/spg/ - Smartphone General

Can I buy the redmeme 4 prime in the US ? (Planning to buy it next month) if yes, where can I do it?

MOTO G (4th Generation) 4G LTE with 16GB
or
Moto X Pure 4G with 32GB

the g4 has more ram (3gb vs 2) and higher mp camera (21 vs 13), but one anon says the pure x is old and deprecated (but only like 1 year?)

>>57563263
>the g4 has more ram (3gb vs 2) and higher mp camera (21 vs 13), but one anon says the pure x is old and deprecated (but only like 1 year?)
it sounds like the G4 is all around the better deal if the pure x is old lol

>>57563262
>Supported bands: FDD-LTE (B1/B3/B7)
No. no bands for the U.S.

>>57563340
woops i swapped the details should be:

G4
snap 617
16 gb internal
2 gb ram
12 mp camera
2016

Pure X
snap 808
32 gb internal
3 gb ram
21 mp camera
2015

>>57563446
I don't live in the US. I'm just going there on next month and wanna buy a cheap phone there cause my shitty country has taxes as fuck

>>57563507
And? Xiaomi doesn't sell in the U.S. only in China and soon India.

>>57563479
>>57563263
also this site says the hexa 808 in the pure x performs better than the octa 617 in the g4

Aliexpress is probably most popular.
Just take a look at their return/refund policies.

Nothing. It's just finished its second battery and I'd like to replace the phone instead of the battery this time.

What apps do you use that don't work on rooted phones? Yes, I did google, and found a list here, but I want to know if there are any others:

Also, do you guys use root hiders other than rootcloak, and what can/can't you get working with them?

I have to ask, what's so interesting about the v20?
I have it as no other phone seemed as attractive but I fail to see what makes it special

I think its time for an upgrade. I've been using the HTC m7 since it was released.

I'm going to buy it outright/unlocked because fuck the jews, but I don't feel the need to buy the newest thing on the market.

Should I just get the m9?

>>57564640
Are you considering chinkphones? I was going to get the m9, but went with the Axon 7 instead. It's a bit bigger than I was used to but this thing is fucking great for the price.

Seems like its being officially launched here sometime soon for $700.

Hey guys, I am thinking of getting a new phone and retiring my galaxy S4, a while back I think there was a recommendation purchase, and I believe remember seeing axon phone on there?

Well, newegg will be having black friday sale, and slashing zte axon 7 64gb/4gb ram down to 250 I believe.

I will be using straight talk (or net10 whatever the phone supports) i am also based in the US, I will be doing general browsing, pokemon go (inb4 b&), and I've been wanting bigger screen.

Everything works with SuperSU+suhide+rootswitch. Bit of a pain in the arse to go through it all though.

Do I lose any features from the Nexus 6P if I load CM 14 on it? I mean small add ins that Google did, or is it completely pure Android?

Just got a Poetic Revolution for my v20, is there ANY fucking way to put on cases like this, with the built in screen protector, without there being itty bitty hairs or dust or shit on either the phone or the screen protectors bottom half? I wipe that shit down like I have OCD before I put them on and still doesn't ever get it 100% clean. I'm about to take a can of air to this shit.

Looking for a new phone in the $300 range. Battery is my priority, ideal size would be 5" to 5.5". Looking at the RN3P, is there a way to get it in the US without waiting a month for it to arrive?

What's with all the bitching from OP3 users over the OP3t? They got a great phone at the time it's still fairly future proof but now that OP release a new phone due to upgraded available parts, they are doing nothing but whining about it.
This is coming from a guy who will most likely upgrade to it, given that the OP3 is discontinued.

Do you want to flash partitions on your new phone?
Do you have particular use cases that call for IPxx certification?
Finding a gem in this price range is entirely dependent on your specific use case.

Oh nice, who us your carrier? Will 4g/4g LTE work?

So now that lenovorola has gone to shit (updates, support, phone design) and Google isn't making nexus devices anymore, what phone am I supposed to get that is both cheap and running stock?
Don't mind updates so much as long as there is a large dev scene for custom Roms.
I'm currently using an x pure and I love it, but I have no idea what my next upgrade should be next year. As far as I can tell there is nothing filling the niche that the x pure and nexus 5x were filling.

I pretty much just want a rooted device that can support xposed and apps like greenify. Also it needs to have an SDcard slot since I have 100gb worth of music. It would be ideal if the bootloader can be unlocked and you can install custom roms

>>57570065
I'm not that guy, but I have a RN3Special Edition (aka Kate) and I'm with AT&T. LTE works great.

>>57569987
Probably set it up wrong. Pairing it with bluetooth right? As a wireless controller? It should work just fine after that they even submitted a fix in 2014 just for the dualshock 4.

>>57570100
Usa? Now im tempted to get one for net10(att) or syraight talk(sprint)

Probably OnePlus 3 now, or OnePlus 4 next year granted they don't jack prices up.

>>57570167
I'm on Verizon :(

>>57570156

Yeah I held down ps button + share and then paired it through Bluetooth. I'm gonna re do it all over again just in case

>>57570180
I thought Verizon sold some OPs, guess I was wrong.

>>57570166
Sprint only allows approved devices (like Verizon iirc). With AT&T/net10 you should be good to go. You can always double check with them when you settled on a device before actually buying it.
http://willmyphonework.net/

>>57570183
Yeah because as far as I can tell, people can use it just fine on various emulators. Some even using OTG adapters to play wired.

>>57570261
Unfortunately none of the OP phones work on Verizon. I might just stick with Motorola or try to hold off on upgrades for an extra year and save up for the pixel.

>>57570365
You can get a 128GB Pixel for 300 on verizon they brought back cucktract prices. just do it not like you're going to jump ship from verizon at this point since you can obviously afford it.

>>57564640

I'm your typical /g/ faggot that only really uses his phone for web browsing and occasionally emulating something.
I'm currently using a Sony Xperia Z Ultra but it's getting old and I'd like something a little smaller.
Is the redmeme note 3 pro actually a good phone or is this just a /csg/ meme? They're like $130 on ali which is cheaper than any other comparable phone on the market, especially considering the huge battery life.
My only real requirements for a phone are:
>SD slot
>3.5mm headphone jack
> >5' screen because my eyes are shit
>ability to root/xposed or install a custom rom so I can get adblock
> at least HSDPA/3.5G with ATT in the US. 4G would be nice but as long as I can get 3.5G I'm happy
Can a Xiaomeme satisfy the last 2?

HTC 10. It's the most future proof phone of 2016 next to the Pixel but without the shit design and lack of features.

>>57570776
You'll have to check out the forums for both devices, and any reviews of the devices and decide for yourself because at the end of the day, you're the one who is going to be using it.
If you're scared of band support or whatever, write down the bands the phones support (get them from their specs sheet on whatever store you're buying these phones from) and then call up AT&T/Net10/etc. and ask them if it'll work.

>>57570768
It's actually a good phone, especially for the price. You'll probably want the RN3 Special Edition (aka KATE) which provides more band support than the pro, but I think it's like $140-200.
If you're really worried about band support, Huawei devices would be the only chinkshit devices you can look for. Or just go with the likes of OP or HTC.

Doesn't the kate version have a slightly different body that doesn't fit into cases?

>>57570891
Yes. There are cases for Kate around, but if you already have 3Pro cases for whatever reason, yeah they don't fit.

>>57570823
damn, that blue pixel looks really good

>>57570823
>HTC fucked up the pixel purposely so they can sell more HTC 10s
brilliant 2bh

>>57570902
Gotcha
Another thing I heard was that CM isn't available for the kate version.

>>57570955
Majority of roms that work with Kenzo also work with Kate (xda has some index with notes about this). You just can't flash miui kenzo roms with kate.
Also Xiaomi has been using a different (better) fingerprint sensor in their devices now, which means before flashing anything you should run aida64, see which sensor you have, and then make sure the rom you're flashing supports it.

Anyways, the answer is that yes it's available, along with many others. Just don't blindly flash, XDA has a million guides.

>>57567963
Your last sentence explains your question.
OP3 owners are buttblasted because their phone is no longer the newest one, so they think that op3 will have shorter peroid of getting updates in comparison to op3t. Oneplus said that development for those phones will be parallel, but if they were to drop development of one of those, it would be regular op3.

At least that's what i've gathered from various comments avout the case

>>57573311
yea it's on sale on my amazon as well, just wanted to check if its a good deal, I mean to me it sounds pretty alright, I dont know if im pulling the trigger too fast before the real black monday deals

asking >>57572928 again

Newegg has the Zenfone 3 laser for $200. Haven't heard much at all about this phone. I'm jumping ship from windows phone and just want a decent device that won't have support end in a month.

>>57571952
Nah the X Compact is better than a Z5 with a Qualcomm Overheat™ 810 SOC.

>>57572077
The phone runs better than I thought i would with TouchShit. Only reason I would wait for the S8 is for the S7 to fall in price and cop it.

Nigger I appreciate the help but it really was the best option, if the customs here weren't a total pain in the ass and processed shit faster everything would have been fine

>>57574140
What country?

Sometimes you can ask the chinks to declare lower value so customs won't find it.

Anyway you already got the phone just enjoy it m80.

And always use kimovil in the future to find best prices.

And I did, you have to be lucky. They don't check every package but they decided to go full gestapo on me. So best case scenario was 150 euro and 15 days shipping, worst case was 150+70 euro customs and 8 weeks shipping. I played the lottery and I lost. Better luck next time I guess.

Same story here, random reboots and wondering if claiming warranty, lose time and maybe they'll just flash it and it'll keep rebooting. Of flashing cm and voiding warranty

>>57575162
Are you actually on the global rom?

Mi5 or OP3/OP3T, the prices and perfs looks fine on both, I'm currently leaning toward OP3 cause oxygen OS seems closer to stock android to me.
Anything that I'm missing? Any alternative?

>>57575360
OP3 is discontinued. go for OP3T. Mi5 is far from stock android and it has problems with GPS.

So I figure you guys don't like the Moto Z with the whole modular meme. I think it's pretty good and once you put the battery attachment on it's not that thin. Dunno how it runs though, also it has a really gay meme button sensor thing on the front.

Why is that? desu I don't really care about the price of the phone, I just really wish someone would make a phone like the Nexus 5 with updated hardware, my all time favourite phone desu.

No gay physical button at the button, visually pleasing and simple and just good all around.

>>57576251
Only a normie would care about the camera.

So I cracked the screen on my gen 1 moto X, and I've settled on replacing it with a nexus 5x. The question is, do I buy now, or do I wait for for black friday/cyber monday to see if it drops in price? I'm assuming phones usually go on sale but I've never had to buy one around this time before.

>>57575682
Nexus 5 is the ugliest phone in the nexus line.
Also Moto has been making mediocre devices for a while now.

I have a problem, sort of. I've been with HTC all my life, my last one was m7 which was a good phone imo but I lost it. Now Im thinking to get either m9 or galaxy s6. I know that m9 did bad in the tests compared to s6, but it looks way better and...well..it looks better. What do ?

>>57576654

>>57570823
I have a Pixel XL and it's my favorite phone I've ever had. It just feels so good to use.

Like I don't have concrete reasons why it's better than other phones, it just feels really good in your hand and the OS is consistently smooth and fast.

>>57576685
Dunno. Got CM13 and seems to be mostly fine.

I don't know if I'm in the right thread to be asking this but I need help new to iPhone game and didn't know that if you delete your messages they can still be recovered on Icloud how can I permanently delete these messages I found this program called phone cleaner but can't use cause I don't have the updated version of iTunes since I can't upgrade my windows to windows 7 or higher so please help me out guys

Anyway to free up the 9 fucking gigs of space taking up by the "system" on an s7? I only have 32 GB internal, and I don't really feel like buying an SD card right now.

>>57578003
No, all phones use a lot of system space desu. I guess you could try flashing shit or whatever to minimize impact but it's not like you're going to suddenly get a full 30gb+ of space to use

>>57577668
Is this phone any decent? I'm currently using the s2.

>>57578239
>>57577632
No, it's a pile of shit. get a Moto G4 or G4 play if your'e really poor.

Is this thread going to be around tomorrow morning? I fucked up and bought an iPhone. I basically want something that's going to get security updates and it seems like my options are:
1) iPhone
2) Nexus 5X

The 6P is big as fuck and the Pixel phones are fucking ugly. What options do I have?

Or what's the best dumbphone available right now?

>>57579415
the smartest thing is always to buy the newest iphone/nexus because they have a larger support window
if you assume a support window of four years then then you'd have to buy 4 1-year old phones as opposed to 3 new phones to cover a 12 year period

>>57579486
that's why i went with the iphone initially, because they have that history of releasing the new ios's until the phones run like utter shit. but i can't deal with the ui and the fingerprint sensor can't deal with my sweaty hands so i'm looking to jump back to android.

i just can't get a 5x from google anymore. i'm leaning slightly towards a op3t but i don't trust it to get much updates. and i got burned pretty bad by the opo and it's shitty gps

What do. Should I get a S7 edge when its at a super jew price during christmas sale or wait for the S8 next feb/march

I don't really use the phone much aside from web broswing, music and a few small apps. But I do have a fair amount of music that would easily use up a fair bit of space. Been using a S5 up until now and really liked it but the battery shat itself.

Broke my S6 today. I was planning on getting an S7 eventually and since it's holiday sales time I'm gonna get one this week. I can't decide whether to get the unlocked version with the Exynos or an AT&T version with Snapdragon. Exynos seems like a pretty clear choice (less bloat, faster, more battery) but after thinking on it, wifi calling actually been a really big boon to me because of my job. VoLTE has been nice too. I've been reading though that you can flash some stuff on the Exynos version to enable wifi calling/VoLTE on AT&T though, is it difficult? I've never rooted a phone before.

Wileyfox Swift for 100 pounds / 117 euro / 124 USD.

Is it any good? I've never heard of this brand.

>>57586166
regular s7 isn't exploding, is it?

Anyone know if this S7 deal is still going on at Best Buy? http://bgr.com/2016/11/10/best-buy-black-friday-2016-galaxy-s7/ Can't find anything on the Best Buy website about it.

Has any phone been released yet to make me reconsider the Note 4 as my last phone?

>>57586214
They all are iirc

>>57586214
No. That anon is just being a faggot.

Gimme customization.

Switching from an iPhone 5S so size around 4" would be comfy but I don't really give a shit if it's something humongous either. I have big hands. Believe me.

Budget is basically unlimited. It'd be nice to keep it under a thousand though I don't care if it's something good.

Post dick

>>57586147
Axon 7, waiting for the fucking mail to drop mine off today.

>>57588208
Post thoughts on it later? I'm close to pulling the trigger on one. Also, did you get gold or grey?

>>57588335
I went with gold since gray was out of stock on Amazon, since I had to get it there to spend my Amazon shekels. Didn't really care either way though.

>>57584670
Fucking this. I can't stand the camera on my x3c. Their phones are really fragile as well. Over time my phone suffered from the following:
>Screen/glass backplate coming away.
>audio jack broke (VERY common problem with these phones)
>screen broke, twice.
>Little waterproof flaps broke.
>SD card slot broke.

And before you call me a clumsy faggot, not only are these problems not uncommon amongst Z3c users, but I've had a number of phones before the sony and none of these had as many problems as this.

Since the screen broke for the final time (just sitting on a bed) I've gone back to my slow pos Lumia 720. But hey at least It doesn't break. I used it for three years before switching and its build quality is so much superior. Hasn't broken once.

If the Z3C is anything to go by, I would stay away from Sony.

?

Does OP3T come rooted with cyan?
I never understood what they do exactly

>>57569257
>you don't need an SD slot
you do if you want to recover trip pictures after accidentally the whole water seals

>>57588888
Damn you. What a waste.

Has Sony really shat the bed as of late or is it just an overreaction?

My Xperia Z1 has survived for nearly three years, but it's finally starting to show it age, and I was thinking about upgrading to the XZ.

SO, Xiaomeme Mi MAX 64gb Snapdragon 652 3gb or Xiaomeme HongMi Note 4 64gb 3gb..?

>>57587285
BHP is? I googled it and my dumb ass couldn't find anything related.

>>57588865
No it's there own take on android "Oxygen OS" it comes with an unlocked boot loader so you can throw CM right on it.

The original OPO did come with CM however

Why isn't Nexus 5X getting cheaper REEEEEE

It's getting more expensive, why is this happening to me and who can I blame?

>>57590213
Why do you want that piece of shit anyway? It's got bad battery life and will not be supported by google in the future.

>>57590276
I'm europoor and don't want chinkphone. And also my 4years old Nexus 4 is dying.

>>57590300
Get a chinkphone. I'm a europoor doing that.

>>57590327
>Get a chinkphone. I'm a europoor doing that.
The only chinkphone I would buy right now is Redmi 4

How is the Iuni i1? I know that the society closed but it costs nothing
