I got sick of iOS and wanted something new. I heard Android was the next best alternative and I have always liked Sony Ericsson Phones. And I still do like SE phones.

 

same here
well not sick of iOS, i still like my old iphone, but wanted something to be customizable (tired of hacking )

 

Hahahahaa asif you hacked an xbox to put porn on a bigger telly, the determination is amazing haha!

Im waiting for it just to make sure it works right when i get it, and to have it as more of a midpoint for the next update

Mainly because of the bad feedback to it, im tryin not to get too excited (and void my insurance!) Thougj i would like the hd video camera :O

 

no i mean i had my first iphone 3g bricked... about a year ago...
so switched the simcard in my K790a, called my carrier(Rogers) they sent me a new iphone and i sent them the bricked one ( told them i had no more reception ) and kept it LEGAL until i sold it to my brother for a high price of 100$ (the price of my x10a)

-----------
and trust me i will NEVER hack any game console, anymore (since i chipped my classic playstation 5500 series and broke 2 weeks after)...

 

The first thing I do when I get any phone is sit and play with it, as I like to figure stuff out for myself so find it baffling sometimes when people ask questions that they would already know had they done the same. Granted some stuff isn't always apparent but the majority of what a user needs to know can be found by playing with the phone.

 

I also like to see what is in the phone, I like to costomize it, it is the best you can do with this phone, in fact that is one reason why i bought it, because you can change a lot of things, not like the iphone or other phones, that have crappy look and they all look the same !

 

I use mine for hours endlessly every day to surf the internet. I couldn't do that with anything else.. I also use it for tethered internet access on my netbook. I use it for quick messaging (I type with an on-screen keyboard faster than a hard keyboard) and I use it for gaming. I also use it as a camera quite often.

Customizing the interface is a perk, not a necessity. These things above are REALLY using the phone.. customizing crap on the screen or having the latest OS? Small potatoes for me. The phone does what I need it to do.

 

1st reason - it was cheap. Free on renewal.
1.5'ish reason - Needed a limited use media player & was sick of borrowing my kids PSP.
2nd reason - one of the best cameras on a free phone.
3rd reason - it's an Android phone. Didn't know how customizable it was but enjoying it daily.

 

Double post.

 

When you say "Play with it" do you mean the rooting/debranding or just tweaking the look?

If you mean rooting then most folk dont want to void the warranty on the phone and to be fair Android was not just aimed at the sort of geeks that sit in a darkened room typing code into their PC all day. It was also aimed at the general public who want to have a phone to send emails texts and make a phone call.

After all it's a phone

 

i chose it first of all for the look and the lack of iOs... i wanted to jump the smart bangwagon but not with any phone. It was either that of a non-smart with a Ipod for my music so if i can do both with one device it's better!

 

SO was my old LG KC910 a smart phone?

It could take a 16gb card and had the best camera I have used on a phone could play back MP3's MP4's and WMV's, it could record in 120fps had a xenon flash and even had built in dolby sound enhancer like the HTC Desire HD and it would plug strait into a TV to watch films and any captured videos.

Oh it even had widgets to place on the home screen..

In fact apart from having access to a greater amount of apps I feel like I downgraded when I got the X10.

 

I mean start it up and go through the menus, settings ect, find out what does what, instead of taking to the internet to find out the most basic of things. Modding and stuff comes later.

 

LOL I was kinda aiming that one at the OP'er in relation to his title and wording in their first post.

 

I bought this phone for the 8.1MP camera, so I can take pictures with your mom, please do not take offense.

 

I doubt he will as your mums is round his filching him

 

wat.

 

Sorry "felching"

My bad

 

I thought it was as current as last night, hardly old. I'm talkin DOWNTOWN! but seriously, I love other peoples moms.
