Will never buy Iphone because it locked im just wondering no need to get angry? Its. Not your mother im talking about its just a phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JJEgan:
Based upon some pf your past posts below .

I would guess that the problem is .

One your phone has a defect

or Two somehow you have defected it

or Three you have a defect .

jje

past posts include .>>>>>>>>>>>

Beta 1.3 is awsome no problems very smooth

I'm afraid that my phone will so hot that it takes fire

Can I stop background from moving when scrolling apps?

Is it just my phone that sharpness gets very bad on? On market and on game its so bad sharpness? Even stock is better

Also the apps and pictures on Internet is very pixladed

i had first juwes gingerbread rom, then i flashed jpy and miui? is that wrong ? where can i find Ezbase rom

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mosd:
Haha no its not? You think I'm the only one experienced a hot phone? You should check cm7 thread? Anyway I have friends with desire hd, Htc desire, nexus phones and i still feel Iphone is smoother? Is. Hardware acceleration activated? Look at xoom it lags when scrolling thru screens Ipad not why is that? I'm just wondering? And if sharpness is good on galaxy s why put sharpness fix on?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] FRLinux:
Easy fix. Sell your current phone, buy a wp7 one instead, switch forums then live happily ever after :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bynar010:
You talking about Miui and CM7 and complaining about bugs. When it says all over the threads for both those roms that they have known issues. You got nothing better to do?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] suua:
Non of thes OS'es is smooth as WINDOWS PHONE 7, not Android, Not IOS.

I have used HTC phones, Samsung, Motorola, difrent android phones, the smoothnes is nothing compering to WP7.

I like Android but to be honest, my next phone will definitiv be a WINDOWS PHONE 7, and the UI is, uuuuuuuuuuuuhu, so damn SEXY

What the **** is up with you guys and getting angry? Are we talking about your country or mother or something? We're taking about a system? And google don't give a **** about you? They just want your money so shop defending them like it was your family everyone knows ios and wp7 is smoother im just asking why is that? If you can't answer without getting angry don't answer?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ste1164:
Android is coded with java which isn't the best thing to make an OS with as its bloated. Also companies like microsoft and apple can properly code the hardware with the OS. Its easy for apple as they dont make many phones. It is also easy for Microsoft as they ask for minimum requirements in terms of processor. Its harder for android as there are so many phones with different speed and types of processors.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ruskprick:
And MS and Apple dont?:eek:

But in general i do agree that Android lags abit more,dont feel as smooth as WP7/iOS4.But to be honest,thats not why you buy an smartphone is it?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] markdj57:
I'd agree and ask the question too.

I do have alot of apps and generally the phone isn't too bad with smoothness but if, e.g. newsrob is synchronising, things can get very slow and non-responsive and I'm using jvk.

Live wallpapers with multiple widgets can make scrolling jerky and sometimes with lag of seconds.

Here are all my apps...

http://www.appbrain.com/user/markdj/apps-on-the-samsung-galaxy-s

Sync/ background tasks are...

Tweekdeck - 2hrs

Gmail/contacts

Earthquake alerter

Tango

G talk

Beautiful widgets/weather

newsrob - 4hrs

Meteoblue widget

Aix weather widget

Bbc news

Sky news

hullomail

Tv show favs

Running with tv off animation/flip-flop screens/lock screen.

Maybe I'm answering my own question !!

These widgets are things that ios doesn't have, as well as live wallpapers. Does ios have apps that run in the background?

Please no flaming - we all want a better android, just trying to understand how android works.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] FRLinux:
Trust me i am not even close to getting upset. I just pointed out this thread as a waste of time especially the man who started it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] drreality:
what ur saying m8 is totally true :( , android is no match to wp7 nor to ios in smoothness!!

having said that, its totally justifiable, android experience is the closest it can be with pc. u can do almost anything on ur device, like in windows for pc (on a tiny 1 gh processor with limited ram) ---------> the price is the smoothness.

will i go for another os,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, never, cause i want my phone to do everything
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shayp:
i know what are you talking about. this is all that i miss in my galaxy s - the smoothness. i have also jvk, with sweet honey 3.0 over jvk and it just not as smooth as iOS or some rom i saw on htc desire. don't think i don't like my phone. it's great and i love working with it. but what i miss is the smoothness.

CM7 and MIUI are not official now and have known bugs and not for my daily use.

so.. maybe we need to wait more.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Fremen567:
Anywho....to answer the dudes question.... Both iOS and Metro UI are hardware accelerated. There you go.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rlorange:
Ha ha funny read!

Simple answer: hardware acceleration.

Another point was made earlier. Widgets, sychronisation and having apps doing things in the background will OF COURSE make android lag because this is TRUE MULTITASKING. IOS and wp7 can only dream of this. The only multi-tasking they do is play music.

**Simply Honey 3.0, Voodoo GB hack, JVE modem**
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xchasa:
Agree that some things are smoother for ios but overall experience is waaaaay better on galaxy s. My mate with iPhone 4 can not get over how great my screen looks. Both just on home screen and with pics/videos.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jimmy-bish:
I dunno, I find Gingerbread pretty smooth. I went from CM7 to JVK and I'm running SPB 3D Shell and also have the window animations hack enabled. It's smooth as silk.

Definitely a major improvement over Froyo and Eclair. I've got an iPhone 4 on my desk at work and I wouldn't say it's any smoother than my Galaxy S. They'd be on par, except the SGS is running the full 3D interface and widgets all over the screens. Based on that, I'd say the eye candy is much better than iOS.

I still haven't seen a WP7 handset in person, so I can't comment on that. From the videos and screenshots I've seen, I don't think I'd be a huge fan of those tiles anyway. That's just me.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mosd:
Thanks everyone :) when are google going to get hardware acceleration?

And what's the difference ios multitasking and android multitasking?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seltaeb:
I think full 2D hardware acceleration was supposed to be included in 3.0+ (Honeycomb). If the Xoom is lagging even after that, that's rather sad. Also, Honeycomb is meant primarily for tablets so I don't know if Google is going to fork or backport the changes to the phone OS line -- they probably will.

It doesn't bother me much (at all, in fact) - but at the moment this certainly is one area where Android is lagging behind iOS.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seltaeb:
Here's a simple article on this: http://www.pcworld.com/article/199891/geek_101_android_and_ios_multitasking_compared.html

Its ok i liked the very clear screen for one and if its gets a service pack or mark 2 version it will be very good . But nowhere near as good as the SGS 2 .

I was able to compare HTC Win 7 IOS4 and SGS on Sunday no real difference i would have only picked one over the other on cost .

Also, Honeycomb is meant primarily for tablets so I don't know if Google is going to fork or backport the changes to the phone OS line -- they probably will.

Confusing messages on that one its either yes to Honeycomb or a version of Honeycomb and Ice cream for mobiles .

MY SGS is a tool and it does what i want and that's all that's required .

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mosd:
So what's coming after gingerbread for mobiles? Is it ice cream?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mosd:
And why the **** isn't samsung realising the sources? So cm7 can finish?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ruskprick:
Dont think your attitude does you any good on XDA.Try 4chan
[Galaxy S I9000 General] .Slane.:
When people who complaining for this we'll able to make a Google search and see that:

_ iOS is for ONE company with slow product launch (four in four years), with very limited multitasking and GUI Hardware acceleration (not very hard with a closed ecosystem)

_ WP7 have very strict Hardware recommendation to achieve GUI acceleration and even WP7 is smooth, it's not very eye candy (but nice to use).

_ Android have REAL multitasking, and no Hardware acceleration for GUI in 2.2.x. It work on plenty of graphics chip and most of these have not really good drivers. It's not, for some companies, profitable to spend time to have good driver, because next graphics generation will have much more raw power.

Try to find by yourself before launch here this kind of topic.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seltaeb:
Agreed. I wanted to give OP benefit of doubt and hence replied earlier, but am now convinced that he / she / it is simply trolling.

/let's stop feeding the troll...

[Galaxy S I9000 General] rschenck:
Yeah, I marked this troll right off. He walks into a forum devoted to modding product a, and posts pretending to ask when product a will stop being inferior to products b and c. Classic stealth troll behavior.

Oddly, I have seen a marked increase the last few days in "Bro, why isn't Android as awesome as iOS/WP7/Symbian/Psion?" lately. Spring break, and the trolls have no classes, I suppose.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Jumba:
I blame Engadget and Gizmodo. Ever since they started posting links to XDA this place has seen a marked increase in pre-teen demanding fanbois and foul language.

Sad really.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] JJEgan:
Totally agree forum is getting like a Nokia users forum day by day .

Gingerbread must have that what it broke my phone you mean i am really supposed to read and understand stuff first .

About time this forum had minimum qualifications for entrants twelve years old should be the minimum level .That lets the OP out the door .

[Galaxy S I9000 General] t1mman:
And again, this is a devlopper forum, not 4Chan or some useless "killing time" site... please keep your language clean and don't start thread that has nothing but complaints in them...

I don't know if it's the popularity of the SGS or Engadget dropping "bombs" on XDA, but the numbers of posts like this one, wich is clearly useless trolling or mindless complaining is realy up in here...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Jumba:
And the response to my post regarding foul language is... more foul language. I rest my case.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ilbulgaro89:
wp7 has no multitasking...iOS uses GPU for the User Interface, so if the CPU is used the smoothness is not affected...

Now I'm using also a desire S and it's really smooth...10000 times better than my SGS (with 2.2.1, with 2.3.3, with lagfix, without lagfix...)
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
just found out (by trying) you can swap your battery super quick without rebooting.

plug into usb

you have 3 seconds(PC) or 25 seconds(WALL) to switch batteries before it dies anyway.

It cant run off usb only.

BBBAAAAMMMMMM!!!!!!!
[Captivate General] betadan:
I thought you could keep the phone going with out battery as long as you are plugged into a powered USB port.
[Captivate General] melvinaury:
Me too.
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
i tried USB with no battery once and the phone shut off after a few seconds. 3-5 seconds.

thinking and trying are 2 different things though.
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
Meh, I do this on the charger all the time.:D
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
it was news to me.. thought i would share.
[Captivate General] jde984:
I've definitely run on usb without a battery a lot longer than 3-5 seconds...
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
really? cus i just tried it again, ESPECIALLY for you!

i didnt even get to 3.... plugged into computer

thanks for your input
[Captivate General] tytdfn:
AHHH this is amazing! Thanks for sharing
[Captivate General] Time_Zone:
Thanks for the Info!

What about a wall outlet? It's my impression that the PC doesn't provide as much juice.
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
one word...

SERIOUSLY??? you are going to make me go upstairs to get my charger to try for you?

ok fine! Wall charger, OEM samsung, got to a count of 22 then pushed the app button.

PHONE SHUT OFF.

lasted longer than 3 seconds, but as stated in first post and now further confirmed by me and my EXCLUSIVE testing equipment (that noone in the world has or knows how to build)..... it cant be run off USB power.

lol
[Captivate General] Vivified:
22 seconds does seem a lot better than 3 though! Gives me more time to scramble and put it in. Thanks for this buddy!
[Captivate General] studacris:
Just tested it, yup as soon as touch the app drawer it dies, funny thing though I unplugged it after it shut off and the back lights are still lit up?
[Captivate General] geokilla:
I wonder how screwed up the battery calibration would be....
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
well as soon as the new battery goes in the meter goes to 100%... but still you wont hear me complain about my batt stats while doing this. dunno how much the batt stats really matter except for the meter. full is full, dead is dead. (works with power stops when not enough)

Same here.. still showing via semc app development 2!!

Confused.......
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] ddonq1412:
im going to restore my phone back to 2.1 and take a copy of the build.prop , then i will install J's 2.3 and see his build.prop as i know all 3 of these roms have the facebook stamp as something else. and ill try and take a trend and take it from there.

I have followed those steps. And yet still can't get it to work. I'm using the flash tool to edit the build.prop and to remove timescape. Used the timescape listed for wolfbreaks rom. Still no joy.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] ddonq1412:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lpb99:
Starting today my nexus one (not rooted, stock vodafone ROM, Android 2.2.1) doesn't start anymore :mad: After I restarted my phone, because the sound came from the speaker while a headset was plugged, the 'X-animation' plays 4 times and than sticks for 3 seconds, and starts over again repeatably. Of course I have removed the battery, and tried starting it without the SD-card and SIM, but without success. Also I tried to boot in safe mode, but with no success too.

Can I do something about this, or do I have to do a factory reset (clear storage?) and lose lots of data? :(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Know-Fear:
Sounds like you are in dire need of a wipe. Jumbled up bits of data and code from the time the phone was new until now are most likely the culprit for the bootloop. I would say now would be a good time to root. :)

At least then you can make backups and not have to lose everything.
[EVO 4G Accessories] monkeychef:
Hi everyone!

So I purchased this cheap $9 kit on Ebay in hopes that I wouldn't have to spend to much on accessories. It comes with a car charger, a retractable usb cable, a wall charger, a screen protector, and an argile pattern tpu case. Im Just gonna go through each item very quickly and then leave a link at the bottom of the post.

Car Charger:

Pretty basic, one end goes in the car, the other in the phone. It has a coiled cord, so it won't tangle, and it is pretty light. I feel like I could step on it (accidently) a few times and it won't break.

Wall Charger:

Same as above, without coiled cord, and it doesn't plug into a car.

USB Cable:

I actually like this cable a lot. The cable is wrapped around a sort of wheel, and you pull on both sides (one end is usb, the other is micro usb) and the cable extends. Pull on it again, and the cable length will shorten. If you don't understand what I am saying, sorry. Check the pictures in the link.

Screen Protector:

I was actually fairly surprised by this protector. The installation process requires no water, and it only took about 2 minutes. It doesn't feel rubbery, and it does not scratch easily (took the house key to it). My only issue is getting the last few air bubbles out on the side, but I'm sure they will disappear in a few days.

TPU Case:

Very thin case that has a cool looking design to it. It goes on the phone easily, completely conforms to it, and leaves all the ports open. Also, the buttons are easy to hit. It raises the back of the phone just enough to make it so that it isn't resting on the camera, and when you rest it on the screen side, it has a lip that keeps the screen from hitting the surface you are resting it on. Does not add any noticeable bulk or weight to the device.

I am actually really happy with this purchase. I thought that since it was cheap, all the parts were going to be complete crap. I was completely wrong, and I would say that everyone should definitely get this kit (or a similar one because he sells a few different ones).

I have that exact case in smoke and clear...it's fvkkin legit bro. My daughter knocked my phone off my work bench in the garage and sent it skidding across the concrete on its face!

Zero damage again! lol Hell of a buy, I got a package deal like the above too.
[EVO 4G Accessories] monkeychef:
After a few weeks I got a few experiences of my own. The day before I got the case I dropped the phone I got a small scratch. Since then I have dropped it from about three feet numerous times, and accidents threw it against a wall ( was in my pants pocket) and no damage at all. We got a steal!

I know some people have been turned off from the lack of updates from Samsung/Verizon or whatever. (I blame Bing)

Unlike other people, after owning the Fascinate.. I actually would love to buy another Samsung phone.

I can't give up the SAMOLED screen. I actually like the over-saturated colors. They give it a POP in comparison to other screens.

What's next.... Samsung Droid Charge... meh.... Not sure why this has no appeal to me? Anyone else feel the same?
