ok so i have 2 S1 phones and 2 S3 phones. i loved the S1 and has been great to me and i bought the S3's because they are power houses BUT its not comforatble to me and i like the S2 look and feel and size of it is just righ tto me and i know that with so many differnt types which would be best??
i live in the UK so basicly im looking for what you guys thing will be the best version of the S2 to get. i dont play any games on phone, well i have unblock me for times when im bored but mostly its internet surfing, personal money tracking and emails.
anyhow if oyu could haev any S2 which version would you get and Y?? thanks guys/girls
I would say the 9100 is the best variant.
It has a great development section and is a great device

get the I9100P if you are interest in using the NFC feature in the future.
otherwise the international version is fine.
It truly Depends...
What you need and in what u are interested...
Like SGS II X and HD LTE have greater Hardware... But i9100 have best development support
Peace
Hit Thanks & It will Disappear

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

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.

just check the threads of both the phones( Htc one X and galaxy s3) and see peoples views on the same and then u can decide for urself
Oh yeah. Why not buy both ?
Mate seriously wrong FORUM... Ask it in S3 or One X thread.. Ppl here uses S2 so i would recommend u to buy another S2...

thanx for another option actually have some memory issues due to a traffic accident sorry
Or buy another S2 to make this topic relevant in this forum
I would say s3 just upgraded from s2 also used hox s3 would be better but again that's my choice go to a shop and try running both
bought s3 well not much of a difference apart from screen battery and some software changes. Close the thread please

The Galaxy S2 is as fast as the S3 at stock speeds and as fast or faster than the HTC One X if overclocked scoring around 5000 in quadrant, I think the S2 is a better phone than the other two.

Galaxy S2 is the best choice

s3 best of them
if u like the taste of sense 4.0 then go for the ONE X
in my opinion the S3 is better because both have the same HW specs but samsung devices are more customizable than HTC ones
Best look if you love sense: HTC One X
Best hardware: SGSIII
Best software: Galaxy Nexus/Nexus 7
It all depends on what you prefer, looks, awesome hardware for gaming and such, or best software with the quickest updates to the latest Android version

Htc One X is not that great from,i prefer s2 to one x and i think one S better in Htc's ,S2 still a realy nice device,super quick with Jelly bean and cheaper now but if money is no object,get an S3
oK Guys im going to buy a new S2 of ebay wan basically wanted to know which version of the S2 is the best to buy
Depends on what country your in and intend to use it in, But generally I would recommend the international version GT I9100
The plain gt-i9100.
I have to agree with the above users. The international one is the easiest to handle when it comes to rooting, flashing etc A lot less hustle imho

Hey guys. I'm using a phone called the SHV-E110S that is the Korean version of the Samsung galaxy s2 lte. The phones custom rom developments are really slow and buggy so I've been wondering if roms could be ported from other phones such as the s2 Hercules and the s2 skyrocket. I've been told that it is possible. When I flash the skyrocket rom over my phone, my lit up buttons and sound won't work. Does that mean that there is a problem with the kernel? If so, how can I port or compile to make the rom work on my phone? If anyone is free to help, just lemme know asap because I'm a newbie in this kinda thing and it'd be real nice with a proper custom rom. Thanks in advance
