Not a fan of the X10? What are your thoughts on it?
No, not really a fan the biggest drawback for me was the screen- it seemed to scratch really easily (i know this can be solved by a screen protector). Another reason is the crappy customer service from SE. I know the devs have rooted the device and it will only be a matter of time before they crack the bootloader but i am impatient and want to flash custom roms now. But apart from that the phone is a solid device. Generally just missed my HD2

Hello my friends here at XDA!!
It brings me great sadness to say you wont really really see much of me round here for a while. I originally planned to make this thread in about a weeks time when i leave for my holiday to Florida for 2 weeks but im going to post now as today i have sent my beloved X10 for repair due to accidental damage. My x10 is not due back till wednesday, the day before i leave for my holidays.
This leaves me phoneless, i do not own a laptop and tbh i rarely have the patentience to use my **** old pc which sounds like its about to take off with the fan spinning so loudly! I odnt know if any of you notice but 99.999999999% of my posts and pm come from my xda premium app or tapatalk for this very reason!
On the plus side when i get back from my holidays i will be up for an upgrade on my contact and be able to get a better newer phone. When i find something i really like and want i will be leaving you guys. I will pop in of course to 'visit' and when i can i shall post before my holidays. I have a full time job and girlfriend and fairly active social life so dont expect to see much of me is all im saying and when the time comes to move on permananltly il leave you all know.
So really this is just to say you wont see much of me round here for perhaps about 3 weeks give or take a few days.
Peace and out,
Steve
PS
Im open to suggestions for new phones to get and reasons why. Im staying with android and dont want a sgs2
Bye for now..............
Hey Steve,
Hope the effect of cider wears off your x10 soon!!
Enjoy your holidays man!!
As for the new phone... stay with us mate! jk
can you please mention the reason you dont like SGS2 i think is the best option for replacement phone
Wait for new nexus phone...that is what I would do.

and its really better to wait for the next Nexus phone!!
Hi Bro,
It is strange not seeing you around today as i know you will be missing all the fun of the bootloader unlock. What a time hey to get your phone drunk, i bet you not do that again mate lol.
Well i hope you get a phone sorted quick and that you enjoy your hols, maybe when you get back you can sort out another cheap x10 so you can play around with the unlocked bootloader with us all but if you get upgraded maybe you will not want to bother as you will have something better, well hopefully.
chat when you can mate.
What to say i feel bad
I know exactly how you feel, my x10 got stolen and vodafone didn't have any x10
They gave me Neo instead and its a awesome phone and all but with the bootloader unlock now I'm gutted...
Have a good holiday mate

lol you're sad about that?
dude that's the best thing ever.. the neo processor and gpu is a hundred times better. plus true multitouch
the x 10 bootloader being unlocked isn't going to amount to what people think.
you lucked out huge.
it is tomorrow i leave for my holiday, 2 weeks time il be back and hopefully have a phone, mine still isnt back from repair, im leaveing for manchester airport at 5am uk time so looks like no phone to take on holiday. Im sad without it and iv missed loads since iv been gone only one week.
Hi all I got my HTC One M8 this morning via CPW in the UK ordered last night and arrived at Lunchtime today, good service. A one hour walk through of all the features I could before my battery died.
Feel free to ask any question will check back on the thread regularly over the next few days, if anyone wants me to test any apps or games just let me know.
I am at your disposal

Are you saying the silver color looks more like white? I liked the silver on the M7. Is it a lighter shade on the M8? I have no interest in the gold. It's the gunmetal grey or silver for me.

I went for the silver M8 like you i like the M7 silver it felt premium and it still does on the M8 only softer in a weird sort of way.

same here, first launch event, matter of fact this is the first time i have won any contest, and supposedly they have goody bags for us invites,,sounds like a lovely few hours of asus showering us
I'll see you pals there! I've been invited by ASUS for quiet some time now! Hopefully I'll be helping or attempting to help to develop for the device if I have time! I haven't used Android in a while but I honestly can't wait for the release of this device.
I'll be there.
I'll also be there, look forward to replacing my OPO!
you guys have any thoughts on which version they will be giving us, my thoughts its gonna be the 2.3 processor with 4gb of ram and 64 gb on storage, my reasoning is they want to give us a crankin model so we can praise it with lots of love and joy on these forums and others,,steve

We will see when we get there I'm pretty sure you are right though, but let's see when we get over there! Oh yeah, and as I hear the bootloader are locked as of now so whenever you see an ASUS employee ask them when will we be receiving an unlock so we can start development! Heh.
I will be there as well. I pre-ordered 2 Alcatel Idol 3's also, so it will be nice to compare the two.

So that was a fun time. Met a few AndroidCentral people, a few from XDA, and a whole lot of people who won contests to go. I honestly thought it would have ran longer, and was glad it didn't. Pretty cool grab bag as well, and I was lucky enough to snag the red version instead of the grey.
Oh nice on getting a red version! I immediately switched the stock cover out for the view cover anyway, though.
I am liking the view cover...more than I thought I would. the rock garden was a nice touch...

Color doesn't matter. Look under the phone/usb tray in the big box. They threw in a window-flip cover.

(nod) I don't use cases either. I'm not keeping the phone, though. It's really nice. I actually like the form factor better than my Nexus 6. Unfortunately, both T-Mo and AT&T are awful here in CT. I'm bouncing between 0 and 1 bar on the Zenfone and have full bars on my N6.
I asked for red and they gave me a red one. I was happy

I overheard you say that immediately after you got yours, I asked about what other colors they had and the gentleman sure made it sound like he would have given me a red one if I asked nicely. But I wanted black
It's cool that they had a bit of flexibility.
Jaysus145 and I rolled up from Harrisburg not knowing what to expect. We were really blown away by the hospitality and had a great time. The Zen Garden is in my girlfriend's cubicle already. Nice touch by them including a T-Mo SIM as it gives people with coverage concerns a chance to give it a try. My coverage here has been pretty solid but on the ride home, it was very up and down. Coming from VZW, that might be an issue, but it does give me an option for when my contract is up.
Good to (sort of) meet some people at the event. Good times.

I was able to snag a red one as well. The color is really growing on me!
I was at the event as well and was happy to meet some of the people and get a free phone to review and play with. I got the red one as well...seems many people did not know...that they could just ask for a red one lol.
anyway for people who did not go or just like cool pics here is a link to my pics on google+ https://plus.google.com/+JoeyRiz/posts/2rJzdmLBGh8
Have you all seen this?
https://youtu.be/wB6MId15cpo
Man... I already bought my edge and they come out with this.
Well as youll know it wont be available stateside or Europe or here in bonnie Scotland. Its a nice edition but im more than happy with my Black Sapphire.
Although if i had the choice hmmm lol
The color combi is nice. However, the Ironman design at the back could be a turn off for some people who aren't fans.
I'm not really sure how coming out with new colors is gonna boost sales. Initially they already had black, white and gold. If someone would want an S6, he would have bought it by now (or maybe wait for blue/green)
I'll be 42 next month. I think I'm past the point where I find a phone dressed in super hero dress cool ?
