Galaxy S Pro coming to Sprint and it's 4g enabled - Hero CDMA General

Maybe it is time to send HTC a message and say goodbye. This thing looks nice and if it has the specs of the original Galaxy...... Thoughts? http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/14/sprints-4g-equipped-samsung-galaxy-s-pro-in-the-wild/#comments http://androidcommunity.com/exclusive-more-pictures-of-the-galaxy-s-pro-20100614/

not to good looking but certainly interesting

So long as they fix the CDMA lockup that plagues the moment

Remember the moment... Thats all I have to say. "Remember the Moment"!

True, but from the reports coming out of the Evo forums, even the Moment doesn't seem too bad.

i am a firm believer that HTC should have all rights to the androidOS

Yeah, but then it wouldn't be an open source OS

Finally. I didn't care for the Moment, but this looks good. I want my keyboard back. It will certainly make ROMS easier to play.

Very true, but no matter who runs android less not forget who was the first to bring android to the public! To bad it had to be T-Mo that got to carry it. psst!

im sorry guys but samsung is a joke when it comes to smart phones, i will never own one. they should stick to making tvs and whatever else they make non smartphone related, i have also heard bad things about evo, something about the screen messing up at the bottom for people causing led bright light to shine so bright under the screen, kinda like that separation from the screen and the bottom of the hero how you can kinda see the light. I hate tht about the hero, why couldnt they seal that better. just piss poor

I do agree with your assessment about Samsung.....as far as software is concerned, but I have to say that the hardware and or manufacturer that Samsung uses is FAR superior to that of HTC. I came from an Instinct before the Hero. It was absolutely the worst software ever introduced on a phone but it was also the best hardware that I have seen to this day. Combine that with the upgraded tech inside and Android for the OS it really cant be bad. Then again, after the Instinct, I swore that there would never be another Samsung in my pocket. lol I'll probably keep to that promise.

While i agree that sammy's suck.. this looks to be a great play for sprint.. the more hi-end androids the better.. maybe they can steal some thunder from verizon and their onslaught of droids..
If sprint will market these hi-end androids against verizon and att showing that the plans are way better.. etc.. and do it right..maybe sprint can gain some some customers etc..
Take dan off the air.. bring back the pin drop guy from way back.. then promote the hell outta the plans and phones.. lol sure fire win in my book.. or just show some t & a holding the evo etc..lol

My fiance has the moment and I do kinda like theslide out keyboard, nice for the terminal apps and stuff. Also nice when you dont feel like swyping or typing on the virtual kb.

you are correct about sam and their hardware components. Far superior to htc. Is this sam going to run android? i guess i should take a look at that link.

I don't like samsung phones, but I do like power.
This phone has a 1ghz processor, but that doesn't say it all.
Supposedly this particular 1ghz HummingBird processor is 3 times more powerful than the snapdragons we drool over.
Crappy software...maybe...but AOSP on this thing? HOLY CRAP!

Why I think the Nexus One will be the best Android phone until the next Nexus phone

My opinion;
Despite all the other HTC Android phones coming the Nexus One will remain on top. The reason why I think this is because having a phone directly from Google itself means you'll get updates before anybody, and popularity from any other 'Droid phone won't beat out a Android phone from Google itself.
So to everyone who has a Nexus One or those people who are scared too get one because another one might make it look obsolete..DON'T WORRY. The Nexus One will remain on top due to the fact that it's from Google itself.
Just my two cents..
I agree with you on that. I just made the leap from the TP2 after running Android on it for a couple of days. I love it. Its awesome.

LOL, I did the same thing. My TP2 is now collecting dust.
So what you're saying is that because this phone is being so heavily backed by Google it will have a very long lifespan?
I think I can agree with that
I came from the CLIQ and man is this phone a speeeeeed demon!
well so far there is very little (to none) support from google......and Nexus One is the worst cell phone experience i have ever had.
The phone is good, the hardware is good, the OS is ok.......It just feels like everything is in beta or made from cheapo parts.

Well, you know, you should lay off from Google a little. This is there first directly sold phone, and they weren't exactly prepared for all the whining and problems people were going to have. I don't know how they didn't expect for nearly everyone to complain, but apparently they weren't exactly ready to join the phone competition. They haven't had to deal with any problems till now because they have been selling their Android powered phones through carriers..
I honestly don't understand how this phone could have so many aggravations for people though.. like the above poster said, you should also be more specific.
The good thing is that if the 3g connection is good, htc/moterola/exc can't put the blame on Google, Google has to accept the blame, thus forcing them to fix it snappy (hopefully like we've seen with the radio haha)!
coming from touch pro 2 the N1 is amazing
gotta be honest i miss the keyboard but its alright
just the fact that the phone has a 1ghz processor tells me that they are palnning to keep it for a while. ive had an iphone 3g too and so far i still like the n1 the best ...
just one problem so far - the youtube player is stupid and slow... =[
other than that 5 stars

Are people still getting dust under the screen...or has that been fixed.I'm debating if I should get the N1.I had the G1 and loved all the mods you could do to it and the N1 has twice the specs so it's a powerhouse and the only phone out there close to those specs is the HD2.Man I just can't decide, maybe I should wait till all the kinks are worked out.

Since you have 1 YEAR to replace it, just get it and if the dust is really bad, send it back in 360 days

I don't know if there is a limit. But if there is, then there's even LESS reason to send it in right away, like so many people are doing, and then getting phones with the dust issue once again. Get the phone, enjoy, send it back at 11 months.

The Truth about the Nexus One. *NON-BIASED*

Now that I have sold my Nexus One. i was very sad immediantly just because the phone was sexy as hell and amazing speed. The college i got accepted to sends all incoming freshmen a iphone 3gs and are required to use it to keep in contact with professors.
Now that thats said i want to continue with whats the truth about the nexus.
1) i had a problem with the headphones along with alot of other people when listening to music threw your headphones that came with the nexus you would get a shock... for me it mostly happend when i was plugged into a computer
2) DUST...omg the dust i got under the corner of the screen was annoying the crap out of me. i couldnt get it sent back because i wanted to keep the engraving on the phone. and i didnt want to wait 2 weeks for them to send me my phone back.
3) the phones speed is AMAZING but i feel as if google hasnt completly utilized the speed and GPU yet. *if they can pull this off, things would be so much better than the iphone*
want to add other things about this phone *without being biased* ? go ahead lets see if we can get some good information in here for new android users
Yeah...
Non-biased my ass. The only thing the iPhone does better than the N1 is the app store. To say they need to work on their GPU is just a pathetic representation of a review...
I'm not even going to try wasting my time to make this a worthwhile thread. OP, you're just... Ugh..
Too LAZY to send it back and wait a couple weeks for a problem... That's YOUR fault. There's policies in place to remedy issues... *****ing isn't the appropriate remedy.
P.S. Shocking from earbuds happens with more than just the stock headphones. Go google it.
they need to fix the dust under the screen issue.
!maybe a way to upscale low res images from the interwebs so they don't look like ass on the high res display!
but honestly, i have been more then happy with my Nexus after selling my 3GS.

THe headphones that come with the N1 doesn't work well on other standard 3.5mm jacks because the pins are specifically designed for the N1. Apparently if you insert the headphones into your computer half way it should work like normal headphones.

There was exactly no reason for the OP as he just stated a few well-known issues that people can experience with this phone. Every device has a its own set of issues and the OP will now be fortunate enough to experience the many IPhone problems.

People are growing tired of "it's okay, it's only the internet" as a justification for poor grammar and ill-written thoughts.

Let me help you with that since you'll need to know this in college:
i spelt threw wrong....woah! you're big and bad.
Your is a possessive term, where as you're is the conjugation of "you are". So in the future, make sure you check if your usage is right by replacing the term with "you are" and seeing if it makes sense to you.
Anyway dude...bro... you need to grow up and stop acting like an e-Gangsta. To be fair, nothing you posted is anything new. We've all heard it all before and so the thread is a flaming waste of space. That being said, good luck in college.
The phone has a powerful processor and an impressive amount of RAM. I dont think it uses either one nearly to its potential (at least i hope not), which is kind of cool because, although the phone is smooth and fast, the performance ought to be able to be vastly improved with software updates. I like the phone a lot but i also think its fair and justified to expect a lot more from it down the road.
If anyone that knows about hardware can confidently tell me not to expect much more from the device please post that information so that i may sell this phone. thanks
'Through' is the correct spelling. 'Threw' is the past tense of 'throw
"Yesterday, I threw a ball through a hoop."
I'm glad Jesus can afford iphone 3gs's for all students!
Jesus is a baller, lol, im still confused about this dust issue, does anyone have a picture of what this is all about? I got mine the day it launched and I have no idea what people are talking about I havent had any problems with dust and really cant see how it could get under the screen, I keep mine in my pocket every day so Im sure it woulda happened by now if it could. Id also have to agree that the only thing the iphone has is the app store, once androids gets up there it will be a lot better because there's a lot more potential. Id already have to say that handcent, dolphin, and google voice are good examples of that because apple only lets you use their stuff and blocks something if they already have an option is pretty wacksauce in my opinion, why not let the people choose which they like the best, makes no sense to me. Oh well. /rant

Yea I hocked my N1 to the lucky bidder.
I don't really know what I didn't like about it. It felt truly like it wasn't the BEST smartphone experience I could have had. Everything just felt, weird? Slow? Uncoordinated? I don't know. Its a fine piece of machinery no doubt but I don't think I was ready for the inherent clusterfuck Android is.
And in all seriousness I probably will come back to this. But for now...
Its back to the Razr. Most reliable thing in existence.
Rofl, back to the Razr? Most reliable phone in existence? You've got to be F'n kidding me, right?
You can't be serious.. a RAZR? Welcome to 1999. Lol -That's like browsing the web with a potato.
It's ok, the Nexus one, two, three, four.. are all waiting for you.
There's no waving emoticon?
Well, enjoy I guess. No disrespect intended here, but if you're fine w/ a Razr... Then it obvious you really don't need, nor WANT, a smartphone. That's not meant to be an insult, but rather a simple observation. Smart phones are about everything OTHER than the phone portion in my mind. For me, that's the last thing my N1 does .
Good luck.
That's sad... I sure hope it enjoying your razr, gotta admit its a very reliable phone, I once threw it at someone and left him unconscious. Helped me get out of a potential danger. LOL
The nexus one isn't for everyone I guess, specially the technology challenged

I'm not sure what you mean by slow and uncoordinated. Please elaborate. I have never seen a phone as quick and responsive as the N1. If you're a hardcore blackberry fan they you probably wouldn't like the N1 anyway.

I bought the razr when it first came out and it was 600.00 on a contract. I had it two days, dropped it, and it landed on the corner hinge. The area that cracked is so thin that the screen came unattached and all i had was a keypad and speakerphone to make calls on. I had to send it back to motorola because at&t wouldn't insure it, and they lost it. I got it back 3 months later locked, and they wouldn't send me a code so I had to pay for one.
Never buy motorola without a swap plan in place, they lunch too hard on getting things done.

The nexus definitely feels a little unstable in many respects. But with its hardware and being presumably on the top of Google's mobile priorit list, this phone has more potential than any other phone out there. Its almost as smooth as the iPhone with the potential to put the iPhone to shame. Just gotta be patient and let google iron out the software. This baby's still a baby!

Please explain how it's unstable. Are you rooted and running a custom ROM? I'm totally stock and my phone's been rock solid stable. A huge contrast with my rooted G1 with various custom ROMs.

Their phones really are quite ugly, though, if we're talking about design rather than build quality (which the dust issue qualifies as).

If you were thinking anout getting N1.. DO IT!

I just switched from touch pro 2 and let me tell you... There is no comparison. I had TP2 for a year and almost everytime I had to do something fast, look something up or do somehing more complicated than calling - it would fail me. It led to a constant feeling of doubt and being unsure if it will just freeze when I need it the most.
N1 is freaking fast. Everything on it JUST WORKS. There is no guessing, like on TP2 - "omg I hope this launches.. I hope I don't have to soft reset.." - everything is integrated, every transition happens in a snap, every task you throw at it is handled immediatly and with style. It's a reliable life partner.
If you are undecided like I was a week ago about switching to N1, do it - you'll wish u've done it sooner.
Android FTW.

What? Sleep beside you?? Are they supposed to do more than that? I'm sure you can download some argumentative audio to play from time to time.

It looks almost black & blue already.
Its far better than the TP2 but it reboots by itself alot. I don't know why. I do understand you, coming form that phone also. But its not perfect yet.

My n1 never random reboots.....Ever since JIT got throw out the window, no reboots....I had almost 12 days uptime once....
What is JIT?
Scratch that. I found what it means. How do you get rid of it? I've read its built in.

Yes, I was pretty undecided up until now. I have a SE X1 and really, I know what you're talking about when you mention "doubt". I just hate the thing and WM makes it a nightmare. When I got my X1 I was thinking of keeping the phone for a long time, I wasn't expecting a $900 phone to turn out to be complete crap both hardware wise (flimsy, crappy keyboard, crappy paint, etc.) and software wise (WM!!!). Hopefully, I can use the N1 for a longer time with the updates and all...
I guess I'll be getting it now for sure, the only thing left to decide is whether or not it's worth it to wait the extra time to have it engraved...ha!

Actually I ordered mine engraved and it shipped the same day. Suppose to be delivered today .
You may also want to check this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654493
I also came from a TP2 and I don't miss it or windows mobile at all. The laggy feel to if it was on for a day with no soft reset. Glad to see I wasn't the only one who made the switch.
And to fill that final need.......
go and download dildroid just google it. Now your phone can handle anything, no really, I mean anything!

Dude, be VERY careful about the engraving.
Read the warranty policy - if you engrave it, it becomes a non-refundable phone that can only be sent in for repairs, if needed. Also, think if you'll want to sell it in a year or two.. nobody wants your "My name is John and I have a 12" tool" engraving.
Not that it's a bad service, just make sure you consider that.

Lauged so hard I cried hahaha awesome!
Nah I was thinking something like:
Andrei + Kat
2009.07.15
Or something that would make the "wife" happy. I have to be careful what I engrave otherwise I'll get the cold treatment XD.
Oh well

Hehe. My name is Andrei as well actually =)
I'm thinking that if I do want some "engraving" on it, I could get away with a transparent acid-sticker of a sort.. at least that I can remove and sell/return if need arises.
Although only death can separate me form my N1 at this point.
If Adobe would hurry and release the fully gpu accelerated flash player for this phone, I'd give it a 10 out of 10.
Seriously! The ipad / iphone guys are crying so hard about wanting html 5 everywhere because they're not allowed to have flash.. I worry that Adobe's missed the boat on this one.
Not a single developer leaking the gpu flash 10 player for android either..

Newer Nexus One's to feature HTC's new maxTouch technology?

Do you think it'll happen? There has been rumors floating around about it.
Doubt it.
Where are the rumours from? here?
Damn the title got me excited. Well I sure hope so because I was planning on ordering a nexus one in 41 days when i'm 22 months into my t-mobile contract. Could you please link us to a news article that talks about this. Thanks
I was on someone else's computer and don't have the link for it though. Sorry.
Id sell this and buy a new one.

No there haven't.
well... technically he just started one
I don't know if the newer batch of Nexus One will have this new feature/digitizer technology, but endgadget did mentioned that HTC droid incredible does uses this new technology.
that would blow
"People wildly speculating on these forms" != "There has been rumors floating around about it"
Haven't seen a single word about this aside from this thread.

Why would that blow? How can anyone expect the hardware world not to continue evolving. There will always be something better than what you have... if you have the best right now, something is about to come out that beats it. You can't expect that new technology in an embedded device, such as a phone, will take the place of older technology used in current generation devices.
There is no reason to believe that HTC is going to change their manufacturing process for the Nexus One, or any of their currently released phones. The new technology will be in place for NEW devices, it would be quite odd for them to just start making Nexus Ones with different hardware simply because that hardware exists in the new devices they are manufacturing.

Not when you can still say "warranty exchange."
Actually, judging by how fast google goes through versions and software (look at Chrome browser, already at 4.0 or 5.0), google is probably already testing Nexus Two. That thing'll probably have new screen.
They got a contract with current screen manufacturer, I bet they won't worry about switching now.
Google shows that this is the start of this rumor....

No it wouldn't. What would blow is if advancements stopped.

Lmao.
For some reason I believe this a stupid question. The bashing and returns that would occur after this change, and the complaints and people maybe even wanting their money back would be so gradual it would cause a bad costly uproar.
People would form small not needed hate groups, make *****y blog post about how Google somehow "scamed" customers, Google's name would be flamed harshly by people who want attention. I could just imagine this happening..

ya, it would blow if they implemented this "new technology" on a phone thats already out.
kinda like what they did with the myTouch. they add a 3.5mm jack?? thats lame because all the people who own the phone previous to this launch now want that phone but cant get it because they just bought the other version like two months earlier (and just in case you take this literally I'M GENERALIZING)

jesus christ. thank you so much for your pointless reply. I'm not an idiot, I'm saying that IT WOULD SUCK ON MY BALLSACK if they put NEWER technology on a phone that is already ON THE SHELVES.
You all take things way too seriously/literally so calm the **** down and overlook my post if you feel like you should waste your dumb energy replying to it.

I completely agree though. Some people talk out of their butt sometimes.
