the problem is, a devs work is never finished. Look at the people whinging about JB... What happens when JB is on most S2's and the next android version is released?
[Galaxy S II General] :
That's the point. Nothing is finished, but by finished I meant stable and with known bugs fixed, with all planned features and stuff [at least most of it]

I'm stuck on this while compiling cm10, completely confused
[Galaxy S II General] alangrig:
That's why I've moved to Gnexus. No more hassle and pressure to devs.
[Galaxy S II General] beston94:
Thanks for letting us know.
[Galaxy S II General] Spiralzz:
That's why I'll move to the next nexus that comes out. I just hope it has a great hardware, something that competes with SGS3 and htc one x...
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
These big guns are here for business, not charity. You can't expect Nexus to have same/competitive hardware like S series. It will always be poorer. You're getting the software support instantly updated there, so you have to give up on hardware. The opposite thing for S series phones, great hardware but bad software support. One has to make a choice here, what's the priority, updated software or great hardware? To me, it's the latter one.
[Galaxy S II General] runedrune:
That's not necessarily true. What's wrong with the hardware? Like the Nexus S was pretty much the Galaxy S.
[Galaxy S II General] Adam Hui:
My bro.. but Galaxy Nexus has 5MP camera than 8 of GS2.. that was what confused me at the deal before I decided the h/w..:D
[Galaxy S II General] GalaxyGusta:
I'm too thinking about moving to the next nexus...

Samsung is just bad for now

I hope it will have expendable storage and a nice processor and than its only me saying bye to my s2
[Galaxy S II General] D4rKn3sSyS:
http://shutterskills.com/how-important-are-megapixels-in-your-digital-camera.html

I'm really sad buying S2 instead of nexus, but when I bought it, nexus wasn't on my city market
[Galaxy S II General] :
Yep. Now I want to sell my S II, after seeing what a Nexus is capable of. I better buy Galaxy Nexus now and wait for the next Nexus. The price is very good here, SIII is R$2000, SII is R$1700, Nexus is R$1300.
[Galaxy S II General] D4rKn3sSyS:
Rolling back to Galaxy nexus is a waste right now, there are already quad core phones. I'm just waiting next nexus, unless some noob ask me for exchanging his nexus by my s2... I would pull it from his hands :p
[Galaxy S II General] :
Well, I could wait for the next Nexus here in Brazil, if it doesn't take long. The Gnexus took something like 5-6 months to get here, so buying the Gnexus right now I would stay with it for 1 year. Sure, there are already quad-core phones, but there isn't no very big visual improvement of performance if you are coming from a high-end dualcore and even more a Nexus+JB.

codeworkx already stated that, and he still prefers his Nexus ;)
[Galaxy S II General] runedrune:
Megapixels say nothing about quality.
[Galaxy S II General] Adam Hui:
For that, so what the functions of MP? Did Sammy has redundat things to lying people?
[Galaxy S II General] runedrune:
Read the article posted above.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Exclusively, size. The only thing that differs 5MP and 8MP is the size, 8MP picture is bigger than a 5MP picture.
[Galaxy S II General] augustofretes:
No, just no. More pixels mean more detail, yes, it can be the case such as this isn't true, but only if the difference in the size of the individual pixels in the sensor is pronounced.

The Galaxy Nexus camera is really bad, the quality is just subpar (I know this first hand, I got myself a SGS II not long after it was launched and I got my girlfriend a Nexus).

The Galaxy Nexus is great, only two things suck: The camera and the GPU (thanks to the higher resolution and slower GPU many games which are smooth on the SGS II are laggy on the Nexus), the screen is better than the S II's screen, much better, but it pales against the HTC One X (but every mobile screen does).
[Galaxy S II General] :
Yes, it's just size. Consequently, more details. But let's make this 8MP camera a 20MP camera with the same sensors. Quality will suck, because those "details" won't be good processed. Now try to put some hardcore sensors in this 8MP camera. You will see less details, but you are going to see some amazing details that the 20MP camera with bad sensors won't get.
[Galaxy S II General] thomsch:
Maybe Samsung do something good and give us JB. Then everyone will be in love with their S2 again. We have to wait. First wait for Samsung I guess
[Galaxy S II General] :
Even if they do, we won't see much improvement ;) Just TouchWiz crap, no new features, no performance improvement, no butter.
[Galaxy S II General] thomsch:
Sorry, do you work in Samsung to know that?
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Does hardware mean only CPU and GPU and RAM :confused:

And no point in bringing up a two years old phone.
[Galaxy S II General] :
It's clear. Samsung is to lazy to make it much better. RIL is damn bugged, on AOSP and even Stock, lots of proprietary **** won't let JB fly, Yamaha/Exynos are one of the most painful things to develop. And I really think Samsung won't release JB to the S II. ICS took so long, 4.0.4 took so long and they even pull out the infamous mmc_cap_erase on the first 4.0.4, that codeworkx already reported to Samsung a long time ago and they didn't care, so bricking a lot of phones.

So answer me now. Do I need to work to Samsung?
[Galaxy S II General] thomsch:
Maybe they update the S2. We don't know. I'm sure that if they release JB, it will have the features of JB.

If they are not stupid and want to sucess with the S4, they are going to realease JB.
[Galaxy S II General] runedrune:
Who said it only means those things? Were those the only things the Nexus S and the Galaxy S had in common?
[Galaxy S II General] :
What they would update? Most of the changes is related to AOSP, so it wouldn't be applied to Tw.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
No, maybe there are other things in common, but afaik there was no FM Radio, external SD and Gorilla glass in Nexus S.

Besides, it's a two year old device, no point in bringing up something like it.
[Galaxy S II General] KeePeeR26:
Galaxy S III will get Android 4.1 soon Samsung test Android 4.1 for Galaxy S II :fingers-crossed:

http://www.sammobile.com/2012/07/20...oon-samsung-test-android-4-1-for-galaxy-s-ii/
[Galaxy S II General] Spiralzz:
No point in updating a two year old device? You're wrong. For people like me who are students and don't earn, we can't bug our parents to buy us a superb mobile every year, we rely on the manufacturers/developers to support the "two year old mobile" as long as the hardware supports it, or atleast for 2-3 years.
[Galaxy S II General] Archaic1881:
They will support the device, but who says that means porting it to a new OS version every time ? Why do YOU need them to bring JB to your phone ? Is there something JB does what ICS doesn't ? There is no point in updating to JB just for the sake of updating, they also put a lot of money in the development, so I would think (seeing it from their perspective) that thay will not release JB if the benefits are not clear.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
What do you mean? :confused: Have you read my post well?

Who was saying anything about 'software' upgrade?? :( We were talking about hardware ! ! !

Anyway, lots of students and schoolboys are here in this very forum, so I understand what you said.
[Galaxy S II General] OrrPenn18:
If not by upgrading the OS, how else is the device supported?
[Galaxy S II General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
the gnex is not bad at all for its camera. for low light performance, it was doing very well. look at objective reviews that do photo comparisons.

Furthermore, the GNex had a known camera bug issue where after AF was achieved, if you moved just slightly, it would completely mess up the AF. That should've been fixed in the 4.0.4 update, but for in no way is the GNex bad.

Finally, GPU only really matters if you play games all that much. I thought GPU would but I'm just a casual gamer. Angry Birds, Draw Something, that's enough. I like the SGS2 and its design, but when breaking it down, I held out SAMOLED+ instead of Pentile and a better GPU and camera, but in the end I don't think it was worth it.

Software defines what a phone can do. I waited until March before jumping on CM9 and it's likely another 3 months before we get a usable daily driver for CM10. In waiting so long what's the point? Nexus phones get on it SO fast. And even after I ran CM9, it took til when til the light sensor got fixed? I'm not blaming our devs at all. They've done a great job, but we have to do this everytime with a non Nexus phone. Is it worth waiting 3-4 months for a stable usable release? And then the next version comes out. We're always drooling for the next.

Why do you need light from electricity when you can use a candle?
[Galaxy S II General] LJE:
That's a **** analogy .

Light from electricity costs more then from a candle. If you can't afford your power bill using a candle will do what a light bulb will also allow you to do.

But I hope the S2 does get jb

Really, why is everybody upset about flashplayer not working, what do you need it for? I only use it for youtube and porn. Youtube has its own app anyway and porn... yeah, better on the pc anyway so whats flash really needed for on android?

Samsung? Never again! Waiting for the next Google Nexus.

[Galaxy S II General] $wissdroid:

[Galaxy S II General] augustofretes:
It's objectively subpar, you're just a victim of sample bias, you just read and accept as true what you feel more comfortable with, for example, it's quite bad on low light, Anandtechs' words:

"The Galaxy Nexus’ camera is definitely not the best around, but if you do a lot of outdoor shooting in good lighting environments, the Galaxy Nexus is competent enough to get the job done. It’s really only in low light scenarios indoors or at night where its CMOS sensor really shows its age and can struggle, especially if you shoot without flash. It is very confusing why the Galaxy Nexus includes such a lower-end CMOS sensor considering the device's positioning as a super high end smartphone."

Well, I'm pretty sure the Galaxy Ace can handle those games... I personally play a lot of high end games in my SGS II and the difference is substantial, even in relatively low taxing games like Cytus (a rhythm game) the Galaxy Nexus just gets laggy.

I agree. I wouldn't recommend anyone a Galaxy S II over a Galaxy Nexus, regardless of the lackluster camera and the slower GPU. But going from a Galaxy S II to a Nexus is something I wouldn't recommend either, or upgrading to the SGS III or the HTC ONE X for that matter, SGS II owners should wait for their own good for the new Nexus. New buyers should either wait for the new Nexus or buy the current Galaxy Nexus if they don't want to spend much ($350 is just too good).

I am still a newbie here and I dont know if this thread already exist..

I just update my Galaxy Nexus to Jelly bean 4.1.1 using flash recovery

I am tryng to install ROM using Rom Manager but I got an android with red triangle exclamation mark.

What does it mean?

What do I need to do to fix this.

Thanks...
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
Never use ROM manager to install a ROM. What 4.1.1 ROM did you install? What recovery did you use (CWM or TWRP)? Is the Jellybean ROM you are on rooted? Can you still get into your custom recovery?
[General Questions and Answers] _Variable:
Why didnt you wait for the OTA update, Thats what you buy Nexuses for.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
Because JB was available 2 weeks before the OTA!
[General Questions and Answers] blitzen12:
I used CWM. my jellybean is rooted. I am able to get custom recovery..
[General Questions and Answers] blitzen12:
Android with Red Triangle exclamation mark on Galaxy Nexus

I already tried that when my jellybean version is JRN4D, I received update for JRO03C but when I tried I got the same error. So what I did is to flash it using CWM.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buluba89:
Hello everyone

I just got my archos 80 g9 turbo and I am really happy for the price.

But unfortunately I have a problem with the sound. If nothing makes a sound for some time , the sound becomes distorded like white noise. If I change the volume the sound is fixed until is silent for a while and becomes distorted again.

I tried re initialize everything as it seems to me like a software problem but no luck.

Anyone had the same problem ?

Edit: I think it is completely random when noise starts. But after sometime just stops....
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vicilinus:
Hey buddy,

i've got the same problem with my just bought Archos G9 101 Turbo.

Sometimes there comes a crackling noise out of the speakers. Sounds a bit like an old reeeally dusty vinyl record...

Is there any solution available?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buluba89:
I tried many software wise tweaks to solve the problem, nothing worked. So i rma it and hey send me a new one. Even the new does it but much less so i can live with it.

I have seen 3 archos 80g9 and all of them had the same problem ,so i believe its a design flaw...
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shoober:
I am on my second Archos G9 101 250GB Turbo. I returned the first one because of random crackling noise from the speakers (and for the phantom screen clicks). Both problems still exist on my replacement device. The noise occurs at random times for a few seconds then stops. I have noticed that it only occurs when the WiFi is on.

I use the Archos solely in the car as a media player (connected to my stereo via aux-in) for hours on end without ever getting the crackling noise, yet when I get home and connect to the WiFi…there is the noise again. I am not sure if this is software or a hardware issue.

I can live with this though because it works flawlessly as a first rate car stereo.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buluba89:
Yes, there are differences unit to unit. What I observed that the 2 units that came out of the box with honeycomb had this issue much more than the one that came with ics.

I am not sure if it is hardware or software either, my impression is still that is software because it is audible from phones and also looks like the crackling noise continues until the stream is over.

For example:

You play an mp3 and it starts with crackling sound.

The sound continues to be crackling until everything is silenced for a couple seconds

Then everything is normal.

But it appears to be random (haven't test with wifi turned off, I use it all the time with on ).

If some dev can check sources for solution or identify the problem I would be thankful
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Park82:
Same problem on the turbo. Anyone found a workaround yet?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arruntus:
HI

Same here but that noise always, with and without wifi, playing games or listening music.

i use ICE@BLUE V3, someone with others roms with same problem?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shoober:
I have not heard the crackle noise on my Archos for a about two weeks now. I use it as a media player (mp3) two hours a day everyday in the car. The Archos is in a dock on the car dashboard connected to my car stereo via Aux-in, I hardly ever hold it in my hands

The Archos 10i G9 Turbo is totally standard OS wise. I have replaced the original 250GB HDD with a 512GB SSD and because I only use it as an MP3 player and nothing else; I have disabled every application I was able to. I no longer use Bluetooth or WiFi.

I suspect it may have something to do with (based on my observation only and not on scientific basis):

1) WiFi connection?

2) Holding it?

3) Use of internal speakers?

4) Heat?

5) Software?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arruntus:
1) in my case no

2) in my case no

3) the problem is only with internal speaker

4) I'm not sure but it may be .........

5) with diferents rooms seems that the same, I'm not sure, so I asked

I think the problem is impedances, but the device that causes the problem is........?????

if the reason is this design flaw and not well protected the speaker.

Are speculations but together we can get something clear

Someone else with the same problem can describe when it happens what is doing?

Thx.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buluba89:
My first g9 did it everywhere, mp3, youtube , browser, games... and it was totally random in my opinion (i didnt check wifi on -off ). Very very very irritating.

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghanz84:
I just got a G9 80 with v4.06 on it. If it's plugged to the charger & charging, the electrical garbed sound will be there when typing or upon playing music/videos. If the charger is not plugged it, the garbed sound is intermittent when playing sound.

Seems like faulty hardware or a design flaw to me.

I will try the following when I reach home later:

1) upgrade to 4.07 & test

2) Test with earphones inserted
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghanz84:
Results:

1) upgrade to 4.07 & test (same issue )

2) Test with earphones inserted (clean sound playback, so it's the speaker only.)

I found out something upon inserting a usb thumbdrive to the G9. I have no sound garbed when the thumbdrive is inserted & enabled.

This is true for games & music, but when playing videos (Big Buck Bunny), sometimes the problem is still there. The inserted thumbdrive seems to reduce the frequency of garbed sound.

Can it be a grounding issue? :confused:
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arruntus:
Hi

Everything you say makes me think the same thing, shielding is the problem, i do not know if the speaker or cables are not well insulated.

I think the key word here is impedances, with good insulation could be solved.

I not have so much electronic knowledge to fix it.

some electronic some out there who can help us ??????
