DAM looks like we dont qualify for android 3!

According to this:

You need 1g and 512 of ram, we got 384. Why the hell did sony chose 384 anyway, you would think 512 would be the sweat spot anyway.......
oh well,

I think i messed up, it would have been the better choice to go the desire i reckon. More support, better screen, more ram, a bit more future proof.

well there's already a thread with this issue, but I feel exactly like you do.
I should have chosen for the Desire but tmobile didn't have it in stock so I chose for the X10i but I feel the same way. But if you read the other thread you'll see that the X10 will (probably) be capable of running gingerbread

DAM the same subject as the post right next to yours!

Oh stop whining. Who cares. Enjoy the phone today and stop worrying about this garbage and get a life. WTF is a "sweat spot" anyway lol.

Sounds dirty 0_o

Selling my Epic to my brother as soon as it releases. He hates phones without keyboards so I am selling him my mint Epic for cheap in exchange for his upgrade eligibility.
Finally get to own a Nexus. I'm pumped!

I really want this phone. I was hoping they would add a MicroSD slot. That may be a deal breaker for me....

If this phone had 32 gig internally instead of 16 gig, then I could live without the MicroSD slot....

are the drivers any better on this phone ?
or are all samsungs drivers stupid ?

Exact copy of the GSM Nexus S except for the CDMA/EVDO/WIMAX
Fromg the google blog:
It features a 4” Contour Display designed to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand and along the side of your face. It also features a 1GHz Hummingbird processor, front and rear facing cameras, 16GB of internal memory, and NFC (near field communication) hardware that lets you read information from everyday objects that have NFC tags.
In addition, today we’re excited to announce that Sprint customers will soon be able to take advantage of the full set of Google Voice features without changing or porting their number.

Because its a Google supported phone / Google dev phone. All software comes 100% from Google directly. Samsung doesn't touch the software. It will get almost all future updates until the hardware cant handle the software. The Nexus One, which is pretty damn old now, just recently got official Gingerbread, and will likely get Ice Cream.

Yea but what he meant is...
Thanks to the hardware similarities we wont be far behind them in updates so why pay all that money for basically the same phone w/o a keyboard when all these Beastly phones are about to be released it would be a waste to get hardware that is outdated by the time its even for sale 8)

I personally hate physical keyboards now. Mine is just wasted, unused bulk.
True Google software is worth it for me. Dual core CPU's aren't even close to being utilized in smartphones yet anyway. Not until apps/software are written to support them.
The Hummingbird can still hold its own.

Vid of the Galaxy Nexus....

Honestly i'm not a huge fan of the physical design, but the UI looks nice

also with the processor at 1.2mhz really not helping either

1.2 or 1.5....I really don't care all that much. Main thing is the optimization to utilize both cores. Looks i4s...its only 800mhz and its fast

+ 100 Million Billion Million!!!!!!

All true, but i'm still waiting to see the power of the battery and it's internal storage. The only major things i like about this phone is that it's pure android and that it will release with ICS. If the battery is weak and the internal storage is low, i'm either get the SGSII or wait til something else comes out, cause i got a feeling the Galaxy Nexus is gonna be waaaaaay overpriced for pretty much the same specs as the SGSII, but with ICS(which is nice, but i can wait for the release on the atrix or SGSII) plus it's goin to Verizon first and i'm with At&T soooo........

^^^very true....funny so many are whining about the Nexus being clocked at 1.2 instead of 1.5....5mp instead of 8mp. Like many have said...if you're not going to print any pics, MP doesn't matter at all. Im fine with these specs....ill wait and see if our Atrix recieve's the ICS update thru OTA or ROM, if not, hellos Nexus Prime

i don't have a problem with the camera being 5mp, now with the processor stratax cleared that up for me, but no sd card slot, and a 1750mAh battery is gonna disappoint a lot of people just like the nexus s, which is a great phone but could've been better with an sd card slot for people like me that store a lot of music, videos, etc on their phone. My atrix replaced every other device i had(ipod, digital cam, psp) with the 48gbs it holds. But i do believe the Galaxy Nexus will be a great device, just missing a few things

as for the camera that is true, mp are marketing pretty much. software can make it look better than 99% of 8-12mp cameras out there. hahaha there is no sdcard slot? so many people didnt get the nexus s because of that. you'd think they would learn.. that is the same reason i didnt get the sensation because of low storage. i use my atrix as the same. most of it is music and games lol. which takes up a ton. how can a company make a entertainment device with low storage -_- unless it has like 64gb of storage i wont be happy with it. maybe 32 would be fine but still, im sure it will be expensive.

Am I wasting my time thinking AT&T will subsidize the version with their bands?

if our phone does not recieve ICS or CM doesnt make a port or whatever im leaving android for sure. im tired of having to switch a freaking device RIGHT after i buy it. WP7 is on the lead with actually updating their phones and crap and have good hardware requirements without fragmentation. i know that technology gets updated fast blah blah. its just crap what google does lol. i like the big leap they are taking, but they need to AT LEAST update ICS on all the dual core phones that have been released. that would be pretty sweet

Upgrade your galaxy s3 hardware :P

I wish there is way to upgrade your s3 As in add an extra 1gb ram to the mother board of your phone, I mean if some of the galaxy have 2gb I would say there is room on the board for more.... Hmmmmmmm I wonderr

http://www.mlivetech.com/2012/06/28/samsung-galaxy-s3-is-getting-ram-upgrade-for-jelly-bean/
This article was out June 28th What ever happen to the international with 2gb RAHHHH

here is the thing:
if samsung decides to upgrade ram they have two options, to release new model I930x with identical hw as I9300 but 2 gigs of ram OR keep it I9300 and call back in ones with 1gb of ram and replace em for free (second option isnt gonna happen anyways). however if first option happens and I9300 doesnt get android 5.0, how hard is it actually going to be to port roms with only one more gb of ram...in best scenario roms will be universal, just maybe small kernel difference

Why wouldnt it be possible for NON-Samsung engineers to update themselves?
Do u mean it will be possible to get the roms from the " i930X" phones and put them on the i9300 ?
And what do u mean android 5.0 isnt JB 4.1.1?
Another quick question my freind was wondering if they can have the same software on our SG3 in his SG2? If it is a yes is it just a simple flash if yes where would u get the flash file

why would you want to make changes to the motherboard when you can simply "DOWNLOAD MORE RAM"
Honestly, if you want a good laugh visit this site http://www.downloadmoreram.com/ make sure to read their blog which shares experiences of people who have used it

He's on about the next update after jb which looks like it's going to be key lime pie

If you are looking to be banned you are going about it the right way.
Stop trolling these forums, sell the phone if you don't like it and stay in the XS forums.
Nobody cares if you don't like the phone or not, I don't know why you don't understand that.

open your s3 , stick a 4gb ddr3 chip inside and try booting it it may work

Hey Guys, I just exchanged my Quad Core Exynos chip with Intel 16 core i10 chip with 5 GB RAM...the local tech guy was very kind and also agreed to add 1 TB of extra memory to go with the 16 GB of internal memory...
All at just 99.99 $..I am very happy now..
I future I am thinking of buying more electronic products from Idiot Electronics..

Creating a swap file on a flash storage device will probably reduce the flash chip's lifespan. Besides, what kind of amazing power hungry apps do you use that require more than 1GB of RAM?

That's true there aren't any that require over 1GB but i would like a little more smoothness when loading intensive apps but if it's true that it reduces the lfiespan of my ram then that app is a no go unfortunately

What cr*p are you talking about Samsung advertising our phone with 1GB when its not?
You think they can do that legally?
Do some research before you make assumptions which are not true. The reason you will never see full 1GB capacity is because some is reversed for the system OS etc.
