Are you kidding?
This is what the Vibrant should have been.
If you really want the next version of the Galaxy S, you'd be stupid to buy that phone especially with all the buzz the S2 is generating.

Definitely going to buy this!!! Oh wait i'm not stupid. I'm getting the s2, a worthy upgrade
I actually got to play with one a few days ago....... nice phone but it really is just our phone with FFC (which I have) and a 4g modem (which i will port) with some other window dressings (which we will Hack/steal and install) The Samsung S2 NOW that is deal changer !

LOL, i'm sure he meant porting the software over our vibes and then installing a compatible 4G modem just as we've installed a i9000 cam.
I'm just curious of the cam part, if it's an actual i9000 cam or something different. If the hardware is different, then i'd find out where it came from and what not's. I've also heard that rumor has it, the handset used in the MWC, they tested the banding issues and it has NONE, whatsoever. But... It's a rumor. No credibility.
Check out anandtech for the preliminary galaxy s2 benchmarks. For some reason the tegra 2 gpu and cpu wise score higher...
Maybe the drivers just are finalized.

No word yet on whether it will be released to the US or not.
As for being to be with TMO, no word. BUT, i did find out that the international version that will come out on 3rd Qrtr of this year in Europe IS compatible to the AT&T and Canada Bell's Band. Someone from AT&T can just purchase these baby and stick their sim's in, and BAM. They can use it right out of the box.
But i'm not about to switch to AT&T, well, not yet at least. LOL

It is not necessarily a hardware issue, a lot of phone out there are going to be converted via software only, and I suspect the Vibrant is one of those. Either way I am waiting for the S2......... my point is that taking the modem software from 850 mhz to 700 mhz or 2100 to 2200mhz does not require new hardware..........
just software
for about 40 bucks we can have the exact same phone... wow so much of a change (sarcasm). would like to see 4g though and i wonder if the back would fit on our phones cus i want to get one
I will be getting a sgs4g on release day due to my girlfriend wanting my vibrant... so I am adding a line for her getting the sgs4g and giving here my vibrant (its what she wants lol) so by the time the sgs2 comes out i will have an upgrade on my line. everyone wins.

My contract with t-mobile has been up for two months now. I was waiting for the Galaxy S II to come out in the US, but it has been postponed. Would you recommend getting the G2x now or waiting for the galaxy s II?
My main concerns are:
-less development support for the G2x
-LG made the G2X
What are you opinions? thanks.

1. Less development? Cyanogen just bought a G2x.....
2. LG makes good hardware. They just suck at software. For a solution to that, see #1.
G2x has a lot of support, cyanogen himself is working on cyanogenmod for the g2x, is just a matter of choice, what you like the most, i like my g2x and don't have any problem with it.

G2x among the best
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
I actually think the G2x will have way MORE development support than the Galaxy S II. Do we even know yet for sure that the GSII won't be locked down in some way? G2x is easily rootable and comes with vanilla Android, along with its very high end hardware specs. This is a developer's dream phone.
oooh daaaamn nice scores !!!
plus we got G2X ! it's better than 2X ! (better benchmarks scores, we got P999 !!!!!)
This is IMPORTANT to bear in mind about the Galaxy S II:
The international version might run the lightning-fast in-house Exynos CPU, which seems a bit faster than the Tegra 2. However, the US version of the GSII might very well have the same CPU the G2x has, the Tegra 2. Google it.
That said, the GS2 will likely have similar hardware specs, probably a little more RAM, and a LOT more crapware piled on top.

The big deal is that it should be the first device to launch with Ice Cream Sandwich, and being a nexus devcie pure vanilla android os, all other specs/features are rumoured through leaked documents and "reliable sources who cannot be named" but sound promising!
I hope there's an ATT compatible version, cause I'll take it over moving to GSII.
Yea same here my contract up im waiting for it to come to att.
im thinking Maybe a month after the Droid Prime hits Verizon........
Cuz im with yall........The Prime or the Celox will be my next phone.
i have been reading the prime may not be LTE compatible though, i hope thats wrong.

i must agree sounds like crap.... im sticking with my INFUSE 4G
I personally call BS on "Droid Prime" I don't think Google would allow Verizon to rename their own Flagship device. It has been "Nexus" One/S/should be Prime. But well have to wait and see on that... I will be devastated.

Crap? It is a completely modern phone, I need to look at the processor specs to see if the gpu is up to part with other new phones but I know the omap4 chips are no slouch. I don't know how they truly compare to the Samsung and Qualcomm processors which each have strong point in different areas but it has to be better than the Tegra2 powered phones by a long shot. Also at 9mm thick with the curved ergonomic that will be at least and resolution there is nothing about it that isn't up to par with the competition. Remember without am adequate lens mega pixels are just a waist of space
The only reason I haven't gotten the SGS2 is because I'm waiting to see if the Prime is on AT&T, if it's going to be a Verizon exclusive, then that's just going to be retarded that Google would let them rename their phone + probably load it with bloatware.
It won't happened, all these rumors are from Verizon users who just can't accept the fact that they never get the Prime, believe me, Google wouldn't sell out (at least I hope not.)
Looks like we'll be loosing some more Captivate users next week. Between these two phones it's going to be a tough call on which one to pick up.

Anyone heard what the chipset is on the Vivid yet? While the 1.5 GHz Exynos is appealing; I don't think I can take it being on a Samsung phone anymore. I'm thinking I'd rather have the 1.2 GHz Vivid so I can jump to HTC.
Dude it's not worth upgrading to either of those phones right now. Your best bet is to stick to this Galaxy S II, and wait for the Galaxy S III in February. Do remember that the first LTE phones will most likely have bad battery life.
Isure wish it was the Galaxy S II HD LTE instead. Same specs but with the 4.65 display instead.

All I know is that it's a dual core.
I'm in very much the same boat as you; although the mod community can make the Captivate better than crap, one's got to admit that staying on Samsung stock would be 100% unbearable.
On the other hand, my close friend has an Inspire 4G, which I have borrowed for an extended period of time now; that's been a dream to use, be it Sense 2 or Sense 3.

If upgrading right now, why get the SGSII instead of a Skyrocket or Vivid?
I'm debating which as well. I'm just worried about the SGSII dev support being split between the two (if hardware is different) or there not being much dev support over with the Vivid.
For myself, my phone is a benefit from my work. Which means I should probably stay on the stock ROM since they are paying for it. Not only that, but if something goes wrong during a flash and I mess up my phone I'll be in some trouble at work. Since that leaves me on Samsung's horrible upgrade cycle I'm very inclined to jump ship.
Even though these are new LTE phones for ATT I still believe it's worth it to consider them over the non LTE SGSII. If I'm going to be stuck with a phone for 2 years I would rather have LTE. Since I live in a LTE market it's even more of a draw. If anything, considering the HTC just to get away from Samsung.
Wouldn't be a bad idea to wait a month and see what the reviews are from other XDA members. If the battery life is completely horrible maybe just wait it out. Also my wife is due an update in December. If I do jump and don't like it I could always hand her down whatever I get and pick up something new when we renew her contract.
Regular SGS II is better.

ATT customers are going to be so freaking confused with all the different models of Galaxy S2 available in store and online
I wish Samsung would spend more time taking care of it's current customers by pushing ICS. I know it's about making money but seriously, it's current customer base needs to be happy too. Three Galaxy S models on AT&T. That's just retarded and seems like overkill.
ATT gets so much love from smartphone manufacturers and they are the absolute WORST carrier EVER! EVER! When I was switching carriers I had them for less than a week and it was the worst experience I've had owning a phone since I was on Metro PCS many, many moons ago.
I had an average of 3 dropped calls per day, and they completely f*cked up my very first bill. Overcharging me for crap I did not order. Three phone calls and three visits to the ATT store and they still could not get it right. The third trip was to return everything and tell them where they can stick it, and they are STILL trying to charge me for a month's use when I didn't even have the phone 5 days.
I don't understand why they get so many good phones. It's irritating!
Damn, if I had AT&T and was one of the people to get the first SGS2 I would be BEYOND mad. You buy the latest and greatest for it to be at least relevant for 5-6 months before something else comes out, main reason why I sold my sensation once the Amaze was announced.
i wonder how many people Samsung and Motorola just pissed off with these devices....i mean seriously....Droid Razr Maxx??? Razr just frickin released...although another Skyrocket device should mean another phone where we can use their development, correct?
and yea, the skyrocket is a nice device (and the new one) but id honestly love a device with the Exynos, so if it were me, id probably get the first version

Android is out of control. New phones monthly and lack of support for older phones. Google seems to not care. What's even worst is all these phones all run gingerbread. You buy the newest and greatest and you get last years software.

Personally, the Snapdragon has left a sour taste. Maybe its TouchWiz's fault. Thankfully the SkyRocket, the HD and the Note are all Snapdragon - pushing more pixels with the same CPU = good luck with that. Ergo, not that disappointed.

Hey Fellow Infuser's....
So are you guys thinking about going S3? I am sort of on the fence about it as I am due for an upgrade, but the S3 is launching with a 2 core LTE.
I am thinking they might due the old switcheroo with like the S2 and the Skyrocket bs.....
Would you guys wait for a quad LTE, as the Tegra 3 is has already been through ATT's test?
What do you guys think? Thanks!
NOTE....!
i will get a unbranded unlocked international version
Would love to, if I were due for an upgrade.
I've been thinking of getting the international version that has quad core...but idk, that would mean I would have to sell my infuse...which I really don't want to-i love my infuse lol...but the geeky tech side of me wants the latest and greatest even if the hardware can't be fully utilized lol
Anyways...the duo core coming for att is supposed to have 2gb of ram I believe, where the quad core only has 1gb...
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA
Why the international version? It has no LTE.... HSPA+ is slow enough on my Infuse.
By the way, Samsung already released the source code for the SGS3, so I mean AOSP is going to be on the US carrier phones pretty soon.
All of the phones coming to the US is 2GB's of RAM.
Infuse is a pretty good phone, but I like the new design with more rounded edges and the blue looks pretty hot....
Quad core with LTE is what I am thinking of waiting for but I wonder how far that is along?

old hardware? Actually in this tech world anything more than 3-6months old is considered out date, so it seems....

Its basically the same phone as the SGS3, but pixel density is higher on the SGS3.... but that might be because of a smaller screen.... So basically the exact phone except with some software changes.....
Its the same?
I also got the unbranded note n7000 . I dont think i need the quad core but i do need bigger screen

the international version is tempting but the sgs1 is still badass imho. power isn't everything.. i'm keeping the infuse unless i break another one. then if i have the money it'll be the international sgs3 or if i dont ill get another infuse or captivate.

Hey, Dan.
Long time no see...Hope you're doing good.
hey infuse family !,
yah ya know, just thinkin' since that GSIII will only be sporting duals, id halfta deffinetly go with G-NOTE. If possible, i would overclock her duals to 2.0 ! (im guessing this may only be in my dreams), but if not maybe rock her out to 1.7, 1.9? really get in der and joust her jowls !! And then get that newer hacked/modified S-pen app ive been seein floatin round!! anyone see it? its like a crazy lil' miniature photoshop on the go! and oolala is that stylus like a samurai sword, so precise !! and um, yah !, that good dense pixel-populated screen is soo beautiful and crisp and fine, and the best part of it all is her size ! she's like a gargantuan plus-sized sexy momma, and i cant get enough, i even wish she was bigger cmon samsung give me a full figured 6 incher !! lol !!!
cheers brothers!
While we are on the subject which one the note or the gs3 and reasons why? From what I can tell the at&t versions will be pretty much the same specs but the notes bigger and bigger battery.

Same specs as note... not true. The s3 has 2gb ram and the s4 which annihilates the s3 (note) and does better in tests then the tegra 3. Idk about the new exynos, but id be happy with the gs3 over the note sadly. Note 2 is going to be the best no doubt.
Btw here is att page on the gs3, click on learn more and there you have the major specs for you http://www.att.com/galaxysiii/?wtSlotClick=1-007JMY!903919-1-1&rel=nofollow#fbid=42LHi-vzBIX
BTW it looks like we are getting a home button! Yes im soooo happy about this, finally it will look awesome and look exactly like the international ones.

yeah, i still lurk but i went without a phone for a while and in that time renewed my interests in other things like guitars.... i got another infuse but i just haven't been active on xda for a while. i've been running cyanogenmod but i'm ready to re-explore lb3 soon. i like my phone to function as close to 100% as possible. some stuff in aosp is way better but i need my hdmi and bluetooth (well more so the hdmi. i cant remember the last time i used bt 'cept to sync contacts)

Oh noooo. Im crossing my fingers bigtime. Im going to run over to verizon and tmobile sites to check.
Edit: on verizons site i see no marking like that of atts, i hopefully think that att said that just because later on they are getting a red version http://shop.verizonwireless.com/?id=galaxys3
