Seems like OP is jelly and wants to feel better about his sgs2.

Here are some more nexus pros:

ICS

Faster updates

Nfc chip

Considered the best android phone to date by all reputable reviewers
[Galaxy S II General] Deleted member 4421188:
Also has green tint. Worse battery. Worse camera. Worse HD recording according to those "reviewers"

FM radio, etc etc.. only thing the nexus has going is software updates and bigger (albeit worse) screen.
[Galaxy S II General] nicholaschum:
I do not really like justifying purchases, but I do not like the Galaxy Nexus because of one reason:

There is no Micro SD card slot.

That kills it for me, all my Gameloft games already fill up my SGS2's internal SD, and I need space for my music and videos, so I'm sorry, I'm not willing to make that compromise.

Galaxy Nexus: 16gb or less

Samsung Galaxy S II: 16gb+32gb = 48gb (Y)
[Galaxy S II General] Gnarfsan:
I would buy the galaxy s 2. It's better value for the money if you flash a nice ROM IMO.

Or wait for the S3. It's gonna be awesome :-)
[Galaxy S II General] komsa:
.........tried galaxy nexus in mediamarkt,nothing special,it's not faster and pretty as my i9100,looks even cheeper.I wouldn't trade for nexus(my opinion) :)
[Galaxy S II General] vcosmin:
that's the biggest Up for Nexus compared to any samsung phone.

here this samsung, somebody is capable of posting updates, not like you...
[Galaxy S II General] ctomgee:
This amuses me because of who manufactures the Galaxy Nexus. The OS is updated directly by Google, but still.
[Galaxy S II General] Yumunum:
Speaking of search buttons... The GS2 has one. It's kinda handy
[Galaxy S II General] ctomgee:
Eh? Is this a statement or question?

If you asking if it has one, or if you are saying it DOESN'T have one, then you're right; the international GS2 (I9100) actually doesn't have one, exactly. At least, not a dedicated search button, like a lot of other Android phones.

You have to long-press the Menu button to get search. This should work in all contexts. I just tried from Home screen, in the Gmail app, the Email app, and the browser.
[Galaxy S II General] POLO_i780:
Galaxy SII any day, it is the best Android...until GSIII arrives :D
[Galaxy S II General] 2dmaxhtc:
You guys still on this just go buy a nexus already
[Galaxy S II General] blunted09:
lol, i believe there is a much more alive and busy thread in the nexus forums with the same question.
[Galaxy S II General] mr mystery:
Having played with the Nexus it is not worthy enough to get rid of my GS2, however; if i were out shopping today for a new phone I would choose it over the GS2 for the updates and ICS.

Can't wait for ICS
[Galaxy S II General] zeotrope:
i was about to get the nexus, until i started reading threads about it's GPU. its a faster clock than the one in the nexus s but it seems n64oid isn't really running smoothly for anyone, and that's something i use a LOT.

that was the clincher for me, went with the sgs2. couldn't be happier with it.

of course this will all come down to personal opinion, everybody just needs to decide for themselves which one they like better... there isn't going to be a completely objective "this one is better than the other" for these two phones.

I noticed that the market doesn't let download apps like NFL mobile. NHL mobile, face book and other apps. I know that devs may just not want ot make their apps for my phone but I already had Facebook on my phone back in October 2011.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyle1745:
Anyone have a side case with a solid belt clip that they are using with a Diztronic (TPU-cases)?

I have been trying the pocket and shirt pocket but so far its driving me nuts. I think I need to go back to a belt holster but I like my current case so im looking into holsters like this:

http://www.shopandroid.com/ecolife-hydro-side-case/4A120A8418.htm

The issue I have with many of this style is the poor belt clip lacking something from the bottom to keep it from sliding off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waylo:
Verizon sells one. Back before the LTE version came out, I walked into a local store with my GSM version and had them pull out whatever accessories they had that could work.

It's the biggest generic one they sell, ~$20. It's got a clip, not belt loops. I have a Diztronic TPU case on mine, and it stretched the case quite a bit, but at least it fits. The salesperson had a RAZR with a case, and her's also just barely fit (they're almost the same height).

I personally am looking now at the plastic holsters where you can snap in the cased phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SouthernEvo:
Seidio makes really good holsters that sometimes can accept other cases on them . The draw back is Seidio is very proud of their cases and holsters . Im sure there will be cheaper alternatives coming out shortly .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waylo:
There's a nice thread on this forum that summarizes 4-5 different holsters. The Seidio one is about $25 or so, without the case even. There's a real cheap $7+ one from htcpedia, which I have incoming, but reviews have not been good =P.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LeCore:
the siedio surface holster fits a tpu case pretty well. i added some "shims" to tighten it up some using the loop part of velcro on the bottom retainer tabs of the holster and it fits perfectly.

it's actually my current combo that i'm using.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] apapousek:
Hello All,

I just bought a Galaxy Player yesterday and wanted to root. Okay, I thought, to XDA I go. It seems the general consensus here is to use SuperOneClick.

While the SuperOneClick method may work for most people running Windows, it's fairly annoying for those in the Linux and Mac crowd. It sometimes may work after installing the correct mono application and libraries, but that's quite a bit to download.

So, I thought it'd be nice to have only one thing to download, extract, and run the root all of the Galaxy Players on all platforms.

Anyway, I based this root on DooMLoRD's easy rooting toolkit. It uses the zergRush exploit, and will install Busybox, su binaries, and the Superuser apk. It should run on Linux, Mac, and Windows fine.

Does NOT work with Android 2.2.x, upgrade to 2.3.x using KIES.

Needed:

Either:

A Linux or Mac computer with adb installed and in the path (executable from terminal by typing in 'adb')

For Macs, I recommend using Homebrew to install. Install Homebrew, then type

brew install android-sdk

or

A Windows computer

The rootme files (available in tar.gz or zip)

::Mod edit::

Try this link http://www.mediafire.com/?hixwwt1bes9hmiu

Extract:

On Linux/Mac: tar -zxvf rootme.tar.gz in a terminal, or using a graphical utility

On Windows: Just use 7z, or the built in extraction tool (or whatever floats your boat)

Run:

Linux/Mac:

Open terminal and go to the root directory:

cd root/

Make rootme.sh executable:

chmod +x rootme.sh

Execute:

./rootme.sh

Windows:

Open up cmd (Using CTRL+R or from Vista/7's start menu)

cd to the "root" directory

Run runme.bat (You may have to run cmd as Administrator, depending on your version of Windows)

Linux 32: unknown

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] G.I.Geoff:
Very good. Liking this. But to the stupid comment about not moving up from windows? Windows seven is great. it is my favorite operating system. With Linux falling slightly behind. It's the people who hack from OSX that confuse me. I used one. Was given one as a gift. And sold it after a month. Some operating systems really blow.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] apapousek:
I personally prefer it in this order: Linux > Mac > Windows. Anyone who uses Windows for "hacking" is foolish. Linux has the best compilers, and the best command shell. Mac is able to use these technologies as well. If you just learned a bit more about computers, you'd know this. Anyway, this is a dev thread, not a flame war.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] G.I.Geoff:
To tell the truth I despise Mac. And all you gotta do is look and. There are great compilers for both Linux and windows. I still put windows as my favorite. Linux barely behind it. And don't tell me to learn more. I build computers. and I study them. So honestly from my informed opinion, windows is the best. lol, but this is very off topic. Lol I'm not trying to flame

There are, to my knowledge, no toolchains for Windows capable of building Android, and I don't think any sane person ever tries to compile a Linux kernel using cygwin + codesourcery for Windows.

If you want to do Android development, Linux is the way to go. Linux is the first-tier supported platform for AOSP. MacOS is doable but often has all sorts of weird "gotchas". Windows is completely unsupported for any sort of Android platform work.
