[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] n0thingr3mains:
i just did the opposite! i bought a gsm note to use on ATT but it had several issues. had problems with the capacitive touch buttons not working after phone calls. the phone would also shut it self off randomly. i returned it because of those problems. if it wasnt for that it was a really cool phone. the extra screen real estate was nice for games and web sites.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] outsidah:
I'm not saying this because I have a Nexus, but I find it hard to understand how you find it just an average phone. The camera is about the only average thing about it, everything else runs so well in ICS which makes the experience as a whole so much more coherent.

The only thing I'd really wish for at the moment would be an LTE version for GSM carriers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
Yeah, I considered that, but ATT will drop the legendary Exoynos processor because it isn't compatible with LTE.

That and who knows how ATT will handle grandfathered unlimited plans that try to go to LTE. I simply don't trust them to let me keep it.

6mbps is plenty fast since I don't tether.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spovat:
to each their own but please list a few phones that you consider above average
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
Hello better phone with ICS in the pipeline? Wacom digitizer and all.

Different strokes, I guess. I've owned the Nexus One, Nexus S, SGSII, EVO. Pure google, while nice, ends up being modded to hell anyway by most, so it's not an issue for me personally. I don't like touchwiz, but that's fixable with launchers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] th0r615:
If the Note was going to be on Verizon I would have thought about it. If it gets a CM9 port then it could be a killer phone. My brother-in-law imported one for his AT&T line and I got to play with it. VERYYY NICE.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
I have nothing to prove to anyone. Just think the 2500 mAh battery, wacom digitizer and real-estate of the Note are worthy advantages.

Not going to launch into an I'VE FOUND THE JESUS PHONE debate. Most all modern phones are pretty close in performance/features anyway.

Just my preference. The Nexus is a great device, but not the absolute best ever. If it didn't have ICS, this forum would be lit up with endless *****ing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
If you don't have anything to prove then what was the purpose of creating this thread? If you want to sell your phone then go to the marketplace.

Market place link is here: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=476

You shouldn't need to make a thread to justify your decision. Cool, you're going to the Galaxy Note, good luck. The Galaxy Nexus forum will continue the way it is without you.

If you didn't want a debate about Galaxy Nexus vs. Galaxy Note, then just post up your ad in the marketplace and be on your way. Simple as that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ericshmerick:
This is a thread for discussion, not spam.

It's basically sold already, but thanks for the slap.

By the way, its not an ad. I simply mentioned it's available if anyone was interested, which several are so far.

An ad is a thread with the sole purpose of selling an item. This thread is not. Feel free to add to the discussion.

What are your thoughts on the Note vs. the Nexus?

Ok, so I feel that I've ruffled feathers. Will a mod please move this to the for sale forum so I can be a good senior member like I have been since 2006?

That way, XDA homeostasis is reached for all.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MMcCraryNJ:
There are rumors that the Note is coming to ATT early next year with LTE. Nice, right? Except there is one problem...

They are replacing the Exynos with a Snapdragon S3.

They also had to do this with the Galaxy S2 on T-Mobile because the Exynos chipset apparently has problems playing nicely with high speed networks such as LTE and T-Mobiles 42 Mbps HSPA+ network.

Will make it exceptionally difficult to dev for. And since it's basically a different device with a different SoC, kiss frequent and timely updates goodbye.

If the Note appeals to you, go for it. Just saying, aside from the bigger screen, a S3-verison Note doesn't seem to have any huge advantage over the Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AfroCreame:
I've had both. The note is a great device, but IMO the GN is better overall.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
I would of gotten a Note instead if it supported t-mobile, sigh.

I'm hoping by the time Note II comes out, samsung will have resolved the shortcomings of exynos' radios as well as samoled+ HD. I will jump all over that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] itsjusttim:

But I do love my galaxy nexus. As someone said, the only average thing about it is the camera
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 2842059:
Aren't you going from a big phone to an even bigger phone? That would drive me crazy plus the stylus is for the 80's.

But honestly? I've been tempted myself. The Note have NFC?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thiagodark:
dont you think that note is jut too big? i never got note in my hands, but by comparassions videos on youtube (everything vs note) i get a little scared about how big it is...

also, why do you guys need so fast network for a phone?! 6mb is not good enough? what are you doing that need so high speed? video calling?!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
This argument is so old.

People on sprint/verizon don't get 6mbps. It's 1mbps or 4G, which do you think people would obviously prefer (barring battery issues)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inline6power:
If I could get a note to run on Verizon I would order right away. Love my gnex but the note would be my new laptop/phone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thiagodark:
it's not an argument, it is a reasonable doubt, since we don't have lte south of the equator, but i get 4mb/s on h+ network and for me it is just fine...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zorak950:
Installed the official ICS release today and am loving it (though there are a few things I still need to get used to). So far I've only had one issue I haven't been able to find a solution to. The ICS People app includes an entry for "Me," a personal profile. I added my information to this, but I'm wondering if there's a way to also attach third-party accounts (Google+, Twitter, Skype, et cetera) to it, like I can do for my regular contacts. It doesn't seem to do so automatically, and there's no "Join" option in the Edit menu like there is for other contacts, so I can't imagine what the procedure would be.

Any thoughts on how to do this? Does such a feature even exist? It's not a big deal or anything, I'm just curious, and my obsessive side is bothered by not knowing. :P

Rice is hygroscopic, but you can also go to service and ask for something like sonic bath... When i get my old Nokia 6120 some fresh water ;p I took it to service and they use sonic bath on it (to get rid of water and moisture). Up to today, this phone is fully working after falling to real bath ;)

I think using hair dryer is endanger... also don't use microwave - your phoen will dead, but service shouldn't found answer why..

But after 20 minutes i get on well with it (hm, battery became 0%, but i charged it finally). Then... on SAME day i tried to made ext partition for apps on sd.. I forgot that is wiping all data on it... CRAP AGAIN! ;p

All was on holidays, far away from my home's stuff; only with netbook. But i've got copy of sdcard (7 days old...) and good fridge ;)

I know it looks crazy, but it is 100% real.

I've had the skyrocket since it came out. First in black then I exchanged out recently for the white. And on both devices, it seems whenever the screen times out and turns off, my wifi and 4g disconnect and I have to disable then and re-enable them to get them back on...

Anyone else running into this issue? Other than that, the phone is flawless.

It's completely stock by the way running 2.3.5
[Thunderbolt Android Development] playboy00786:
I managed to zip up the new radio from 2.11.605.9 - Baseband: 1.48.00.0930w_3, 0.01.78.0916w_3. I have already flashed on mine to verify it works and DID NOT remove my s-off or root. Just flash like any other radio. Enjoy.

These are safe to flash and simply just the radio files and are in no way associated with removing root or s-off.

Installing this radio update may prompt the 2.11.605.9 OTA - DO NOT ACCEPT/INSTALL THE OTA UNTIL SOMEBODY TEARS IT APART TO DEBLOAT AND OR REMOVES UN-NEEDED FILES. INSTALLING/ACCEPTING THE OTA RIGHT NOW MAY CAUSE YOU TO LOOSE ROOT AND/OR S-OFF.

If anybody wants to host the file go ahead because i dont know how much dropbox will let me get away with.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] tv31284:
I don't think it's removing s off. It does sound like the new OTA is being pushed to rom's using the older base though, and obviously if you flash that OTA you'll lose root and s off. In any case, I flashed this on cm7 and I still have s off.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] orkillakilla:
This WILL NOT do anything to your bootloader. I'm running the revolutionary s-off bootloader and have maintained it after flashing this. Ryanmo was just stating that flahing the radio triggered his phone to try to download the ota. Simply abort it and you won't have any problems.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] New_here:
Hi

I know this question has been asked before but i havent received a definite answer as yet and i would like to be cautious. I am planning to root my phone but i wiuld like to be able to revert back to stock if needed. I have an idea on the procedure of Unrooting from the guides. My only problem i am having trouble understanding is after i flash the stock rom back, i would also have to flash the stock kernel. The problem is the link i found that has the stock kernel is dead. Would i be able to back up my stock kernel before flashing a new rom and kernel?

Last question is are modified kernels functional with stock rom? For example i am thinking of first trying out synergy kernel. Would i experience any performance changes with just the kernel?

Thanks for the help
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JROCxvl:
I can tell you from personal experience with having to return one s2 x to Telus that there is no issue with reverting back to stock. just do a nandroid backup before flashing your ROM and kernel then you just need to find a stock recovery to flash. I can find mine that I used if you need it.

as far as kernel improvements go, I am really enjoying the ability to overclock. I get about 26 hours of moderate to heavy use using profiles with setcpu. Also bln is handy.

Since you are T989D I would recommend synergy kernel with Mr. X Telus ROM. That's what I an using and am loving it. it is very stable. I haven't even had one random reboot yet!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] New_here:
Thanks for the reply JROCxvl. I was planning on using the synergy kernel, was just worried about flashing back with a stock kernel as I was not sure if nandroid backup backs up your kernel as well. I thought I read it does not. I also wanted to ask about BLN. Using the synergy kernel with stock telus rom would work with BLN?

I can't believe your usage hours. Crazy. Does setcpu basically underclock your cpu when your phone is idle? And you can use setcpu with just a kernel change? I would not need to install a rom as well?

Thanks again for the help man.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TrojanSk:
First i would like to say hello :D and i would also like to thank you all for you're help and time. I am about to purchase a dell streak 5 tomorrow and from what i understand it comes with Streakmod 2.4.4(Clockworkmod) already installed on it. i am worried to have this on there because from what i here it causes massive battery drain issues, SOD, random reboot, death of sim card etc. my question is

1. If i purchase this phone and it does prove to have issues can i reset it back to 1.6 and then upgrade to 2.2?

2. If i can reset it back to default is it a differcult process? (i have never even rooted a phone) will i have to download a bunch of files and put them on sd card or can i just get to the hard boot menu and select a couple of things and bam its back to stock?

3. is it possible to brick my phone doing this

I apologize ahead of time if a thread like this already exists, i promise i did a search but i just couldn't find anything.

Thank you again
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
Can you ask the seller to install BB 360 before delivery? That is the latest retail ROM

No need to revert to 1.6, you can go to another Gingerbread or Froyo ROM without going to 1.6.

Read this and check out the links in my signature. Not hard for most people to mod their Streaks. It takes more than a factory reset to get back to stock.

Possible but not likely - read and folllow the guides.

Topics are stickied for a reason. There are a few in Streak development sub-forum you should look at and I already pointed you at the one in the general area.
