What are some good android phones?

Q. I am planning to get an android phone for my birthday, and I was wondering what are some good phones? I know the latest Android operating system is the Jelly Bean 4.2, so what are some phones that run on this system, or could be upgraded to this system?
I'm not interested in the Samsung Galaxy S3, but I was interested in the HTC One X+ and the HTC Windows 8 phone, and the Google Nexus 4.
Also, I was reading an article that was talking about phones that may be released later in 2013, like the Samsung Galaxy S4, Nokia Lumia 9xx, and HTC EVO 4G LTE 2.
So what would be the best choice at the moment? Buying a phone right now, or waiting? And which phone should I buy?

A. It's always better to wait but if you still want to buy a phone then Nokia Lumia 920 is best & HTC One X comes after it. Galaxy S3 is also good but you have already mentioned that you don't want it. And ofcourse Nexus 4 is also a great device. You can choose from these. Only wait for Galaxy S4 otherwise buy any of these phones.


Help! with SD card in my Android phone please!?
Q. When I first got my Android phone, I of course got the microSD card so I can take pictures. It worked fine for the first few days. Now, it is saying there is no SD card (when there is) and won't let me take any new pictures. And when I try to tap "mount SD card" it says it's a blank card. But I have already taken lots of pictures on it. I don't know if the problem is in the phone or the card itself, But I'm afraid I have lost all the pictures I took?? :(
???ADVICE PLEASE???
Oh, and we live in Europe, so we don't have any sort of contract with anyone.
My phone is a GT-S5830i Gingerbread.

A. Well, to be obvious, there can be three things wrong:

1. The hardware of your phone (The phone itself can't read cards),
-or-
2. The software of your phone (Due to an update it's 'driver' that helps it read the card broke so you can't read the card anymore)
-or-
3. The SD Card itself (When electricity flows through electrical components, they break slowly. Maybe it was it's time. It's rare, but normal).


Before you can fix the issue, you'll have to 'troubleshoot' the problem and see what it was.

1. You'll need to update your phone or roll it back (if you know how) to see if it's the software of your phone.

2. If this still hasn't fixed your problem, if you have another SD Card around try plugging it in. Ask a friend or a colleague if you can borrow theirs (or buy a new one) if you really wish to.

3. If you can't read other people's SD Cards - your phone has gone bad.

4. But if you can read other people's SD Cards - your SD card is broken.


Alternatively:

1. You can try getting a SD Card adapter for your PC (make sure it supports the tiny one you use) - they're cheap and you will find yourself using it often.

2.You can try reading your SD Card from the SD Card adapter - if you can read the SD Card on your PC but not on your phone, your phone is likely the troublemaker.

3. If you can't read the SD Card, it's broken.


If you have identified your problem:

1. If your SD Card is broken, get a replacement. You can find a technician offer services of retrieving data from broken memory (such as a SD Card) and they should be able to recover some of the things you have on it.

2. If your Phone is broken, get a replacement. You can talk to a technician to fix it for you or replace the broken parts.

3. If updating or rolling back your system fixed the issue, you have a company to be angry at ;)


I hope this helps. There isn't really much you can do other than those steps, unless you find analytical software to check your phone and SD Cards for errors (usually it's a program you install on your computer) - but I don't have any to recommend to you and it's often quite technical and doesn't always find the problem.


PS:
I hope you have learned your lesson from this - always back up your things! Copy your SD card contents over to your computer regularly (monthly?) and then, when they are on your computer, (assuming you have a Windows PC) simply right click the files, from the drop-down menu "Send To", then "Compressed (zipped) folder".

This will store the files in a .zip file that will save space on your computer and will hold the backed up files.

Also, if you followed the backup steps, you will have 3 copies of your files. One on your Phone, second one on your PC (the files you just copied) and third - inside the zipped folder. You can erase the second one on your PC (the files you just copied) as you just copied it again into a .zip folder.

Make sure you name the .zip folder appropriately (and don't erase the .zip on the end of the name if it's there!!!) such as "My Pictures 23 May 2013" so you know what it is later on ;)
