[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DLpnd:
Its not bricked, its stuck in the bootloop. Bricked means doesn't turn on, doesn't vibrate, doesn't respond at all. Don't throw it away, try booting into recovery, possible holding volume down while turning the phone on. If you can load into recovery you might be able to flash a recovery rom. But since I do not own that phone, I do not know.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romidico:
Hmm... I don't seem to able to boot into recovery.... I have tried turning the phone on while holding the power up/down but it doesn't seem to do the trick... is there any way to get into the system?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0gravity1:
Use a jig to get into download mode. I have use that method with 100% success.

Once you get into download mode you can use odin to get back to stuck.

Here is the jig link if you needed:

good luck.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romidico:
Oh... is there any other method other than jig?? It looks really complicated.!!!!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0gravity1:
well you might think it is complicated but that is the easiest solution besides trying key combinations to enter into download mode.

I build a jig yesterday to help one of my friend that got his phone soft bricked and I can tell you is not that hard. It's just 3 100k ohms resistors that you shape into a tear drop and then touch the two connectors on the micro usb closes to the phone jack... It can't get any simpler than that.

I now it might sound crazy but that is the easiest way I know.

good luck.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Courior:
Sorry to resurect an old thread but i had the same problem and found this thread... I fixed this with a muuuuuuuch simpler solution... While the phone is looping the animation just user SUPER1CLICK to unroot the phone... the phone will crash when this is finished and leave u with a black screen... remove battery, wait a few secs and replace and it will boot just fine :)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kevalin:
Does anyone know if there is a way to add the Music.apk (the one that shows up in the glass screen) to Fasty 2.5? I love the ROM, especially its battery life (36 hours with substantial game-playing and surfing!), but I also drive a great deal, and not having the ability to easily skip songs when I'm rumbling down the road at highway speeds can be really problematic.

I tried to simply add the apk, both through the sideloader and Titanium Backup. Though it showed in my Applications Management, it did not show up in the app drawer, and the Sideloader gave a Deodex (?) error and mumbled something about permissions.

I'm currently running Cognition, but since it is no longer supported, I'd like to make the change to Fasty. This inability to use an audio player that doesn't sync with the glass screen with all the traveling I do, though, may have to be a deal-breaker. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was messing around with the new 3d converter on the k rom. Installed N64oid 2.4 and forced convert. It works!! Mario 64 looks amazing! Playing shadowman now and its perfect, everything looks perfect.

Thanks lg! :D

To sum up, N64oid 2.4 install > 3d games converter (with lastest fw) > press menu button > customizable games > N64oid.

Just like the title says..

Would you swap your gorgeous looking S2 for Apple's latest innovating(coughs) release?

Dual core and all and better camera specs and more goodies under the hood than the iphone 4 is this good enough to make you swap and go to the dark side?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tfn:
Seems like its APPLE whose doing the catch up now...

SGS2 has already all the features that the Iphone4s has.. no wonder Apple is running crazy trying to ban the SGS2..

It all makes Sense,

But I guess it won't stop Brainwashed Iphone fans to still QUE for it at midnight which makes them the HIGH I guess.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarpathianUK:
I just caught up with the new features being touted for the 4S and my only reaction was that most (hardware AND os) are being enjoyed by people on other phones already and in some cases for months. HSDPA? 3K pictures? 1080p video? Voice recognition and speech? Yep, been there and doing those.

The only good things about iPhones these days is that they make other manufacturers push their products on a little bit harder.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheetah2k:
.... let me put it this way... If I was on an island, and the iphone 4S was the only phone left on the planet... I would pick it up and throw it into the ocean..

Never, ever, ever again will I buy/own/use an Apple product - period (I don't buy products from ahole patent trolls)

i have owned iphone since 3g until iphone 4 and what can i say ITS BORING! im tired and sick of the same homescreen and design of the iphone. i dont think iphone 4 s or even the ip5 can match the sgs2.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlevy73:
Developers do make some excellent games for the iOS platform. I'll admit, I've logged some serious time on Infinity Blade using my wife's iphone. Right now though, there is no finer device on the market than the SGS2. I would never trade the openess of Android for a locked down iPhone. Only device I'll consider changing to is the Nexus Prime.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SiSL:
It's not problem of Operating System. It's greed of developers that's all. Like saying "Why sell less at Android when I can make more dumbs with money suck my fart app"
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FogDogg:
I'm really happy I switched over from my 3GS to a Galaxy S II. For the first time I actually think Apple is playing catch up. I'll admit iOS (when jailbroken) is an amazing OS, but I think the hardware has been lagging behind recently.

---------- Post added at 01:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:54 AM ----------

There's no question iOS has more quality applications then what's available on Android. Sure the ecosystems are different, but from a development prospective iOS is where the money is at right now. I think some of it is the quality of the development environment and the human interface guidelines/the review process, but at the end of the day if people are paying for fart apps then they're damn sure to pay for quality as well.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vnvman:
Iphone 4s will be a nice gaming console, but the screen size is a deal breaker to me: my old Desire with its 3.7" screen felt super small already, i can't see myself going back to a 3.5", i'd go crazy. If the iPhone had a 4.3" hd display then it could be a different story, even tough i'm not that sure that i'll be sold anyway...iPhones are kinda boring for geeks like me...

Why would I want to trade down to a device with the same specs but a smaller screen?

As for apps, I haven't not been able to find anything I want on Android and if I did then I would always be able to use my browser to find what I need.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rembrandtlnx:
No way, it's not to ask.

Do you really want to trade a better phone, with Linux, for a ios phone, hard to manipulate?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparksltd:
I'll rephrase that question more appropriately.

Would you downgrade your galaxy s2?

...No.

If someone gave you one (4s that is) would you keep it?

...No.

Why?

It takes up too much space in my home.

What would you do with it?

Sell it on eBay for more than the actual retail value and put a sticker on in saying "iPhone 5". That way I'll have iPhone fans queuing outside my front door. Then I would rent my house out as a shooting range. Last one to survive can buy the fake iPhone 5.

Done.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Propergood:
No one's going to bite here. If you can find a forum on neutral ground ask away...

Straying slightly from the topic though, I am (not-so) secretly surprised that Apple didn't pull something out of the bag though... We already knew the latest iteration would carry an A5 and a load of updates to the OS stolen from Android...

Failed to not only raise the bar, but even to reach the one already set. Having officially handed over the title of king in the smartphone arena to Samsung, No wonder they're so desperately patent-bashing the tablet range.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparksltd:
This is true. I dont hate apple products. If they was the best at a sensible price I would buy one. What I don't understand is why people buy them because they think they are the best because they cost the most. I've spoke to a few apple owners on this. Just one the other day. I said to her "my wife has just got a galaxy s2 she really likes it..." she then replied quite defensively "my mum has a android phone and she has nothing but problems with it. I own an iPhone 4 since they came out and its much better and it will be because its the best phone out because it costs the most. Its the fastest smoothest phone out!" I didn't say much back because I was quite shocked.

The thing was too, I didn't say her galaxy s2 was better than her iPhone. In fact I didn't know she owned a iPhone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
well said again...i think my question is ok to ask:D

to that its just a simple question and im asking people what they think about it. I love some of the comments though that they are giving me funny stuff.

you should take a chill pill cause its all fun at the end of the day and people are coming on here to give their opinions like yourself..but when you come out with what you said its not needed i think...but its up to you....and yeah your right..the iphone guys will back their phone of course but because of the not so major release they might tell you differently..i know few of my friends and colleagues who turning to get a nexus or the galaxy now so i think its a question worth asking
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m2smoe:
Why even discuss it? The more people buy iPhones, the less expensive android phones will be. So go ahead, buy your precious iPhones so I can pay less for better :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Raviteja:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zee54:
The specs will be outdated within a week when the Samsung Nexus Prime is unveiled along with Ice Cream Sandwich and all the fancy new features it will bring :)

Just the fact that the most talked about feature was Siri and Notifications, just goes to show how much of an upgrade/improve it is on the iphone4.

But the same way "crazy fools" queued up for hours (maybe even days) to get their hands on a phone that's already 9 months old but just in a white colour, is the same reason why the 4S will sell by the bucket load! ... you gota give props to steve jobs.

Apple to Sue Apple for Breach of Copyright - Apple Tight Lipped

Breaking news...

Tech giant and inventor of almost every item of technology ever in the world ever (ever) Apple has today launched a swingeing lawsuit on tech giant and lawyer's friend Apple (we've got more lawsuits than Claims Direct) for breach of copyright.

Said an Apple spokesperson, "Apple's 'new' product the iPhone 4s ('s' being short for 'sorry it's the same as the last one') clearly infringes several patents held by our own product, the iPhone 4. In fact it is nothing more than a blatant rip off - it is twee, brick-like, severely hobbled for users, temperamental - hell they've even copied our patented ennui feature that sends users to sleep after fifteen minutes of use."

A spokesman for Apple (the other one) said "We'll see them in court...no,we will actually, we're there ever such a lot."
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:

Steve jobs was great brainer in marketing apple products, he just stroke the chord with great touch UI and many people will believe that UI is all about a phone

for all people who believe touch UI is all about,iphone is a dream come true. But a phone is as expensive as an i5 laptop,should have some more things than an UI to offer for their owners,sadly apple wont allow

Apple always want control things,they never give free hand.
