[Q] Need Help With Samsung Galaxy A - General Questions and Answers

Hello Everyone!!
This is my first post.......I am really impressed by the community here.
I live in South Korea and own a Samsung Galaxy A (its only for Korea). You can check specs on gsmarena.
My question is can I change its firmware with Galaxy S or Nexus One or HTC Desire? As they have different Processor than this model and different screen sizes?
Does all hacking techiques that are applicable to Galaxy S will be applicable to Galaxy A as they have somewhat identical OS?
Thank you

[q]Is infuse a galaxy s?

Is the infuse a galaxy s phone because i am currently in a debate with a friend that has the infuse and he says it is a galaxy s....so is it?
Sent from my Infuse 4g via the XDA Dev App
In general it is, but in the states its not. but it is.
It is when it counts. Samsung has a remote viewfinder app for one of its digital cameras that only works with "Galaxy S" devices. And it works with my Infuse 4G, so that is "Galaxy S enough" for me.
It's not branded as a GS in the USA, but it is branded as such in Canada.
Also, hardware-wise it's 90% identical to the GS series.
strictly speaking it is if you are Canadian.
not if you are American.
galaxy s is just s branding at this point. there are sgs labrled phones with less in common to the i9000 than this but there are also many differences between the galaxy s i9000 and the infuse.

Infuse isnt the galaxy series nor in the US neither in Canada. Here in Canada Galaxy Sii is launched separately and infuse is scheduled to launch at rogers on the 27th and its not marketed as galaxy series.
correction: the poster above is right, i just checked here in Canada they are marketing it as Galaxy Infuse. So Im sorry for that.

Which forum is for Samsung Galaxy SII LTE SC-03D (NTT DoCoMo)?

Hi all,
I've just per-ordered Which forum is for Samsung Galaxy SII LTE SC-03D from NTT DoCoMo/Japan. However, I can't figure out which section in this forum is specialized in that phone's accessories, hacks and custom ROMs. Although I could find the following FAQ:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1366130
Still, I found a lot of objections inside about where it should be posted exactly as it seems to me that nobody knows which other phone is it similar to!
Any help?

[Completed] Teach me please

New to xda and adroid alike. I have several devices and not just android so i have a proposition. List of devives at end. If someone can walk me through the complete process of rooting and installing custom roms and everything else step by step from beginning to end on one of my devices then i would offer one of the others up for trial purposes as long as whoever tries their very best not to brick it as warranty will be out the window of course. Almost all are still under warranty and most are rather expensive.
The at&t s7 edge is what i would like to root but may be better if i learn on something more practical and less expensive. I am pretty open EXCEPT the to s7's are off limits u til i am positive whoever may take me up on this knows exactly what they are doing. I really dont need any bricks as my house is wood and vinyl.
Here is what i have from cheapest up at least in what i see in them.
Digiland dl701q 4.4.2
Rca voyager pro model# rct6773w42b. 5.0.1

Samsung s7 edge sm-g935a 6.0.1
Samsung s7 active sm-g891a 6.0.1
An old htc1 somewhere
*iphone 6s
*ipad mini 2
As you can see i have a couple and always picking up others if i can get a deal on them. The s7's i think i want to wait on unless i can find some spares reasonably priced but just about any of the rest should be fair game depending. Like i said teach me, and experiment all at the same time. If there are more than one person/people that want to take me up on this then maybe we can work something out or ill just have to choose which to do. Endgame is to be able to without hesitation be confident enough to pick up any android and do whatever is possible with it, i mean isnt that what androids are all about?
