[Q] Thinking of getting Infuse 4G at carrier switch - Samsung Infuse 4G

So I'll be switching from T-Mo to AT&T and I'm looking into the infuse 4G from the Samsung galaxy s 4g as one of the possibilities. I'm wondering is it worth it to keep my 16GB micro sd card (which has a lot of my music, pics, vids, docs, etc.) that's in my sgs4g along with the 16GB internal memory on the infuse, or would it be best if I just keep the 2GB that comes with the infuse and use the allotted 16GB that comes on the phone for all my music, pics, vids, docs, etc? Thanks in advance for your help in this.

The stuff already on the internal 16gb card in the infuse drops it down to like 13 gigs of useful space. And why not have both the internal and your 16 gig external? Seems like a no brainer to me.

Not sure about your money situations but to get the Infuse now is more like a sidegrade/downgrade. There are better phones like the sgs2 or the shyrocket HD which releases soon. I am up for a new phone & playing the waiting game for Q2 sgs3!

At the moment money is kinda playing a factor in my decision and I honestly want the Galaxy Note more than anything. But the infuse is kinda on the list of what I'm looking into among the others you've mentioned. Thx

I understand. I see the Infuse at Walmart of all places like $49.99 or less. The SGS2 is $99.00, BestBuy or Target also take trade-ins for your old phone.

No. The Samsung Infuse is a nice phone and all but it's last year's phone. Why would you sign a two year contract for old tech that will not recieve an ICS update when you can get a SGSII or Skyrocket that will come with Gingerbread and eventually get ICS?

Not a very great argument; I signed a contract on the Infuse expecting GB, look how that turned out.

We're going to get Gingerbread soon. There's been no leaks in some time so the devs suspect they're on the final build. The phone came out May/June of 2011... less than a year ago. You're going to get Gingerbread within your two year contract.
I can guarantee Samsung will NEVER release ICS for the Infuse whereas the Galaxy S II and Skyrocket will within the current two year cycle.

Switching to the Skyrocket?

Is anyone switching to the Skyrocket? It comes out tomorrow. I really like my Infuse but there is an update on one of my lines and my mom broke the screen on her phone. So I am thinking about giving her my Infuse and upgrading to the Skyrocket.
In your predicament, personally, I would do it
I'm getting the skyrocket but keeping my infuse.

A beast that in many ways is slower than the 1.2GHz dual core in the real sgs2 which has a ton of development since it is an international phone unlike all this north America carrier specific junk we have to deal with.
Ok so its still a beast and probably highly overclockable, I have to wonder about features like mhl though, the att sgs2 that's already out doesn't come with the adapter, will the sky rocket? I guess the infuse needs a selling point with all these super phones coming out.
I'm still thinking of between the Vivid and Skyrocket, probably Skyrocket though.
I'm not going to do the same thing I did on my Vibrant, and be an early adopter, I'm going to wait a week or 2 to see what development is like, but I truly only want root, and I can wait for everything else.
EDIT: YES! I just looked on the AT&T website, and my area is one that the SGS II (original) wasn't sold, so the Skyrocket is $149.99, and the Vivid is $99.99 for me..
Guess I'll be getting one of the 2. xD
Naw, its a SnapDragon.
Just flashed my phone from MIUI back to stock, ready with the box and everything to go switch out my infuse first thing tomorrow for the Skyrocket!

Upgrade to Sgs Skyrocket or stay with infuse?!

I'm on the fence! I barley became elgible for an upgrade. I was going to go with an iphone 4S and just sell it however the Skyrocket seems tempting. The specs seem only slightly better than my infuse. However my infuse has been buggy lately. Should I stay with the infuse and sell my upgrade? Or should I splurge for the skyrocket? I'm currently in an area that doesn't yet have LTE so AT&T will give it to me for $149

No point if you don't even have LTE. Wait for a native ICS phone.

Agreed... If you're looking for development, I'd stick with the SGS2. I think the Skyrocket is going to have limited development and the LTE could cause issues like it has on Verizon with development. Just my own two cents. Or hold out for the Galaxy Nexus.
No issues here. I'm currently running both phones. Skyrocket does everything my infuse does only faster, and the battery last me almost twice as long. Side by side screen is same size, but skyrocket has shorter housing which to me makes the phone feel a tad bit smaller in hand.

the infuse dev will never be what it will be on th sgs2 varients especially not the i9100 or i777 but i think one thing holding up the infuse is that we expexted a quick 2.3 upgrade so froyo development stopped. i mean in janurary samsung advertied the infuse a a gb device. then we got rogers rom but it didnt satisafy everyone. i was gonna start up a rom on froyo and then we got some leaks. but now we dont have source code froyo doesnt look appealing and the gb leaks are dropping so fast nobody is interested in working with them.
i think there will be 1 or 2 decent roms once att says it's ok to drop a new firmware version but from the leaks id have to say samsung isn't ready. i foresee the same situations that happened on the captivate. come december we'll all bring up the add showing the 11 or so devices promised gb by the end of the year (like samsung promised froyo for the galaxy s varients on twitter in the us but att missed that deadline) and att will simply say "we had problems" which is all rediculous because it looks like samsung only started woring on the update 2 months ago, which probably has more to do with att not showing interest in an update than anything else.
Granted, I don't believe the Skyrocket will be getting ICS in a timely manner because AT&T truly sucks in the upgrade department...but I doubt it will be abandoned like the Infuse was. Any phone that can run ICS will be somewhat coveted.
The Infuse became outdated and forgotten because it was one of the last single cores made. There are always going to be people who want the bigger display. I personally hated the size of the S2. I can never go back to a smaller screen again. The think the Skyrocket will hold it's own with the "size matters" crowd. It looks like a great phone and nearly everyone who has one is loving it.
I was at att the other day upgrading gf line to the HTC vivid, I noticed the infuse was off all displays and all the cases and such were locked in a drawer. The rep also told me that LTE won't be up here in Maine until next upgrade, lol, although its launched in Mass. She also informed me that I can early upgrade any of my 3 lines for a diduction of $200 off retail ($450) ill wait another month or 2 than upgrade my line, ill only lose a few months while my 3rd line upgrades next may. Also, my infuse as been super buggy as of late, I'm now getting strange bubble popping sounds with volume off and with out touching anything, this is my 3rd infuse.

Nexus is here....

I just saw it at the Verizon store.. they can't sell it till tomorrow.
I held it in my hand.. very weird with the curve.. will be great with the ladies..
Will go back in the morning and put it to the test next to my SR..
From what I can tell the only thing good about the phone is ICS..
*EDIT*... Okay.. went out eariler and saw this "wonder phone"... I brought my sr to compare..
People.. this Nexus is nothing.. feels cheap, and feels smaller then the SR.. I can't tell the difference in the screen except mine looks better.... ICS is the only selling point on this phone.. Could I feel a 'difference" well. stock to stock yes. But with different launchers.. etc.. I can't tell my phone from the Nexus..
If you want to pay $300 for a sub par phone with ICS by all means go ahead... I'm keeping the SR.

I was really considering buying one of the gsm versions then I did some research and found out about the galaxy s2 hd lte which is pretty much the same phone but without ice cream sandwich, but I keep comparing and found the deal breaker, the galaxy nexus does not have micro sd slot which is a android first for me. Sounds like some apple maddness, plus I got a 64gb microsd so that just docent work for me. But hey to each his own
Verizon did a poor job at releasing that phone.
I thought the nexus was going to come out around November so I waited.
My Moto atrix screen was cracked and I couldn't wait any longer. I don't regret buying the Samsung skyrocket best phone I owned so far....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Im tempted due to ICS but in the end it isn't worth switching to Verizon and paying money for a phone that really isn't any better just for ICS .
I had Verizon and the service was subpar. AT&T works amazingly for me with speeds. After owning an iPhone I don't want another phone without an SD slot.
ICS will be available soon enough on our SR.

Galaxy Note...Are you switching?

Just curious how many of us out there are going to move on to the galaxy note. I'm still in my 30 days with skyrocket and trying to make the decision to return it and go back to my old phone until the note comes out. I love the skyrocket but I switched to it for bigger display and LTE and the note accomplishes that even further. Soooo what do you all think?

Mr ed,
Were you on LTE when you tested it? How was the reception on LTE? I wonder if it is any thicker than the International version? I may sell my skyrocket and get the ATT version to go with my International GNote if the battery life and reception etc all review out well. I will wait a month or so after the launch to make sure I see all the reviews before moving forward.
Once you get used to the GNote, the skyrocket does not cut it for resolution and features.
Yeah after only two hours with it my skyrocket seems so wimpy

Ill be switching. Ive had something warm for the Note since its release but couldn't justify buying an unlocked unwarrentied phone (I party too much) My skyrocket has performed amazingly and it seems from the numbers the Note will too. I had an ATT sgs2 and then the skyrocket and I couldn't notice any difference in the processors. Ill have the ATT Note on launch day and Im sure Ill love it.
Hmm... according to red in another thread, AT&T is getting the GNexus.
I seriously hope that's true, so I'll wait a month or 2 (also gives the Note time to mature, and get some dev going, I don't like being an early adopter.)
Sorry if that came across that way...they are NOT getting it

Well then.... ****.
I can get the International GNexus, or AT&T GNote... this will be one tough choice.
I'd love to switch, but just got the combo Skyrocket + Galaxy Tab 8.9. I suppose I can't return just the Skyrocket now. The 30 day return window should be up by next week.
My only option should be selling the skyrocket on ebay. How much are they going for anyway?
Aww man the G Note, i am really wanting one but the screen size is giving me second thoughts. Maybe if i see one in person i would probably have a better decision. If not the G Note i may just hold out for the skyrocket HD with 4.65 screen it could be the perfect size for me.
Mmmm Note is very attractive but I'm going to wait the price get lower....can't wait

Any skyrocket devs going to the note? It would be nice to have some guys familiar with the hardware cooking for this monster. Im hoping that there just has to be some recompiling done to the skyrocket roms to accomadate the larger hd screen. I would guess the faux kernel would work since it says it works with pretty much all GB sammys. I almost which sammy sprung the release on us like they did with the skyrocket lol this wait is killing me

Thinking of getting one

Hi guys i just have a chance to get an infuse but i am still thinking about so i decided to ask for opinions in the best place there is related to android phones: xda.
So what can you tell me about ics and jelly bean? is the battery good or it sucks taking into account it will not have a new battery but a used one for about a year.
Any help will be really appreciated!!!
thx guys
I don't have the infuse any more but ICS was great on it. Battery would last me all day with 3 hours of screen time with usually 30%+ to spare when I went to bed. The only thing I didn't like about my infuse was the crappy gps. Would drop signal constantly and it would often take a while. The strange thing is that gps apps would take forever to acquire a signal but if I closed the navigation app and loaded gps test I'd get a signal within 5 seconds.
Infuse is awesome GPS is not crappy anymore that has been resolved. So if u can get it do.
The devs here are light years ahead of samsung itself.

If the phone works properly and you are paying a fair price, don't see how you could go wrong - you can buy another battery at some point.
Many great roms by extraordinary developers plus support from lots and lots of helpful, knowledgeable users.

If the phone works properly and you are paying a fair price, don't see how you could go wrong - you can buy another battery at some point.
Many great roms by extraordinary developers plus support from lots and lots of helpful, knowledgeable users.

I'm actually changing my gtab 10.1 for the phone plus a little cash. What do you think??

There will be those who diagree with me and I understand why- for me I would be tempted to do it as I have a 10 inch Acer A500 that spends almost all it's time in the case- I use my laptop or my phone and am very pleased with my Infuse. Several have left the Infuse for SGS3 - I have an SGS3 and still enjoy using the Infuse about 25% of the time. As long as you are ok not having the 10in. screen, I hope you make the decision that you are happiest with.

i would do the change with you but you are a little far :laugh:
yep, infuse is a great phone, i sold it for an htc...well lets just say i bought another infuse cause the htc vivid just didnt satisfy me the way the infuse does
You have countless roms to try...so if your a flashaholic...you’ll be in heaven
Tons of helpful people, a friendly community (with the exception of a troll or two every other month...)
i don’t know about other people...but i consider everyone in the infuse section like "family"...not literally but like a little forum family, like a no man left behind kinda group
moral of the story...unless you can get an sgs3 get the infuse!
Hey mg how bout lending a family member a few bucks lol....

Thanks for the opinion man and nop can´t get a sgs3 not by a chance at least at the moment so i will go for the infuse then.
The tab is to big for me and there is almost no development oh and the people on the forum is not really "good" if you get what i mean.
So wish me luck with the change so i can join you here
Good luck

If your doing it on a new 2 year contract. I'd say no. You could get something better. Like a HTC one x for $50, Refurbished Galaxy Note $50, sgs3 for $139. I'm waiting for Gnote 2 but if they want over $200 for it I may go with Gnote. Samsung Unpack starts today!
ICS and Jellybean seem to be working awesome here by the way. At least for me.

Bah!! When did the developers make the gps worth a damn? I sold it when I bought my s3.
Zeus 6 ROM had great GPS. And its snappy. I've used it on my vacations. Infuse isn't a bad phone but I'm thinking of upgrading to the Note 1. I think its a good decision coming from an Infuse. Half a gig ram more 1.5 ghz dual core a larger screen , longer battery life. Samsung adding jelly and butter. Also it'll get some of the Note 2 features sounds like a good investment for $50 bucks.

i havent looked to see if still available, but i got my infuse online with AT&T, refurbishd for 1 penny.
i would do that and keep your other stuff too.
came from I(blow)phone and dont ever look back.

But you would need an upgrade to get the penny deal...and I don't think he's using an upgrade...

The Note is for $50 at At&t web only deal refurbished with new contract. I originally wanted the Note 2 but I don't want to wait another 3 or more months to get it. I think they have a refurbed S2 for $39 too..not sure. If your thinking about it get before its banned. Its on Apples hit list.

I have an iPhone 4 now but I had the infuse and it was pretty awesome coming from a Mytouch 4g but I wouldn't get on contract with it...At all.
The battery life isn't that great, neither is gps and video chatting.
I've heard there's better android phones on the market if android is what you're looking for, searching around is best to make sure you buy a phone that's 100% you.
Check out the skyrocket too my ex boyfriend had one of those basically the same as the infuse but the think the battery life is better.
