wait what? hahahhahahaha

bmobile is the worst yes. i went in to find out how much for the iphone 5. told them im looking at a post paid price where i renew my contract etc. they watch me dead in my eye and tell me 4800. then i ask for the prepaid price, they tell me 4800

LOL

my friend got one for almost 2300 with 200 for a iphone sim, 230ish a month for either 1 year or 2

[Spitfir3]

LOL 4k for an s2? i hope those prices outdated...
if you want new best bet would be to bring it een yourself (ebay) just pray you don't get a faulty device

[kurpal_v2]

Guys, gotta question, wanna update my s3, it's starting to freeze at random times and playstore won't open.


Do I have to backup my data to a pc or can I OTA and not have to plug into a pc?

Well u can plug in to ur pc and update

Would advise u to back up ysing Samsung kies , to completely back up all your data , I created a folder on my desktop and drag and dropped all files and folders from the phone to the desktop,

Would not advise ota update, unless u have a constant reliable internet and a full battery,


I highly recommend downloading the Update firmware from sammobile or xda developers original firmwarw thread , gwt odin 3.09 and flash the update , as it requires no internet connection. ....I find it safer as no interruptions can occur, and will not void any warranties nor increase binary count

Sooooo I can't just hit update and let the bugger do the work? I have to use software to flash etc ?

I got the xt910. Mines still on Ginger doh. Works good. Saw some links to go straight to jelly bean but I ain't try them yet.

[ismithx]

i wud recommend the Xperia M. good phone, awesome specs, good processor, huge battery.

probably about 2k tt

[Spitfir3]

^ good suggestion i was more looking at the xperia L doh

[ismithx]

tru dat... but the M is a bit cheaper and more recent if you're willing to put up with the .3" difference in screen size

[Ted_v2]

I don't think you know what you're saying. The support S2 has, beats that phone by miles.

And this is coming from a Sony fanboy.

dan yuh Defy waterproof too

[Ted_v2]

LOL not really, last time it fell in water the screen got fuzzy and the mike wasnt working . however its normal after like 2 hours.
the z is totally waterproof, meaning it can take running water and work at once.

s2 is 2 years old

xperia has a slightly more screen res
xperia cams are worse
but the processor is better Krait vs Cortex A9
and the battery is a bit bigger.

XDA support for xperia m should kick in shortly, its a very new device. Believe me I did consider all these things
