Android Thread V4 - Got money? Samsung Galaxy S II. No money? ZTE Blade. - Hardware & Software

[QUOTE=Ralbane;31190015]very disappointed considering it doesn't have any at all[/QUOTE] Yep, I tried that model in a phone store, it's just marketing BS.

[QUOTE=Van-man;31189996]If you're gonna buy it for the 3D screen effect, then you're most likely gonna be severely disappointed.[/QUOTE] Wait what. I never heard of the 3D Screen effect in any of their marketing. Wrong phone perhaps?

[QUOTE=Ignhelper;31190073]Wait what. I never heard of the 3D Screen effect in any of their marketing. Wrong phone perhaps?[/QUOTE] Ahh, it's just 3D animation, that and i always see it compared to the EVO 3D. Goddamn I'm on a streak of stupidity.

Is Galaxy S II worth buying?

[QUOTE=Trippeh;31190446]Is Galaxy S II worth buying?[/QUOTE] YES

[QUOTE=Trippeh;31190446]Is Galaxy S II worth buying?[/QUOTE] If it's available where you live. Every site I've been too tells me its the best android phone ever made.

The new Subsonic widget looks so brilliant, I had to get it on my home screen. [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99583/screenshot-1310998862892.png[/img]

reading more into the G2x it seems to be full of problems. Sensation seems to be my best choice. I'd go with the Galaxy S but I saw demo's of the performance and it's not what I'm looking for.

ATTN: Blade CM7 Owners/Users; How are you guys finding the battery life? I'm doing pretty well at the moment but my Blade owning friend is getting a very miserable one.

Even without any apps the transition animations already suffer from stutters occasionally. The thing needed the full 1GB of ram and the processor should have been from a company that utilized the Cortex-A9 design. Too bad the EVO 3D is only CDMA, it had a full 1GB of ram. [editline]18th July 2011[/editline] Oh but don't get me wrong. Don't get the SGS 4G over the Sensation. The price difference is so minimal.

Turn on Airplane mode when sleeping for a lasting battery.

[url]http://www.motorola.com/Consumers/CA-EN/Consumer-Products-and-Services/Mobile-Phones/ci.MOTOROLA-XT860-CA-EN.alt[/url] Droid 3 using 850/1900 like the rest of the world. Perhaps it will come to Canada.

[QUOTE=Thund3rdome;31191635]Turn on Airplane mode when sleeping for a lasting battery.[/QUOTE] Or plug it in the charger.

[QUOTE=Van-man;31191773]Or plug it in the charger.[/QUOTE] I forgot my charger at my sisters place..

I installed Juice Defender last night for my blade. It's doing a pretty damn good job, auto disabling data etc when I sleep and what not. Getting a good charge now.

I'm torn between stock android and MIUI after looking through some of these screens. If I switched back I'd miss some of the MIUI polish.

So is the cheapest Android 2.3 or Honeycomb tablet, the Nook Color?

[QUOTE=Dav0r;31192719]I installed Juice Defender last night for my blade. It's doing a pretty damn good job, auto disabling data etc when I sleep and what not. Getting a good charge now.[/QUOTE]I still don't understand how it works, default settings it would turn off all data for me when I was expecting important phone calls. You get the pro version?

Gonna flash 2.3.4 now :D.

[QUOTE=Satane;31193030]Guys ever since I installed CM7 rc1 I've been getting this icon. What the fuck is it ? [IMG]http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa72/Satane123/pictureandroid.jpg[/IMG] Also, unlocking sim card takes like 3 minutes. It's a desire hd[/QUOTE] The icon is shaped like a sim card, so maybe the sim card is placed incorrectly?

[QUOTE=Wolfyhound;31194728]The icon is shaped like a sim card, so maybe the sim card is placed incorrectly?[/QUOTE] Yeah that icon means no sim card installed.

[QUOTE=Splarg!;31195042]Yeah that icon means no sim card installed.[/QUOTE]Or the sim card is placed incorrectly, or it's bad...

Got my name on a list for a Galaxy S2 on Thursday. :D

Ţyping this on my new sensation. Screen is much better than I expected.

FUCK GOOGLE FOR NOT TAKING MAESTRO/PAYPAL FOR GOOGLE CHECKOUT SO I CAN'T BUY APPS FUCK MY BANK FOR NOT GIVING ME A VISA FUCK A DUCK arse. Indeed.

[QUOTE=Brt5470;31198193]Ţyping this on my new sensation. Screen is much better than I expected.[/QUOTE] Glad you picked it up. Though honestly after owning a P-IPS monitor and a Galaxy S I found the screen unusable.

Heh I made fart noises at my SGT 10.1's voice command system and it Googled gay porn :v:

The internet feels pretty damn fast. 4.8mbps down and about 1.5 up
