but upsides of root (ad blocker, debloating)

Anyone bought a new android handset lately??

NTM2003 · May 28, 2017

I'm buying a S8 next month any problems with them?

Not that I know of, Personally I'm not a fan of that unusual screen size of those S8's...
I got a S7 Gold Platinum myself.

NTM2003 · May 28, 2017

Yea I can't be for sure if it's bigger then my 6s plus plus I can use my msi mobo app on android

AhokZYashA · May 28, 2017

im still thinking of getting the XZs or the XZ premium,
gonna replace my slightly aging Z2

FreedomEclipse · May 28, 2017

I think there was an issue where the screen would have a 'red tint' but that should of been patched already on both the S8 & S8+

Prices on the S8 seem to be falling quite rapidly in EU countries atm so I think its only a matter of time where the rest of the world will follow suite. A co-worker of mine has an S8+ and it is a beautiful device.

I dont want to go contract so the only option is to buy a handset outright (or on credit) and S8 & S8+ are beyond what i would like to pay.

Ive been looking closely at the Huawei Mate 9. Xiaomi Mi Mix. the M9 will be easier to get in the UK

NTM2003 · May 28, 2017

Yea I got Verizon in the us and only phone I like so far is the s8 or maybe the new lg v30 or whateve it was

same, waiting for the XZ premium to be released and hopefully carriers around here have it on a contract

erixx · May 28, 2017

i got the XZ refurbished, couldn't be more happy. No way I am spending more, got this for half the launch price... That said: android is such a mess: 3 programs (ooh sorry: apps) for everything: google provided, sony provided, my own choice provided. have Windowsified as much as possible: Arrow launcher, OneDrive, Word, OneNote, Nine (Outlook)... but love blazing fast performance, battery, camara, 4K screen, and sturdiness (it's a tank). And perfect fingerprint unlock.

I'm afraid of using that function on my S7....
My finger tops are little "damaged" sometimes, afraid I can't unlock my phone someday... :fear:

NTM2003 · May 28, 2017

Anyone know of any good phones coming to Verizon wireless USA. The s8 is my number one choice for now but I haven't been following the new phones coming soon.

T-Bob · May 28, 2017

I bought a OnePlus 3T at the end of last year and couldn't be happier with the purchase especially at half the price of an S8 or similar.

Look into the OnePlus 5 that's about to release. It works with any carrier as well.

cookiemonster · May 28, 2017

I am looking to replace my nexus 5x towards the latter end of the year but I am afraid the Samsung or the pixel are both to pricy I have my eye on the HTC U Ultra any views on it.

NationsAnarchy · May 29, 2017

Still very satisfying with my S7

I'm one of those tin foil hat guys for fingerprints. I don't have anything to hide on my phone, but since the courts have ruled that the cops don't need a warrant to use your fingerprint to unlock your phone, I won't use it....

NationsAnarchy said:

Heheh She and I are still on S4s

Never much of one to jump on the latest bandwagon, especially for phones.

FreedomEclipse · May 29, 2017

5.9' @ 1080p or 5.5" @ 1440p. Which ones better?

Mussels · May 29, 2017

Myself and waifu still on note 4's... apart from better battery life, cant see any reasons to ugprade.

At least $20 gets us a new genuine battery we can install ourselves, unlike the new ones (we're each on our third batteries, doesnt bode well for long term life of the newer phones)

Haha xD True thing though, I got that from my mom, she just upgrades phones so frequently

Yes I would be satisfied enough with a Galaxy S4 right now, tbh. More than good enough
