[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 00mred00:
What is really sad about that is that the skyrocket was developed quite a while ago...att's lack of lte is the only thing that held up the release. the sr was actually developed prior to the US sgs2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] appdroid:
Pirateghost is coming here on Skyrocket so we will have another beast in dev forum!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ee23hd2:
just got my skyrocket yesterday, coming from the gs2. Someone offered me a price I couldn't refuse for it, so I took some of the cash I made and upgraded one of my lines. Normally i do my homework before buying any device, but all the gs2 owners i talked to were moving to the sr, and i felt confident i was upgrading. So when i checked out the dev scene, i got a little worried. I did notice we had cm7 now. So usually that means miui isnt too far behind. Im hooked on miui, so that will be a major deciding factor for me staying with this or not. I hope its just a situation like we had with the infuse. It took time but now the infuse has cm7, miui, and plenty more. On another note, i love the skyrocket so far, love the screen, and even stock its running pretty smooth

What do you guys think? Will we see miui? I dont mind being patient. I just hope its coming.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
Welcome... and yes the development is starting to pick up. I can say we have 2 very good devs we are trying to get devices for they have already started cooking up stuff and do not even have the device yet. I also came from the gs2 and the love my skyrocket the bigger screen ,and Lte makes it a winner for me. Remember the skyrocket is still very new but rest assured development is starting to pick up
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cue_32:
+1 on this...

I love my GS2LTE compared to my old i-9100... the bigger screen and LTE was major upgrade, but the early dev-scene was scary and is really starting to pick up.

BTW... I too paid $749 for my phone. I used up all my HW upgrades for my wife's iPhone 4, iPhone 4 white, then the iPhone 4S... so it's only right. =)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] justanothernoob:
I got my nexus now and coming from the sir I gotta say this thing is superior to the sir in every way minus lte.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Girn:
Lol the camera is worse. And how you liking ics
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CZ Eddie:
Nexus is a step back from SR hardware wise, IMO. Except maybe the CPU/GPU is a sideways step.

What makes the Nexus quicker than the SR is the ICS being designed for multiple core processors. So once SR has ICS, it'll likely be quicker or as quick as the Nexus.

SR has better battery & camera. Arguably better screen tech, but gets beat in resolution.

Processor debate is up in the air and can't truly be argued until SR gets ICS so the true ability of the dual core can be recognized.

Nexus can't use a Micro SD card and you can't remove the battery. Those are two big minus' for some people.

Even if my area wasn't getting LTE next month (or next year), I'd probably stay with the SR over the Nexus. But that's just my opinion.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Pirateghost:
where have you heard you cant remove the battery?? it just like any other galaxy S 2 model with its plastic cover...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Lucidmike:
I loathe my skyrocket on a daily basis. I had a chance to play with my an original single core 1ghz Galaxy S again (my gf has it now), and I was shocked how buttery smooth the UI was that I had forgotten about, when the Skyrocket seemed a big choppy.

My real gripe about it is the XviD encoded videos. I'm sure the processor can handle decoding in full fps, but at the moment, it decodes at 2/3 of the original framerate, and I can't stand it. I check every day for developments on this issue, and I'm hopeful that one day it will do full frame rate decoding on hardware acceleration.

I switched from a SGH-i777, and aside from no LTE, it was a perfect device in every way.

The good thing about it is that LTE is stunning. It actually feels like I'm on home wifi whereas, even with HSPA+ giving me 10mbits/sec, it still feels like I'm browsing the net on a cell phone because of the latency. LTE be a fair trade-off for all the hassles. But barely.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jthornton71707:
stay for the love of god... The SGS II is just plain crappy. The Nexus Prime seems intriguing but come on realestically? 5MP camera, No Micro SD, no LTE, Non removable battery... i think thats the same specs the iphone 3g had in 08... just sayin. Im not a hater. I wanted a nexus prime soooo bad till i read the specs.... Google Flubbed this one up
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Pirateghost:
where the hell are you guys getting that the Nexus has a non-removable battery? i have been looking for this since the other guy posted it earlier. reviews, ifixit, everything i have read, have indicated the battery is removable.....even in the pics you can see the same plastic back as on the GS2...

i mean seriously guys....where did you come up with this info?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] iRide113:
What makes you say that? The SGS II is extremely better in terms of performance. If you bring up the processor, yes it may have a smaller processor but its chipset is way better than the SkyRocket's.

Forgot where I saw it, but on some review (I think it was TechGuy) the two were summarized very well. The SkyRocket is for people who want blazing internet speeds and a big screen, while the SGS II is for people who want performance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] justanothernoob:
I'm on a nexus and trust me the battery is removable. And its not all about the benchmarks, I had a SR and I liked it but ics and on the nexus is just amazing. Its so buttery smooth. And yes it has a 5mp camera but its not terrible, if I'm gonna take a nice picture I'm gonna use my dslr not my phone. It doesn't have an sdcard slot but honestly I'm not missing it cause now all my music is on Google music. The screen on the nexus is the best screen I've had on an android phone and Ive had several super amoled plus devices but the nexus beats them all. And I'll never have to wait for att to release an update, or hope for a manufacturer leak...

Nexus is just plain better...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
from that i got that the only thing that is worth it is the screen resolution. and thats not worth it. its still a good device though
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jthornton71707:
Sgs2 wins by a hair when it comes to Performance is minimal at best....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] iRide113:
Depends. Quadrants? Don't mean anything. The Exynos chip allows for incredibly better performance. Don't get me wrong, the SkyRocket is fast and a good phone in its entirety, but the Galaxy II is better from a hardware perspective. And thus with better hardware, it leads to better performance. The processor of the Skyrocket is the Snapdragon S3 - not an overclocked Exynos, Because Qualcomm has an LTE chip. For its extra 300 mhz, it's pretty much on par CPU-wise but the original SII GPU is miles ahead in terms of performance. ;)

HMMMM

What about the LG Nitro now available?.............
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Meilannu:
I would like to know when is fast enough fast enough? 2ghz processor 2-3 gigs of RAM, quadcore? When will people say this is fast enough for me?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] the2rrell:
this is America Jack........lol

fast enough?? i dont think thats possible.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
and what does it matter? fast enough for me will be instant opening of all apps zero lag....but as apps progress the chip set needs to so it can handle them. there will never be a phone that is completely current for more then 6 months with the way technology progresses.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Meilannu:
Just a question. The SR i have does that pretty much with the exception of opening the web and FB. Everything else opens without lag. Or at least i don't notice. And it's a stock device.

I took a long test drive of the Nitro today. The screen its not that great, IMHO. Resolution is, but colors just don't "pop" like Sammys SAMOLED+. That being the biggest difference, I'll stick with the SR. And dev support is getting there...patience.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Pirateghost:

its to expensive normaly i can get such sticks for under 20€

Archos Stick is 50€ over double so expensive
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Accessories] TjaXanK:
you can probably use any 3G stick, or almost... just it won't fit in the slot at the back, you will need an extension usb cable...
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Accessories] cajl:
impossible to use another stick on the Gne 9

well, not impossible... XDA got alot of 3g Sticks working on the Gen8... so it can be done, just a matter of getting the drivers right...

Ok so maybe this sounds crazy but it's possible... at least on HTC devices...

Check this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=970543

So that is a kernel for CM7, flashable by Recovery... I removed the module in the archive then I tried: replacing the kernel with Arc one and flash; modifying the makebootimg.sh; adding also Ramdisk.

So can we make this work on our Arcs too? It would be amazing, because we will be able to alternate and change the ROMs whenever we want :)

I've mentioned this at the end of a previous post elsewhere on these forums, I'm reposting to be more specific. I hope this is ok.

How do I get google to sync my calander (completely) to sgs2??.

It's a problem I've had for about a week; google won't sync my entire calander to droid. I've read a lot and it seems I'm not alone in this; yet I've tried all the work arounds, and still nothing.

Any advice?

Also, if I factory reset my device, will I have to root my sgs2 again? (I had done this prior to rooting and still didn't help google calander sync afterwards, it would only sync 1 month's worth of prior events).

Thanks

Have you enabled 'Auto-Sync' in Accounts and Sync settings?

After doing that within the same screen when you click your google account, have to checked 'Sync Calendar'?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s_m_a_s_h:
I've done that aswell.

It will sync only 30 days worth of calander entries.

I've factory reset, and done a whole host of other procedures that I found on forums; from pple that have had the same issue. I've even tried a few work arounds: getting other calanders to sync from/to google to then sync to droid, but none work.

Use Task Killer [Market] to free your Ram and Processor

or free up your phone memory by uninstalling some apps or by moving them to SD.

or [NOT RECOMMENDED] switch off your phone and then press and hold volume down + home + power button, this will reset your phone as at time when you had purchased, that means you will loose all your data and you will need to start form first.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hanjin1:
Now I've read about a problem of the hd2 having digitizer problems and that only a replacement will fix the unresponsive touchscreen issue. But why is it that when I can get my touchscreen to work that it works flawlessly until it goes to sleep? Then i have to continually wake and swype and sleep over and over until it responds. It just seems very weird that after it wakes that it never seems to have a problem. I'm using the miui rom right now and have set the screen to never go to sleep. So I want to see how long it will go without this problem. Has anyone else seen this happening with their phone as well?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rubledub:
ive had the problem with android before and there were a few different fixes ...

one fix was to turn off compatibility mode

another was kernel

ive also had the problem with wp7 ( nothing a few hard resets and patience couldnt cure )

either way good luck
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hanjin1:
well since my first post, i hadn't let the phone go to sleep once and it worked perfectly fine. so i decided to turn off compatibility mode and let it go to sleep.... and when i woke it and i slid my fingers down it actually worked. so far it's worked every time. why would compatibility mode mess up the touchscreen though?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] eave:
I get the same problem. I've used a ICS rom for a day or so and suddenly the lockscreen was unresponsive. I thought it was ROM problem, so I flashed Cyanogen 7, but the screen didn't respond as well... I flashed everything to stock (removing magldr and hspl) and the problem stayed... After several restarts the screen started to respond and now it works (sort of). The tricky thing is: sometimes when I go out from some app in android, the screen doesn't respond again. Locking and unlocking the screen fixes this, but only temporarily.

Did this ICS rom screw something (...hardware?!) or is it a pure coincidence that a few people encounters the same problem for the first time in such a short period of time...

And one more thing... my warranty expired 5 days ago... please help!!! :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Waspvl1:
I had this same problem with my phone before my warranty expired; before I flashed any android roms on it, and while it still had stock WM6.5. I called HTC customer support and they had me send in the phone for repair. They replaced the digitizer and I haven't had the same problem since. It was wierd because in my mind is seemed like a software problem because it would respond nicely as long as the screen was unlocked and the instant it was locked the response was very crappy, sometimes it took forever to unlock my phone. :mad: So it might somehow be a hardware issue :confused: :rolleyes:

I repair phone myself and i can say that i get A LOT of hd2's with this problem. For the most part it is the hardware because no matter what software you put on the phone it is just a matter of the luck you have to get it working. My hd2 broke 2 times b4 and it was always hardware. Htc must of messed up with the hd2 digitizer
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rubledub:
from what ive seen in photos of the leo mobo it looks like the connection for the screen/digitizer (not sure on hardware) is located right behind red end call/power button and from being mashed off,on,off,on,etc loosens/damages connection.

or is the hardware screen issue just a complete shot in the darks chance?

OH ... ive had the software issue (fixed as i mentioned earlier) AND unrepairable (with my limited tools and balls to physically tear into this badboy) hardware issues.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hanjin1:
well, it's been a few days and my phone still seems to be fine. it hasn't once locked up on me yet. i don't know why turning compatibility mode would fix this. or maybe the phones connectors were loose and are now miraculously back in at the same time i unchecked compaibility mode. the only bad thing was that this was happening the last couple weeks and i had given up and already ordered a sensation 4g. or well, guess i have 2 phones now
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cmacia06:

I also have this issue, therefore I just recently flashed my hd2 with Tytung's 4.0 ICS Rom. As expected, this didn't help very much..

I will be flashing my phone with w7 now, to see wether this is an android kernel bug / softare issue or if this relates to hardware.

Are you using a legitimate copy purchased from the market?....It uses a security check to make sure that you own it on the up & up. If you did purchase it from the market, make sure you're signed into your Google account before you try to open it, so that it can do it's license check. If that doesn't help you, email the developers, they have pretty good support. I've been using the app without issues for a couple of months now.
[HTC EVO 3D] Senorkabob:
Yep, it was purchased. Got it working though, all it took was me reflashing my ROM lol

[HTC EVO 3D] hockeyfamily737:
Glad you got it working. It really makes switching roms a breeze. One piece of advice for you though, take the phone rom "update.zip" and copy it to your computer for safe keeping. It's in /sdcard/bootmanager/phonerom. In the event that you ever have an sd card failure, you need that update.zip to boot back into your phone rom without going through extreme measures to recover your phone.
