Tomorrow i will receiving my Samsung galaxy at&t sgh-i777 from cowboom used condition 7(very good), i pay $320, now Google are offering galaxy nexus at $399 will be $437 to ship to Florida, USA this one come with one year warranty. You guys think is worth the $117 difference or i will be better keeping the galaxy s II.
Keep SGS II save money wait for the SGS III IMHO. I Think that the nexus is not really much of an upgrade from our phones.
u got ripped off paying that much for a used galaxy s2
Thanks god i can returned for free
Nexus is too overrated. Sgs 2 has better hardware. Software will always change but hardware will always stay the same.
Gs2 > Galaxy Nexus all day every day.

Yeah man that's not a good price considering ATT has (or had??) refurbished ones for $10.

Used i777 & Nex side by side.
i777 pretty much better in every way except for ICS. And if you're reading this forum.... you know ICS is very available. But as someone else pointed out... SIII right around the corner...
I don't think $350ish is *so* bad for an i777..........
Thanks all, i will returned and wait to may 3, and i am off contract

Why would you paid $10 for a refurbished one while you could get a brand new for 1 cent? LOL
Anyway, to OP, $320 seems to be a good price, hope you can trust the seller.
I bought a GN. I will get Jellybean first while GSII never will get it and SIII probably next year summer;-)

Yes maybe, the question is when. It hasn't even gotten ICS officially. I know there are custom roms for ICS but they have all still small issues.

Don't be so sure. The international Galaxy S2 got ICS before the Nexus S.
The unlocked GSII got ICS just 2 weeks ago. I have an AT&T branded GSII and we got nothing so far. The GN that I get is directly supported by Google so I am pretty sure that I get JB first.

You have been told wrong the processor that was built with/for ICS is the one in the samsung galaxy nexus by Texas instruments our Snapdragon chip was the fast cheaper solution for samsung when they discovered the Exynos chip was not good with LTE data they could have gone with the TI chip but it would have cost them double wich saves you from paying $
400 on contract $800 off the chip in the LTE version is not that bad ICS will speed it up but not as much as it will for the other mentioned chips
Our phones will fly once the Devs get them and put out some great ROMs
Right on thanks

Don't know about it being built for ICS, but when I tried it at CES, I saw that it will be soooo epic with ICS . I believe that is around March 1.

Boy you know that's a good question I've never thought about! Maybe when Samsung open sources it, the devs can extract the necessary framework and bake it in? Seems like it would be a HUGE miss if they didn't.

If I'm not mistaken, there has already been a leaked ics built from the international note. Cm9 teams will probably just use the spen stuff from there. If Sammy doesn't release ics AT&T built, then I'm sure they can use the international spen stuff. The only difference (I think) is the physical button color change.

Samsung has already released an S-pen sdk for developers, so fear not, cm9 will most likely have the support for it.

Ok so i have had my galaxy s captivate for 1.5 years and love it. ATT now has a sale until March 28th to get the sgs2 for 9.99 as my upgrade. My question is should i grab this great deal or wait on the sgs3 which is going to be expensive as hell.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
You should definitely get it!
Development has skyrocketed for the Galaxy S II and there's dozens of ROMs available, but the Galaxy S III seems ok but if you're impatient for ROMs 'n' stuff you're better with the Galaxy S II.
better wait for sgs3 and see what it offers and its price and sgs2 price will drop after sgs3
If price is a factor go for it. The S2 is a massive upgrade from the S1.
Sent from my GT-I9100T
if you can wait and afford it, then theres no question. the s3. no amount of roms can make 8 mp 12, dual core into 4 and so on. youll be competing with the best of the high end the likes of the s2 and the 4s.
unless the s3 turns out to be a pile of snot upon release ofcourse.
as an s2 owner since last may, i can say that i picked a gnexus on upgrade but found that the s2 was on a par or better in some respects. the s3, if it bests the s2, is a no brainer.
If that 9.99 is a one off payment its a bet to nothing .

Thanks for the replies. Gonna grab it after work at 5. Any ICS roms recommended or should i stick with GB?

This means he is an AT&T user in the USA, and is talking about an upgrade to the Galaxy SII for AT&T, or the Skyrocket. No chance he'll be able to upgrade to the GT-I9100. AT&T doesn't offer the I9100 at all.
OP, ATT has their own model of Galaxy SII, which is the SGH-I777, and another variant for LTE called the Skyrocket, which is the SGH-I727.
You are currently in the forum for the GT-I9100, which is the international model of the Galaxy SII. There are similarities between the SGH-I777 and the GT-I9100, but there are differences as well. Firmwares are not totally compatible between the two. If you flash an I777 firmware to an I9100, or vice versa, it won't TOTALLY break your phone, but things won't work right.
The I727 (Skyrocket) has completely a different SoC/chipset, so firmwares are COMPLETELY not compatible with either the I777 OR the I9100.
The SGH-I777 and SGH-I727 both have their own forums.
I777 forum here.

No worries; I just want you to be fully informed. It would suck for you to have gotten one of the phones, and try to flash a ROM from THIS forum. If you had gotten the regular Galaxy SII, it would have just acted weird. If you had gotten the Skyrocket, you probably would have completely bricked the phone.

I'm curious if anyone here will be grabbing the GS3 later this week when it's released? I'm not up for resigning until later this year but honestly am very interested in getting one.. Obviously the specs are not up to the international version but still higher then out GS2s...
Also hoping the Devs here on our forum are going GS3, loved their work and I have a feeling we're going to need them to do to the GS3 what they did for our GS2s, get rid of the bloatware and find ways to improve battery life for starters

Have you checked the status of your pre-order?? Wondering if there is any truth to the rumors it may be delayed??
Was hoping to have mine by the end of the week BUT I just talked to AT&T and it is now backordered. I pre-ordered at midnight the 6th so i 'should' be one of the first...we shall see.

Yes..I would never buy a non international compatible android phone again.
written in your mud with my stick.
the one X is a fine bit of hardware. Mind you it's far from my first choice, but like the other poster said, do the trade if they aren't stolen, sell one or both of them and buy yourself what you want, chances are you'll walk away with cash in your pocket and a newer phone. Though if he's offering 2 phones, both of which cost way more than the note's worth on the open market there's a VERY good chance that they're stolen. You know the saying, if it's too good to be true...
