S model
is the S model really that bad? what went wrong with it?
Smiley

the xda2s was the worst thing ever, main problem was the microphone on the device was terrible and people could hardley hear you, and the bluetooth did not work as it should so the headsets did not function properly..
So the XDA2s is ok as long as you not useing it for phone calls

I've got a 2s and a 2i and I think thats a harsh statement. Everyone has different needs.
The microphone on my 2s is absolutely fine. After a short time with the 2i I still haven't decided which one I'm going to keep. Sure the bt stack is better on the 2i (presumably only until the next 2s rom release) but is that enough to make me give up the keyboard? As a heavy emailer I just don't know if I can go back to all those screen taps with the stylus. The 2s has it faults at the moment but after the novelty of the 2i has worn off a bit I'm kinda leaning back towords the 2s.

You do not sell the XDA IIi SIM free and SIM unlocked? DO you ship outside the UK?

OK sorry it was a bit harsh, Only on most of the XDA2s's that i had the microphone worked but people i talk to alway say it was hard to hear me, as if i had my finger over the mic hole, witch of corse i did not. And with the bluetooth not working correct that made macking quality phone calls not possible.
Yes good point with the keyboard some people like the idea of it being there when you need it, and slid away when not needed, but some of them stated to loosen up badlley after a week or 2 of use
For us being a mobile phone shop and a customer caller us but then is having trouble hearing what we say is no good advert.
I will speak to o2 and seee if i can get some ( very few ) unlocked so i can sell sim free anywhere

i saw a qtek 9090 (xdaIIs) loooks HORRIBLE !! specially when the keyboard sticks out....it has 60% chances of breakin apart when the keyboard sticks out....but still i would go for xdaIIs only if it EVER HAD 1.3 MEGA PIXEL CAM (no probs even if the resolution and image quality is like xdaIIi)

I am reside in US and would like to buy O2 xda IIi as well. Applecom can you please forward me some info on how to get one from your shop. Thanks.

Ok, still no luck as far as finding a new XDA IIi unlocked/simfree. Can anyone point me to anyone selling one, or shipping one to the US.
Thanks,
Mike

I can get you an XDA IIi unlocked, brand new.

Or just get one from O2 for £384 with full support and warranty.

Howto identify the model

Hi,
Am planning to buy a N1 (from ebay india) to sink my teeth into Android (not just the app development part).
Just wanted to know if there are several different models of the Nexus one out there? And if so how to identify each.
Also as I'm getting it off ebay wanted to make sure I was not getting a fake. So does anyone know how to identify if it's a fake when I receive it?
TIA

Theres only one model of the Nexus, the Nexus One.
How to tell if its fake... i dunno. Maybe the ebay description :-/

Check out the FCC number on the back to be sure whether you're getting the 850/1900/2100 version or the 900/AWS/2100 version.

Do this! Make sure you get the right version for you!
(FYI - if you don't care about 850/1900 vs. 900/AWS, you should know that the 850/1900 is no longer available, so ebay prices for it seem to be $100-$200 more than the AWS version [which can still be had as the dev phone from google])

jeez, dude...understand the question!

And also it'd be good to know if it's the AMOLED or SLCD model. You can tell the difference by the way it looks booting up in a dark room. What I don't know is, are there any differences in the model #s written on the back of the phone for the SLCD models?

Thanks for all the info folks.
But is there any info that I can ask the dealer (from the packaging etc.) to determine if it is a genuine piece.
And any way to confirm its the real deal once I get the phone (while booting or something)?
Just trying to be careful as I can't afford to waste too much (still studying ), and I don't want to get some cheap chinese fake.
TIA

If it's a knock off, it's not going to be genuine Android, so it'll be obvious.

[Q] LG Google Nexus 4 Motherboard Replacement

Hi everyone,
As in my title you can understand, i have a nexus 4 with broken motherboard.
My phone is purchased from U.S., but i'm living in Turkey. So i can't send my phone back to U.S. to change it to a new one.
I have another option, to buy oem motherboard and replace it self in my home.
So i found the motherboard BUT, there are T-MOBILE NEXUS 4. But my nexus from Google.
My question is, will it work, if i buy this motherboard and replace it with my broken motherboard?

There is no difference between the nexus 4 from tmobile or Google.

problem with micro sim
Very interesting discussion.
Maybe i have to do your same task, because my n4 don't read anymore micro sim
Do you think could be a sw problem or could be an hw problem and i have to change logic board? If yes could you send me where to buy it?
thx verymuch
PS: do you think is possible that UMIDITY (and not WATER( could broke my phone in this manner? (i have to change also battery and connector charge to usb)

dear all
sorry for the " strange question" , but I have just received an offer to buy a galaxy note 3 N 9005 ( at a very nice price..) BUT the seller told me that this version is without the GSM funtion, only WiFi.....( even if the HW is equipped with the SIM slot )

Is it possible ??

I dont see any reason why you wanna buy a demo version of the phone since some features are limited and I m sure its not gonna be less than $500.And you can insert sim in demo versions,so I dont know what he is talking about.
I sense hoax in this deal,be careful!

thanks

first of all, thanks for your contribution
the interest is just to understand how this proposal can be "dangerous" ; on the base of your reply I understand :
a) it is true that some " demo version" could exist
b) it could be not interesting if the price level is near 500 USD
now , few additional question
c) could even be really " without GSM module" ( = could be a completely different HW vs the last version..?) ; I wrote that it has the slot for the sim card , But I would precise that this " seller" told me that it is not working !
d) could it be a SW limited version , so maybe an upgrade could unlock the GSM part ?
e) could this be a reasonable risk vs the low price of 280 € ( approx 350 USD ?)
thanks again

Demo versions are nothing but the versions received by retailers to display the model to the customers and its never meant for buying!
No,Note 3 does not come with Wifi versions only,although it has a slot for Sim but since its regional locked you cant use it in imported countries but you can unlock it but why risk it all?
I would suggest you to buy a new Galaxy note 3.
And its alright!

Update:I just now inquired with the retailer and he confirmed that it does with come a sim slot but you cant insert a sim and like I said many options are limited and you should not be selling it according to the ccompany!

Owners who bought from AliExpress, post here please

For those of you who bought the OnePlus One on Aliexpress, can you please post your experience with the seller, which version you bought, whether you have 2G,3G,LTE, and what country and radio frequencies your carrier uses? But most importantly, how is the phone? Since it is from China, there is always that worry that the box wasn't in good condition, or worse, you got a fake.
I understand there was some discussion in the OPPO mart thread, but I think it would be better to have its own thread. Who knows how long it will take for us to get our hands on a OnePlus One at this rate... I'm considering buying from Aliexpress.
Owners who purchased from Ali Express and received their phones, please answer the questions or do not post

Hello,
This topic is very good idea. I bought on aliexpress now I'm waiting for shipment. I'll post my experience as soon as I get my device.

I bought one from AliExpress and it's awaiting shipment. We'll see how it goes.

Hey Me too bought the 16GB from aliexpress, the vendor is J&K Technology CO.,LTD , Below is the link for product, The seller is so user friendly on chat & on message center, I will highly recommend this seller, Below is the product link,

Can you tell us how much internal storage there is when you get it? I'm not getting the 16GB but I figure others would want to know. I see that on the 64GB version, you only get 54GB of internal storage.

Right 64gb device will give you around 54gb & 16gb device will give you 12gb, As still i have not got my device so can't confirm on that but other device with same size gives the same storage.

What's EE?
So you don't know if 3G works for you but LTE works? What frequency does your carrier use? Can you just link it to the seller here? Because China versions seem to have different baseband, which may be solved by flashing a hacked modem. I'm not sure though.

So any word on T-mobile? It sends text, but no data. Do you think flashing Cyanogen mod would help?.I got mine from oppo Mart & everything was in perfect condition.
