Android Thread

[stonehenge]

So if the Huawei isn't that great, I want the LG pretty bad. But I don't know why. If rumors are true, the screen is the same size/resolution as my G2, the same amount of RAM, both are LG, slightly smaller battery, and there's nothing wrong with my G2.

On the other hand, the processor is faster and probably more efficient, it comes with M and 2 more years of updated AOSP goodness, lots of ROMs, it has a fingerprint reader and front facing speakers.

The new N5 should be a nice upgrade for you brah. Screen is slightly larger, hexa-core processor, camera should be improved, around 400mAh larger battery, plus fingerprint reader.

The G2 camera, battery, and screen size are better than your N5 so it's less of an upgrade for me but should be good upgrade for you imo.

But with that said, the Moto N6 looks like a beast (huge fucking phone) and the Huawei will prob be similar.

Can you re-enable it after you add the cards?

I'm running a ROM on my N7. Xenon I think. Works well. Plus the ElementalX kernel, loves me some dt2w.

picked up this case for the lil guy http://www.amazon.com/SUPCASE-Google...dp/B00E6K2Y3Q/

feels nice and the leather "bezel" around the front is pretty thin

[chevyrado14]

i have this one http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Google-Ne...0_SR160%2C160_

[stonehenge]

I was really close to getting that one. The reviews of people who separated the screen/body of their N7 when popping the corners off to stand it up scared me

When I had an N7 from work I had a Poetic slimline. It was really nice but towards the end (not even a whole year) it had started to wear a little.

[chevyrado14]

i havent had any problems with it so far. i also have the moko slim case too. but when i flip the cover over to the back the magnets still activate the screen off feature so that was annoying.

[stonehenge]

ah yeah, my current case does that if I have it in just the right spot. As long as I fold it ALL the way back, the magnets don't trigger it.

[race2c]

Speaking of N7 cases, I have this rooCASE one. http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B..._detailpages00

Got it for $9 on sale.

[stonehenge]

didn't know you had a 2013 n7.

[race2c]

Yea, had it for a few years now. Rarely use it anymore...mainly take it on weekend trips.

[stonehenge]

I use mine in meetings at work and when I'm chillin on the sofa at home. Big screen and huge battery is nicer than using my phone.

[race2c]

Nice screw-up Big Red!!!

Pretty sure I killed my Maxx this morning. I dropped it on concrete and now it won't turn on. When I plug it in to the charger it flashes the low battery screen and the moto splash screen over and over.

[race2c]

I think you need an s5 replacement.

I like the end of the article:

*Verizon has acquired AOL, Engadget's parent company. However, Engadget maintains full editorial control, and Verizon will have to pry it from our cold, dead hands.

Asurion?

[chevyrado14]

Hopefully ordering moto x pure tonight

[stonehenge]

jelly

if TMo would carry it, it would definitely be an option vs a Nexus but don't feel like spending retail

[chevyrado14]

Didn't want to spend the money right now either. Got the maxx to boot to boot loader when plugged in to computer but that's all I can do.

If get new phone, should pay outright though tmo (if they get new nexus) or do their monthly plan?
