If they're too stupid to identify their own phone, no wonder they can't tell an iPhone apart from an Android phone!
I believe they were shown the iPhone 4, not even 4s. That's embarrassing.

No the weren't, i know few of them. They're genuinely stupid.
I would love to see the peoples reactions if they were given a galaxy nexus or s3 branded with an apple logo instead.
Am I the only one who finds these Apple/iPhone bashing posts on the Gnex forums rather pointless and childish? I mean there's not-so-bright Android users as well. This is beginning to sound more like a circle jerk than anything else.

Exactly, thank you for seeing my point of view. These posts add nothing to our forums and basically pollute it as well.
Maybe I'll start a forum specifically for iphone bashing. I'll probably get rich!

No, it really gets old. Apple vs Android or Android vs Android. We should be here to share experiences, knowledge, and ideas to further our phone development and to push its limits even farther. Not sit here and joke and bash other phones or companies. "When you argue with an idiot, from a distance, you can't tell which one is the idiot."
Oh Christ, he posted it cause he thought some people would find it amusing, which I did. Get off his nuts. If a thread is pointless to you or bothers you, don't post in it. There are too many users on XDA for it to never be cluttered on here. Posting about clutter is pointless. At least he didn't post it in development or something of that sort.

But the point of the Galaxy nexus general forum is to post Nexus news. Take it to the general android forum. Either way it does not relate to us nor does it relate to the Galaxy Nexus. If it was something like the Apple vs Samsung or Apple vs Motorola then it would pertain to android. All this does is reinforce the whole sheeple thing and Apple fans are dumb blah blah blah. I think it's rather stupid that we criticize other people that choose an OS that may not appeal to you.

Nah, it's childish. It's not like they're showing every single person they asked. I'm sure of the ten people who believed it or went with it, 90 more would say, "This is a 4S" or "This doesn't look like it would be an iPhone 5", etc etc.
It's a biased video, to think otherwise is childish.
I too am tired of all the hate on both sides. I've actually came here less because all I see is apple bashing. People can use whatever phone they'd like. I myself had an Iphone and a gnex.

Hi guys.
This is my first post and i was doing a little research and couldn't find much of an answer....
My question is.... Does the Samsung Galaxy SII Epic 4G Touch for Sprint have the hardware to be compatible with the new 4G LTE updates that Sprint is doing to their network? I am in Dallas and I should be one of the first to benefit from this network upgrade.
I was told "No" by some.
By others (Sprint Store, Franchise) I was told "Yes, no problem at all. We will do an OTA and you might have to come in to the store to apply some changes but its definitely possible"....
My problem is that i don't know who to trust.
I do NOT want to have to upgrade my phone again to benefit from the 4G LTE upgrade. That's just retarded.
I need someone that has the hardware specifications (and the technical background) to provide a no nonsense answer as to whether or not an OTA update will "Unlock" LTE capabilities on this phone, if the capability exists at all.
Not to be an ass, but i don't want speculations or opinions.
I need a straight-forward and logical answer.
Does this phone have the hardware in it to be 4G LTE compatible or not.
Thanks in advance!!!

Please ask your question in Epic 4G Touch forums. If you read and payed attention you would notice this is the OG Epic 4G.

What I don't get is most of these people who ask questions about the touch are using a desktop/laptop non mobile so they see what the phone looks like on side of forum they can't be that blind, I swear they do it on purpose. But even if they missed that it still doesn't say "touch" so confusion is not an acceptable answer for an excuse IMHO.

Not sure if you're referring to me or not but I'm as chill as they come. I'm a little tired of seeing peeps asking questions about the Epic Touch when it has it's own forum. So sorry for sounding like an ass but it really gets old when you see the same types of posts. People really need to pay attention.

To be fair I think it is pretty well established that there is no shortage of og epic users with an inability to read. Luckily for the people in the touch forums there was probably only one phone called the epic 4g when our non readers started on xda so it is us who get the confused touch folks rather than them who get confused keyboard folk...

I'm sorry but ya'lls ability to get so frustrated so EASILY is amazing and funny to me, sometimes...
If you've noticed, i am a brand new user and that was literally my first post.
I tried to post another topic stating "Hey, my bad, this is new to me phone and I just joined the forum." but i had to wait 15 minutes to post another, because that's what happens on your first couple of posts when your a member that literally just joined.
Instead of replying to ignorance, I decided to use the post, after the 15 minute wait, on a thread that wasn't going to most likely be giving complete BS answers that have nothing to do with the subject.
BUT...
Since you would like to flame and get all red faced over a stupid "He posted in OUR section" issue.... Then obviously you've got some personal things you need to work on. How to deal with people, along with your inability to shrink your head. Because it looks to me like your suffering from "Big Headedness." And i mean every single bit as constructive criticism.

When theirs a picture of our phone with a slider and you dont what possesses you to think oh thats my forum? when theirs stickies that say NON TOUCH section that should give you the hint "hey maybe this isn't for my phone".
You dont see any of us posting over there because 1st off we can read and see that thats clearly not our phone. 2nd off taking the few extra seconds to make sure would actually help just like i make sure im in the right Nexus S forum.
since the op only has 2 posts, i take it he never found the correct forum?
OP....a simple Google would have told you there is no LTE radio in there and a Galaxy S2 HD LTE is due out sometime to replace it. Google will not flame you for asking questions.

This topic has been discussed before, with our epic's too. Apparently sprint is saying that our 4g radio will be able to run on the lte network with a firmware update. So, even if he DID post in the wrong forum, there's no need to flame because its applicable to our devices also.

No offense taken. Do you have any links for this. Because I googled it before I posted that and could not find anywhere that said that. I would love to learn more about it. Was that both Epics? So a "simple" google was definitely the wrong answer..lol.
Seeing as this is a discussion about XDA and not about general phones, I thought this is the most appropriate place to put this thread. I have also checked for similar threads but have found nothing.
If a mod thinks otherwise I am sorry for posting in the wrong place.
I have created this thread as you can probably tell, to ask why there is no iOS in the listed platforms on XDA.
With iOS on XDA the site itself will recieve: - A much much larger audience
- More users
So why not include it.
This is not a request even though it may seem like it. There is obviously a reason as to why there is no iOS and I simply want to root it out. Even if it only takes one or two posts and the thread has to be moved around by mods for posting in the incorrect place.
Please contribute to the thread. I have also created a poll. If you do not have time to leave a comment, use the poll.
Anything relating to iOS can be found on XDA's sister site, forum.iphone-developers.com. The reason they don't put that section on this site is because it would inevitably cause too many flame wars between iOS fanboys and Android fanboys.

Why people cannot just accept ios as simplicicty and android as power I just do not know.
I wouldn't know because I've never owned an apple product. I've only ever used them whilst trying to sort problems out for my family & friends who own them.
I just simply couldn't own one because I mainly customize my phone through widgets, launchers etc. There isn't the ability to do that from iOS.

I think they do, just not in the tone that you mean. Discussions of this sort invariably take on a nasty tone due to the scorched earth policy decided upon by one of the involved companies.
On a different note, would you please consider reducing the font size you are using? Honestly, it comes across in exactly the same manner as all caps does by "yelling". I do not believe you mean it that way, but it does come across that way in effect. Thank you.

That is true. I've always loved android for that. But because so many hipsters get iphone. The support is through the roof. Jailbreak will permit anything.

a.) they just asked if there was a timeframe, not an exact date.
b.) they asked politely.

d.) they donated once, or thought about it, or their cousin did.
e.) they are noob and haven't had a chance to read.

I'm sure I'm not the only person who notices, but the past couple of weeks or so, XDA has been downright ridiculous...or should I say the members?
People are so tense. People don't even bother to read. Most of the time, the answer is just a few messages back. No OP's are being read. People are just....I don't know. It's like everyone is on smack or something. What makes it worse, is that the same questions get asked many times and yet, people keep on asking.
This creates problems, because the people who need help cannot find it, through the continuous garbage that's being spilled and it seems as if the mod(s) have gone missing...or maybe I'm just not looking hard enough. Then, we have the people who hide under the guise of being a "newb" hoping that, it'll give them an excuse, when apparently these same people have been on this site, for quite some time and some KNOW better. Haha, then they get upset when their answer isn't spoon fed to them.
*sigh*
I mean, REALLY people, what's going on? You can call this a rant if you choose, but I feel better now. People, just read....and experiment. There's no reason why you be asking how to use a rom specific feature in a rom. Not with videos and well written guides out there.

Dude, you read my mind ENTIRELY! There's always that person who replies after you and tells the person who asks, the entire thing. Then, we get looked at as the bad guys. It's not that at all. We care enough about the community, to want everyone be knowledgeable in these things. Think of the people who, after reading, may become developers down the line. They need to learn. How about said persons power goes out. How in the world would they know how to preserve their devices to the fullest, if they DON'T have knowledge? There IS no asking "Hey, I'm a newb and my power is out. How do I set my brightness to a lower level and clock my CPU down, so I can save some battery?" At that point.
It ticks me, because instead of being able to easily find and help hose who need it, or to find out information, I have to wade through countless pages of garbage, just to find what I'm looking for. No to mention, that Tapatalk isn't search friendly. I just hope people will "go the extra mile". Not just for themselves, but for the community as a whole.

This happens all the time all over xda happened in the evo forums when it was popular and right now and has been popular. Especially when sprint had a deal on them. Just try to remember it the Internet... We were all noobs

Yes, I have to remember that, but it would be a lot easier, if it didn't affect so many people....and myself.

Don't complain and then put these words in every post....John Ch3 "5) Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6) That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7) Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. (KingJamesVersion)

Your point being? That has nothing to do with people failing to read. Again, this affects the community as a whole. Not just a few people. Haha, in fact that fits quite nicely.

There's also an alarming trend of people quoting everything from the previous post. I've seen people quote as many as ten paragraphs to add a simple one line response...
R: What In The World Is Going On With XDA As of Late?
Whats going on its inevitable for every forum
because there are 2 kinds of people in a forum:
- people that read every single word in every single post in every single thread
- people that come for the first time, open a thread (existing nor new ) and simply ask a question
Both are not to blame everyone is free to choice what to do in life
But when those 2 kind of users meet, its "war"..and this is wrong, because both will need to understand each other scope.

From the bottom of my heart in a soft voice WWJD?
Better here than in some other places
I came here from rootzwiki where it was not uncommon to see threads with > 2k pages. I jumped on the mmuzzy bandwagon and when I tried to post I got hand-in-face - I wasn't allowed to post in a dev forum. Completely understand, and appreciated that as well as the rules for duplicate threads and locking threads. So I guess if I post 10 times in this thread I'll be allowed to post in a dev forum, but I hardly ever do.

lol op are you new to the world? They are called idiots and they are multiplying faster than ever. They think smart phones will make them not appear dumb but unfortunately it only amplifies their retard levels to new heights. You just have to laugh at there stupidity and use it to make yourself feel better.

Well in the "newbs" defense a lot of the rom or mod threads are so ridiculously long and filled with hundreds of pages of "wow smoothness rom Eva!" so it unrealistic to ask them to read 1000 pages to find an answer to a simple question. Add to that some OP are terribly out of date or empty of real information.
Not excusing all of them but, don't let it bother you too much.

Nexus 5 is another amazing choice of smart phone and glad to get as many as cases&covers for this new mate, share your founding and enjoy here...
Phone is not even out yet and you're asking people to post cases? People like you really get on my nerves. You only post these kind of threads to try and get a popular thread.. You're not even contributing to the community by posting this.
ITS JUST SPAM!

I agree.. but at least we have somewhere to to discuss the rumours.. absolutely pointless asking for cases, homescreen screen shots etc.
