I've yet to find "fully functional" Android as in ALL FUNCTIONS IN THE GOOGLE OS work except on Google's own phones.

AGM A8 is actually pretty good.

I took a chance and it has worked out well so far. Had to go deep into the settings to get AT&T data and MMS to work, but it is a great phone for $180.
