Awwww…
I’ll hold on to my GS2 for a while longer now that it’s confirmed.
I installed the official ICS update yesterday via Samsung Kies and it’s still buttery smooth. The only thing I didn’t like was that they took away the background pan effect when you swipe to the next screen. It REALLY bothered me for some reason, so I dumped TouchWiz for Launcher Pro Plus and all is well! 
It took 5 minutes for me to root my GS2. I wish I would have done it a long time ago…:eek:

so i just heard about the unlimited data plans on verizon are getting modified. i have a grandfathered plan and my local rep told me that if i upgrade my contract before the 28th i’ll have unlimited for 2 more years, but if i don’t i’ll have to pay full retail price for phones. kinda upset about this, but i think i’m just gonna bite the bullet and upgrade. is the galaxy s3 going to be as amazing as people make it seem? or is there going to be an upgraded quad core version coming out later?
I would definitely get the GS3 if I was eligible to upgrade…just my opinion.
The Snapdragon S4 1.5 GHz dual-core & 2GB of system RAM should be freaking AMAZING!
thanks for the opinion. i’m still stuck deciding. i have the money but i feel like i shouldn’t spend it… >.>
Yeah, I read about that, and it sucks. I guess the unlimited texting and voice is fine, but that data part bites.
I was also going to put my D2G on my plan for the 3 weeks I’m in America, and just take it off when I’m finished, but apparently that will rid me of my unlimited data plan…and my mom (who has my original D2 consumes 2+GB of data every month)
So I’ll probably just use prepaid. Does Page Plus still activate Verizon phones? Or am I going to have to use Verizon’s prepaid service?
I installed ICS and my bluetooth was all wonky and the keyboard for text messages lagged a lot. I had tmo replace it with a refurb. seems ok now. it probably had to do with wiping the phone and run a clean install of ICS. oh well. I dont really miss the panning bg that much. but thats cool.
Apparently US customers just aren’t ready for quad core devices, we might freak out and start shooting shit up.
anyone checking out this nexus tablet?
what made you ditch apple? why SG3? i would have waited to see what the iPhone5 was offering before i decided.
any must have app or options I should look for, I’ve never owned a smart phone before and I just picked up an android last week.
Which did you get?
I got an lg vs920.
Nice!
A few apps I use quite a bit are Veetle, Tune-In Radio, Beautiful Widgets, and Kies Air.
A few of my favorite games are Super Stickman Golf, Radiant HD, and Gunman Clive.
A couple of good benchmarking apps I use are Nena Mark 1, Nena Mark 2, and Speed Test.
If you choose to root your device, I highly recommend SuperSU, Titanium Backup, ROM Manager, AdFree, and Apps2SD (by Sam Lu).
I’m thinking of picking one up. I’ll wait till Best Buy gets their store demo before picking one up. Also its good to wait for more accessories to be available.

Android is so much fun to personalize. I mainly use iOS devices now, but I do miss things like Go Launcher.
I have a rooted evo that im gonna trade in to sprint to get the G3 for cheaper…will it being rooted be a problem?
From what I’m reading there’s already 4.1 beta romz floating around for it due to an OTA for it at I/O.
