Blue highlight at the edge of screen in TW Launcher

Has this happened to anyone? I get a blue haze if I scroll all the way to the left or right when i'm surfing the net. On the edge of the screen.

That's the overspill effect. We will eventually be able to take it off on the custom ROMs.

lol. I actually hate it with a burning passion. And only cause of the color... I swear touch wiz should be called parrot wiz instead.

Ahh k I thought I had a defective phone. Thanks for the info.

It's definitely a touchwiz thing because I didn't have it on my Nexus S. I absolutely hate it also.

Not all 2.3 devices have it, though. Other Galaxy S2's don't.
As I've heard, Google added it into the Nexus line because Apple has a patent on overscroll bounce on list scrolling.

gnex or rezound

ok heres the deal guys a got an upgrade next month and im trying to decide between the two. my main points of interest are a soild camera both front and rear, music, speed, wireless tether, display, development,build quality, and signal aka connectivity. the only thing keeping me from going straight to the gnex atm is the camera, signal (i read alot of issues with the gnex) and the processor is a tid bit slower. dont get me wrong i love stock android over sense then again the dialer for sense is nice with the auto completion. idk i just cant decide i know ill get a more 1 sided opinion on this forum but try to be open minded on your opinions....

I would say go into a store and play with both phones and see what you like more.

This solves it every time. Don't like some guys on a forum tell you what device to buy... choose what's best for you. Just be an informed consumer.

I carry both phones on a daily basis. Both of them are great devices in their own respect. The only thing I'm not in love with on my nexus is the camera. If I'm going to take a picture I'll usually reach for my Rezound first but that's about the only time I will. The battery life has been better on my Rezound also but that is mostly due to the fact that I don't use it as much as my Nexus. The Nexus feels better in my hand than the Rezound (which I also like better than the blocky Razr), I like how well it rests in my palm and also really like the curved screen. As far as processor goes there is also much more to consider than a 300mhz bump in clock speed between the two. And after using my Nexus I will never want anything other than Vanilla Android 4.0+. It pains me to use anything else. Lol.
The signal on both of them has seemed equal to me to be honest. I haven't had any of the issues other users have reported with the Nexus and both are reliable as far as network connectivity and speed. The build quality on both of them are solid. As far as music goes the Rezound does come with the beats headphones which are nice...

Sort of agree with this but sometime demo units are laggy and not a full-representation of what the phone actually is when a person is using it.

Well put. The demo units are generally not a good representation as far as performance. I still recommend getting them in your hands to see what feels comfortable to each individual. It will also give you a good idea on the user interface differences and pros/cons of each.

This sums up why i use my nexus more than my sgs2.

The only reasons I would see to get a rezound would be if you love sense, or if you really need a good on your phone. I was a little iffy about the nexus, but 2 weeks in I have zero regrets. But then again camera isn't that important to me.

I was also going to mention that. Most custom roms have that feature as well as many, many more...
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I wouldnt want Sense or any other manufacturer skin/bloat/launcher, etc.

I have a GN and my wife has a rezound. Both are great phones. The Rezound does get a bit better reception. The screen is a matter of preference... The rezound is brighter, but the GN has richer colors.
I think the GN feels better in my hand and I personally prefer the button configuration
GN is definitely easier to root, although I did manage to unlock and rom the rezound also.

If you don't mind waiting, the Galaxy S III should be unveiled around then and may tickle your fancy. The Galaxy S II had a good camera so I would imagine that the next iteration would improve upon it

I'm sorry but gs2 for gnex?

Hey guys I know I've opened another one of these before but with a one s so I would like to apologize but I have a s2 and am thinking of getting a gnex.
I have read multiple online reviews and comparisoms but with mix results. Is the gnex worth trading? It is a straight trade.

I just basically want to know how is the battery, camera, processor and screen display e.g how much I would notice a difference in super amoled plus and super amoled.
These are things which aren't covered I'm reviews.

Processor is almost equal although the exynos is a much better processor. The battery is great if you know how to manage things and are smart about things me personally get around 15 hours overall 5 hours being screen on time. Over wifi on Sprint 3G which is pathetic I get around 2-3 hours of display time. There is a giant difference between the plus and pentile especially depending on the phone you may get one with purple tint however rooting and using a custom kernel and calibrating the colors and contrast will help alleviate that. Overall it's the better phone. Just got jelly bean and it's not even been pushed as an OTA.

So do you guys like your gs3? Would you have gotten a different phone, given the chance?
Just curious if this is the one to get. Im coming from the Tmobile G2X.

Well? Do you?

Lol. I love my phone. Maybe would have gotten the note 2 only for the lte.

I like it a lot. It's the best phone I've owned. However, the Note II is looking mighty tempting since it supports LTE.

No buyers remorse here. Best phone I've ever owned by a mile... and is the perfect size. I will have it for a while

What is lte?

It's a good phone. I'm going to root it soon because in it's present state I feel that performance could be better and the gross amount of bloatware is incredibly annoying. I have used the speed test app and I'm T-Mo and managed to get a max of 27.80Mbps. Not to shabby. I did realize later that the size of the phone is quite big for my hands but the screen real estate makes up for it. I don't think I would have gotten anything else. Battery is great as well.

Yes. Absolutely i love my S3.

Im assuming you're kidding? Otherwise you would not be floating around the gs3 forum still?
If you are serious, what do you mean "didnt know whether you were coming or going"? What does that even mean lol?
and by mentioning the "htc one", im assuming you mean the "one S". So that being said, no removable storage card and no removable battery, doesnt that speak for itself? Good luck with that one, or did you overlook those two missing features?
If you are serious, can you explain why u chose the htc one s over the gs3?
To the other person, the note 2 looks nice but from what i was reading, it seems a little big.
And also, people keep mentioning the nexus. Is it better than the gs3 better?

I like it, overall pretty good. WiFi performance and Wi-Fi calling are very bad. If you are planning on using WiFi calling DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!

The s3 is light years ahead of the lg, that's a 2 year old phone that wasn't even that great to begin with. IMO the only other phone out right now to compare with the s3 is samsung's own Note2, but that's a giant phone and definitely not for everybody. If you wait a little longer LG's new superphone is around the corner but who know's when exactly it'll be released.

Hey Kid. I remember you from the G2x days. Night and day different experience. Everything just works. Screen quality, speed, size, features, everything is better. This is what the android experince should be.You will love gaming on the GS3.

I love it so much. I do have an issue with the battery running out quickly but I think I have a faulty battery. Not sure. Other than that it's the best phone I've had. I don't think there's anything better out there.
The only other phone i would consider is the new Nexus coming out simply for the updates. It still hasn't been announced tho but I'm sure it'll be a fantastic device on par with the S III

I'll get it, if it has SVDO. Like having voice and data at the same time.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4

I'm still on the fence.
Assuming the Note 3 will have Sprint's Triband LTE on it, it's definitely on my radar along with the LG G2.
With the LG G2 having a 5.2 inch screen, it's more enticing to me than a humongous 5.7 inch screen of the Note 3.
Also, with TouchWiz on the Note 3, I'm leaning towards the G2.
However, the Note 3 is also more likely to get official CM support, just based on the Note 2's official status and the LG Optimus G not being official.
With official CM support, we get better AOSP kernels, so AOKP, SlimROMs, PA, and PAC-Man roms will be better.
My upgrade is in December, though. It gives me some time to think about it and hopefully see some reviews and other user impressions before choosing one over the other. And hopefully CM will announce official support for the G2, then it makes my life easier.

Me too. You getting the pink one freeza?

I was considering it. That creamy pink looks kind of neat lol. Nah I'll probably get a black one. Unless they've figured out how to not let the light bleed on the white version.
I may get a pink flip cover though. Awwww yeaaa!
As much as I'd love to keep SVDO, I don't think qualcomm will enable dual radios in their chipset anymore. :'(

Well I mean, there's SVLTE now...but Sprint is nowhere near being able to force their customers to all rely on good LTE coverage
But I doubt that the N3 will have SVDO, probably get bumped up to SVLTE

I'm tempted. Still debating whether to get a Note 3 or wait for the S5. I told myself that I'd never get a phone that big but everyone I know who has a Note 2 loves it.
Didn't like the faux leather back at first but it's starting to grow on me after watching a few hands-on videos. I still need to see and feel it in person though.

Also having my nexus, I do like the nav buttons better akin to a nexus device. I know you can on custom ROMs, but nav and hardware buttons are just silly to me.
