Android and DAC - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Is it possible to use an external USB AMP/DAC with Galaxy Nexus like this?

Pretty impressive.. but from the looks no.
If you happen to have this product then give it a shot, I'd rather use a system.. but this product only looks apple prepared.

What if it were a CEntrance Dacport rather than that?

Unsure what that is, link? Maybe some else will see this and shed some light on this topic. Don't know a lot about DAC/Amps.

Performance difference between int ver and hercules ON STOCK

I'm really curious to find out the difference between exynos/mail and the adreno/1.5ghz. If anyone had chance to compare them CRITICALLY (since they would both fly imo lol) could you share your opinions? Thnks!

I have both and to me TGS2 is faster and feels better.

I have both this and a Sprint Galaxy S2 with the same Exynos/Mali is the international, and they seem fairly comparable.
I haven't noticed a big speed difference anywhere in day-to-day use in the few days that I've had both.

In the couple of days I've had both, I haven't been able to notice any consistent difference in anything except benchmarks. They really seem pretty similar.

Thank you couple more questions! Does the hercules have korean as a language option? And which of the 2 sgs2 do you reckon has a better sound output through headphones? I'm trying to find out whether it has wolfson or yamaha dac lol

I'm pretty sure all Galaxy S2 use the inferior Yamaha DAC. You'll have to go another manufacturer or last-gen to get Wolfson as far as I know.
I can't check for you on stock on language, but my Hercules running Juggernaut has Korean as a language option.

Really, that sounds interesting. You got a link?
If one of them would have it, it should really be ours, which is a real oddball in the family.

Well it's not our phone that has the superior audio chip, we've got the Yamaha chip as anadtech.com had a review that tested the specs of this vs the Wolfson.

That's for the international Galaxy S2. I don't think Anandtech reviewed the T-Mobile.

Had exactly the same thoughts about the Note.
Would love to have the same software functionality on My SGS2
-Maga
same here.
I also tried the apk's to no avail.
The display resolution is probably a deal breaker.
The folks from the Virtuous rom might know how this works.
Or start decompiling, use smali to figure things out
Ya i interested also.
Don't know can port the S-MEMO or not

As far as i know, the hardware-construction is the same, also the stylus-functionality should be no problem via finger-on-screen. Only wondering how the stylus really works...
Maybe the stylus is tracked like a sheet digitizer on a computer, but in this case it must have a battery, so maybe it has really battery and gets reloaded via an inductive hardware-component... But just thinkin' ^.^
Apart from the normal touchscreen, the note also has an actual wacom digitizer. So you would only be able to replicate the functionality with less precise results.

Pretty sure that was the VZW model.
But the Sprint model should be on Amazon Wireless too. Not for $0.01 tho.

It's still a solid phone, and $100 is a pretty good upgrade price. But newer phones have come out and will continue to, so it basically comes down to what you feel is the right move. Sorry for the smart ass replies, but it's like someone asking if they should root their phone. Do a little research and make the call. Obviously the majority of us are going to say yes.

LG sucks, the G2x is proof.

Opinion

I recently made the switch to the Galaxy Nexus from the Galaxy S II T989 and I have to say I'm loving the change.
Would anyone else agree? Or did I downgrade?

This phone is always compared to the S2. There's plenty of threads for that. I personally think its an upgrade, but most people on THE NEXUS FORUM will probably think so.

Going to a Nexus from any phone is an upgrade imo

I came from the LG G2x/p999. After that experience, I learned that stability and having a phone that "just works" are far more important to me than having the "fastest hardware."
