Do you think the company and the brand just vanished, or are they possibly preparing for something new?
EDIT: Welp, false alarm.

Any official statement available?
https://www.facebook.com/JiayuDE/ -> News @ 16. Juni
Jiayu CN bankrupt - > DE + ES Shops buy the name rights -> Jiayu EU
Jiayu DE is a "3 mann business" so the old Jiayu is dead! Jiayu EU is only a reseller of Vernee and Shift.
More like an run-of-the-mine OEM model with a Jiayu Sticker on it will not come in future.
thanks for the info!

Here’s one from Craigslist. Apparently, they are listing on different Craigslist’s sites in the country with the same add. They are located in Provo, Utah with a store location in case anyone wants to verify they actually have some.

350USD, yeah right, and only a stock photo (rendering) as picture..
We buy directly from manufacturers for import to retailers, there are limited quantities available, but they are on the world market
Thank you for asking
Ive also asked htc they told me the same its no fake its an touch pro 2 and some of them are also sold yet
Woah, located in Provo, Utah and selling the Touch Pro 2 for $350? I'm about 40 minutes north of Provo, so maybe I'll check it out...
Anyone got a phone number for them? Or what is the name of the store location?

No-one said it's a fake, the craigslist "photo" is a stockphoto (a rendering).
HTC is not SELLING any of these devices yet.
Only ones released are the pre-production models, they are eg. for operators for testing.
NONE are yet for sale.
Fake. The phone hasn't been released
As I type this I am obtaining a new ROM from my source for the Rhodium.
RUU_Rhodium_TMOUS_1.04.531.0_Radio_Rhodium_3.43.25.13_Signed_Test.exe
This ROM was released to me today. There's no way that there are consumer grade devices for sale out there. I promise you, if the seller is true and has the device, the Rhodium had two stages in its development. One included hardware and software that were "non-turbo", later on the hardware was enabled with "turbo" but had to be disabled with a specialized cab. If that was not completed the firmware would stall and there would be an error stating that the hw/sw versions do not match. this was a real pain in the ass to get around that. So finally, everything is a running beta stage as of today.
Buyer beware.

its funny, i'm comparing my device with the ebay one. they look nothing alike. The back isn't even close, the keyboard looks cheap, the chrome on the edges doesn't exist, the screen size is wrong. I hate it when people try to prey on device junkies... don't they know that's like teasing a kid with candy.
I thought of china clone, probably doesn't even run winmo..
Hello there. Is it worth to buy this phone now? How long may it be supported by community devs? Are there any alternatives for ~250$ (in regards of battery and hardware)? I am looking for a smartphone with battery larger than 3000mAh or with AMOLED screen (or both of these options). It would be nice bonus if it was smaller than 15cm in height.

This phone is a beast still today because of active development by the developers. If you want a pbone with both amoled and battery above 3000 mah in 250$ range than the only option is Samsung J8. So my suggestion to you is go for the xiaomi redmi note 5 Pro or wait for the MiA2.
Actually, in my country Lenovo P2 is avaible for ~200$. Is it a good deal?

i won't say it is a good deal in this price ..but will be a great deal if you get it under $150 . you can get a better device in 250 nowadays with a little less of a battery strength but it will be fine for a days use .
best phone for its specs in its price range imo,also a lot of software developments going on for it also makes it a fine choice...yes its still worths it.
I would definitely buy it again. My only concern would be the state of the battery since these phones have being on shelves for quite a while now. I don't know if that would affect battery life and I would like to know it, though (If anyone does).
Great deal !

Thanks for the reply. I also made some research and it's true that two years is not a lot for a well stored Li-Ion battery.

I confirm. This phone factory new can be bought in Poland from 220$ up.
And I my opinion it is still great battery, hassle free phone.
From some time I am looking for something new for exchange but..... I am still happy to live without power socket for few days. No new phone comes even close to P2 battery endurance ( I do not count monsters like Ulefone Power with ridiculous MTK processors )

I wish I could help you but probably none of local internet shops makes it abroad.
First, we have a site ceneo.pl which seeks for best offers for given product. You can use that to look at polish shops. Important note: Allegro is an auction site and some offers there may be a scam.
But you may try to contact other site's service and ask if transaction from France is possible. Google translate should be enough to find contact info on these.

So, this website - https://www.electronicsforce.com/index.php?main_page=index - has a really good deal on the Mate 20 X and I was going to purchase from them. Just wondered if anyone knew anything about the site before I did?

There's nothing that can beat Aliexpress price. I got my 2 Units AL-00 directly from Official Huawei Store on Aliexpress back in January 2019. Both of them came Factory Sealed. Beat this !
Sealed Phone nowdays are very rare, unless you request this. Most of the 3rd party sellers Open the BOX to ensure ,,everything is working ".
That's the best joke to sell a used phone, refurbished unit or just a returned customer unit. Be aware of Open Box phone...
Hey folks. I just recently switched from oneplus to samsung. Haven't used a samsung device since the galaxy s5 with the bootloader unlock exploit.
Used LG for a while, then tried out the oneplus 8pro which is now at the repair center. I picked up what was advertised as an open box galaxy s20 + 5g (986u1) device.
After I powered it on, and set it up, I went to activate developer options and found that they were already on. Does that sound right that dev options would already be turned on if it was a new unused device?
Thanks.
Turn them off for your answer...
Yeah, I thought it sounded like a silly question.... Deserves a silly answer.

Appreciate that. I found it interesting, and bit concerning that a brand new device would have developer settings activated. I purchased from an ebay seller. Based on their high approval scores, I felt pretty safe. I'll probably question them about it. Thankfully, everything on the phone seems to be working well. Peace.

From what you've shared it sounds like you're in the clear. "Open Box" offerings always give me pause since sellers rarely post why the item was unsealed. At times sellers declare they only opened the item for testing but unless the offer is at a considerable discount below a comparable new, sealed unit and listed by a reputable seller with a fair return policy I'd avoid it.
I recently purchased a Dell XPS laptop on ebay from a dealer specializing in refurbished units. The listing reflected the item as "new". Before confirming the order I reached out and asked is the laptop factually new, has it ever been used? The seller replied "It's new to us"? WTF does that mean? lol!

Wow!
All the motherboards on Aliexpress are fake - run @steadfasterX's SALT and it shows they've all been modified in some way, with crazy ARBs of 20 and even 40!
Where (or which seller) would you guys recommend getting legit motherboards, and not frankenboards?
The phone was released in 2015, I don't think LG still makes motherboards for this phone.

I haven't checked recently but there is/ was an Israel- based seller on ebay selling H815 boards. I bought two a couple years back, about $50 apiece, the default language is Hebrew but of course a different one can be selected during setup... Still amusing that the phone dialer shows Hebrew numbering. AFAIK they are real, never had any problems.

Hi guys, I seem to have a franken h815 too. I wanted to find out the actual model by checking the motherboard.
All that I see is a little qr code with one number underneath: RS1017 (or BS1017) and one number on the side: 066C15. I could not find out which model corresponds to that, could you help me?
Edit: Found it out already, the model is written on the backside of the motherboard
