HA!!! But yeah, the LG G3 is locked on AT&T...root was easy thanks to Stumproot and now they have Bump to flash ROMs...will be a week or two before the ROMs start showing up. But root and Xposed is not bad as long as a good toolkit is available.
Yeah, I'm going to research the Sprint version if I don't get aroused by the Nexus 6/X/Shamu/whatever the hell they're going to call it.

I see our old friend @xboxfanj is on the M8 development! That alone makes me think about going the HTC route! :victory:

Both phones are truly a marvel in hardware. If removable battery is more important than sound, go LG. Both have sd card capability. Also do not buy sd cards on ebay...got a fake 64GB that I am dealing with now. Only 4GB was usable!

Oh no... That's horrible man.. Check out Amazon, haven't been screwed over on there yet. Bought my 64gb SD for around $30, my zerolemon 7000mah Battery for about $35/40, ZLrugged case for $20. Everything combined with my s3 running Bilger's Rom is extraordinary.
I highly doubt I will get another phone anytime soon; The case is a beast and I have a screen replacement warranty.
Amazon + Pay Pal = excellent customer service(from my experience)

Yeah...I am sure I will get a refund..but the time wasted trying to get it working ticks me off.....I will stick to 32GB cards for now after that experience. Ordered a 32GB for my GF for her upcoming Note 4 for $16 on Amazon!

Alright, so 60 bucks for both isnt out of the realm of fairness.. Ive never purchased replacement parts for a phone, or done the labor before. Should be interesting lol. Its got such good specs I just cant let it goto waste. Its less than 3 days old with a busted screen&digitilizer. Sad times
Be VERY CAREFUL when doing anything with the digitizer

Bumping the OT thread... Fun Android ish news to share: I received a pretty cool and unexpected award at work, partly for an Android app + companion web app I made for students. Last night was a fancy recognition ceremony and conference, and I got one of the awards, for my tech-geek-ness. Fun for me. A few of you guys tested the Android edition for me over the summer... I'm all proud of myself at the moment. :)

Anybody play any of the elder scroll games? The Elder Scrolls Anthology is pretty epic, before I bought it I only played oblivion and morrowind. Skyrim is a huge game lol the package comes with the legendary edition. Bought mine for $30 bucks on pc (console commands rule)
Finally found something good for my gamer pc :) lol

No, but if you're into animé, I highly suggest "The Future Diary". It is the most amazing story, it's only 26 episodes but you should be able to find it English dubbed.. The premise is God (Deus Ex Machina) is dying and needs a successor, he chooses 12 people to give diaries that tell the future and they must battle to the death to become the new God.
