Can you provide with a zoomed in picture of your phones?

I know this is a lot of pictures and I "think" these reflect my cell evolution since the 90's I'm missing a whole bunch of them...when I worked for Verizon, they will give me every single new phone to demo it

If hes anything like me, he changes phones about every 2-3 months. I just get board with them and want something new or the latest, even if its a downgrade.

My dad is still using his Siemens S45....hey, it's never broken after so many years, and no one would steal it for sure.

Who will make my next phone?

Hey all.
Basically i just want to hear all your thoughts on your current devices, and what you think of the next device in that product family.
My thoughts.
My first android device was the Motorola defy which really sold android for me, the fact i could treat a phone horribly by accident and it not care was a really solid selling point. The developer community for it was really quite strong too, it even receiving CM10 before my current S2.
The original transformer isn't the prettiest, lightest and fastest tablet anymore (not that it was ever lightest SO MUCH GLASS) but it was and is my first tablet and still works amazingly today. Good job Asus.
My current phone is the Samsung Galaxy S 2 which i bought outright after everyone that had one giving raving reviews and a quick view of the forum showed a very active community. Little did i know the issues the developers faced to get the aosp roms working properly, it is not pretty and it is entirely the fault of Samsung and their hardware partners (I am looking at you, yamaha). I know this and love the developers for supporting my S2 so well, especially codeworkx whom has been moving devices lately.
I love the idea of getting the S3, but i would only be going for the larger screen and if all i want is the larger screen why not go even larger and get the Note 2? Especially after its drop test video. It is a tank of a phone.
The One X+ Kind of interests me with unlocked bootloaders etc. But the fact i have to flash the kernel separately to the ROM every time (or at least that is my understanding) would really annoy me.
After the defy i would rush to a unlocked bootloader on a Motorola. That and screen size were the only issues i had with my defy.
But my current plan runs out in December which is only a few months away and i would love some ideas on devices coming into Christmas season.
Currently i am thinking Note 2, but i don't want to have half baked aosp roms because of hardware support. Ideas?
And yes doing a BYO 6 month plan with my local carrier is an option.

How bout this one?

Although super durable i am not sure it would have all the features i am after. And look at that screen, tiny!

HTC 100% of the time.
There are some really cool devs and contributors who have written apps and scripts that enable you to flash everything all at once, kernel included.

I have the SGSIII and the One X. In the case of the One X (not the One X+ but it's basically a refresh of the One X) yes, you do have to extract and flash the boot.img via your pc using fastboot and the flash the modules via recovery...not as bad as it sounds. It's a great phone.
The SGSIII not only has a bigger screen but a higher resolution than the SGSII. There are many ROMs for it and in the case of the US variants I've flashed ROMs made for the AT&T variant on my T-Mobile one. (The international version also has great development.)

Hey Tommy thanks for the reply, i take it your experience is from the EVO?
Thanks Babydoll one of my friends has the one x which i rooted/cm10ed for him the other day, it was an interesting look into HTC custom roms and i must say it is not overly difficult or anything. And i did see the scripts Tommy was talking about, they would be nice in easing the transition. How do you find the one x build quality? I heard it was hit and miss between users.

That's the reason why you sold it? You could have flashed a safe kernel. Done.

What device are you rocking while you wait for your nexus 4?

Should be fun...
Device, ROM, accessories?
I'm on a galaxy note 1 on att lte and I've got eclipse rom JB on it. Sick setup. I love jelly bean paired with powerhouse hardware.
Not really much accessories but I love my BT headset. Its a jabra wave+. Sick little piece of hardware that thing is...

Selling my Atrix HD....alternatives?

I'm planning to sell off my Atrix HD, got it for 300$ unlocked, selling for the same.
(I'm still unsure if I want to)
I have a normal phone for calls and texting. Phones are expensive here, (One X, S3 - 600$ unlocked, Xperia Z, HTC Butterfly 900$) and no contract systems. Should I get an iPod touch 5? I love how it runs all games smoothly with no compatibility issues, Walking Dead 1-5 is exactly the same as the PC counterpart.
Vita is also an option but it's over priced here at 400$, memory and games cost a ton(50$+)
Will not leave Android, will get a Nexus7. Which of the above two should I get? Any other ideas? (400$ budget)

I'm giving my AHD to a friend that has a crappy old phone. He will be very surprised. I ordered a Nexus 4, wasn't planning on it, but I saw that they were in stock and just followed through with it. I really enjoy trying out different roms/kernels on my Nexus 7, and that experience has always made me feel disappointed in my Atrix HD.
