Well guess I'll start this one. I am selling my tablet and buying a Nexus 7.
I've put it on Craigslist for $150 firm. I will miss the sd slot. Guess I will put my 32gb card in my note. This is a great community here and I love the official cm support but the Nexus has better. (Support, not community )
If I could just get people to not back out of deals.

Just signed up for E-bay and hoping to get rid of my tab A.S.A.P n get me some A.O.K.P .....on a nice new shiny Nexus 7.
Selling for £100 (Paid £199 for it) and will be getting the 32GB WiFi only Nexus for £199...Yup same price as i paid for my SGT2 7~ P3110
The P3110 isnt a bad Tab , Just the Nexus 7 has more to offer and will have lots more coming its way this year. I'm really tempted to keep both, but do I need them both.
Anyone in London wants a cheap tab PM me lol. Be around for a week or two I guess ?
Its been fun :laugh:
I would miss the IR blaster
Yeesh!
Scottx and Sean ..... sad to see two of our early and active tab users go. However, I cannot negate your feelings. I myself have been contemplating making this move as I use a galaxy nexus and to me , nothing beats vanilla android.
However , looking at the random hardware issues ( screen lift, sound etc) that people have been posting on the nexus 7 forum...I was not sure if it was worth the gamble. Am pretty sure Asus got their act together...but again...my head says stick with this. And am trying to convince myself that 6 more months and the next nexus tab may land ...
In Any case... Nexus 7 is the best bang for the Buck! It'll be fun.
Have a great life and thanks for sharing and assisting others.

Thanks for the kind words , means a lot
I really do like this tab and have enjoyed watching the development of this tab all the way. Testing out the ROMS all the devs have supplied for us , all the way from CM9 , CM10 , Romswells deodexed stock flavours ( fantastic work),The darkly delicious Baked ROMs and the awesome AOKP builds. Flashing stuff literally every day , customizing it and posting screens. Helping people out when I could was and still is fun.
Personally I just feel that I'm missing out on stuff that the Nexus has to offer, Being addicted to Android comes at a cost lol. I may even keep the tab and use it as a digital photo frame or get a dock and use it as an alarm clock so something. I have had so much fun using this tab and I would miss it in a way. The forum is one of the better ones on XDA for sure and has some great users and devs.
I thank and salute you all. Happy flashing :laugh:
Hope you guys have better luck with the Nexus than I did. That was the biggest piece of crap I've ever owned. To compound the problem I talked my son into getting one soon after I did and now he's having the same problems I'm had. I practically gave mine away just so I wouldn't have to look at it any longer. I bet I turned the damn thing on 50 times a day after it would just shut down for no reason. Good Luck.
I traded my gt2 even up for a mint condition galaxy nexus gsm international version.
Now I'm selling the note and getting another tablet.
I miss it already though.
Goodbye guys. Thanks for the great times and chat. Take good care of that screenshot thread I made

Thanks man for the kind words. It's people like us that make this place what it is.
Loving this gnex. It runs so smooth. Can't wait to get a Nexus 7 to match. If I come across a good deal on another gt2 I'll buy it. I just couldn't pass this trade up. I really feel like I came out ahead on the deal. My tab was still mint even though I had it since May. That guy got a nice tablet. He might show up here. He had rooted the gnex and changed the kernel. I put 01-06-13 CM 10.1 on the tab and I figure he'll want to update it sooner or later.
Anyway. Take care everyone and feel free to pm me if needed!

I sold my Tab2 today and I wanted to say a few words to this community!
I have been a Tab 2 user since the week it was released and from the days where we just got root to all the way till the end (until I sold it).... it has been fun! Everyone was so damn helpful and I wanted to say Thank you! I have used other android devices before but this group was different. Super nice, patient and helpful!
Have fun with your tabs fellas! Good luck and be well!

So how many people we really still have using and working on the vibrant? I'm feeling kinda lonely with my love for this phone =P seems like the vibrant is getting left in the dust allot quick then my G1, which is sad =/
Also side note, anyone else feel like with a SGS there really isn't anything good enough to upgrade to yet? Only phone I'd even consider is the original SGS2 or the sprint SGS2. And those are iffy due to crappy audio. Vibrant is the best phone I own period. Beats my nexus S in everything =P even beats out my HP touchpad easily IMO. Thoughts?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
I feel you man, I'm getting bored of this phone. I will probably upgrade to the muiu phone. Since, it's battery lastes so long.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
I just got the Vibrant about 2 months ago, as my wife's Motorola crapped out on her and our carrier swapped it out for the Vib. She wanted to swap with me, so I did and I have to say that once I upgraded it to a custom ROM, I actually like it a lot. It works well for me and what I want.
I think that most of the Jump-ship is because of boredom and not performance. I feel that and understand it. I have been there myself, but I like this phone and it is really easy to handle, breakdown (mean ADB by this) and there have been some really great customizations out on it.
Plus between the 16gb internal and my 32gb external,that is some serious storage for a phone. My old computer from a few years ago only had 30gb hard drive in it.
I am here and plan on staying for awhile.
I'm still here, kinda. My G2x is my main driver, but i still got my Vibrant and still build kernels when i have time. You're not alone

But this phones death is due from no updates.from tmobile. it just makes it way harder to develop for....
Go to the galaxy s2 forums ;-) .
You will find most of the great devs from many of the different forums there.
It seems as though Samsung shipped out yet another phone with outdated filmware lol....imagine that,
They are promising to send ics thru kies lmao ....I believe we have been thru this BS before
There are 3 vibrants in my home. My wife upgraded to the sensation and after a week gave it to my son and took her vibrant out of the drawer. I personally love this phone. Thanks to all the devs who still work on it. I have stockpiled my fave roms and kernels....just in case the remaining devs leave

I just got my Vibrant 2 mth ago from my fren who sold to me. Im not chasing the technology so i tink this phone is great for me. I like it a lot n planning to stay with it for a while longer cos i dont have the 2yrs contract matter. Btw cos im frm Singapore and we dont have Vibrant here so that makes my phone unique than the original SGS..lol. But i really dissapointed on Samsung on the firmware case and yeah this phone if rooted fly high. So i have to say i love my vibrant. Also thanks to all the devs here, appreciated what u guys have done for us n for staying with us making us great customs roms/kernels.

Any plans for IcS? I'm gonna start working on it today
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
ICS for Vibrant? Looking foward to this.lol
this is a great phone and when rooted does everything i've ever wanted a phone to do. although the experience with ICS will more than likely be better I'm still content with what we have so far. there are no hardcore 3d games that have pushed the hardware to the limit so I don't see any real hardware upgrade necessary. I stopped buying games on my vibrant any way cause I wasn't finishing the ones I had bought before and realized I was wasting my money. So i'm simply using it for media apps, social apps etc. These don't really need a dual core processor with 1gig of ram. The only thing I could want is an identical ICS theme and I'd be set at least for another year on this phone even if we don't ever get ICS.
Yeah, I could maybe see myself moving over to the Nexus S simply because it's got a bigger dev community and the T-Mobile version can be found for pretty cheap, but otherwise I just can't justify moving on from the Vibrant. If I don't go for the Nexus S I'll probably ride out with this until more ICS phones come out.
Hey ECOTOX, I've been quietly learning some stuff about Android and whatnot, I wouldn't consider myself a dev, not even close to one, but I'm learning and I catch on quickly, if you need any help, or have any tips, I'm here. I love this phone, and I won't be moving on to any other phone anytime soon.

I feel the same. I just don't see a lot of end user support with the Samsung products such as the Vibrant, and many other iterations. Updates seems to either take forever or it'll may never see the light of day. As for developer community? I can't really complain about their support for this device, since they are bringing out the goodies out of their own time with no expectations of donations, etc. And I'm grateful that they are cooking up roms, etc. In the future? I will be purchasing a Google branded phone: prompt updates, and great end user support. I just can't live with a dead end product, just feels like I got cheated out.
Well I just went to T-Mobile store and played with the sgs2 and I must say I'm completely impressed.
With a quadrant score of 2748 stock I'm blown away.
With my shattered screen and assurion's choice of replacement I'm sticking with my broken vibrant with miui ...I'm hoping sgs2 gets miui soon ...but I'm getting antsy and just might go out next week and buy the sgs2 outright
I would like to thank all of the awesome devs here in the Nexus One forum. You've taken me from a android noob, to a not-so-noobish noob. I'm still learning but I've recently got a One X. My N1 went south when it took up smoking and well.... It blew up. That's what you get for overclocking it way to much. But I would like to thank each and everyone of you for being awesome. Nexus One, You honestly changed me as a person and opened a whole new goal in life.
Okay enough of the rambling, I'm off to enjoy my 1X.
Take care guys.

yeah thank you all
I bought XPERIA S
Evervolv for ICS rom
Sad... I'm going to change my phone soon too, but the Nexus 1 will stay in my heart!
Am i the only one noticing that Jay_Rulen said thanks for leaving? LOL So you think it is good of him to leave?
I moved on to the Galaxy SII and will miss my N1. Thanks for the good times everyone!
whoa that's really sad, nd its great that u got one x, which is a successor of our nexus one
I'm in a similar boat. I recently had to replace my N1, and it will be sorely missed. Especially the LED trackball! Sadly enough, the google nexus is too big for my taste, and I didn't really want to spend $400 up front on a new phone so I picked up another phone instead.
I've vowed though, that as long as the next Nexus device is sized more like what I prefer, I will buy it!
I can't believe it, but I'm saying goodbye to my trusty N1 too. I'm still going to keep it around for media stuff around the house, but I got to get me some of that LTE. And IMO, the HTC One X is the first phone that is a true successor to the Nexus One.

My N1 is still alive, but I have moved on to the galaxy nexus and I also find the screen is a little too big for my liking. Screen colour is also sub-par comparing to the N1, I never see proper white colour being displayed even after adjusting RGBs and gamma values.
I bought the japanese galaxy nexus for around $325usd, shipped to hong kong via yahoo auction jp a month ago.
Though I am still flashing different roms on my N1 to play with
Kept my N1
I still use the N1 when I travel and put prepaid SIM's or my own SIM in it. It is smaller than the Inspire and then the Galaxy Nexus that followed it. If it would take ICS, I would probably be using it more. I really like ICS over Gingerbread and the extra zip of the dual core.
Anyway, it stays in my travel bag as a spare.
Phil
that sucks man. but i'm looking at exchanging my n1 for 1x as well
i'm selling my last nexus one now. it's in perfect shape and i'll get around $300 US for it in my country where imports are closed. i got to sell it now or never! i've moved to a gnex but i'll miss my first real phone.
Same here ... I'm moving to GNex now that price is affordable ...
I'm a bit sad because I really enjoyed the first nexus ... It was a pleasure to play with hundreds of custom roms and get support from this awesome devs community.
Thanks to all you awesome guys!
I'm planning to sell my Nexus One,,as the First Android device, this Smartphone has served me with pleasure... The devs are awesome as well...But the world is changing..Need better Specs now..I will miss my Sexy Nexy the most !!
As I posted earlier was thinking about selling my note. Well someone offered me $350 cash locally so I took them up and went to Sam's club and bought their last 16gb Google tablet to hold me over until the note 2 in a few months. So far its pretty cool.
I will still be checking here daily to keep up with development and see who is moving to the 2. Plus I've made some good international pals here as well.
anyway, thanks everyone from themers to chefs to developers to those who help and those I've helped, its been fun and ill see ya here and when the second version of the greatest phablet ever is released

I actually ask myself the same question. "Is that big purchase of the new device justified for a sake of some improvements (but not so overly dramatic)?".
I realise Note2 will come with 4 core processor, slightly bigger screen and perhaps Spen functionality ironed out and maybe better battery life. But how much all these improved features will affect my daily use. The more I think about it the less I'm convinced that I should switch...

Then you're brain is working properly.
None of the features that have leaked are worthy for NOTE users to switch. I mean sure from a Gnex or an S3... but the NOTE is still one of the most advanced smartphones out there.

Completely agree. I bought my Note 2-3 months ago, and sure i'd like to have Note 2, but lets be honest, throwing loads of money away just to get quad-core cpu ( which i probably won't even notice in my daily use ) is just...well...not very smart, unless you have a lot of cash you can spend for whatever you like, then i guess there's no discussion here. Will definitely buy Note 2, but probably in a year or so.
I am really interested to buy Nexus 7. let us know if you are satisfied with the tablet as a Note user

So far I love it. Couple of days in. Never used spen so no biggie there. Gaming awesome. Quadcore awesome. Screen awesome. Makes calls.
I guess imagine a Note on steroids
I've always wanted a large smartphone and this is it! And it actually fits in most of my pockets, and my wife thinks I'm happy to see her all the time too! :thumbup:
Seriously with it doubt i need note 2 now.
From the Note to Nexus 7
Inspire 4g was my first smartphone ever.
I never knew about what rooting was until i typed, "Inspire 4g jailbreak(haha silly me)" on youtube.
it gave me some results to rooting.
So i did and followed the instruction.
the link sent me to XDA.
never knew what XDA was until I looked further into the website.
For the past 2 years here on DHD/I4G , I had a great time flashing every rom.
I think i at least tried every single rom.
Im sad that some amazing rom/dev stopped supporting the dhd/i4g like....Rcmix team, Leedroid, coredroid, the family because they moved to a new phone as well.
Now that I got my Nexus 4 in my hands, I'm proud to move unto a new phone.
Flashing new roms and new stuff from different amazing devs.
Hope I have some fun time over at Nexus 4 forum!
Im still going to be keeping my Inspire 4g to play around.
If any devs need a "tester" to test something, hit me up for it.
well so long.
hope to see some of you over at Nexus 4 forum !

the nexus 4 is certainly very tempting, but there's life in my dhd yet.
the dhd has had (and will no doubt continue to have) a pretty amazing dev comunity. im loving mine with cfx
Have a great time @ Nexus 4.
I only registered today, after reading along and flashing my DHD for the past one and a half years..
Also thought about moving on to other phones now, but none of them really suits my need. One X looked awesome, but Hardware/Software didn't excite me. S3 works like a charm, but I couldn't stand that cheap plastic cover. Note II pretty much the same, and can't be used with one hand. One X+ is quite awesome, but already feels outdated with the DLX in clear sight - plus no LTE here. And Nokia and Motorola can't excite me either.
Maybe the updated DLX (LTE, non-cable loading, 2500+ mAh) will be what I'm looking for.. but until then, I guess I'm staying with my beloved DHD.
It simply is a flawless device.

I'm using Sabsa Prime v9.0 at the moment, and it has fantastic battery life, even with Wifi turned on and doing stuff every now and then, it holds for an entire day, with mobile internet probably more, haven't tested that yet though.
Unfortunately the ROM is taken offline at the moment, they are saying the dev copied some code from somewhere, nobody knows if it's true.. you will have to wait a few days, until it hopefully is online again. :fingers-crossed:

I only registered today, after reading along and flashing my DHD for the past one and a half years..
Also thought about moving on to other phones now, but none of them really suits my need. One X looked awesome, but Hardware/Software didn't excite me. S3 works like a charm, but I couldn't stand that cheap plastic cover. Note II pretty much the same, and can't be used with one hand. One X+ is quite awesome, but already feels outdated with the DLX in clear sight - plus no LTE here. And Nokia and Motorola can't excite me either.
Maybe the updated DLX (LTE, non-cable loading, 2500+ mAh) will be what I'm looking for.. but until then, I guess I'm staying with my beloved DHD.
It simply is a flawless device.

im pretty sure the nexus 4 will satisfy you.
at least for me...it did.
Nexus 4 is not under the contract.
(my contract ended so i can get another newer phone whenever I want + Nexus 4)
Nexus 4 has great spec for its low price.
Nexus 4 can fit into 1 hand
Nexus 4 comes with the latest updates and provides fast updates
It is pretty normal that people sooner or later will change their devices, especially in the world of Android where the new/improved hardware coming out every 6 months or so, render even the today flagship devices to obsolete within less than 1 year (look at the fate of One X).
Right now I still rocking my DHD with ARHD 6.3.3, it is still runs very fine since I bought it brand new earlier this year except for battery which is already shown the sign of decreased performances. So, congratulations for those who had already have One X or the shiny new Nexus 4 in their hands! See you in that devices forum next year when I have some money to throw at that flagship.
Nice. Congrats

Hi,
I'm a big Samsung fan, i've had the S1, S2 and currently own the S3..at the moment i'm running cyanogenmod 10.1 and after a few initial misgivings about it's lack of features compared to a sammy touchwiz rom ... i'm really starting to like the aosp feel and look..
Now after a year of owning the S3 i'm getting a bit restless and feel like a change.. the nexus 4 is the phone that's intriguing me most. So I have a really simple question, is it a sensible move to the 4 from the S3.
Carl.
Yes only if non removable battery or SD card is not a problem which I personally don't mind and the camera won't to better but around the same and no lte then I'd say go for it , it does give you a bang for your buck especially with development I use P.A which is awesome

The main pros of the Nexus 4 that I keep listing anytime I tell people about it are the following:
1. Price. $350 is pretty much half the price of any other competitor to the Nexus 4
2. Pure Android, updated directly from Google. As soon as a new version of Android is released, it's on the Nexus. Google develops Android FOR this device.
3. Design. Glass front and back, it's a solid phone. Looks sleek.
Now, newly-released phones do have slightly better hardware. But we're getting to the point of diminishing returns. We're packing so much hardware into these devices, you'll hard-pressed to find software that actually makes use of it. I think the only debate you should be having is buy the Nexus 4 now, or wait until the next Nexus comes out, possible during the holidays. That isn't to say this phone won't still be a solid phone then, but I can understand if some people wait to buy updated versions.
To answer your question: yes. It is definitely worth it. At $350, it's fiscally irresponsible NOT to buy a Nexus 4. Right now I'm paying $30/mo for a tablet plan on AT&T with 3gb of data. Having weird and crazy options like that don't seem to happen with other phones. I feel like the Nexus 4 is YOUR phone, not 80% your phone, 20% the manufacturer's.
Spoiler alert: I might be a little biased, but c'mon. It's a sweet phone.
No, don't buy a N4. You obviously can't be bothered to research and figure out if this phone is worth it or not. You definitely aren't going to do any other research when you attempt to Root, Rom, and Mod......Buy a different phone and clutter their forums.:silly:
Definitely get the phone. It's worth every penny. Root it and put Franco kernel and you're good for the entire day.

Before I read everyone else's post I want to say I came from the gs3 had gs2. I would do it again in a heart beat. However it's not a super huge upgrade like it was from gs1 to gs2 or even gs2 to gs3. The software is where I enjoyed the phone the most.
I loved my screen on my gs2 and gs3 on this I wasn't impressed until I got used to it. Now I feel samsung screens have to much pop in the colors
Hope this made sense

is the phone worth it, hell yeah for 350$ you can't get better. Is it worth it for you? You'll have to answer that question yourself.

Assholes like you are why XDA has a bad reputation with newcomers. People come here FOR research, prick.
Go for it and join in all the fun on XDA! Cool

Well the guy is trying to get perspective from people who actually own the device and use it day to day which is much different than reading any review from someone who might be biased in one way or another.
Maybe the op could have used a different subject or maybe asked what everyone thinks of the phone from actual owners.
Just something to consider before jumping to conclusions

Not in love with the Nexus 4. Have had it since January when it replaced my SGS2 (T989). I really appreciated not having to search for the least buggy ROM, as the stock was nice but at this point I'm dissatisfied with the Camera, which seems to produce mostly mediocre pictures (sadly, and since my other devices and cameras produce better ones, I'm afraid it's not (usually) operator error); the screen, whose color palate I don't love and whose auto-brightness is chronically dim (which can of course be mostly remedied by not using auto-brightness, though wish I could), and lastly the touch sensitivity, which I may try to adress now—I understand there are fixes. Nevertheless, I'm gonna see what T-Mobile will sell me a SGS4 for...

Cheers for the help.. i've read dozens of reviews, spec lists and browsed many forums to get a decent idea of the phone, I thought i'd ask people who may have previously had the Galaxy line of phones and XDA seemed a logical place to do so..
I've been a registered member of this site for probably 2 years and never created a thread before, simply because of the very hostile and condescending attitude of some of the members and BINGO, you did yourself proud mate..
Carl.
N4 is awesome bro get one.i never regretted not buying a note2
