[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Qbsti:
I am realy surprised by the price, my sister payed~ the same in PLN (Polish currency) for the Galaxy S Advance, and this is waaaaay better :)

Only the lack of sd card/32gb internal is bugging me. On Ace i have a 16gb card and i already have 10gb of music. so it's a major let down. besides this, it's just to good to be true :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] A_U:
LG sux in after sales support ! XD even if u gimme money to buy i wont XD

see what happened to their optimus 3d...it still dint even get official ICS forget JB ! XD...they still running in GB....

LG sux... and moreover optimus was their flagship device then, they abandoned it after just 1 year !

so same will happen to this too... but samsung or sony instead,,
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Spex:
google is giving support to it

not lg.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] A_U:
lolll u must not be knowing then....go check the forum of lg nexus 4 ! XD
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] gersto:
I still find it funny that Google refers to the UI as "buttery smooth"

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] dxppxd:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Quinny899:
Buttery smooth is a phrase to describe how smooth it is. It means very smooth.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] K.A.:
A nexus has google support and first priority on OS updates regardless of the manufacturer..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] bendirkss:
It doesn't matter who makes a nexus device. Its made under googles supervision, its made Google's way and is supported by Google. Samsung doesn't even know the galaxy nexus exists anymore, so why is everyone loving it still? Cause its Google.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Spex:
u rly dont know what your talking about.

google is giving softvare upgrades to nexus phones not manufacture
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ijustzeke:
so can the nexus 4 match up with s3?

sorry I don't know anything about the specs.

(I've read it and all but i don't know which one is better lol)

Edit : read a couple of stuff thru the internet! :D

yep. will be probably ditching SGA for a Nexus 4! :)

---------- Post added at 08:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ----------

@pwesome @Others

You guys think all galaxy nexus are updated by google? Hell no!

You will be shocked. Read this :

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT VARIANTS AND WHAT DO THEY MEAN?

Below is a definitive list of all known firmware variants for the Galaxy Nexus, and what models they shipped on:

GSM/HSPA+ Models

takju - USA region- and carrier-independent firmware released on models sold in the USA through the Google Play Store

yakju - International region- and carrier-independent firmware released on models sold throughout western Europe.

yakjudv - Variant for Australia

yakjujp - Variant for the Middle East

yakjukr - Variant for South Korea

yakjusc - Variant for Japan

yakjuux - Variant for Canada

yakjuvs - Variant for Brazil

yakjuxe - Variant for Russia and the former Eastern Bloc

yakjuxw - Variant for certain carriers in Western Europe

yakjuzs - Variant for China and Hong Kong

CDMA/LTE Models

mysid - Variant for Verizon in the USA

mysidspr - Variant for Sprint in the USA

HOW CAN I TELL WHICH FIRMWARE I HAVE ON MY DEVICE

Using any file manager app, go into your /system folder and open the file called "build.prop". Find the line that starts with ro.product.name. Whatever comes after the equals sign (=), that's the firmware you have.

WHICH FIRMWARE IS UPDATED BY GOOGLE AS OPPOSED TO SAMSUNG?

Google updates the following firmware variants:

takju

yakju

mysid

Every other variant is updated and maintained by Samsung.

SO YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT THE SPRINT GALAXY NEXUS GETS UPDATES FROM SAMSUNG AND NOT GOOGLE?!?!

Yep.

WHY DOES IT MATTER WHERE MY UPDATES COME FROM ANYWAY?

For all practical purposes, it probably doesn't. However, this becomes an issue if you want timely updates. When Google drops a new OTA update for the Galaxy Nexus, they always announce it through official Android channels. When they announce a Galaxy Nexus OTA, they are only referring to devices running the firmware that they control.

This means that if you have a Sprint Galaxy Nexus, or a GSM model running one of the yakju(xx) firmware variants, your device is not included in the OTA rollout from Google. Your update will instead come from Samsung sometime in the future after they make whatever region- and/or carrier-specific changes they need to make for the firmware.

WHAT'S THIS I'VE HEARD ABOUT BEING ABLE TO FLASH YAKJU FIRMWARE ON A DEVICE RUNNING YAKJU(XX)? IF I DO THIS, WILL MY UPDATES COME FROM GOOGLE?

You can flash yakju firmware onto any Galaxy Nexus GSM device that's running a yakju(xx) variant. This is outside the scope of this guide, but instructions can be found here on XDA with a little searching. Once you're up and running on yakju, your updates will come from Google rather than Samsung.

For more: http://xdaforums.com/show...7#post27803557

Mine was yakjuxw so i flashed yakju firmware now i get direct updates from google

For nexus S , all devices received update at same time.

Same situation can happen for LG nexus 4 :rolleyes: Time will say!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] LewisGauss:
Cheap and nice in specs.

Definitely my next phone.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] evil_penguin:
It will NOT be as stable as biuld for galaxy nexus :cool:

:rolleyes:

Every day there is a thread " I have sold my Siii and bought Nexus "

just saying...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] LewisGauss:
They're stupid. LOL
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Prawesome:
Why would it matter? The fact remains that all Nexus phones will have official support for a long time

Problem with LG was that they weren't giving timely updates.That, however wont be the case with the N4 as they SHOULD give updates..

Controversies,controversies everywhere :what:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] evil_penguin:
Yeah you are right!

But all variants for GN other than yakju and takju are updated 3-4 months after yakju/takju gets!

Many users get frustrated .
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] LewisGauss:
Does flashing yakju firmware works?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Prawesome:
For now,there are no specific CDMA/LTE variants.

Google said so.This is also the reason why Sprint and Verizon(or T-Mobile,I forgot) wont be getting the Nexus 4 at launch.

Controversies,controversies everywhere :what:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] evil_penguin:
That i know.

There can be variants. Variants in the sense some builds will be updated by lg and some by Google if they follow same pattern as galaxy nexus!

Why no LTE is good?

OHH MY GOD !!! most of the android uses still havent got the opportunity to use android 4.0 ICS and google has announced 4.2 as well ...

if google wants to upgrade android so quickly then a humble request to all android device manufacturers : please upgrade your devices at the rate with which google is upgrading it...

Is cm10 4.2 update out ???
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Qbsti:
nope, the official update will be rolling (probably) on 13 november (when the new nexus line will be available... but you can download many new features like the camera and keyboard from the nexus forum (only if you have 4.0+ already!!!)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] bendirkss:
13 October eh
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Frize18:
According to GSM Arena, the only bad thing is the battery life, It's not even Li-Ion, Li-Po. I've googled and found that each one has its pros and its limitations.

Hope that informations about battery aren't true. :)

But it's an awesome phone, really cheap for it's quality.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Prawesome:

Damn i was realy looking forward into this device and now i'll have to order it from my friend in UK and then send it to Poland..

I think the price here will be around 2000zł (570$)

and all i hear about this phone are its design flaws and other cons

Also do you think they will release a 32gb version in q2 2013? (like with nexus 7)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Quinny899:
It quite possibly will get a 32gb version around spring next year. But personally I think the next nexus (autumn next year probably) will have a 32gb version on launcher. I'll get that one :)

well i don't think I can wait another year, this ace is killing me -.-

i can try buying the LG nexus and selling it next year to buy the new one, but I am not sure if the glass back will remain unbroken :D

WTF GOOGLE?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Prawesome:

However in Singapore, Nexus devices are always hundred Singapore ddollars more expensive than what it is supposed to be. Look at the Nexus 7, it is supposed to be S$250+ directly coverted from USD199. When it comes to Singapore, it is a whooping S$375 :eek:. That's what I worry the most. Im worried when Nexus 4 (USD 300+) comes it is gonna be S$500+ which is the same as the Note II LTE on contract.

Austin 3:16 says "I just whooped your ass"

nah...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] biswatmak:
People here forget that Ace can never simulate S3. They show an attitude like each of them own an S3 and are expecting that both phones run CM10 in the same fashion. Devs are just trying to make a decent ROM so that at least we can have an experience of what its like running CM10 on our Ace.

My post was mean't for them, but if you yourself felt helped by the same, you are most welcome.

Hoping they will release it sooner than that :D spring is a long way away... and no SD is a major flaw. (What's Google thinking by removing expandable storage from their Nexus devices?)

Anyway, until then I'll just play with my Nexus 7 :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Prawesome:
CM10 should be updated with the latest changes soon...

I got transformed into a potato while writing this post..
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] LewisGauss:
They don't want users to get confused. Like when you're taking photos, where do my photos go? Internal memory or SD card? I've seen many of my friends who use S III get confused sometimes. :p

Furthermore, not everyone has a good and fast SD card. Some users might complain Nexus 4 sucks, the speed of reading SD contents is slow on Class 4 SD card.

I'm planning to buy this device, Nexus 4. There is no good support for any hardware issues ( just in case ) by LG in India ( Never used a LG mobile before but heard many people say that ). What I want to know is,

1) When is it releasing in India exactly ?

2) Can I buy it on univercell ? ( Online shopping is outta question for where I live ).

3) How is LG's service quality in India ?

4) If it'll be available on univercell for purchase, what will be the probable prices for the 8GB & the 16GB variants. ( Please don't quote ebay pricing, I already know that. )

5) I've come across a thread where in people reported broken back glass while the manufacturers say that it is gorilla glass. ( The glass was broken just by placing the phone in the pocket ! ). Now that I'm obsessed with this issue, how reliable is it to buy this phone besides all this ?

No doubt the phone beats S3 in a clean cut. But is it worth it ? Waiting for your answers... Thanks !!

I used to have a beautiful life before... Now I'm in engineering !!!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nims11:
not any confirmation about exact date and price for release in India

if you really want to buy wait for official release and buy from local store as ebay product will not provide warranty and lg services are horrible in India and its well known

and gorrila glass is on front side not on back of phone
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Prawesome:
1.ETA was November end..But obviously, N4 is out of stock and is not for sale even in European countries.It recently went on sale again in the US and went out of stock again in nearly 30 minutes from what I heard

2.Don't know..My recommdation is wait for it to arrive on stores

3.Pathetic from what I know

4.Prices near eBay or higher than that because its being sold by LG in India and not Google

5.You need a case.Both of the sides are covered with gorilla glass.Also you should love without a removable battery and no storage expansion

Nope..Both of the sides are made of gorilla glass
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Venomous Viper 119:
I am okay with all this. But let's forget ETA. Is it atleast confirmed to be available in India ? Unexpandable memory is fine coz 7GB & odd is more than enough for me. But an unremovable battery...?! Uhhh...:banghead: Is google galaxy nexus available in univercell ? If yes, what's the price ( I think it's 20,000 INR ) ? And did it get android 4.2 update or just 4.1.1 still ( I think it already got updated to the latest f/w ) ?

I used to have a beautiful life before... Now I'm in engineering !!!
