[Q] Looking for some insight

It is time to replace my phone, the battery doesn't hold power anymore and it randomly shuts off. I'm considering buying another phone but I'm indecisive as to which one. I'm interested in the HTC One S myself but I'm sure there are better ones out there. Which one would you guys recommend?

Carrier?
Are you planning on sticking with HTC?
Details, man.

The OP is so vague, so imma offer this suggestion, as it is what I suggest to everyone that asks about smartphone suggestions. I like to watch them suffer: http://www.apple.com/iphone/

HTC One is dropping in march. Might as well wait for that.
Sent from my HTC mytouch 4g using xda premium

if you would like to stay with HTC, i'd say go with the new One coming soon.
if you're looking for other options...
i personally would highly suggest either the Galaxy S III or the Note II (considering how big you want your device to be), and being that the Galaxy S IV will be announced soon, i guarantee that the S III's price will drop, making it much cheaper than it is now. the Galaxy S III is a great phone, and just because the S IV is right around the corner, doesn't mean the S III is not a good device. it's specs may not be the best on the market today (stupid U.S carriers and dual core 1.5GHz CPUs...oh well made it up with 2 GB RAM i guess...), it definitely meets and exceeds the average user's needs and wants. i love my S III, and i use the heck out of it.
TL;DR: GET THE S III BECAUSE IT ROCKS!!!
P.S: might wanna wait until a Nexus 4 user comes along and posts his opinions on that device as well though and then choose, as these two devices are the hottest of the market today.
but if you can wait, then wait.

Get a Nexus 4.

I'm sorry the nexus doesn't have cheesy features like sliding the side of my hand over the screen to take a screenshot? Or were you talking about the unnaturally vibrant and over saturated colors with the screen? Or maybe you like the the overall colorfulness of the TW OS? You like rainbows?

Holding the power button down for ten second resets the device. It works every time on every Nexus 4. My battery lasts all day, everyday. And I don't need extra space and don't use the cloud. I currently have 7 GB of free space.
It fits my needs perfectly.

Rainbows are nice. What's your beef with them?
No, I don't like the colorfulness of tw, I don't like tw as much as I don't like stock android. But it has more eye candy and features, so I would go for tw if I had no other choice.
But if I did have a choice, like I'm going to have in a week or so when the HTC One drops, I'm HTC all the way.
Put the nexus 4 and HTC One and see which catches more people's attention. Also when I said boring, I never referred to the development of the device as boring. Every one knows development of nexus line up is always on top. I'm talking more about the physical look and UI.

The phone itself is very nice. It looks beautiful and feels solid. It's also nice that I don't have to officially and irrevocably void my warranty through HTC dev.

All you do is hold down the power button for like 10 seconds and storage isn't an issue if you use your phone as a phone and not an entertainment center

'bout $300 to $350 I'm getting my college financial aid money at the end of the month which is a measly $500

I'm really not too fond of touch wiz (thanks to the behold 2) and the colors in the galaxy look rather odd. I usually put a custom rom anyways, I really like MIUI

I still have my mt4g but, I noticed most all developed custom Roms were in a sense, mirroring the awesomeness of the n4. Its so smooth , ui is awesome and battery life is amazing without rooting and throwing a custom ROM on it.

Ordered N4 from Amazon, best way to RMA?

I ordered my 16GB Nexus 4 from a seller on Amazon on December 6th last year, when I was desperate to get my hands on this phone, and this seller had it for only $50 more than the Play store brand new.
Well, now I'm having issues with my N4 and I need to have it repaired or have an RMA done, but since I'm not the original owner I'm not sure if it's possible. The seller I bought it from, who is still actively selling on Amazon, just sent me an email after I asked him if there was any way to get the original order number, and if he can send an email stating that he was transferring ownership to me. All I received was a reply in which he simply said "Nope".
So, now I'm extremely frustrated and not really sure what to do. I need a working phone, but it doesn't look like I'm going to get what I need from the original owner. Any ideas?
Anyone else had a similar experience and was able to overcome it?

I don't know if this is fraud or not but you can tell Google you received it as a gift and they will transfer the warranty over

I told them that it was was a gift, but the rep. said that they need to get some confirmation info from the original owner before they can replace it. And LG told me to call Google. I will never buy an unlocked phone or a Nexus from Amazon. I guess this is what I get for being in a hurry lol.

Strange. I just bought a Nexus 4 on Craiglist (!) a month ago, got its back glass shattered today. I called Google, they told me to call LG. And the LG rep was really nice and gave me a RMA number right away after I gave him the IMEI number. Now I just have to ship the phone to LG and probably pay a hefty sum to have them repair it lol
I guess you can try calling this number that I called: 8007938896
Hope this helps!

If you want to be extreme and really want that RMA you can say that owner passed away. A friend of mine did that and they let the RMA transfer. Not saying you should though.

Credit report and legal action. Refusing to return devices not fully paid is considered theft if said company request return.
Bottom line: Your friend is stupid.

So if I read that right, he has 4 phones that he isn't going to return? His credit is going to be the least of his worries.

His credit is going to get wrecked, they're going to take legal action (Let's be honest, its going to be clear who's going to win and he'll be in even more ****), and on top of all that he's going to have a debt collector breathing down his neck.
Hope he doesn't plan on getting a house, car, bank account, or loan anytime soon.

So your "friend" has acquired at least $2500 worth of high tech hardware across state lines by lying. I would expect at least one and as many as four three lettered government agencies to be taking an interest in him soon.
