Root I'm leaving :(

Hey guys. Sorry but not sorry to say I got tired of cheap phones. I got the nexus 6 and am loving it! I'm thinking about donating my volt to a reputable Dev. The screen is cracked but works perfectly fine and I have the extra just don't have the double sided tape. Any reputable Devs in mind?

Yup we got a lot further because of your initial work on the stock Roms and such. Sorry to see you go but hell if I could get a nexus 6 I'd be right behind you. Good luck on your future adventures!

How's the battery on that? I assume it can be rooted? I am looking into getting Sprints $60 Unlimited plan to use as my internet access because screw Comcast. Unfortunately they won't just let me bring my Volt, which is utterly stupid.

Thanks for all the thanks guys, even though I don't feel like I really deserve them haha. It's been fun though.

Not bad, if you look at this screenshot I still have 7 hours left. But keep in mind the screen is ginormous and I have a lot of features on, so I think for what it is it's really good. The phone sure is an upgrade times a million from the volt. Oh how buttery smooth and fast this phone is though. And rooting is a cinch! It's like Google is COMPLETELY okay with it. Just OEM unlock in boot loader and flash away! One thing that caught me of guard though was I thought I'd be paying 200 up front for the phone and 60 a month. I thought the phone was only 200 but you still have to pay for the phone but it's included in the bill. So instead of 60 I'd pay 85 over the course of two years to pay it off. I've never done post paid before but I have a decent job now.

If I could donate one it would be to @PunchUp, the creator of an Xposed module called "Text Xposed", over at XDA who is trying to make his module compatible with LG devices. I love this module because it adds a define button to the options when you hilight a word in a text field or adds a define option under the share menu in apps like chrome.
