hi
i have replied to ur PM on this the HTC explorer is good if she only wants to use the phone for just calls and all i have dont any rooting or flashing on this phone as it is being used by my wife and she wont allow me to do anything on it
u can look at the new Mi425 or the new HTC Desire C
@haree thanks for the tip.
anybody else got a say?
Don't go with cheap company for your sis., go with reputed like HTC as haree has suggested. HTC, Samsung and Sony has some phones in that range... I'd suggest you to go through this thread over here

ok, got the wrong impression about explorer that he suggested you, my suggestion would be HTC Explorer, BB Storm or if you can wait then Sony is going to release some new phones

i dont know about the trustability i just saw it gave u the info
u can chek this phone too
Samsung galaxy Y
. It is good features like 2 mega pixel camera, 830 MHz ARMv6 processor, Android OS and v2.3.5 (Gingerbread), 3.0 inches and TFT capacitive touchscreen, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, 7.2 Mbps data transfer speed, good battery life ect.
has more phone space than the explorer
the exp has only around 180MB this one has 300MB and is a little sleeker and girls would tend to like sleeker phones

I'm with you on this bro. I have a feeling that they would cost 15k atleast......
also galaxy y has got a display of a 1k color phone so, not gonna go with that.
anybody experienced the bb storm firsthand? any comments?

don't go with BB.... its nothing but waste of money Instead if u r looking for non android phone then any Nokia mobile in that range will serve the job better than BB ... BB charge for everything after u purchase mobile means if you want net then activate BB service which are above RS. 400 for most of operators ... if you want youtube access then need higher pack of BB services and so on .. BB is best suited to corporate world where everything is paid by company not for personnel one ....
Nokia C6 01 would be great phone if going for non android stuff
Phone for Sister
I had given my Spice phone for a few days to my wife and switched back to my wife's blackberry ...
She was not happy with spice phone at all .. she was not happy with camera and pictures , she termed the phone very slow and found navigation and others very difficult so i would say its personal choice to go with android but i would advice go with Samsung or Sony Xperia for woman the looks of the phone are also very critical factor
I brought huawei ideos x5 pro for my wife @13750/- a month back
I have rooted it but keeping stock rom and she says battery life is excellent
Since it's already the 26th in South Korea, did the release of the Note 4 happen? Does anyone know?
I called my local shop and my preorder will either be in this evening or on Monday :/

Is the official cover still using the same cheap plastic or have they improved it?
it *IS* plastic, but I would not call it cheap.
neither price-wise, nor quality.

Octacore Exynos. Very smooth and fast. Not sure about the impressions, as quite different philosophy after my present Nexus 4.

Any word on the battery life yet?
If you have the time, could you please run it down from 100 to 0 on a single charge and post the screen on time?
That would be really awesome.
I don't mind the performance gap between the Exynos and the Snapdragon, but if the Exynos provides significantly better battery life, I might import one of these models.

here are the shots you asked.
i have not used the device much, it was mostly sitting next to me. strangest thing it went overnight down from 54% to 25%, i have a feeling that'a a *lot* for a standby.
will charge now and see again.
@hempy
sort of.
i was not looking for accessories, just the cover. and these were there, 5 or 6 colours if i remember correctly. white, dark grey, pink, bronze and cherry. so 5.

with my twitter feed blowing up with 5.0 this 5.0 that im kinda wondering when we will get some 5.0 release
Rumors are sometime in December.
Doubt if I'll accept the update.
This is the first android device i bought new. My rooted s4 was used. I got sick of all the glitchyness with the rooted phone. My note 4 is completely stock and I couldnt be happier with how silky smooth touchwiz is. Im not even sure im interested in uograding to lollipop.

Woa bro, asking for ETA is so rude.

Sorry, just wanted to add my .02. I dont think anyone on this forum can accurately answer the op's question.
I'm running Firekat on my Note and it's simply amazing. I am interested in Lollipop but to be honest, I am extremely happy with how my phone is running now.
To answer the OP, I read somewhere that the update would hit around February.

I don't know guys......5.0 could be a silent Ebola for our N4.
Google's been doing some weird things lately. Lock down stuff weird. This is the first time I'm like...eehhh.....what is to come?
Having a new design is one thing, but....getting a shot where you have no idea what's in it is pretty eerie.

Something on a smaller scale, but just as frustrating back in the day was the whole 4.4 thing where you couldn't go back to 4.3 ... remember that?
5.0 will be the death of Knox since it's built in to 5.0

Apple is not garbage believe me or not Their products are very well made. I got an iPhone 6 plus and by any mean this device has the best battery I ever seen in a smart phone since i-Mate I used to get almost 11 to 12 hours SOT. I was killing it just to force the battery to die in one day and I couldn't do it... I still love my Note 4 by the way

We don't know if it'll work for Qualcomm s7 in general yet. But if so then yeah hopefully.

Same. I'm waiting for the s9. Be sweet to have a custom recovery and Rom on this thing though.
This would be awesome, although I'm not holding my breath.
lets keep our fingers crossed that we can have a stable root on S7e soon.
Yeah root no eng boot !

He looked at it, responded back to me. He was asking me to build a special cable that I'm not able to make. I'm not sure if he has others testing or not. But he did say at first glance the bug that he exploited on other variants did not appear to be present.

That is S7 Edge international read previous posts and screen objects no hope for perm root on ANY AT&T FUTURE SAMSUNG DEVICES he even told me
he didnt tell me the bold red part but the rest and thats because AT&T and SAMSUNG are crazy locking bootloaders. AT&Ts bad in general but stuck on business plan so just switching away from samsung and only buying unlocked phones direct from carrier is best bet if you want root perm and recovery. thats what im doing done personally giving my money to AT&T.

I caved, and was sick and tired of problems. I had 4 S7Es, 2 Nexus, and 2 S5s, my boyfriend's on his 2nd LG, my friend's S7E has extremely bad screen burn. My daughter has never had an issue with her iPhone. I went out and bought one. If I can't have root, I might as well have an Apple. At least the battery isn't dead by lunch.

Does your AT&T plan include tethering? Because I'm pretty sure the iPhone checks to make sure you are allowed before turning it on as well.
That said, I'm also bummed about the root situation, but for other reasons. I did find a pretty good firewall in NetGuard, and (ironically) the Package Disabler app that only works on Samsung devices was able to disable most of the bloat. Only the ability to backup and restore individual apps (or even just their data) is missing, and why I still wish I had root.
(yes, I know I can use ADB for some backups, but I'm not sure downgrades are possible that way)
