I like the guy too from the Epic 4g days.. The only thing I never liked is I had the EvoLTE for a short time and he was blowing up that forum insulting the EvoLTE telling everyone how much better the Epic was at the time.. Kinda disappointed being I think everyone should respect any device
Kenny Glass has the GS3...so does flastnoles.... They will be here "full time" soon enough....

I'm a bit undecided as to where I'm going. The Eclipse looks nice, as do the Nexii rumors, as do the EvoLTE and SGS3. I doubt I would want the GNote2 though, unless someone can convince me why it's not too big, especially since I already have a tablet.

My upgrade is not until Jan and while I could etf, I kind of want to wait to see if there is anything better between now and then, like the optimus g and nexii.

Most of the devs working on Exynos (like codeworkx and Entropy512) can't stand it, so I think I will be avoiding that. Plus from a hardware standpoint, the quadcore A9 is about equivalent to dual core Krait, so quad core Krait will kick its ass. Plus the Adreno 320 GPU in the S4 Pro processors is supposedly as powerful as the Xbox 360's GPU. It is the fastest SOC on the market. Plus, 5.5 in is pretty big especially considering that I already have a tablet. Although, I have never used a note so I would probably at least give it a chance at Sprint.

The optimus g is nice and since one of the nexus devices will be based on it, we won't have to worry about LG's overlay and lack of updates.

There is work being done on a stock rooted rom, kernels, and CM 10.1 by various developers, somewhat including myself. Hang out on IRC to get the latest updates. We should have a stock flashable rom hopefully within a week, but there is no knowing for sure, and if there will be any bugs.
I'm confused, isn't there already a stock flashable rooted rom

For the at&t version. The same person who made it just sent me a alpha for the same thing on our devices for me to try. Waiting to download, and will post results after i tell the developer. We have it in an .img form though.

I certainly hope there will be ROMs coming for the Optimus G... I'm split between this and the Galaxy Note II and my contract is up tomorrow. I'm leaning towards the Optimus G because of the IPS display and GSM/HSPA support, but not having community/dev support is an absolute deal breaker.

Looks pretty nice, but the specs seem a little behind the current curve. Isn't the S4 going to sport a 5 inch screen with a 2.0 Ghz quad core exynos?

Could you ask him why Nexus 4 Kernels boot on the E973 and Canadian variants, but not the USA variants? That would help immensely and would allow us to have cm just like they do. Then, the real work could get started (Sense, MIUI, Blur, Xperia UI, maybe B2G and Ubuntu for phone, and maybe even WebOS). Whatever you guys want, I will work on when we have a stable CM (which I am also working on).

Best phone out there but Roms is sad
All I can say is wow. The display is beautiful just amazingly clear and sharp. The S4 Pro Krait is just a work horse. In the last month I did a few trades. S3, Evo lte, iphone 5 and lastly the Note 2. I found a winner and the phone feels great in the hands. Build quality is top notch. Looking forward to jellybean.

Ya at first I thought amoled screens were the be all, end all. As soon as I saw LGOG I was like wow. Everything is so crisp and colors were natural. Did a lil research on the screen and it turns out that it's 100% RGB accurate. My laptop has IPS and its only 60%ish.

As much as I love my LGOG I still think my Note 2 is a far superior phone no matter which way you slice it.
Not to mention the LGOG is very unpopular and people are pretty much giving them away on eBay for under 300 bucks so like someone already mentioned, I hope you got some cash in return for your Note.

Not really sure about that. It's running an outdated chipset, but the only thing going for it is that massive battery.

Outdated? I still get quantum scores equal and sometimes better then the OG. I agree the Qualcomm processor is better then the Tegra 3 but a phone is more than just its chip.
My LG suffers from weak 4g signal. Wifi connection doesn't seem as smooth as with my Note 2. An example is web pages don't load as fast as my Note 2. Lets not even discuss the camera and video playback.
You want to talk about software features? I think not. S-pen? Let me stop there.
LG, nice screen nice chipset. I give it that.

What ever chip it has weather its old or new, the thing performs great. I could show you some quantum scores if you want.
Like I said the lg optimus G has a great chip I won't argue that. But unfortunately a great chip doesn't help with a lot of the other Corky stuff my LG does.
They will get it right with the LG Optimus G pro

The note 2 is cool and all and popular but I didn't want a phablet anymore. It was huge and just wanted to get rid of it ASAP even swap I didn't care. Hardware wise the lgog is king of android IMO. Just think of the performance with JB. LG did great with this phone and I'm very pleased I just love the fit in the hands. I'm sure we will see some bug fixes the phone has only been out a minute. BTW the s3 feels fragile in the hand maybe because of the plastics.

I look at it the opposite as you. I feel like Samsung will get it right with the Note 3. The screen is blurry and blue, its made of crap materials, it has an obsolete processor, hugh bezel and a stupid hardware button.

Sent from my SPH-L900 using XDA Premium HD app
Not sure why you are even comparing the G to the Note 2. The Note 2 is in the Phaglet category and the G is in the Phone category. But, if you do want to compare... the G has better build quality, premium materials, better screen(true rgb and higher pixel count), better processors, better(not bigger or removable) battery and better one handed use. That's a lot of "betters".

I believe you meant" here". And the screenie was an indirect way to say "I'm satisfied with my LGOG, no complaints here." I have nothing negative to say as they're both fine devices in their respective classes.

That is a great review! Thanks! Basically the size and display are the only major factors, for me. Is AMOLED ugly at all? It looks nice in the pictures and videos I see. I like the saturated colors; they are more pleasing to the eye, even if they're not 100% accurate.

There's no need to apologize, my friend. The S4 costs more than both the OG Pro and the G2 in the United States (my country), but that's solely due to popularity.

Indeed, in my country samsung is synonimous to android, so silly.
I went from Gpro to S4 then to G2 and i find that G2 is really worth it.
In comparison to S4, Gpro has a better feeling to it, like u hold a good and solid hardware. S4 is so light and plasticky, feels cheap. S4 took better picture than Gpro but i dont use them much. Personal preference but i go for Gpro again before S4.
