Do you mean a tablet? I would get a better tablet/keyboard combo before I spent the money on the lapdock just from what I've heard from others.

well i mean like , you could just get the webtop for your tv like the mod one ? without buying the whole thing . then just get the tablet so you can have both
hey guys,
i'm currently doing some research for the 14 y/o brother of a friend, whose parents have just allowed him to get a smart phone.
i only ever bought nexus devices and would recommend him the nexus s, but unfortunately his limit is ~180 euro and the nexus s is ~270 euro here in germany. thus i need some advice.
he can't decide between the galaxy ace and the wildfire s. which one would you pick? i'm looking for things like easily unlockable bootloader, stock android and cyanogenmod support. but those things seem to only be found in older, cheaper devices.
what would you say has the best bang of the buck and is future proof and could possibly get cyanogenmod support?
thanks,
x
I would go for the galaxy ace because it has more development.

yup, that's my observation so far. there's even an unofficial cm7 port for it.
until i can come up w/ an official supported device in the price class, i'm gonna tell him to go for the ace, or if possible pay 100 bucks more for the nexus s.
Yeh galaxy ace if you want to root it, wildfire s has not been cracked open yet so has very little support

Not true .
galaxy ace..
samsung updates their firmware fast compare to htc..
I would go with ace.
However i found only one issue where you will need to remove the battery to get it back to work. When you enable the wifi and leave the phone idle for a long time, the screen goes blank and none of the button seems to work. You will have to pull the battery to fix it.
Lol looks like someone prefers form over function.

I was just saying that not any samsung phone could "fit the bill" .
Galaxy Ace for sure. It has more support, plus, he's 14, I'm sure he and his friends will care about the looks a lot. Teenagers are very judgmental really.
Really like and want that c-pen for the s3. Is it compatible with the s2? If not cannot be ported?

It should work as it's just a capacitive stylus. I have a capacitive stylus purchased from Amazon which works fine on my S II. The only thing Samsung state with that C-Pen is that it's "optimized for the Galaxy S III screen" with similar design traits.

If its just software based issue, then it should be an easy port.

No I don't think so maybe it will be compatible with the galaxy note that also had that feature

It will work, but you have to push hard for it to work
I have the Tab 10.1 and its rooted. But instead of flashing one of the roms available for the tab 10.1, I would like to flash a HTC Sense rom. Is that possible? If so, How can i do that?
(this might be a noob sorta question, but then I am a noob at this)
You can't. HTC roms are for HTC devices, Samsung roms are for Samsung devices and so on... Each device has different hardware. Only roms for galaxy tab 10.1 work.

If you port it it is possible of course. But you can't install/flash it "as is"!

Is there a website for forum where i might be able to get instructions on "porting" ?

Well, you're on xda! What better place to search? I bet Google has some answers too. But I am no expert. I can't be of any more help

Wasn't there a tutorial posted not too long ago on porting in the main page?
I'd like to know if the camera will work in this port. Also, will it become an HTC camera?
No, because the camera uses Samsung drivers.

OK, but you didn't answer my other question: will the camera become an HTC camera?
Tried to root galaxy tablet 10.1; followed all steps and was able to root my first tablet. Problem was I had no 4g only wifi. Does anyone know where I can get the correct rom? Also I notice that some of the newer 10.1 tablets have 4.0 firmware.

Exactly what makes me question the statement.
Is it even going to be out on Nexus by that time?
Idc as long as samsung releases official source and blobs. Is it coming for both 5.8 and 6.3? Thats the main question.

I have galaxy grand duos also... Normally people are sharing correct news in that forum ... Like they shared earlier for 4.2.2 in galaxy grand ... i copied this info from their group ... Lets see how much authentic it turns out to be ...
S2 but Not Note II xD what a joke xD

You can obviously tell this isn't entirely correct. I doubt Samsung will update the S2 and Note 1 but not the Note 2. I'll be surprised if the S2 even gets an update. When it got jellybean it was a pleasant surprise.

My thoughts exactly, I can't see them still supporting the S2 at this point. Looking forward to seeing if this pans out for the Mega though.

I would not be surprised. The post says KitKat especially targets low-memory devices as one of its selling points is a new kernel with a smaller footprint to enable apps run smoother on low-memory devices.
You mean october 2014?
Well I doubt samsung will update s2 and other same year models to kitkat.
Anyone who believes that list of devices is anything other than fantasy is very gullible. There is no way on earth the Note 1 will get an official upgrade to 4.4.

Not an official update i believe but maybe a custom rom for it as i have my note 1 on 4.3 now for a while already...backup phone that is for now.
Help Me !!
Do you know if the Samsung Galaxy Duos FAME S6812B will also receive?
I love how they made it sound like 4.4 would be able to be loaded on all Android devices like you do say windows on any pc, yet here we are having to wait for them to "roll it out". It's why I don't bother worrying about updates and getting inferior devices like the Nexus phones. lol.
Hmmmm did samsung skip 4.2.2 [4.3] 4.4 ?????
Well.... the original post said October. ... hmmmm...a bit late so far.
