Wow.

Where's the ignore button.

OP, if you like the SGS2 then wait for it, or wait for iP5 see what apple puts out.

I am doing that right now, between SGS2 or iP5.

Most of the stuff you will get here is android fans, but in reality apple has much better hardware than anything on android (my opinion). The OS, well they are pretty similar, if you want your phone to just work apple all the way, if you want to customized then go android.

Just be aware that iPhone can also be customized by jailbreaking.

I have a 3GS that's almost 2 years old and it's working as good as day one. :D
[Galaxy S II General] martino2k6:
Reality and personal opinion don't mix sadly. Anyway, depends what you mean by "hardware". Apple A4 was Samsung's Hummingbird, just with a lower clock and a slower GPU. Overall build quality may be better... until it falls and you're left with cracked glass all over the phone. Antennagate? Not sure about the much better now...

Software and integration is another story, that's where iOS definitely wins.
[Galaxy S II General] ninja0n3:
It's all relative to needs.

Sure, the iP is a pretty piece of hardware backed up but the brand fandom. everyone has it, everyone wants one.

As far as jailbreaking goes, the cat and mouse update/jailbreak game with apple gets old really fast... Every update of iOS patches something that dev team fixes and then they fix it and apple releases another update and .... you get the idea.

Jailbreaking every two months, playing with the unlocked baseband and risking ending up with a brick is no fun.

Personally I've decided to move away from every apple product, because apple doesn't necessarily have the greatest most advanced hardware, what they do have is massive marketing department with lots of talented people to make people want those devices (just look at apple product placement in the media).

In the end, it's a matter of usability, preference and what works for the individual; at this point in time, the iP4 is clearly outdated compared (hardware wise) to the devices coming out right now or in the coming month (Atrix, SGS2, etc...) and they will have had 6-7 months to prepare and get the iP5 design ready and produced by June-July-Sept with better hardware based on what they saw coming out from the competition at the CES and other events. By the time apple is done promoting their revolutionary iP5, Motorola, HTC and Samsuncg will have come up with somthing better based on the iP5 specs...

The cel phone war will never end, it will be the eternal peeing contest between large companies. As far as the consumer is concerned, we're just trapped in a vicious cycle we have created.

For me what weighs in, is the ability to have full control of my device. Therefore iP is a no go and thus a lesser device in my perception. Atrix was on top of the list until the Moto fiasco with the signed bootloader. The remaining option is the SGS2 depending on how easy it will be to update without relying on Samsung to do so.

On a side note, I've been using a iP3G since it came out and haven't upgraded the device, so I've been with it for almost 4 years; and seeing all these new android devices coming out everyday makes me hate it more day by day.

Android, for me, offers many more possibilities of growth than iOS will ever be able give me. I am not limited by a company as far as what I can do with the hardware that I hold in my hands.
[Galaxy S II General] phonex1:
I would rather take an operating system that is designed to let me do anything to it per my own needs and requirements than one that is marketed to the masses for mass consumption. There is nothing wrong with either, it is all preference. Apps fail to interest me as I have a busy and fun enough life to not care about too many of them :) In fact many people around me have pages of apps which i rarely see being launched except for the odd score checking/email app.

There is no point in comparison of the phone. In fact I would like it if Android makes its own features and chooses its direction instead of following iOS.
[Galaxy S II General] FLAC Vest:
Well I would say to just use for a little while and see if you like it. If you do, great. If you don't, sell it.

Either way you could sell one now or keep both and sell both layer then the SG2 comes out.

Did anyone get the iPhone reference in Archer? I totally loled
[Galaxy S II General] crossfire2500:
I agree. That's funny though. I actually just walked past a group of people with iPads and I just thought to myself, man, these people just have no idea. Well you know what they say, ignorance is idiocy, oops, I mean bliss.

[Galaxy S II General] 02busa:
LMFAO, There's sucker born every day...
[Galaxy S II General] FLAC Vest:
I love it when people say to get the iPhone if you just want it to work aand Android for customization.

If I do recall, I have never had any problems installing anything from the market on my phone; and everything else aalso just "works" along with more customization.
[Galaxy S II General] crossfire2500:
:cool:
[Galaxy S II General] tobin_o:
Yeah, I totally picked up on that iPhone joke-- love Archer :)
[Galaxy S II General] axesd:
Users on here are pretty dang sensitive with the term iPhone and the fruit APPLE!

Be careful. This is Android only my friend.

BUT my personal preference would go toward iPhone lol.

I am currently a Vibrant user =) and expecting for the SGS2 to come out!!! Cant WAITTT

I love how Apple have only ONE phone and keep improving on only ONE phone. Constantly with the fresh update. Easy to use. Unlike Samsung, froyo 2.2 in 6 months... On the other side, any phones with Android on mean the sky is the limit.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] webwude:
Hi everyone.

I noticed a very strange behaviour of my I9000 (2.2.1, JPY) the last weeks.

I am travelling a lot between Austria (Home country) and Germany. Usually i just untick "enable data roaming" as it is very expensive but leave data enabled.

From time to time, i use an adhoc connection to my laptop to update apps, synchronize with exchange to get the latest appointments, contacts, etc.

Now, in the last weeks i noticed, that all of a sudden (after the adhoc connection was terminated and the phone was idleing), there was a data connection. I am completely sure, that I DON'T enabled data roaming. Therefore there have to be anything else on my phone which enables this setting. :eek:

Is there any issue, that i missed - on the other hand, is there any way to examine this (Log or other sort of history) ? I know, I guess the easiest way would be to disable data completely in foreign countries, but this autoenabling of data roaming worries me...

Please, if anyone knows anything, please give me a hint, as it starts to get very expensive...

All the best, thank you for any answer,

ww

Update: i maybe have two suspects:

1. Background data (this was enabled when i last checked - maybe enable this (via E-Mail.app e.g.) enables data roaming too?

2. Auto update in market - i remembered that i ticked certain apps to auto update... maybe this is an issue...

I cannot tell that. I only got original SE batteries and they all are li-pol. But according to my knowledge about batteries both are good. Li-ion and Li-pol do not show the memory effect older batteries did. What really matters is the quality of the battery and the capacity (mAh).

Hello everybody. I have an issue with the screen wake up. I use this rom, the latest version. Everytime I end a conversation the screen is turning off. That is normal. But the problem is, I cannot wake it up afterwards. The hardkeys backlight is turning on for just a moment and off. The only solution is taking out battery and booting Android once again. I know that changing the build would might be helpful but this ROM is really fantastic and I would like to avoid changing it. Could anyone help with this? Thanks.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Auzeras:
Now I'm hoping this is the right place for this, samsung have so many versions of the Galaxy S and I didn't see a forum specifically for the i9000T so sincere apologies if there actually is one.

Recently Acquired an i9000 after not properly reading posts regarding that enabling 850MHz in Combi bands does NOT work, silly me :p. Unfortunately I need a galaxy that works on New Zealand's Telecom network (850 Mhz WCDMA)

So my plan is to sell the now useless (to me) i9000 and buy a Galaxy S that supports 850 WCDMA, I emailed bell Canada but they would not ship outside Canada so buying from them directly is out of the question. The "official" galaxy from the Telecom NZ store is 1000 NZD, compared to 650 NZD for the bell Canada version I refuse to pay such a heinous amount which is clearly a rip off.

Right now I am looking at the "international version" of the galaxy S on amazon however I want to make sure that it actually supports 850 MHz, it is listed as both i9000 and the i9000T so i'm not sure whether it does support 850 or not.

Does anyone know of a reliable seller of 850MHz Galaxy S phones or know if the one on amazon (not allowed to post links but the page can be found at amazon.com /Samsung-I9000-Galaxy-8GB-Bluetooth-International/dp/B003SIDVRA/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top[/url]) is actually an i9000T

Thanks for your time, its much appreciated!!

PS i don't know if this is allowed on these forums as such but if anyone wants to buy my Galaxy S PM me, looking at around 750 NZD

THIS POST IS COPY/PASTE FROM "DESIRE ANDROID DEVELOPMENT"...I THINK THIS IS RIGHT PLACE FOR THIS POST PERHAPS...

Hi there got some problems with ROM manager (latest version from Market)...

I put new LeeDroid on my SD card and when start ROM manager goes to "Install rom from sd card" RM asked me for directory and I "tell" him where the ROM is...when I tap on LeeDroid (.zip) ask me for ROM Pre-installation and I tick both options - OK - press Reboot into Clockwork Recovery and continue the installation. I press OK and nothing happened then

Then tried with untick both options - same thing...

Then I try Reboot into Recovery options and nothing happened again

Then download CyanogenMod 6.1.1. from ROM manager - same thing...nothing happened

But when I Reboot into Recovery mod (Hot reboot app) reboot was successfull and I was making System backup....

What is going wrong there

Please help me

Clockwork mode is 2.5.0.7.

P.S.

Sorry if my english is poor

Reboot to fastbot was my option :) and then reboot :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eden2812:
you should be selecting [choose .zip from card], then navigate to whatever you named your Leedroid zip.

After this installs and completes, select the option to reboot system, and you're good to go.

I am on aospCM's rom for my Hero and as such the market has some problems. To fix it, s0be found a way to do it. The commands are such:

I don't need step 3 since the directory exists.

Since I am flashing nightlies (or near nightlies as the case may be) typing all of these commands gets super tedious. I figured there has to be a way to do this in a .bat from Windows.

I have adb worked into my system shell (did this so I could use the SendTo menu to push to my phone) and I came up with this:

@echo off
adb connect 192.168.1.66
echo Time to fix the market
pause
adb shell su
adb shell chown system:cache /cache/download
adb shell chmod ug+rwx /cache/download
adb shell chmod a+x /cache/download
echo Done
pause

Yeah, that's what my phone charger outputs. The iPad/iPhone chargers have the same output as the Nook/Android phone, and they claim to be safe to use with either one. Not sure if that applies to android phones though, or if there needs to be some safety circuit in either the phone or the charger. Would love to only have to deal with one charger...
[Nook Color General] everalm:
It's 5 volts at UPTO 2 Amps. If your device can only draw 5W thats all it will do then overcharge protecton etc cuts in.

No problems.

As long as the voltage is correct you are good to go. The phone draws amps from it, it won't draw more amperage than it needs.
