I won't let sarcasm in but to be honest, iOS has never got any new UI unless minor improvements & modifications like folders, wallpapers, dock (maybe icons also but I don't know) and... that's all ! There are a lot of Launcher on android that may change the global appearance of your phone visual style. So far I know, iOS doesn't.

I'm sure this fragmentation of Android was definitely not what Google had in mind when they created android.

Their sales have exploded, but then again, there were no real questions about non-updates until recently.

I'm wondering how many people there are out there, like me, who have purchased their first android product thinking it will always be updated thanks to Google, only to wake up now and realize that's not true even though the device is capable.

I wonder how much of that sales explosion will be their first and last Android device.

Apple and possibly windows licking their lips right now I bet.

Just my opinion
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Saeen:
But still they got iOS 5 on 3GS and out i9000 is still stuck on GB :(

I like to see ICS on my i9000.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zbal:
I wouldn't say that I am disappointed by Android himself or by google.

I prefer Android over iOS, because it is open, have a large active community behind it. iOS is closed, even publishing a simple app is way harder on apple store than on Android market.

The point here is more about Samsung's policy.

Samsung is free to update (or not) their phones.

From a commercial point of view, they can not offer support indefinitely.

But for a variety of reasons that I mentioned above, I think it's a mistake not to update the i9000/i9001 to 4.0. i9001 is what, 6 months old?

The Nexus S is very close to the i9000, most of the drivers are probably the same, and so the resources that Samsung needs to invest to update the i9000 are very limited. But they wave Android 4.0 as an argument to sell more S2. Imo they should focus on hardware rather than software to seduce consumers with their new products. And they should take care of their actual customers. They do awesome phones, but there are also other manufacturers with great phones. Support is something that can make a difference.

It seems that choosing an official Nexus phone, whatever the manufacturer is, is only way to have a long-term software support atm. Samsung should take example on google...

Today I played around a little with a Windows 7.5 phone. Honestly, it was looking very smooth and I liked the UI a lot. Also, from what I understood, the next Windows Phone version, version 8 that is, will be the exact same Windows as the one running on our laptops and PCs...

Don't get me wrong, I love Android and the Nexus S is a very nice phone indeed, but right now, I'll definately wait for Windows 8 phones to come out.

They only say that the kernel will be very simular.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] androidder:
I really don't know what the fuss is all about ?

Even if Samsung doesn't give out the update , people can still use custom ICS based roms.

Who on xda ever uses stock rom ??

If they would be using stock , then i think they wouldn't be on xda

---------- Post added at 08:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:15 AM ----------

It won't be exact , atleast technically speaking the kernels will vary for the PC and a handheld.

But from what i've heard the current windows 8 being developed is being optimized for touch screens as well as the traditional keyboard/mouse.

Looks like windows is going the tablet way

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Black Rose:
My phone is only 8 months old and is still under warranty.

I still use stock ROMs and just root them.

XDA is a great resource for all Android users, whether they want a full blown custom ROM or just want some tweaks.

You go on to any other Android site and ask a question, they all end up pointing to XDA, because this is where the real Android knowledge is.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
U can flash it again or install superuser from market.

If u can't use apps then, ur phone is really not rooted.

But the apps just asking for permissions,so it just can be the missing superuser ;)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
Hmm crazy.

1) U tried to flash via odin?

2) If also doesn't root device, reflash ur Rom.

Think there must be a fold in system then, which let not root.

Go in "mount & storage" and format system there. Then flash Rom again.

If also no luck u have to wipe all!

But think with a clean system and reflash rom, at least it should work.

Much success!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranwej:
I'm owner of the SGS2 and i want to replace my phone with NOTE, but only if video playback with "crop zoom mode" is supported (it isn't is SGS2, so it's uselles for watching full HD films :( ).

Please test some video file (divx or mkv downloaded from web) in STOCK VIDEO PLAYER (this is important, because stock player use hw acceleration only) and try zoom modes.

SGS2 have only "stretch zoom mode" with HW acceleration, i'm affraid that NOTE will have the same issue..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netboy:
Just tried it out, didnt see a crop zoom option. Only options I saw was normal, stretch and fit to screen.

Doesnt MX video use HW acceleration? I use it and dont have any problems playing HD videos.

Yeah I was just about to say, just use MX video. It's better in many ways really.

MX video player have support for HW acceleration... But if you can't use crop zoom mode in stock player, it will not work in any other player (yes it will work with SW acceleration, but try to play 1080p in SW mode). This is driver related, just try it and you will see...

Thanks for the test anyway.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] connelhooley:
Hi, my Nexus S's on button has pushed in and will no longer work, I took the battery in and out to turn it off when I was out and luckily it turned on when I plugged it into the mains when I got home. I've set it so the screen is always awake when on charge to stop the screen locking. The problem I have is that I have rooted the phone. Will Samsung just send me it back and say the warranty is voided or will they repair the hardware fault and let me off with may be resetting the phoned and unrooting it?

Also is there any way for me to unroot it my self? Every guide I see says that you need to turn the phone on and off to do this and obviously I can't :(

Any advice/help would be great! Thanks

Might be better off considering getting an Infuse off craigslist than getting a digitizer for ~180.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] skatin707:
Buy a $300 phone over a $150 digitizer? That doesn't make much sense.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
I think digitizer installation and everything comes to about ~180. And you can get an Infuse for like 250. You can sell yours for parts for about 150 or so, and maybe spend another 100 for a phone off craigslist.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] crash822:

[Samsung Infuse 4G] skatin707:
I've got no problem putting it together. I replaced iphone screens for most of my coworkers. I've just never done it with a samsung phone, hence instructions are needed.

I don't see the point in spending $150 more. Infuses are still going for the $300s on craigslist.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] theraffman:
Selling yours for parts will get you about 150, add another 150 to that (the price you would spend on the digitizer plus glass kit) and get one off craigslist. You'll spend about the same amount, plus you won't have to deal with the hassle of the install.

I've heard that the glass it's bonded to the digitizer and therefore is a pain to swap the glass only... This phone is not as easy to work on as the iPhone...that's for sure.

Good luck

[Droid 2 Global General] Mimis_69:
Hello, my friends Droid 2 Global keeps turning off by itself after we sbf to stock. When we turn it on it only lasts about 10 seconds so it makes the phone unusable. when we power it on, it goes to the bootloader and stays there. Sometimes it actually boots up but turns off by itself after 10 seconds. Also we can't enter recovery as it just goes into the bootloader automatically.

The top of the bootloader says:

Bootloader

D0.11

Err:A5,69,35,00,2F

In the middle the bootloader says:

Battery OK

OK to program

Connect USB

data cable

Any suggestions on what we should do?

Did you flash CM7r2 hboot via fastboot? I guess that because you are on hboot version 6.93.1002. If yes, did you make sure you downloaded / flashed the CM7-version of Cool3D?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
