hey i am planning to get this phone.. but i am wondering
1) does the lag fix really solve the lag problem? or does it still occasionally lag? 2) what about the gps? is there a fix for it? 3) is it ok buying such an expensive phone which is ap set? is it really risky? |

QUOTE(benny888 @ Oct 11 2010, 07:19 PM) This is a SGS thread, most users will support you to buy ; all hoping for Froyo. Being a Android user ( Nexus, HD2 on Android, Galaxy S and Dell Streak ) these are my opinions, most probably will not be welcome by SGS owners: i was thinking of getting htc hd2 and run android.. however the said that its not as smooth as the original android phone is that true?1 : It improves the lagginess and does NOT solve the problem and yes it still lag ocassionally. I have tried both Voodo and OCLF 2 : GPS - in a word it sucks - the worst I have ever used . Even my HD2 on Android beats it flat. No need to do any special settings on HD2. Dont even compare it with Nexus, Dell Streaks - both these will blow it out of the water 3. Your decision as is your money. Its positives - great beautiful display unmatch - I'd say it is better than iPhone 4. Great video options. I have tried 2 Froyo roms ( all ibeta unofficial ) and I'd say brings some improvements but nothing amazing yet. The Quadrant score on the SGS is amazingly high - with lag fix I recorder 2150 versus figures of 1500 to 1700 for my other Androids but this figure is misleading as practically it fails miserably against the other phones I have Of all the Android phones I have used this is my personal rating on a scale of 10 as best : Nexus One - 10, HD2 on Android 9, Dell Streak 8.5 and sadly Galaxy S : 5 This is of course just based on my personal needs and do not reflect other users |

QUOTE(benny888 @ Oct 11 2010, 07:46 PM) I will not advised you to do so. Get a proper Android phone instead. This is only for enthusiasts who has a HD2 and is fedup with WM 6.5. UNless you are the type who like to experiment but there seem to be no reliable android phone now.. the htc desire have multitouch problem and the galaxy s with lag and gps problemThere are now about 20 Android roms on HD2 available. Each one has its own bugs and whether is acceptable to you depends on your needs. I'd say since after end August most of the roms had overcome the major issue of not so smooth scrolling. Infact my HD2 on Android ( past 6 roms I tested ) the scrolling beats the Galaxy S flat, very smooth comparable to my Nexus. You need a good SD card at least class 4 as the rom executes out from the SD card. so the only option is to wait for desire z but its quite long more |
