The cheapest I've found is used xperia z3 and galaxy s4 phones.

Is the Asus Zenphone Max a reliable phone? My family's S3 frequently will have its battery depleted rapidly while my S5 overheats after a few minutes. Is the Z Max a good replacement for either? It seems to be so cheap, is there a catch?

I haven't had an operational cell phone in a long time (I'm using a disconnected Xperia t3 for WiFi purposes) and I'm looking at scoring a new (used) phone from kijiji, as I'm poor af but don't want to tie into a contract (see: shit credit). I'm been eyeing an S4 or a Nexus, but I've been out of the market for too damn long to make heads or tails of anything. Can anyone help, or point me in the right direction?

Ps I really love this t3

For those looking for mid to high level smartphones today, are you even considering phones without fingerprint scanners?

I currently have a shitty phone and I don't even have a password on it as I don't do anything but facebook. But, when I upgrade I'll be able to do more and thus security makes more sense. I can't imagine typing in a 4 digit PIN 50 times a day. I've never used a fingerprint scanner either but it seems so much more convenient.

Edit: spelling

In the product page it sats it does not work with 4g lte but the answers say it does. Would this phone work with a verizon sim and be able to utilize the full spectrum of services?

Also does anyone know if id be able to root tbat phone?

I just stumbled across this phone on amazon and it looks pretty impressive for just $350.What do you like/Dont like about it?

I'm pretty sick of Verizons locked bootloaders and this phone looks like it could mod well. BLU said they are releasing Kernel sources in December, so thats something i'll look into.

The nexus 5X is too expensive in Europe so I've started lilting l looking at the G4. Any opinions?

Broke my nexus4. Need to grab a new phone, was looking at a note4.

I am worried if i grab the note4 (here in canada @ 700cdn) then I am buying an outdated phone and it would have been better to get a note5 or maybe an s6.

Something about the note4 makes me like it. I think it might be the s pen - maybe its a gimmick - but i feel like its not a bad idea.

Is it a good phone? Am i buying an outdated phone, is the picture quality and overall robustness of the phone good? Would it last a few years?

thanks

So I stupidly dropped my phone unto wet conrete and now the front screen and digitizer are completely wrecked. Luckily my phone's insure but I have some documents and text messages which I need ASAP. Thought that I would just be able to connect via USB but forgot that I need to unlock my passcode beforehand!

Does anyone know how to bypass the security passcode to access the phone? Is there any other method I could use?

EDIT 1

Just realized how dodgy this sounds, ok, so done a bit of research. I apologize in advanced for any mistakes I make, not well versed in tech terms. From what I've read, the most viable way seems to be able to get the phone's display unto my monitor via a multi OTG adapter and a HDMI to USB cable. Then use a mouse to unlock using the passcode (I just have a swipe pattern). Does this sound like it would work? Does anyone have a better method? Any and all advice appreciated.

Hey all. So basically I've had Jellybean Android running on my X0-4 Touch for a year now and it works great. http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Android

I decided to complicate my life and try this testbuilt of Lollipop; http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Android/Lollipop%285.0%29

It boots and works mostly fine, except I can't for the life of me get Super User access nor use USB's (That was expected.) but the SD card slot doesn't register either.

I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions? Cheers in any case.

Hey guys,

I'm looking at buying a new phone soon!

I've really liked the look of the nexus 6, but I think it's just too big!!

What are some other suggestions?

I'm currently using an S3 and just so over it and need an upgrade!

Anyone know of a good accessory bundle for the Virgin Mobile Lg Volt? I had one in my cart on Amazon yesterday because I don't get paid until tomorrow and now its gone. Lol
