(FIX) for users that need a better camera - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have found a fix for those in need of a better camera......
Go buy a camera. This is a phone. Do your research before you go and drop hundreds on a smartphone. Make sure you know the hardware your buying.

This post probably sounded better in your head, no?

Take battery out will be sticker with all info

Lol! I thought you were asking a different question...
Pop open the back cover and have a look around behind the battery.
edit: waaay too slow
About phone then look at baseband. The letter after 9020 will tell you. Also if you get 3G speeds on one or the other will be a big clue.

After you remove the battery. There should be a sticker where the battery would go. At the very top it should say the model number. GT-i9020X

I just checked, my phone says "Model: GT-i9020" no letter.

The only thing better than our phone is the screen.... a lot of ppl say its really laggy the att version at least. We will see

Note is nice but I personally think its too big. I see it more of a business phone, not personal at all.
Yea it is big but my boss has the att one and its really nice and we all know T-Mobile is faster so who knows might have different specs just thought it was cool that we might be getting one

I had the note briefly and LOVED it, returned it cause there wasnt a stable modem/radio for us Tmo users...if this is true, im 100% back!!
Yay?

I still haven't had time to play with a Note yet, but its intriguing to say the least. It definitely looks a bit too large to use as an everyday phone but I'll give it a shot at least
You probably will be happier with the s3, it will be the next Gen phone.
Get the note if you need a tablet phone or high Res screen for more icons on the app drawer or something. I'm gonna wait for the s3 just because of the flagship and the proper balance of features and size and weight
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
If it comes to Tmo hopefully its the same but with an s4 processor
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2
I'm really really really hope it's the Note! But, my next upgraded phone will be a toss up from the sgs3 or the note!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2
My uncle has the international version so I've had the opportunity to work on this device here and there. Using it daily really doesn't wind up feeling a ton bigger than the t989, only problems I've experienced are certain apps can't figure out if it's a tablet or a phone, so there's a fair amount of compatibility issues, but it's very slick.
But, and a big but, that phone is a Gen behind the s3

[Q] How much does Minfreemanager help multitasking?

So I have read several places using minfreemanager helps with HOX multitask issues somewhat. My question is to what extent? Can you say use web browser, answer a text, then come back to same spot? What about same thing with gaming, streaming music in background and using gps? I really really love this phone, AMAZING display and build design. I am even willing to deal with the 10gb HD, but I stream music, read ebooks and use GPS alot. I just left sprint and want this phone sooo bad. Any input or personal experience on the matter will be appreciated and +1'd thanks!
A lot of people looking, must be.wondering the same thing...

Well lots of people don't read the Q and A section and I wanted advice/testimony from a good amount of people. If you have a problem with it you can always simply leave my thread(s) or create your own forums and tell people what to do in them. Plus two is nice because someone always seems to come along a derail a thread...

Multitasking st of the active People here read both, the mods will just lock/delete/merge the thread anyways.
All I was trying to say is that having two threads with identical topics isn't necessary you noticed before u ported how this one had nothing useful but your other thread does?

Thanks for the heads up. Anyways..how's your multitasking after.flashing roms?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Cleanrom with the multitasking mod definitely helps a lot, but it's still not perfect. You can run more apps than stock, but some apps still reload after a certain period of inactivity. Without source, I think that's the best we have for now.

So you think its something that can be fixed with source? That's good then because I can wait.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
cleanRom with multitasking gives you 4 or 5 apps running at the same time..so thats pretty sufficient for me..anyway..you can also use aokp or aosp Rom based so that you can enjoy multutasking as it was suppose to be

I think what most people on XDA have taken exception to is HTC's complete disregard for GPL compliance. Locked bootloaders and partial source code (if any) abound. It's not that the devs don't like a challenge, it's just that they take offense to a company going out of their way to block them and completely disregard the law.

Don't count on it lol. Google is about the bottom line until I see it with my own eye I have my reservations about moto.

I want the S4 simply because I've basically had every Galaxy made by samsung. I had to sell my S3 but I loved the way it felt, and from the reviews I've heard of the S4, it feels even better so going off of that and all of the cool features it has I want it!
s4
I say go for the s4 its more high tech HTC one is not quality brand
The HTC One phone looks cool, HTC Sense looks good.
S4 , looks wise is similar to S3

with recent court rulings about patents not worth as much as they initially thought, I would imagine Google is ready to cut their losses on this one
The one's build quality is too premium to pass and the s4's features seem more like gimmicks

Build quality issues?

I've been reading that there may be some build quality issues, with the N5.
One issue is the screen is prone to breaking after a slight drop?
Any comments here regarding this?
Thanks all.

Take these post with a grain of salt
Things break when you drop them, don't drop it.
I feel like there are a hundred threads asking this question.
Agree most phones will have a cracked screen if dropped.. Depends whether you are willing to get a case or if u like the N5 naked.

The screen is glass, and it behaves accordingly.

It's gorilla glass 3. If it breaks, almost any other phone would have broken as well. I really wouldn't worry about the build quality. It's pretty impressive.
People have to stop making these threads. There is already a 100+ page long thread called "Nexus 5 Defects".
