I'm considering buying the SIM-free / international version of S7, but I hate Samsung's bloatware.
I've heard Samsung is getting better with this, allowing us to uninstall bloatware from the phone. Is this true? I don't mean "disable," but actually remove the bloatware from the device. On my Tab S, I was able to remove some of it.
Of course, I'm not talking about rooting here, as I know I can go that route and do anything I want. I no longer have time to mess with that right now.
Disable, not unistall

Hey,
I want to buy a new device.
Most likely the S5 Plus, however It's not released yet in my country.
Neither do I know if it's gonna be released soon.
Does somebody know when it's officially coming to Europe? (Netherlands)
Greetings,
Meltina
it is already on sale in France
and there's some firmware available for netherland @ sammobile (vodafone ,t-mobile and PHN firmware !?)

S5 plus is worth waiting... i would spend a fortune for it but its not available here
Better CPU, and better LTE .. Don't think that's a lot to wait for though?
Would rather get pay a bit more and get note 4?
Hi. You can buy it also in Germany. Dont know where you live in the Netherland, but Nordhorn is directly by the border. You can get it there. Cheers
I would wait for the S6 by now. If you are a rooter you might wait for ever for proper tools. That happened to me with S4 4G version
I dislike QHD ;w;
More of an performance guy.
you can root g901f and there's one custom rom and one cwm based recovery
Hi. S6, Note4, Z3....all are maybe better....but also a bit greater. I have big hands but 5.1 or 5.2 i for me not easy to handle with hand.

I got it via Marktplaats (should ring a bell for you)
Rooted it, put CWM on it
Mine came with some T Mobile rom, I downloaded a Vodafone NL rom for it, flashed it with Odin, and that didn't have any branding
I did however remove some bloat apps, and even if you can't uninstall them you can still hide them
Send me a PM if you need help
Not buying this crap again

May I ask you what happened? How you broke it?
It came in like this. A lot of similar issues like that in HK.
Please note that in HK, we order directly from xiaomi and they mail that crap directly to us.
What's wrong ? You don't like Xiaomi's 'margin' feature? It tells you when you should do a <CR>
I bought 3 pcs redmi note prime, two from China and one from Singapore and all working great.

A simple factory fault may happens
Hi,
My gs7 edge is the international model (SM-G935F). I bought it from an official samsung reseller here in Greece. At the back of the phone though everything looks fine (IMEI, S/N, YATELEY UK address) except where the phone only says "designed & engineered by samsung". Shouldn't there be also the "manufactured or made in Vietnam"???
On phone info app everything looks fine. phone was manufactured in Vietnam on 15/4/16
Anyone know anything about this? Please let me know.
Thanks
my G935F doesn't say made in vietnam either
Nothing to worry about
The "made in Vietnam" text is only written on the box.
On my SM-G935F gold version, it says Manufactured in Vietnam on the back.
On my SM-G935FD silver version, it says Manufactured in Vietnam on the back.
My black 935F says made in Vietnam
tapped on #datbombv7EchoeRom
My black does not list place of manufacture on the back.
Mine says "Manufactured in Vietnam".

install phoneinfo some r made in korea like my old note 5 maybe that's why.
Better than what I went through. Mine had weird hieroglyphics on them and suddenly the phone turned into a robot and tried to attack me. Luckily Samsung replaced my phone under warranty.
I want to upgrade from RedMi 1S to RedMi 3s Prime, but I don't have the patience or the strength to buy it from Flipkart thanks to the flash deals(RedMi 1s experience was enough). So I am considering getting one from Aliexpress.I know the I'll be paying more but I am OK with it.
Is it a good idea?, how long does it take to get delivered?
Why don't you try gearbest?

I bought a redmi 3s prime from aliexpress but was from China ( I'm in UK ) . Reason being was that the seller stocked the international version which has band 20 which is needed for some UK networks. Also, the rom was official global version and updated ota without problem. Beware some sellers who will put an unofficial rom on the phone which can't be updated unless you flash the right rom ( can be a tricky process ) . These ' vendor ' roms can also contain malware which can push loads of ads.

Is it better than Aliexpress? I don't know much about both of them. This will be my first experience buying a phone from a site like that.

Ok..is the phone good, quality wise(any damage or dead pixel etc.)? And how long it took to get delivered to you?

No problems at all, sealed in box. The seller was called Xiaomi authorized dealer, not sure if it's true that they're Xiaomi authorized or not, but all OK and delivery was less than 2 weeks which ain't bad for standard free shipping from China.

That sounds promising..I guess I am going to place an order.
Hello!*I have got a problem with my Motorola X Play battery. The problem is that my phone (stock 6.0.1 rom) suddenly shut off when the battery is still at 38%, or 45% or 41%.
I got in touch with Motorola. They can check my phone and repair it but as I don’t want to remain without phone for 1 month or more, I would prefer to buy a genuine battery and replace the original one. Unfortunately Motorola told me that neither them nor any of their Local Service Centers can sell batteries. So the question is: where can I buy a Motorola X Play genuine battery? I can’t find it anywhere: neither in Amazon nor in eBay. Aliexpress has many sellers but no one of them offers genuine ones. Any advice would be really appreciated.
