[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DiscipleDOC:
I don't think that anyone is set out to hate a phone that they paid their hard earned cash for. I came from the iPhone world, and I absolutely love my SGS II phone. It may not have all the apps that the iPhone had, but there are many other apps on the android market that you can choose from.

Some people just don't like having to spend a lot of time configuring their phone. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] naturefreak85:
I shall tackle your issues one at a time

I personally have never had a desire to see such, nor did I know a feature like that existed on the iPhone. If you want a feature like that, contact the developer, there is a link in the market for contacting them. Suggest the feature.

Never had that issue myself. I can pause and restart until the cows come home.....

Don't use the app, but when I did a couple versions ago, I didn't have the problem. A tip for you, check under the market entry, it does have a section for when the last update was released. If it has been a while, that explains quite a bit, shoot the developer an email and try to see if they have a new update planned. Don't be retroactive, be proactive.

Sending crash reports doesn't send them to the developer always. Either way, can't help much with that.

When ICS is released for the device we will see the Chrome Bookmarks syncing wirelessly, it's already built into Honeycomb. You can sync them as far as I know through Samsung Kies though.

Check your brightness, it also can be an errant app draining your power. If you use a software like Better Battery Stats you can actually see which program is constantly running and it helps you track down the bad app and uninstall it.

I have run maps through the Car Plug. I start at 70% I arrive at my Destination at 90%. It's not charging faster you are right, so it's not using all the USB voltage. What instead happens is you can keep it charged and it will keep powering the device WHILE charging. I remember reading somewhere that the reason for the slower charge was for better battery health over time. If you fast charge a battery, you hit the charge cycle harder. Losing capacity faster over time. That's why phones will fast charge to 80% then slow charge from 80-90% and Trickle Charge from 90-100% That's how they coped with the desire to charge faster. I personally have not had an issue with this device at all.

One thing I will say, is you seem to suffer from New Device Syndrome. It's when you get a new toy, you tend to use it much more than you may in everyday usage. That's why Battery life also seems terrible. As you settle into your habits your battery life improves.

Remember, when you are near WiFi turn it on and connect, it uses less power than 3/4G. Also turn off Bluetooth when you aren't using it. Set your display to AutoBrightness or just turn it down to 25-50%

Then why complain? You can print to more than just a Samsung Printer you just need an App for it. Google Cloud Print works perfectly on my device. I get an email from a coworker asking me to print it, and I knock it out from my phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gaveup:
Before getting my GSII I had an iphone 4 and before that a 3GS.

I can kind of see where the OP is coming from, but I don't see it the same way. Honestly, after having to deal with jailbreaking, itunes and any sort of customization of my iphone, android really is a breathe of fresh air. Everything management wise on the phone is so much easier on android. Don't think so? Try to add something simple like a custom text sound on an iphone...

Sure there are some little things I miss about the iphone, but I can 100% say with any doubt that if I left android (after 1 week of ownership, at that) and went back to my iphone there is a hell of a lot more features I would miss.

Pandora sucks ( can’t scroll through the songs you played all day )

- I use pandora every day and never even noticed this. However, lately I have been addicted to using grooveshark (tinyshark in the market) and like it much better.

Youtube sucks (can’t pause and restart video)

- Maybe YOU can't do those things, but as others have said, most of us are having no issues with this. Don't act like youtube was so awesome on the iphone. It wasn't....

AP news crashes ( all the time) keep sending reports

- wth uses this? Seriously?

Ebay crashes -( I hate this apps looks ) keep sending reports

- Never had it crash on me, but if it did, just restart it. Remember, no apps crash on the iphone EVER. Definitely not facebook last week...

Web browser sucks ( Doesn’t import your computer browser bookmarks )

- That's the best part of android. You can choose what browser you want to use. The bookmark thing, I don't really use them, so I really don't care for it.

Battery sucks dies down to 50% within 2-1/2 hrs. or less

- Are you trying to say the iphone 4 had better battery life? LOL no.

Car plug can’t charge phone fast enough (And I’m only browsing apps and

websites ) could you imagine running maps rout.

- What car plug are you using? Maps? I can imagine it, because I do it :) I don't even own a car charger though...

Home plug takes to long to charge phone ( apple has a quicker charge)

- Bigger battery takes longer to charge? NO WAI

Can’t print without Samsung printer ( I don’t really care )

- wtf prints from their phone? This sounds like you're just grasping for straws here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] justabrake:
"phones gone" it might of helped me stay if someone would of spoke up about youtube being able to pause and restart earlier but no one did till I said I'm done here, Anyway I'll try another android when this is implemented

ice cream sandwich

In a move that is sure to make a lot of Android/Chrome users happy, Google has finally provided bookmark syncing with Chrome which means whether you’re on your phone or desktop, you’ll always have your bookmarks easily accessible. A few more features Google added was an easy to click “request desktop site” option in the menu for when you want to see the full, desktop version of a site and the new “incognito mode” for viewing those special sites online.

Umm ... you had two responses within an hour saying tap to pause. How quick were you hoping for?

Regardless, I sincerely hope you are happy with the iPhone. Its your money, and you will be the one using it everyday. I wouldn't use a phone I didn't like for two years either. Good luck.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] qwertyaas:
So you're honestly trying to say you couldn't figure out to tap in the middle of the screen so it shows the controls? You haven't even tapped on it by mistake?

You would think that since every video player pauses when you press the middle of the video, that would be the first thing you try.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gaveup:
Sounds like he is a perfect fit for an iphone ;P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ZeroIsntTheHero:
Well said. I agree with you on pretty much all of your points. Pretty much as soon as I got an android device after my iphone I was hooked and wouldn't look back. I admit Siri is kind of fun to play with on the iPhone, but it's more of a novelty than anything else.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] WGSXFrank:
I've been using Navigation along with Pandora/Grooveshark running at the same time in my car daily since I got the phone. Even before I rooted and installed Cognition, it was charging while both things were running on stock.

Perhaps either your charger or battery are defective?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] used2hvatreo:
True to the other member's comments, android phones probably arent for you if you are so against google that you refuse even to use their search engine. I'm guessing from the search I just did you could probably have solved all of your issues with this phone and its operating system with a couple of searches. I don't think its anyone's responsibility to answer questions for your immediately. Please sync yourself back to an iphone and leave xda and the android community happily syncing itself to common sense and logic.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
Cool story bro.

+1

+1. Android is immensely flexible. There is a way to accomplish something you want 97.4% of the time. Obviously, for certain things, it may not be as blatant or intuitive as another OS but I can assure you that there is most likely a way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ngocdao:
i agree with you, but the last statement will remain a fallacy until rooting becomes brick-risk free or out-the-box rooted. Other than that, the 'cant do this and tinkle with that' will only lead to 'so i tinkled with this and now i cant do anything at all'

Android needs a battery % in the status bar without the need of root or app. Bleh.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] ZRW089:
been there

I just broke mine recently too, I ordered a white replacement digitizer on ebay, originally thought I would receive the whole assembly as most are advertised with the housing that has volume /power buttons, I got just the screen still easy fix though it required some tough gloves and a screwdriver to break all the old digitizer out and some impact proof superglue to put old one in though it worked, and now i have a black and white g2x its quite nice here's a link to a video on how to replace it.

I would recommend for ease of replacement to get a black one with the housing (volume and power buttons) attached. much much easier to replace.

dude, that's seriously sick. is your battery door still that weird brown color? i found one white digitizer on ebay for $78. is that what you paid?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fuzzy bee:
I sent mine to LG (well, Stellar Wireless) after I dropped it, and they swapped it out for me for $40. Unfortunately, the one they sent me had non0functioning 4G and GPS, so I had to send it back in and I'm waiting for my replacement to be returned to me.

I ordered the digitizer from eBay. Hopefully it won't be too difficult to replace

So i wanna see what happen to you if the phone looks like that. Dang man thats bad about the phone but its fix able. Unless you want to sell the phone to me for $50 ill take her off your hands :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Psyrecx:
My new digitizer should be here in a couple days, seems a whole lot easier to repair than my last phone, so I will update on how it goes. My biggest thought is about getting dust or anything between the LCD and digitizer. :/
[T-Mobile LG G2x] uploder:
looks like a nasty fall :eek: did you have a screen protector on it or even a case? or were you rocking the naked look? just curious

[T-Mobile LG G2x] noobletsausecakebbq:
White g2x... do want...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ZRW089:
Yes its that brown color but i have a white silicone case otw aswell as a zagg invisashield on it now, ebay is where I got it but like i said It came without the housing around it which made it a pain to replace i had to use some rubber coated gloves and bust the old digitizer out of the housing and scrape and break all the glass off with a screwdriver (i would recommend saftey glasses if you do this almost got glass chip in the eye) and had to do my best to get the adhesive off, then superglue the new one back in with impact proof superglue. if you buy a regular black one off ebay look for something indicating that it has the housing with power and volume buttons on it makes for a much cleaner replacement and much easier replacement. mine was like $68, I think some of the whiteones also have housing.

Is it completely stripped? Or some "grip" left to the screw, if there's some grip try another screw driver, even a flat blade, with more downward pressure.

Other than that, an easy out. I dunno how small they make them tho.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowpost99:
My SGT10.1 is rooted/In Paris/Pershoot's latest kernel/OC 1.4 and everything appears to be fine for last week and a half. I noted even before the OC however, that Dolphin for Pad occasionally just closes for no particular apparent reason. There is no FC message. Just gone. When I re-open the browser, it's a new session, no restore option. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this? I'd heard someone mention to others about some type of trace that the developers use to track down crashes like a dump file. also if i try to use the find on page option, it crashes with report/close.

You will have to unlock/root your phone first. Then you can peobably use any Arabic patch available fie XE based rons, such as Android Revolution V3.6.x

PS, sinse you have an official XE, could you run benchmark tests such as CF Benchmark and report the results? Especially the processor speed.

I got the normal sensation and it updated to arabic on its own...go to settings>about phone>software updates>check now

That will allow writing/reading arabic but not arabic system language

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
RUU's are complete Stock ROM's by themselves. You will lose Clockworkmod Recovery and Superuser when you flash them. If you want to preserve both, then flash this Safe Flash RUU. (It's the Stock ROM with the Sock Recovery removed, and Superuser added)

when I was rooted with gfree, it unlocked itself, but now it's locked again, anyway to unlock it without voiding warranty? if not it's hardly going to matter.

don't think they care about the root, sent mine in many times with rooted roms and they seem to send my replacements and I'm on t-mobile, but just to be sure I don't think they care about S-on or off they might just care if the rom is significantly different like sense roms
