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

Yes. They basically have the same internals. I have many versions of the Xoom Gameloft games that work perfectly.

[Q] beginner android phone, galaxy ace or wildfire s, or another one?

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.
Sent from my HTC_A510c using xda premium
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

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.

T-Mobile USA? No. T-Mobile USA Galaxy SII is the SGH-T989. That model has its own forum, you should go there. I9100 ROMs will not work on the SGH-T989 because they have completely different chipsets and hardware.
Yes you can if you flash any i9100 it will work great it will actully enable the 2 extra cores to make it quad core!!!!

[Q] Which phone should i go for?

Hello everyone!
I wanted to buy a new phone but i am a lil bit confused. I like to play HD games on my phone, surf internet, listen music,take pictures and a GOOD battery life. Here's the list of phones in which i m confused:-
1. HTC One X
2. Sony Xperia S
3. HTC One S
4. LG Lucid 4G
Which of the above phone should i go for?
Please help me out!!
It depends on what you want out of a phone. For example if you have giant hands you'll probably want a note. If your not a giant but still want a big screen, Galaxy Nexus. I have a Nexus and I'm amazingly happy with it and the community around it. Saying this the one X has had amazing reviews and has a quad core. Hopefully this enlightened you some what.
Edit: I don't personally like xperia phones and the software they come with. So that's why I didn't mention this one

Which phone is better is down to each person -
1. HTC One X (Hear alot of people not happy with phone)
2. Sony Xperia S ( Just dont go for sony)
3. Samsung Galaxy Nexus ( best choice)
4. Samsung Galaxy Note I1717 ( wait for the galaxy s3)
This is just my view but i would go for the galaxy s3 or the galaxy nexus, the s3 will be a popular phone and thus will get a lot of dev support.

Why would I suggest any other devices when I've already stated that I'm perfectly happy and still amazed every day of how awesome the Nexus is? It is dual core btw and runs every game flawlessly.

I know its dual core and after sometime every phone will be getting dual core. I don't like gnex because of the company samsung , I hate samsung (my opinion).
If it would be a HTC phone , i would have bought it by now.
And Brand matters to me.

First of all i don't like it designs at all and the way it copies the designs of other cell phones. In australia , a case has also been registered against Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1 for copying the design of Apple ipad .
I don't have any issues with any other company.

until HTC can figure out how to have a phone with decent battery life, I'd stay away. Not sure what the deal is. They make great phones outside of this.

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.

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 ?????
