Should I trade my inspire 4g for a Nexus s - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Always wanted a nexus s when they can out have a inspire 4g right now but had a offer for a Nexus s so what would be best? If anyone has both and could tell me what one is better and why that would help thanks

They look pretty similar, here's the spec sheets for both though if you haven't seen them yet. Looks like your Inspire has more RAM but Nexus has a way bigger hard drive. I've had my NS for a few weeks now and I'm happy with it despite it being two years old. There are some great roms for it too, HTC was a let down for me on the development side. Plus it's just a sexy looking phone I would make the trade if the condition is similar on the two but that's just me, I'll take pure android over Sense any day.

Yeah I think the ns looks way better over the inspire but the inspire is running 4.2 nicely how is the NS at 4.2

The 4.2 roms I've tried are great, very little lag if any with the right kernel. I think the drop in ram will be your biggest issue though, may not be quite as smooth as yours.

I got my Nexus S 2 months ago and I don't regret buying it. If there are a right developers, device will be never dead.
P.S. It has such a small quadrant's results, but i don't belive in **** like benchmarks. MC4 works awesome, even better than on 2.3 or 4.0/4.1.

The develpoment section is better for the Nexus, the sexyness is undoutible asswell, just turn the screen of on it and look! (Nexus looks more modern do you see how new devices tend to have round corners?)...if you are not certan on the other owner's phone do not traid but if the device is ok, do it in a heartbeat!

I like Sense, it doesn't give me bad performance, and it looks nice.
Please go somewhere else where people want to hear your bull****.
A sense ROM would probably be a refreshing change from the currently overloaded AOSP based ROMs (not complaining).
Mainly one that's based on sense 3.0. I've seen sense 3.0 ROMs in the desire forums and they look really good. It would be nice to see one for the Nexus.

Ok well I came from an E3D to get a nexus sense 3.0 isn't all its cracked up to be its just ok... a couple visual enhancements and it runs a little smoother than sense 2.1 stick with aosp or Miui it brings much more to the table

not saying it isnt. i love my nexus s. im glad i chose this over the arc. i was origanally going to get the arc on contract but then found out they has the nexus s in stock and asked for this one. i een chose this over the galaxy s2 as this is part owend by google and we should be the first to get the update if i am right. but still to trade the E3D for a nexus s is to me a little bit silly if you ask me. the E3D is an amazing phone and HTC are very good at making a fast reliable deice. Same as Samsung and LG.
I knew I would get flamed like I said on other posts

I pre ordered the evo 3d when I had my Nexus, simply put, some people like the nexus and some like the evo. And they are working on a sense 3.0 rom for the 4G atm. Though sense 3.o uses a lot of ram, I don't know how well it will work for the nexus. My girls inc2 ran sense 3.0 well but it was hella buggy...

I actually like their builds .
I just got my lady the Infuse4g and it seems like a nice phone, but too light for me. I like my inspire a bit too much.
Looks nice....
Love the Inspire 4g, but am ready for a upgrade without too much change. Make sense?
I've heard that the 4.7" HTC Runnymede (only name I've heard so far) could possibly be making its way to AT&T after being released in Europe for a few months first. Kinda like the same thing they did with the DesireHD before the Inspire came to the U.S.A.
The sensation xl looks awesome but only single core. But thats probably still heaps of cpu grunt

My thoughts exactly
I just want an HTC phone with build quality like the Inspire, HD resolution, dual core and a decent sized battery. I love the specs on the Galaxy Nexus but I will never buy another Samsung product.
I heard a while back about an "Inspire HD". I think it was on Android Central. I've never seen anything else about it, though.

any devs going to the Amaze 4g?

so im finally making the switch to a duel core phone, and decided to go with the HTC amaze 4g. i like samsung but there phones seem so flimsy to me, touchwiz is awful and m experience with the galaxy s was a weird one. anyways...i was just wondering if any of our favorite devs are moving/planning on moving or deving on the amaze. I have loved the development on this phone and have grown fond of the work of certain devs, (faux123, team royal, and TDJ). after seeing that tdj moved to the SGS2, it almost made me want to throw my amaze on craigslist, although i saw Faux wich made me happy ha. anyways i hope i see development on that phone as good as the mt4g was/has been.

Not true. For the amaze you don't need s-off. All you need is an unlocked bootloader. I bought my girl the amaze because her mt4g broke. Unfortunately it came s-on (some people will be lucky enough and have s-off already when when receiving their amaze) so the same week I bought her the phone, I unlocked the bootloader. Its almost the same as s-off. I was able to grant her permroot and she can even flash custom roms and kernels. I already debloated her amaze and added a custom battery, tether and have setcpu running on it to get better battery life.
At this moment I'm researching on which custom rom is best for her so I can flash.
So if you lurk the amaze forum you'll see they have a few selection on custom roms, kernels and mods.

where'd you buy yours and how much? Just wondering cause I don't think phones are worth half a grand.
Just got the amaze today.basically a larger mytouch4g.Although it has a higher screen resolution,there isn't that great a difference from the mytouch.the camera is better no doubt.actually,its quite good for a camera.build is solid,yet remains light to the touch.
Sense 3.0 is so much smoother than any sense rom.
its abeautiful phone.
Recently got and unlocked a Sammy infuse.it has a nice Tom selection,which are high quality roms (Zeus) thanks dman,my daughter loves it.
I thought I'd prefer the amaze,but provably should have tried the sgs2.
Amaze is very good though!
Edit:yeah,that extra tenth of an inch on the Samsung phones makes a difference.atleast with the Zeus rom ,the infuse is kickass and so much smoother than any mytouch rom. Yet I made my choice.
Not dissatisfied,but miss that butter from the Sammy.

I had the sensation and upgraded to the one s but still like to flash roms with the sensation for fun and the sensation seems so laggy compared to the one s. The performance and battery life of the one s is amazing. I defiantly recommend getting the one s just be sure you get the s4 chip.

try AOKP Jelly Bean (the link is in my sig) i love this rom and it's as close to aosp jelly bean as i've seen so far (not including cm10 because it is not fully functional)
Are you from Europe or America? In Europe you'll probably get the S3 Version even if it's from T-Mobile.
I'm okey with this phone, I can't complain about anything except the missing update support for the S3 device (I have one and can't do anything about it) and the missing custom ROM support.
I got the phone yesterday evening and it came with the s4 chip (im in the u.s.).
Rooted it an hour later.
Im loving it compares to the sensation.
Only problem I have right now is the backlights on the buttons won't turn on sometimes I reseted ny phone before rooting it and that did the trick. But now its back at it

Considered selling your HOX for a Nexus 4?

Well, have you? I have. I know I can get at least $325 for it if not the full $350.
I feel like it's a bit of a downgrade but I'd like other opinions. (vanilla is looking pretty nice with JB so distant still)
OK. What's the major difference, honestly?

Vanilla android. Which is a big difference over stock. I have a Nexus 7 and I love the UI.
More battery and more RAM.

Cm10 is pretty close to vanilla. If that's your only reason for switching then so be it. I have one reason why I won't switch. And once that is remedied I'm going to nexus permanently.

Not that performance is not already enough on the ONE X but doesn't the Nexus 4 have a quad core S4 and a significantly more powerful GPU. This makes it about twice as fast as the HOX already and it has a bigger battery and vanilla android and will get the newest Android OS'.
My biggest concern is storage size at 8GB or 16GB isn't much and it just doesn't look as nice as the white HOX.
The fact that it's made by LG turns me off. The HOX is awesome in its own right and I think Sense is great in terms of usability. HTC has come a very long way with refining Sense into what it is now (remember Sense 2.0 and 2.1? *shudder*).
I've had the Tegra 3 version of the HOX, sure the 'benchmarks' said it was better, but in actual usage, the dual-core S3 spanked it. On top of that, LTE! Only time I will ever get a Nexus device is if it is from HTC though.
I'm buying one, but I'm not selling my HOX.

I'm not comfortable using CM10 unless by now it's finished or much more stable. Do you recommend it?

I can recommend it. Been runny nightly builds for about 2 months now, never had any major problems (the occasional reboot or something) but everything works great.
I considered switching, but like the verge review pointed out, the lack of LTE is a hard thing to drop. Stock 4.2 would be really nice, but I bet it'll be available soon (either AOKP or CM10) and I'll just keep my superfast LTE.
No.
Please stop these alternate phone threads.

The fact that it's made by LG turns me off.

Me too. LG phones feel and look cheap. They've gotten better recently, but still not up to par with HTC or even Samsung. I'd be interested in a new Nexus phone, but not from LG.
Weren't they talking at one point about 4 or more Nexus devices coming out by years end?
now that i have had a chance to red some reviews i think im going to pass on this
but im going to stick with my HOX and see what comes out in the new year

Well, have you? I have. I know I can get at least $325 for it if not the full $350.
I feel like it's a bit of a downgrade but I'd like other opinions. (vanilla is looking pretty nice with JB so distant still)

Thought about it, but I couldn't live without LTE. HSPA+ in San Diego is a laughable joke. A lot of times I can't even stream music when I am driving.

which reviews dissuaded you? they all seem to only harp on the lack of LTE but to be honest, I don't get LTE where I live anyway.
