Android thread V-garychencool finally rooted his phone and got ICS edition - Hardware & Software

I have the TF300 and I really wish I'd never bought it. The device has horrible I/O making everything freeze all the time. My tablet was send for RMA once and now it doesn't have a serial number making me not able to unlock it and Asus's support are a bunch of untrained moneys who can't even give you the steps to "fix" a problem for the right tablet.

[QUOTE=sdwise;38238974]I like the back (not with the writing and shit). The glittery texture is more subtle than the press shots looked.[/QUOTE] Love it as well, the way it "dissapears" in certain angles is awesome. Too bad they couldn't put the information on the SIM slot or something. Just Nexus and LG logos would be perfect.

[QUOTE=Kaabii;38239060]Then you haven't seen how "well" Tegra 3 pushes a 1920x1200 display with your own eyes.[/QUOTE] You are literally the only person I find talking about that. Even on other forums. I don't want to disregard what you say but I'm gonna need more than that.

What's a good price for a very good condition SGS2 with Case/Screen Protector/Stylus, 3 extra batteries and an external charger?

I can't give you more than that because I wasn't stupid enough to buy the bloody thing to make a video of it or something.

And if that isn't enough the Jelly Bean update is full of little annoying bugs Asus is just to lazy to fix.

Oh dear God, I'm totally confusing Kaabii and garrynohome now because of the similarities in their posts and Kirby avatars...

To be clear, I'm not trying to argue, I'm just looking to find out more.

[QUOTE=sdwise;38239597]Watching reviews of it on YT and other places makes it look pretty good.

Those retail electronic stores still serve a purpose, trying out stuff before you buy it online!

[QUOTE=Kaabii;38239436][img]http://i.imgur.com/MEmSQ.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] Goddamn it, I'm late as fuck. No wonder I kept on thinking like a completely new member to this thread knew as much shit as garrynohome, and garrynohome's on vacation or something.

Google are making it [I]really[/I] hard for me to leave them for Windows Phone :v: The OS itself [Android] isn't exactly fast and amazing but the handsets it's on makes it.

[QUOTE=garychencool;38238227]HOLY SHIT I CHECKED MY GOOGLE PLAY AND... I GOT MAGAZINES NOW!!!![/QUOTE] on your mini pro? incredible user experience right there [editline]29th October 2012[/editline] nexus 4 is the only android phone I've ever wanted - might trade up from my S2 at christmas because it looks fucking great

Shit, if the Nexus 4 gets release at a slightly later point with 32GB storage or more, I might be tempted. Or snatch up a used SGSII, because some people [I]MIGHT[/I] be selling theirs :v: Also putting money aside for a Nexus 7 32GB

[URL="http://www.google.com/nexus/"]New Nexus device page is up![/URL] [URL="https://play.google.com/store/devices/details?id=nexus_4_16gb"]Nexus 4 16GB is £279[/URL]

I got my lumia 800 and I love it to bits but not getting windows phone 8 is a bummer to me, and no word on the release date for 7.8 except "soon". I could cut my loses and get the nexus 4 cause it looks fantastic for the price, and using my nexus 7 has made me fall in love with android. God damn google those prices

[QUOTE=PyroCF;38239759]Google are making it [I]really[/I] hard for me to leave them for Windows Phone :v: The OS itself [Android] isn't exactly fast and amazing but the handsets it's on makes it.[/QUOTE] Look at some of the 4.2 videos. Windows phone just falls short...

Oh God, and I said I would use my SGSII for a few years before I got a new phone... [url]http://www.theverge.com/2012/10/29/3569230/google-wireless-charging-orb-touchstone-qi[/url]

okay fuck this, im getting a nexus 4! [editline]29th October 2012[/editline] [url]http://www.tre.se/Privat/Mobiltelefoner/Mobiler/LG-Nexus-4/?color=9100[/url] holy fucking shit are they insane?! "4595 Swedish kronor = 687.5453 US dollars"

...And then S2's on eBay shot up massively.

Fuck this, £280 for an amazing bit of hardware, count me in. I just watched that Verge video.

i think they just pulled this price out of their asses, its probably not gonna be that expensive elsewhere

How are you supposed to have a proper backup without external storage?
