My Galaxy Nexus showed up yesterday so I will be moving over there now. It's been great with all of you. I bought this phone off of GOOGLE play website and am very happy with it so far. I'm hoping to find a buyer for my glacier soon cause it's still such a nice phone and would hate for it to just end up in a drawer.

Hey man how much was your Gnexus? $400?
Also, the Galaxy is actually easier to root and stuff, its just the flasghing part that's a bit more annoying... IMHO

Yeah I paid 399 for it. Easy to root and unlock. Flashing rom from cwm recovery just like you can on glacier. Already rooted it and running AOKP rom with franco kernel.

I'm running the exact same setup as you. Franco kernel is bomb isn't it? Sounds are nice and the screen even looks better than it already is. Did you get Franco's kernel app control?

Any idea what price you would set the glacier at for sale? I know this isn't the marketplace but I'm curious because I have family members who paid $190 a month ago... but I paid $175 for mine a year ago.... what's a fair market price assuming normal wear/tear

If I had the money to get a new phone right now, I'd sell mine for $125 or just give it to my youngest bro. It still looks new too.

Yeah, I'm planning to just ride this phone out until the end of the contract (late December). Development is still surprisingly strong, I don't play any graphically intensive games, and the phone never fails me for anything.
My family on my contract wants to switch so I have to keep this phone until two years from June 2011 (someone bought an sgs)
God.

Psh, I can't upgrade for like another 10 months. I want a Gnex, so I might try to get one this summer since I'll be working. I might even try to get a weekend job for that extra $$$.

Is it worth buying the phone now ? i have a low budget because i am only going to use the money from selling my Atrix 4G which annoys me a lot XD
Is the phone fast ? are there any lags or bugs ?
and is there any Cm9/10 finished ?

If you can get one for cheap I definitely recommend it. To me, the CM9 builds we have are all complete besides those minor little niggles like TV out. Our ICS is freaking fast!!! But all of this would not be possible without jt1134 and bhundven. Man I love those guys lol. Anyways, yes its worth it
If you have the chance to get something better then definitely do it. This phone is better than nothing but I can't wait to get some cash and upgrade

Hi Nathan
Please review my signature links and PM me for further questions.
I put my goal to make SGS4G have all the possibilities SGS i9000 has in terms of full Hebrew UI.
I think SGS 4G is an amazing device for its price and is still very much rocking. SheYihYe BeHatzLaCha anyway.

Uh, you have to be more specific. What do you want to do with the tablet? Are you an Apple person, or an Android person? 7'? 8.9"? 10"?
you can try the galaxy note tablet
I'm looking for an android tablet. Either a 7" or 10". I was looking between the galaxy tabs 2 both in 7" and 10". Kinda read mixed reviews.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
I would YouTube galaxy2 tab vs galaxy note and use spec difference. My personal opinion the note would be my choice because galaxy tab can be hassle with fc even in basic stock. But you gotta find the difference there
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
I have a tab 2 10.1. It hasn't had any fc or problems. It also doesn't have very much dev support. It runs well for me, it's rooted, and I use it for watching movies and surfing the web.
Look into the note tablet and the nexus 7. Those are better tablets as far as specs go. They probably also have more dev support. Up to you though, the tab 2 works just fine for me.

Just got myself a nexus 7. Can't give a review or anything as I haven't even unboxed it yet. Personally, I wanted the nexus 10 but its just not in my budget right now. Little brother has an account through newegg so settled for that. Same price as it is through the play store too.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda
I've had a nexus 7 for a few months now. I love it. The constant android os updates are a huge plus for me. There's pretty good dev support, too. For the price, I'm shocked at how much I like it.
There are a few bugs with the screen. Some users report a horizontal line of burnt pixels developing, and other users report blurry edges. My nexus 7 developed the horizontal line last week. I made a three minute phone call and a new nexus 7 arrived two days later. Not bad at all. I've read the screen issues have been fixed as of now.
Oh, it's also easy as heck to root and maintain. Rooting took me less than 10 minutes from start to finish.
Edit:
It depends if u really want a similar experience as the skyrocket. I imagine the Samsung tablets may be a good pick. I found the uber clean stock Android 4.2 system on the N7 was simple enough for me to bounce and forth between the skyrocket and not go bald or blind from stress.

I love Android! Had hero-evo-photon-3d-evo lte-s3 and now I'm getting kind of bored with it..
Considered WP but no apps is a major no no. And well I've been considering iPhone 5 until s4 comes out or next big android.
Is this normal?! Please help me!

There are tons of new phones out that are great as well as many new ones always around the corner, just take the plunge and pick one that suits your needs and has a good ongoing development. Good luck my friend.

Ah ok, hows that going so far? I can imagine everything "just works" as they say, lol
I mean yeah it works but so does android... First off I love iTunes! It's so cool plugging in phone at night and it automatically copies itself, the iPhone 5 is just so insanely fluid and fast! Camera is same as my Evo lte. Overall it's just nice having something that never stutters, no missing pics of kids due to lag, or anything like that. Idk just want something new until android is completely fluid.
I hear ya, hopefully the next version is smooth

Neither. Go for a nexus phone. Nexus s/galaxy nexus/nexus 4.
Bought Galaxy Nexus a year ago for the same purpose, worked like a charm for me. I would suggest to go with Nexus too. There are very popular and hacker friendly.
Strictly for hacking/dev-ing, the Nexus 4/Galaxy Nexus. For hacking/dev-ing while retaining a lot of common features (removable battery, expandable storage), Galaxy S3 or Note 2.
Thats right. Nexus is best :thumbup:

I think the Galaxy Nexus/Nexus 4 is the best choice, because you get always the newest updates.
When ubuntu phone is released, you can also develop for ubuntu phone.

i would also rather go for a nexus device instead of the 2 other devices, there are plenty of documentations and drivers for them and you can also run ubuntu on it. perfect for hacking around.
The google phones are the path of least resistance for hacking. They make things easier than 3rd parties who don't care about users who want to unlock or root their phones.
