I use Firefox. I use them all and FF is the best. It does more that the others and is more convenient. I never have any crashes or bugs either. Chrome is suppose to be good, and it may well be perfectly fine for most. But I do have browsing issues with it and it doesn't provide me the convenience I get with FF.

Couldn't live without Chrome to Phone now that i'm used to having the facility, which is another reason to stick with it. I remember when I.E was the only game in town and the only time it was updated was with the next Windows release.

Google chrome ftw.
[Off-topic] Maxamillion:
So,I installed google chrome over ubuntu's default firefox, and I was impressed with google chrome's speed. Then, I did the same thing on windows 7, and it was fast at the beginning and then it started lagging a lot so now I'm skeptical ab.out google chrome on windows 7. I feel safer with firefox, I might just upgrade to firefox 8 nightly, which I heard is 25-35% percent faster than the current firefox 5, and matches or might even surpass the speed of google chrome 14 dev. You guys should look that up if u think I'm lying. There's even a youtube video on it and firefox 8 nightly has practically instant loading (and its barely in nightly builds) , a 64bit version of the browser(which has never been done before and let's u take advantage of your amd64), so I'm really looking forward to it. So I'm reconsidering firefox on windows. In ubuntu chrome is doing great so that's good.

[Off-topic] Shinydude100:
Listen and Learn Tech Nooblets, and if you aren't one, then I presume you take no offense and agree to my words of wisdom.

On Windows:

Safari: Eye Candy, but not effiient enough in code and plugins to make it your primary browsing experience.

Opera/Mini: Nice for your average user who knows Zilch about browsing the web who'd like to just get away from the Internet Explorer.

Internet Explorer 6/7/8/9 :I will give credit to the devs in saying 9 is quite different from the rest, being the first to be open-source. (Bravo! Microsoft.) But it still lags behind in coding. I could prove its inefficiency in 1 tiny example of animated Imagery. And if that's not enough, BHO's are a sweet way to get infected, YES, including the geeks that have anti-viruses.

Mozilla Firefox: Ah, where to begin, its been quite a roller-coaster for the Browser, starting with a slow start, great advances in different web browsng capabilites, but then it took wrong turns here and there in their 3.0 versions, that was ways back, and even then it was great. It's now around 5.1 and 5.2 and its perhaps the BEST in coding efficiency, display of images, and even browser gaming.

Google Chrome: I've used it, benchmarked it with my own tools, and I have noted that it is the cream of the crop when it comes to browsing for text, checking your mail, small things like that. The amount of tabs you can stress test it with is insane with an outdated computer.. its best for the light/casual user, not reccommended for a PC Gamer, or an Online Browser Gamer, as its plugins aren't up to par with some of the Browser Veteans, still, its heading in the right direction despite its late start, its quite a good start.

You're talking network as in internet access or general receiption?

Sound to me as general receiption, APNs have nothing to do with that.

What GSM band is your provider using?

SGS2 is quadband IIRC, so GSM 900, 1800 and 1900 and some else should work, but you never know (might also be something with the modem SW, try finding a ROM for your provider to try)....

After trying out WP7 for a month, I'm ready to get a proper Android phone (only used NITDroid and the Nook so far)

My problem is I'm rather used to the "smoothness" of WP7. Will something like the Galaxy S2 have the performance I want? What other phones should I look at? Rooting would be nice, tethering would be a dealmaker/breaker and it must support GSM 850 (Telstra Australia)

Any ideas? I do particularly like Samsung, but I'm not sure if they're anti-CyanogenMod.
[General Questions and Answers] MartyLK:
If you want the smoothness of WP7...or only something close actually...go with an HTC Sense phone. Sense is about as smooth as you get with Android.
[General Questions and Answers] isinisterx:
I've never tried a WP7 phone, but my nexus OC'd by 100 mhz is damn smooth.

I couldn't imagine anything smoother :P although its not DC, so sometimes it gets choppy when doing multitasking
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
While android is very slowly improving on that front you won't find an android phone that can compare to wp7 in terms of smoothness, the galaxy s 2 is the closest you'll get and after testing one out just yesterday its still no wp7 in that regard.
[General Questions and Answers] k_nivesout:
Samsung is far from anti-cyanogenmod, in fact they sent brand new gs2s to CM7 devs. I'd try as many phones out as you can and see what works best for you, but from what I've seen so far, the gs2 is the phone to beat.

I have read many of the threads on this site as wel as others. It seemed that z4root would work and be the simplest way. But now I hope i didn't screw up my phone. Heres what I did:

enabled USB Debugging

downloaded z4root.apk from 4shared onto my SD card

downloaded astro file mgr from the market

started z4root, selected permanent root

it said running exploit in order to obtain root access

then installing shell

then it crashed

i tried again but the z4root app wouldnt open

I uninstalled z4root app, the reinstalled it

Selected temporary root this time

it says running exploit in order to obtain root access but its been like that for about 40 mins.

The circle in the center just keeps spinning.

Should I let it continue? Close it out? Pull the battery?
