Yo, guys.
I just bought today s7 edge black onyx, and i cant believe how awesome this phone is. Also, i got Level On Pro Wireless headphones, which are great too!
I have used iPhone for 4 years, and i can say i'm pretty new about this whole stuff. Can you commend me some tips, tricks, some android forums, and all related to s7 edge.
Thanks!
Welcome to Android and xda?
99.999999% of everything you'll need, want to know, and that you need but don't know you need yet is posted here. My advice is to spend a while (a week maybe) getting to know your phone. Don't try any tweaks or similar yet. And read read read read! Everything is here. It may be buried deep in the fora, but seek and you will find.
XDA is the right place for you buddy @vukashinp

Yeah, thanks guys. I loved to jailbreak my iPhone and iPad, but i think i am not going to root any soon. ???? But, i like to read a lot about mobile devices, is there some good android site for news? ????

Hello all! I am new to the Droid/Atrix world, moved from an iphone 3Gs. I am concerned now about reading all these reviews of either the atrix or ATT or the combination of the two! Also can someone explain "sideloading" to me, I know that rooting is jailbreaking to the iphone world. I guess I just need to do lots of forum readings!!!!!! Thanks for all help that will be given!
sideloading is installing apps that are not from the official android marketplace. This honestly wasn't that big of a deal until the thirdparty markets opened (amazon, etc). There are ways to do this without rooting however. Good thread in the theme/app section about how to use the amazon market without rooting.
Thank you very much for the info!!!!

Not giving you crap but more a heads up. Droid is a phone Android is the operating system that runs it (and the Atrix)
No issues man! I do know the difference between the phone vs OS. Believe me I will ask stupid questions in the future, just wait LOL!

Just saying hello I just got this phone, I came from the tmobile gs2. the tmobile gs2 was nice but this phone is sooo much better, cause of the exynos and much more development!!! glad to join the team!!
In that case, I'd like to warmly say ...
I hope this thread isn't a sign of things to come from your time here.

Im sorry I wont be making any more pointless threads. Im just excited to have this phone.
Well, I would like to say welcome, and glad you are happy with your new toy.
Regards
Congratulations on moving to the real sgs2 yo
Just be careful and don't damage it lol
This is a pointless thread that I would make as soon as I got a toy like this! Love my phone still and its been over 9 months. Phones never last me longer than 6 months. Congrats on the new phone
Welcome aboard fella. Enjoy your stay..Here you can get women, smoke cubans and above all have a sexy gorgeous phone named the Galaxy S2....Welcome to paradise

oh dont worry first thing I did when I got home was root it and try out codeworkx's cm9. Besides the little bugs I love it, cant wait till the official release!!! That was a big part of me getting the phone, it'll have ICS on it way before the tmobile gs2!!
Btw if you want to root.... its so easy on this phone
Enjoy
I have had this for 2 month on t-mobile and am very happy.
Well, the rest 100.000 of us here on the forums also got this phone. Now imagine if we would all create a new thread to express our joy. Wouldn't that be a cesspool? Just saying...
Yeah, good job, it's a nice phone. Take care of it.

Thats what i did after unboxing
Congratulations
First of all, congratulations on getting your new phone. I can only say that this phone is still one of the best out there, especially for the developments made for this phone (credits to the developers). For me, it was my 1st android phone. So, I had a pretty long time searching for what I can do to this phone to bring out it's inner capabilites. One of them, is to root your phone and install ROMs inside. Since I love to customize my phone, I feel that rooting is essential for me and went ahead to root my phone. If you are considering about rooting your phone, do take note that the warranty will most probably be void

Would anything change?
Instead of creating threads that we bought this device we just spam the CyanogenMod 9 thread and annoy the developers.
It wouldn't cause more useless posts, just different ones.

I received the i9100 as a gift and I use it on T-Mobile, and it sucks to be stuck in 2G. I love this phone to bits, but I'm looking forward to an upgrade so that I can hand this down to my girlfriend since she's on AT&T.

Your thread was bumped up because someone's trying to get 10 posts to post in dev section... Gotta love it. At least his post was a real post, not others like "Hmmmmm..." 10 times in 10 different post.

Question to the XDA big guns.
Will there ever be any plans to start supporting the blackberrys on here, im just curious because i know there is 1 or 2 forums, but none are as good as XDA, and been one of the most common and popular phones of 2011 i own one, so i just wanted to ask, or if you guys here know of any such forums similar to XDA for mods etc ??
Have you tried crackberry.com
GALAXY NOTE
not until the RIMM board fires those two nincompoop co CEO's and then fires themselves for running a once great and innovative company right into the ground..
Why blackberry hasn't had a relevant piece of tech since 2006.
My favorite all time device was the blackberry bold 9000. Sexiest device ever in my opinion. Sad part is nothing has changed since then.
I miss that simple brickbreaker game.
Im confuse?? What BB got to do with SGN forum???

I agree completely, still love my bold, for the sheer simplicity and ease of use and of course the bbm service, i dont like the way theyve gone with the new bolds, not sure a touchscreen bb is worthy, but i do love the 9780, great camera and phenomenal battery life, its a real shame to see bb dying, still has a lot to offer in the right hands.
Thanks anyway you guys for the answers, crackberry seems not to bad, unfortunatley still not as good as xda, im just dissapointed that theres a great IOS forum but nothing for the BB.
Long Live XDA

When RIM sells 1 real smartphone yes i think, not just java phones with a lot of buttons.
Hello members, so i was reading about the GooPhone that is supposedly patented with the Iphone 5 design in China. They are apparently ready to sue apple once the phone is released.
Anyway it led me to a site that has android/windows/blackberry devices.
Now they seem legit, have looked around and seen that there are some reviews, only negative comments are about the long shipping.
My question is, has anyone here ever ordered from this site.
http://www.fastcardtech.com/
I was interested in maybe ordering a device playing with it for a while, then maybe sending to a dev to see if the components would match that of its US counterpart to see if custom ROMS would be able to be installed.
So please read, look, get interested, and chat about the site!!!!

If you want something cheap, look into Huawei, ZTE, Alcatel or Lenovo Phones, most models have decent development and they have great specs for the price.

a 6" phone... holy crap... are these any good? My mother has been wanting a Galaxy note for the screen size but she uses none of the features of a smart phone other than basic calendar and to do tasks. This would be great....

If she really doesn't do anything on it then I would get out for her because 512mb of ram is the same a an IPhone which has fast enough speed for every day tasks not sure if she will need more than 4GB of space but there is a microsd slot up to 32GB so that might help 1GHz processor is beyond overkill for what you said she does so sure why not!

After some careful research, and some digging into chinese forums. These phones are complete fakes.
It seems that they may not ever make it stateside. They also have IMEI problems, so they may work for a week, but after that they seem to start having disconnect problems. Also looks like the GPS will not work, being that it is based in China satelittes will not transmit here.
I almost bought one today, like 3 times, but after more and more digging, I have decided not too.
This seems to be a complete scam. There are a bunch of sites claiming fraudulent accounts among the site as well.
What seemed so nice quickly slips away.

Ouch... Buzzkill... Guess I should've done a little more digging before posting those sites. BTW, do you have any reference links?
I first went on www.fastcardtech.com/forums and was reading the results of users. Alot sounded pretty upset. Although there are not very many replies, there are some feedback.
I asked a question about a device, and then asked the same question again 2days later, and got a different answer. I will do it again, and get a screen shot so that I can show you all. There was another forum in XDA about the site, there are some saying its legit, others not so much.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=561534
Will post back with more.
I am still considering ordering one, just havent decided yet. I know as soon as I do that they will announce the Note 2 for Tmobile.
I have found a few more credible sites, there is,
www.koobay.com
www.exportandgo.com
Upon searching the fastcardtech site brands devices to companies that dont actually have these devices. For instance, I have found the HDC (china phone maker) and they list their products, then you reference the FTC site and there are thousand of HDC branded devices that are not actually HDC brand!
I've seen an apple S4 by them. The screen res is terrible.it had virtually no memory. Build was terrible. Do not waste your money. I'm sure no rom with work on them.

any of these knockoffs will not work with any of the regular roms, you would have to make a rom for that knock off device model.. as you can imagine without a lot of people owning them your chances of getting a good rom is slim.
Hey team XDA ?
I have sold my T580, and Honor 10 to bag this gorgeous hunky phone. But im upset it is not Arm64 firmware, because i cant get to play Life is Strange . Followmsi did a gorgeous 64bit version for the t580 that worked for the game. I so need a 64bit for this new model. Yeah i know its like so new, but just wondered if anyone has their development mits on one, and if theres any news of a 64 bit rom in the pipeline aka like lineage-16.0-20181011 (64-Bit). I so need this ready for game to while away the time after my surgery. ?*?
Love and thanks hugs, Katdroid
You're posting in wrong forum, it's for 2016 not 2018 model. I'm not gonna judge your decision or even fact that you want to play on Android that's on you but on XDA there is a rule that you don't ask for job to be done. You can ask for help but you don't ask people to do something for you. There are barely any people that own new 2018 Tab A and it will never be a lot of people. Tab A doesn't get too much attention(just like any other android tablet) despite fact it's quite good(but overpriced tbh) so just be patient, who knows, maybe you'll see Lineage there one day but you never can be sure about THAT. 2016 model was considered really good, new one isn't as well received

It doesn't seem like this was a square request for development in the original post. It looked like a query for the status of the 2018 model software.
