[Q] Suggestions for used WiFi-only smartphone... topic
Hi there,
A friend of mine is low on funds and I'm suggesting he find a used android smartphone that he can make and receive calls in the US via WiFi (with no wireless carrier service).
What's a good choice that will definitely have an unlocked or unlockable bootloader? I would like to set him up with something that runs CM12 nicely - he'll be using Google Hangouts for phone calls and VOIP video conferences, maybe Skype for video calls now & then too. I don't care which carrier since it won't be activated.
My own experience with Verizon has me gun-shy about anything that's gotten a firmware update that firmly locks down the bootloader.
Thanks,
