Does anybody know if the galaxy gear smartwatch or any other smartwatch is or can be made to work with the droid dna? Thanks!
no. it won't work with the Droid DNA. These samsung smart watches are designed for samsung phone such as the Galaxy S5 , Galaxy S4, Note 3, etc..
I've heard about the gear working on the nexus 5 so it may work on aosp or cm roms.

I have the pebble smart watch. Love it. Does what I want it to. Last six days on a charge. Idk what all yer looking for. The pebble can't make calls, but it gives you any notification you want. I'd do some reading on the gear. It doesn't have very good reviews, and last I knew the gear only works on Samsung devices.

I have a Sony smartwatch that a friend gave me. It works just fine with the DNA.

I love my pebble. I have no desire to get a galaxy gear because I love it so much. That being said, afaik as long as you have root access you can make the galaxy gear work on any phone, you just need the right supporting apk's from touchwiz. That's how people have gotten it working on the nexus 5. I don't know how well it works though, my guess would be not as well as it does on a Samsung phone.

I'm hoping to still get several more months, maybe a year, out of my Vibrant, so that's TBD right now. But if it died on me today I'd pick up a Galaxy Nexus since they're (relatively) cheap without a contract.
S III. Going to get an upgrade on October, so might as well, unless a better phone comes out during then (not planning to get an iPhone any time in the future.)

Same!
My 2 years are officially up in August. I'm hoping there will be some sort of leak for the next Nexus phone because I'm not blown away with the S3. :/
I think I could get another 6-8 months out of my phone but I'd rather upgrade to a phone that actually allows me to get 4G data and fully functional GPS.
Next iPhone
One x
Note 2
Or one of the next Nexus phones.
I'm waiting for the padfone myself.
Already have the GSM Nexus, but I switch off every other day with my Vibe. I just love the Vibe!

Also plan on getting a Note when they solve the emmc bricking issue. I am tempted by the GS III, but I need to play with one first.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
So far all indications point towards me getting a GS3
I got a GSM Nexus Prime.
So far, I love everything about it. Especially the lack of bugs (and abundance of features) in AOSP based roms and kernels!

I'm curious what it is about the Vibrant that you like over the Nexus that keeps you going back to it? Been looking at the Nexus, but still really satisfied with my Vibrant and don't want to invest in a phone that's not a significant upgrade.
Got a one s. I thought the lack of removable battery and no sd card slot would kill it, but I don't see it bothering me much. Galaxy s 3 would have been my choice but I heard its gonna be watered down anyway.

Sounds like most of you are going for either the Galaxy SIII or the Galaxy Nexus.
My only worry in this regard is the screens.
The screen is what draws you to the device and Super AMOLED HD screens (minus the plus) just don't do it for me.
But yeah my phone is just dying. So glad I didn't keep that Moto Cliq around though... THAT would be a nightmare.

So I guess you've decided it for me!
I'm going with Samsung again and getting a Galaxy SIII!
Snapdragon S4 processor is ok,
2GB RAM will put me in a haze,
Let's just hope battery life better than the Vibrant's graze.
Hello.
So, Yeah. I'm going to get something new.
After I had unfortunate accident when my Droid RAZR broke in my pocket without any crash, I'm receiving new one for warranty and decide to change something, because I hate when phone breaks without reason
I live in Poland, so I need something that reach europe.
What I need... Specs comparable with RAZR (CPU and RAM. Some nice GPU would also be nice), Screen at least same quality as it and overall nice quality.
It would be also welcome to be easily moddable with decent amount of Custom ROMs for it. Official/Unofficial CM support is also welcome.
And one more thing. No SGS2. I'm tired of it.
So. Any propositions?
Thanks in advance!
Galaxy S II is old, why would anyone suggest it with the Galaxy S III is out? If you're tired of Samsung then go for an HTC One X. If not, the Samsung Galaxy S III is waiting to love you. I'd suggest a Nexus but you seem to be pretty content with rooting and ROMs so I guess it isn't necessary.
How about Galaxy Note 2? Supposed to be announced at end of month

If you like rooting and roming, go with the Nexus. Otherwise, Galaxy S III or One X.
Ooh, go for the Xperia gx. Actually, scratch that. I don't think it's available in Europe yet... maybe the acro s... damn I'm not really sure when it comes to Europe.
Sent from my X10i using xda app-developers app
go for the one X, but rooting it might be a bit difficult, if so, then go with a nexus!
I would suggest a Galaxy Nexus. Nexus devices always get the official updates first and will be supported for a long time (for example: Nexus S got JellyBean, Galaxy S which has almost the same hardware has not even gotten official ICS...)
Get Galaxy Note 2. It will be released in few days.
Galaxy s3 is an awesome choice too.
Sent from Samsung Galaxy S3 T999
The nexus s is very close in spec to your RAZR. The camera isn't as nice, but fantastic device none the less. You can get them cheap right now too.
The SGS3 is an incredible device. It blows away the RAZR in performance from every angle.

If you can get a Galaxy S III go for it because Samsung just came out with the official jelly bean OTA , otherwise Galaxy Nexus ftw...
The Galaxy Nexus does not have a gorilla glass display , only a scratch resistant one...I haven't really tested mine by putting it in my pocket with my keys lol, but If you get a decent screen protector you won't have any problems...
Gorilla Glass is a big plus , but its a small price to pay for the software experience you're getting out of this phone...Pure AOSP Android experience , you will get the latest updates FIRST, and not have to wait like with the SIII for example...or any other phone for that matter...
Plus its a pretty powerful phone..well worth its money right now if you don't care about the mediocre camera...(which I personally think is fine...1080p video at 30fps , with decent lighting it records great... Photos are OK as well so...)
OR if you're good at waiting you can wait for the new nexus to come out that might have a GG display, but Google hasn't even announced it officially yet so...

I have had iphone for last 4 years or so
Got real bored with apple not doing anything new and getting boring and also no jailbreak so I switched to Note II after dumping my iphone 5! could not have been happier, love the phone and now everyone in IT wants one, after rooting my phone and new rom from Scott, this phone rock's. I think it is a awsone Rom by the way.

AW: iPhone 5 to Note II "Loving IT"
I have had my iPhone for like three years. All what Apple gets is complete ignorance of their customer needs. Even for new products or software updates, the so long awaited release was found to be at the end an integrated Facebook and a poor stupid maps app!
Bull****!
I got Galaxy S i9003 and it was superior to iPhone 4S!
Currently, I am a happy user of Galaxy S III and Galaxy Note 10.1.

Congrats. My wife wanted to switch to an iphone after two Android phones. She got the 5 and hated it when she realized it couldn't do half the things she wanted. I tried to tell her ahead of time. She swapped it for a Note 2 and couldn't be happier.

No wonder apple stock has dropped so much, the way they are going they will the thing in the past. Just like what happend to windows mobile when iphone came. Samsung is taking over with help of android and google.

I switched in 2010 from the OG Droid to the iphone 4 and loved it. However ever since then Apple has been slow at evolving their OS and Android has been catching up until now when Android in my opinion is superior than iOS.
My iPhone 5 was a great reliable phone but without a jailbreak I just couldn't take it. I've been rooting/jailbreaking my phones since the OG Droid.
I did try out the Galaxy Nexus but it was a bit too laggy for my taste. However, the Galaxy Note 2 is by far the best phone that I have ever used.
I'm currently using Beans B6 and love it. Enjoy your Note 2. It's an amazing device.

If I could only have one phone, it would be the Note II but I also love my iPhone 5.

Samsung S4 for design, hardware and software. HTC if you want to support a company that's about to go bankrupt.
I like both but the One has a smaller screen, I'd love a slightly larger screen. And I like Multi Window on the S4. Decisions decisions.

s4 no doubt . Samsung is more durable ,sturdy , its hardware is good

HTC for design and build quality, hate plastic flimsyness. Plus sense 5 is beautiful and looks gorgeous on the phone, and sense is (imo) so much better than touchwiz, and more besides.
BlackBerry was down n out but then z10 released and there profits are literally almost 10 times higher and sales of older models are selling better as well. Taiwan also pretty keen on HTC, I suspect they will bail them out and keep em goin for a bit should the situation turn diar. The market changes so quickly that no company stays consistent in the market, HTC were smartphone market leaders not very long ago and I think once tegra 4 and snapdragon 800 come out, in combination with the new marketing head and tactics, there could be a bit of a resurgence, and I really hope for one. I think HTC have finally realised being 'quietly brilliant' doesnt work against the comparative megaphones that apple and Samsung announce there products with.
Lol, sorry, basically I'd go with the one cos it looks and feels better, very little seperating them on the inside so comes down to aesthetics, which would you be happier/more comfortable looking at and holding.
As a side note I assume HTC are still doing the dropbox 25gb thing, don't know if Samsung have an alternative but dropbox has been a surprisingly useful and commonly used feature, plus having all photos/vids instantly backed up is nice.

HTC One is better than S4 ,,, no doubt about it.
Samsung is if you like Republic of Korea,
HTC if you like Republic of China.
i think if u waited the note 3 you will not regret it
Go with HTC One. It is always better to have a better hardware than software. You can't make up for what your hardware lacks when compared to to other phones, but software can easily be done. And don't worry HTC won't be going bankrupt any time soon, sliding profits ≠ the company is going to be bankrupt.

Samsung galaxy S4 has no great design it's same like Note 2 and galaxy grand. It's all plastic whereas HTC One has a great aluminum unibody which is great and it looks much better than Samsung galaxy S4.

I have the S3 and it is a good phone but since i don't have the G pro I can't compare between them.
Regarding the S3, Samsung will soon stop updating its software so I would recommend the S4 or upcoming S5 if they fit your budget.
Another option is a nexus 5 for vanilla android experience.
Yeah that's the problem my budget is low
Im getting a g pro for my s3 if I pay twenty dollars
I have all accessories but that only has a charger but the condition is supposed to be good
