Android has grown on me, bigtime! - Android General

Last time I used Android was when I owned the HTC Desire and it was fresh. Then I went for the iPhone 4, Lumia 920 and now the Nexus 5. I'm amazed how smooth and responsive Android has become, everything is so fluid and the screen response time (screen ms?) is almost on par with the iPhones now.
Really happy I came back to Android finally, I couldnt be happier!

I like both I have an iphone 5c and nexus 5 both are great I'm just used to quick updates and a fast response by Apple when a bug arrives such as on 4.4.2 there's many bugs with the noise cancelation mic. And the lux meter sensor reads off scale being that is my third RMA 2 from google and 1 from LG it seems it's software and I'm going to have to wait till android 4.5 till who knows when?

I may not have been a user from the beginning like you, but I've been on Android since 2.3 Gingerbread. At the time, I was using webOS (which is a sad story). But they discontinued and I came to Android. I really didnt care for Gingerbread but when Ice Cream Sandwich came out, I started getting interested. The same person responsible for webOS was responsible for ICS so that helped. Since then, Android has grown into a beautiful and smooth OS. I dont get why people like iOS so much. Give it a year or two and Android will be dominating the mobile market.

Imagine if Android was in the hands of capable coders instead of Google. Apple would of been dead years ago.

I was an 100% android fanboy but after using iPhone forcible for 30days I can see iOS has simplicity and design. UI is just awesome even google apps looks better on ios compared to android though i still hate ios for its inherent inability to do basic actions like transferring files to friend, crappy itunes, no widgets, no pattern unlock lol and inability to select default browsers

Nexus "3"

According to rumors, the next nexus will not only not have an amoled screen but will be made by LG. Am I the only one disappointed?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Well dont you get it ?
HTC is far more expensive than Samsung which is far more expensive than LG.
Nothing feels like my old HD2 that was the most great cellphone ever. I might sell my nexus to go get an HD2 and stay with it until it rots.
Why do u really care abt something which doesnt even exist...?
Relax and have fun with ur nexus s and the samoled, while google and next manufacture comes out with another masterpiece in some unforseeable future.
Remember this, that gogle never said they are going to come out with any of pure google experience handset suntil they launched N1.
N1 saw some nice responce but wasnt doing so well but the noise in consumer market was asking google to come up with next iteration, they did and they saw a massive success, continued the legacy by extending the nexus family with NS.
Lets see what do they do for us in future...
Just my 2 cents!
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I believe that rumor is for Google and LG to be creating a "Nexus" tablet, not another phone just yet. The Nexus S just came out!
I will be very interested to see a Google tablet

Latest rumor actually is that Motorola might be building the Nexus 3.
A very reliable source said that Apple will have the new nexus *nexus 4GS* ;-) Let's stop speculating what the next nexus will be and enjoy what we have now.

This is indeed correct the likely choice of the next nexus mobile device line will be motorola due to the CEO of motorola showing up at the Nexus s launch and talking with google ceo etc. they have made a contract to be the next maker im pretty sure you could find the info online
Actually there are rumors of both companies making the Nexus 3 PHONE. And they are just that, rumors.
I actually know both the ceos of LG and Motorola and they said that Casio was producing the N3...
5 inch screen
super-duper amoled 28000×9334 resolution.
24mp camera
2ghz quad core processor
1Tb of ram
front facing 3d camera with sexual chocolate
...the rest of the specs sound a little ridiculous to me so i am not going to list them.
I am holding out for this one

For current Nexus S owners, what phone will be replacing it?

The Galaxy Nexus has come and gone but it didn't intrigue me enough to upgrade to. While the NS is still a great phone, the hardware is slowly becoming dated and it's inevitable that most of us will get a new phone eventually.
For those of you who still have an NS like me, are you eyeing any particular phones that you might switch over to in the near future?

Might switch to a Samsung Galaxy SIII whenever I get too tired of this. I can see it slowly fading away, being too slow for some things. With Jellybean it looks great but doesn't perform as well as it did with Gingerbread. We'll see whenever I'm too tired with it I guess!

Not really. They've timed it in the past, but it doesn't expressely mean a new version I believe.
Even then, Nexus One released with 2.1 Eclair, while Nexus S released with 2.3 Gingerbread. Not exactly a leap forward as big as Galaxy Nexus with Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.
The first Google device was still the G1, released in October 2008 with Android 1.6. Old school haha!

Yes, but some version were incremental updates rather than absolutely new OS. The names changed, but very little did in the background from Eclair to Froyo to Gingerbread, as I said. Nothing stops them from releasing 4.2 and calling it Key Lime Pie...

I replaced my my aging (plagued by search bug) white Nexus S (i9020a) with a Carrier (SaskTel) Galaxy Nexus... just got it today and was well worth the new contract.

in june '13 my contract will drop, at that time I will find a new one.. I'm actually falling in love with a sony nexus... but apart for manufacturer will be a nexus
nexus is the only way to go honestly. im eagerly awaiting the announcements for the new nexus phone's ... there is going to be multiple phones instead of just 1 phone from 1 company. so far im pretty sure samsung , sony & lg are all making a nexus type phone. if sony makes one , i probably would drool over it. i love the look of their current phones , and something with a fresh design factor as such with vanilla android on it would be gold from them.

its more than just porting. you need the framework for sense to work on the n5, and a kernel to support it. right now you have neither. its not a little work, its so much work that nobody in their right mind would spend the time on it, and for free!
trust me. the only people on this planet that want sense on their devices have already purchased a phone from HTC...the same company who lost 3 billion dollars last quarter.

go ahead. make sure that you get the framework working on a nexus 5 first, then develop a kernel to support sense. really, it would be cool if you do. i wouldnt use it, but some would. the issue is that it would take a mass amount of time and effort to do so, and not many are willing to be so dedicated to it.
I came from having had 3 HTC phones in the past. Evo 4g, evo 3d, and evo 4g LTE. All good phones. Sense wasn't terrible.
I can say though the only thing I miss was linked contacts. That rocked. Otherwise I'm totally happy with stock android and getting updates when they come out, not a year later or never.

Okay people. I'm closing in on a whole week with the n5. After being mugged for my htc one. The change to nexus was a bit sad. On paper the htc one is better in many ways. But in reality. I'm happier now. Here is why
Community
The nexus 5 is being show a lot of support. That alone s enough to take all the pain of getting ripped off away.
Clean slate.
The nexus 5 is nearly free of bulk. Its the pefect device to mod. Just unlock the boot loader. No Odin. No s off. No tegra recovery flashers.
But the most un talked about reason. Its not an android. Its the android. Directly from the mothership. Its like having the Jordan's that Jordan actually used! Not just ones designed for his fans. Its the tobacco from the Indians themselves!. Pizza from Italy!. An actual Mexican taco!. 1970s muscle!. Not today's! Its.. its.. Its Nexus 5!!!...
... That's as lame as it gets people. Thanx for all the help

now granted I had one of the very first ones and I think the camera issue has been improved but build quality wise the htc feels better in my opinion
