Hey, Galaxy S3 users!
I thought I'd make a sort of general thread so that we can all talk here, introduce each other, bash a certain company, and have a general discussion. It'd be a good way to help the newbies out, too. The clutter of extra threads in the General section is really annoying so let's keep the extra talk here!
Remember to be civil; we're all part of the same community! :highfive:
Just call it:
The Big OffTopic Thread

A General thread in the General section!!!
sounds cool!!

Haha. It IS an off-topic thread with a spice of on-topic stuff.
I keep looking at the new threads (more have been added), and it's getting rather ridiculous. People will post anything and everything and I'd rather that they post it here instead of cluttering the General section up!

Well, too bad hardly anyone's gonna listen
Hell, many noobs don't even listen to veyka, and still open up JB crap posts instead of posting in the JB thread. Even I think I did that regarding the error 7 thing which was kinda about JB.
I'm sorry for that, though.

....Introductions Please: Name is Sean, live in Scarborough, work as a boiler and refrigeration specialist at a large frozen food company. Think that "a certain company's" designs are pretty good , but they are way overpriced, the OS sucks and the "PC's" are only good for graphic design.(my opinion).
General Discussion: what would you like to talk about?
Found tons of stuff on this forum as I am a newbie. Used to run on BB, but switched to S3 in July.

Thank you, thank you. Nokia once were the best. Couldn't beat a 5110! Brilliant phone. 3310 not so good. At that point I switched to Sony Ericcson (sic?) with a P900, which looked the b*******. Even Mr Bond used one in Die Another Day (I think it was that one anyway). Then BB9700, now S3 which is awesome, and there's more people that I work with have them after dumping "rotten fruit company's" *****3's and 4's.

This is the best place where i can ask about any query on HTC HD2...
The HTC HD2 is finally available in India so iam going to buy it asap...
The price inc VAT is Rs 36,990/- on Univercell...
I have ordered it and it should be available within 3-4 days...
I have been reading all the feedbacks from the members here about the HTC HD2...
Some are positive but also some are negative...
So i wanted to know all the Pros and Cons of this device...
Thanks!

To be fair, the OP's question is so vague that advising him to search is the only suitable answer to give. There are numerous threads on this forum that discuss the pros and cons of the HD2 and it wouldn't be too hard to search for them and get an idea of the problems that people are having.
Quote: You sir are very rude and codescending.
No i dont think so. There are really lots of threads around here about the good and bad sides of the HD2. Just do some search. Thats not meant in a rude way. But another discussion of what is good and bad would be too much (in particular: as he has already ordered the device he will have to do a lot of searching in the next weeks Get used to it.

Errr I don't think so to be perfectly honest - to go to the trouble of posting a thread which has an animated google search thing shows an element of cockyness, otherwise known to the common man as rude and condescending.
And yet it answered the question better than anything yet posted?

Sorry if it sounded rude, but you don't know how boring it gets having a thread started with a title that doesn't match the question and then its the same old, pro's and con's. It just starts a war against the iPhone users which gets tiring.

just go here... http://lmgtfy.com/ and type in the search box and click "Google Search" it then creates a link for you. Great way of putting a point over!
Short answer... the HD2 is for you if you are looking for a multimedia device.
If you want a business phone, forget about it... don't let that windows mobile thing tricks you.
HD2 is a Iphone competitor, just watch HTC's CEO annoucing the Leo and comparing it to the Iphone...
lol i just needed some pros and cons on this device and u guys started fighting on some other topic...
i know the basic pros and cons which are posted all over the internet..
but i needed suggestions from you guys....who r using this phone right now in their daily life...
hehe gotta love LMGTFY.com, great concept

Haha, this thread is obviously just meant to poke fun, but as you can see, some people just take this so seriously sometimes...it's rather amusing
This thread will get closed, as it does in fact accomplish nothing. I just wanted, if only for a short period of time, to bring into light how much effort people put in to complaining around here. No, it is most certainly not everybody. But for crying out loud, the general section is beginning to look like an activist corner.
An outsider would come to our forum, see all those threads I posted...and probably just think of how much of an ungrateful bunch we are. I mean people have every right to their opinion, but seriously, there are enough threads to start a "hate" section.

A forum is a gathering place for opinions. A lot of people are pretty pissed at Samsung and are sharing their opinions. Just because you don't agree with them does not make them wrong.

please quote which post i said their opinions are "wrong"....in fact..if you check my last post, i said that eeveryone is entitled to their opinions
HOWEVER, its not fair to the people who are making due with what we have and having fun making it better, to have their posts absolutely buried by 12+ threads complaining about LITERALLY the same issues. Its one thing to have an opinion, but its another to jam it down everyones throat in hopes that everyone will follow you.
Does more than one person have the same opinion? of course! But organize it. consolidate it. dont drown the forum in negativity. at that point its just sloppy *****ing.

hey guys. thought id fill you in on some info then ask for a favour
as you all know j.Anderson is a tremendous pain in the kneck. and has been banned for being one.
however another thread popped where you all speculated its was his second account. the thread was deleted but im here to tell you it was his account.
the reason im telling you this is because now i know he is not beyond making sock-puppets to make stupid posts
so the favour i want to ask is, if you see a post that seem familiar in wording or content. as well as reporting via the correct methods could you also let me know.
weve had this issue before with another user not long before 2.1 was due to be released and i dont want it to happen again
thanks in advance

Will do, chief!
I am absolutely convinced that he is mentally ill, possibly even schizophrenic. I think he really believes that he has some secret or unique knowledge. Some of his posts at talk.sonyericsson.com are even more puzzling.
yeah i agree his posts are nonsensical. i remembered the other user i had trouble with. Its was iHim.
Looks like the neighborhood watch is now in effect! We'll be on the lookout! That goober's posts stick out like a flasher in a trenchcoat at the playground and he's likely in the same state of mind.

It's too bad XDA is overrun with assholes. If you don't care he's leaving, then don't reply and his post will quickly fall the bottom and no one has to read it. Take your insecurities out on someone in real life; see how that works out for you.
G1-8701, peace out. Enjoy your new phone. Though, you should really check out the new Atrix 2. It's way underrated and the sleeper phone of the year (or couple months, whatever it turns out to be).

On so many levels, XDA used to be so much different. (AKA a lot friendlier)
The people trolling in threads and others retaliating with profanity is exactly why we are seeing more and more devs leaving.
We need to have more "community" going on around here. If you don't like a thread, please fight the urge to ignore it instead of getting into a flame war.
And on that note, can we please lock this up?...

Agreed. I tried making a thread to get people too come togther and acomplish something for the betterment of our device and of course same deal someone had too come in and run there mouth. I should have ignored him but spoke my mind and now my thread is closed. Come on people were all on here because we like our device not too argur and pick fights with people.

If wiping it doesn't work,paint it blue(Will match the ICS theme too) and throw it in the sea.It's effective.You'll never have problems with that phone again.

It's a good thing that noobull****(You know,noobs' bull**** ) tend to be seperated from development thread.They just tend to though.When the day comes that XDA forums will be divided in noob and developer forums and noobs stick to their rightful place,then XDA will be a better place.Ahh Utopia...
To avoid misunderstandings:
I don't call anyone who isn't a developer a noob.If I did,I'd be calling 90% of XDA's users,including me and people much better than me,noobs.Noobs are those typical idiots with that strange sense of entitlement to other,more skilled people's work,while they don't contribute to anything.Although I'm pretty sure most of you know what I mean...

I knew my spur of stupidity would give good feedback. haha.
Yeah, well keep in mind that most of us have been noobs at sometime or another. What's important is how long you move away from n00bishness and become like everyone else. heh

You either speek Greek for some reason,or we Greeks are much more common than I thought.
Anyway,yes,we've all acted noobish at times,but there are two types of noobs as I have said elsewhere:
i)The "I want to learn" noob,who is the good noob and the one to be deprived of his noobishness quickly and once and for all.
ii)The "I'm an ass and think I deserve it all" noob,who is that typical idiot that asks the same question that was answered two posts above his.Number (ii) is the plague of every tech forum,not only XDA.
Being a noob isn't bad by itself.The problem is which noob type you choose to be.

Haha..I love your posts.. Make so much sense...And fully fledged Greek my friend..
I choose number 1..That is the kinda noob i consider myself to be..There are still things i am learning...Do not thing it would be to the level of dev or themer but i feel pretty good so far in what i have learned in the short space i have been using android.
Rant... ish.
I don't think it's just forums where you find this issue. The world seems to be full of people these days who seem to think that the entire planet owes them something although they have probably not done a days honest work in their entire pathetic existence.
Rather off-topic wouldn't you say

That is the point of having this thread...So can people post the normal ICS stuff and other things they want to say....Not filling the thread on the dev section with it..
And yeah unfortunately this is life..you will get those kinda people werever you go even if its online or not...

Hah,tell me.And one of these guys happens to be teaching me math at school.Pathetic sometimes...Not to sound like a ****er,but some people here consider me something like a genious(at math,physics and chemistry) and he insists that I'm good because he's a good teacher.Stopping this because it'll get ugly!

Hah!We Greeks are very common to stumble upon after all!
Always happy to see that there is "just-one-more" of us.
Anyway,I don't have the XDA bug at such a degree,but I do have some bad ORD(Obsessive Rom-flashing Disorder).Blood examination didn't show anything.I'll try acupuncture.
