i need a cheap phone to replace my galaxy S5 because i broke it. i don't want to pay over 200 bucks. i'm on verizon and i have unlimited data still so no upgrades for me.

Guys I hope you will help the Polish scummy poorfag which I am.
Im in need of buying a phone but it has to be bought in a physical store. I don't have much choice but moto g 2/16, Huawei y6 pro, Alcatel pop 4s(most expensive and lacks screen protection) or chink for half the price cubot note s.
These are my main picks but available are also honor 4c/x, Huawei p8 lite, Asus laser (2gb/410snap) and LG k10(mtk/snap).
Itd be lightly used, no games or social media. I just want it to last me for at least 2 years. All the above look sufficient to me and all are very similar so im fucking confused.
Currently running s3 mini on custom rom that makes it really usable but it's too small and humiliating while multi tasking.

I was at a store yesterday and holy shit the iphone 6s looks like a fucking dumbphone next to the s7 edge. This made me realize I was actually expecting Apple to be the first one to ditch bezzels and yet their phones still have those fucking HUEG blocks all over the place as if nothing's changed for many years already. What the fuck is up with that? Where's their supposed MUH INNOVATION? The iphone used to look so much better than all the other phones a few years ago but it's like their design has completely stagnated.

>>56084514

I have a normal Z3 myself I got two weeks ago and I really like it. But check if everything is working well on the phone, including things such as GPS (use the GPS Test app to see if you can get a fix) and whatnot because mine was kinda borked since I got it used. Ended up having to waste more than I was planning to in order to get all the little details fixed.

Otherwise I really love it. Don't trust the water proof meme.

I honestly don't understand why anyone would pay soo much money for these piece of shit phone's, the os is fucking garbage, you would think that you would get a shiny new os. At least Iphone makes me feel better than everyone else, this piece of shit looks like all the other shit android phones.

I bought an HTC 10 and I've been loving it. However the god damn vibrate is nuts. It doesn't look like there is any way to set notifications to just make a sound rather than make a sound and vibrate. What the hell? Am I gonna have to wait for custom roms just to do something as basic as this?
>>
>>56087852

you can turn off notification vibrations in settings can't you?
>>
>>56087940

No, or if there is i can't find it for the life of me. There are three "sound profiles" you can choose. Normal, Vibrate, and Silent. Normal is both sound and vibration, Vibrate is just that (without sound), and Silent is self-explanatory.

Why does Samsung always build their phone with the latest hardware and to be honest they look god tier now but they still manage to stutter and have the ram management problem.
The s7 edge and note 7 both look so amazing but what keeps me away is the same thing that is bugging me with my s5: the lag
I don't know if that's an android problem or just Samsung specific.

I really love android but I had never the same fluent experience I had with an iphone (I still prefer android nowadays).

It's slow and uncomfortable, swipe typing is much faster, can be done one handed, is more precise, etc. Also I assume physical keys would be subject to wear, shit will get stuck in the cracks, build quality will be compromised, etc.

>swipe typing is much faster

Arguable. The time needed for choosing the proper word can diminish the gain.

>can be done one handed

Agreed (unless you have a fuckhueg phablet)

Exact opposite. I have to rewrite every other word because of how imprecise it is, and the Andorid dictionary is shit EVEN IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, not to mention my slavspeak where it doesn't even have the most basic grammar.

So i broke my galaxy s2 after 5 years of use and need a replacement. The RN3P seems nice if i could slap a custom OS on it and remove chinaman but i worry about its internal battery. Anyone know what to do when it gets old? is it replaceable if i open up the entire phone?

How big of a hassle is it to install a custom OS? Do i need extra tools like flashers? i hope not!

Also looking for a new phone for my brother. Cant get him chinkshit due to disintrest.

I was considering the galaxy J5 (2016) but it comes at the same price as the LG G3, moto G4 and the nexus 5X but has worse performance.

LG G3 is slightly cheaper than nexus 5X and about the same price as Moto G4. It comes with a replaceable battery and SD card slot that the Moto G4 and X5 lacks. The downside being a 1440p resoluton draining battery and performance

Any reason for chosing the X5 or moto G4 over the LG G3? It seems to be a good deal or am i missing something here?

If you don't care for VR or have only moderate camera expectations, absolutely go for it. It's very difficult to get compatible Gear VR's, and while the photo quality is good, they're really disappointing in low light.

The redmi pro with the x25 doesnt look bad but how are the chances to get cm on a mediatek processor?
Import costs will push the price up to a 70€ difference between this and the v10 (excluding the battery) so it doesn't look worth getting chink software support.

it may change in the future though, but im not sure.
don't get lg g3, it's a piece of shit. i had got it replaced with an iphone 5 last summer and it is still better than lg g3. its stock roms/modded roms suck, when you throw a custom rom on it then things break. you'll have to use shitty camera apps that don't support lg camera drivers etc. battery wasn't terrible but it wasn't great either. performance gets laggier with use, i don't know how it's doing right now.
i'd get the nexus 5x or samsung s6. i don't know how much the latter costs in your country though.

No, they've been trying. Thing is they never offered it on AT&T, and T-Mobile stopped selling it last week. So you can only get it from two carriers unless you buy it unlocked on their website which is better anyway because they usually have a deal going.

I just wish the vibrate wasn't a bitch like >>56087852 said (no, you can't turn it off. It's either on or the whole device is silent)

That and the quick charge on it is a joke with how much heat it generates, and this is after HTC advertised it as them finding a way to "keep your phone cooler while charging". Yeah, some heat is normal but that is just nuts. I've had good charge time without the quick charger anyway

>phone is dead if the battery is damaged for now

Well thats a bummer. Anyway its only ~150 dollarydoos for some serious hardware. Hopefully it lasts a minimum 2-3 years. I still use the original battery on my s2 so maybe it wont even be a problem.

The s6 is almost double the price of the 5X here. not really a contender in this price range.

The 5X not having an SD slot seems wrong. Limiting phones to 16 or 32GB is a meme that should have died ages ago.

How does the moto G4 compare to the 5X? atleast it has an sd slot. The 5X must have a great OS to be able to compete with its draconian features.
>>
>>56092798
It's not just that, it's the pricing.
At least in Europe you can get an S7 for 80-100 cheaper. That's going to turn away a lot of people.
I'd really prefer to get the HTC but that price difference is unjustifiable.

Anyone got any experience on ideas on how to fix a Samsung Galaxy S5 boot loop that won't even go into recovery mode?
All I can access is the download mode and I've tried flashing the stock ROM both with Odin and Kies3, but it's still not working. Only fixes I've been able to find either require another S5 or praying to God and just waiting and it might work after a while.
Warranty is already voided by time.

Hi, I don't know where else to ask so sorry if its off topic, anyway, just 2 weeks ago I noticed that the UI doesn't quite fit the screen of my phone, at first I though it was my physical screen dying or dead pixels but I took a screenshot and well, just look at pic related, anyone knows how to fix it? My phone is an Alcatel C5 running an unofficial CM12.1 rom, it had jellybean but I updated to kitkat via custom kernel and slapped CM on it, this happened recently by the way, I've been using it for 2 years with no problems whatsoever and even with the screen bug it still works fine, but my autism flares up whenever I see it, I've tried reinstalling the rom, using a different one, wiping the system, cache and data completely instead of just the three system cache/cache/dalvik wipes, nuking the phone completely and starting from the kitkat build (you can't restore it completely or It'll shit the bed) but nothing works, I've never dropped it or installed any themes/icon packs if you're wondering, and I can't just buy another phone because this poorfag just wasted all his savings on the newest gtx, a real casing for my PC, a bluray drive for it, a 4k samsung LED TV (never had one until now and it came with a 10 meters long "gold" plated hdmi , i know its a meme but I want a psquadrupple and with a cable this long I can hide it pretty well), and a new, fancy fridge to replace the one I got from dad (the thing is 2 years older than I and I'm 23), this phone cost me a whole 30 dollars brand new, spending 600+ bucks on something that I'll only use for reading mango on dead nights, masturbating to loli on my lunchbreak and the occasional call from my parents seems like a massive waste of money, I don't even have a google account or any apps installed besides those four, even the cheapest decent one is 150 dollars minimum.

If it doesn't work after PIT, I think only motherboard replacement will be helpful. There is JTAG exists, but I'm not sure anybody would be able to provide such service, search for it. Sadly I forgot 90% of shit about recovering, back in the day we managed to trick Galaxy S into loading from microSD while internal memory (EMMC) was dead. Your may be corrupted as well.

I may advise you to flash any kernel with ODIN before you flash the firmware, if I'm right, in Samsung, recovery menu is built in the kernel itself.

I don't think you'll be able to flash kernel separately. It could be done in Galaxy S2, but not for S5, as it had recovery built-in, it's separate in S5. I'd tell much more accurately.

>If it doesn't work, then it means your memory is corrupted.
With hindsight, I'd think that's clear, considering how it would act up before it started boot looping constantly. First apps freezing and slowing down ridiculously, requiring a reboot to function properly. Being unable to play videos without lag, then going into bootloops that would fix itself after a while or after removing the battery. Until finally just getting completely stuck as it is.
Happened over a few days and couldn't have done shit if I wanted since I was at my summer cabin.

I don't understand why people are so focused on CPU and RAM to the exclusion of other factors. The way a phone looks and feels is far more important than being 10% faster (for almost no noticeable real-world improvement), in my opinion.

>open whatsapp in just 7 seconds. speed

>>56098417
The S7E's display isn't anywhere near the quality of the Note 7's. Resolution isn't everything. They are certainly not the same display. Displaymate does extremely in-depth reviews and takes many measurements, and the Note 7 outperforms the S7E in quite a few ways.

Well, I never had any experience with Huawei 2bh, so I'm not sure. the KIRIN 650 is definitely faster than SD617 and probably doesn't heat as much either. thinner and weighs less too. looks like a better phone than the G4 specs wise, but I never used Huawei version of Android, so that one thing to keep in mind.

Skin looks stock-ish which is good. If your'e familiar with it seems like a good alternative, especially if it sells for less then the G4P.

they really are, they saved my sisters Nexus 6P, and my two crazy cousins GS6's.

get decent ones, but dont go all $30 each crazy. the $6 for two of them screen protectors are fine. and if nothing else, they keep the screen from scratching like hell if you ever put it in your pocket.

Amazon seems to have a weird version of the Moto G4 on sale but it has ads and shit.

Would it be possible to remove the ads and shit and save the cash?

I have a Moto X Pure, and a Telus Z30, which I must say is my favourite out of the two. I especially like the Paratek antenna for rural areas. BB10 runs any Android apk that I need access to, and very smoothly at that. Eh, for what you can pick one up used for it's not too bad. The glassweave back is interesting imho, as well.

A whooping 50$ difference. The only difference seems to be the cheaper one is barraged by ads on the lockscreen.

The new nexus devices are gonna be shit.

So, there is pretty much no option here other than to go with the Oneplus 3, if you want a recent smartphone and one that you can root, for a price 400 bucks.

The S7 is relatively cheap here, but there is no method to root it without triggering Knox.
>>
>>56099147
oh it didn't come up with me. they removed the ads from my kindle as i'm living in a country where they don't serve.

g4 in mediamarkts are €250, i would be glad if you keep posting in this thread if you find cheaper options. I don't know how to shop wisely in europe

G4 plus no doubt, the camera is much better. the SD615 on the x play is terrible. in fact SD616/617 are the supposed fixed versions of it.

>>
>>56099407
how about 2 dollars?
>>
>>56098721
MTK6580 is one of the lower end mediatek chips. it's arm v7 and 32-bit. if you can go for MTK6735A which 64 bit arm v8 it's much better.
Cubot X15 for example. still dirt cheap.

My LG G4 bootlooped last week and is currently in repair. As soon as it gets back repaired, I'm thinking of selling it since I'm unhappy with the battery life / performance and the risk of it bootlooping again.

I'm thinking of getting a OnePlus 3 but I'm afraid of their customer support in case I need it at some point.

What do you guys think? Which phone should I get? (No S7 though)

So the leaks tell us that iPhone 7 will not have a headphone jack. How credible are they? Is there a good chance they don't have it? Why would they take that risk for a problem that doesn't exist? Will everyone flock to android phones now?
>>
>>56094872

as long as you don't store your entire movie and music collection on there, 32GB will be fine for 99.9999% of usage scenarios
>>
Nexii when?
>>
>>56100660
No one knows who credible they are. There is a good chance that the iPhone 7 won't have it. However, there is probably going to be either bluetooth Apple Ear Buds in the box (unlikely) or rather a Lighting Port to 3.5mm adapter in the box so your old headphones still work.
>>
Got a corporate email saying they want to auction off some old phones, iPhone 5S, 5C, Galaxy S3/4s, and Note 2 and 3s currently going off for like $20-50 bucks. Are these any good as backup or travel phones? Some are pretty worn out but others look new.
>>
>>56100824
Get all iPhone 5S and even 5Cs if they are under $100. You can sell the 5S for easily $250 used on eBay.
>>
>>56084597
Yeah and honestly it's just a bad phone in general. Get the OnePLus 3
>>
>>56100749
See, they are introducing a problem by adding an adapter. Unless they spin it to say the audio quality is somehow better no one is gonna buy into needing an adapter to replace a port that has been around for years.

>>56095165
Yes, but the specs are shit tier unfortunately

the way this samsung looks makes my pee pee go stiff but the more i look into it the more i head bad things about it. no unlocked bootloader, reportedly bad audio quality through headphones and speakers, bad ram management and laggy touch screen on some?.. (can only get the exynos one)
i hate how shitty/dull htc 10 looks but it seems to be a better android phone. screen is lcd too. ;_;
i don't know if i should just get an iphone 6/6s.

wait for the new nexus. It doesn't look as sexy, but you will love everything else about it.

Or get a moto x pure.

Don't buy anything from Samsung, they make bad stuff that's basically chinkshit, but looks really nice at release/for the first month.
