The new toshiba tab at270 7.7 should come out somewhere in june, same screen but tegra 3, should i wait?

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] regius:
Since we're talking about a few weeks I would wait just to get a hands-on with the new toshiba, and decide then.

I have the Tab 7.7 and it is definitely a great device. I still can't get used to type on an onscreen keyboard that's why I am still using my DZ as my mobile office.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Ciddy:
If I compare my SGS 2 to the Transformer Prime, the SGS 2 with the previous gen Exynos does everything the Prime does, and does so "snappier". I.e. installing/upgrading apps, the TP grinds to a halt until the install is complete, whereas there is barely any slowdown on the SGS 2. Both munch through 1080p video no problems. I have yet to see any application on the tablet to actually require all the CPU power the Tegra 3 offers, and if it's about watching a movie on the go, both can do it well.

The snappyness should not be defended by reasoning that the TP has to drive more pixels, after all, it's got way more horsepower too!

Now if Samsung finally put out that missing ICS update for the 7.7...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kevinl86:
Hey guys, I've been using the iPhone since 2007 when they first came out and now I'm putting down my 4S and switching over to the Skyrocket and i'm very excited to do so. I've been on this forum reading up for a couple weeks now trying to familiarize myself with the modding etc. My phone should be coming in today so I have a couple quick questions.

First off, I really want to skip gingerbread and goto ICS but I have never learned an android phone and the workings but it shouldn't take me too long to get used to it. Should I keep GB a while and get used to it then make the switch?

Second, I was thinking about going straight to SKY ICS but it looks like it's not 100% worked out and I do want a fully functioning phone. Should I flash to SKY or pick another more stable build of ICS?

Any suggestions would be great!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
I always come back to GB. All the Ics are pretty stable, but I like my bln, kernel tweaks, and 100% working.

There is also a small possibility that the Ics leaks are causing bricks. None that I know of for the skyrocket yet, though. They have been having problems with the note and various other models.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] OFWGKTADGAF:
from just the pure OS's workings i think ICS would be easier to get used to. though samsungs stock ICS doesn't look all that different from gingerbread.

None of the ICS ROMS are 100% stable but a lot work really well and have mostly everything (aside from a few small bugs) working perfect.

I'd say read around for about a week or so on the exact procedure on how to root, install cwm, install roms, and ect. Then when you are more comfortable working with the software and your phone go ahead and flash.

As far as which rom, SKYICS is very fast and very stable, just about as good as you can get with the stock samsung ICS. and it has various speed tweaks as well as S Voice (Like Siri but not as good) from the Galaxy S3 and also the TouchwizUX Launcher.

Theres also CM9 (Which I use) Which, instead of being samsungs ICS, it looks exactly like Stock Google ICS (The one that comes with the Galaxy Nexus)

It is also very fast, and looks amazing, i think much better than samsungs ICS.

And you can also get TouchwizUX and S Voice on CM9 once you get settled in with android and learn how to move apks.

All in all. its up to you. Do some reading for a while, learn everything you can, and then Try as many roms as you like and see what works good for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kevinl86:
Both are great replies thanks guys. I definitely need to play around with some of the tools and familiarize myself with everything. I need to find the best backup programs/music programs/ etc and get used to those. I have all my contacts from my iPhone synced with Google contacts so I should be able to sync it with my Skyrocket once it comes in. I really would like S-Voice so I'll most likely go straight to SKY ICS once I get better with the phone, I don't want to eff anything up. The iPhone was pie to jailbreak. It looks like there's a bit more things involved with the android phone in terms of rooting/permissions/flashing and so forth. Will have to dig deeper. I've read the noob guide but it doesn't make a ton of sense until I get the phone in my hand lol.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kevinl86:
^ Haha good stuff! Me and my lady are both on 4S right now until my Skyrocket comes in. She is upset I'm getting a new phone already but she will be jealous I'm sure and want one after she plays around with it.

Yeah and I used to be one of those fanboys, I got her into the iPhone. I just think it's time to graduate into something an adult should use and isn't so locked down. I'm getting tired of squinting at the damn 3.5" screen and having to follow apples rules.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:

Yeah I'd have to agree with you there. She LOVES her white 4**** to death haha.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] OFWGKTADGAF:
I used to have an iPhone and I do like the app ecosystem better, and it does look more polished. But the skyrocket beats it in everything else I can think of. But yeah. Being in high school the iPhone is more of a flashy accessory... everyone thinks iPhones the best. Until I show them what the skyrocket can do of course ;P

I'm glad you finally came to your senses...;)

Welcome to Android.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] taranis17:
I came from the iPhone 4 about 6 weeks ago and immediately started digging around on the web for info on Android and landed here.

I stuck with 100% stock for about a week before taking the plunge into rooting. Did a lot of reading on here because I didn't understand the terminology (CWM, Flash, TiBU, ODIN, et. al). Once I felt comfortable, I went through the process and had no issues.

Ran like that for a couple of weeks, but the dev section drew me in. :D Before long I was researching ROMs, and gravitated to SkyICS UCLE4. Read about 20 pages into that thread before chickening out. ;)

THEN I found the ICS 4.0.4 ODIN one-click thread. More reading.... Decided to go for it. Held my breath, re-read the instructions for the 50th time and clicked start.

Worked perfectly. No glitches in the process, no "wth did I just do?" :)

So I ran with that for another week, but that SkyICS thread was getting bigger, with people raving about battery life and smoothness... like a moth to a flame.

So I spent three days reading all 190+ pages in that thread (or whatever it's up to now).

Just last night, decided to go for it with base 3, update 7 of SkyICS.

I've almost memorized the instructions, BUT it paid off. My SR is running Seanz ROM and I couldn't be more happy with it. Nailed it on the first try - no glitches, no reflash, no problems other than setting the lockscreen wallpaper, which I couldn't give two rats' sh**s in the rain about - and its a known problem anyway. Who cares.

My first suggestion (and one that's repeated ad nauseum here) is read, read, read. Take it slow. Read the instructions for whatever you want to do repeatedly until you really get it.

My "n00b" advice: Get the phone, tinker with it, set it up how you like it, then research how to root it and back it up (your apps, your data, your entire ROM). Make multiple, off-phone backups in case you fudge something. Then learn how to restore. Then TEST restoring to your backups. That's your first hurdle!

Once you have that confidence in your backup & restore process, you'll feel a lot better about looking at the ROMs available and picking the one to suit your needs. Read the feed back, make mental notes, and decide whether the risk is worth it to you.

Personally, I owe seanscreamz a beer or three. ;)

Good luck! :o

(sorry for the book, but hey, it's my first post here.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kevinl86:

Welcome to Android! Thank goodness you don't have to use that dreadful iTunes anymore. Remember, you can change your launcher if you don't like the UI, I use launcher pro, but if you go ICS, try apex launcher.

I talked the girl friend into Getting and iphone a few years ago when i was still blind.

Well she finally got sick of my iBashing and realized that the iphone was a piece of **** and now shes laying next to me playing on her Galaxy Note. And yes ive already rooted and flashed a rom on it:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rebel1699:
I also came from iHell to the Skyrocket back in November. Trust me, you will never look back. Nice to have something as simple drag and drop without having to mod. Anyhow, SkyIce is a VERY stable Rom and I very much recommend it. It has turned my device from kick ass to freaking unreal. The only drawback for me with ICS atm is no overclocking as of yet. But still, not a big deal at all. Welcome to the Android way of life! I'm sure you will be here a very, very long time. IF you ever have any questions with flashing, dont hesitate to shoot me a PM. I would be more than glad to help! IT is an amazing community that you have come to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Kevinl86:
Wow this forum is VERY helpful, I appreciate all the feedback and will take everything into consideration. My phone came with a power skin which I use to charge the phone at night because it's so redic big I can't use it on a day to day.

I got the phone yesterday and played around with gingerbread for a bit. Then I came across the 4.0.4 ICS Leak here http://androidupgrade.net/att-samsung-galaxy-s2-skyrocket-sgh-i727-upgrade-to-android-4-0-4.html

So I took the plunge and now I'm running on ICS and it's very much stable and much better than gingerbread I think. I may run this for a bit to figure out how to root and get backups working I'm such a noob and I hate asking dumb questions so I'm going to try to learn as much as possible before asking stuff. Thanks again guys!

I also just got done installing CWM Recovery/Rooted/Busy Box! BTW Apex Launcher is sweet!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Wickidmasshole:
What features do you miss from the iSuck?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] whosgotlag:
The display and battery life probably.

I *JUST* rooted my device (first time), and installed CM9 alpha3, so I'm fully cognizant of the boner Android can give techies. But the bashing of iPhone (and all subsequent clever substitutions you guys have thought of) make this community look like a bunch of five year olds. Just relax guys, the iPhone is not a bad phone by any stretch of the imagination, it's for people who don't care about the nuances of their phone.

But seriously I still do love Apple products I just really like having the customization and rights that an android phone user has.

[Galaxy 3 General] vleutmans:
Hi all,

I noticed on my i5800 (WIFI only, no data/3g) that when the phone is on standby, and you arrive home it doesn't reconnect to your home WIFI automatically (still on standby).

I had this issue on kyrillos 9.6

I suspected the deep-sleep mode had to do with it, so here's what I changed to get it fixed.

in build.prop :

pm.sleep_mode=1 (kyrillos setting)

change to

pm.sleepmode =2

This helped my issue.

Maybe this can lead to some more battery drain, but I find it more important that WIFI reconnects automatically when phone is on standby.

At first I thought the problem was caused by wifi supplicant scan, but even after the timer value WIFI didn't reconnect, so that wasn't the cause.

Maybe I can help some people on custom roms with this.

(edit) still not completely solved.....work ongoing...will report soon.

Br.
