Database Develop

To keep or not to keep??

Just got the LG Thrill but forums seem dead, and not a lot being developed for this phone should I go ahead and return it and get something else?
Feedback would be greatly appreciated..

Do you like the phone? That should answer your question on whether to return it or not.

First off, this question should be in the general section as there is no "Development" going on in it.
Second, Overall, the Thrill is a great phone with Amazing potential when Gingerbread is finally released. When ICS is released, even better. I still feel that when Gingerbread hits, there will be a lot more development going on as no one wants to develop for Eclair since it will be updated in less than a month (hopefully).
With the tri-dual technology, this thing could demolish the SGS2 if given the correct software.
Yes, more development is going on over in the SGS2 forums, so you have a tough decision to make my friend.

Ya I'm a flashaholic, so seeing this forum without very much development on roms is the only thing making me second guess my purchase, the phone itself on the other hand is a very nice piece of machinery...i mean i love the phone even in its stock form...but like i said im a flashaholic and love just tinkering with my phone...not a developer at all : / though I wish i were. I'm coming from a Mytouch 4G which I had sense 3.5 Android 2.3.5...so its just a whole new world to me I guess..

Pretty clear that you haven't read much about rooting, so do that and ask again next week.

I think you misunderstand me quite a bit. I know plenty about rooting. This has nothing to do with rooting. ( i assume your referring to permission denied error) im not a noob. This error occurs in conjunction with terminal emulator saying the ubuntu img is corrupted. Its not. Anyways i was just looking for confirmation to see if anyone had actually got ubuntu for android working on n7000 and any advice they might have with this issue im running into

Oooh! Sorry about that then! Your post is a little hard to understand. I haven't tried to put Ubuntu on my Note, so i can't really help you. Hopefully someone that has done it will help you

its all good thank you though! im really surprised this isnt more widespread. i had to actually go looking for the idea of putting a desktop OS on an android phone in google to find it. i figured the CM team and well heck everyone would be all over this. imagine replacing your laptop/desktop with just your phone. you dock your phone and poof ubuntu is up on your monitor. the true mobile desktop.
EDIT: not to mention your phone would be charging on this dock as you use it....GENIUS! and imagine if everyone had this dock solution, you could use your phone at any of your friends/ families/ schools/ work/ etc...

Buddy, I 2 m trying 2 do so for last 5 months... But no success yet... M not demoralising u but there is no way you can run ubuntu smoothly on SGN

Fyi, supposedly, s2 sucks, meizu dual core is Bette

I'm basically being ganged up by two meizu owners trying to get rid of their phone, laughing because they think it's so much Bette than anything, even as good as the s3 and note. Supposedly the galaxy s2 is horrible... Lol

People are such dicks. And I'm talking about the replies on this thread, not the meizu owners. I've never handles a meizu phone but I've heard plenty of good things about them, but this sounds like a blind fanboy argument. The GS2 is still great even though we have the GS2 runt but at this point there are a lot of phones that are better than the t989. It would help if you got what meizu model they have lol.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

Mx 2 core was the model.

http://m.engadget.com/2011/12/15/meizu-mx-review/
Well after reading this review I'm surprised by the Meizu MX 2 core. Its got the exynos 4210/Mali 400 SoC we wish we had in the t989, a higher Res screen, better build quality. As far as I can see the t989 only wins at camera quality (barely..), a bigger screen with better picture quality and an SD card expansion, and of course dev support. I'd say both have pros and cons but are essentially on par.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

Well said, although I believe personally the super amoled plus display makes up for the resolution, the meizu has the same resolution as the HTC sensation for example on a basic 4 inch screen though.

This is a forum. People are free to discuss and debate on topics. Unless your definition of a forum like xda is a place to go download free **** other people pour their lives into to your phone without contributing and trolling other peoples posts. No wonder TDJ left. This place and its members are full of itself. I don't get it. It wasn't nearly as bad as this 3-5 years ago.
Don't care? Don't comment. You can bet that we don't care about you either.

No, because I don't need someone else's approval to like/dislike a phone.
You say this is a forum and is open to discussion and opinion... I am sharing my opinion and you guys don't like it. It's like you guys are just fishing for a T989 circlejerk on a T989 forum.

Don't ever feel the need to defend your personal preferences, it's a loser's game.
If you want to be able to argue that you have the world's best smartphone at any given time plan on upgrading a few times per year.

I think the problem stemmed from you just making a thread with a statement in it. You didn't ask any question and it would have been like me posting "I had a brown cat once, it was awesome" and then getting all *****y because people didn't assume I wanted a philosophical debate on why brown cats are superior to other cats.
After clearing it up by actually asking for feedback I think it was just people being snooty.
I haven't heard anything about those phones though. I might have to look up some reviews.

Becoming a tech journalist

As a child reading Nintendo Power (R.I.P) I always had thoughts of journalism. Now I have more of a interest in tech other than video games. I really want to give this a try. I would love to write about android and other tech maybe even back to video games . My only issue is I don't know where to start or what a lot of people want in written reviews and editorials. So my question is does anyone have any tips to get started. I have my own word press and I'm practicing writing the feed back would be great. I would be thankful for any help and hopefully I can get someone from the site to give me a few pointers
