Yep, I'm seriously considering just going Nexus from here on out.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] userno69:
That chart is a joke. Most of the Android phones it has listed are low end or obscure phones that weren't that popular in the first place, save for the Motorola Droid.

The chart is missing the Galaxy S, Evo, Evo 3D, Droid 2, and the whole slew of popular high end Android phones.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] besthijacker:
Chart itself is pretty old. Only shows phones by Q2 in 2010.

Whatever. Take it with a grain of salt but ultimately companies provide little to no support for current devices. If you would like to get newest version of software, one must buy newest phone?

Ohh well. Dont have to like anything

Samsung doesn't deserve to get another dime from me after the 2 POS Vibrants I bought. after multiple exchanges and still unable to get one of them to lock for GPS and they say there isn't a problem hardware wise and keep saying a software fix is coming. that's why my 11 year old got my old Vibrant.

---------- Post added at 06:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:31 AM ----------

yeah great it might get a hacked up semi working ROM cooked up for it. Sure that's why I bought a smart phone to have some of the features not fully work.

At the end of the day even the non techie people know their phone isn't getting updates that others might get. They hear about OS security problems and wonder why the company that made they phone don't release a patch for it. The cell companies blame the phone manufactures and the phone manufactures blame the cell companies, sounds a little childish doesn't it. If Google wants Android to be a real success long term they will need to start requiring a length of time for them to support updates if they are going to make an Android phone.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
what i find funny

besides the fact that people believe this post or expect an update in anything youd call a timely manner.

is

there are posts that everyone went overboard and the original no never said g2x and was only o2x to begin with.

is that this new post is only mentioning the o2x says nothing about the g2x. you can assume its in the other high end smart phones but it says nothing regarding g2x :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mstrk242:
You can't compare the two. Samsung may be making the hardware for this nexus phone, but it's 100% under google's control, samsung doesn't even have a hand in the software process. If you don't like samsung, (which I understand, a lot of people don't) then don't buy their regular phones (gs2, etc). Not buying a nexus phone because you don't like samsung, that's a bit pointless. Nexus phones, google tells the people who are lucky enough to get to make it, what hardware and software goes on it. Samsung has NO say. Software updates come from google, not the carriers, and certainly not samsung.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] kebkebs:
Haha yea if it's on fb then it's really official
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Scoobyracing03:
Yes I know software comes from Google not Samsung. Problem with the Vibrant's GPS was a hardware problem that they said doesn't exist even after it was proven here on XDA and that is why I won't buy Samsung products. If the Nexus phone was made by someone else I'd consider buying it.

[HTC Desire S] OPPiuM:
Hi guys.. I really hope someone can help with this as i am desperate.

I unlocked my Desire S with Revolutionary, then upgraded HBOOT to ENG 2.00.0002. Until now ,after running all roms possible found on this great site, I had the pre-rooted deodexed stock 2.10.401.4

Today I downloaded the RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5, unpacked copied the PG88IMG.zip to my sdcard and begun update. The update was unsuccessful. Now my device says this:

*** LOCKED ***

*** Security warning ***

SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-2.00.0002

RADIO_3822.10.08.04_M

eMMC-boot

The phone is stuck is FASTBOOT, and selecting BOOTLOADER only loads again PG88IMG.zip, and of course after "Checking PG88IMG.zip" it errors with Main version is older! <Power> to REBOOT.

IS there anything that can be done? PLS HELP! :confused:
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
If you remove or rename the PG*.... file from the root of your SD card this should stop happening..

Then you should be able to enter recovery, where I'm hoping that you'll have an available Nandroid backup that you could restore to.
[HTC Desire S] OPPiuM:
Problem is that choosing recovery from bootloader does nothing, just brings me back into fastboot. I think that recovery was wiped during the failed update process.

Also my device is S-on now so i cannot flash a new recovery in fastboot.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Now I'm afraid that I'm a little out of my depth here so won't offer any more advice.......but, you should be able to flash the recovery partition from fastboot...So hopefully all is not lost yet...

EDIT: Apology, only just read that you're S-ON and am not sure what to recommend.
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
You should look at my guides below. Both will tell and show you how to flash recoveries via fastboot.

Check my sig below.
[HTC Desire S] OPPiuM:
Thanks, but before i wrote this question i did read all guides possible, including yours :). Problem is I am stuck in fastboot, i cannot boot the phone, use adb or flash anything via fastboot as my device now is LOCKED and S-ON. Also i have no recovery not even stock one...

Smells more and more like a bricked Desire. Damn.
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
If you have read the guide, you should have known that before you can flash ANYTHING on fastboot, you have to be UNLOCKED first..

You should have tried to unlock it BEFORE flashing anything..

If these doesn't work, then you may be right on your last sentence..

Goodluck!
[HTC Desire S] OPPiuM:
Before attempting the RUU update with pg88img.zip i had ENG HBOOT with S-OFF, but during that update something went wrong. It managed to update to the official HBOOT 2.00.2002 S-ON, but then i got the "Main Version is older - Update Fail! error and i think I need to send it to HTC as I see no way out of this. What i do not understand is this "Main Version is older - Update Fail!" error! why did this happen in the first place as i was updating from pre-rooted deodexed stock 2.10.401.4 to 2.10.401.5.
[HTC Desire S] moloto:
Simmilar problem, still wifi not working

I have got simmilar problem on desire s, got revolutionary S-OFF with 0.98 then tryied RUU with sense, something went wrong.. now i have hboot 2.00.0002 radio 3822.10.08.04_M i opened the hboot via HTC development page, then i flashed the newest ROM by Adidas108: RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5_signed_prerooted SENSE 3.0(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1183684)

now the system is booting properly and i can use the phone again, but the wifi is not working, which sucks because there is newest radio and according adidas108 newest ROM. I havent found solution for this as my hboot is in S-ON now and i cant flash different version of radio. I think first i need to find how to make hboot 2.00.0002 into S-OFF. Anyone any idea?

UPDATE 1: now i managed to install the ROM build 1.28.401 prerooted by Adidas108, everything seems to be working again, even wifi is ok. It is strange that the old ROM is working with newest RADIO and the newest ROM not, does anyone has any reasonable explanation to this issue?
[HTC Desire S] OPPiuM:
Can you please be more specific on how you dealt with your HBOOT. Did you somehow managed to get it S-OFF. I sure need to flash a new recovery and from there i am good, i can resurrect my phone.
[HTC Desire S] moloto:
No my hboot 2.00.... Is s-on, i just unlock the recovery it means i can flash roms, but i cant overvrite radio or hboot on its own. I also need a solution how to make my phone s-off, and as revolutionary is only supporting hboot .98 it will not be easy. For now ill better stáy on my old ROM with sense 2.1 :(
[HTC Desire S] OPPiuM:
I unlocked my bootloader on htcdev. After that my old rom booted up normaly and everythig was back to normal. I then flashed in recovery RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5_signed_prerooted SENSE 3.0 by Adidas108 and it all works perfectly now since my radio was updated before the error with "Main version is older" in the official RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5. thanks guys for the help.. i read Skanob guides again and found out about htcdev. :o
[HTC Desire S] OPPiuM:
BTW, from my experience it seems that you could update your radio to latest version if you try with the official RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5. It will probably error "Main version is older" and lock your bootloader, but you could unlock it on htcdev, and enter custom recovery after that and flash Adidas108's RUU. My wifi works perfectly with 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 radio.
[HTC Desire S] moloto:
Solution

So finnally my cell is working with sense 3.0. I downgraded hboot to 0.98.0000 thanx to Skanob(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1318919), then S-Off with revolutionary, flashed actual clockwork mod recovery, after the newest saga radio and as the last the newest ROM by Adidas108. Everything works fine, even with hboot 98.0002. End of Story

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 16thKilla:
Ok I have a couple of general questions that some may be able to chime in on....

1) with sprint changing up the game and switching over to 4gLTE instead of WIMAXX, are we as Evo wimax users ever going to be able to use LTE w/o upgrading our phone completely?

(I LIVE IN A WIMAXX STRICKEN AREA OF VA AND FEEL AS IF I GOT DUKED ON 2 4G PHONES)

2) Do you guys ever think there will be a rom that will help support Ltd for those of us stricken 4g users now. Or possibly an OTA that will pull us to the top with the rest of the pack of Ltd users?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vulf:
I'm not exactly sure, but I think the 4G (WiMAX) radio in your phone is a physical thing so I don't think you will be able to use the LTE and an OTA or a rom would not change that. I did hear that Sprint will support WiMAX for a while, even if they do switch to LTE.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
No, the Evo will NEVER work on LTE, as it doesn't have an LTE radio. It will continue to work on the wimax network for as long as sprint supports it (probably 2 years or so).

Again no. Flashing a rom isn't going to physically put an LTE radio chip in your phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 16thKilla:
Valid point didn't think about the wimax radio being a physical device...dumb ass me!!!..ha ha..thanks for the reply guys

[Atrix 4G General] twinkiestar:
(first of all, I did search the forum and I did apply a "HDMI mirror disable" fix under gingerbread thread, but it didn't solve my problem)

while I play mkv on my atrix entertainment center which connects to TV via HDMI cable, I can hear the audio and the phone displays the remote control, the TV will show the initial entertainment center navigation "photo, video, music" etc, but as soon as video starts playing, the TV screen goes blank and only shows progress bar when I click pause button on the phone remote. I did notice the phone still displays a portion (prob 1 pixel height) of the video behind the remote control on the phone screen.

I am sure the atrix can play the video as I can view it on the phone's screen while HDMI cable was disconnected.

what else can I try?

Please tell us some more information. What is running on your phone at the moment? Stock firmware or a ROM? Is your phone rooted with/or bootloader unlocked? What other modifications have you done to your phone?

I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S2 ( Indian ) in a flat 4minutes. I was very nervous in rooting the phone having bricked my Samsung i780 in flashing custom ROM and having sent my Omnia i900 nearly to death flashing a custom ROM .... but then the thrill of rooting and modifying the device got better of me and I did it in a flat record time of 4 minutes.

Is it just me or is the Galaxy S2 a victim of its own popularity in the fact that it has so many moaners? I'm completely satisfied with my White GS2, autobrightness is a bit poor but that's not a big deal to me. I've owned a few Android phones,

HTC Tattoo.

HTC Desire.

ZTE Blade.

Motorola Defy.

HTC HD2 (with Android obviously)

Sony X10i.

This phone has been my best experience with an Android phone so far. I used to be a fan of Sense but i feel Touchwiz is BETTER! I think the main problem is the happy users (The majority!) don't feel the need to speak up about it whereas many unhappy users want to make their voice heard. There are people actually saying they HATE this phone on these forums...if that is the case why are they hanging around? Sell the phone and leave the forums :)

I guess when a device sells as well as the GS2 you do end up with a lot of users who bought the phone simply because it's the most popular currently and they haven't done their research prior to buying or upgrading.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cactus42:
That, and the age-old problem that people very very rarely make the effort just to say "My [insert item here] is awesome, that is all." They more often use the effort to moan.

I bloody love my SGS2, best phone I've ever had. Makes everything else look like a poor cousin, even to the point that I don't feel the need to root at the moment - I had to root my Desire not long after I had it to love it this much!

I had the (mis?)fortune to get a play around with an IPhone 4S the other day, and the SGS2 feels so far ahead it's not even funny anymore.

And far too many inexperienced user who dont know how to utilise the phone properly, refuse to read and educate themselves or look for the slightest error and go nuts with it

I think its also wanting to feel part of something (ie this forum/community)....so by posting threads it validates their time on this forum...pretty sad really

I think phones like this should come with a rating of some kind like movies do....

agreed with all the above, the phone is by far and away the best I've owned, had a x10i before which was good, arc and arc s didn't inspire me, Galaxy s2 blown me away to the point I don't really want to root/flash unless there is any real advantage to do it.....as asked in another post, looks like it's worth a flash to the latest stock rom which is what I'll do, at least I know I'll get the updates from sammy direct when released without having to wait for 02
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ephumuris:
