S5 active. It's rugged from the get-go, has a removable battery, and upgradable storage.

Goddamn, /g/ is such a brand-fanboy consumer whore. Imagine someone walking up and saying "what is the closest thing to an iPhone you can get in a microwave." This is you. This is what you have become.

If the Moto G2 didn't suck dick, it would have probably been the series of phones equivalent to that.

A thinkpad with mobile broadband and a program that allows you to make phone calls.

this is for muh S4 mini
>rich custom ROM support
>just use a hard case and screen protector for protection
>removable battery, have multiple spare batteries and spare battery charger
>microSD slot
also its screen resolution is shit just like old thinkpads, and
>no OTG support

thinking again, any android phone with removable battery+custom ROM would be amazing choice, biggest advantage of SD is good for installing android on external SD to avoid emmc failure (there is a XDA thread about it, but it's so confusing, still couldn't figure that out), and in case of SD failure you can just buy a new SD and load your backup

Old Samsung phones (S5 and older) or a Nexus/Pixel device. They all have bootloader unlocks, and some of them have removable batteries and SD slots. I'll be getting a Galaxy S2 soon.

Lenovo Zucc

This. S5 is the best phone I have ever owned. Removable battery, sd card slot, water resistant/proof, non-slip grip backing, and tons of open source roms

Yeah, I'd tell them to get one of those memey Electrocux microwaves. I'd also tell them to look into Cisco networking gear.

I want a smartphone that can have any operating system, any bios, any firmware that I want.

Preferably with only free software so there are no back-doors for a hacker to track you down and mug you.

Don't do that. I really love my S2, but it's dated, slow, and has even with brand new battery issues.

barely, which sucks balls. More so when you see the Silver edition.

It's cheaper to put a garbage touch sensor than actual physical buttons sometimes

the same thing happens with cheap ass walmart TV's and they can advertise "Touch panel"

They've been fixed on the last 7.1 builds, also the fix for the previous versions was really easy to apply. Basically some faggot at Google fucked with the mixer paths for some fucking reason and enabled the bottom speaker (which sits next to the mic) during calls, so basically you just have to edit a few lines or flash a little zip.
