I am considering ordering an HTC one V from the US. I saw that you mentioned that it is easy to unlock an Android phone? Does this mean we can do it ourselves. Also, the Craiglist website keeps redirecting to the India websites. It would be great if you could share exact links. One V on Bestbuy/ Amazon is 180$. Cheers, Tapish | |

Team-BHP Support ![]() ![]() | ![]() Works like a charm. No issues at all ! I dont see any major difference between the mail client in GB and ICS. Mostly cosmetic only. |

Can you post some SS if possible? I am worried about HTML support on Exchange 2003. Stock GB is performing well in that case, but read somewhere about some issues in ICS regarding it. | |

This is the same 3rd party service provider with which an ebay seller has tied up and provides so called proper warranty for Nexus in his deals. | |

| ![]() Help requested from the resident Android sages!! 4 months back I bought a Samsung Galaxy Y to test the android world. 2 months back two small black spots - the size of pin heads appeared on the phone's screen. Day before yesterday the earpiece on the phone stopped functioning. The other party can be heard by activating the speakerphone option. Promptly went to the Samsung service centre opposite Nehru Place in Delhi. The service center tech who attended to me said the phone was under warranty therefore I need not be concerned about the cost of repair. Then on an afterthought she took off the back cover and started fiddling around with a tweezer and said there is a hairline crack around the headphone jack and therefore the warranty is void. This inspite of the back cover being intact with no cracks or even marks on it My questions to you are:- [] Is the statement that there is a hairline crack and therefore the warranty is voided, a valid/reasonable reason on the basis of which to void the warranty? If this can be contested can anyone give any pointers to someone in Samsung senior enough to take up the matter with? Or I should simply trade the damn thing in and recoup whatever I can and avoid the aggravation? [] Does this fault sound like a hardware fault or it could be software(OS) related? [] Irrespective of the outcome of this fiasco I will have to acquire a new handset - which shall be an Android only and shall NOT be a Samsung. I have seen the mess at their service center and is reminiscent of Nokia in it's heydays. Read through the last 20 odd pages of this thread and came to the conclusion that Motorola Defy+ is a VFM option for the basic usage I intend like telephone calls, very limited texting and some GPS usage on occassion, limited camera use. The concern that has been voiced time and again is Motorola's presence in India. Is this a valid concern? I am also considering HTC Wildfire S and Sony Xperia U/Miro as alternates. Will appreciate input on how VFM they are thought to be by those who are clued in on these matters and how robust they are in terms of hardware/software quality. I am not willing to exceed a 15K odd spend on this. [] An additional use I intend to put the phone to is to record the telephone calls I need to make to my stock broker. I am aware this is hardware independent and software dependent - am open to correction here. Is there any app that does this i.e. record telephone calls reliably, every option that I have tried till now has been practically worthless. Any pointers/guidance will be most gratefully appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

| ![]() Is this the Nexus that you guys are talking about? If not, is this a good phone at this price? http://www.flipkart.com/samsung-goog...0-5fd9ed00553e |

The one we all keep discussing is Samsung Galaxy Nexus I9250. That is not officially available in India. Last edited by nishantgandhi : 23rd September 2012 at 23:19. | |

Motorola service is going to be patchy in the coming months. Though I doubt you'll ever need to take your 'DEFY' to the service center, it is water & dust resistant already. The Defy has a very matured Dev support in ROMs etc. and is a very durable, bang for the buck phone.If its durability you are after, then go for defy+/defy eyes closed. Xperia U doesn't have MicroSD slot, but has a good cam, and a great GPU (Mali 400), which is miles ahead of SGX530 in gaming & Video.SE service is average, even in Delhi. Xperia is great for the multimedia buff/gamer/video and photography. | |
