[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] ashish.kmc08:
congrats buddy :)

but dont forget our good old galaxy royale :P

ps any news of nexus 4 releasing in india??

its released at a price of 299 $...so it woluld b a killer device if released in India at such a price (17-18k)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] D™:
Not at all buddy. I can't forget my Royale Mobile.from which I linked up with you guys. Its feel like family here.

Here is few config of Nexus 4:

The Nexus 4, announced yesterday and rumored for about 50 years before then, goes on sale directly from Google starting November 13. The unlocked, off-contract phone will cost $300 for an 8GB model and $350 for the 16GB version.

So what's the phone actually like to use? I haven't had it for long -- I'll be sharing more detailed thoughts after I've had a chance to really get to know the thing -- but my first impression is that this is one very nice device.

In terms of basic hardware and form, Google has clearly taken the best parts of LG's Optimus G -- the foundation upon which the phone is based -- and polished them to near-perfection. This is truly a melding of LG's basic hardware and Google's sense of design.

Put simply, the Nexus 4 looks and feels the way a high-end smartphone should. It's sleek, solid, and not at all flimsy. There are no cheap-feeling, plasticky surfaces here.

The Nexus 4's 4.7-in. display extends all the way to the side edges of the phone's face. That brings up an important detail: On the Nexus 4, the glass is curved, but it's curved in a different way than what we've seen with past Nexus devices. Here, the glass curves along the edges of the phone -- something the Android team did in order to match the way you hold and interact with the device. (The glass curvature on past Nexus devices, in contrast, was designed to match the contours of your face -- but let's face it, most of us hold our phones in our hands far more than we hold them up to our heads these days.)

Pls tell me.. is iphone 4 better than SGR?? I have an option for changing the phone to iphone4 16gb.. suggest me whether i should take it or leave it...
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] D™:
Buddy, just a sec. you are asking to leave Galaxy R..?? see, i m fan of apple laptop only.:silly: but phone is something diff. its have limited conditions.:( like for sound you need itunes always.:( Second, as we have lots of ROM now & will have lots of in future, but in apple you will face that boring 1 ROM(talking about screen only). Yes touch is slightly diff.:victory: but yes Apple stands in its way & galaxy R( The Royale one, the massive one) stands in its way. So, both have diff UI & Diff ROMs. it must be upto you.. :D
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] vipul12389mehta:

well m a android fan..coz its open source n i like to customize anythin i want... derz no sammy restrictin me that you cant do..m free wat i want..

in apple u itunes to sync..any damm thing..

secondly abt hardware...

ip4 is a single core with a 3.7 or 3.5" phone...

sgr is dual core with a 4.2"..

so sgr rocks...

remember u can only update ur fone if and only if apple releases n update..where s in android there r so many unofficial updates to latest rom..

think.....if u like customizing or u r a geek, tech savvy stay with droud...
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] Adam77Root:
I'd recommend not to change to iPhone. Our phone has a long life support now that we have CM10 and will definitely have 4.2 as soon as it gets released. Our screen is much bigger and the phone has very good specifications in all fields.

@Vikesh: You don't need iTunes anymore for music. My friend, H2CO3 created libipodimport which allows users to add songs to iPod directly without iTunes. It's an amazing project, check it out if you have a jailbroken iDevice.

If u want a phone which have rich dev support, latest android versions and want to play with roms like cyanogen, then go for nexus. Nex4 is having pretty good hw also (cortex a15 quad + adreno 320 + 2gb ram).

I would suggest nex4 over gs3.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mj.vikram:
Defiantly you can see that day soon buddy, because I've read that some developers are working on it (Multiple windows on screen like Note 10.1) for Nexus 7 so once it comes to Nexus 7 it will be easy to port it to Nexus 4 also...

And one more thing is already CM Team started to work on Nexus 4 and Nexus 4 have official CWM Touch and Root, watch this video CM kernel is ready ....

Samsung Galaxy Nexus now ?

Brothers..

Will it be a wise decision if I buy a Samsung Nexus now.

I wanted to move to a phone with awesome dev support and pretty new too and was trying a lot to get the Nexus 4, but in vain and i dont think i can get it anytime sooner too. Im trying to get one through my brother in UK.

so as a second choice and considering the price to dev support ratio, looks like samsung nexus is a great buy.

but Im worried if its very late to get an aging device now.

opinions ?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mj.vikram:
I don't think its late buddy, still its a great device and have very good dev support compared to any other mobile available in the market now...
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] 'cooleagle':
It still does have dev support but you should also take into consideration the hardware specs of the device.

There would be some limitations which the users of the device in question could face in future due to the hardware it has which cannot be overcome even with good dev support.

I also had once thought of considering the Nexus 4. However after reading about the fragile rear glass, its battery life & the touch response of its zero gap screen I've reconsidered that thought at the moment.

There's no doubt it's a wonderful device at the cost it's being made available in US. However I simply don't feel like it's worth the hassles of getting it imported without warranty keeping in mind the various issues which have cropped up in the initial batch.

I guess it'll be launched in India at a higher price sometime around next year which would take away it's major advantage.

I've decided to wait for the devices which would be on offer next year around the month of April - May and pick something which is really worth upgrading over our Galaxy R.

Do update us on whatever you plan to do.

Cheers ! :)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] sarun_biotech:
Thanks mj and eagle for ur detailed reply.

@eagle. Yeah i too was a bit concerned that galaxy nexus might not be future proof in terms of hw.

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] sarun_biotech:
by every passing minute im itching to get a galaxy nexus desperately...
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
It depends what your expectations are. If you're not a heavy gamer or LWP lover then Galaxy Nexus is a pretty decent device for you. Jelly bean has breathed new life into this device. Its smoothness, responsiveness in combination with very nice high resolution screen (720x1180, even though it's a pentile) and fastest firmware updates (I received 4.2.1 yesterday) still provides you impression of high end phone (in spite of really very poor GPU, TiOMAP 4460 was a decent CPU but really nothing to brag. On the other hand it's the most devs friendly CPU and it gets CM almost instantly. Little comparison... Exynos powered devices like S3/Note will probably never get fully working AOSP/CM rom. S2 doesn't even boot with CM10.1. This crowned king of 2011 is practicaly dead despite massive efforts of xda elite developers like codeworx or entropy).

As for me, if Google manages to eliminate couple of minor stutters in application drawer and maybe add t9 dialer...I really don't need to either upgrade my device or update firmware anymore within one year....until Nexus5 is released :) (I don't know much about Nexus4 issues but this Quad Core S4 Krait is a real beast !!!! )
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] sarun_biotech:
thanks a lot kochan for ur detailed suggestion. I do not play very resource hungry games on my phone and my main expectation is to have a fone that has tons of things to flash and play around. So im guessing many of ur suggestions now inclines towards the galaxy nexus as per my expectation.

Just one more doubt. How long do u guess that this active support willbe there for the galaxy nexus. If its atleast one more year, im gonna order one tmrw.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] vipul12389mehta:
just c nexus s....

its a 2yr old device n has still dev support... nw u can guess fr gnexus
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
Haha, that's exactly what I wanted to say :)

Sarun, none can give you 100% guarantee. But I don't think you should worry. IMO Galaxy Nexus will be oficially supported by google until next Nexus's release (I mean number 5). That's how it was in case of Nexus S (Number 2). It was released in 2010 and received its last update two months ago (JB 4.1.1) - right before N4 was introduced. If you go to google+ cyanogenmod's wall you'll see that work on CM10.1 for Nexus S is in progress! If you like AOSP/CM based roms then NExus is the device for you. There are tons of such roms that can really be called rock stable. Every developer will tell you that Nexus is the easiest device to work with.

I've been using GNex for two months so I guess would go for N4, (because it's a NEW toy :P ). But if you ask me whether I regret buying Galaxy Nexus a month before N4 was released. The answer is: not at al. I really like it, and I am not at all bored with it. Everyday or every few day you can update your favorite roms or test new ones.

That can be an interesting thread for you:

I can root this phone. No problem. I can then remount /system (or and other mount) as read-write and make changes. HOWEVER, I cannot get any other programs to recognize the device as rooted. I have su over-permissioned to 777 (I have it permissioned to root.shell).

What have I overlooked?

Did you install superuser app?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] eyeconic:
Yes, I installed superuser. Then when I try to install something like busybox, it does not prompt to provide root privileges. It then fails to install. The whole thing is antithetical to the Linux model/sudo due to the lack of a login I suppose.

Lol maybe you haven't flashed to many ics roms but any of the cm9 and aokp roms have this battery icon. I personally like it better than the cm7 or cm9 number and skinny bar. And its def better than stock.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] BleedsOrangeandBlue:
I've been on .232 CM9 since I got the phone (with the exception of the first 16 hours while I was learning how to not break it). I've never used the 1% option, mostly because I hate having a cluttered status bar and because I use circle battery widget on my homescreen.

I would rather there not be any numbers there. Since they are there, I think the mod would benefit from taking them off the battery icon altogether, putting both numbers centered over the battery icon, or at least making the battery icon skinnier so that the second number is centered inside of it. The way it is currently makes it look like an unintentional mistake, largely due to how misaligned the second number is over the battery.

I've never done anything with themeing, maybe I'll take this on as a little project for myself.
