the good thing is all these phones are the same with only a few minor differences....but these are differences that rooting solves! like how we can overclock, but when Samsung does it, its a new device! lol! we just need some CM9 love and all this will be irrelevant, as we will be having the latest and greatest SOFTWARE (more important!!!) Dual-Core is really unnecessary until ICS

oh yea, and Quad core??? why the hell do we need that many?? I dont see how playing hardcore games on a phone is better than playing on a gaming console with a controller? How much faster can these phones get?? lol
[Android General] ArcticWolf91:
And then you're going to regret buying it when the GS3 comes out. Just wait for that, that's what I'm going to do.
[Android General] chiensibut:
+1 i wish they just slow it down a little like 6 months/1 phone :D
[Android General] Jjday7:
Android is out of control. New phones monthly and lack of support for older phones. Google seems to not care. What's even worst is all these phones all run gingerbread. You buy the newest and greatest and you get last years software.
[Android General] mettleh3d:
Personally, the Snapdragon has left a sour taste. Maybe its TouchWiz's fault. Thankfully the SkyRocket, the HD and the Note are all Snapdragon - pushing more pixels with the same CPU = good luck with that. Ergo, not that disappointed.

Have you tried Dead Space? T_T omg how can a game that looks THAT good be on a phone seriously?? Yeah 2 cores seem plenty sufficient; the PS vita (shoot I should look up the specs) has 512mb RAM afterall!
[Android General] DavidXSU:
I'd still rather take an i9100 if I was in AT&T, for the support.

Lol.. xbox360 has 512 mb ram and ps3 has 256mb ram(512 total, 256 is set aside for video only)

i can run crysis 2(which is a crappy console port to the pc) with around 700mb ram usage, that's with the highest resolution and settings possible, i'm sure that'll easily stay under 400mb if i want it to.. in anycase.. what matters is the processing power of the cpu and the gpu
[Android General] Rekzer:
I just want a fast phone with CM support. Im tired of watching devs give up on phones just for hte newest deal and leaving half finished projects. Its rather depressing cause i assumed id have CM or something..but they arent even saying anything.
[Android General] Simer03:
yeah i dont really understand why CM is silenced when it comes to this phone.....wasnt there a report or something that Cyanogen himself just got a Tmo S2?? I thought so.......i actually asked him on twitter and he said that he was using a Nexus S and a "mystery phone"...but never said what

this is why i got rid of my G2X! lol...i figured this phone would get some love! Damn you Nexus! :p (or damn you Tmobile for going with the Snapdragon, as if we'd ever actually get 42 mbps)
[Android General] AznDud333:
patience people..it's coming..
[Android General] :
Because cyanogenmod is very hyped. Also it keeps people from asking for etas all the time. Asking anything about development for a phone is an eta to cyanogen team. They release when they release. He probaly gets those questions all day everyday. https://twitter.com/#!/ciwrl/status/143466669103259649

My advice either just sell your phone and wait.

REGARDLESS ...I wrote this thread because this IS absolutely ridiculous AT&T has like three galaxy s2 phones and like allgamer previously said the At&t is getting the DAMN GALAXY NOTE AS WELLLL...Im just so pissed because this new skyrocket has such better pixelation density...I just wish our phone was shown this much love

Am I wrong here to be this upset? I mean cmon

Edit: new phones come out every other month Literally,.and I dont understand why att gets yet another skyrocket(as if they need it) with the same specs as our but yet better density and it just reallyyyyyy chaps my ass!

Unless I am mistaking the galaxy note will be in the same boat as us since only qualcomm and not the exynos processor. Since they are both lte devices the only other processor i know that has lte is T.I

I've never understood why att and vzw get the great phones either.

My first phone was the Cliq XT so I've been through a bunch of similar stuff. I then had a defy which was a awesome phone with cm. I sometimes want to just get another defy until we have a stable cm. But I do love the gs2 and I know great things are coming so I'm thankful for the peeps who are making great things happen.

This situation is what almost drove me to wm7 and it still heats me up at times.

This is news from the CES show, its to show future models. This phone is at least 6 months away which is par for the course. New models come out every 6 to 9 months.

I never understood that either, all other carriers get great phones, while we get.. prices? I guess that balances out?

[Android General] :
It will have screen issues Samsung doesn't know how to properly port their display drivers to others soc the phones will still have the same screen problems others have.
[Android General] AllGamer:
even exynos based soc have the same problem

it has to do with their new SAMOLED manufacturing plant

the original in Korea made perfect screens, but all the new phones are getting the screens from the new factory that has poor calibration

[Android General] backpackla:
Sounds like you guys are in the know about new phone rumors. I have been searching but haven't been able to find much (I'm still pretty new to the smartphone scene).

I'm on T-Mo too so, as I'm sure you're all aware, I don't have that many options for a new smartphone. Too bad I can't use an unlocked SGS2. AT&T's version apparently doesn't have the right band (1700 mhz) to utilize T-Mo's 3g/4g networks :(

From what I understand, the SGS2x is a bigger, heavier, slower version of AT&T's SGS2 (with worse battery life too!), but what's a T-Mo customer to do? I was going to wait, but it sounds like the next best option after the SGS2x won't be here for another 4-6 months.
[Android General] Bl00dRunzC0ld:
I don't think it's so much Google as it is the manufacturers. They're the ones pumping out a new device every month. The lack of support can also be attributed to the carriers. They don't want you to have an "old" phone running the newest OS. They want you to upgrade.
[Android General] TheMrRoxtar:
Yeah and they always want you HAVE THE.NEWEST PHONE....when I had gone in to Tmobile and mentioned the new skyrocket coming out for att they immediately said o well our galaxy s2 is so much better and faster feeding me all these stupid lies I knew were completely untrue. I know its a great phone but they were telling me ours is better in every department. Even though I had the galaxy s2 they knowingly still tried to sell me one. Hahaha saying I could use the other line for work or a family member lol riculous ****. Its always the newest and fastest every other damn month with phones.

[Android General] blitzer320:
This confuses me even more than when they released the skyrocket. From a business standpoint wouldn't it be a better investment of money to only manufacture, sell, market, support one phone. Just seems like Samsung is wasting money because they are splitting their profits between three phones while also making some consumers of their three phones doubt their business going ahead. Maybe its just me but it seems like it would have been better to just market one phone if not one two one with LTE and one with exynos but both with the HD resolution. Just a thought maybe i'm wrong just seems like a waste of money for Samsung and the consumer. I being a huge android follower can see this is why Apple succeeds in the smartphone business because they spend all of their development time behind ONE phone. Not too upset because I refuse to buy a phone without an upgrade and I'm still sitting here on my Inspire, so i still have time to decide which phone I want.
[Android General] N8ter:
It took a 4s in the sprint store 5 minutes to load m.microsoft.com so color me impressed. Sprints 3G network is a waste of a smartphone unless you live in a WiMAX area. And that's assuming your phone has better than 4 hours battery life.
[Android General] Waddle:
I'm so confused. I got the normal gs2 on the week it came out and now there's going to be 2 new phones. It seems like u should never upgrade ur phone because there is just gonna be another better one.

[HTC Wildfire S] matt5eo:
Hey to all

I'm working on a new custom rom, the rom, btw the first Update seems to be finished, but now, I have a problem, because I can not make a flashable zip. I tried everything :(

What I need is to copy the /system to the system of the device, the /data and the boot.img.

It would be great if anyone can help me with this hugh problem^^

Thanks

ps. for CWM
[HTC Wildfire S] Gloris:
do you mean to flash your custom .img files to the phone?

not saying it's safe...because i've only done this with an official ROM.zip from the 2.3.5 RUU...

but if you turn on in boot mode (hold down vol - and power), select fastboot, then connect to pc via usb, you can use the following fastboot commands to flash the images directly

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

like i said, i've only done this with extracted official files from an RUU, so i won't guarentee that it is successful or even safe for other files :s

maybe i have misunderstood your post though?
[HTC Wildfire S] matt5eo:
Yes you missunderstud my Post, but no problem man, thanks for tying to help me, but i wanted to know how to creat a flashable zip to share it.. Without android kitchen.
[HTC Wildfire S] BigChillin:
First, I just googled ” how to make flashable zip cwm” and there was at least ten links right there. Secondly, while I respect that you're trying to learn, I personally wouldn't flash anything made by somebody that couldn't be bothered to google AND doesn't know how to re zip their files. Please be careful with what you release...
[HTC Wildfire S] matt5eo:
And you can tell me now how? You can't. I wrote seven update-scripts, the installation was allways successful but after seven min. The screen frezzes and the device revoots..

[Verizon Droid Charge] stevenjcampbell:
I'm using my third x2 which now is showing all the same problems as my past two.

Verizon offered me for $0 one of the three I mentioned.

I have 4g so the incredible 2 is a waste -EXCEPT- that I want to be able to install custom roms, which htc would be the best chances I guess?

I also want a shot at ics.. No idea of samsung cares. If I recall the original galaxy S had problems with no updates from samsung?

Helper choose?

How would you choose?

I need to be able to root and tether no matter what and vzw told me my data plan will be untouched.

Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
I don't think any of those phones is getting official ICS.

That being said, don't buy revolution it's a waste of time. Inc 2 and charge are good, but charge is better IMO. The charge is the best single core phone on Verizon. Jt and imnuts got the source fixed. Jt has ICS booting right now and imnuts is working on custom kernels. Galaxy s was fine in terms of updates except for fascinate so it was a Verizon issue. We got our gb OTA about a month after t bolt, so it is not a problem. Idk about ICS on inc but we should have cm9 soon.

Inc 2 is basically a smaller thunderbolt with no 4g and better battery life. I think they are close to getting ICS or have it already.

Your call but i would get the charge if i were you.

[Verizon Droid Charge] stevenjcampbell:
okay thanks. so the charge does have CM7/9 on it?

i am not used to an unlocked bootloader, being that motorola are practically as stubborn as apple on that respect.

i just want a "good" phone.

..

update

unfortunately after 50 minutes on the line with vzw this rep told me i could only upgrade to a droid 3 or Incredible 2.

He at first said I could not have the charge because it was 4g.

When i said "so you mean i can have the revolution?" he said yes and when i pointed out it was 4g he said no.

i am convinced they are lying badly.

frustrating. sorry for wasting your time.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
I would say inc 2 unless you would like that keyboard or lapdock/webtop. Motorola also has the best stock browsers.

When in fact they weren't defective at all, just a perception by the owner.

(note: I'm not talking about people who returned their primes because they didn't like them, rather those who wanted a replacement)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Evo_Shift:
I returned mine but not for the GPS issue. I returned it because the supposed best tablet display in the world had stuck pixels (a first for any LCD I have ever purchased) and the haptic motor didn't really vibrate...it simply made a ticking noise.

I then purchased two more and will keep one of them and return the third...hopefully unopened. If I have to return all three I will probably wait for the new Prime or a similar competitors product. I honestly do not care about brand loyalty at all (other than I want an Android device). I only want a product that works (for how I intend to use it) and is built well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
After that new report about the new prime..probably a sh*t ton.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] infinitemethod:
I need a replacement for the 8 dead pixels and the right side of the tablet that is loose. the GPS doesn't bother me and other than those two issues I love this thing. I just hope they get some in stock before the 24th (my return date to Best Buy) or I'll just go without a tablet for a while.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheKricket:
The only reason mine hasn't been returned yet is because there aren't any in stock to fulfill an exchange.

Luckily - I have until February 3rd to return (thank goodness for Amazon). I'm going to give ICS a shot to see if it changes my mind.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] generositus:
just got back from Best Buy returning mine :(

it had a few stuck pixels I couldn't get unstuck and BB of course had nothing to exchange it for so I just returned it.

gonna just wait until the champagne comes out and after a few production runs so hopefully everything is a bit more refined or consistent.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kbtolentino:
My prime vibrates but barely there. I was looking at the settings for the "Vibrate on Touch" feature and turns out it was already checked. I'm going to guess that my Prime is defective?

Also... my Wifi is also very weak. My laptop would have a full signal while the prime will get a low signal and disconnects when I try to change my sitting position.

In y'alls opinion, should I RMA it or just get a refund and buy another one? Thanks in advance!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fenturi:
" just a perception by the owner" Humm well I just returned mine. had it for a week before ICS and i was fine with it, even with GPS and Bluetooth issues. However once ICS hit it.. it was working great... then the REBOOT started. if a Device reboots itself over and over is that "not defective?"

I'll be taking mine back to best buy this weekend. 2 large grouping of stuck on pixels and 2 large other groupings of bright/dim pixels. Some I see when the screen is dark, some I only see when the screen is bright. Very displeased.

I returned mine, but I have my original TF as a backup so it's no big deal. I can imagine those who don't have a spare tablet probably will hang on to it.

Hey I was wondering why whenever I make a phone call my bars indicating signal decrease to 1 bar or none and my 3g symbol goes awayt any suggestions?

Currently on calkulins 1.8 rom,

El29 modem and i do update profile and prl atleast once a week, but no matter what modem or rom I am on this happens regardless
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bielinsk:
3g goes away cause you cannot run data and voice at the same time.

As for it going down to one bar? That could be because you are no longer connected to 3g.

Are you having a problem?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Compusmurf:
Correct.

When you're on a call, you're using the 1x network and you're seeing the signal strength for 1x. When you're NOT on a call, you're seeing the 3G network and it's signal strength.

What I find REALLY odd is that for most folks, they see the opposite. 1x has stronger signal than 3G.
