TYNT II
FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!
as soon as tmobile rolls it out.. its mine.. muahahahhahaa

If you don't need a keyboard the Polaris is a wicked phone...or maybe a shift if your ballin' out of control.

The Shift is not a phone.. it's like 7+ inches long and is a UMPC...but the Advantage is considered a phone and still fits in a pant pocket..unless it's a guy that's wearing those stupid brand new super tight & tapered wussie looking girlies pants they try to sell in the men'sdept stores that have no pocket space at all.. but if you're wearing like Rockawear or whatever..then they might fit in the pocket.. hehe btw... the next gen of Advantage is coming out... the Enhanced Advantage X7510
Why did you sell the Herald before getting your next phone lined up??
What are you looking for in your phone?? another pda phone? or just a smart/multimedia phone? something flashy or something powerful? with or without FM radio? blablablablablabla.... give us some more info on what you want! Do you need 3G? or 3.5G? or too poor to afford it lot a lot of other people hehe.
.. :'(
did you already get a new one?
Try out the Touch Vogue or Touch Cruise...
or Sedna... or do you if you liked your P4350.. go for a Panda(cool name hehe for p6300) or TyTn II
What's your budget??
Anyone keeping up with news from the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona???
is there a thread for that yet?

Thank you very much for your openions, I baught a TyTn II, Lovely device, Solid and Fast.
Best Regards

This thing is pretty sweet.

Is this a good replacement for my X8?

This phone got a 4.3 inch screen
And it runs Gingerbread
It just cost 150 pounds, thats just 50 more pounds than the X8
and it is going to be available worldwide sim unlocked
but the processor is not dual core
and its not in xda forums

What‘s type of this phone?I think it is worthwhile .

http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_xperia_mini-3947.php
i think this would be better 2.3 and a 1GHz processor

the answer on your question depends on one thing: wheter a cpu is armv7 or armv6, if it's armv7 i'd say go and get it, but if it's not, then i wouldn't recommend it. does someone have any information about that? some accurate specification... i saw different opinions about that on forums. if it is armv7 i would also consider chosing it as my next replacement for x8.

Cheap case
Slow processor
Pointless pre-installed apps
Weak battery

I'd prefer a phone which is officially supported by CM

its predecessor is supported most likely this one will also get that support
and it got so much ram

Don't buy any chinese made phones !
Quality sucks !
I guarantee !
Go for the known brands
Such as SE .. Samsung .. HTC .. Motorolla
And so ON..
Do NEVER buy any chinese phone !

ZTE Skate? I don't think so, that it's good replacement

Its still ARMv6 is it? I won't suggest you to buy it. Because one time later you will regret buying it. No flash player, unable to high quality games, bla3.

I guess it is ARM v6.
Why, because if i am not wrong, i saw a post that, ARM v7 is minimum 1ghz above.

So, you could buy the Samsung Galaxy S1, it´s the second phone after the X8 that got GingerDX!

What do you recommend for a new X5?

Hi guys!
I have an HTC P3451 that I love, but time has come to an upgrade!
I'll buy an Huawei U8800 shortly (hope that's a good deal ) and I'm looking for your expert recommendations for a new user!
What rom? what apps? what settings? what case?
I love my HTC ROM (see below) - is there a similar one for X5?

There is no roms that are even close to it. "What rom? what apps? what settings? what case?"
I would suggest miui or cm7, because they are easy to customize and they are fast. MIUI is more like eyecandy, but there is many miuis right now. Use ret4rds, but if it won't work, use stockwells old. I cant say much from apps, but overclock app most. What do you mean by setting? OC style setting or what? Just use normal powersaving methoids, like turn 3g and wifi off when you don't need them. For case, you should look from this thread in Modaco. and this subforum.

settings, I mean some setup that might be required for saving battery, for example.. nothing special
I'll read a bit about MUIUs

Well, juice defender or app like that, which manages your connections and keeping the clock in 800-1000mhz might be the best batter saver. Also calibrationg battery help. I have found calibration the bes methoid after changing rom.

Honestly DONT get the X5, Huawei dont support it anymore... we've been waiting for a 2.3 update that has never come.
Buy a phone thats actually supported by the company that makes it for more than a month or two after its manufacture.
My X5 is running OK with the Oxygene ROM, but i'd never buy another Huawei again after experiences with this and a previous budget one i got the girlfriend to get her into android (no updates ever came for that as well)
Dont get any Huawei phone...

so what do you suggest on similar prices?

u can try motorola defy ( not defy + bec defy defy plus charges extra bucks only for battery). my friend is using defy since 5-6 months and is quite satisfied . almost same to x5 but has gorilla glass and is water proof. also note that defy has really great support from devs ( i mean awsm support - lots n lots of roms )

I'm a typical female blonde that needs some HD2 help

Can you help me please, as I don't really know about these things.
I found a HD2 on eBay UK, number: 160877136223 - I can't add a link as xda doesn't allow it.
My partners HD2 started failing about a month ago and thought I'd buy her a new one.
What do you think? Bargain? x

Looks good & clean, how much is it if it's this one http://tinyurl.com/96j2tuq
have you considered other models? why the HD2 again?

Its a great phone and it looks good grats!

Thanks mengfei that's the one (as your link shows) and currently only for eBay bidding/auction style only, so only time will tell how much I get it for, as most of the others are either heavily used or terrible sales lots. I've contacted the seller, who has been very friendly and and will happily allow me to collect it from him, as I'm local to his location in East London.
My partner always goes on about how good her HD2 is and (from what I remember) switches between Windows and Android often. I've been using a Huawei Ascend G300 for about a month now and though it's brilliant, her HD2 (when it worked) still would do better, so a new one would be best I feel.
The bids are still very low for it and the additional accessories will go down a treat for me, lol!
Does xda have a G300 forum, as I have some questions about it?

Actually it really a good phone no wait it's a Legendary phone the HD2!
with so may custom ROMs out there & yes you can even dual boot from it.
IF you can get it brand new at around $230 then it's a good buy since used ones go for around $150

Thanks mengfei, the phone is new, has all basic accessories, some warranty even and more bits. It's currently still at a very low price, includes free recorded delivery and only a few hours left!! So I'm very hopeful to get at a bargain!!
Wish me luck everyone

Hey! If u want to buy this phone, and if u like this phone; don't put urself in a standarts like "typical female blonde" u r extraordinary person. U'll feel it when u have the legend believe me. (my english is bad sorry ^^)

I bought a OnePlus One a few months ago and temporarily switched over from my Z2, and just ended up switching back to the Z2 a few days ago. Even though the OnePlus and Cyanogen are a great pairing, the camera quality on the OPO (even if it is using Sony camera hardware) isn't as good as the Z2, and it's faced with the same WiFi and buggy touchscreen issues and random reboots that a lot of Cyanogen builds have. I also have a Sony DSC-QX10 and a Moto 360, and it just never can maintain a strong connection with those devices and will sporadically drop/reconnect when using them. Also, the "Sandstone" backing on the OPO also starts to wear off after a while, and dust seems to build up in the weirdest places along the edges of the phone after being in your pocket for a bit.
It's a great phone for the price, nonetheless, but I just can't see fully replacing an Xperia with a OnePlus at this point...

I believe you are right...
I really thought to buy opo, not to abandon Xperias for good but to wait for Z4 on something different...
Even I was satisfied with Z2 fw...
But then Sony released 167 fw and all my doubts have gone...
You are the fifth one who said opo isn't that good as advertised and what bunch of users said when it was launched...
Tnx for all informations, this was very helpful ?

I flashed Android 5.0 today, in my Nexus 7 and, even it's not official, it's very, very good.
ART is interesting as well, just like whole dev tree...
I can't wait to see what will Sony do on 5.0 UI.
Another great option is to invert framework color, so you can have dark, or better to say black UI in a second, with a one pressed button...
Yes, this is kinda off topic but I just wanted to share few lines and didn't want to spam section with unnecessary thread...
