Coming from the HTC Sensation... and I can't believe how much I've been missing out on.
Not hating on any device ...just really ecstatic!

Glad your enjoying the device, I see the same reaction from my friends who owns a sensation or IP4 when they get to play with my S2

Got this galaxy s2 a day back, its a piece of wonder.............. amazing...

Congrats saffant, and bala gamer too.

l0l.
First time using data.. with speeds of 10Mbps.. almost as fast as my home cable connection... perhaps that's why the extra enthusiasm.
Anyways thanks guys. hopefully I won't need an upgrade for some time.

You may be happy but think of all the poor bastards that think their SGS2 is a load of crap .

Everyone has a different opinion and expectation of the device, this includes the device they previously had compared to the S2

Im using xperia arc as of now but im planning to buy sgs2 just for future proofing of a smartphone device..but im reading a lot of negative comments as to overheating aand yellowish tint on the screen and pinkish discoloration in the cam..or all u sgs2 users, can u comment with full honesty on ur device? Iys really my first choice..htc sensation will be my 2nd choice.. Will that overheating be fixed with a firmware upgrade? How bout the cam, battery and discoloration problem?
please please i need a smart and honest opinion..

yea~ I'm currently using s2 as well... performance just some problem with the pink spot and the yellowish screen issue which kill the mood but overall pretty cool, I freenze some process for better batter life~

Nice. I felt the same way when I got mine. Make sure that you read all the important post in this forum before you try anything crazy. Once you know what you are doing with the helpful people here you can really start to discover what your phone can do...

Goodbye X10 with thanks to all

I've just picked up a Samsung Galaxy S II so my beloved X10 is going to be my backup phone.
Just want to thank all the devs and others that have helped in making using it such a great experience.
Cheers all
Damn at least a month before it is released here. I will be joining you soon Yeah it is definitely a great choice.
Got a message today that a phone recycling company has agreed to pay me the full working price for my mobo afflicted X10. So I only lost £2 on the deal. My 26 days with the X10 showed me A) What a good phone the X10 could be with the right ROM (tried 2 Froyos and 1 Éclair all very good) and B) How crap SE are – I had both stock 2.1 and 1.6 on the X10 and both were sh*te, never mind the bloody hardware fault. I can confidently say that will (and have) continue to opt for Android it wont be a SE handset.
OP – Had a play with a SG SII last night, very nice and what a screen. I am jealous as my replacement for the X10 is a ZTE Blade lol. Still at least the blade can function in warm weather unlike that bloody X10.
So goodbye for now XDA, I will return with something different to the Blade in October when I upgrade.
I want the sgs2 so bad lol

He mad..
We don't it's to push your buttons.
I believe, XDA IS ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENT AND DISCUSSION OF CELL PHONES.
not cell phone.
i am not mad,i am just pissed of
well,if this continues,then in 1-2 years the 99% of the threads will say "leaving x10.many thanks to developers",etc.
Imagine that in all mobile sections...
and also believe me,the 90% of users,dont give a damn if i broke my x10 or it got stolen.(except when developers say it)
If you think creating nosense threads is right,then there is nothing i can do
Take care mate,enjoy your SGSII ,i myself changed to a Motorola Defy which couldnt get better (Not 2xCore but works awesomely) ,it has a locked Kernel...but you dont need it unlocked lol,has a perfect functional Multitouch,16m colors,CM7 for it with Everything working(Including camera and such),and everything ^
Besides i get 2.5k at Quadrant with a Overclock @ 1.2ghz ^

Good luck with your SG II. I switched to the Moto Atrix about 3 weeks back.

I LOVE THE PHONE !!! LOVE IT GUYS !!!!
Any chance you could explain why you love it, comparison between the two services maybe

NVIDIA ! powerful chipset ! but bad drivers !
we waiting 2.3 official update from LG ! but its taking 2 long.....60% of phones laggy damn so much...
And after that I got SGS2 and damn nice phone !!!! perfect performance !
what about benchmarks LG G2x its a in same step with sgs2. But no point of benchmarks reselts if phone is lagg so much. You know what I mean.

Welcome to a phone that actually works and gets updated. There are threads on how to get AT&T 4G cheap if and when you want to switch from that other carrier.
most perfect phone so far, sure it is...
ok guys, I think that we need such a thread cause I've noticed that everybody is posting negative threads on this device like it has only drops and mistakes.
I was a user of sgs (awesome phone)for a year, I've flashed it like hell to finally stick with cm7 which is awesome. However, even with the latest nightlies (which is a kick ass), I cant say that sgs+cm7 match the:
speed
reliability
stability
clarity (sound+image) + I miss voodoo here though
of my new sgs 2
I dont feel the same crave to root+flash the device .......yet cause it damn fasttttt by default, in fact i might root it for the advantages of having su control on it.
IMHO it is unnecessary upgrade but this device worths every single penny you pay for it
Now, the next problem is to get the games to run on the SGS2

Same here. My optimus 2x was really buggy. First one was DOA and the second one was laggy, with horrible phone call quality, backlight bleeding and useless GPS.
Belive me, o2x feels like a beta product if you compare it to sgs2.
the only thing better in lg is ergonomy and battery life.

I came from the SGS with all sorts of mods, but I've kept with stock firmware on the S2, it's just that good, the only change is using Launcher Pro instead of TW.

Soon it WILL, as of now it's just in development
anyhow after owning an ios device, Android could alot use more good games.
The SGS2 is awesome and all and Touchwiz 4 is finally something which can be bragged about but this whole Tegra thing and incompatibilities annoys me about android
I know coming from ios, I went from a 3gs to an ip4, all the games still worked only better graphics, but with android, you have completely different compatibility within the operation system due to the different graphics chips, this really does disjoint android gaming.
Developers shy away from android, because of this fragmentation, but then again with the new ip5 coming out older iphones will be left behind floundering in the realms of incompatibility. There really should not be so many, tegra, xperia play etc, why not simply have automatic recognition of what chip you are using and adjust graphics to suit.

This is good bye from The Gingerbread Man (temp)

Hello my friends here at XDA!!
It brings me great sadness to say you wont really really see much of me round here for a while. I originally planned to make this thread in about a weeks time when i leave for my holiday to Florida for 2 weeks but im going to post now as today i have sent my beloved X10 for repair due to accidental damage. My x10 is not due back till wednesday, the day before i leave for my holidays.
This leaves me phoneless, i do not own a laptop and tbh i rarely have the patentience to use my **** old pc which sounds like its about to take off with the fan spinning so loudly! I odnt know if any of you notice but 99.999999999% of my posts and pm come from my xda premium app or tapatalk for this very reason!
On the plus side when i get back from my holidays i will be up for an upgrade on my contact and be able to get a better newer phone. When i find something i really like and want i will be leaving you guys. I will pop in of course to 'visit' and when i can i shall post before my holidays. I have a full time job and girlfriend and fairly active social life so dont expect to see much of me is all im saying and when the time comes to move on permananltly il leave you all know.
So really this is just to say you wont see much of me round here for perhaps about 3 weeks give or take a few days.
Peace and out,
Steve
PS
Im open to suggestions for new phones to get and reasons why. Im staying with android and dont want a sgs2
Bye for now..............
Hey Steve,
Hope the effect of cider wears off your x10 soon!!
Enjoy your holidays man!!
As for the new phone... stay with us mate! jk
can you please mention the reason you dont like SGS2 i think is the best option for replacement phone
Wait for new nexus phone...that is what I would do.

Hi Bro,
It is strange not seeing you around today as i know you will be missing all the fun of the bootloader unlock. What a time hey to get your phone drunk, i bet you not do that again mate lol.
Well i hope you get a phone sorted quick and that you enjoy your hols, maybe when you get back you can sort out another cheap x10 so you can play around with the unlocked bootloader with us all but if you get upgraded maybe you will not want to bother as you will have something better, well hopefully.
chat when you can mate.
What to say i feel bad
I know exactly how you feel, my x10 got stolen and vodafone didn't have any x10
They gave me Neo instead and its a awesome phone and all but with the bootloader unlock now I'm gutted...
Have a good holiday mate

lol you're sad about that?
dude that's the best thing ever.. the neo processor and gpu is a hundred times better. plus true multitouch
the x 10 bootloader being unlocked isn't going to amount to what people think.
you lucked out huge.
it is tomorrow i leave for my holiday, 2 weeks time il be back and hopefully have a phone, mine still isnt back from repair, im leaveing for manchester airport at 5am uk time so looks like no phone to take on holiday. Im sad without it and iv missed loads since iv been gone only one week.

Thank you all

The day before yesterday my DHD's touchscreen went all dead on me.
Since warranty was allready over en probably void too I was forced to get a new phone.
I was in doubt off what new phone to get but HTC kinda grew on me. So, I'm moving over to Sensation(XE) threads.
allready running Virtuous ICS on it now so tings are going very well
Just wanted to thank the DHD community for giving me a great time. I've learned a lot from all of ya and had loads of fun.
See you on the other side
U bought an HTC Sensation XE?

It's a bit early to say but I do like the screen and it;s resolution.also batterylife is a lot better and of course its a lot faster than DHD.
I must say it's a lot more comfortable to hold in your hand then DHD. A bit smaller so it fits better in an average hand
Don't buy it for the headset though, it kinda sucks to be honest. the cord is too short, earplugs are too heavy and sound is nothing special about.
Glad I got http://www.hi-stands.eu/shop/index....n=article&group_id=10000245&aid=12308&lang=NL a while ago, pretty sweet sound
Well it's sad to see you go. Our loss is the Sensation's gain.
Hopefully our paths should cross again

farewell my good friend galaxy s3

farewell my good friend galaxy s3 , its been a great fun for a month after that i found you boring and wanted to punch you in the face well joking , may you have fun with your next owner and friend , on the serious side , i find smartphones to be really useless =]
If you are unable to use the capabilities of a Smartphone why bother just use El Cheapo phone is what i say .
jje
its darn temptation to buy the expensive smartphone =[
How is this thread useful or interesting, at all?
Adios, random dude! Your S3 was smarter than you!
I see the problem in his sig... he owned 3 iPhones, no wonder his IQ dropped so much.

You find expensive smartphones tempting and yet you call it boring. Maybe you just dont know the potential this beastly phone has.

Sounds like my 87 year old Granddad who thought colour TV was pointless until I gave him one in 2003 and wired it up while he was out and I said he could have it back if after a month he still wants his old TV back, and now he regularly plays on Wii with his Great Grandkids.
clearly we are all better off for knowing that thanks.
