Hercules VS GT-I9100

Today I Traded my wifes old MyTouch 4G for a GT-I9100 (The Real GS2) Unbranded and Unlocked. I Installed CWM & Rooted it. I installed VillanRom 3.0 and ran some Quadrants to see what this thing could do. I started off with 1.4GHz ondemand with SetCpu and first score was 3950 lol. The second one I bumped it to 1.6GHz and thru down 4750 Then it rebooted itself on the third, But I mean Damn this thing is fast.
To bad I can only get EDGE with it or I would keep it. This is going to make one happy AT&T user!! Craigslist or Ebay it goes soon, but I do want to play with it a few days. lol
Our T-Mobile Variant does'nt stand a chance against this Beast. LMAO

Where the heck did you trade for a gt9100?!

I had my Wifes MyTouch for sale on Craigslist for $225 Modded to the max. This guy text me and asked me if I could root his GT-I9100 because he could only pick up the EDGE Network. I told him that phone is the international version and he would not get 3 much less 4G. He asked if I would trade for it, I told him sure no problem that it would make me a great Dev Phone. we met and did the EVEN trade. Lol The I9100 is like new. Haha

One its a god damn phone. They all run the same with enough tweaks and optimization. Two its a got damn benchmark. Quandrant means nothing which can be easily faked. Three I guess you lack confidence in real life somewhere to feel good about a benchmark.

I wish it would, but I have been on the I9100 forums most of the day and everyone says it does'nt support 1700MHz or 2100MHz (Our 3g and 4g) but it does support AT&T HSPA+.

You made a flame bait thread and then you do not even want to hear the truth. Before you tell people to stfu you should learn not to start a flame thread. You can't even have normal conversation without calling someone a retard. It be different if it was a nice comparison between the actual two devices. I would of left this thread alone.
Then you start by showing how big you feel on the Internet. The difference between two products is hardly night and day. Not like I can't run android apps because I don't have a exynos chipset. My phone still makes calls and still does literally and what the other variants can do. Unless the other variants with the exynos chipset grants me the ability to fly then there is no difference.

Sorry for the cursing, but here he chimes in with GD Phone and quite frankly pissed me off. No I dont Rely on Benchmarks, but it is what it is. There were no shady mods done to boost #s. I own both phones and should be able to tell wich is faster. Clearly the processors on the GT-I9100 will Smoke Our T-Mobile US Versions.

I wouldn't even test both phones unless they are the same playing field. Both running cm 7 or 9. Both have different kernel optimizations.
A flag ship device with the same internals which has had tons of tweaks and optimization. For at least year compared to Samsung which probably work on this device for the most at less than three months.
Forgive me for coming off rude. But in all reality you can't compare these two devices unless everything is put on the table on a fair ground. All phones are different just because the does the best benchmarks does that mean anything no it doesn't. People have the galaxy s2 but are still selling their phone for ics and a galaxy nexus. As I see it now it not a difference maybe in the far distance like a year or two future processors will matter.

Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

From what I seen the original Samsung Galaxy s2. Started at 2.3.1. Gingerbread and. Pretty much Samsung start optimizing till 2.3.7 which was a year. They also have advantage of having an international phone which brings developers from around the world to work together and optimized each other's stuff. When you have dozens of people tweaking the same things they start to get refine. Then performance starts to show.

RUMOR: T-Mobile to get HTC One X?

We know about the One S, but One X? Discuss...
http://androidandme.com/2012/02/sma...e-to-get-stock-android-4-0-and-quad-core-cpu/

While it would be so SO awesome if we got the X, I'm having a hard time believing that we would get it with stock Android. Then again, the point about quad and HSPA makes sense.

If this turns out to be true I am in. Still depends if tmobile gets the next iphone or a nokia windows phone. Been thinking of trying something different. But an HTC phone with aosp again would be awesome.

T-Mobile won't get the iPhone it cost simply to much just to get it. It really put a hit on Verizon when they got it. I don't see it happening.

there's not much difference between the X, S, or even the amaze to warrant an upgrade so soon. Just out of curiosity, what could a phone do that the amaze can't do? speaking aside from aesthetics. and S-OFF

That's been my argument all along also. Aside from AOSP ROMs, we will have everything (esp when ics drops). And now that we have dual core cpus, we can actually run sense roms with no lag and plenty of free RAM still. A few new devs for mods, themes, etc would be nice, but we have a nice variety of 3.0 ROMs, a 3.5 ROM, another 3.5 port coming soon, and a dev working on ics. What else? Not to forget, team Revolutionary will soon have a donated Amaze to try and get a $1k pledge for getting s=off.
I say this phone is in a better position than people make it out to be.

Well I think its kind of dumb because LTE doesn't work with quad core, if tmo were to get the one x, it will be a waste for next year because next year tmo will have LTE

We wonder where all the money is and why no once can hire or do anything. Could it be company's like Apple. Worth 500 billion today. Which means they are worth more than Greece by a long shot and just over the value of Poland as well. These are whole countries with GNP and citizens. Obviously something is wrong if someone can put that much money away. How about putting some of that to use in the global economy Apple???

Wow tegra3 really? Good luck getting sources for drivers from Nvidia. But the X is a damn good phone and would probably opt-out for the X instead of the S.

im sure you wouldnt even need to root the phone lol, nvidia supports all its hardware, still supports hardware that is years old back to the GT series.. tegra will be supported for a long time since they are in tablets and heading towards phones

The rumor says that the One X will be branded G4X, I'm really hoping that's the case. I'm trying to hold off on renewing contract until May, when it's possible that they will announce something like this at the CTIA.

Now that the LTE version is dubbed the XL, I really think we have a shot at this. I've been holding out with my G2 for awhile now because T-Mo hasn't gotten anything worth upgrading to. Recently replaced a myTouch 3G for a SGS II and wasn't impressed much. However, the specs and knowing it already has a home on XDA alone makes me ready to part ways.

T-mobile is not getting the HTC One X, the are getting the One S. AT&T will be getting the X. Which sucks because it is the better of the two.

htc cutting their smartphones prices????!!!

wtf is that right htc cutting their phone prices because off the losses? i just bought the one x 2 monthes ago for about 600$ in asia! really stunned !

No idea if this is true but it makes sense, they are competing with alot of new phones at the moment (and coming up, like the iPhone 5) and yes bad economical times too for HTC, to keep up with the competition > lower prices.

Ya ..One X will be down to half n so does One S n One V will be given away for free with every Beats Headphones u buy..

If you read the source story the liklihood of it being true are slim. Since when does a site called "mydrivers" suddenly become credible? The bad press and rumor mongering are going to hurt HTC more than anything they do at their own hand.

Even of it's true so what? You already bought the phone and I don't know about you but I think I am gonna use the phone for a while and judging by how android phones have been sooner or later the price is gonna go down anyway because there will be newer phones with better specs sold for the same price we bought our phones awhile ago.

You hate the screen which takes 90% of the phone, hate touchwiz, which defines the way you interact with the phone but still think S3 is better... that makes sense. Or at least explains why you trust that source.
Let's get real. If there are some price cuts they will be for the Chinese version (HTC did say they will bet on the Asian market) which means locked bootloaders, internet limited to the Chinese version and all the other goodies the Chinese will make HTC include in the phone. Thanks, but no thanks!

I don't understand why anyone would expect them not to cut the price. When I got my hTC Desire, it had to be on a £36+/month contract to be free. Just 6 months later, it was on £20 contracts and the One X is going that way. All phones do, they're never 'current' for very long, it's just something you have to accept when buying electronics these days. Next year, all the midrange phones will have quad core CPUs and HD screens, the the year after, a £99 network operator-rebranded ZTE will. It's a _good_ thing. Don't complain about being an early adopter, it's your choice to make.
Ask yourself this: While you may be able to purchase the phone, or an equivalent phone for less money now, surely you couldn't at the time you bought it? Are you not happy you've been able to use it until now?

when it was first launched, in UAE it was like DHS 2750 and after a month its DHS 2500 and stayed like that for 3 more months, now its around DHS 2300-2400. Thats normal for every phone i've got and even the s3 is around the same price now as well.

Worst Experience Ever.

can someone please make me feel better about this?
i got into android phones early 2011, when i bought my dad an hd2. i sold my iphone 4 and bought myself a g2x (it was the top out specs wise). i actually liked it alot. it was powerful and everything was great. a year later, this past august, i sold my g2x first, then bought the one x. bought it for 400 off contract and it was a DEVELOPER PHONE. it shipped S OFF. anyway i flashed renovate 3.0 over leedroid 6.4.0 and not the boot.img yet and it was okay until i wiped data. it went in a bootloop and died and i didnt think much of it. it went into apx mode. apparently because the OS's reserve battery shutdown didnt take place. anyway, had to send it to htc and its been a MONTH. mind you im an android enthusiast. worst part now is that my dumbphone, the samsung highlight, seems to be doing everything except browsing. i mean i can txt and download videos on my computer then convert to work on the phone. maybe im just used to it because i also used it for a while after i got the one x (didnt have time to go to tmobile to get my sim cut). please make me feel better. worst of all im losing pics with my cousin that were on the one x. nothing else is lost. just that.
EDIT: and now theyre giving me an att one x. the dual core thing -_-

I guess htc will not return your device as they will consider it stolen if it was an S-OFF demo or dev phone. Compared to your previous worst ever experience that's really going to sting.

i think the worst thing ever is starting to be the XDA general section
who told you XDA is the place to come and cry? i dont get it, its a freaking developer website! not kinder garden

WTF? could not understand alot of that!!!! :silly:

Let's all be Nice and send some pics from our cousins to help him feel better about this horrible thing...
Oh wait, better send food to starving Kids...

I guess the guy who said that on Samsung XDA people answer more pleasantly than on Htc XDA for people that's not so familiar with the forum or who don't know much about customising phone.

Take a gander at the OP's posting history.
I think there are times when we (myself included) are hard on people. This isn't one of them.

OP, is your phone even the Teg3 version? What you're describing as a "developers version" sound like a couple of early pre-release AT&T XL's that were sold on eBay. Regardless, I'd love to help you but couldn't figure out what it is you want or need in your original post.

can someone please make me feel better about this?
i got into android phones early 2011, when i bought my dad an hd2. i sold my iphone 4 and bought myself a g2x (it was the top out specs wise). i actually liked it alot. it was powerful and everything was great. a year later, this past august, i upgraded, sold my g2x first, then bought the one x. bought it for 400 off contract and it was a DEVELOPER PHONE. it shipped S OFF. anyway i flashed renovate 3.0 over leedroid 6.4.0 and not the boot.img (kernel) and it was okay until i wiped date. it went in a bootloop and died and i didnt think much of it. anyway it went into apx mode. apparently because the OS's reserve battery shutdown didnt take place. anyway, had to send it to htc and its been a MONTH. mind you im an android enthusiast. worst part now is that my dumbphone, the samsung highlight, seems to be doing everything except browsing. i mean i can txt and download videos on my computer then convert to work on the phone. maybe im just used to it because i also used it during the time between me getting a micro sim for one x and me using my g2x. please make me feel better. worst of all im losing pics with my cousin that were on the one x. nothing else is lost. just that.

Worst experience ever?
1. Read properly
2. Rom / kernel flashes need its booting flashing aswell.
3. Your pics should have been automatically backed up to drop box.
What's the problem?
Did you just not read properly? - then blame the phone?

yes it was tegra 3.
i searched and posted for nearly a week but no one helped so i shipped it off.
because of the apples itc ruling i am now getting an att one x back.
i disabled pic to drop box backup because i dont have data and as soon as i would turn on wifi it would just be such a huge load i didnt bother. i backup my sd files biweekly anyway.

HTC One for Verizon officially announced.

I love the DNA but I also love having the latest HTC available, how many of y'all will be considering doing whatever you have to in your situation to get your hands on this phone? I wish I could say I'll stay content with my DNA, I just remember saying that about the rezound and incredible lte.

I'm not dropping my DNA but I'm for sure getting the One.

I'd like to say I'm considering the HTC one, but not sure I'd consider it on Verizon. Id honestly like to see them come out with a smaller screen, like 4.3", with some decent hardware specs. Just not feeling the larger screens anymore.

I like the HTC One for sure, but I don't know if it's enough of a jump over the DNA to warrant the change. I'm still on unlimited data, so I'm going to need to buy my next phone outright, and I think it might be worth waiting for next year's HTC flagship since the DNA is still so awesome.

Pretty sure they will come out with DNA 2 in November. Just my hunch

I plan on getting it at some point, I just know it won't be at a subsidised price. I'd like to keep my DNA but the cheapest way for me to get the One will be rapid exchanging it at best buy until they junk it out cause I know they don't have too many DNA refurbs lying around (worked for bb until recently, I know my way around Geek squad plans). I would've waited for the one (just upgraded to DNA in April) if I didn't have that contingency in place. Still think the DNA is a great phone, I wouldn't mind or be surprised if another one showed up on the fall but with an even bigger screen (which is what kept me away from this one so long).

There's NO comparison between the DNA and the one. The one blows the DNA away in every aspect especially speed and efficiency. I run mine overclocked to 2.1GHz an still get 1/3 more battery life than my DNA at stock clock speeds. Screen is brighter, phone is thinner, cameras are better, DEVELOPMENT is better (because it's cross carrier), speakers are WAAAAAY louder and have depth..... get the one

It's actually crossed my mind to sell my DNA and pick this up.. I have to sell the DNA because I can't afford a retail purchase without the cash from the DNA .. I could always just add a line and upgrade.. but not sure that would be a viable option ... Still waiting on the retail cost.. Will it be the same as other carriers with the One you think?

I'd guess around 650-700 retail. I cant remember if the DNA was 650 or 699, but I was thinking the One was slightly cheaper when it launched.
I should add to my above comment in the second post, it's likely I'll get the ATT version of the One, because of the development with the GSM versions. I carry an ATT and Verizon device in my pocket, so it may end up being One and DNA as my daily drivers.
You guys interested in the One, you can sell really old smartphones like the Wildfire, Blackberry Curve, Incredible, etc for $100 a piece in ATT gift cards.

Just think, the first time I paid full retail for a phone and the first time I have ever damaged a device were about a week apart. Yeap, I busted my $700 device when it was a week old, I was sick.
I was really scared to tell my girlfriend as she bought it for me for Valentines Day. But when I finally told her she was like "Baby really? The phone, you're that upset about a phone? I thought you got a little girl pregnant or something, you really had me scared."

Don't get me wrong, the One is an amazing phone, but I would rush off the DNA. Its still a powerful device, and in my opinion the One isn't a huge enough leap for me to rush to get it. .02$

lol they are the same phone. the one only has a sightly faster cpu out of the box and diffrent speaker placement. .... both phones have independent amps a similar shape, similar components, similar software (they even have a rom if you like blinkfeed).... 200 mhz faster big whoop, is not like you cant oc it to 1.7... its silly to buy one if you got a dna..... its like throwing away or trading in a black 2012 Tahoe for a silver 2013 Tahoe (its the same exact truck).. if you had like a gs3 or a razr or something older it makes sense to wait a lil bit and buy it instead of the dna cuz it is the newest phone.

You can't assume that features like those you mentioned are the only thing important to everyone. It's kind of like assuming that everyone who buy's a device plans to talk on it. We are far from the average or typical consumers and there's way more than a few hundred mhz to our purchasing decisions.
I'm not saying you are right or wrong, I'm just saying that you should consider with an open mind that a lot of people could care less about the specs on the side of the box and put the emphasis on something dev related when making purchases. It's like saying everyone cares about battery life. Or nobody likes HTC Sense. There's a wide variety of people, ideas, and personalities in the development community that the standard consumer rules don't apply too.
You have to also remember that the reason we have Android devlopers on new devices is because they were stupid enough to buy a new device that was only a slight upgrade above the old one.
Off Topic: I spent three days with a GS4 and wasn't impressed with it at all.
