[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lootes:
Build quality and weight are very similar between the two. As i said, size wise they are almost identical.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wanderfowl:
If you're concerned about the size of the phone (as I am), phone-size.com has a nifty tool for visualizing it.

http://phone-size.com/?p=[1,3,54]

The one thing that's making me lean towards keeping my Bionic is that the GNex is almost as big as the Infuse 4G, which was a GIGANTIC phone. Personal choice, of course, but I didn't realize the size was so big until I saw the comparisons.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NexusDro:
Since the screen is curved, is it better to put the phone in the pocket with the screen facing your body or is it better if the phone is pointing out?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
Curve is to accomodate your ass.

I invented cyberspace. You're trespassing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justabrake:
i'm not concerned about the size i was just hoping it was big enough since people here in nyc walk around at night showing off the lights of there screens :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
I'd assume you put glass facing towards your leg. That's how I keep my phone now anyways.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gravis86:
+1

Facing the screen to your body helps protect it from getting broken or scratched if you bump into something. Which I do quite often.

I also don't put anything else in my pocket with my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
oh definitely. That's a death sentence for your screen!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sauron0101:
I wonder... I have put my phone in my pocket with my keys before. I haven't had scratches on the screen, although I don't do it much. How well will this screen stand up to abuse?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
The curve is pretty much nonexistant, it's not doing anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] saquib:
Wrong thread!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vash1053:
I'm extremely critical of pentile because its issues are very obvious to my eyes. That said, I believe that at this resolution, it will be tolerable to even someone like myself.

I'm 50/50 about the SD thing. On one hand, it can be useful. On the other, I realize that the cloud is the future of storage on phones-- not physical media or removable storage.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sauron0101:
The Pentile is noticeable to me on the Galaxy S. Lets phone the higher resolution mitigates it. Some websites are saying it does already.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
You're wrong. I had a Nexus S and the feeling when you're making a call is very nice.

I owned the SGSII for a few months and it felt like plate on my face.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
The nexus s curve is awesome, I agree, but it appears to be too subtle on the GN though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sauron0101:
Does the curve warrant another post? There are some people putting out crap on it on the forums.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mstyle88:
Anyone know how the Galaxy Nexus is sitting flat on a desk? Past Android's were a mixed bag. Some wobbled, some sat solidly on a flat surface. I think its a quality of the iPhone 4 that its flat on the back. For me its important since my phone usually lays flat while I work. Sometimes I dont even pick it up to look at things on my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Check out the comparison pics between the SGS2 and GN on howardforums. The Super Amoled HD kicks the Super Amoled Plus's ass.

GN screen looks so much better. The Galaxy S only had a Super Amoled (no plus or HD)

G2x - 2.3.7 CM7

Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sauron0101:
Based on the photos, I'd agree. I'm strongly leaning in favor of getting this phone at some point (probably early next year it looks like).
[HTC Desire S] roidroid:
Hi,

I read this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1312144 and flashed the radio attached in it. Everything flashed ok and I can make calls/ send txt etc.

However I checked the version and on my phone it reads as:

Baseband version: 20.4801.30.0822P_3822.10.08.04_M

The version on the thread says it should install 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M

The difference being 0822P and not 0822U.

I am on O2 and my previous radio was 20.28I.30.085AP_3805.06.02.03_M

I wanted to check if anybody knew if this was ok to leave or I should flash something else??

Many thanks

Radio version is only 3822.10.08.04_M part

Rom version is 20.4801.30.0822P part

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shipooo:
dears,

i'm new to android just got my galaxy s2 couple of days ago and started downloading apps and it is wonderful, but i realized that all apps even the OS apps like Maps consume internet like alot and i can't control specific apps either to block backet data on all apps or to allow it and get broke. and i need some apps to always connect to internet like exchange and what's app, then i found nice apps like droid wall, and download minitor that can apply firewall rules for specific apps, but unfortunately i found out that those apps need my device to be rooted. i've read about rooting the phone but i didn't get it much, here's some info about my device:

model number: GT-I9100

Android version: 2.3.3

baseband version:I9100XXKG5.

kernel version:2.6.35.7-I9100JPKH1-CL453266root@dell140 #2

and Kies says that my current firmware is the latest firmware: PDA:KH1 / PHONE:KG5 / CSC:KH1 (MID)

please i need help either to control my apps or to root the device. i need to find the insecure firmware for my current firmware.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
If you just need root to get Droidwall installed, and you're not confident with flashing a kernel, [30/OCT][ROOTING/UNROOTING] Xperia 2011 Easy Rooting Toolkit [v1.0](zergRush Exploit) might be your best choice.

However, if you do decide to root by flashing a different kernel, see [03.11.2011][CF-Root 4.4] KE*, KF*, KG*, KH1/3/4, KI2/3/4/8, KJ1/2 - su+bb+CWM4] for stock kernels with root (you're looking for KH1 I guess), or [KERNEL] Insecure Kernels for use with rooting for kernels to use with [GUIDE] And then there was ROOT.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shipooo:
many thanks o you man, your reply was really helpfull, though i needed to know the diffirence between the two, what would i gain more if i flashed my kernel? i tried the second one but when i start Odin with the KH1 kernel or XWKDD it stops in the setup connection step and fails, although i enabled usb debugging and started my phone in the download mode. any idea?>>
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
I recommend to flash CF-Root kernel for XW_MOT_KG1, as your current kernel is JPKH1, which is Android 2.3.3.

And stick to Chainfire's description on how to flash this kernel.

After flashing this rooted kernel, your phone will be rooted. So every app, which needs root, will run.

P.S.: If you want to get rid of the yellow triangle when booting, read Chainfire's second post.

Good luck !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrBira:
Are you starting odin with "right click ---> run as administrator"?

second thing i came to think of... did you plug your phobe directly to an usb-port at the back of your computer, or via an usb hub?

never use hubs or frontplate usbports when you wanna flash.

just my two cents :)
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvigue:
any idea why? it will stay on that screen forever..

cm7, with glitches kernal...low leak kernal
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OhioYJ:
Sounds like you flashed the wrong kernel for your ROM, or it didn't flash properly. You'll need to flash a new kernel/rom to get back out of it.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidstyle:
Try holding the power and volume up button till the phone powers off, then let it reboot.

Did you wipe cache and dalvik before flashing glitch?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvigue:

[LG Optimus 3D] Cav3:
yeah im uploading it now and i was proper shaking it like hitting the floor hard with my feet while walking and moving the phone all over the place which would make any other camera jerk all over.

but it will take a while to upload cos i got 30kb/s upload lol **** internet. but i just got back home now

[LG Optimus 3D] hefonthefjords:
I played with it a little earlier. Seems to be pretty decent. The camera has seen a massive overall improvement. Physical shutter button and Flash in 3d mode are the two massive improvements that stand out above all.
[LG Optimus 3D] dinoric81:
Would you say that the quality of the 2d photos has had a big improvement and is the auto focus quicker now?
[LG Optimus 3D] Benz-Driver:
Thx for uploadung! Unfortunately the video resolution seems not to look good @1080p. There seems to be a lack of sharpness. Honestly said, iPhone 4S 1080p videos look much better. :(
[LG Optimus 3D] MadCobbler:
Thanks for letting me know about the physical shutter button, thats made the camera a lot better :)
[LG Optimus 3D] Cav3:
I know but in well lit shots it's good but that video was during late afternoon I'll try in the shopping centre cos weather ATM is goofy and dark it's rubbish I'll also take a non stabilised one too

Ok, in this conditions, video looks better. Was this made with stabilizer?

which rom you are using? i,m using THIS(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1335514) rom and my camera is not fluid and always fires :(
[LG Optimus 3D] hefonthefjords:
Video in the acurateam v1 and v2 gingerbread roma is PERFECT. Like totally flawless. No mor glitches or stops or poor audio sync. The quality is great. The stills have improved vastly in quality as well as the overall speed of the camera having improved immensely, to a more than useable level.

Add in the video editor and you have a very useable camera. My one beef is not being able to edit 1080p video.
[LG Optimus 3D] dinoric81:
Should we still expect the vast improvement in quality of 2d photos to still be there once LG release the final version of gingerbread in the next couple of weeks?

Does anyone have info on warranties? What's Samsung's position on a manufacturer's warranty? I appreciate the 3rd party insurer suggestion, but it seems like a warranty would be best for issues such as manufacturing defects. Does Squaretrade or renter's insurance even cover such phone issues? I thought they were only for loss or accident.

I have had square trade warranty in the past and they are awesome.

However no luck for us now for items purchased outside USA

Here is the mail that I got from them

Thank you for contacting SquareTrade.

Unfortunately, you will not be able to get our coverage as the insurance polices, we offer are only for the items purchased brand new within US and are only for US residents at the current point of time.

We might increase our coverage area in the near future but unfortunately, we are not doing so at the moment.

For customers who live outside the fifty United States, the SquareTrade Care Plan is only available on items purchased from our integrated resellers who allow for International purchases like Crutchfield.

Hope that answers your question! You can also reply to this email or call 1-877-WARRANTY (1-877-927-7268) US & Canada only, 24/7.

Thank you,

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loveubuntu:
I rooted and installed phiremod on emmc. I've downloaded a free epub book (drm free) but don't know how to use it. I assume I have to use the B&N android app. but when I plug in the nook into my ubuntu I have two drives show up, one is the B&N drive and the other appears to be the CM7 phiremod. They both have places I can place the file but I've tried numerous locations on both drives and I still do not see it in the B&N nook app. Any hints?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgaf:
In your sdcard drive you should have a folder named Nook, in there go into the folder My Documents or Files (dont remember) and drop the epub. Restart the Nook app and go to My Files section and you should be able to see the book. If it doesn't show try hitting the refresh button on the Nook app or rebooting.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loveubuntu:
Thanks. It seems like the first file was corrupt. It works now.

Can you tell me what the second drive (appears to be emmc) is good for? With the phirerod cm7, I am using the nook app which seems to store things on the same card. What can we use the emmc for? It does have a B&Nnook folder and my documents folder also. All is empty though. Everything is in the sd card. Is it possible to boot into a stock rom also?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgaf:
If you have phiremod installed in emmc there's no way to boot into stock. I guess you can use the internal drive as extra space, since you can install apps in it. But only if you really need it, I wouldn't recommended tinkering around in the internal drive, well atleast don't delete stuff unless you are sure what it is and does.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] traveler12:
Ran into this problem a while ago when I tried to import my sky.fm URL's from my Palm 755p and found the TP2 couldn't do simple streaming. Just got off the phone with HTC tech support, and confirmed that, 1. there is no playlist streaming and no way to make it work, and 2. HTC tech support is clueless (that's probably old news by now).

Since there is no copy and paste function on the TP2 I have to enter a URL with an .asx stream into the Media Player manually, like sky.fm's URL's, but there's no way to save it in the media player library. I can't enter the URL into MSIE since there's no MIME type for .ASX, so it prompts to save it as a file, then there's no way to open it. Same thing for MP3 streams and playlists. It was pointless to explain to HTC that MP3 streams were around long before the TP2 existed.

I'm less surprised that this device is missing this simple function, as I am about the lack of people complaining about it. Is it possible that manufacturers' intentional selective deletion of particular media has convinced most users that they must learn to live without certain "prohibited" media, or has everyone else used work-arounds I haven't found yet?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] JDog2pt0:
There are other available media players besides Windows Media. Just do a quick forum or Google search and I'm sure you'll find something.
