Writing off my phone. Should I buy another G300?

[Guest dbaseii]

Hi Guys

I received my third battery but still having the same issue of it shutting down soon after getting to the homescrern

Should I get another or buy something different thats less than £150.

What do you think?

[Guest ChrisPNE]

Which network are you on?

If I was buying a new phone I'd get an Orange San Diego, but it depends which network you are on.

Agreed. Great phone for £100

Isn't it unlocked now?

No, its on ICS now

[Guest popoyaya]

Good specs but being Intel doesn't that mean most apps are not compatible?

Also off your in to flashing roms ect than your better off with something other than the osd at the minute

Owned a G300 for around 8 months coming from a San Francisco, it seemed a good phone but problems with low ringtones and low mike volume annoyed me, despite updates and installing custom roms the problem was still there, Now I have a San Diago and well its really loads better, just feels nice and is quick as well as nice volume on ringtone, brighter screen, slimmer, lighter. No flashing of roms means I leave it alone and use it rather than keep messing around with it.

I have been put off the OSD as it seems too locked down. So I have ordered a Jiayu G3

just had my G300 hit with a golf ball this morning, its knackered now! Any advice on a replacement other than osd? I'm in Cyprus at the moment so would need a PAYG a friend could pick up for me this week.

was about to stick mine on eBay for 60 quid, does have a scratch on the screen that you can see when screen is of but you can't see it when on and does not effect use. Just don't need it now I have my Jiayu. Let me know if interested and I can take a pic of the screen to show you.

Which is sometimes a good thing;)

Recieved my Jiayu G3 yesterday. Excellent phone. The build quality is great. Already rooted

[Guest Maximus9]

But what happens if the phone develops a fault?
