porting desire s/incredibile s

can? yeah yeah yeah yeah

while an actual thread about porting the desire s/incredibile s would belong in the develpment section, this thread does not. it should be moved to Q&A. considering there is absolutely nothing related to anything going on in the thread. there isnt even a real question here, just "can".

Huh? You're talking about 3 phones here but you only mentioned two.
And the NS offers so many more things, the NFC is relatively new technology so its not much right now.

Software wise? NS runs Stock Android whereas the Vibrant runs on TouchWiz and runs on a RFS filesystem which heavily relies on Voodoo/OCLF lag fixes.
There's a huge difference. Also CM7 supports the Nexus S.

Ya, my Vibrant does more and looks better doing it, my Nexus is minutely faster. My Nexus relies on Voodoo for the screen colors. So your relies on argument is kind of not a problem at all, since the mod is out. Now when and if the Nexus gets 720p video recording then it will be brought up to standard and that point will be negated as well.

How does the Nexus S rely on Voodoo? It doesn't need Voodoo to fully function properly. I can care less about Voodoo Color, Voodoo Sound? Don't even use it as my media player so it has no affect on me. 2.3.3 Colors are simply fine.
The Vibrant relying on lagfixes requires it to disable lagfixes and re-enable to flash new ROMs depending on what ROM. That roughly takes about 3-5 minutes to disable/reenable the lagfix.
Video recording? I honestly don't even use it. A phone can only do so much, it's not a superpower device. If I'm going to record something, I'll use a video recorder. That's just how I feel, people will try and argue about this but whatever. I prefer dedicated devices for video recording / photos.
Photos and videos with a phone are just for casual things.
Oh yeah. Have fun being on a outdated Android version. When Gingerbread comes out. All Vibrant ROMs will be based off internal leaks with a closed-source kernel. That should be pretty fun. By the time the Vibrant gets the official Gingerbread, we'll have Ice Cream.
@epsix: haha alright. go back to your MT4G forum
People will always find something to complain about. Sorry but the Nexus S pros outweigh the flaws. If you don't like the phone, then stop trying to bash a phone. It's immature.

If your on a vibrant, then why are you wasting your time in the Nexus forums? Go troll on the vibrant forums and tell someone who cares about how you use 720p recording to watch yourself

From Vision to Sensation: First thoughts.

Hey fellas. This is for people who are thinking about getting a sensation. If you don't care about this phone.. DON'T READ. Thanks.
Well I just got my sensation about an hour ago from walmart. I'm really digging this phone. The screen is huge, the colors are fantastic and its lighter. TOO light for my liking honestly. Feels like I'm holding a vibrant. I hate the fact its so light. It feels fake to me kinda. I love the way the g2 feels. Its not light, but its not chunky and heavy.
The build quality is pretty good. It feels FANTASTIC in the hand but I still don't like the lightassedness this phone has. I still prefer the battery door latch that our vision has but its not hard at all to get the back off.
Speed: not even going to lie. Its fast. Pretty damn fast. But compared to our vision is what you guys want to know. And having them side by side having the sensation obviously stock and my vision obviously not (oc'd to 1.2 gigs) I don't honestly see a difference.. at all. Probably after root gets here and a little oc hits this then we will see.
If anyone wants to know anything ie want me to run tests against it etc just let me know. Just for reassurance : THIS IS JUST FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE DEBATING ABOUT GETTING THIS PHONE AND WANTED TO KNOW SOMEONES OPINION. I love reading people's opinions on phones and I always come here to read people opinions on their experience with the phone I want. Just wanted to give back my opinion. Maybe it might help someone, maybe it won't.

To me honestly I LOVE this screen. very nice and responsive (unlike my vision sometimes sadly) and the colors are better. i am a little biased sure (ive been waiting for a 4.3 inch screen for a while) but the big factor for me at least is that the pyramid is visible outside. i think its a really big step up.

How are data speeds? I know it's a 14.4 device, but a newer radio may be better optimized - also -how is the reception? Battery?
Have you had a chance to use HTC watch yet?
I have a G2 currently and love it, I really like the look of the Sensation though..

4G is insanely slow right now honestly. i think its because the device isnt even released by tmobile yet so im not making it a biggie right now. when its working though, its extremely quick, especially on wifi. and there is virtually no lag whatsoever anywhere especially when using the device. and it gets faster over time. havent used htc watch though yet im sorry. cant make any calls on the battery life. this is still my first run through of the battery.

Will keep a watch on this thread, I don't really have many questions just wanted to thank you for the review

Looks like it has the Sense keyboard to me. The gingerbread keyboard is black right?
I am also coming from a G2. I love this phone in every aspect. However, I do find myself switching back to the G2 every now and then simply because it has root and a trackpad for scrolling long articles. Thats probably the only thing I miss. A trackpad, never realized how much easier it made things. Would you all happen to know of an app that givesu a thumb scroll in every app like the music app has? I have no idea why htc, or google (whoever's fault it is) chose not to integrate this feature all around.

Well,not here to ask questions as I already bought the Galaxy S II(was between that and the Sensation),but I can tell you some things for sure.
Sometimes,you're gonna miss that extra RAM that HTC for some reason didn't give this phone.768mb on the Sensation with Sense 3 is as pure stupid as the good camera with no flash on the Galaxy S.Second is that,although the Adreno 220 is REALLY good and is bound to get even better with root and,obviously,overclocking,it isn't really the beast that'll handle the qHD screen with ease,especially when scrolling through screens.
For the rest,I still think that it's a hell of a good phone,just not quite the upgrade from my Desire HD.Not comparing or fanboyin' or anything(ALL my smartphones until now were HTC after all),but just HTC could have made it better.I kinda like the Evo 3D though...

I haven't seen any lag on the sensation at all.are you referring to the sense launcher when you say scrolling through screens? Cuz with that, there is no lag either. I knew there was less ram when I bought it and I thought I might end up regretting it but I honestly haven't seen any reason to and this is just stock. I can only imagine afterwards. I don't think I will overclock like I did my g2. 1, for the sake of the battery, and I don't see how the speed could really improve much

Well,take my word with a pinch of salt as I don't have a Sensation.But on my Desire HD with Sense 3 rom(768mb of RAM too),RAM is always less than 200mb free.No lagging there too,but after some use and some 100 apps installed,I think it would show.

i currently have a vision
but im dying either for the sensation or the evo 3d, do any of you hapen to know if theres gonna be a 850mhz version of one of these 2 beauties?

. Just because 100 apps are installed, doesn't necessarily mean they are all eating ram. I do however understand what you are saying. I guess only time will show as I've only had it for two and a half weeks now. I think that extra core will kick in then. From my knowledge, the sg2 has a processor where both cores are on at all times where as the sensation's cores can run independently of each other. I think that will lead to better battery optimization. Maybe the lag, if any one experiences any, is when that second core is kicking in. I haven't had this happen to me, but to comment on the topic in case anyone is switching, my advice would be to absolutely grab that sensation. But keep your g2 if you can cause it was indeed a great successor to the first ever android.

Should I trade my G2x for Nexus S?

I've got a couple offers for my G2x trading for a Nexus S
Should i do it?
I need upgrade-ability and customization
I've heard people say the G2x will never get
Loss: Single core, VGA front facing cam, 5MP front cam.
Win: Almost guaranteed upgrade to IceCreamSandwich, Faster Update supportm NFC, Super AMOLED, Curved Glass, Louder Speaker than G2x, more stable
What would you choose?
Do you think the G2x will get ICS? (Cyanogenmod may not be able to make ICS, due to the fact that honeycomb is not open source and Google said that ICS will look like ICS.)

What? Google has confirmed that ICS will be fully open source at I/O 2011 just like Gingerbread, so the CM team will most probably support it. Otherwise, I'd stick with the G2x for the better specs, and the screen IMO is fine. It's only a little bit worse than Super AMOLED.

Glass is not curved.

In my experience the G2x screen is WAY better than any other phone I have ever used at one important thing... it is easy to view in direct sunlight. Better blacks and rich colors are great when you're huddled in the dark, but there are times when I want to go out and see both the world and my cellphone screen at the same time. The G2x is the best I have ever used in this regard.
As for the trade... i'd be tempted, but I'm sort of a path of least resistance kind of guy. I'd probably stick with what I know. I have been burned in the past with phones that have issues that don't show up right away while you are testing with your own SIM, so be careful. (Of course that advice would be even more prudent for the potential G2x recipient to follow!)
In the end I think it's whatever works best for you now, and the G2x has killer support right here in river city. I wouldn't worry too much about future proofyness, the future is seriously uncertain as it is.

I'm going to trade. Samsung tends to be better at making phones. They've made much more than LG. Also, my phones a lil bit knicked up. The one I'm getting is new. As long as the phone I'm getting doesn't lag like my Droid on gingerbread I think I'm fine to take the deal

Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

The only reason I would swap is because it is guaranteed that I will get ICS other than that I wouldn't swap it.
G2x is superior in every other way, and if we happened to get ICS through Cyanogen we will be already superior in every aspect against the Nexus S.
The only reasonable thing for me to do is to get the new Nexus if cyanogen doesn't update our phone to ICS.

Don't compare my phone to a third world piece of junk assult rifle. If the G2x were truly a weapon, it would be something more like a PS90 or a Magpul Masada.

Dont mean to start a flame-war but, I also heard Samsung does better jobs with their RMA/Warranty than LG. It's just what i've heard.

Nexus s owns the g2x not by hardware stats but by shear support, longevity and dedicated updates for issues from Google directly. No carrier or manufacturer issues to deal with. That's a win win.

Put it this way, Nexus S is a prettier Vibrant 4G, without 4G, a SD card slot, and NFC Support. I loved the Vibrant 4G and wanted the Nexus S from my dad. I tested the G2x at T-Mobile, bought it, and don't regret it one bit. Samsung make better devices than LG, but Stock Gingerbread with an amazing launcher(extreamly fast launching) and dual core with an amazing battery, I wont leave G2x. If anything, trade for a Samsung galaxy S 2, from what I heard, best phone ever and looks like it too

I currently own in the house a g2x, nexus s, mytouch 4g, sensation and a firefly for the kiddo...with all the issues from the g2xs ive ran through its almost worth using the firefly....on a serious note the nexus s had a few let downs for what should have been a flagship phone when it arrived, though its been THE most reliable. They could have pushed more features into it. That being said...Ill use the sensation now until the prime arrives. No more screwing with carrier/manufacturer updates F THAT NOISE!

The G2x haters are still hanging around this forum. They must be closet g2x lovers. You have the sensation which is basically eye candy otherwise it really sucks. And I dare one of you to get a better quadrant score on the nexus s with its "single" core than my g2x. I can tell you I got a low 2900 on my g2x compared to a nexus s at 1850. Not even close. The nexus is a nice fone but you can't put it up against a g2x. And as far as the g2x being ugly, you're off again. Its a good looking fone maybe not as good as nexus s but I have a ton of roms that I could put on my fone that would put the nexus to shame.

[Q] Who is still using G2x?

This is interesting after I sold MT4 and black X10i but I didn't sell G2x because nobody wants it.
Recently I rotated from NS to G2x, and out of curiosity to find custom ROM (I don't want 2G/4G on top bar, so stock ROM isn't an option).
I found Eagleblood 2.4 (2.3.7 AOSP based) is the best for my taste. After installed, nearly 5000 ogg audio files are recognized without much problem*.
I am glad I still keep my G2x and found a nearly right ROM to make it supposed to be.

I find it a little funny that g2x's aren't very popular and don't fetch a high price but perform better than many other devices available and are loaded with options.

I'll probably end up on a Galaxy Nexus but sadly I think the performance will be about the same. I think with graphic acceleration the G2x will be a beast running ICS.

I bought my G2x for $150us. With CM7 (hopefully soon to be 9) this phone rocks. I came from a Nexus S on Sprint and was totally bummed that the GSM Nexus S would not get 4G on T-Mobile and settled for the G2x. With the exception of the screen I never missed the Nexus S.

Just brought this for $200, couldn't believe these were so low, had to buy one since I sold my MyTouch4G for $200.
I'm going to use this side by side with my Sensation, about to pop my sim in this bad boy and see what it could do!

I loved my G2x, but then nexus fever hit and I absolutely had to have it Very proud of the switch, as there is really no comparison (at least for me).
But, I am looking to sell the G2x and don't expect to get more than $200, which is sad because I sold my G2 for $300 to upgrade to the G2x

I picked my G2X up for 200 bucks and running weapon with faux 123 kernel I beat my buddys tmobile sgs2 in every test (yes, even in real world use smoothness) except internet speeds.
My problem with the galaxy nexus is the thing is to downright huge! Come on, 4.6 inch screen! I think the sgs2 is too big at 4.5 (the main reason I didn't get one).
Thats right samsung, there are still people out there that want a top of the line phone in 4 inches, why have you seem to of forgotten us!?!

I just pick my G2X for 190.00 I always wanted one but it seem no one would come up off of one. I'm pleased with it however I can't seem to get it rooted I have read almost every damn forum there is.

coming from an iphone 4 im so happy with this phone over all, i just wish the screen had been a bit bigger 4.2 or had a button (i love the buttons iphone - galaxy s i9000 ) anyways im quite pleased with this phone does everything, nice camera not like what people say that its horrible and stuff like that ... this phone is a beast running weapon g2x, picked it up for free on winds super smart promotional plan ... the only downsides i see to this phone compared to my iphone 4
- battery life is a bit weak
-keyboard doesnt feel right when typing... ive tried the ics keyboard thats in the market but its still a bit buggy with multi touch swype is very good love it.
i wish we had more developers to make more custom roms like the i9000 has (had it before but died because of the internal SD card issue )

A lot of the issues it had at launch killed its rep but I think it's a great phone. I had very few problems before I rooted and even less after the upgrade to GB and then rooting it. With the dual core processor and the promise of ICS down the road being able to better utilize the dual core I think it's fairly future-proof, a phone that will perform well even if you keep it til end of contract.

The first few iPhone 4s had tons of hardware issues,
First dual core phone and people don't expect a few bugs, common now...
LGs part on the software. How are you going to release a dual core on froyo.really? ??- epic fail -

Smart Keyboard Pro has been the best and my favorite keyboard app for years.
Give it a shot!

Sensation 4g vs G2x

So I side purchased a HTC sensation to compare wit our G2x and I have to say the G2x is not even comparable with it. The games run so horrible laggy on the sensation and the screen is so unclear compared to IPS display. The only good thing is the camera and even so it still performs horribly in dark places compared to the great flash and focus of the G2x. Here is where Tegra's chip making is superior and I noticed everything from battery life to app loading, multi tasking and even ICS performance was better even if the Sensation has leaked official firmware. So props to all the devs that have made our G2x comparable to such phones as the HTC Sensation and more.

I traded it for a HTC Wildfire S because of its condition but I'm kind of regretting it :/ Its a good phone but I'm to accustomed to my G2x power.

Briefly. Owned a MT4G for a long time before I traded it for this G2x, and loved it. Can't imagine the Sensation being any worse.

Did you root the sensation and flash custom roms and launcher? Give us some more details on the testing you did. Lotta factors go in to determining a good comparison, processor, UI, battery etc...

Yes, full s-off & ran various gingerbread systems including sense, stock, aosp, and miui. But to be fair, since I'm running CM9 on my G2x I loaded Android Revolution ICS Sense 3.6 and even alpha Sense 4.0 to compare ICS functionality. Through out 2 weeks I tested battery life and that's how I came to the conclusion that the G2x is overall better. Their is way more devs on the sensation but because of the size most of each ROM or mod is very unsupported unlike our community where we have a few but very dedicated devs with amazing rom's.

i owned a evo 3d which is very similar and its not a bad phone. you guys have better dev support honestly.
I dont play games.......so i cant say anything about that
The G2X does have a better display i feel, the hi rez evo 3d one was ehhhh.....
i do miss the larger screen just a little bit but not too much. for me...(abq, nm) I finally get 4g ish speeds. usually 3-5 mbits down everywhere in my city.

I have both also. I am selling my sensation because the screen is crap compared to the G2X.

I love the qHD rez of the Sensation, but after playing with them for around 15 minutes, I liked the G2X more. The screen is brighter, clearer, I like the aesthetics of it, and the 1.3 mp FFC compared to the VGA on the Sensation. The Sensation was thinner I think, but also a bit slower. Not sure if this had to do with Sense running the whole time or the Snapdragon CPU being crap. It has 768 MBs of RAM compared to our 512, so I thought it would handle multitasking better.

I really wanted the sensation because I do like the look of the HTC devices. Now I want an Amaze but I am very content with the G2x. May pick one up to play around with at some point.

At one point of time I swore by HTC device. After exploring around with different manufacturers ie Samsung, LG etc. I'm not so thrilled by their lower hi class devices such as the Sensation, Evo 3D etc.
I have had my share of ppcs, androids and etc. I adore the performance of my G2x and tegra 2.

+1 I've owned HTC, Samsung and LG devices and I would put HTC's hardware as dead last out of the bunch. I use a co-worker's Sensation pretty often and there is no comparison between the two devices. The camera, the lone redeeming quality of the Sensation, takes pictures that look good on the device, but terrible once you view them in full size on a tablet or computer. I was tempted to get a Sensation when I bought the G2X because it had a fully functional ICS ROM (albeit one that is a Sense ROM with Sense stripped instead of AOSP). I'm glad I chose the G2X. The Sensation is not a bad phone, just not a great one either.

Heck yeah.. That's very close to my experience also. I'm very glad I choose the G2X too.
When i was shopping around for a T-Mobile device I was looking to go back to a up to date sense device. I read that HTC is going to slim down on sense on future device so it doesn't tax the ram as much as it do.
