[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davanw:
I noticed several third party browsers allow you to set how the browser 'presents' itself to the website, giving you the ability to view the mobile site, or the full version of the site.

Can anyone tell me if this setting exists somewhere in the stock browser? I can't find it, perhaps I'm over looking it somewhere?

Samsung Galaxy S i9000m on 2.2

TIA!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doomsdaycs:

You could look for a hacked browser that allows different user agents. Should be able to find some in the developement section via search or going through pages. :)

so i bought a used phone off of someone to try and fix and it is just pissing me off to no end. The phone just keeps rebooting into a bootloop of the htc splash screen, then it does a little vibrate and goes back to it again. i tried to put the PG05IMG.zip on my sd card and restart it into the bootloader screen which i can get into, but it doesnt work. it says image not found. i also cannot figure out why my computer wont recognize it...if anyone has any solutions of wants to try and help me out, that would be great..

I already tried to flash PG05IMG.zip RUU file from microSD card but it didnt work, Tbolt keep rebooting over and over
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBarnett09:
You need to have s-off to do this.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zlebors:
how am I able to do that with a bootloop Tbolt?

I've read somewhere here on xda said I had to ebabled the "unknown resources" and "usb debuging" , which I can't do those steps because my Tbolt keep rebooting.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RBarnett09:
Good point.

Seems like there would be a way through command prompt or terminal, depending on what kind of computer you're on... but idk if you can without USB debugging enabled.

Let me see if I can bring this to the attention of someone who might be able to help you more.

Sorry I couldn't help... I hope this gets figured out.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
I had good experience with my G2x until it rebooted once a day after about a month, I then game it up for the sensation and loved it.

Until I realized I cant foking get wifi in landscape. Ive had 3 already and all have the issue. The 2 different type of screens suck, it has a screen issue, etc.

Basically im finding out that all phones have issues, it just depends on the issues your willing to deal with. ME, Id personally rather see a lil bleed and have a reboot once a day then have wifi Crap and Unreliable. In the next room it dies covering it.

DAAAAAAMN. are the G2xs good yet? Have they been in stock again? Im thinking about exchanging the sensation 3 more times online and seeing if they can give me back a new g2x, because I know that the sensations I recieve will still have this issue.

Im also wondering if those that dont just have a good router N, and I got G, so maybe thats why theres is ok and mine dies completely.

ITS TRUE, THE GRASS ISNT ALWAYS GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE. THAT AND NO DAMN ROOOOOOOOOOOOOT. I DIDNT THINK HTC WOULD DRAG THIS LONG. BUT I THINK THIS PHONE IS WIFI DEFECTED AND IS WORSE THAN ANYTHING THE G2X HAS.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
Hmm good point. Maybe ill sell my sensation, buy a g2x.

Really guys, really. The wifi issue is huge. I didnt have the death grip with data, just wifi. Others dont but I think its cause they have nice new N routers or something. But where my sensation dies just by covering, I could sit on my G2x and it would never lose signal all the way down.

THE G2x to me is starting to look like a better device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
I think im gonna trade on craigslist for one. Cause i cant take this any longer. And no one can post proof theirs does not have the issue. They keep saying you need to trust me. LOL Ive trusted my own results where the mo fo dies.....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dnguyen1988:
Yea u should def try craigslist Idk bout where you're at but in Dallas I've seen quite a few g2xs for trade and some even with cash on top lol so goodluck dude
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Selling my G2X and keeping my problem free Sensation. My G2X doesn't have a scratch on it, has never rebooted, has a decent battery (not quite as good as my Sensation) and only has minor screen bleed but in my opinion doesn't touch the color or clarity of my Sensation.

Make me a offer I can't refuse.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
trade me the g2x straight up and im good.

Or, please Jr. Post a video of your sensation with no wifi troubles in landscape? cause i just dont think its possible, but I believe you. Thats why I want your proof cause your a knowledgable dude.

in another room other then the router, like upstairs like you said?

next to the router im fine, but in the other room bammmmmn gone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c19932:
hey smashpunks,

what kind of screen issue does the sensation have?

I was trying to get a sensation as well. Do you mind telling me what kind of other issues the sensation might have?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] alodar1:
My son has a pretty funny thing going on with his...funny to me...not him.

He has a pretty cool case for the Sensation...works great, very minimal. Does not have any Death grip issues...case seems solve this.

He has WiFi Case grip issues :confused: In order to get WiFi in his bedroom, he has to remove the case.

So, go to work, put on the case, no problems. Come home from work, remove the case...no problems.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
sure. Well, some have charger issues. See my video :( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOp0_tiTHJg but Im the only one I saw with this issue.

Theres a ground issue.

and a wacky screen issue :( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3n_LMhC8Y68 thats my first phones issues that I took back. :(

id rather have a g2x I think. The sensation IMO is better, but the issues are more sever.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
lol I never had a issue with reception, just the wifi. I actually put a piece of PT in between my case and phone and it fixed it..... lol Ill post a video later on it cause I want people to see it.

lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Wow

I hit up Youtube and there are tons of Sensation issue videos. Doubt any of those are repairable via software.

G2x + CM7 = heaven. This phone is blazing fast.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] govtcheez:
What kind of screen issues are you having with the Sensation? I might be interested in trading for my G2X straight up. Mine is relatively problem free. One time I had an issue with my GPS not getting a fix but a reboot fixed the problem. I've never had a single reboot and there is minimal screen bleed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mahgninnuc93:
Welcome back

Great to have you back to the G2x side of the house. I just got into Droid after trading my iPhone4 on Craigslist for the G2x and the dude threw in 150 cash. Definately check CL.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
Have you thought about joining the dark force? If you sold the Sensation the difference between it and the SGS2 would be about $150. Pretty much unlimited everything on AT&T is about $82 (plus tax) a month. If you're stuck with an ETF than I'm guessing it would be too pricey to switch. Just something else to ponder.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mingkee:
I am glad I got a less trouble unit and keeping it. I was reluctant to get Sensation after I tested it.

It seems that HTC phones have wifi reception problem from my touch pro 2, nexus one, and to mytouch 4. They have hard time to get signal from upstairs.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] btate0121:
this thread has convinced me to pull my g2x off of clist. Kudos sir.. i shall be patient for either cynogen to get a2dp or for the fix/update from LG sometime before i die.

does anyone have an opinion on how the galaxy s stacks up to the g2x? I was giving that some SERIOUS thought.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
Galaxy s2? Or vibrant?

Yea, I want my LG back. It had no WiFi or screen issues..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] btate0121:
you know what.... mistype. NEXUS s. i think i'm sticking with Nexus devices going forward.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
It's a Sammy. nd imo Sammy has awesome hardware other than GPS..lol maybe that's what ill do. Trade for a nexus s
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
The Nexus S doesn't compare to the G2x. Single core, no external microSD slot, last years hardware.

Keep that. G2x = much better hardware wise.

There are rumors that Samsung is coming out with another Nexus phone by the years end (probably releasing end of year or early next year) that is based off the GalaxyS2.

It will probably be released with 2.4 IceCream.

The one thing I hate about Samsung making the Nexus's is that they always come out with a phone first, THEN make the nexus just like it. So at that point the Nexus isn't really worth waiting for (aside from plain jane android and direct google updates). Google shouldn't use USED hardware. The Nexus should push the developers and technology forward.

The Nexus One was amazing hardware. The Nexus S was outdated before it even came out. Hopefully they don't do the same with the next Nexus. If the Nexus S had the dual-core chip like it was supposed to... then it would have been awesome.

The next Nexus will probably be coming out about the time when the Quad Tegra's are coming out.

Samsung = fail. If they didn't have that AMOLED screen, nobody would use them.

You'd be better off with a Galaxy 4G > Nexus S
[T-Mobile LG G2x] heygrl:
Yeah riiiight because they aren't designing their own SoC's for their phones and others, the flash memory, display panels (and, they only make Super AMOLED panels for themselves at the moment, nobody else is getting those).. they definitely don't have the manufacturing prowess as hmm, HTC.... LOL

Last week Geller reported that the next-generation Nexus would be a dual-core, button-less, super-thin LTE device, featuring 1080p HD video capture and playback, 1-megapixel front-facing and 5-megapixel rear-facing cameras, and 1GB of RAM.

The next Nexus (Nexus Prime) looks to have iffy specs.

Button-less?

Crappy Cameras?

It does have Samsung's "Super AMOLED HD" glass and come with a 1.5-GHz, dual-core OMAP4460 chip from Texas Instruments.

I'm running faux 1.2.6 tweezit themed with his 0.2.7 ext4 UV kernal and am loving this phone again. I was thrilled when I got it but problems started to crop up, curbing my enthusiasm. Not to the point of running to another phone though I did think about it. Faux and CM have really worked out all of the bugs that nagged me about the phone. With my daily usage and playing GOF2 for about an hour or more my battery still has ~30% at the end of the day. I charge it overnight and that's it.

And yes, my power is over 5000. :D (DBZ/Quadrant joke)

So does this mean you've changed your mind again?? Coming back to G2x? And we can expect the I'm leaving threads over in the Sensation Forum ? :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Helixdimension:
this thread makes me lol because there are so many fickle mobile phone users that get all hyped up by other ppl's issues with the same phone and then panic.

we know all phones have some issues here and there but as far as quality build HTC in my opinion wont ever get it right. it starts with the manufacturing company's origin and Taiwan quite frankly is like the Kia and Saturn ten years ago--it will take them a bit to get it right more often. Samsung appears to have the most experience with phones and apparently lcd's too. LG also a veteran so no dust under the screen here...

do your research ppl...do not rely on lol tech ppl at mobile phone stores they know Jack crap
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Helixdimension:
to add to that it also has a lot to do with carriers on cell phone quality. sim card phones are a like college football. even the bad ones get espn coverage

how mad should I be about this pixel guys? i don't want to fly off the deep end and other than today the phone was ok.... not perfect but good.. no halo minimal screen bleeding and somewhat stable.

help me out guys!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] acesofbelkan:
People like physical buttons, but we dont even know how Icecream Sandwich will incorporate things yet. Too early to judge until we actually see the software in action.

Also, Megapixels arent everything. Theyre most likely going to use higher quality image sensors but not try to win the megapixel race. I think this was stated in an article. Judging a camera by the number of megapixels is like saying a Buggatti Veyron is the quickest car ever because it has more horsepower than a formula 1 vehicle.

Had a probably perfect g2x, off craigslist only 350, no screen bleed , no reboots battery life was horrible. Traded that for a sensation , no money just a 30 minute drive. Battery life is better , screen is nicer from straight on , from angels its like a bad mytouch 4g screen . G2x is going to be an excellent phone , I would probably pick one up in month again in $200 range after it updates to gb
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Eclipsed830:
Ive now had my g2x for almost 2 months. In the times Ive had it, its rebooted itself once. My GPS worked all but once, and the device has by far been the best phone I have ever owned. I really love my G2X. Its also the quickest phone I've played with so far and I sell cell phones.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
I'm feeling lucky to have both. It's actually a lot of fun changing phones on a whim. Never been in this position. Feeling rich LOL.

I am still problem free on my fifth (refurbed) G2X. It has a 27 March build date. Still problem free including data and reception. Kind of freaky really. I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop, but it's a full week tomorrow.

I am changing back and forth almost daily. It's very cool how all my apps stay set up.

But all in all I really like the G2X better. Always have. The Sensation has rebooted to black several times (!), the volume is very low, it's very slippery in my hands, I've not been able to set up one of my email accounts, I can't play my tegra games (not a biggie, I guess there is a converter app?), it's a bit bigger in my hands, it's still not rootable, and I'm not crazy about Sense.

I had a couple of videos in my gallery that I never noticed before. They are nvidia demo videos. I was singularly impressed how good it looked. As good as any portable video I've ever seen. The G2X screen really can perform.....

But the Sensation came cheap to me and I'm keeping it. I do think the camera and camcorder are way better on the Sensation. My G2X's have all had very dark pictures. I put the cameras side by side aimed at my bureau and it's surprising how much brighter the Sensation camera is.

I finally got a good G2X (he said hopefully) which puts me in this fun position.

Did I mention my refurb came with scratches?

I can't begin to say...

How much I am beginning to dislike the sensation. Each time I try to like it, and it gets worse. People that love it, and all I can say is, the how bout them cowboys. How can they even compare that thing to the g2x. Hands down, alcohol has to be involved.

I've had more htc phones than any other, and so don't tell me it's just a different way. I'm blessed with a good phone and now need to bury this, but um, pretender. If I never touched the g2x, and maybe this would be good. But not after. Boxing it up, and as we speak.
