pretty much anything under $300. and don't really care about the UI whether it be vanilla or not as long as I can access the play store. just pretty much looking to use it for this trip and maybe get rid of it after that.

I would head to Best Buy they have a section dedicated to Tablets, and in all honesty (unless you wanna quickly drag and drop files) Walmart has (or had) the iPad Mini for 299, and imo that is the best tablet out.

Cheap Samsung Tablets

here you go knock yourself out. 140.00 for the tab 2 used is not bad. imo if you want something simple and hardly gonna use.

Decided to root and rom my Nexus 4. Using Paranoid Android. Loving the rom, but looking for a kernel that has better battery life. I really like the colors of the stock kernel that comes with PA, anyone have anything similar?

What are you guys using?

I wonder how the HTC first would have done if they just came right out and put it as a pure android device for $49.99...

Pure android isn't really that big a selling point with the mainstream people out there. And the same people that care about it, are the ones that are more likely to root their phones.

HTC First had nothing special about it at all. It was marketed as the Facebook phone, but at the end of the day Facebook Home is just a launcher. And within a week of First release, Facebook made it so anyone can download Home on any phone and have exact same thing for free, quiet possibly with a better camera and/or battery life. And since the selling point was free, at the end of the day HTC First was pointless.

Bingo.

I don't know why HTC didn't have some exclusive window for the Facebook phone, or at least for HTC phones for at least 4 - 6 weeks

Anyone have the black HTC One? Does it scratch easily? Going to Costco to switch out my silver for a black.

[COLOR=#red]Yes it scratches easily, but that's not because it's an HTC One, but because it's made of Aluminium and Al scratches and scuffs easily...many times you can just rub it out thought. If you want to keep it scratch/scuff free you either have to be extremely careful with it or get a case. Yes I have tested it myself.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=#red]Verizon & Sprint GALAXY NEXUS OWNERS FREE BATTERY & COVER[/COLOR]

Just pay for shipping which is like $6.50(damm battery retails for $50.00) so don't complain like them people on SD.

ORDER GALAXY NEXUS BATTERY

Use promo code: BATTERY1


disclaimer:Since this is a Sprint back cover, Verizon GNEX owners would have to break a tab off to fit it in.

Bonus: The battery can also fit in a T-MOBILE GALAXY S2 OR a at&t skyrocket. You probably won't be able to fit your back cover though

Thanks for this. Placed an order as soon as I saw it and it arrived yesterday. Works out too because I couldn't find my original Samsung battery and only had my Anker extended. Now I have two extended just in case.

Uh oh...

Apparently the HTC One "Google Edition" is real.

From Android Central:

'Google Edition' HTC One coming soon with vanilla Android

HTC One with vanilla Android
The rumors are true — HTC and Google will collaborate on a 'Nexus user experience' version of the HTC One

Ever since the Samsung Galaxy S4 “Google Edition” announcement at Google I/O last week, rumors have been circulating that HTC might follow suit with a vanilla version of its own flagship device. Recently, Russell Holly of Geek.com and Paul O’Brien of MoDaCo have chimed in with reports that such a device is on the way. Today we can confirm through our own sources that despite official denials, the “Google Edition” HTC One is indeed real, and will be announced in the next week or so.

Let's take a look at what we know, and what it could mean.

Like the special “Google Edition” Galaxy S4, timely updates will be promised alongside the “stock” Android user experience on this HTC One. One source believes that in exchange for early access to upcoming Android code, “Google Edition” OEMs like HTC and Samsung will be subject to certain deadlines for preparing updates for their vanilla Android handsets. HTC would also enjoy higher margins on these vanilla HTC Ones, as additional licensing fees for certain Sense 5 software features would not apply. All in all, it’s a pretty good deal for everyone.
Questions raised

The existence of a Google Edition HTC One raises several questions, however. The current two-buttoned HTC One relies on an unsightly on-screen bar for legacy menu key support, so how would this work on a vanilla Android variant? It's unlikely that menu key functionality could be re-mapped to, say, a long-press of the back key, as it's previously been confirmed that Google doesn't want HTC hiding the menu button. The most direct (but unlikely) solution would be a change to the hardware key layout, assuming Google and HTC want to avoid losing screen space to an on-screen menu bar.

What's more, the presence of stock Android on an HTC One would likely rule out software tricks like Beats Audio. This could have a knock-on effect on features like the "BoomSound" front-facing speakers, which take advantage of Beats software enhancements. Similarly, the "UltraPixel" camera could likely lose some of its fancier imaging tricks -- side-by-side shots have already shown a marked reduction in image quality for HTC Ones running CyanogenMod 10.1-based firmware compared to HTC Sense 5.

Then there's the question of the power button-mounted IR blaster. Could this component lie dormant in the new Googlified HTC One, or will new software be included to take advantage of it? These are all things worth considering before assuming that an HTC One with stock Android might be better than one with Sense.

Regardless, it's great news for buyers in the U.S. wanting the latest vanilla Android from Google on the latest hardware from HTC. (We’re still in the dark about international availability of Google Edition handsets, unfortunately.) We’re expecting an official announcement in the next week, and it’s likely the Google Edition HTC One will go on sale around the same time as its Galaxy S4 counterpart -- though we’re not hearing any specifics on release dates or pricing just yet.

Given the choice, would you prefer vanilla Android on a Galaxy S4 or HTC One? Hit the comments and let us know.
