What's a good smart phone to get that's NOT the iphone?

I got an iphone 4s as an upgrade and I'm NOT happy. I got it about a year and a half ago and I can upgrade soon in a few months. I don't know a lot about smart phones.

I want something reliable, doesn't freeze up as much and isn't a delicate, fragile device that shatters after a two foot drop.

I want something that allows me to have music with a set of practical apps, not so much games. Any suggestions? My friend won a galaxy III in a contest and is selling it for 100 dollars.
I also thought of upgrading to the Droid razr in a few months(6).

Do I have to get a data plan with an unlocked iPhone?

So I'm with AT&T right now but I didn't get an iPhone and have some stupid old free phone. I've been investing in getting an unlocked iPhone through Amazon and I was just wondering that if I do get the unlocked iPhone, do I have to get a data plan. Does AT&T need to know that I have an iPhone? I plan on using the Wi-Fi from my home as well as school to get internet so I really don't need to get Wi-Fi from them. Since I will get Wi-Fi from home and school, does that mean iMessage will still work via the Wi-Fi and not the data plan? It's just an extra burden on me if I need to get a data plan because I know my dad won't agree to it. Also, if I'm forced to get a data plan, what does this mean I have to pay for and what will be extra that I need to pay for? About how much more will I need to pay on my bill (our plan has my mom dad and I and my dad pays about 100 dollars each month.about how much higher would the bill go if i need to get a data plan)? So in conclusion, even though I will be using Wi-Fi from my home and school, and if I get an unlocked iPhone and still have AT&T, do I need to get a data plan? If I do, how can I avoid it if I can?

Two different Default Gateways on same Network?

Can anyone assist me on how to make two different gateways interact on the same network?

ISP is Frontier (they suck I know). One is 192.168.254.254 default modem/router from Frontier, other is a netgear with 192.168.1.1.

From what I understand and my knowledge on the subject, I need to turn off DHCP on my 192.168.1.1 and add a static route on 192.168.254.254 for my 192.168.1.1 router.

Is this correct?

My goal is to subnet my home network on a 255.255.255.128 /25
Having servers and computer on on network & xbox, iphone, etc. On another.

My iPhone isn't connecting with my laptop?

I have an iPhone 4s and an iPad and a Toshiba laptop. Whenever I plug my iPad into my laptop using a USB cable my iPad connects to my laptop/iTunes and my iPad starts charging.

Is there a setting on my phone I need to change? Any help appreciated.

Anywhere To Watch Family Guy Free?

I'm 14 and yet my mum has banned me from watching family guy even though all my friends and my 8 year old cousin watches it.
