How to deactivate Airtel 3G?

[Sushubh]

i can get the nexus or the s3. but i am going to wait for the next generation phones. i really wish google clarify their position with motorola soon now that they have completed the acquisition. and then there are rumors that jelly bean release would see nexus devices from five different manufacturers. it's going to be a long wait. getting a nexus today feels like a very bad move. i would be spending 25K on it (wife would pay of course). and by the end of the year i would want to move to the new generation nexus and this phone would fetch little in resale value. trying to see if i can stick with a feature phone for the next six months or so.

That last line, I dont quite buy it Get the s3 and end your feature phone misery

s3 has major issues man. the UI sucks. the display sucks. the features are too creepy. frankly speaking one x is a much much better phone compared to the s3. i should have gone for the nexus in the first place. i have ignored so many wonderful devices in the past (sensation, s2 etc etc) sticking to the nexus brand. should have continued with that. with the month of may almost ending, not really interested in getting the nexus now. SGN was launched in October/November last year which makes it a 7 month old model. i can wait for six months!i am actually tempted to buy the lumia 800 for a change. try out windows phone for six months. might even considering 808 if the pricing is sane which is unlikely to happen though

Apart from the creepy features I find the S3 to be quite nice. A stable CM9 will perhaps make it worth it. But, will you be able to last without the google services ?

 

[Sushubh]

the only reason i use android is that i am a heavy user of google services. and no. i have no desire to root the phone and install cm9 on it. that's why i have been sticking with nexus devices. my major issue with one x was related to ui and i could have waited a decent third party mod. but it's not something that i like to get involved into. so got rid of the phone.

Right. But wouldnt a cheapo android have been better ?

 

[Sushubh]

lol you think i can use a budget android after using a quad core beast?

Depends on your usage actually. What exactly you were using the Quad Core beast for?

they have once again enabled 3g on my Nokia 101. by themselves.
