iPhone 6s. When I first got it, it was fucking amazing. These days I think it's still good but kinda slow and the screen is a bit small. Oh well, it does it's job and I'll get a new phone sooner or later.

Had shitloads of phones, first one was a Nokia 3310, which surprisingly stopped functioning after dropping from 9 story buildings to often. Indestructible my ass!
Since the smartphone age I've always stuck with HTC.
Had the HTC Desire at first, than the HTC S One, HTC Desire EYE and my current new phone the HTC u11 life, which runs Android One (yay no more bloatware), has 64GB internal storage is just alround awesome.
Not too big, looks pretty, good cameras, cool Edge functionality, although more of a gimmick really, don't use it very often.
Android One is pretty awesome, since you get 2 years of guaranteed updates by Google no questions asked and it allows you to delete almost all apps, instead of having annoying bloatware manufacterer apps that just hog up space and can't delete because they're "system" apps.
I could recommend Android One to anyone as it is great, no downsides in my opinion really.
I'm very happy with this phone and would recommend it to anyone as it is also very affordable.
Here's a pic of the u11 life Brilliant Black (there's also a Sapphire Blue version):

My first phone I got when I was 16 or so was some clamshell-style Samsung phone. It didn't do much, but I was just happy to have a phone of my own at the time.

My next phone was a Nokia C3-00. The Nokia C3-00 wasn't too bad as far as the hardware goes, but the OS had some strange glitches. There were some settings I changed by accident and there was no way to change them back! :huh:

My next phone was a Samsung Galaxy S5. I'm still using it. It's been pretty good too me, with the exception the original battery going bad. Good thing it had a removable battery! Even with a new battery, it had JUST enough battery life to last about 12 hours back on Android Kit Kat and Lollipop. Thankfully, the Marshmallow update gave it better battery life. It probably lasts about 16 hours now.

Went with a new Oneplus 5T when my old Moto X Play started needing charging twice a day to last.
what's the point in having a removable battery if you don't change the battery when it gets bad and buy a new phone instead :P
I'm saying that because people shit on iphone users' faces for choosing a phone that doesn't have a removable battery lol

Officially the battery isn't removable and as of such Motorola refuses to sell original batteries leaving you with questionable third-party replacement batteries. The actual replacement procedure doesn't seem too hard though so I might end up fixing it in the future so I can give the phone to someone else.

I own a Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 but I'm restoring an iPhone 6 Plus ATM, I already bought and installed a brand new battery and ordered a refurbished but genuine iPhone screen + front camera and sensors + LCD plate.
After that, I'll order a back housing with laser custom printing of the IMEI and I'm done.
So basically I'm gonna waste 130€ for restoring an iPhone 6 Plus which was given to me with water damage.

    The snack that smiles back, Ballsack!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
