[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zroice:
I really start to believe that my questions are "weird" or non-standard lol because I get so few answers always and google/etc. also has no good info.

At least my latest ones =).. like how to put the internal SD data onto the external with apps still recognizing it etc....

sigh why dont I have more common questions..

And then I end up checking the threads over and over in hope that someone finally has a good answer for me heh...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cpt.Peppy:
Any news/help regarding this?

Same here for me, uTrack is activated and configured on SGS. Login into http://samsungdive.com/ successfull, but locating the phone is not possible.

Thx!

When I saw a picture of the Nexus S, I thought, what a ugly phone. Then, I saw that it's made by Samsung, nothing against Samsung but to me their phones are cheap The phone doesn't deserve the Nexus name. IMO HTC makes the best phones. I have three friends that have Galaxy S's, and their always asking me for my N1, to use my navigation, and make phone calls, because they're always losing their signal, and their GPS is screwy, plus they have ****ty battery life, so they live on their chargers. I keep telling them to root, but they want me to do it for them, I stopped rooting peoples phones who refuse to educate themselves about rooting, because they're always calling you with problems, because they don't understand. Another thing, I was thinking about buying the Evo, but my friend has it and the resolution is crap, the colors are dull, almost to the point of transparency, I think HTC focused too much on having the biggest screen, so I won't be buying that crap, I thought that all the high-end android devices after the N1 would blow us out, but have done nothing except confirm that I made the right choice with my Sexy Nexy:D, so we'll be together a little while longer. I thought the N2 would go in the direction of the Desire look, that's a classy phone, that has a professional look for older gents like myself, I'm very disappointed that Google gave Samsung the contract.

[Nexus One General] SBERG117:
Is it possible its something as simple as google wanting to continue use of a amoled screen capable phone for dev. phone purposes? I mean thats one of the main interest points ive noticed when anyone sees my N1. Everyone says "wow the screen is so crisp". Seeing how samsung took amoled away from everyone else just kind of makes sense on googles part if that be the case.

Nothing against HTC, they make great phones but i just wonder if use of amoled is more paramount than most give credit for. Look at it this way, all phone makers can more or less make the same kind of phones hardware wise. Only difference being is samsungs ability to use amoled. Just a thought , nothing more.
[Nexus One General] seeking:
i read on here that HTC said the N1 would be thier first and last phone designed for a non carrier and that is why google had to go else where. I'd have prefered motorola, but samsung is an ok 2nd choice. HTC would obviously have been my first but they are out of the question. All i really care about is vanilla android with updates from google, a nice sized screen, good hardware, and a nice design.

the nexus S has all of the above minus the nice design...but it has helped me realize that the design weights a lot more in my purchasing decision than I had previously thought. I dont see myself buying a nexus s if it looks like the leaks orion processor or not

What does this have to do with anything?
[Nexus One General] :
i too wanted a galaxy...until i held it. i feels so incredibly cheap compared to the nexus one. if the nexus s was wrapped in aluminum id be more inclined to buy it
[Nexus One General] greenstuffs:
Galaxy S does not feel cheap, cheap is like these throw away prepaid phones like the nokias or motos, the vibrant is pretty sturdy, sure the shiny plastic doesn't appeal to everyone but the phone does not feel cheap.
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
I'd have to agree I tried out my friends Vibrant for a few weeks and it felt great to me.

Alot of the time the people that had iPhone 4's felt that since the Vibrant was lighter it felt cheaper but for me the lighter the phone is the better :D

Also I was wondering if the back panel on the galaxy s was sanded down by samsung to a matte finish, would people still say it was cheap?
[Nexus One General] mkrmec:
The samsungs "plastic" is probably a much better protection than aluminium ones. They crack aluminium just bends and then crack, samsungs plastic is actualy high grade. My sister has a galaxy s and I'm stunned when I see the phone fall because she's so clumsy. And I see that again and again.. the phone seems ok a scratch here and there but knowing that it falls on the floor all the time it's a very good protection.

What would happen if that happened to my N1.. I don't even wanna know, it's still in pristine condition not dropped once since the launch of the phone. Thank you :D

I vote for plastic, would be nice if it wasn't glossy though.

Ok, by that logic, I like LED TV by Samsung but because the screen is too thin and it's too bright, I will pass on it for a CRT TV because it's not as bright. (Stupid-man logic)

[Nexus One General] :
I think you guys are confusing durability for "feel".

The durability on a plastic housing will be better than a metal housing due to the malleability of metal. But you will rarely find a plastic housing that feels as nice as a metallic housing does.

I'll take the sexiness of a metallic device for the feel of it and take a hit on durability when dropped, because I hold my device more than I drop it.
[Nexus One General] norazi:
I love my amoled over any other tech but it is definitely not more “crisp.” it is well documented that the amoleds in the nexus and samsungs are less crisp due to the pentile pixel arrangement. Better color saturation yes, more crsip no.
[Nexus One General] ROBIN50N:
not trolling at all. i have a nexus one and just wondered why all of a sudden samsung are awsome?.

that ok with you chief?

didnt realise this forum was a spelling test.:rolleyes:
[Nexus One General] :
Plastic is only more durable when its thick and the Galaxy S in no way has thick plastics/high quality plastics. The Nexus One has a relatively thick aluminum unibody. I would rather have a dented phone than a cracked one lol. Plastic is also more susceptible to heat damage and warping than metal is. Yes metal is highly malleable, but the forces required to dent it are pretty high. Most people will not subject the phone to forces that will deform the metal or crack the plastics. The issue really boils down to the flexibility and rigidity of the phones. Metal will flex when higher forces are subjected while plastic flexes with little force. This is why plastics feel cheaper.

Regarding the feeling of "cheapness," this is an objective thing. If I'm paying triple digits for a phone, I expect it to not feel like a toy. Thats been a problem with every phone I've had except the Nexus. The Nexus One was the first phone I had that did not feel cheaply constructed. I prefer phones that are dense vs. hollow feeling. This is something the iPhone does well (sadly its Apple.) There are very few phones that have the feel of the Nexus One.
[Nexus One General] thenotoriouspie:
I can get down with that
[Nexus One General] SoberGuy:
I never watched that before. Can I cry now for those poor, sexy phones?

I hear what the one guy is saying about "feel" vs durability/strength...but I really think the Nexus 1 has both. I love the feel of mine, but I know mine has held up very well to the little bit of abuse it's been (unfortunately) exposed to.

UMMM i know all that but youve taken what i said completely out of context. To the average person who knows squat about cell phones the screen is unlike anything they're used to seeing. I said the word "crisp"...yes i did..But to assume that im supposed to be ultra politically correct in usage of a word is goin overboard a little.

I mean ...Really??? You couldn't see what i was getting at? Really?? Sorry i violated your ultra superior train of thought pertaining to all matters of the amoled world.. My bad...Really dude????? Really???? :confused::confused::confused:
[Nexus One General] Alex530:
Op. You know nothing about phones do you? The evos screen is the same as yours. Same amoled. The nexus S is gonna a super amoled 2. Just that is enough to give it the nexus name. Amoled is sh!t compared to amoled. Plus my battery ain't ****ty at all. I do not know why you even bring that up. I've seen vibrants go for 70+ hours on one charge, can your nexus do that? And crappy GPS? Are you serious? Mine WAS crappy before the ota we got but now it's dead on spot. So either your friends don't have galaxy s phones or your lying about your friends and their phones.
[Nexus One General] SBERG117:
The evo is a tft not amoled. It has a backlight. Really??? You couldnt look that up before typing? Really ??????

70+ hours on the vibrant? Because it's not being used? GPS didn't work before...gets worse reception than the N1 so it probably just shuts up the Radio...etc...etc... LoL. 70+ hours....LoL...did they forget that they had a phone? LoL! (can I see your vibrant? No...I'm trying to get 70+ hours on it.) LoL! Now...Really? :rolleyes::D You were probably reaching for the 1 on the keyboard...right?

Haha I never said I did I've seen REALLY seen pics of phones with 70+ hours. REALLY! Plus I get great, reception with froyo. REALLY! LMFAO:DD
[Nexus One General] pixel-painter:
It would seem to me that Google is unlikely to put their own name on the phone until it meets their standards. The Galaxy S phone is not as premium of a phone as the Nexus S will be. The Nexus One shows that Google has a fair amount of input in the design build of their phones.
[Nexus One General] kolyan:
Evos have LCD, Nexus has AMOLED, Nexus S has SAMOLED.

And Vibrants dont last 70+ hours. This is total bull****. I have both and battery on Nexus lasts longer then on Vibrant. My Nexus drains 0.4% per hour in standby, Vibrant drains 2% per hour. Vibrant lasts me about 12-15 hours at most.
[Nexus One General] Alex530:
If you've been keeping up with the vibrant section which your not you'd know that many user are going days with their phone. I don't bull****. I have no need to.
[Nexus One General] kolyan:
I have, and I dont want to search, but TW developer said himself that people that post 30+ hours of normal to heavy use are full of **** and the most you can accept from their ROMs is about 14 hours of somewhat heavy use
[Nexus One General] Alex530:
There you go. at anytime at all did I say they were heavily using their phone eh? Did you ever take in consideration that some of the population here aren't powerusers? They use they're phone only when they need to.
[Nexus One General] falconeight:
The new nexus s has a lot to live up to.
[Nexus One General] kolyan:
Why bother with smart phone when you dont use it. then 70 hours is not really that impressive to begin with, because Nexus can probably do 200-250 hours...

like I said, I am draining about 2% per hour on Vibrant, that means 50 hours, and my Nexus is draining 0.4 per hour, mean 250 hours
[Nexus One General] Alex530:
My frigging God. Do you not get the point? They do not have it on their hand 24/7 like we do. They use it when they need to.
[Nexus One General] kolyan:
I do get it. But then 70 hours is still very little compared to 250 that I can get from Nexus
[Nexus One General] SoberGuy:
You totally missed the point, man. The Vibrant is waaaaaay better because casual use provides 70+ hours, whereas heavy use with a Nexus gets you 15-18. You have to compare apples to oranges, man. That apples to apples stuff is so, like, last year. Sheesh.

On another just as valid note, diesel cars are better for the environment than electric cars, because they can go farther.

[Nexus One General] SBERG117:
Who the heck stays on a phone for 70+ straight to make any sense of this discussion? People sleep. Generally when we do we plug in the phone and wake up and do it all over again.

Whether the phone gets 70+ hours or 20 hours chances are your not gonna be A) Up long enough to care.

B) Using the phone anyway( Hence the reason the phone is getting 70+ hours, if it is?)

C)...................................................................................................Really?????
[Nexus One General] Alex530:
Is really your punchline? And ill leave my phone unplugged most of the time because I hate using it with a cable plugged into it. So yea I can see myself getting about 50 hours.
[Nexus One General] SBERG117:
So you dont sleep is what your saying? Your up 50 hours at a time? Wow you just keep getting better and better. You do realize based on your first post your credibility is hovering in the zero range, right?

Ya came in and blasted someone and made your self look pretty bad in the process by being too lazy to re- read what ya typed and then being dead wrong in the info. " the evo has amoled" .......That was priceless.

Even more so you couldnt even apologize for it. But now im the problem because i said.............Really?????? Hey if it works it works. People seemed to get a kick out of it so alls good. So please just take a few seconds next time and just double check what ya wrote to avoid the need for someone , anyone to sit and read and then just think to themselves..........................................................................................................Really????:p:p:p
[Nexus One General] Alex530:
Apologize for what? At any moment did I offend anyone? If there's anything to apologize to I'd be for waisting my time replying to you. And I know what I'm typing. And is there a problem with me reading another section? Does it say anywhere at all: Stay in the section of your phone? & I never said I didn't sleep. Don't put words in my mouth. I prefer to leave my phone unplugged because I sleep next to it and my cable annoys me. and yea I will use it everyknow and then so don't bring something up if you don't know the story to it.
[Nexus One General] Alex530:
Double post
[Nexus One General] cyberbillp:
I have both phones. I prefer the size, screen, and design of the Nexus.

But there are two major issues that drive me to carrying the galaxy instead of the nexus.

The big one is app storage. I got so f'n sick of trying to juggle apps so they fit on the Nexus.

The second issue is the touch sensor. The nexus multi touch sucks and the screen gets confused all the time. It's better with the patches, but it still gets confused some times.

The galaxy screen can't compare to the nexus at all, the color purity sucks. Very green. But the multi touch is awesome. The 3d accellerator is great, and 16gb storage seals the deal. The gps works well enough now on the galaxy, so while I can pick up either one to carry, I pick up the Galaxy.

Would I buy a Galaxy S to upgrade from a Nexus? Never. There's not that much difference. I got one for free, so I get to choose.
[Nexus One General] SBERG117:
On behalf of XDA and bloggers everywhere i want to say thank you for providing enough material for everyone to see your one of the dumbest people walking the planet today.

[Nexus One General] kolyan:
is the phone with you on the pillow ? you might qualify for cell phones and brain cancer study.......

I any way, I get about 14 hours max on my Vibrant, thats more then enough for me because i charge it over night. Cant wait for Nexus S, it will probably have better battery life. I still dont know why my Vibrant is draining 2% per hour in standby, and I've done lots of tests.
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
Can anyone comment on picture/video quality of Samsungs recent lines in comparison to Nexus One ?
[Nexus One General] :
You mean the camera? I think nearly all reviews of the samsung S line say they are definately better than the n1. Even those without flash.

There's rumors floating around of the upcoming galaxy line having konica minolta optics, so take that how you will.
[Nexus One General] xManMythLegend:
Yeah I meant the camera.

The indoor quality of the N1 was just atrocious. I may have to browse flickr for comparison shots.

[Nexus One General] OJ in Compton:
The samsung galaxy line in general has better camera quality.

I'm so disappointed with the quality of the G2, desireHD and their wp7 phones. I don't understand why it's so hard for HTC to put decent camera software and hardware in their phones. It's not bad enough that I'd sell my nexus one but competitors have much better cameras.
[Nexus One General] davados:
The only problem I can for see with the nexus s is if it has dual processers the battery life will be very poor I just really hope that they've preempt this. Other than that I'm really looking forward to seeing it in action.

aluminum is a pretty bad material for a phone.. i even think its bad for the macbooks... its a very soft and light metal so when u drop it, it will bend and dent very easily... also scratches very easily. something like magnesium alloy would be alot better

if implemented properly, a dual core uses less power than a single core.. this is because the software will run more efficiently while multitasking.

Which is pointless when you consider the TMO version of the Galaxy S has AT&T 3G bands.

[Nexus One General] :
I dont intend to drop it but i understand it can dent. In my experience, it does not dent as easy as you make it seem. Even so, it would require it to be subjected to forces outside normal usage. Plastic on the other hand suffers significantly from normal wear and tear. You get creaking, microscratches, and even splitting joints from normal pampered usage. Aluminum not a "very soft" metal as it is quite strong for its weight. The force required to dent aluminum is greater than the force required to crack most plastics (depends on the plastic type. ) If strength was an issue, it wouldn't be used in the variety of ways it is being used. Magnesium alloys will be around the same strength as aluminum. Magnesium is used as a way to get aluminum-like strength at 2/3 the density.

(read up on why they cancelled the xm8 for more details why HK dropped the usage of plastics)
