Hi, I would like to buy a c9 pro but most likely used so it will be cheaper. Can you please tell me what to look for when I get to have a meetup for the phone?
I have searched that I need to check the *#0*# and or checking IMEI and match it on imei.info but I was wondering if Korean variants have that option/function as well?
I want to get the black but does the black have Snapdragon chipset and Gold/pink to have Qualcomm? Which one is better to get? Please give examples.
I want to buy this because it has good camera MP and memory overall. I don't play much games.. So rarely and won't be a deep gamer for this phone.
S9 plus is a bit too much to get as value will get depreciated after a year. Please help. Thanks!!

Hi,
This question is about i9500 vs i9505
First I want to say that I did go through most of the thread regarding this issue but am confused with the inconsistency.
I'm hoping someone could give me solid advice.
I'm not a person who changes phones quarterly and I hope to use this phone for 2 years. I'm buying the phone outright, no contract (hence no insurance) so I hope you'd understand why I'm picky about getting the best version.
From what I've read, following are the differences between the two:
1) Stutters and lags in games
2) Camera
3) Headphones
4) Battery
Regarding LTE, I will not use it.
My main requirement is a reliable phone. I can live with photos which are a bit saturated or a screen that is no black "black" when turned off.
I just want a phone which I will have the least chance of sending back (I live in Japan and I'm buying this from HongKong. Any repair I need to courier the phone and costs me nearly $100 each time). Having said that, I do like to have the fastest phone for the $700 I pay.
So what do you guys advice?
I'm confused by the reports that says Exynos is faster when Snapdragon is clocked at 1.9GHz vs. Exynos 1.6GHz.
And also I see people swear that Exynos version stutters and lags in games.
On the other hand, I do want to use my headphones. I read the problem only happens to high-end low-impedence headphones. So if I'm using a normal headphone I'd fine with i9500?
Would really appreciate some advice.
Thank you.
I would go with the i9505 with snapdragon being better at releasing source. It is also the same hardware as the US/Canada version so that makes even more development available. I would have to assume the i9505 version can flash us roms since I am running omega on my at&t phone

Hi guys
the G pad actually completely convinces me despite the better screen on the upcoming Galaxy pro 8.4. In any case, anyone out there from Oz land who can help with the following questions: I can't buy the Gpad in black as I would like to, no Oz retailer will order it in (?) Is there any of the grey market firms out there that is actually ok to order from? Also would you advise Google play version vs LG, and how could a mere mortal Ozzie achieve that?
Does anyone who's had the gpad for 6 months think I should rather invest in the SG pro 8.4? Please give me some advice. Most important to me is reliability, sd card slot, size (8-9"), battery and lightness. Thanks so much in advance
just broke my old faithful s3 ,never bothered with the s4 ,so looking to buy an s5 , whats the main diffences to spot on the latest clone s5 as these are getting very good copies. are all clones still usb 2.0 or are there any usb3.0 clones available ?
is it possible just by checking the device firmware/software or are they now up to date with roms etc .
any advice would be appreciated.
..
Most clones use the Mediatek SoC because they are cheap, apps like CPU-Z will show this under the hardware setting eg MT65XX (MT=MediaTek)

..
The best way is to check if the fingerprint scanner works because it's highly unlikely a copy would have it.
Best weapon to prevent buying a fake device is only to do business when with a bill a purchase with corresponding Imei number when you meetup with a seller, btw if its seems too cheap it usualy is

managed to get one with recipt payg phone unlocked mint condition for£260 gold,black root and firmware modding herei come ,cant get use to the new layout prefered the old settings system.
People still forge receipts to make phones look genuine so still check everything mentioned, because £260 is the perfect price for a copy to be just expensive enough to seem like a genuine bargain.

Hello,
today I want to introduce the new smartphone from ZTE.
It's the ZTE Blade S6.
The main specs are a 5inch 720p Display, 2gb Ram and 16gb Rom and the storage is expandable. It is a DualSim phone (Nano simcard) with DualStandby and supports 4G LTE, too.
It comes with the brand new Snapdragon 615 (MSM8939) octacore processor clocked at 1,5GHz and the 64bit technology.
As you can see on the pictures below it is very thin with only 7,7mm and has small bezels around the screen. The back of the phone looks similar to the iPhone 6 with a 13mpx shooter from Sony (IMX214), a led flash, the ZTE branding and the loudspeaker. On the right side there is the volume rocker and the power button. On the other side are the sim trays and the place where you can put the micro SD-card inside. The USB-charging port is on the bottom and the 3,5mm headphone jack on top of the phone.
The overall look is very clean with round edges and handy sizes.
On the front of the phone you can see the 5inch HD Display and a blue homebutton you maybe already know from other ZTE devices like the Nubia Z5S, Z7 or ZTE V5. The front camera has 5mpx and should be perfect for some selfies.
The phone also supports some Smart Sense, which lets you launch apps like the music player or flashlight with gestures like flicking your wrist.
Very special is that the ZTE Blade S6 comes with Android 5.0 Lollipop and ZTE's own MiFavor 3.0 UI. The Google PlayStore is pre installed and it supports multilanguage. You can order the phone in two colors (silver, matte pink).
mod edit: Advertising for 3rd party vendors is against XDA rules
ZTE Blade S6 Specification Overview:
Network:GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz WCDMA 900/2100MHz FDD-LTE 800/900/1800/2600MHzPlatform:Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 615 octa-core chipset (MSM8939)Operating System:Android 5.0 LollipopSize:144 x 70.7 x 7.7mmDisplay:5.0inch 720p HD with In-Cell TechnologyCamera:Back: Sony IMX214 13mpx, Front: 5mpxBattery:2400mAhInterface:3.5mm Earphone Port, Dual Nano SIM, 5pin Micro USB, Micro SDMemory:16GB eMMC + 2GB RAM DDR3
Please check out the attached pictures of the ZTE Blade S6 in both colors silver and matte pink.
I will get one phone in the next 1-2 weeks and then I will write a full review of this phone, so stay tuned.
Update: Gearbest has sent me a new coupon code that I would like to share with you.
Code: ZTES6JY
-> Blade S6 costs 214,99$ with shipping from Germany. So it is very interesting for the customers from Europe because they don't have to pay taxes.
Iphone Look Alike
Looks Like iPhone.Well, after sales support is my only concern .
I really like the design, too and the specs look very nice. The Snapdragon 615 should have enough power and an HD screen is enough for 5inch. I hope that the battery will last a whole day or even a bit more.
I don't have any experience with after sale support, so I can't tell you something about it but ZTE is a nig brand and so I think there won't be any production issues.
looking at the frequency this phone should work on the rogers network in canada right? Is it unlocked from the factory?
Yes, it comes definately unlocked but please check the network used by rogers by your own. I'm not an expert and don't want to say something wrong.
I have updated Post 1#.
From today on the phone will be sent out and I hope that I will receive my phone next week.
I'm also waiting for Blade S6...I payed it 263usd but today you can get it for 249 on AliExpress... if there is any root guide, please share...
As posted above you can get it with an coupon code from gearbest for 234$, which I think is a good price for a Snapdragon phone from a big brand.
They dont sell to north america in this sale..
I thought they would sell worldwide.

Now is Chinese New Year and probably they will ship after New Year, I am still waiting for shipment details also
@naruto42 I get my phone from gearbest. The shop link is in post 1. My Blade S6 is at the moment stuck at the customer center in Germany. I hope that I will receive it this week.
I already got mine here in germany! Any ideas for gaining root?
Have you tried Framaroot?
yes, unfortunately its not working.
Tried: Framaroot, SRSRoot, Saferoot, iRoot, OneClickRoot, Eroot, Root Kit.
OneClickRoot submitted some data, maybe they can work something out?!
I will try to root it if I receive my phone. I have googled for ZTE Blade S6 root and the result was an instruction to Eroot.
Hello,
my dad is thinking about buying note 3 n9006 variant, n9005 is also an option, but price difference in our contry is huge. About 150€+ between these models. From specs I can see that only difference is internal memory, and it's ridiculous to pay that much just for extra 16GB. So I'm wondering is there any other major differences between these two models? For ex. camera quality, display quality, and overall quality of the phone.
Any input would be appreciated.
9006 China dual sim .
9005 International version .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2574886
Samsung SM N9006 is not only dual sim , I have this phone and is the single SIM variant,difference between the two phones is the model 9006 comes without the Play Store installed.
Thanks for replys. After reading whole thread @JJEgan pointed me to, we went to check our local seller that had the phone, and after checking it, I'm pretty sure it was one hell of a good clone, so we've given up on buying it.

Is Samsung still selling the note 3?

In my country, no. Official samsungs resellers do not have Note 3 in stock and will not getting any of it. In some other stores there's a used ones, and "new" ones which appears to be clones.
If the screen was Super Amoled, which is not hard to check, then it wasn't a clone...
