[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pyraxiate:
Im actually giving my wife my S2 to replace her LG Mytouch 4G. For the price, the mytouch wasnt all that bad. She has had it for 2 years and only had a power button issue just recently. I paid like $8 for the ribbon ( Which also included the MicroUSB port on it ) and it was back up and running in no time. Granted, Its been running CM since the day I opened the box ;)

Personally Im a Samsung fan. I used to be a big htc guy back in the day, but, their build quality seems lacking for the past 5 years or so. I still have my original galaxy in a drawer somewhere and its fully functional LOL. Cant say the same for any of my HTC's ( minus the HTC Tytn which I still have as well).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jj2154:
Wow you got lucky. My old mytouch used to constantly freeze, lag like you type a text & it wouldn't whow the letters for like half a minute, constatntly completely froze, had horrible battery life, & good luck trying to do stuff like web browse or watch a video. A web page would like like half hr to navigate to. Sry but hell no I odn't want another LG phone lol.

& I used to love HTC, the HTC Senstaion 4G was my last HTC phone. Since then it seems like a lot of their phones aren't good like the Galaxy.

I love Samsung, it currently my top 3 Fav brands :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pyraxiate:
You had to flash cm9 and overclock to get it running well enough. But yeah no where near comparable to any of the galaxy line. Wife wanted a white phone when we signed up with tmobile. ... that was the only one in store lol. My s2 is going on 3 years old and still runs nice and zippy. I'll be sticking with Samsung for a while methinks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blackangst:
Windows isnt that bad. The reason for this decision is to rid my life of anything Google. This isnt the forum to discuss the why. As of right now, my phone is the only thing left.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jj2154:
Wow that's what I wanted, the white S2 lol. I got a really good deal on one that that a slight crack on the side were the silver is. I luv the phone though, as it's so much better than my old one. At my last job I used to play music on it at night. The speakers sounded waaayyy better & louder than the mytouch hehe. Oh & you know that it has LTE on it, right? I've had LTE on my phone, only problem with LTE that I had is that it kept wanting to go into 3G mode instead of staying in 4G when it popped out of LTE.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
I won't ask why....unhappy customer I'll assume.

Just be ready to get what your given tho .....not gonna be like android where you can pretty much change and alter anything and everything.

I have no issue with the performance or quality of iPhones for example....but, I'd be bored quick! Lol

And I've never even held a windows phone, but the launchers we have are ugly to me. Very! Lol

I believe if i'm going to get a new phone it would be the xperia z, great hardware, dont believe anyone use a phone needs more than a quad core, more is just for show. 2gb ram, hell dont even need a 1080p screen. I'd keep that phone for awhile since it's slightly rugged too

Decided that Christmas ...because of the price for what you get....I'm buying an N4.....then when my contract expires I can go without one and tell my carrier to kiss my butt and move to another anytime I get pissed off. LOL

Waiting some time longer

I will also be waiting a bit longer until a newer phone comes out and current generation phones get cheaper. It is not worth it to buy a phone more than $300. Probably S4 seems best choice right now once price falls.

Farewell my friends, I jumped ship and got the LG G2. I won't start playing with it until it has a full charge. Thanks to all the devs here in the S2 forum that make it rock. Wish some of these devs would consider getting the G2...hehe. Thanks to all who contributed. Hope to see some of you in the G2 forum. :D

Sticking with GS2 until they start making high end devices with 4.5 inch screens again. I don't want a huge phone.

Also not to mention the great developers still working on the t989.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Finally decided. LG G2. there's no better phone out there today. I can get one for 500'ish, which is a small amount more than the N5....and the G2 is better than the N5 in many ways....camera, battery, etc... aside from updates and development. N5 will win there. Tho I plan to root, but stay stock.

And the main factor for me.....the battery life on the G2 is crazy!! And that's what I hate the most now days. And the N5 is marginally better than the S2. But the G2 can hit 7 hours screen time I've been reading in their forum, with 24 hours total. That's nuts. ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Newbee85:
I think as long as the wonderful developers keep up the good work with ROMS I will gladly stick with my GS2 for quite a while longer.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] MenaDuDeR:

I think The LG G2 will be the best second phone for me. Its performance and features actually makes it most likely to be updated to future android versions. Can't wait to buy it :):):) . Anyone have any other ideas and suggestions ?

There isn't currently a better phone out there. Unless you wanna sacrifice a few things for the N5 for better development.

I just got the Nexus 5 two day ago. IMO, you owe it to yourself to play around with one before you buy something else. It is fairly damn incredible stock. How fast and fluid it is over a skinned phone is night and day. I had it unlocked, installed twrp and rooted it the first night I had it.

I have partitioned my SD-Card as told by Cute_Prince...

And I wanted to flash AteeqRom V5 OC...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1801388

This is the how I made the partitions...(Using Minitool Partition Wizard) & (Running on Windows 7) !

1.Deleted any existing partition.

2.Made a SD-CACHE partition as ext2.

2.Made a SD-DATA partition as ext2.

3.Made the SD-CARD partition as fat32.

Next what I did is...

1.Transferred the ROM.zip to the SD-CARD.

2.Inserted the SD-CARD in my phone.

3.In CWM, I formatted data, dalvik cache and system as well.

4.I then flashed the ROM.zip.

After this I get stuck at the HTC Screen, the ROM wont boot up...

THE SAME HAPPENS WITH THE TIGERSENSE OC REVAMPED ROM..!

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong...I've tried doing this many times with the Ateeq ROM..!

I really want the Stock ROM with OC...

So I request you to please please please help me...:crying:

Thanks in Advanced !

hi mate, if you want to take the new OC (one by cute_prince's method) install cm10 and the n flash pandora kernel , or install cm10.1 and flash jarvis kernel
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] dinesam:
use CWM recovery and format boot, system, cache,dalvik,userdata, then try to install...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shree15:
I think for sense ROMS you need to create 3 partitions not 2..

SD-EXT, around 512MB is enough. It contains only system files.

SD-DATA, you can give whatever size you want. This where the user applications are installed

SD-CACHE, around 65MB is enough.

above all partitions should be ext4

and one is default SD card
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cyborgmanu:
What do you mean ?

How will flashing those ROMs and Kernels help me in getting through with the Cute_Prince method ?:confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CMeys:
I just installed K-9 email client and like it a lot. The only problem is that it doesn't seem possible to put it's unread count widget into the dock. I can put other widgets in the dock, but not this one. Is there any way around that or another widget I could use of that sort that would go in the dock?

I'm not rooted, stock, no launcher. If there is a launcher that would accomplish this, I'd consider it, but otherwise the stock works for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
You could definitely try Apex launcher.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CMeys:
Okay, I've installed Apex Launcher, purchased Apex Pro, installed Apex notifications, but still can't figure out how to get an icon for K-9 unread mail into the dock.

I see that I can have the K-9 unread count show on either the email icon or the Gmail one, but then tapping on the icon opens those apps not K-9. I have missed something?

Please explain how to do this.

TIA
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CMeys:
Okay, I've found the Apex setting to allow widgets in the dock and have put the K-9 unread email widget there. That works; but the icon is so ugly and smaller than the other ones in the dock. Long press doesn't give any edit settings for it. Any way I can get this working with a nicer icon?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] rohan32:
First off, yes I know this is not the HTC One S forums. Let me explain my reasoning for posting this here

The HTC One S is part of our family of devices (which includes this device, the One S, Evo 4G LTE, and Incredible 4G LTE). Although it doesnt matter much in terms of Sense development, for AOSP development, this family of devices is the family that we share many files with, including kernel source releases and other files which make up the ROM such as proprietary files.

For AOSP devices, these files are essential in keeping our device up to date and running on the latest Android version. These files from Sense such as proprietary files are essential in this. Generally speaking, the latest version of these files is used in AOSP ROMs.

If the One S is kept alive, it will offer another device that we can grab these files from, if HTC decides to kill off our device and keep theirs, or visa versa. If they release 4.2.2 Sense for the One S first, then we can use those files from their release in ours. So if their device is kept alive, ours can be greatly affected by it as well.

tl;dr Their situation affects our device too, so sign this petition to help show HTC that the community wants the device to be supported.

Here is the petition: http://www.change.org/petitions/htc-give-the-one-s-continued-support-like-the-one-x

P.S. to anyone who thinks that these petitions do nothing, I will point to the Desire HD (I believe? one of the desires) that had so much community support that HTC ended up releasing a firmware update for it through RUU to ICS specifically for developers and modders. HTC is listening.

the sensation didn't get jellybean, but the galaxy s2 did.

however, the successor to the sensation (one s) not getting jellybean is beyond ridiculous.

((EDIT: ignore mistake, explained in next post))
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DroidRunner:
I had a HTC Aria, HTC Inspire and an One X. The lack of support is a known issue with HTC. People will buy them no matter what. I think I'm done with them though. The build quality is phenomenal and on par with Moto I think (who also sucks at continuing updates). I am probably getting the Note 3 because Samsung is exceptional at continuing updates to their phones. And the 3gbs of ram is another huge factor :)

I don't hate HTC but I don't want to rely solely on XDA for my updates.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DylRicho:
The One S has Jelly Bean, just not the latest version. In fact, 4.1 was released last July. My girlfriend and I didn't get it from Vodafone until December 25, and I've read that T-Mobile US users didn't get it until recently! That's dreadful, especially for a relatively new device like this.:rolleyes:

I hope if the device is continued to be updated that the updates come a little quicker!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] raz0rf1sh:
oops, my bad, by updates, I also meant getting a UI update...

and even though the sensation did somewhat badly, at least it got a major update (2.3.4 to 4.0.3), and a newer version of sense (although not the lastest version available which was stupid!!)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DylRicho:
You can blame HTC's 18-month update policy for that. Also something that they don't stick to, and now they're bringing out crappy devices like the Desire 200 to hopefully make up the revenue loss. :rolleyes:

When will HTC realize that releasing 20 phones per year is a bad concept? Update the phones you've already released, dammit!

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] itzik2sh:
EDIT 3 :)

I quit on Neutron player.

It is by far the most customizable music player around, but :

* it is too buggy, unstable and laggy.

* it is too customizable IMO - I simply lose my mind trying to set it again and again on every song.

* it does not work well with audio MODs such as Viper4Android.

* it consumes all the device memory and battery

* it messes with your lockscreen in a bizzare way (cuasing 2-level lock screen) and starts to play as soon as you plug the jack in.

I now use :

* MIUI music player (well, I'm on MIUI)...

* Viper4Android FX (Google Play version) - for some reason the XDA version did not work that well.

( I uninstalled Voodoo Sound, although I love its basses, to minimize post-processing and I use All the VP4A MOD options except for the equalizer - in which MIUI player's is better).
