[Q] How much is my WF worth? - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I consider selling my HTC Wildfire . My problem:
How much is it still worth? For how much should I sell it?
I've rooted my phone and have flashed cm7...

Depends where you are staying, but honestly, its not worth much. You get a new HTC Explorer here for 50% of the price I got my Wildfire for, and a Wildfire S for 75% of the price. Besides, with the many budget phones launched by other companies like Samsung / Sony etc (Which are actually pretty decently specced for their price), it further erodes the price of the Wildfire.
You can look at your regional eBay / classifieds for ideas. Try selling locally to someone who you know needs one. That way, you may get better value.

Ok thanks i gonna try to sell it local for about 85€

In India its about Rs 7000/- so i guess should be about 50% to the actual value...but if the buyer is interested in Rooted ROM then u r lucky..

Is the desire worth buying?

As the the topic name says.. is it worth buying nowadays, i can get it for a pretty cheap price.
If you can get it really cheap why not? lol, i mean, it's a good smartphone. pretty good actually. obviously you must be aware of its limitations.
Only if you're going to root it and get into custom ROM's.

Obviously there are newer phones right now! But really desire has been a really nice smartphone so, if you don't care for the latest games you'll have a perfect phone!
IF you can live with 150-200MB app storage (which is the biggest problem on the Desire for me personally, as I don't like app2sd for several reasons)
... and you don't care about the reasonably small screen size (which is what I like very much on the Desire)
... and you don't care that the phone doesn't have a front Camera (for skyping and alike)
... AND you can get it really cheap, why not.
As MidnightDevil said, it's a good smartphone. Not the quickest one anymore, but I like it
The Desire is probably one of the best low budget Smartphones you can get nowadays. Last time I checked you pay around 50€ for used ones.
Like Jestor said, if the limited internal storage isn't a problem for you (app2sd is working very well with a fast SD-card), it's probably worth the money.
And it's faster than most recently low budget phones.
I'm using a One S now but my girlfriend still has a Desire. I still miss it, the New phone is nice but not everything is an improvement and I would still be happy with a Desire and the price they are selling for here is well worth it. Definitely need to root it and change h boot for more memory though.

The trackball of the desire is still great! Still worth buying in my opinion.
It depends what the price is.
I can get a desire (used) for about £90 of a HTC One X for £450.
Its a great phone for the price. I've had mine for 2 and a half years and have enjoyed using it. I've been tempted by OneX and S3 but have decided to stick with my desire for a while and buy a nexus 7 tablet instead (£159)
My desire is running ICS smoothly so I'm happy
You have to know that You have not that much space to install Apps. As another User said...round about 150MB...
But if You use a custom Rom with root and an other recovery You can partition Your SD-Card as ext3 or ext4 and u have enough space for your apps.
I have a Desire, too for 2 years now and i'm happy with it.
I'm using ICS and it runs nice.
I would buy it if You can get it cheap.
if it's cheap, buy it!
it's worth about $150 and is still a good phone
Lol i bought two for 50€…

Why is htc one s more expensive than htc one x

Hi can anyone tell me that why is the htc one s more expensive than one x as one x has a bigger screen a quadcore processor and it is also considered htc's flagship phone.
The One X is more expensive

Where do you see that the One S is more expensive?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I looked it on a website and over there the htc one s was more expensive
well that website got it wrong
the one x is holding at 520$ in my country the one s is 420$
One S also cheaper in UK
http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/mobiles/mobile-phones/HTC-ONE-X/PPAY (£419)
http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/mo.../PPAY?src=phoneFinderReviews#modelDetailsTabs (£349)
The only way I can think of that happening is if they were look at on contract prices for the T-Mobile One S and the AT&T One X(L).
Stores here in Singapore have the One S priced $100 more than the One X. I didn't understand it either.

Yup thats what I am talking about.
That is possible.

same here in Saudi Arabia
It's cost for more battery backup....lol
It would be high because its still not released in that country and one x has releases so they have to import one s from u.k or so hence higher price..
Same here in India

Sure its the One X and not One XL ?
I got my HOX free on a 24 month contract (£21.50 a month!). At the time, the HOS was £79. They're both free on that contract now, but the HOS as 200 minutes instead of the 100 the HOX has.
Does the HOX have more reported issues with it? Maybe that hasn't helped sales?
Yup.

It's because in Singapore One S is bundled with Beats earphone/headphone (don't remember which one/type), one X did not have beats bundle.
What I found amusing is in states, comparing T-mobile one S and AT&T one X, off-contract price, indeed one S is $50 more expensive, I don't get the logic...
Back then, in the end I'm forced to get One S, cause AT&T would not sold One X to tourists "you must be AT&T customer... bla bla bla..." T-mobile happily sell me prepaid one S.
A couple of months ago I could have understood it because the One S was superior to the One X. I found that myself when going from a One S to a One X, but now with the latest base it is the other way round.
One S is cheaper than One X in Czech Republic too..

If the HTC One S is selling well in a certain country, The carriers will take advantage of this.
In the US some carriers have dropped the price of the HTC One X by $100 according to a news article.

Agree 100%. Window phones are great. but don't have as many customizations or applications. Coming from an android you might get bored.

exactly. if u like modifications then choose dhd. if u want to try something new then buy hd7. imo better will be dhd because you can modify this phone in almost every way which fit to you and also you have much more available apps than windows has

UPDATE:dhd is sold out in this store i will look up more
Thanks for help
And i forgot to ask you about galaxy nexus s is it worth buying?

Well, the Nexus S still has a pretty good dev community.
Even though Google dropped it from the official 4.2 update list, there's already custom ROMs for it.
Overall, I'd recommend this over the DHD or HD7
im on the sensation XE and i am pretty happy. full s-off, decent rom development. free sim unlock and fully running jellybean.:laugh:
I think u shouldn't buy something from HTC (One V same hardware as DHD and its actually 3 years old) and because of the miserable build quality of htc phones im really pissed off from my Htc one X
Why the Nexus S not the GNex? in germany the galaxy Nexus cost just 20 bucks more i think u should buy this phone it's really great!
I personally switch to the Nexus 4
Same I would go for the Nexus 4. In the UK the Nexus 4 is £279 for the 16 gb. For the specs that is a big deal!
Thank you guys all of yo,as a matter of fact i got the best offer for nokia lumia 710 which is WP phone so i will be selling my wildfire for sure and buying lumia
Thanks again
Cheers
One thing you should keep on mind that wp7 devices will not be updated to wp8 whereas android phones van be updated to latest version even if the manufacturer stops updating so if you want to buy windows phone then buy only wp8 else you will be stuck forever.

New HTC ONE Leaked !

If you plan to buy an HTC ONE wait for this one !!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvui-zg7gPs
It was leaked just before the event !
HTC really need to work on the back
They should send designer in Apple EQ
It was officially relesed half an hour ago LOL.
What's wrong with the back...NOTHING!
NEXUS 4=Richard mille watch
The spec is it has a 4.7 inch screen. Does that make it easier to port sense 5 to the One X?

Why would you talk here about the One?...

Help TeamAndirc maybe to S-OFF HTC One X..

We're looking for reasonably priced (read that as really cheap) HTC Tegra devices, as well as HTC One V and HTC One S (s3 only)
This is a tweet from justin case teamandirc maybe there are people out there with a spare HTC one x tegra...
These guys recently S-OFF HTC one xl (qualcomm) device so... You can contact them via Twitter @TeamAndIRC

Would be nice to see Tegra 3 HoX S-off-ed but it's much harder then qualcomm devices , many have tried , many have failed , tho i wish to those guys best of luck for getting it done, They might wanna check this thread , there are pro ppl discussing about S-oFF for tegra 3 hox. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2057105
That is all well known lol, hence them looking to get One X devices because they know they can't S-off it in a similar manner like Qcomm Good luck to them!
What do you consider reasonably priced? In GBP please

A reasonably priced s-off HOX would MAYBE help. We even had a dev with an s-off'd HOX but obviously it didn't really helped him=us.
Someone offered me his s-off'd One X....for almost 800 quid...

That's too much if you ask me, tops 350E for used S-OFF hox, not like he can change the real weather with it so it asks for 400E :cyclops:
They don't really need an s-offed HOX to work on the exploit. Maybe if we could gather people and donate 1-2 euros each, I imagine he would be able to purchase used HOX relatively soon?

We had devs working on s-off'd HOX' but it didn't really helped.
