A simple question. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

If you had the choice to switch to either of these phones for free.. Which would you choose?
The HTC One X or the Samsung Galaxy S 3?
I'm stuck at making a choice.. I need some help and some reasons..

Dude.
Pick a phone that you like.
I'm sure googling "specs _______" would show you the processors and such that reside in each.
Also, what you look for in a phone has a lot to do with the decision.
TouchWiz or Sense?
Dev community or not?
Are you capable of making an informed decision with asking a random individual on the internet?
If not...switch to iPhone.
They're the best for users who just want to stumble blindly into decisions.

I'm leaning more towards the S3 cause my brother had the One X.. All I wanted were some personal opinions.. Maybe learn somethings I didn't know.. I had the iPhone 4s for about a month,.. I did not like it..

Simple answer: neither you couldn't pay me to give a nexus up.
Nothing to see here folks just another useless thread

Is the GN going to have it's own forum for the Verizon version?

I think it would be a great idea, it will get crowded real quick otherwise...
Plus there could possibly be some complications from flashing a GSM rom/kernel on a cdma device.

I would make things easier. Hope XDA considers it.

Agreed - a separate forum for VZW GN would be fantastic.
Some people have already asked questions about flashing mods and whatnot for a GSM GN on a VZW GN. It would be prudent to create a separate forum in my opinion.
I find it annoying as is to sift through all the stuff as is, with it mixed together, I can't think of how hard it will be to find stuff once development goes full blast.
separate forum is my vote.
We definitely need a separate forum.
If not separate entire forum, maybe separate subforums for LTE vs GSM, or something like mandatory thread tags that show up in the title (you have to choose GSM or LTE/CDMA right below the subject line and it gets prepended in brackets [ ]).

+ 1. I'm already being super cautious about flashing stuff. There's going to be lots of issues with people flashing the wrong stuff. Wait fo it.

The last few days seems to really show that this is needed.
Please pretty please, mods?
yeop.. agree.. seperate forum.
Yep, I already got myself into all kinds of trouble trying to install the "search icon/menu icon" addon. Turns out, if you have the LTE version you lose your notification bar & all the bottom icons. I'll be far more cautious now, but I'm sure I won't be the last one to try and install the wrong version of something.
They should seperate it like they did for the Milestone / Droid, and have really just a seperate dev section for each phone but otherwise it was a shared thread.

fairwell!

so guys i got me and my wife a s3 yesterday and i am going on to that forum...
thanks for everything here guys!!!
cya
Nice! i am still thinking about S3 or the soon new iphone.
Wife is going to inherit my nexus and I'm moving to the s3.
maybe this is just the jealousy talking but.. piss off.

These kind of threads never end well.
I recommend posting in the phone comparison thread
Most user don't care if you are leaving unless you are a developer or excellent contributor. I may be wrong but 89 thanks probably doesn't qualify.
I wish you the best with your new phone
Thanks

Yes and No, While i think having them combined will be best for all parties. As the requested topic we can make them easier to deviate new threads.

I hope that is the case, if labled with the right tag, we will only need to focus on that when looking at topics. I for one want to focus on all Sprint related topics/questions first, and if I have time help the rest of the SGS3 owners. But Id like to be closer friends with the people that are on the same carrier as me... No offence
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
Don't forget ...
Don't forget (Americans often do) that there's also Rogers, Bell, and Telus, not to mention a few more in Canada.
Rogers, Bell and Telus use the AT&T I747. I'm not sure about Virgin, Mobilicity, etc.
Peter
Addendum: I really should say that Rogers, Bell and Telus use the I747, which AT&T also uses. I really don't like saying it's an AT&T I747, because it's not.
Personally, I will try and use [I747] on all my posts.
Yeah I can see a lot of locked threads,alot of trolling,and alot of flame wars about which carrier is the best I hope there will be more then two mods in these threads

There's advantages to both ways. But I'm not sure that the average user base will be able to take advantage of this setup and NOT cause a cluster#$%@. Not to mention the tendency to repeat previously asked questions... with four times as many carriers.

Exactly, this could get bad fast, and I see even more MOD attention would be needed, idk, maybe we are wrong and this will all work out for the best. Id love to see it be as easy as possible to stay connected and informed (on Sprint related topics mostly). I already find it hard to concentrate, but that's a personal problem I guess

XDA is about hacking devices, not discussing carriers. Don't forget that.
Go to a carrier-related forum if you want that.
I, for one, see this as a good change. Speaking as an engineer/developer.
Already we have 2 Off-Topic threads discussing this change. Don't complain about off-topic threads when you post in them.
This is good for me, since I'm kinda sad that I'm leaving my OG Epic bretheren from sprint to head to Bid Red..
Now I can keep tabs on ya's

Not really a good change, a step in the right direction, yes. But I for one only want to see Sprint related general/off topic posts when I come into the SGS3 general forum. That's why I ask for the tags. I mean that is a system in its self that needs to be used here ( I would love to see that happen). I'm just saying that makes it so much easier when scanning, and when you don't want to have to subscribe to all the Sprint related topics just to keep up with what your trying to focus on is ridiculous if you ask me.

I think I found your problem.
Okay, so other than:
1. *****ing about poor coverage.
2. *****ing about LTE roll-out.
3. *****ing about bundled apps.
4. *****ing about insurance/TEP.
What else possibly belongs in the General section that's Sprint-specific?
XDA has an off-topic section. Go there if you want to talk about whatever. It's about time these forums get back to device/development. This place has been taken over by whiny 14 year olds for too long.
And get off my lawn!

Tho we wouldn't have to if we had separate forums. I know in the past there were several that would cross platforms from international version to US versions and that was great, but I think it's a bit confusing to do it like this and if you're going to label every thread with a carrier anyway, why not just have it's own forum??
It is what it is I guess.
Hey the other day I seen this phone at a Sprint store, some girl offered me a favor for a look at my SGS3 PB 32gb Sprint version, I said I didn't have it yet, but soon I will be able to flash it for that favor you offered
Cool [Sprint] story right?

PSA: Q&A

Hey guys, so even though I don't have my inc2 anymore, I have been watching these forums and have realized there has been a recent influx of questions in the general section. Now I'm not b*tching or anything, but I would just like to make a public service announcement (since people seem to have forgotten) saying that all questions should go in the Q&A section. Thanks.

I think that's true with some, while others its just pure laziness and idiocy. Lol
What do you mean? There are no rules. I'm on the internet. I can do whatever I want. You have to reply to my question no matter where I post it.
....and your answer must be what I want or I will YELL AT YOU WITH MY KEYBOARD because my parents didn't teach me how to respect others.

Or if on a custom ROM that devs make do they ask how to V6 n which script to use n how to use it even though the ROM dev states its not his work n won't fully support it because they can't provide solid answers on other work.
I thank ROM devs for their hard work and all. If I could donate food stamps believe me I would.

Please only start 1 thread about the same thing and that is presumably that you have already searched and there is not another thread out there for the very exact same thing.
The other threads are Gone and this one is Closed. I suggest you read a bit more and do a bit more research.
If somehow got up to enough posts to put this in the Dev section, they would eat you alive. The taste of fire that you got here would be nothing compared and then I would have to come in and do my thing and no one wants that.
