Thinking of going from Android to Windows. Has anyone else made the move and regrets it? Or is anyone happy about the move?
Explain why
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
I've had plenty of phones, I most recently had a Galaxy Note and an iPhone 5 and I've made the move to a Lumia 920 and I am very happy with the decision. No matter what device or platform you choose there will always be pros and cons. Windows Phone is quick, simple and stable, I enjoy the UI, theres a lot to like here. You won't get the customization you get with Android. I've been using iPhones since the original and I was ready to try something different and I'm glad I did.

Well considering it's a very pricey phone it may be a month or so till I get one. Maybe if I can trade my Gnex or sell it

I've had two iPhones and three Android phones and I have no regret about moving to the Lumia 920. Smooth, fast and reliable. I'm typing this from my nexus 7 with the latest version of Android and it's still clunky compared to Windows Phone 8.

hi everyone,
i am also looking at moving to the nokia 920 it looks amazing. and i want something new, i am over the iphone's and andriods but i have a few questions.
i am an avid video watcher on my train rides into work and comic book reader. I am curious, do i need to convert my movies to the what ever format windows 8 movie format ? how easy is it to sync data with your workstation ? i am trying to find out about more but having a lot of trouble finding out info on windows 8 mobile, any feedback would be great.
Don't know about the sync question but my Windows 7 machine automatically converted vob files before transferring to the phone and wmv and mp4 pay just fine.

Well one of the criticisms of wp8 is that it lacks apps. Does the combo completely thrash away that argument? Is there anything lacking in this combo that you can do with some other phone like an iPhone.

It's my media player first . Music, games, everything! Only qualm is that the music app loads up slowly and lags on my Lumia 920 - that, and DrawSomething. Everything else works like a charm.
Contacts
I am just wondering ......how do you transfer all the contacts from Google to Windows 8 phone
Ive moved from Android (galaxy nexus) to Lumia 920. So far pretty good. Really enjoying it. The music app isn't that great (troubles syncing in Win8, no search function). Needs a little more work/features
The battery life I think is actually pretty decent. Standby time is amazing!
Facebook app isn't very good.. Hopefully this gets updated

Contact sync is easy since MS sort of integrated it into the OS. Just create a Google account using your Google login and all your contacts will sync.

I guess one of the benefits would be to hook your phone up to it at work and pretend to be working on the computer while you are actually texting or playing poker. I dunno.
i used to be able to do something similar over bluetooth or wifi a few years back, but i have yet to find the program i used, and i will assume you would need to be rooted. its a cool idea in many ways, but its use i feel is more of a cool or sneaky factor.
Yeah, I am hard pressed to find a really good reason to buy one. Being cool is a good reason though.

Now there is Airdroid in Google Play. Free app that does not need root and is very cool. Works over WiFi.

The root method your probably thinking of is called screen casting using droid explorer. Pretty useful if you work in a strict office environment.

Hey guys!
So I love my Nexus 10... but I don't know what to do with it!
I watch videos and read pdfs on it, but these two don't really take up much time.
I wanna use my Nexus for more things but I don't know what!
What do you guys do on your Nexus 10?
First world problems... why did you buy your Nexus 10 anyway?
Start shifting your PC tasks over to it. Web browsing for one. This forum, for that matter. A Bluetooth keyboard and mouse and you'll be surprised at how much productivity you can get out of it.

I use it for almost anything, as I got rid of my laptop so all I have now is my N10 and my cellphones. Movies, music, shopping, messaging, reading up on stuff,and prett heavy on emails and evernote my work needs, skyping. So yeah pretty much everthing I would do on my laptop.

Google Voice is free, and allows you to text mobile numbers.
I duct taped my Nexus 10 to a Swiffer today and mopped the floor with it.. It also makes a great spatula for getting fresh baked chocolate chip cookies off the baking pan

But then you have to change your number to a GV number, and doing that would be problematic for me. Am I right in thinking this?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Change what number? Your tablet isn't a phone. It links to your GMail account, and you can create a new phone number that can ring your devices on making a new account. If you mean texting people with your actual phone number then yea that might be an issue, as it shows on their phone as your GV number.
Wouldn't it use a new phone number for the texts?

Blame Microsoft, its their fault what devices they allow to dl their apps. I agree it's retarded, it took forever for them to even support Nexus 7.

If they could get the full blown versions of the Adobe Creative Suite Master Collection and the Nik Software plugins to work strictly on the Note 2 I would say yes I could even though I won't be getting my Note 2 till this Wednesday(thank you IRS). Other than that I still need my Macbook Pro for work and school.
I'll be brief and to the point, no.
While most of what I do is not compute intensive, I do require lots of screen real estate. Too many things running simultaneously to do what I do.
Some tasks like ripping blu-ray discs to a NAS device simply cannot be done on the phone.

I am currently using the Galaxy Note 2 as the only computer and cord cutting entertainment device. Not by choice, but by necessity.
There is a learning curve in trying to do on this device that I used to do on a computer. Specially with word processing like floating text boxes. But I am doing it all on this Galaxy Note 2.
On the entertainment side of things I only missing a few shows that you can only get on iTunes that I can't get on Android. And I need to get the AllShare Cast Wireless Hub or better yet Galaxy Note II Smart Dock. So I can watch video on a larger screen. But beyond that I get all other videos, music, and gaming I like on this device.
As long as you have enough bandwidth and the right accessories you can use your Galaxy Note 2 as your computer and entertainment center. After all this device is really a computer in your hands.

Will this device replace a computer for everyone? No.
It depends on your lifestyle at the moment. If you are more mobile lifestyle then yes. But if you are someone who rips your CDs or do other things that demand a device that has different compatibilities than PPC devices, then the answer is no.
In order for Android to get to that point there needs to be evolution in technology. Like what happens when you get into your new car with your Android. Your home network needs to recognize your Android. Then allow your Android to wireless connect to a keyboard, mouse, speakers, monitor, external hard drive, external DVD drive, printer etc for computer work. Allow you to wireless connect to your TV/monitor, home theater center, etc for entertainment purposes. And lastly wireless connect your Android to your home and appliances so your home and appliances can do what you want to them to do.
AllShare Cast Wireless Hub is a good start. But still missing so much in so many areas.
Once we get there, then these devices can become the only device you ever need.

For me the N2 has come closer than other device I have owned to be a suitable replacement for my laptop. I even gave my Motorola Xoom to my daughter as I find I have more functionality and enjoy using the N2 more than either device. So to answer the question of survival........I'm not there just yet. Using Word and Excel software on any Android device is still a challenge for me and as I use these program on a daily basis I would unfortunately not survive very long.

Outside of work, this has basically replaced my computer. I rarely if ever turn on my computer at home. My IPod has been put away, something I couldn't do with my Droid X as music/radio would kill my battery.
However for work purposes, I have to use both Macs and PCs and I don't see that ever changing due to the machines/software I need for my job.

Guys. I recently exchanged my iPhone 5 for a droid DNA thru craigslist. I am coming to android after almost a year and I was hoping to root and install sense 5.0 roms. So after doing the swap at the verizon store and finally sitting in front of the computer to start the s-off and rooting process I discoverd after an hour of unsuccessful attempts that since I am running software version 2.0.65.xxx I won't be able to unlock or root. I got the phone with that software and from my past experience, just assumed that everything would work out.
Since there is quite of bit of topics and items involving this device, I just wanted to confirm my understanding that there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY to root the droid DNA if its running 2.0 version. Correct ?? No downgrading with an earlier RUU possible either. ... correct ?

From what I heard they were stopping asking for beta testers, so that usually means they have enough people testing.
I couldn't wait and just bought another phone. It might be weeks or they might not be able to unlock full functionality.
They had to wait for HTC to release the source which is why its taking so long.

You said thru CLs? Restart the phone holding VOL down to boot into fastboot, what does it say at the top of the screen? tampered, unlocked, locked? If you are lucky maybe someone rooted and unlocked before the update. Just saying, if it was me I would check.
Someone wanted an Iphone? LOL
I *think* I remember reading one of the devs mentioning that new things were encrypted on the ota and that is causing some problems getting supercid. Since I read it really late at night when I was drowsy I cannot remember where I read it.

Not 3 days. I am not new to android. I come from the line of OG droid and then droid incredible and then thunderbolt. I've actually written codes for various Roms before and also done quite a bit of theming. I just got to a point where I couldn't devote as much time to developing anymore. I had switched to the iPhone after the thunderbolt and found it refreshing and appealing to my engineering sensibilities. I recently came back to the android world via the droid DNA. Unfortunately it just doesn't click with me anymore. The gigantic screen, the unpolished OS and what a bummer it is to find out that even with a quad core processor, this phone lags and stutters at time. Don't get me wrong. I am not bashing android users. I just saying that the simplicity and refinement of iOS along with the practicality of a handy sized phone , just seems to suit me better.

Wizeguy highly recommends Nova launcher to get rid of the lag.
As far as liking one OS over another, it's personal preference and no one here will hate you for going to Apple. Maybe we'll see you back soon and you can do somethings for the DNA.
