[q]Is infuse a galaxy s? - Samsung Infuse 4G

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.

I have 2 brand new Vibrant back covers if you're interested.

Just wondering..

I am going to be picking up an SGS2 for ATT but was curiouse about a few things.
1: How cross compatible is the SGH-I777 with other carriers SGS2's. I know there is a screen size difference but what else. Is the SGH-I727 more compatible or is it going to be another Infuse.
2: I would like some Pro's & Con's of both phones to compare.
I don't have LTE in my area and won't untill the eoy-12 so the LTE Radio isnt much a worrie for me currently.
Any input is welcome
The first thing is that the at&t skyrocket is a the best version of samsung galaxy S2 u can find. On the software front all the galaxy s2 are the same but the only difference is the hardware. For eg. The infuse is a single core device whereas the at&t skyrocket is a dual core device. In the whole there isn't much of a difference on the software side(Bloat is gonna be there) but the hardware is different. Ohh yeah the international galaxy s2 has hardware buttons whereas the at&t skyrocket and the infuse have capactive buttons. Hope I help and if so hit the thanks button.
Cheers

galaxy s2 or Skyrocket

What i mostly wanna know is about data seeds. Which ice is better, and pictures a are a must. Speedtest
I was on the same boat as you, an eventually decided to get the SG2 because of the reviews,faster processor, an the Custom ROM's.
This video can help you out, both phones are great an fast just Google this.
Samsung Galaxy S II vs. Skyrocket – Smartphone Smackdown! (Video)
i bought samsung galaxy s2 skyrocket and i returned it and got sgs2 only because of the pictures.. For me I think the picture quality in sgs2 is way better than skyrocket its more crisp and not pixilated.. oh by the way another reason is its hard to text in one hand on skyrocket.
Skyrocket the best!!!!!
They are generally the same phone but the skyrocket is at&t's version of the Samsung Galaxy S II

Ok, this is like the 4th thread you commented on and you clearly don't know what you are talking about. The Skyrocket is not AT&Ts version of the SGSII. That would be the I777. The Skyrocket is the LTE version of the SGSII which coincidentally is the same phone (hardware wise) as the T-mobile hercules. OP, if you live in an area that supports LTE, get the skyrocket...if not, get the regular SGSII.

Not really, T-Mobile's GSII is lacking the LTE bits of the Skyrocket (which makes both not the same hardware-wise), which is AT&T's version for the SGSII LTE.

Actually the LTE Radio is tucked away in there. Devs are working on the radio situation with that phone. They are the exact same phone. Same body, same guts, different branding. They can flash each others ROM's and radios, but they havent figured out a way to unlock the LTE radio inside of the hercules.

hi there. I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 and would like to Root my device. I downloaded the DXKL3 insecure and original file. I would like to know if it will work as mine is I900DXKF4? it is the closest i could find to my Kernel.
Please advise

Agree, galaxy SII . hands down
definitely Samsung Galaxy S2 for me, way superior

Please read before posting official ICS releases regarding the Galaxy SII

Please take at a moment to read through this before making an announcement about an ICS release. We are seeing a lot of redundant posts and questions being asked.
Our phone, the Samsung Galaxy SII Skyrocket(SGH-I727) is scheduled to receive the official release. There has been much confusion and for lack of a better term, ignorance, of what is being released and when by the user. We all want to contribute something to the forum and that is great. That kind of eagerness is usually welcomed in a developmental forum such as this.
Samsung can not make one release and it be compatible with all Galaxy SII phones. There are different kernels, processors, chipsets, and other factors that come into play. When a release this big comes out. There is usually a lot of testing that goes into it. We have to wait for Google, Samsung, and AT&T to put their stamp of approval on it.
There have been several news articles that have given an ETA for this release. Thats an ESTIMATED time of arrival. It is not wrote in stone. There maybe and will be unforeseen setbacks in projects this massive. We, as a skyrocket community, are in line for the update. But where is our place in line? With some and checking some of the articles, which may not always be entirely accurate, we are still behind some of the Samsung EU variants to receive this update. So we still have a ways to go.
So please,be patient. Help our devs, who build some of the best roms. You can do your part by letting them know if any problems arise within the rom. We have received leaked builds of ICS thanks to DesignGears. Samsung has not forgotten about the skyrocket. Once we do get an official release, it will be a matter of hours before the custom releases begin.
Below I am listing some of the variants of Galaxy SII community.
Galaxy S II GT-I9100G
Galaxy R (GT-I9103)
Galaxy W (Galaxy S II Mini)
Galaxy S II LTE and Galaxy S II HD LTE
Galaxy S II GT-I9100P
Sprint's Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch (SPH-D710)
T-Mobile's Galaxy S II (SGH-T989)
AT&T's Galaxy S II (SGH-I777)
AT&T's Galaxy S II: Skyrocket (SGH-I727)
AT&T's Samsung Captivate Glide (SGH-I927)
U.S. Cellular's Samsung Galaxy S II (SCH-R760)
Japanese model (NTT DoCoMo)
SK Telecom's Galaxy S II (SHW-M250S)
KT's Galaxy S II (SHW-M250K)
Rogers' Galaxy S II LTE (SGH-i727R)
Bell's Galaxy S II (GT-I9100M)
Telus' 4G Galaxy S II X (SGH-T989D)
GT-I9100T
So you can see that there are a lot phones that are in the Galaxy SII family. Next time when you read the article about the release, please check the actual nomenclature of the phone, and scan the tags down at the bottom. See if SGH-I727 or something similar along those lines is mentioned.
If you would something mentioned, added, or deleted. Let me know. I pulled the list of variants from a wiki page. It may or may not be accurate.
This is a list of North American variants, of phones and tablets that have started to receive or will be receive in the coming future. The top list under Available have started the official update. The list coming soon is self explanatory.

Good luck with this. Its a good idea, but the reason all the Noobs keep multiple posting about the different ICS releases is because they failed to read or use the search function in the first place. The same way they will fail to read this post before posting about ICS, or BLN, or Kernel Source, or "which ROM is the best", or etc...etc...etc...
Can you edit your post and make the title in all bold and then ask for it to stickied?
Maybe even flashing red text... or some kinda siren when you type "ICS" or "OTA" while making a new thread...
I'm hoping that a bulk of the noobs will read and stop the posts.
Omg! Skyrocket ICS out today!1!11!!!
My best friend's cousin sister's butcher who used to go to school with my boss' cousin's minister who buys pork products from the butcher was talking to the bus driver who brings my kid's to school when they saw his teacher who is dating a guy who's father works with a guy at the mechanic who knows a guy who works with Samsung.
And anyway! It's totally awesome! ICS 6.2.1 RAWKS! Dude, it's got a telepathic UI that knows what you want to do just by reading your mind! That, and an advanced "Bull**** Technomometer Alpha GUI" which uses biometric skin temperature measurements to determine you're full of crap!
Dude, and the live wallpapers are awesome! They feature CCTV feeds from the Kremlin and Area 51! Touch the screen and the people actually feel it! WHOAAA!

This is a great idea, but I don't think it will stop people from making the 500 ZOMG OTA UPDATE ICS BWAAAAA posts like dumb asses. Reason being.......a lot of people 20 and under are lazy, not really their fault, because of how easy our society makes things for them with the internet. Unfortunately they don't know to look. You also have the people who ask questions, get burned, then get upset with the "You don't have to be an ass wah wah wah instead of stopping and saying to themselves......yeah I am a dumb ass because the exact same post is 4 posts down and I should have seen that but because I want everything YESTERDAY I didn't see it. Lastly, the people who grasp only basic elementary English.
But good luck, I hope I'm proven wrong
Well I didn't expect this to be a rant thread.

Hahah yea seriously people. Drop the pessimism and just get this post stickied. There's no need to share your thoughts on whether or not it will work. Just let it be an informative OP that hopefully some new users will see. Thanks for posting by the way!
I would like to list which variants have the official update already. And which ones that will probably not receive it all. So any help with this is much appreciated.

I believe the phone that you highlighted in red is the SGH-i727R, which is a rogers phone. But that is according to Samsung Canada. Or the international version I9210.

Not necessarily disagreeing with the gist of your post, but bear in mind some of the developers here and elsewhere are 20 something and under.

uk users of captivate?

i'm in the uk had mine shipped over from the states, already rooted running cyanogen mod and miui.
i can honestly say i luv it!
its funny trying to explain to uk's what an awesome phone it is when they havent heard of it!
anyone else in the uk got one?
also was the samsung vibrant only a US release also.
Yes. Captivate(Att), Vibrant (Tmo), Fascinate (vzw), and i can't remember the name of the Spring variant are all U.S. Variants of the I9000 (international) Galaxy S.
Sprint = Epic 4G
But the Captivate had/has the best Devs/ Themers and forum community......though I may be a lil bias in my opinion.
