I currently have a nexus 4 and with a small drop hairline crack half of my digitzer touch screen (upper portion) is unresponsive to touch.
I am currently with Telus, I can if I choose get a S4 for 150 on a 2 year term based on the retention phone call I just had. Can this phone be flashed to a stock image? Like my nexus 4 or would I always have to use samsung roms? I was using Paranoid android for the longest time and liked it very much.
What are everyone's suggestions. I could also possibly buy the samsung from Google Play store if this may be a better option have a us address. I however dont feel like spending $600. But I very well could! I do use T-Mobile sometimes when I travel to the states if this impacts anything.
Thanks
Hunter
questions go in q&a.
you can flash samsung (touchwiz) roms or stock android (aosp-based) roms on your S4 when you receive it.
It can be flashed to the google play stock rom. Check the dev thread for the rom..
Beware that the latest att update locked down the bootloader and is no longer able to be bypassed via loki meaning no roms and no root. T mobile and sprints bootloader is unlocked.

Bootloader has nothing to do with root. Its just not possible to root yet by the old methods.

I would suggest getting it from a store so you can make sure it doesn't have the mf3 update. With it there is I root and messes up a whole bunch of stuff at the moment. imo

So after the phone call its only $99.00 to get switched. I may send my Nexus 4 away as well to get fixed. I probably could have a good crack it, but the risk to benefit ratio. Is just not there. New phone is $300.00 meanwhile the part is at least $100.00 Plus a very complicated repair. I recently just did a macbook air so I know what I am doing. Its just the macbook air was worth a lot more for the price of the component. I am a managerial accountant so I tend to maximize dollars in a cost benefit ratio.
BTW this forum is the best!
You won't be disappointed with an S4. Qualcomm 600 at 1.9Ghz, 2GB RAM, 1080p Screen, Wireless-AC, among other things. It's my baby.

Yea, but with locked boot loader and on mf3 no way currently to flash a custom recovery or rom. I've been looking at it and I'm on the fence.

I know, but with loving my skyrocket and the great devs we have I just don't know right now. Actually I hope it craps out because then the decision would be made. But I might pony up the cash for a ge.
Be careful, this thing cracks even easier than the Nexus 4. When it does, the AMOLED is much more likely to crack than the outside gorilla glass and if the AMOLED cracks, the entire display will be likely dead. Make sure you get something better than bumper-like cases like the SPIGEN Neo Hybrid case, they will still flex when dropped at most angles.
Dropped mine from about 4 feet and killed it. :crying: Samsung will charge you $200 out the door to get it fixed. Which, once it is fixed, honestly makes me want to sell it and buy an off-contract Sony Xperia Z or Xperia Honami (when it comes out) and IMO, the Xperia Z is much more gorgeous than the GS4 Active.
Sorry, I didn't mean to thread jack or anything. I love this phone's feature set, but durability is an important thing when you buy something like this on or off contract. It's an investment that should last the test of time. I understand I dropped it, but all of my previous devices could take a much better beating before croaking.
Keep this in mind, people have had their's crack sitting innocently in their pockets. Buy a GOOD case if you buy this phone.
Maybe Im the only idiot who keeps all their phones but I just think it will be cool to have them all somewhere down the line.

You're missing one! Probably could get it off swappa for 75 bucks if you want to complete the set haha
Collecting them too. Wish I would have left apple earlier. I have galaxy nexus, two N4s and three N5s and now N6.
I don't have the boxes for N4 and Galaxy Nexus like you though, I have boxes for rest of them.

Ive been using all of these since new, kept them mint, and then threw them back in the box when I got the next one. The one Im missing is the Galaxy Nexus S. I dont consider it missing because that was the worst one of all and I skipped getting it when it came out.

Makes zero sense to keep a phone when you could be getting hundreds of dollars for it if you sell it before it becomes an antique.
But hey, maybe you guys like pissing money away.

People like to have collections, its their money and they can do whatever they want with it. If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say it.
I personally have Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, Nexus 5 (Sold it though), Nexus 6. Nexus One, I skipped on it because I didn't have a developer account (honestly I could have gotten one) but I was happy with my T-Mobile G1.
I don't think it is pissing away money. i also still have my original iphone, 3g, 3gs, 4 and 4s. I like collections of electronics. people collect different things. Plus they don't take up as much room as other things you can collect. they all sit in one drawer in my office. Most of the I bought at a discounted price.
I use them all the time upgrading and jailbreaking. loading roms. and the such. reading about hacks and doing it on one phone to see the affect. I use them for test devices for hacks and new apps i get from xda. then if I like it. I move it to my main phone.
i do, and wait patiently to buy N6

Definitely this. This will look as dumb as collecting Nokia bricks in a decade, haha. May as well sell it and get some cash. That's more than one full priced phone right there. It is your money though.
I just collect the boxes. ? I have the original packaging from every phone I've ever had, except my HTC one xl. I was keen to get rid of that, and every possible trace that I ever owned it. ?
I have owned all but the nexus one and nexus 4. Well technically I put my Sim in before I sold it . I don't have any of them although I wish I did lol
I have a Nexus One, Galaxy Nexus and Motorola Xoom which was essentially the first Nexus tablet.
The only one out of the bunch which I would consider selling is the Galaxy Nexus. Asking prices for the Galaxy Nexus are around $100 - $200 so I might try to sell it for whatever I can get. The other two pioneered their individual categories and hold a special place for me and won't be getting sold for a while.

I have owned them all except the Nexus S and the N7 '13.
I even have the Nexus Q!
Got them all except for the first nexus 7 and nexus 10. I will probably buy them later on. Will post a pic later.
I've personally owned and used them all as normal devices except for the nexus one and nexus s.. Just bought them for the collection.
I've had all the Nexus phones except for the One. I only wish I could have kept them all!
As far as tablets I've had the first and second Nexus 7.
the only phone I wish I still had was my G1, sold it to a friend when I needed money and his daughter broke it
I like the S7, but come on Samsung/Google. They pander to the dumb iPhone users. Make the operating system they way it was intended. Default App choosing. Back button kill. Messaging. Keyboard. Sleep mode. SDcard adoptable. Bluetooth. Stupid bloatware. Ugh. HURRY GENIUSES!!!! PLEASE. HAHA

There's already Hotspot mods for Sprint S7 that I know.
I just used a material theme that made the UI dark. Also used a material dark SwiftKey theme. So far I got everything looking great.
So far I'm not desperate for root altho i would love it.

Although this is about the T-mobile CEO, it honestly sounds like he's the only one who cares about it, and is actively trying to come to an agreement with Samsung about the whole thing:

Mannn I want an S7 soo bad but once again Samsung f***ing us over. No root, and the Exynos version has better battery and better performance, so disappointing that the US got the short end of the stick.
Looks like I picked the wrong time to jump ship from HTC....
To me no root is a huge deal breaker. Im returing this phone today and waiting for the LG G5 or the next Nexus. I have the nexus 6 and I love it other than than the broken charging port but I can deal with a broken charging port for multirom and the best support. This phone with stock android and by google would be one of the best phones ever!
Samsung, what you have done to the user community is unconscionable. Don't blame Apple, the carriers, or your mother-in-law. You have made a marketing decision to shut the US user community out from the ability to have phones that are configured the way the users want them. You can't claim support - the same user community has been rooting their Galaxy phones for years without causing you much grief.
I suspect we now know the *real* reason you went with two processor architectures. It's only the US-based community you are hurting.
I switched several years ago to Samsung, and have bought many devices for my organization in the past. I waited a year for the S7 to correct your stupidity in removing the SD card slot from the S6. I'm not waiting another year - or even another three months. I'm looking NOW for alternatives. We all know they are out there. Once I leave Samsung, it will then take, not a really good S8, but my new vendor doing something equally stupid to cause me to consider switching back.
Dr. Kwon, are you listening? Do you even care?
I have a Motorola G4 Plus and I am getting ghost touches when I am charging and when I am not charging. It's really irritating and as of right now, I am waiting for my OnePlus One to return so I can use that phone and get a replacement phone (even though it's possible the replacement phone is gonna have the same problem) for this phone. Any temporary fixes besides turning off and on the screen?

This is completely wrong, calibrating your display does nothing as the display (frame?) is storing extra charge from the TurboCharger, resulting in "ghost touches".
Ghost touches shouldn't be an issue with this phone, and if they are, you should definitely take it to Motorola for a replacement.

I would return the Moto G4 for good.. the OnePlus One is a much faster phone, not to mention it has a better development community. Hell, it has a better battery as well.
Save the cash, and purchase a better phone- the OnePlus 3T and Axon 7 would be very good upgrades to the OnePlus One.

Keep Ur Hate for athene to yourself
He Neither Asked for New Phones Suggestions nor About OnePlus Having Better Development Support
If u are Happy with Bacon Go To Oneplus Forums Don't Waste ur time Here Mate
He Asked for A Temporary Solution That I have Told
And yes **screen callibration** was the term coined by the service center guys. i visited the service center myself.
I believe returning the phone is a 30-day contract otherwise you can't return it passed 30 days, right? I already had it for a few months and this ghost touch started happening for a month. I asked to return it but they said that since I have a warranty on the phone, the only option is to get a replacement phone. I love phones suggestions so it's okay if you do bring them up. Once I RMA my phone and get a replacement phone, I am probably just going to sell it and get a better phone than the OnePlus One and use the OnePlus One as my backup phone just in case there are any issues with the new phone. Anyways, I appreciate all of your suggestions and thank you for all your help.

I never really experienced any problems with the OPO. I dropped the OPO on my school messenger bag once face flat and like the bottom portion was not responding to my touches all of a sudden. Only issue I had and I already sent it in for repairs. I plan on buying the OnePlus 3 or 3t as soon as I get this phone rma, replaced, and sold.
Flashing a custom rom could solve the ghost touching? Do you know?

havent been on here for awhile but anyways....
So i work at my electronics department at Walmart. beginning of last week we got some new AT&T prepaid phones in for a new mod that we are going to be setting up. well one of the phones was an Huawei Ascend XT2 (H1711). i search, and search for info on this phone and couldn't really find anything about this phone besides being able to download a user guide for this phone.
well i bought one knowing nothing about it what phone, and or chipset it uses etc etc...
To be honest been using it for a day now, and i'm simply amazed of the quality/feel/looks of this phone, and i'm really shocked i can't find anything about this phone anywhere.
have you guys heard anything about this phone?
if this thread is in the wrong place please move it.
I picked one up myself. For my father, but I've been playing with it for the last few days. It's really a decent device..
I haven't been able to find anything on it either.
Thanks for posting about this new phone. I was wondering if there was going to be a successor to the H1611.
How much are the H1711s currently selling for?
freakshow11582, I would recommend pulling your images with the phone IMEI shown and repost them with the IMEI whited out.
I'm not sure I trust CPU-Z as the H1611 is ARM64 and gets reported as ARM architecture by CPU-Z. I'm guessing it's doing the same for the H1711.
Your one image shows 3.76GB free - did you already load up a lot of files into internal storage?
Thanks again for the information and I think this is a perfect place for this thread right now until we see how much interest there is for this model.
---------- Post added at 10:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 PM ----------
I just noticed that the H1711 is smaller at 5.5" vs the 6" H1611.

Will probably be like the H1611. First only Walmart had an overpriced TPU case for $20. Then a few months later other reasonably priced cases showed up for much less. I'd suggest to keep checking eBay.

Huh?
So people that have bought Ascend XT2 H1711, what do you guys think about it?
Seems like just the two of you have the H1711 here so far.
What other phones did you consider in this price range before deciding on the H1711? People who bought the LG Phoenix 2 got updated from M to N, while our H1611s are still on M.
How do you like N and what phone were you using before?

i went to pick up XT to unlock for my uncle. I was paying for it without even knowing i was getting the 2. Came out to be like 120 something. I told the guy the price said 49.88 and talked to a manager and got the phone for 49.99. Came to find out dang AT&T stopped all the unlocking unless you paid 6months of service. Now, i have a good deal on a phone but cant really use it.
You can still use it on any AT&T based MVNO or AT&T itself. Which carrier were you planning to use?

I also have the Phoenix 2 I gave it to my daughter cause she wanted it. And only got this phone cause I was curious about it.. Before this phone I was using LG X power, and zte max xl (zte went to **** and only month old.) for virgin mobile.
Best Buy has the Phoenix 2 for $40 if you want one for yourself .
Loving mine so far, bought 10/13. Only complains are how easy the screen is to smudge and nearly impossible to keep clean. Also since I bought it Ive been laying it camera down on tissues because I don't have a case yet like everyone and don't want to scratch the camera lens. I was wondering if anyone can confirm or verify that the raised ring around the rear camera lens is raised higher than the lens, because to my finger and eye it feels flush, I'm afraid to set it down and scratch the lens.
Also I've messed with just about every setting/option there is on the phone and custom launchers so if anyone has any questions about stuff like that I can probably help.

Also I've messed with just about every setting/option there is on the phone and custom launchers so if anyone has any questions about stuff like that I can probably help.

Nope the lens on my camera is flush with the ring., and also using a custom launcher nova launcher to be exact.
$120 XT for over the $60 XT, I dont see the advantage. Same screen, same ram and same storage.

I thought the XT is an quad Core phone?
