Android Central is meh, they're more towards the Android community who doesn't fully maximize their phones in terms of development. No offense to Android Central.
In my opinion, Android Police == Android And Me > Phandroid > Android Central

Personal preference. Everyone likes their own scene. The Androidcentral guys are pretty cool.
They placed it second because it "lacks UI flair" lololol

Anyone need a GNEX?
Luckely it's US only, but why?! Especially about lacking UI, imo stock ICS overrules moto-blur in every way.

Not to mention they're the first ones to jump and blame customers and defend verizon and other carriers when the pull bull****.
I've stopped visiting them after their article on CarrierIQ. Their "blame the consumer" attitude can go take a hike.
And the Razr as phone of the year? Man, that's hilarious. It's not even verizon's second best phone right now.

OMG..now how am i going to dump my Nxs....
If you are happy with your phone, whether it's a Razr or a Nexus or an iPhone or something else, why do you need someone else to validate you by saying your phone is the best? There's enough room in the world for people to have differing opinions without everyone but you being wrong. Instead of arguing about which phone is the best, better go argue about who has a bigger banana.

If you jailbreak you get Cydia, a store for jailbreak-specific apps.
They don't get the Android Market.

I honestly dont think so. IF this is true then the reason this can be done is because Android is "open source". Apple's iOS is NOT open source so there would be all kinds of licensing issues and knowing Apple... they would sue EVERYONE for even THINKING about doing it... LOL...
GOD I HATE APPLE!!!
Not possible. Whatsoever. Apple is closed source. Sure a cydia theme can replicate the android market, but that's about the extent.

That link is Android running on an iPhone. Android is open source, so yes I'm sure that's possible, but that's not what I said...
I said you'll never run iOS on an Android device. Because iOS is closed source.
Even though Verizon has somehow managed to get their head out of....long enough to submit binaries and drivers to AOSP, Sprint has so far refused to do so for their version of the Galaxy Nexus.
What this means is that it will be harder for our awesome devs here to build custom roms from source. So if you enjoy custom roms on your Sprint G-Nex, hit them up and leave a message asking for the drivers and binaries to be submitted.

Honestly I am not as worried as I was, I mean we had jelly bean port off a port the day after and everything is functioning. So I am sure we will have our custom Jelly Bean Roms with as many mods as we did fully functional. After all we do have a nexus device which even though its a lot of hard work it will always have all features working thanks to are many awesome developers.
Didnt crespo4g offically become an aosp device recently as sprint gave the drivers? Im sure sprint will do the same again soon
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Its not gonna happen per Jean Baptist quero the toroplus is not gonna be supported in aosp however that does not mean custom roms cannot happen as I and I'm sure others are working on the device tree and a rom also but unless odds turn the toroplus since it is a Samsung device rather than Google will not be supported in aosp
The reason for this is because CDMA is not an open platform. GSM is, which is why there are GSM hacks and cellular sniffers and etc.
CDMA is not open sourced and there is proprietary information that cannot be made public for the world to see. This is exactly the same situation on Verizon.
So Google cannot FULLY make the phones compatible with AOSP but that doesn't stop the devs from grabbing the source, slapping in the required APKs, and building a rom. The Verizon edition has never had any timing issues with releasing the latest and greatest roms. In fact we've had 4.0.4 and 4.1 faster then the other models.
It isn't about the model rather then how many devs are using that model and/or willing to port/create roms for it.
I would like everyone who is interested in seeing an official build of Jellybean for the GNex sooner rather than later to ask them what the hold-up is on all of their social media. If we can pressure them nicely using a public forum, then we might see it before 2013. Just a thought.

Or maybe they aren't even testing a "OTA ROM" to even begin with. A company should have better communication to their customers with upcoming updates.
As a Verizon customer and been with them for years, I come to expect this.
and as a Nexus user, I don't care when Verizon releases it because there's plenty of custom ROMs for me.
I did say it would be probably September at the earliest before the Toro gets JB officially.
Well, I just installed Vicious 4.1.1 v1, and I no longer care. Best choice I've made all day Carry on!

Dude you should learn to accept different opinions otherwise life gets boring. There is no need u to become cyankgenmod's lawyer because they do not need one. The facts regard my first post and you like it or not that is the truth. Sammy sold 20 million units of this device. Go to the international forum of the s3 and lets say you find 2000 users on that forum. Now do the math, how many percent of the overall share are these users? And that is what i am telling you even if theh stop supporting the galaxy still sammy does not get hurt at all. I said cyanogenmod was great two years ago when the android os was not so developed but now they lack ots of features. And i can give you many examples of what features they lack. Camera?svoice?smart stay? Etc etc. What are your arguments other than attacking me and not the points i make? I do not use most of those features sammy included this time but still that can make somebody think well maybe this cyanogenmod is getting lil bit behind. That is not an attack to cyanogenmod cuz i currently am using codename rom and it is great but for most part of those 20million gs3 owners cyanogenmod is not seen as u see it=god.

I can agree with the statements regarding "missing features" when comparing CM to TW. There are some things that TW has that are very nice, and become features you start to depend on as part of a great user experience.
However, CM10 has allowed me to run Jelly Bean as a reliable DD and use Google Now which completely changes the game for me. Yes, TW will update soon but the point is Cm did it already. That's just a small piece of the picture - CM has provided us with support for our phones for YEARS, and are a HUGE driving force in the Android community.
I think it would be wise for CM to start looking at adding more unique features to their builds, things TW doesn't have. But can they compete with Samsung on the highest level? Maybe.. maybe not. Samsung has really stepped it up with TW, and I applaud them for that. However I am a big fan of Android and this whole Tizen move that Samsung is doing really irritates me. Samsung is just like any other conglomerate, they want to hold all the cards when everything is said and done. Which means they have to eliminate Android to build their OWN ecosystem, and don't think they aren't. Samsung has their own movies to sell. They don't want you buying them from the Play Store.
I'm not too fond of Samsung's long term goals. They do make some of the best phones in the world, no doubt about that.. but I am an Android fan, a Google fan, first.
Which is why I see myself back on a Nexus at some point in the future.. probably whatever the best Nexus is after I get sick of the Note 2 (hey, I DID say they make some great phones..)
But losing CM support would definitely suck.. however I can't say I blame them

But losing CM support would definitely suck.. however I can't say I blame them

Everything
Right from the custom ROMs and their development, also testing different versions and compiling them. Makes me love my android
I like it coz on every update the whole UI changes.Also it's very fast as compared to other OS's out there.

Well let's see. Open-source, millions of apps have already been made for it and they keep on being released everyday and ofc its operated by the internet giant, Google which are very capable people.

too bad,
you'd certainly use iphone as target practice,
you don't need to afford an apple,
waste of money, resources, and time
iphone 4 has a single core processor and 512mb ram,
so yea, you can get a S3 with almost the same price

if it doesn't work like it should, then i can make it work like it should xD
I was an apple/iOS fanboy b4, like i begged my parents to get me an iphone (i am a student so yea) with no strong reason, but because of lack of budget and all, i settled for my first Android smartphone which is my SGY and i never regret getting it.
So yea you can say it was like destiny lol hahahaha. I like Android mainly for its customizations and flexibility

Ios has less hardware requirements too. How come no one ever considered that?

Its cz they don't produce them themselves
Because it's the only interface that's truly your own. If you don't like anything, you can almost always change it to suit your own needs :')
Android <3
