    this is one sexy phone, the downside: android kitkat crap with no access to external sd card

    I've been looking for reliable source to root it so I can put sd card fix app in it :(

    • aim54x on 15/11/2014 - 23:07

      You don't root it. You use the developer version of the rom which includes official root.

      Edit: seems they haven't provided an official option with this model.

      Don't upgrade! jelly bean has no sd card restriction, I will downgrade kitkat back to jelly bean if I could. all my music on sd card become useless/cant be read by any music player app

      • swings on 15/11/2014 - 21:56

        i have the moto G with sd card (android 4.4 i think), while few app like Udemy or podcast dont use sd, the majority are still able to be moved to sd and use the sd space to save files.

        the music is on my sd card and work with google play, didn't try other player to be honest.

        what is annoying it's I can no longer chose freely to save in standard directory, and if an app in uninstalled i guess there is risk to lose the linked data created by it.

      • CyberMurning on 15/11/2014 - 22:24

        wait.. what??? i didnt know this so any phone that using 4.4.x kitkat, cant play mp3/mp4 on the external microsd card (playerpro or mxplayer)? unless you root?

        The restrictions for kit Kat is that you cannot write to the SD external card but you can only read from my understanding..

        • swings on 16/11/2014 - 09:31

          on my motoG apps can only write on their own directory,
          if the app can be moved to SD, it will write on the sd if not data will be on phone storage;
          before apps where able to write everywhere.

          the native motorola cam allows to save on sd or storage

    • gimme on 15/11/2014 - 22:36

      So is this dual sim or not? The desacription here says so but the website says single sim

      • scrimshaw on 15/11/2014 - 22:39

        I copy and pasted descrition from the older deal (it's wrong), unfortunately it does seem to be single sim only.

    • annoynimous on 15/11/2014 - 22:48

      IMO, the dual-sim 3G version is a bit more superior.

      Octa-core 1.7 GHz Cortex-A7 > Quad-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A7
      Mali-450MP4 > Adreno 305
      Dual Sim (incredibly useful for ozbargainers living on 2 SIM plans)
      3200 mAh > 3100 mAh

    • etwu on 16/11/2014 - 22:45

  • Sabric on 15/11/2014 - 23:31

    I bought a cheap mobile phone similar size, it may interest ozbargainers with price tag of $77.
    It says 2 left but they may list again… This is the third listing, sold out twice.
    It is unknown brand and it may turn a junk!!!

      Was thinking it might be a scam. Cause the MT6592 and 720P screen is very very unlikely to be this price, maybe a qHD screen… but not 720P.
      This seems more normal: http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/5-5-Inch-E-Ceros-One…

      • scrimshaw on 16/11/2014 - 00:34

        There's a major red flag asides from the price tag — the eBay seller feedback is set to private.

        Private feedback means you have something to hide.

        • pufffdragon on 16/11/2014 - 02:38

          I don't where you clicked but I could see all his feedback for the past 12 months, and he has a 100% rating

        • scrimshaw on 16/11/2014 - 02:45
          +8

          Well, not private feedback, but private listings..

          There are some major warning signs that this could be a hijacked account.

          I noted his account has seen a lot of activity in the past 30 days. If you look at the feedback, 26 out of his 46 transactions were made in the past 30 days. The account has been active since Aug 2012. And all of a sudden, since last month, this account was used to sell a whole bunch of stuff.

          We have no idea of what he usually sells since the information is hidden. Could be a bunch of cheap clothing and such, as a few of the feedbacks mentions a hat and a snapback, and one knockoff item. This activity closely resembles to that of feedback farming, whereby the seller sells a bunch of low priced stuff for real cheap in order to boost his positive feedback. So you can't trust the 100% rating.

          He has made no purchases with that account (zero feedback as a buyer). He also had a fairly large quantity of smartphones to sell.
          Again, this is a strong indication that this account is a throwaway and possibly was made for the sole purpose of scamming people.

        • gimme on 16/11/2014 - 06:59

          @scrimshaw:

          Am i the only one who can see what he's sold. It's all a bunch of sports Caps. No actual feedback on the supposed 10 phones he has sold. Looks dodgy

        • swings on 16/11/2014 - 11:29

    • jaero115 on 16/11/2014 - 00:19

      Can you get an app to pull all the specs from your own device so that we can confirm it's the real deal?

    • slknv on 16/11/2014 - 10:52

      Looks about right, if you check tinydeal, chinavision,geekbuying that's about the price you pay for a phone of that spec but not usually 720p. I was going to get one, but only dual band 3G (850/2100) isn't good for me on an Optus reseller. I ended up with a landvo quad band for a couple bucks more. Had enough of bad experiences with sony phones dying at the drop of a hat :(

    • Cheaparoo on 17/11/2014 - 13:20

      Sent the seller the message below. Didn't received a reply. Instead, he increased the price from $51.99 to $58.99. He had a 2TB USB3.0 enclosure listing for half retail price too and now is listing some Android notebook at a ridiculously cheap price too.

      I'm pretty sure this is a scam to secure a short-term interest free loan. Wonder if anybody has reported him yet?

      Do you have a photo of this item to prove this is real? I need a phone and cannot afford to be scammed for a short term personal loan.

      A photo will prove this item exists and I'll get it for XMAS.

      Otherwise, the price seems very low and ppl are believing this is a scam at https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/169952#comment-2369487 . Thanks

        He is now listing a Atom-based Windows 8 MeeGo pad ($100 incl postage) but note the much higher retail price (around us$360 dollars)

        Deal Extreme selling it for $380 and Aliexpress for 367.

        To sell at $100 is very unrealistic. At first he had hats to sell, now all of a sudden he is now selling phones and tablets which smells extremely fishy. Usually when an ebay seller suddenly switches from selling low value items to high value ones this is usually a sign that he's about to grab the money and run.

  • Sabric on 16/11/2014 - 00:35

    • [Deactivated] on 16/11/2014 - 02:29

      You can't really compare them… in different price range and sizes are very different as well… (It's got the same size as the 6 plus by the way)
      Performance wise the 5s would have at least the standard of the Snapdragon 600 to 800.

          sd card is useless, can't copy paste mp3 and worst - can't move apps to sd card

          it's not the phone, it's kitkat (android 4.4) restriction.

          Samsung phone still can do this - but google has stop activating the google play and gapps

          @medium_tight: there is a discussion above in this thread, but motoG with kitkat let move mp3 around and read from sd card; most of the apps can be moved to SD too and they'll create data there.

          what you cannot do anymore is having an app saving on different place than the directory of the app

    Chatted with their support. Apparently there is a one year warranty, but you would have to bear the cost of shipping back to China in case you receive a broken device or it breaks down during warranty. Shipping would be around 100 dollars in Australia post so not worth it imo.

      Also remember that your can't post items that contain lithium batteries outbound to overseas by air because of the Austpost restrictions. So you can't send it back even if you wanted to. Warranty = no warranty.

      • scrimshaw on 17/11/2014 - 01:16

        You can still use Pack and Send — though expect to pay something like $53 dollars. Other couriers like UPS will also be willing to carry lithium powered devices too.

    Hi Guys,

    Sorry for bringing up an old post but I have just received my two phone from To2c and I fear I might have got a fake one.

    I'm not very experience with it so I'm hoping my fellow ozbargainer can help me out a little. The first thing I did was ran CPU-Z and I noticed that the chipset is actually MSM8226 <b>not</b> MSM8928 as advertised.

    I've uploaded a screenshot from the phone, any help of identifying the product would be greatly appreciated.

    • CyberGenesys on 17/12/2014 - 12:52

      Easy way to tell if it's fake is measure the screen size a real one is 5.5inch but yours (according to screenshot) is 9.17 inch :O I would suggest trying a different spec detecting app just in case it is reading the information wrong.

      Tip: to bold text, put double asterisks in place of <b> tags. When you write a comment, at the bottom of the comment box there is a 'Formatting Help' link.

      • isave on 17/12/2014 - 23:04

        Thanks for the tip mate..appreciated.

        Also,
        Screen size is definitely 5.5inch and I was able to re-flash the Official rom so I guess all is good..phew had me worry there for a sec..

        Thanks for the help.
