>NFC
Im searching for a new phone for a trip Im going on on monday and I found somone selling a OP3 but there is a chance that I dont get it before monday.
Now searching for alternatives and found a Huawei P9 and a OP2 in my area. Now the OP2 lacks NFC but is there anything you really NEED NFC for ? Like I dont pay with my phone or use any NFC-tags ever... Something else you need it for or can I go with the OP2 if I dont use any of NFCs tools ?

So i'm looking at getting a Xiaomi Note 3 pro. I have no experience with rooting android. I'm sure it's not that hard.
Is it usually recommended to root the phone? I don't want bloatware or anything similar spying on me.
Can I replace the android software on it? If so, can someone point me in the right direction or have any recommendations?
>>
Accidentally smashed my Note 4's glass. Can't replace just the glass without fucking up the phone with glue - it has to be the whole screen at the cost of £120.

I decided to buy a new phone but:
>iPhones don't let me torrent and no file manager. Also Applemao
>Samsung's non-removable batteries and the Edge gimmick are shit
>HTC is overpriced for what you get.
>LG/Sony/Motorola are probably overpriced too for the mediocre quality.
>CAT S60 looks ugly and is unsymmetrical as fuck
>Huawei runs native Android but /g/ says it's poor quality, so is OnePlus (break easily, last only 12 months etc.)
>Other Chinkshit is low quality (source: /g/'s anti-shilling)

My only logical conclusion by negative elimination is to buy a brand new Note 4. I was really happy with this phone but the glass doesn't keep my brain clean now... buying the same phone sounds retarded.

Someone give me ideas?

You can root it and flash CM13, it's not super simple but not overly complicated.

Unlock bootloader->flash dev rom->flash CM13->root

Thank you! I haven't bought a phone in about 4 years and trying to learn everything has been overwhelming.
I've been looking at the Honor 8 and the OnePlus 3, I'm skeptical of the Note 7 just cause I see it so heavily advertised. How much of that phone is overhyped?
In terms of provider, I've been using straight talk since I don't want a contract. However, these phones are bloody expensive and being able to get a flagship phone at a more reasonable price might tempt me to sign up.

You can buy Mi5 with SD820 and 3GB RAM for 250€ too. but you wanted stock android. RN3P is 143€, SD650, 3GB RAM and has CM13 roms too.
>>
>>56512454
z5 compact or x compact? Is the 650 snapdragon okay? the z5 looks better though, I like the back.
>>
>>56513726
Why not? It's still got the last good Qualcom processor generation with tons of RAM, it's one of the last samsungs to get good community support and the last one with an S Pen. It's still a very unique device that you'll probably miss if you swich, and there really isn't a good reason to go up to SD820 unless you're constantly gaming on that thing, and even then the 820 is more of a disappointment than not. Keep it.
>>
>>56513610
Note 7 is a time bomb, forget it. Honor 8 is good but UI is ugly. OP3 is ok too.

>>56513745
Benchmarks aside, SD650 is practicality better than SD810 because it doesn't overheat and throttle under load like the housefire that 810 was.
>>
>>56513653
Consumer Cellular isn't bad.

I have a note 7 and was looking around for a smart watch to go with it, but I can't find any good reviews or information that isn't outdated or pure marketing.

I'm not looking to spend over $300, so I was looking at an LG Urbane, but I'm not able to find a concrete answer on whether or not it's compatible with the Note 7.

Any anons here familiar with android watches and able to give me a bit of insight? I'm in the US if that matters.

>>56513117
> OP3 break easily
Really? Fuck I was planning on buying that. Guess I'll have to get the extended warranty. Can't be as bad as 3 RMAs in 1 year LG G4

I assume you mean switch to the Note 7/S7

I'm thinking of buying exactly the same version N910F (some versions like P or T can be cheaper).

It's £120-130 for Pajeet to pry it up and change the screen, or for £260 I can have a fresh Note 4 device - one rooted for playing with Cyanogen-mod and one unrooted for running Banking apps etc.

What would you personally do?
>£120 for screen repair
>£260 for a fresh Note 4
>>
>>56514009
I mean switch to anything but the Note 7. The "two phones, one for spares\playing around and one as a daily driver" thing seems like a waste of money to me, but alas.
>>
>>56514009
Banking apps? I use multiple on my rooted s5?
>>
>>56513807
A time bomb eh? Any other recommendations for a newbie?
>>
>>56514009
Also yes, if you correctly install Xposed and RootCloak, you'll probably still be able to use said bank apps.

What format does an SD card need to be in to work with the S7?

>>56513997

Heavily considering buying a new phone, but the number of phones and reviews out there is a little overwhelming.

>Country
USA

>Carrier
I've heard good things about T-Mobile and Verizon from relatives and friends but my mind isn't really set on either of those.

>Size
I don't want a phablet or whatever they're called. Doesn't need to be tiny, just needs to be able to fit comfortably in my hand. Somewhere around 5 - 5.5 inches maybe???

>Features
I don't really care about removable storage so long as there's something like a 32 GB or 64 GB option. Preferred resolution would be 1920x1080 but I'd be ok with going higher than that. I think I'd like to install a custom Android ROM. A decent camera would be nice. Can't really think of anything else.

OP3 or Pixel for roms, both work on T-Mobile, Pixel on Verizon

HTC 10 also has good Rom support and you can sometimes nab it for 600 from their website unlocked.

There's also chinkphones like the Honors. Most can have roms installed.

I bought a xiaomi redmi note 3 pro off banggood and I just realized I didn't buy the global version.

Is the only difference between global and non-global the ROM?
Could I flash the chinese phone to be global?

Also, it doesn't show the keyboard when I try to type in any fields.

First smartphone btw, not sue how to flash it or what firmware I need, Fast boot or recovery.

99% it's running a chinked vendor rom. you need to flash the global rom.

Do this:

Follow the instructions exactly and it will fix your issues.

TD-LTE B38/B39/B40/B41 2555-2655MHz

A global variant has:
>4G: FDD-LTE B1/B3/B5/B7/B8
TD-LTE B38/B39/B40/B41 2555-2655MHz

A global ROM can't add new bands, can it?

This is the Taiwan version (kate). only resellers call it the "global version"
Your version is the normal one
(kenzo).

It has different dimensions (taller) so cases won't match and has no roms for it.

Unless you need the extra bands the normal edition is better.

That has nothing to do with the fact that the you are running a vendor rom full of bugs and no updates. which is why you have no keyboard.
flashing the global rom from Xiaomi ensures that your software is up to date and legit.

this is just willmyphonework fuckery. you have the correct version. willmyphonework refers to kenzo as the global model, they haven't added Taiwan model yet.

Besides, both of them supports B2 and B4 which t-mobile uses. the "global" kate version doesn't add any other band useful for NA.

So, my LG G4 finally succumbed to the infamous boot loop. It's the Verizon variant and it's rooted (not bootloader unlocked though, since it's Verizon). Is there any way to fix it? Can I at least recover my data from the phone somehow?
Also, what would Verizon do if I brought it in to them? I heard they replace it with a refurbished G4, but I was wondering if you could trade it in and get some money for a new phone.

I am using cyanogenmod 13 on my Nexus 5, latest stable release.

When listening to music via headphones it sometimes mutes everything on changing the track. When I try to use my phone's speakers it still plays the file, but no matter what I do headphones stay muted forever.
The only way to revert it is a reboot, but the issue arises again randomly.

What is going on here? I tried a couple of music apps but it's the same for all of them.

Managed to repair an old S3 two days ago and installed Cyanogenmod 13.

In the video he is flashing to 7.3.2.0.
Would you recommend flashing to V8.0.1.0.LHOMIDG instead?

I downloaded the V8.0.1.0 rom but its file structure is different and MiFlash isn't recognizing it.
>>
>>56521334

>>
>>56521361
I see, so I should flash to the ROM he is providing first (7.3.2.0) and then use the official method (from MIUI website) to update to Version: V8.0.1.0.LHOMIDG (MIUI8) at http://en.miui.com/download-301.html ,right?

I've never done this before, I want to make sure the v8.0.1 is compatible with my phone.
>>
>>56521418
No. flash 7.3.2.0 like in the video. then go to settings->about phone->update. it will install the new version automatically.

Looking for a new phone to replace my LG G2, have had my eye on the Zenphone 3, but Asus has yet to give a U.S. release date, and i'm not sure what else is out there.

Here's my criteria-
>Max at $300, may go over 50~100 if need be
>Powerful CPU (I emulate via RetroArch, and from what I understand, emulation is more CPU-intensive than GPU
>Low input lag if possible (I plan on having my DS4 hooked up to it via micro USB cable)
>Good GPU for regular droid vidya
>Good camera
>Good battery
>Micro SD expansion
>Good support for custom ROMs (Currently using Resurrection Remix, though It's been a while since I've dabbed into this)

Great. MiUi takes some time to get used to but it's quite powerful when you get used to it. if you run into getting notification issues, do this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFJZTPblGu0&t=6m10s

As it's quite aggressive on killing background tasks. some menus will be different because that vid is in MiUi 7.

IT FINALLY HAPPENED.

RIP SAMSUNG
>>
>>56526585
does this happen on a regular basis? How did samsung manage to fuck up this badly? that's a pr nightmare for them.
>>
>>56526597
As of today, one blew up in someone's hand after the recall.

This shows that the recall wasn't a PR stunt, but a high % of S7s explode.

Samsung using discount parts in premium priced phone..
>>
>>56526563
My roommate has the S7E and I don't really like it. I was nervous as fuck about gorilla glass 5 with the whole scratch test thing but after actually owning the phone for a while it feels way better than GG4 on my G4. It glides smooth as fuck and it doesn't even smudge like GG4.

The S7E edges are way too steep to me and I don't want the smaller screen of the normal S7. Besides, T-Mobile is based when it comes to replacements. They replaced my bootlooping G4 the next day.

>>56526597
I think it was their battery supplier? Apparently the China models are all fine.
>>
>>56526613
Even if you get a "fixed" Note 7 its still a bad choice, the specs are pretty much the same as the S7E but it lacks the better processor (exynos variant only), chrome finish and the godly battery duration, if that thing had shipped with 6 or 8 GB of ram then i wouldnt mind having what amounts to a grenade in my pocket.

Their screens get scratched easily as well, the note 7 is just a shit phone overal, even if it didnt have a faulty battery.
>>
>>56526487
The Pixel will be a monumental failure based on all rumors. Just buy an iPhone. if you love headphones get a 6s
>>
>>56526670
I thought it would scratch quick but it's still flawless with no screen protector after several weeks of use. Thought about using one but since it's being recalled anyway I went without.

Kind of disappointing that the specs are the same but it still blows my G4 out of the water. LG bloat is worse than Samsung bloat it seems. For what I use it for (GPS, music, Clover) it's very snappy.
>>
>>56526726
You just dont understand do you? Yes, it is far superior to your shitty LG, we get it, but for that price you could get a much better phone with all of its accessories (sd card, tempered glass, case, better earbuds etc), just give it back and get something else, might as well get a fucking iphone if all you care about is how fluid it is.

LG bloat is in no way worse than touchwizz.

Did the v20 ever get a release date?
>>
>>56514360
It's a great device with good camera, not bad benchmarks, at least the antutu ones and the design is pretty nice. I'm going to order one in a month or soon just to see how people like it after a longer period of time. However in similar price range you can also have Oneplus 3. It's been bugged a lot during its release, however now all these bugs have been fixed, so you'd be getting yourself a quite nice phone for even less the price than the Honor 8. You can always choose xiaomi mi5. It should be cheaper than both H8 and OP3 however that's not how it is in some countries. But it's still a great phone with nice battery life. Design is simplistic and modest if I may call it this way. Though it's always up to you. Take Honor 8 for the design and camera. Oneplus 3 for slightly better performance (though you won't see a difference in day to day use) or just mi5 for its general perf/price factor.

you use it
and you click the finger with a bow
and you give specific time
and at that time phone fires your notification?
>>
>>56527715
Really makes you think.
>>
>>56527728
Yes. If you're feeling unsure, test it before you actually use it.
>>
>>56527749
I am testing it
it is not working
and in settings I have something thats translates as:
>settings for remainders
morning: 8:00
noon: 13:00
evening: 18:00

so its like at those time it checks the reminders or something...

I am just unsure if keep can do it and I should dig more in to my phone settings
or if keep for some strange reason would not do it
>>
>>56527813
You can manually set dates and times still, make sure the date you're trying to remind yourself on is correct.
>>
>>56527835
ok, I just found out I set reminder times on my tests to 11:XX
while its only 10:xx in here

I also found out that those morning, noon, evening are just preset times, something like aliases to quickly set notification reminder

i double check all the notification enabled settings
and its all working nicely when I am not retarded and can set time
also how the fuck, wtf, why did I wake up so early after huge amount of beer

Oneplus 3 or ZTE Axon 7?
>>

Why the note 4 and not the 3 Pro\Snapdragon, anon? Mediatek chipsets are shit. If you want the 4 for any reason, wait for the snapdragon edition.
>>
>>56528602
Axon 7 for multimedia (best DAC on a phone and amazing speakers, great display), OnePlus 3 for community support. I'd lean towards the Axon 7 - being a SD820 it'll get some support either way.
>>
>>56528662
i already got the Oneplus 3 because I ca't seem to get Axon 7 anywhere in EU for some time. And when I could get it it's going yo be 100 dollars pricier. I would love that screen thought and expandable storage.. I don't know if I'm regretting already

I mostly need a phone that, once the system gets obsolete, I can install a custom rom (cyanogenmod).
>>
>>56528168
Tbh I would highly recommend stepping up to 32gb just to be sure and not get burnt later. I have 32gb and I find it to be too little since I have a lot of music I want to have portable.
>>
>>56529285
Newest Samsung phones come with their custom CPU exynos which is a complete bitch for custom roms. Get the pixel phone if you want custom roms after the support ends. If Samsung drops the support you are fucked.

In general look for snapdragon SoCs if you want ROMs and check out XDA to see how popular the devices are.

Built like shit. Tries to shill cloud too much. Decent community support for the moment, but will probably lose steam once XDA forgets about this memephone. Snapdragon 808 when you can get the 820 on other chinkphones for pretty much the same price. Not worth it IMO

That has a 5 inch screen, that battery life looks great though. I am talking about a screen size less than 4 inches, even close to 2.5.

nokia xpress music was pretty good in terms of durability.
I'd still use if I could run nokia ovi suite, but ideally i'd like something a little thinner and smaller.

Literally no such thing. are you 13? grow some bigger hands sheesh.

Tengda 02? Looks autistic has only 1gb ram a 1.3ghz mediakek processor (lag highly possible...) but 3.5" 4000 mAh and a microSD slut. At this screen size and with 480x800 px this would probably serve you two days.
I can't rly recommend shit like this but well. They don't produce decent quality phones at this size m8.

Got myself a Moto X Pure, first Android phone since my Droid 4; had an iphone 5s for the past 2.5+ years.

Recommended first installs, best apps, wallpapers (first quad HD screen, so I'd like to have a nice one), etc.

I remember why I chose android initially, love the ability to make a phone your own, I only switched to iphone because my phones always turned into laggy trash after a few months. Hopefully this is no longer the case, the moto x pure feels really snappy initially.

Is the Huawei P9 rootable?

The more I think about it, the more I think this is gonna be my new phone, if it is rootable.

Camera is important to me, but as well as battery life.
And the device looks great.

P9 was my big regret of this year desu
>baller as fuck design
>powerful device
>good battery
>maybe not the absolute best camera but a good one nonetheless
Unfortunately Huawei's rom is Touchwiz-tier shit so that's a deal breaker.
But yeah if you can stand the rom, go for it because it's a really good device otherwise.

I have a Cat S60 that I'm planning on returning, as they have it locked and won't tell users how to unlock the bootloader so that we can root it. Probably some bullshit export restrictions on the thermal camera. Does Huawei have any bullshit associated with it(like Samsung pushing advertisements), or fucky custom roms, or do they pretty much just sell hardware with Android preinstalled? The Huawei Honor V8 looks mighty tempting.

Alternately, any suggestions? Not spending more than $600, looking for at least 3500mAh, 2GB+ RAM, 32GB+ storage, expandable storage, NFC, Android 6+, company that hasn't pulled bullshit in the past couple of years.

Thanks, looks pretty tempting. The Honor V8 is still winning me out over the P9 for the battery(And being fucking identical in every other way), but if the P9 is the one with active development, I may have to suck it up. At least it has quick charge.

It has all the bands for Ameriboos and comes with flagship specs e.g SD820, 4GB RAM etc.

But anyway, look into Moto X Pure, it's 5.7", SD808, and much better that that LG stylo.
>>
>>56531792
For the price how would you compare it to Le Max 2 X820?

After comparing, I might go with moto x just because of removable storage, but I might keep looking around to find one with removable battery, too. IDK.
>>
I want Nexus 6P because Nexus
I want Axon 7 because muh DAC for music

How bad is ZTE software-wise? Not planning on rooting
>>
>>56532004
Both around the same price. X820 is faster because SD820 and more RAM, but has non stock UI and no 3,5mm jack ala Apple.

Moto X is still pretty fast, SD808 is good enough and the UI is stock-ish Android.

Only LG makes phones with removable batteries these days.
>>
>>56529448
The thing is really good looking, though.

What do you think about japanese phones?

A friend purchased a Samurai Miyabi in february for 15,000¥ (around 130€/150$) when he was in Tokyo and I am honestly impressed by it considering the price tag.
I am going to japan for a vacation soon and I'm seriously considering purchasing something similar (upgrading from Acer Liquid E2).

Would you suggest it?
