[Q] [q] porting gb from sgs / nexus s ? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello, maybe 2 days again, my fascinate will arrive
now i'm still using droid incredible
since i'm new in samsung world, i'm very2 happy will be using superamoled, humingbird phone from "ordinary amoled" and older processor type
but I have a question about fascinate:
why there is no porting ginggerbread from galaxy s I9000 or nexus s phone ? since it is using the same processor and gpu ... sgs using the same superamoled also ...
because on incredible there is many2 rom and kernel (even radio) that porting from nexus 1, desire, and evo .. that using the same processor, and other hardware (radio and kernel usually taken from evo)
sorry for this is silly question, i'm totally new to samsung world (and can't wait to use it)
thank you very much before.
I love android .. ou Yeah !
DROID 1 > DROID INCREDIBLE 1 > FASCINATE !

Well, simply put, it's not even a fraction of that simple. The fascinate is one of the most difficult phones to dev for. And Samsung is known for giving us almost totally unusuable code.
Sent a long time ago from a galaxy far far away

while some things (certain libs, mods, etc) have been ported from other sgs phones...most things cannot and simply put: we are on our own

thankx for both of you reply, this is more clearing my mind, and also I just know last night, even sgs just receive gb update last month, so it's just early ....
I can't imagine, this good hardware not followed by good software update from samsung ... if samsung could get community support (read devs) like htc ... I think samsung be SUPER GIANT phone maker.
lucky still have devs like both of you.

The specs aren't confirmed yet. Just so called "leaks" are about the place.

There are more by the way.
this Nexsus sound like something great if thsoe leaks r gonna be specs ( I like big screens so if its bigger then HD the merrier)

New Android Phone Opinions

So I've had my Droid Incredible since it came out and loved it. I was eligible for a new phone a few weeks ago but wasn't quite ready. Today I figured out my accelerometer died and it's annoying me to death. So I'm going to take the plunge. I'm currently with Verizon, so it'd have to be a Verizon phone. I don't want anything with a slide out keyboard. Other than that, I'm open to suggestions. My first thoughts were:
Samsung Galaxy Nexus
LG Spectrum
Droid RAZR
Now, the other question I have is, should I stick it out for something coming next month like the Droid Incredible 4G, GSIII, or *prays* the ASUS Padfone?
I would wait for new wave of phones if I were you.maybe better performance dualcore phones with big battery and cool new screen tech.Iam sure Verizon will get some badboyz soon.
Ps;get something with icecream sandwich out of box.waiting is killing me

If you are into flashing ROMs and modding then you are going to want the Nexus since its a Nexus. The Razr is a nice phone hardware wise but it comes with Motorola's locked bootloader and delayed ICS.
I've had the first galaxy since it came out and its awesome! Its obviously a really old device so it doesnt handle somethings too well, but i still love it.
Im super stoked for the galaxy 3. I would suggest getting that phone!

Good point. Forgot about Motorola's locked bootloaders.
i have the spectrum and i love it... its fast no lagging... battery life for my dad which is about normal usage is about 16 hours...
it has been rooted.. and it has clockworkmod.. but if you plan on using custom roms this is not the phone to choose... we had 1 dev working on cm7 and today he posted that he was giving up because he cant get it to flash properly..
if you have the money for it i would choose the galaxy nexus.... the nexus devices have more dev support than any other phones
Well i would say that if you cant wait and have to make choice from Samsung Galaxy Nexus,LG Spectrum,Droid RAZR then choose Nexus....but if you can wait then go for S3 .....I am hoping the Galaxy S3 when it finally comes will bring the best of the Galaxy S range along with Android 4.0 ICS.

Help me choose one !!

Well as the title suggests ..help me choose one from the following phones ....
Lg optimus 2x
HTC sensation
Motorola atrix 2
Basically all have more or less similar specs but what would be better to get at the moment ...really confused :what:
Any suggestion would be helpful ...
Thanks !!!

Looking for cheap dual core phone like above and which can play 1080p videos .....
Sent from my GT-S5830 using Tapatalk
I think HTC Sensation would be the best choice.
I also wanted to.mention that which of them can best handle high definition mkv files ???
Sent from my GT-S5830 using Tapatalk
Considering none of those phones have an hd resolution let alone 1080, it would be a waste of battery power and storage space to play this type of file. If you can, rip the videos to the native resolution of the phone and you won't have any issues playing videos on any of those devices.

1. Optimus 2X- You should go for this since it is an excellent device. It's graphic benchmark scores are the one of the highest to this date. It has a fast tegra 2 dual core processor, fine resolution, a lot of customizations (via custom roms), and much more. The only cons for this device is it's appearance - I'm sure you can live with that.
2. HTC Sensation- The problem is with the firmware. Some of the most famous issue with the sensation is 1). Sense screen hangs on some incoming calls making you unable to receive call and 2). The sense restart. Root your phone and install a custom Rom else take it to the service centre to flash the firmware and everything will be fine.
Let's go on the other point of Sensation.
Now there are few food things to mention first about HTC sensation.:
Wonderful user interface.
Very smooth browsing.
Good virtual keyboard.
Very good WiFi speed, and 3g is also pretty fast.
Very easy to handle, perfect in shape... Not took big, but best in size.
Bright interface.
Now let's talk about the negative aspects:
RAM should have been 1gb, but is slightly lesser, but doesn't matter too much.
Very bad loud speaker quality.
Front camera is vga, should have been atleast 2mp.
No video calling facility. But video calling can be done using software like SkyPE.
Sometimes the HTC sense UI crashes when using some heavy applications.
3. Motorola Atrix 2
I dont have a Atrix 2 but people are facing little bit problems with this phone.
Over all you can pick up the phone as per your choice.

I agree I think that the LG is the best of these phones. Personally I don't like sense and htc overall because of their bootloaders and other stuff but LG is just fine. It's easy to root and load up custom roms. I also have an LG and those are the reasons I took it instead of htc wildfire. I also think its faster and the LG doesn't have the infamous sense fc.
Sent from my Optimus Me using xda premium
Must it be out of these three?
1. Optimus 2X will only be getting ICS in Q3 after just getting Gingerbread 2.3.4 in Nov last year.
2. HTC Sensation has been notoriously known to have unresponsive touch screen and a palm death grip. Not all Sensations, but quite significant amount and probability. Like my only one friend that owns one, and his house mate..
3. Motorola only just recently updated its ICS plans for their devices and Atrix 2 is getting ICS in Q3 as well and other than that I do not know much about its goods and bads.
What I want to suggest is, why not consider a Galaxy S2? At least, the international version GT-I9100? Because it has already gotten ICS and the dev support is huge therefore it is easy to root and have the latest firmwares (mainly also because Samsung did not lock its bootloader like HTC).
p.s. I wanted to post links to support what I said but I couldn't because I have not posted enough yet..

Hi have you read my reply yet? I realised we posted at the same time..
I would advise against an LG phone, they are notoriously poor quality. Maybe they have improved in recent years, but I know they did have a bad reputation and the LG I had for a while wasn't excellent. Some functions stopped working within days of getting the phone and would only work again after doing a factory reset and then it would only be a few days again. And occasionally it would randomly refuse to send or receive texts.
But maybe they have improved?

Recently read The Verge's review on their second latest flagship, LG Optimus 3D Max, apparently not. Just more rip-off design of Samsung (eg. the Galaxy S2 hump at the back) and poor software (e.g. Camera app crashing)..

Idk I have used my LG Optimus Me for about 5 months on stock before loading up CM7.2 Everything worked flawlessly and perfect. I never had go restart it or do anything to fix it. It just...worked So I would go for the LG. The only bad side was their customer support. I sent them a email regarding software updates. They said my phone will get upgrade. Two months later they said that it won't. And they won't give source codes for our device and their reluctance to do so gets on my nerves since it holds up development. But maybe its just because back then my Me was a mid-range device.

I think having CM7.2 work flawlessly on your Optimus ME is all thanks to the Cyanogenmod team, not LG. And like you said, what LG is doing is holding up the development of their devices, unlike Samsung.
So if the OP can also consider getting a Galaxy S2, that will be great
Thanks for your replies guys ....
Might just pull me up against lg....
But I think sensation or atrix would be to choose from ....
And about s2 ...its a bit out of my reach here ...costly still ...I would have got that for sure if I had enough $$$

Not exactly CM team but still not tanks to LG. But I think you misunderstood me. Stock Froyo was working perfectly. I went to CM for a bigger version of Android and more features. It is true however that LG holds up development but only of custom roms.

Well if the difference of the Galaxy S2 is too much then I would suggest Sensation because its dev support seems to be better than the other 2. Plus the international version of Sensation has already gotten its ICS update as well. So it has many ROMs available and also supported by the latest MIUI 4 if not CM9.

[Q] What phone will be best for me ?

Hi, I'm now using iPhone 4 and i looked over android, i cant see now how i used iOS!?
now i looked for the best phone for me, and i chose gNexus, i liked the clear android over Sense and much over touchwiz! , i tried to get one and it didn't worked out (i want to buy my next phone in USA, i live in Israel and in USA its much(!) cheaper!)
so my sis going to NY in the next month, and that is my opportunity to get new phone. but then i realized the nexus has poor hardware, and im not sure is gonna last 2 years as main phone !
I'm considering the S3 which is beast in hardware , but going to be beast so its not going to be unique and that something i really want after iphone 4! another thing is that its not nexus, and the updates will come late! pros are battery , quad core , giant screen , 50g at dropbox)
another phone I'm thinking of is the One X, This phone is awesome!! its beautiful! Sense is beautiful!, its also a beast in hardware! but that's the end,
i heard that the battery is poor, its still heavy because the sense 4, the video frame rate is poor, and i even heard on poor performance on NOVA . so it turned me off..
im sorry for the long thread, but my next phone, and my first android phone is very important for me, its going to be my phone for the next 2 years.
Thank you very much XDA (BTW , i searched allot about every phone, but what i need here is personal experience , something that not always objective).
I would recommend checking out HTC. They have very productive, useful devices.

i wrote about the one x!
the one x looks awesome but he got so many flaws and bad disappointments! ): if i wasnt reading so much little bad things about him i was sure he is the one for me but no , there is to many little flaws!
Look up the HTC Inspire. I heard its the best there is.
Sent from my SGH-T759 using xda app-developers app
looks lame !
its look old and weak !
another suggestions?
So right now there's 3 phones you have your eyes on, but still open to suggestions.
I would suggest the Galaxy S III if you are looking for a phone for two years.
Galaxy Nexus is a very wonderful phone. Best selling point would be that its fast to get updates, but hardware is already dated since its been released over half a year ago.
HTC One X is beautiful, but that's all. Its beautiful, but doesn't really have any other features that would put it above the Galaxy S III. I see the One X as a device that's an improvement over the Galaxy Nexus in terms of speed and power, but nothing spectacular.
Galaxy S III on the other hand is comparable to the One X in terms of speed and most likely surpassing it in that field too. Beyond that, there are many other features that are equal to the One X and has quite a few features that the One X does not have.
I vote for the S III mainly because it offers more in terms of hardware and software.
I think Samsung Galaxy SIII or Nexus. Or wait for HTC One XXL.
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
Varience,
thanks for your helpful comment! you summarized the subject pretty good , i think i choose the SIII over the others, because he is the combination between good hardware and allot of Roms (im sure he will get allot of roms).
to ServeTT the HTC One XXL sound really good on paper !!! (but so do the one x)
when will he come out ?
the phone i really want, is the next nexus, all the benefits of the current awesome nexus plus hardware that last 2 years and not one thats already is old
I am quite against buying HTC devices. They don't support our development community and sense is hideous and slow. The only thing I like is their build quality ..
I would get a Samsung galaxy s3, touchwiz 5 jellybean and ics actually looks pretty good!. There buold quality is better for the s3, Plus Sammy supports our development
But over all I love the galaxy nexus phones the best cause they look so good and are pure . But maybe wait for the new nexus to come out, it will be the best phone in hardware and software. And will get all updates.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
HTC One X - OUT - by reading, its beautiful and thats it, its close, and not as good as others..
S3 or the next Nexus , That is the question!
When the next nexus predicted to be released ?
if more than month (that is almost sure thing),
i think it will be the S3, its the strongest hardware, and its development community have to be great!, thanks you all !

You cannot compare our Vibrant with new devices. Even if the vibrant still rocks there's a huge difference compared with new devices. Just got my S3 and i can't believe how fast it is. Very easy to feel few years of technology.

I think unless you want to play high end games, you don't need a new device (since we still get Android 4.0+ apps). The Vibrant hasn't supported the big flagship games in a long time, yet somehow the N64, PSP, and the NDS (this one is pretty slow) emulaltors run games like Family Guy for the PSP or Paper Mario for N64 pretty well. The Vibrant also seems to lack a reliable GPS and lacks NFC. Not only that from what we konw about Android 4.3 (OpenGL ES 3.0 and low energy Bluetooth support); it won't really benefit the Vibrant all that much. I think at the worst, the Vibrant is becoming that old laptop that you give to kids or "technology-challenged" people for light gaming and web use. This device still gives a great Android 4.2 expirenece which shows that it attracted some great devs and Samsung made hardware that was well beyond its time. Still, if you want a new device, go for it. There will always be reasons to upgrade, that's why some people upgrade their phones annually.
As for me, I'm waiting for T-Mobile's LTE-Advanced network (and a phone that can that can theoretically support support 150 mb/s downloads) but might upgrade earlier for OpenGL ES 3.0 support (because the GameCube emulator and eventually flagship games will require it)!

S4 mini seems to be the best upgrade (especially in terms of screen size). Sometimes I feel the lack of more RAM memory.
Other than that, I'm fine with it, the CPU is not painfully slow.

I'm still using mine until it dies. It will be a sad day for me when it happens, and I'm sure I'll be wowed by the difference my new phone will make.
My Vibrant was an insurance replacement for my Nexus One, and I hated it at the time. Luckily, people way smarter than me have kept this phone relevant.
Even if I upgrade, I'll still keep this one around. One day these older flagship phones will be like classic cars.
Damn, I'm getting old.
