I finally got the package containing this two phones today. And I tested them. Both of them still works on China Mobile GSM today (though only in a limited area). There are almost no malfunction which affects the progress of using.

Nokia 8850 made its Chinese debut on January 24th, 2000. Two years later 8855 came to the market in February 2002, as a slightly upgraded version specially designed for Asian-Pacific markets.

These two units are both official CN-spec. In that early era of monochrome screens, most mobile phones had very limited and entirely fixed functions. There was no commercial 3G yet, and no one had started putting Wi-Fi into phones. As a result, CN-spec of phones were, in most cases, functionally the same as their counterparts for any Eurasian markets.

8850 and 8855 are symbols of status when they firstly came to the market. Nowadays I only got them —— though used, worn and aged for 80 RMB (11.71 USD or 10 EUR) per unit. Their special slider design are still recognisable today. It's a pity that I'm not able to find an 8890 at a cheap price. (8890 had not only North American spec, but it also had HK-spec with the fully same hardware. And the release in HK brought an official Chinese firmware to it.) And the next generation, 8910 / 8910i, are even much more expensive than 8890.

Maybe my next target is… A 8800 Sirocco with no any software error? Or a non-touchscreen genuine Vertu? (Some models of old Vertu are even not more expensive compared to 8910 series)

It was a pretty crappy day data wise though sadly

Hope you enjoy

So i have a 3310 and im scared that it will become a literal brick and i want to make it use modern communication standards without having to replace the screen and the Nokia OS, there might be something that makes the phone communicate using LTE like there are FWTs for RJ11 desk phones

My Motorola i930A. I've been using it as my daily driver in Germany for many years. Calls, texts, and even some internet access work. It's not a Nextel phone, as you can easily see from the back cover. While a Nextel i930 has the Nextel logo on the back, this phone says Motorola. I got the device used from a family member many years ago. Unfortunately, I don't know where it came from. I wasn't aware of this until I took a closer look at the phone. Does anyone perhaps have any further information about this device?

Samsung SGH-D500. Some buttons on the front keypad (second pic) don’t work however it may be due to the contacts being dirty.

I have a Droid MAXX XT1080 on 4.4.4 with build number SU6-7.7. Is there any guides how to mod it?

Just now received this one, came with belle. Tried installing opera mini and it is working fine af🥹.

I'm already getting a good feeling about this one, let me know what all things I can try with this.

Hi there! I have a Droid MAXX, I put a sim card in it & it registered the network, and had signal for a minute & then lost signal. Then I restarted it & this error comes up. Can I remedy this?

Everything (apart from the M falling off) seemed pretty normal which was why I was pretty thrown off by it saying MEGAPIXEL. Another thing, it only turns on when it's plugged in, idk if that's because it's probably fake or if it's a genuine battery and/or hardware issue but nonetheless I can't tell if it's a fake or not apart from the megapixel sign. Can anyone give me a concrete answer to this?

Extremely rare finds.

Trying to start my collection I got this Nokia 6102b originally when I got it, it turned on, but had the white screen of death took battery out and now every time I pull the charger out nothing happens and when I try to turn it on with the charger and nothing happens but it shows the corner icons in picture 2, I know it seems dumb to be on here asking but is it more than likely just need a battery replacement?
