[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hurricurry:
The only thing that seems better is the screen.

Anyone going to get a galaxy nexus and replace their sgs2?

Engadget said that the screen of the galaxy nexus is on par or marginally better than the sgs2.

The only advantage then would be that you would have a nexus line device with fast updates.

And with lcd density chamber you can fake high res screen to.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Propergood:
If I lose or destroy my SGS2, I'll probably replace it with a Galaxy Nexus. Otherwise, no.

The screen is considerably better on the new Nexus, and I do like the form factor.. but that to me is not worth any expense as my current display is more than ample and I also love the physical design of the SGS2. The obvious advantage is instant access to ICS and NFC... Which I can wait for and am not too fussed about respectively.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdy2go:
Pentile matrix on Nexus Prime is awful downgrade from AMOLED PLUS (normal matrix) of SGS2. Resolution is a marketing lie, there's PENTILE issue.

Camera is worse than on SGS2.

SGS2 will soon be upgraded to ICS - promised by Samsung officially.

The only reason is getting timely updates without waiting for manufacturer for ages. But only for one year until next google phone comes out.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
Agreeing with the above, it makes no sense to upgrade an SGS2 to a nexus prime, however if you currently have neither then you can make a choice, however personally unless you need something like NFC I would still chose the SGS2 any day.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eitama:
Where was it promised officially??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rovex:
Dont write the nexus screen off just because its pentile. Its still has higher sub pixel density than the S2. Samsungs pentile screens are a world better than motorolas (who have give pentile a bad name), so without seeing the 2 side by side we cant know if the nexus is a bad screen or not.

The S2 camera may well give better pictures at its best but the nexus camera does have the continuous focus feature and instant shot. This is better for the more candid and random sort of pictures people take with camera phones. Whether the S2 camera will get this with ICS we dont know, but it may be a feature of the hardware in the Nexus, so something the S2 cant do.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jok4h:
Spec for Spec & Dollar per Dollar the SGS2 wins.

Besides the screen, everything else is similar or of lower specs on the GN

In saying that thou, if i do lose or kill my SGS2 i will prob upgrade to the GN only coz its newer..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbroeders:
Although I somewhat agree with the above, if you can afford it and love plain vanilla android, why not?! I'm definitely going to buy one. The SGS2 is an amazing phone and spec-wise the Nexus is just on par, but the fact that you get plain vanilla android with all its amazing features is sufficient for me. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdy2go:
Cyanogen-mod is close to stock, you can see how well SGS2 performs and how responsive it can be without all the bloat ware. It's amazing.

I think it's better wait for the next Galaxy S, which is going to be far superior than Nexus Prime.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomascunill:
I agree with this. Having your phone withouth touchwiz officially is one of the top things the galaxy nexus has over the SGS2, for me (I know a lot of people like touchwiz, but I personally don't). I'm indeed loving my SGS2 with CM7, but having the android exprrience (and ICS!) withouth having to load any custom ROMs to your device is priceless.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akos.szekacs:
I have a listbox, with custom items. Code:

<ListBox Height="600" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="7,6,0,0" Name="friendList" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="449" ItemsSource="{Binding Friends}">
<ListBox.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<toolkit:WrapPanel />
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemsPanel>
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid Margin="5,0">
<Image Height="120" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Name="image" Stretch="Fill" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="120" Source="{Binding ImageUri}" GotFocus="image_GotFocus"/>
<CheckBox Height="78" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="65,63,0,0" x:Name="selectedChckbox" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="55" IsChecked="{Binding Selected, Mode=TwoWay}"/>
<TextBlock Height="58" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="0,122,0,0" x:Name="nameTextBlck" VerticalAlignment="Top" Text ="{Binding Title}" Width="120" TextWrapping="Wrap" GotFocus="name_GotFocus"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>

I've created a veiwmodel for the values for binding, and when I click on one item I want to change the checkbox state like so:

friendSelectionViewModel.Friends[_selectFriendContent.friendList.SelectedIndex].Selected = !friendSelectionViewModel.Friends[_selectFriendContent.friendList.SelectedIndex].Selected;

But the only way the listbox gets the values updated, if I set the datacontext to null and than assign the viewmodel aggain like so:

_selectFriendContent.DataContext = null;
_selectFriendContent.DataContext = friendSelectionViewModel;

But this takes about 5-10 seconds to refresh the list. I know there is a better solution, I just cant figure out how.

Thanks in advance!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otherworld:
I don't know what datatype your collection 'friends' is from what you've posted, but I assume it's some kind of collection of objects of type 'Friend' class, and if so you can achieve what you want as long as the 'Friend' class itself is also a viewmodel (i.e. implements INotifyPropertyChanged) and has a property on it called 'Selected'. It's that class that any bindings in your datatemplate will look to as a viewmodel.

Taking the above to be true; what you need is to bind your ListBox's SelectedItem property, e.g.:

<ListBox

x:Name="lbFriendsList"

SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedFriend, Mode=TwoWay}"

...

in your 'friendSelectionViewModel', when an item in the list is selected it will trigger code in the 'SelectedFriend' property's "set" method, where you will have access to the Friend object that has been selected, and you will be able to do whatever you want to it, e.g. to always have it 'checked' when it is tapped, you might have this kind of code in your friendSelectionViewModel (assuming you've got the xaml in place that I've written above):

public Friend SelectedFriend

{

get

{

...

}

set

{

if(value != null)

value.Selected = true;

}

}

As long as you've set up the class Friend as a viewmodel too, and code a 'Selected' property in the Friend class (and as with most properties in viewmodels you set it up to call the typical OnPropertyChanged("Selected "); in its 'set' method) then that will trigger the update of the checkbox that you've set up in the datatemplate (because you've already got that bound to the property 'Selected' in your Xaml).

Hope that's clear and helps :)

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akos.szekacs:

Use your insurance.

[Thunderbolt General] fillyo:
Filed a claim, they are on backorder, wtf?
[Thunderbolt General] scottthreet32:
CALL UP ASURION to see when u will get never heard of back order for phone day out tops then again phone may not be available anymore can u live with cracked screen till then
[Thunderbolt General] ph00ky:
If Ashurion is out of stock of your phone, they will replace it with another 4g phone if you ask.

My brother's Fascinate broke a couple months ago, they replaced it with a brand new Droid X2 just a week after it came out.

I'd recommend aiming for the Bionic.

Good luck
[Thunderbolt General] skinien:
The bright side is that the Bears won!
[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
yeah they'll replace it with another. it's a shame you didn't "damage" it until after the launch of the 3 new ones.
[Thunderbolt General] nrfitchett4:
I'd fight for a bionic as well.
[Thunderbolt General] babybacon:
Honestly, asurion is gonna charge you 90 bucks to replace it.

And a new digitizer is only 30. I have gotten ripped off by asurion too many times.
[Thunderbolt General] *Madmoose*:
I can't believe people still pay for insurance. It's a scam and way too expensive for the service they provide.
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
Ok paying 8 bucks a month is better than paying 600 if you break or lose your phone.

If I helped please use the thank you button and donate a free account to my dropbox http://db.tt/uDc7iw7x
[Thunderbolt General] g00s3y:
Yeah bro, that $7 a month kills my bank account. Yearly that comes out to about $84, that's a few lap dances right there... :rolleyes:
[Thunderbolt General] *Madmoose*:
Plus deductible. If you drop a phone and truly break it, it's probably because you didnt have a proper case on a $600 item. But most breaks occur to the digitizer....$30 and extremely easy to fix. Your local mom and pop computer shops will throw those things in for you for less than your deductible.

I'm not trying to knock anyone for paying for insurance...but those companies aren't in it to lose money. And everyone forgets about their warranty. We've sent a couple phones back for repairs and get them back within 3 days of HTC receiving them.

But losing a $600 phone...well that would be the only good thing I can see coming out of it. But cmon...if you lose a $600 phone from being careless ya kind of get what you deserve. Laptops cost less than that now. Gotta hold yourself to some kind of responsibility.
[Thunderbolt General] fillyo:
Well, I got my replacement, all is well. Sure, 99 sucks, but got to keep the battery and memory card, so now I have two of each, put the memory card in my flyer.

Can I take it that you got another T-Bolt back? I am in no hurry to split with it although if it breaks in a years time and I am able to get something better the Insurance will be worth it.

Note: I have never used my insurance since I got it on my OG droid.
[Thunderbolt General] ryanlc:
If you weren't a Bears fan, I would be deeply saddened by this, but the Buccaneers fan in me laughs out loud.

j/k...bummer your screen broke. Glad you got your replacement already!
[Thunderbolt General] Jamez007Bond:
Well now that you got your replacement phone, this would be a good time for you to do one of those screen replacement kits so that you have a backup phone and then you might decide to even drop your insurance on your current phone to save $$$.
[Thunderbolt General] fillyo:
You don't get to keep the old phone, you have to send that back. Otherwise, definately would have fixed the screen and kept as back up.
[Motorola Photon 4G] anaragayevafr:
On my previous phone Samsung Vibrant i used to receive network message about balance after every call and sent messages. Do you guys have any idea why i dont receive such messages with my photon? Is this because of the photon designed for 4G and i must wait for new ROM?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kevets:
That generally occurs on prepaid networks only, where normally you need to be more concerned with usage.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kcarpenter:
This. 10 char
[Motorola Photon 4G] MultiDev:
Huh? I have never gotten such a message on any phone that I have used. And I have been on AT&T and Verizon with limited txt messaging and limited minute plans.

My guess would be those messages are obsolete and have been turned off because everyone can check their balence/stats via text massage or Sprint's website. No real need for messages after every call anymore since you can now check anytime, rather than having to end a call to see stats.
[Motorola Photon 4G] anaragayevafr:
In our country carriers provide both service. Send a message to check your balance and pop-up window about usage after every call and msg. For ex. my samsung vibrant which was t-mobile`s phone supported that services.
[Motorola Photon 4G] w0lf215:
I have never received any notifications on any mobile device like that.. Granted ive only had Sprint, but still. If you want to easily check your minutes/text/data usages just dial *4 on your Sprint phone and it will play you back how many minutes,texts, and kbs of data you have used/have left, you can even get it to send it all to your phone in a text message after.
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Well my only guess would be since you are in a different country you carrier doesn't support this feature on the Photon.
[Motorola Photon 4G] anaragayevafr:
Yessss, i`m in different country, so i`m not using any of US carriers
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Then I would check with your carrier.

[Touch2 General] Hakim Rahman:
to synchronize the device with a Windows Vista machine and Windows 7(32-bit), you can use drvupdate - x86 that can be obtained at ~ http://www.4shared.com/file/L2TH8YgU/drvupdate-x86.html

so you can do flash HSPL and flash rom too

[HD7 General] bpo157:
I was wondering if all the updates for mango are done. I updated the mango 7720 RTM when it first came out. I have not received the official update from tmobile. I tried zune and windows phone on my mac and it says I am up to date.

os 7.10.7720.68

hrv 0002

software says 7.5

I do not think its to official update because I try to use connected media and it says my device not supported.

Did they not get to everybody yet or do I have to downgrade to nodo..
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
the Mango RTM is, in fact, the actual Mango release available OTA.

though, it is missing the updated HTC OEM drivers.

the updated OEM drivers for Europe can be found, here.

else, you will need to reflash your device. ROMs can be found, here.

[HTC Desire S] -Ram-:
Hey guys,

I'm wondering what ROM is better, Runnymede or Endymion, what gives you better performance and battery life, which one is smoother?

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] Adidas108:
Endymion 1.1 much better for me
[HTC Desire S] -Ram-:
What do you like about it :)
[HTC Desire S] swordlink:
I'll go for runnymede: Oc up to 2Ghz ;)
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Endymion is the superior rom.

You dont need overclocking with this one even for demanding performance. While with other sense 3.5 roms out there overclocking is an absolute essential even for something like a lag free rosie... There goes battery life out the window.

Anyway, what kind of battery do you expect with 2 ghz oc ? Plus there are known kernel problems there.

Also how long would you expect to keep your phone alive keeping it overclocked like that...?

There is nothing out there with sense 3.5 that is even remotely in Endymion's league.

However, I do acknowledge that opinions are always subjective and everybody is entitled to their own.

So I'd suggest you flash both roms and try them out for yourself.

Firstly, you will get a first hand picture of which one is better...

And secondly it doesn't cost you anything except some time...

Which again is the least you can put in to try out two of the best 3.5 roms for your phone designed by Devs using their valuable time and yet offered to you absolutely free of charge.!

Hope this helped. Cheers.

Beamed from deep space using brainwaves.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I'm sorry but IMO the ability to OC to a higher degree isn't a benefit, OC your simply means burning more battery and simply shorten battery life. Anything over 1.5Ghz has been demonstrated and discussed many times to be dangerous for any prolonged periods unless you are intending to use your device as a form of central heating.

Using Nandroid Backup you should be able to install and run both ROMS alongside one another as well as keep the ROM that you're currently on all in case you choose to return to that....if you do please post back your findings and comparisons.
[HTC Desire S] andronik22:
Has established Endymion 1.1? But sound improvement (Beats) does not work.:confused: How to treat? Excuse for my English.
[HTC Desire S] Lilion12:
I've only tested Endymion 1.1 for 2 days now and i'ts really good.

I've O/C my phone @ 1228mhz via SetCpu and it's very fluid and fairly battery eating.

I can't do anything but advise you this rom, very good stuff for me, but i don't have anything to compare on this device...
[HTC Desire S] zeekiz:
Irrelevent point, I'm running the HTC stock kernel with no overclocking (with some extensive priortising of non launcher applications), and I'm experiencing no lag what so ever. (Proxuser's Runnymede S)
[HTC Desire S] Adidas108:
better kernel support and its very stable.
[HTC Desire S] skymoon_891_:
Using runnymede with stock kernel no lags but battery drains :\
[HTC Desire S] crwblyth:
Runnymede is perfect for me. Speedy without OC, but I did it anyway. No bugs and battery last 2-3 hours longer than my stock 2.3 with Sense 2.1.

[HTC EVO 3D] Martaan:
Hey there! How do you update a rooted device with the New stock update?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
If you're asking I'm going to assume you haven't gone through this process before and will suggest this beginners approach.

With the main goal being to maintain root access, the majority of HTC OTA updates generally patch up the system and remove any previous root access. The main caution will be to properly update w/o losing root. If you're okay with losing root, run the OTA but be mindful a new rooting method might take a while, maybe even months.

Safest approach for beginners would be to wait until a rooted stock ROM is published by developers and flash this file.

Also, the radios are usually posted in separate .zip files to be flashed through recovery.

If you're an advanced user, you can pull down the OTA and analyze which parts are being updated. Essentially, you'll want to avoid flashing a stock recovery and a stock bootloader. Those aren't needed while rooted and *might* impact the currently used hacked bootloader/exploit method.

The OTA files, you can form into a ROM, or return to stock ROM and flash the patch OTA files.

Hope that helps!
[HTC EVO 3D] Martaan:
I don't mind loosing root and all that and I used the revolutionary method to root. But when I try to update it wont work :(
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
The OTA process is quite a few steps. Some steps are more important than others as some impact more low level features and some do not.

The more detail you can provide, the better of an answer you'll receive.

The answer for the detail provided, "it won't work", is what part of the process doesn't work?

You aren't able to download the file? After downloading it says the file isn't valid? After rebooting to process the file the custom recovery produces an error? After the custom recovery processes the file it hangs on the unpackaging/radio update screen?

Hope that helps guide you in the right direction!
[HTC EVO 3D] Martaan:
It could not apply the update. But I installed the official ruu and I got unroot :)

2) call quality? after all its a phone :)

3) Ice cream sandwich: will this phone get ISC

4) this phone is at ARGOS for £180 BRAND NEW sim free... is it worth it or can i get it cheaper ?

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
1) Screen is made of mineral glass, idiot reviewers that claim the screen is plastic are wrong. They get confused with the fact that all xplays come fitted with a shatter proof screen protector.

2) Call quality is great no probs there.

3) although no announcements have been made by sony about ICS. It's almost certain we will get the upgrade.

4) i payed £320 for my play and don't regret it!
