Im going to get mine off Play.com. ?390

Edit! Bloody Gypos play.com they have put the price up 30quid in the last day! Google Shopping showed it was ?390

Get one off eBay, I got mine brand new and sealed in the box for around ?300. At the time that was ?80 cheaper than buying one directly from Three.

Theres one on eBay for 339 and it says Brand New. I want Brand New but for some reason I dont trust the price!

Sounds about the right price, a little bit high tbh.

I sold my 'as new but used' HTC Desire on ebay for £300.

Although I guess Amazon is more hassle free, as if it were to be faulty, you wouldn't have to return it to HTC.

Where do you even get unlocked ones. Even if you buy them PAYG they're still locked to the network usually.

Amazon?

I will look at getting one from there. Maybe eBay but I don't like the thought of using eBay :/

Current contract is up in November so I'll probably wait till September/October time before getting mine. At least Amazon will have (probably) dropped their price and have more in stock!

I'm not sure whether to go back to the official ROM or not. I'm really happy with a mix of OpenDesire 3.0.1 and LauncherPro and not really missing Sense UI.

Is there anything in this new release worth upgrading for?

720p video recording, full flash 10.1 support, apps2sd, 400% speed increase, improved javascript engine/browser, HTC caller id (shows Facebook info when someone calls you) and various other bits :)

He's got all of that bar one anyway.

The only addition which you missed and he may need is iTunes sync.

      You can use MCT to create an updated ISO and then use Rufus to create the bootable USB.

      low latency mode is still bugged and causing bootup times slow to a crawl. To fix, you have to disable the feature with vivetool. Seems as though it's not rolled out to a lot of people yet since I've only been able to find only a handful of people that are having issues.

      I would recommend the Nothing 2a. The battery life is awesome, 2 or 3 days without going into battery power mode. The only thing that I've been looking into recently is that it doesn't "support" Graphene OS. I'm pretty sure there is a way, I just need to do some more looking.

      You'd have to show me an example of a listing that says Gen 1, usually i'd expect that to mean Snapdragon Gen 1 (a type of chipset, which the Pixels don't use). Pixel 7 - White - 128gb - Unlocked - 85%+ battery - Grade B+ - $159 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/398046617206 Pixel 7 - Obsidian - 128gb - Unlocked - 80%+ battery - Very Good - $157 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/355617734563 Both look to be sold by companies with good feedback, dealing with refurbished phones and state the phones are unlocked with a clean IMEI. Obviously I can't vouch for either company though, but the listings look good in my opinion.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By +mram · Posted

      Because Chrome is doing it. And no one said anyone had to update immediately. That's silly. They could update every day for all I care as long as it's fast, and the next time the browser restarts, you're good. And the basic point is not to tee it up for bigger updates. As it is right now, all the windows I had open reopen anyway except inprivate.
