as i work with phones all day everyday, i was thinking about the ideas that apple have when it comes to phones etc.
like the taskbar that you can drag down to show things like weather appointments etc i would be good if we could pick out what we want to show on the taskbars like iphone has, ok maybe there is a app out but is it as fluid as apples... maybe maybe not.
another thing is i have found on my hunt is the way companys dont put the widgets etc on market. like kddi and docomo.
They were also good about keeping straight faces when they decided they owned horizontal speaker slots and black bezels on a rounded cornered rectangular device.

LOL and the the t-9 dailer of which they sued htc for and a physical home button
I have a weather widget in my notification bar. I like, it's spiffy.
Maybe I shouldn't speak too loudly though. Oh no! I think I hear Apple's lawyers coming!

and the method of sliding to unlock a phone, or viewing contacts by searching for them. or the many things they are now famous for that they had little to no part in creating, such as siri, Mac os x, facetime...

Come on guys they created the touch screen phone, where the first company to develop multi touch, created the mp3 player, introduced the reader feature to web browsing, introduced notifications to the lock screen, and forever changed messaging with iMessage
Ummmm I think Microsoft came out with the touch screen first... Everything apple came out with is just a minor tweak of somebody's invention... Innovator? pleeeaaaase lol

Had to cheat and google that one, hp made a touch screen computer in 1983 to.. same time as Apple made thier phone
However:
1960s
Historians consider the first touch screen to be a capacitive touch screen invented by E.A. Johnson at the Royal Radar Establishment, Malvern, UK, around 1965 - 1967. The inventor published a full description of touch screen technology for air traffic control in an article published in 1968.

Actually they weren't first with multitouch as mitsubishi had multitouch seven years before the iphone and the first mp3 player was actually invented by a german in the mid nineties so that's wrong but not sure about the other things you said they invented.

So its like a mirror reflective from the back camera to your face? Pretty clever I say.
They haven't release it yet they call it onemoreface, I think they are still in the state of building it maybe a few more months hopefully january and when they finally release it hopefully its compatible with G2.

I Hope this will get released soon and for a few different models other then the Nexus One in the picture, I will buy at least two one for my Nexus the other for the HTC Desire Z , but I got a funny feeling that by the time this rolls out it might be to late, within the next six months most smart phones will all have what Nokia has been doing for years, front face cameras, then this gadget will be to late.

The SAMSUNG MOBILE UNPACKED 2011 event will be held on October 18th in HongKong.
The device has a curved display similar to the Nexus S. Download the SAMSUNG MOBILE UNPACKED Application for more details
You see, several sources are now confirming Nexus Prime will most likely run a dual-core 1.5GHz TI OMAP 4460 CPU along with 1280 x 720 Super AMOLED display.
It is likely to have 4.6-inch screen with 320 ppi which looks beastly enough against iPhone 4S’ 3.5-inch 960 x 640 326-ppi retina display.
Have a look at the recent shots of the Nexus Prime

I would be surprised if Samsung didn't put their Exynos in it.
But either way that design is quite revolutionary for a cell phone. It looks so sick. And knowing it's from Samsung, the quality will br top notch.

Im with you.. I used to jump from HTC to another
HTC Pro -> HTC Hero - > HTC Google N1
and I wanted another HTC but at least in my 3G band frequency (850) the best option in the market was IMO the Galaxy S (at the time I got it) and now the Galaxy S2 which I have. Everything was perfect (except no flash on the S and slowness I didnt know existed until using a dual core cell) but I still missed and currently miss the HTC feel to the cell phones with their designs and metal body at least on the N1.
I cant wait for the Nexus Galaxy or is it Nexus Prime after all? Im gonna go from my S2 to that once the price is right

I have actually seen/handled a samsung phone running WP7.
Being the nerd I am, i checked it out, it was very very similar to iOS in the sense that it was "do this, do that" and offered barely ANY customization features, shocking right, a closed-source OS system which offers little to none in the field of customization???
Yepp @OP not sure if trolling, but impossible to get WP OS on any other phones then the phones it's native to.

No official ports that I have seen. However, if you like the look of WP7,
Get Launcher7 from the market. Spend the buck and get the donate version it is a lot better.
Then get WP7 Lock lite for the lockscreen.
Then WP7 notifications for the messaging.
And probably the WP7 Dialer
Once all that is loaded, it will look and act like WP7, except with all the advantages of android.
Ill let you the truth, even though its closed source, its possible to get a port...but news will travel fast and once Microsoft hears of it, they'll butt in and shut it down.

I love Googles playful nature. And I'm not sure if anyone has posted this yet, but here are some screen shots of the tabs menu in Chrome doing a little back flip quickly revealing the back side of the tab with the Chrome logo stamped in it. It was almost impossible getting the screen shots, because it doesn't do it every time, and when it does it's quick. I accidentally discovered it playing with the motion flick gesture that scrolls the tabs. I flung it forward pretty quick and saw it flip. But it also works by swiping with your finger.

I don't really see a difference... Isn't an Easter Egg something that has no purpose or function other than to be found by the user in an unconventional manner? Swiping up repeatedly at the end of your tab list is about as unconventional as taping the android version repeatedly. And all that happens is a quick, useless but fun animation showing off some branding. Sounds very similar to seeing a bunch of flying ICS droids or jelly beans. (I know you can play with the jelly beans, that's beside the point.)

Google makes Android. Google makes the full featured Internet browser called Browser. Google makes another full featured Internet browser called Chrome. Redundant. Don't get all technical with the exact details of the real definition of the word. I know Chrome integrates with all your devices and blah blah blah. It was just a joke.
Why does everyone always have to be RIGHT on these stupid forums? Xda is by far my favorite forum to use, but until Trolls and flamers are properly handled, they will forever piss me off.

I apologize as well for using you as my scape goat.
I know making assumptions about someone's inflection through type (is the proper word 'type' phasing out already? Is it all 'text' now?) is about the dumbest thing you can do when trying to carry on a lighthearted conversation.
(the following rant is not directed toward you) I just feel like the internet is a place you have to viciously fight tooth and nail with snide remarks and a rock solid asshole know-it-all attitude to boot just to get one shred of respect. You got thanked for making a joke at my expense, where I have yet to be thanked for taking my time to share a little fun with everyone. If these forums were held in real life, the ridiculously rude comments that follow would stay inside that evil little part of our brain where they came from in the first place. Where they belong. Again, I'm just blowing off steam in general. I apologize, I mean you no disrespect.

Yeah.... but he wasn't using a gs3 so I'm not sure where your going with that because I was just saying (btw I know our phone is old, come on now) the news about how ios6 has the new basic features of stock gb is very interesting.
I don't keep up with iPhone crap so when I see a good video or something like that I figure its worth sharing with others that might not keep up with "cutting edge apple features" lol

I think most apple users get the IPhone not for its features, but for it's "social" status.

Lmao Apple Idiots, I wouldn't buy a phone that can do basic stuff. I want a phone that can go above and beyond for me.
I didn't watch the whole video but I inferred that it was against android. So you can't really compare an old fascinate to iPhone 5.

I LOVE Armando's videos. Thanks so much for sharing this, it's one of the best videos he's done for a while.
If you have an hour to spare, go and watch his excellent Android vs. iOS series, it's extremely well done and great ammunition to use against Apple fanboys
There's a YouTube video by "Android Authority" that shows SGS3 vs. Iphone5 drop tests. Iphone wins without a fight. I commented there that it's obvious this one is on an Apple payrole.

No. It was showing how the "new" features in iOS 6 have been on Android for at least 2 years. Just goes to show you how "cutting edge" those iPhones are. I'd rather pay full price for a Samsung than give Apple $20 for an iDevice of any sort.

I think I'm partial to what Chris Pirillo mentioned about PC vs. Mac - The Truth, but in context to iphone vs. android. Just use what works.
Flaming each other because of what one has vs. what the other one has is silly.
My mom (rightfully) uses Windows and has an Android device. My Sister loves her iPhone.
I've been known to use both and all of the above.
I think these kinds of topics belong in the xda general forums and not in the device specific general forum, just because there is nothing here that is specific to sgs4g.
Just an opinion.

Not trying to start a flame party for apple, that was not the point of this thread.
Anyway like the title says, I have been trying to tell people for years that android is a much more fully feature rich os than io6 always has always will.
A lot of my friend jumped on the iPhone craze, and my usual answer to "hey check out what I can do now" is "wait you couldn't do that yet...wtf apple"
Just found it funny that's all
Btw Ive rocked an iphone, webos, android, a Ubuntu PC, and a windows for the hell of it.(can't afford a Mac) I like a little piece of all of them
And it seems like I can't post stuff in the right place.....ever lol or at least that's what they tell me, sorry all :beer:

What iphone doesn't have is freezes, reboots, force closes, volume issues, gps lock problems...Cant wait for contract to be up to get an iphone, I m done with samsung and t freaking mobile
No I disagree, I have an iPad 3 on ios6, when apps stop working, they just crash and exit to springboard, they don't tell you that the app isn't responding. My ipad has rebooted in the middle of a game, and yes, my volume was once full and audio wasn't working one time. I had to reboot.
GPS lock problems are notorious for galaxy s 1. It's not android or tmobs fault. Yes I agree that samsung is at times a pain in the butt and all the tmobile employees have gotten their brains removed are controlled by some remote in t-mobiles headquarters.
I am a big mac fan though.
I hate iphone
I love android
me = mac+android
it's a weird combination, but there are quite a few.
I feel like i'm on a leash in a 4x4x4 box when I use iOS.

Lol agreed. I don't know how many time I've dropped my SGS4G and still working. My brother ipod touch (basically iphone without calling features) took one drop and it was done for. Even my old samsung moment withstood the extreme, after spiderwebbing it that AMOLED screen continued to work like a champ.
I didn't initially want to contribute to a VS iPhone thread, but

The S3 have poor built quality, accept it. I own one I know, I had the SII, Note and Nexus as well. There are many complaints in the S3 section too, even with people who gets their screen broken while the phone is in their pocket. There are some design flaws of the phone that have no relation on how the user use the phone. Base on these iPhone 5 drop test I'm impressed with the built quality (but that's about the only good thing about the device): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2BxL0nRDlY&feature=plcp, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m669QDakJNg&feature=plcp

And form my own phone, what happened after you remove the back cover multiple times, I never had this problem on other phones because they have a stronger cover:

It still takes better pictures than my Vibrant. Wozniak said when he shown photos he taken to his friends, they prefer the S3 photos over the 4S. Both the S3 and iPhone 5 camera are Sony sensor, the difference is in the DSP and how each company are tune them. Regardless no matter how nice iPhone takes pictures, the camera app have nearly zero options making it useless to me.
