I was just wondering looking at this video, I seems to me that if drop like zero velocity and let it free fall from your hands the S2 will not shatter..
But like in some cases, the glass shatter due to somebody knocking his hands and then he released letting the phone travel a longer distance with a initial velocity will shatter the screen..

DROPTEST S2

NON-G....

I suggest if you want to root or unroot you use Super One Click, it's easy and efficient..
Btw, I followed this video and to me its the best one out there, easy to follow with clear demonstrations ...
He also shows you how to flash CWM recovery..
Hope it helps..

guys, i have a problem with the music player (stock) on S2.
When it play songs, there is a slight pause or break during any songs played. It pause/break for split seconds few times in any songs played

Any idea, what is wrong?
*
Sometimes there is an error in the mp3 songs you've downloaded.
I've experienced it before, other than that, it's smooth all the way..

Simple, ask her to trade in her G model and buy the non-G model...
Problem solved, and she will love the S2 like there is no other smartphone in the world.

Atmos kernel 2.2 has no vibration, Dev took it out because it saves battery life, sad.gif Back to 2.1 for me!

Superrom dev doesn't have a G version anymore so cannot update, but he is back in the scene now!

I know built in got the thethering, but some said this one is more superior than the built in one..

Huh? I have been using the Galaxy Wonder for about a month already, but no problems, and I got to say, it's "Wonder" ful....

But sometimes, this are called luck, depends on the device which was assembled in the factory, robots are not 100% perfect..
But what we do not know maybe its the user that is at fault, anyhow, it's consumer's rights, and Samsung is smart to refund, if not situation will boil and defamatory kicks in just like KFC....

head to head comparison
(my own 2cents, multiple by 25 then it will be 50cents  icon_idea.gif )
1. in terms of comfortable on hand:
GalNex>SGSII>GalNote (all naked)

2. in terms of screen attractiveness:
GalNote>SGSII>GalNex (if u din go compare the pixel shits, SGSII's screen will give u a fake impression.

3. in terms of camera quality:
GalNote>SGSII>GalNex. however zero lag shutters and the modded Camera ICS that can enable silent shutter makes it my favourite, if u get wat i mean  brows.gif 

4. in terms of transition animation smoothness:
GalNote>SGSII>GalNex. seriously wtf is wrong with GalNex's transition animation?

5. browsing experience: (all using stock browser)
GalNote>GalNex>SGSII. well bigger is better, and the reason GalNex is edging over SGSII is because ICS's browser is better than GB's.

6. ergonomy of use:
GalNex>SGSII>GalNote. my palm too small  doh.gif

7. gaming:
GalNote>SGSII=GalNex. GalNex wins in terms of compatibility, but dun have samsung appstore or games hub make me so sad  cry.gif

8. battery life:
this one no need compare. GalNote wins it all. but standby power preserving i can say GalNex is better than SGSII. but when on actual usage i feel that SGSII can last longer compare to GalNex  hmm.gif

9. navigation
GalNex wins like hell. while using GalNote i need to wait around 10 secs for gps to trace my location, but on GalNex its like almost instant. SGSII? :yaoming's face:

10. storage
this one no need compare la, GalNex is not in the same league to play.

11. connectivity
GalNote>SGSII>GalNex
while NFC is not widely used yet and i'm too lazy to dig out my BH505 from the hell packs of boxes, GalNex's wifi direct pissed me off. the function is there, but cannot initiate nor get connected. i dun noe wat's going on but seems like everyone is having the same issue. btw tried connect my GalNote with MHL+HDMI and play asphalt 6 on my home's toshiba 42", works like charm  brows.gif

conclusion: GalNote really stands out. SGSII and GalNex dun have much diff. both have their pros n cons. only when SGSII got the official ICS and GalNex's ICS version is stabled then oni can compare again. but once u tried GalNote on ur hand, u'll nvr head back for smaller screens.
feel free to challange my conclusion, afterall usage pattern and preference is different from one to another.

Navigation for all the phones are fast, if you use 3G, I used 3G on S2, and within 1 second the maps appears already.. Superfast..


QUOTE(ellimist @ Feb 16 2012, 10:46 AM)
Hmm same feeling in terms of difference, but I don't prefer either screen. Both are ok for me tongue.gif
Nice summary dude smile.gif

Wanted to get Note, but so far the units I've played with (stock) aren't as smooth/fast as S2, probably because of the larger screen/higher pixel count?

Not sure what your experience is currently though with new firmware etc. The units I've played with are at Samsung Gardens, Pyramid and a friend's unit (not very savvy, so not rooted or updated or whatever I suppose)
*
I have to agree with you, when I first bought Note, without any apps installed, I used and I noticed quite a decent amount of lag when scrolling left and right, I feel it's because of the large screen, actually when I was scouting for the non-G, I went to ask a shop, the owner ask me, why are you looking for non-G, I replied coz G version lag and hang, then he ask me to get Note, I say also lag, and then he was speechless.. But it's the truth..

There's nothing extraordinary with the blardy ICS ~LOL~
You can close app in GNex by swipe it away but in SGSII on GB, it's much easier by using Task Manager.
One touch can close all active apps :-P

Wow, you also bought from bebeq??
Your's is white or black??

Wow, from benny's blog, nexus can get 6900 Antutu Benchmark, at only 1.3Ghz??
That is insane..
Way better than the S2...

S2 drop into a pail of water, how to rectify?
*
First, pick it back up from the pail of water, then see if it's working, here time matters, then switch off the phone, take out battery, then dry the internal parts inside out with a piece of towel or lots of tissue paper..
If cannot work, than based on intuition, sent to SSC if everything else fails..

Is it completely dead? Try putting into a bucket of rice to absorb all the water.

I don't think it's a good idea, just wasting a bucket of rice for nothing..

Good idea if you are going swimming..
But if using it everyday usage, it's not practical because it's so bulky and cumbersome..
It's better to make sure that the phone don't drop in the water rather than using it everyday..
Just a thought..

Correct me if i am wrong, but normally from what I've heard the European countries have slightly better performance compared to Asian countries, of course excluding Korean Samsung.. Although both are non-G, but the European ones are slightly better, I heard this from a European guy ( biggrin.gif biggrin.gif )

I've experimented so many live wallpapers in the past month..
And I've concluded based on preference that one of the best live wallpapers have to go to the koi live wallpaper..
It's stunning, never get board, interactive, and just marvelous..
