Wow... xda senior members (even mods) cant "think" , what I wz up to...
If being spoon fed iz what "necessary" , to get ppl understand you, here is it...
My friends dad iz a dealer for sammy here in Mumbai, India.
He says that they loose 8 handsets in every 50 on an avg. Coz shopkeepers claim that some prefer HTC or Sony over Samsung, coz Samsung phones look ugly when placed between these two...
These ppl are not before specs to the extent that they can compromise on looks...
He says Samsung approximately keeps a margin of 7000-8000 INR on each headset in the first few months of launch...
Number is this big in just my city...
Come to the terms with other parts of the world and the money involved (loss) is considerable....
At the same time there's absolutely no restrictions on it to maintain the form factor....
Still its up bearing the loss with the strategy...
What I meant with the post wz , can you guys figure out the future plans..?
(Not asking anymore, already got my answer, from two users and a mod..)
What I guess iz that it has planned a change in design, and when it would release it wld create a new vibe...
That wld probably happen when the series wld start loosing it's hold on buyers...
To mod: posting my previous one in general wld have been inappropriate, coz it has noting to do with android..
close this thread too, if u still feel it isn't worth a talk....
Bottom thing wz my signature made in xda premium app...

If u understand english in the way guys at gsmarena say.
" Design and handling
The Galaxy S4's design is what's changed the least when compared to the Galaxy S III. The smartphone uses the same Hyperglazed finish, on account of which the predecessor was bashed for feeling like a plastic toy rather than a proper flagship. And the Galaxy S4 will most likely receive the same criticism. After all, it doesn't come anywhere near the premium feel of a Sony Xperia Z, let alone the HTC One. "

Lol. Dont do that. Just ask them to ban Texas Intruments. Then LG OB Has Quad Core A5X. That way we will have a godly android phone with gay support from Apple

I don't get it. Someone can explain that?
absolutely absurd and unneeded
lemme get this straight....we all are disappointed with what happened.
u can blame LG, u can curse TI, but that won't change anything.
this is xda, don't open a thread to cry and curse here ...instead, stand up to what we got, if you got skills, help FOP out. if not, enjoy what you got.
and BTW, the proper notion and practice of all OEM's is supporting a cell for 1 year and for 1 OS upgrade.
since, LG has done both, u really cannot whine about it.
if you want to curse LG, TI, Hades, whosoever, do it in the ICS thread.
this thread will not do ANYTHING (admit it, u officially wanted this hate thread) except making people pour here.
please don't get me wrong, am not trying to pick up on you, but the unnecessary whining is not gonna win us anything. will LG give us the update following the hate comments?? NO!!!! then what's the use??
also, note HTC actually came up with the reason as to why it didn't update the desire HD. though LG might not have the same reason for the update, but it could well have led to the same consequence if LG would have started (if at all) working on our ICS upgrade.
our only hope is TI updatign 3630 and FOP getting the ICS up. let's hope and wish them luck.
regards,
achyut.
P.S. - if you find my post derogatory to your thread, PM me, i'll take it down. thank you.
i totally agree with achyut,
the last months i've seen very childish reactions to LG, not only here but the whole www. (i'm not refering to this topic but in general)
people complaining and over reacting.. not satisfied? just throw away your phone and buy something else.
lg is giving good phones with really good prices.. lg isn't indeed perfect but can you expect a perfect phone for the money you paid?
i'm a very satisfied user, we maybe don't get official ics but who cares??
i get the feeling that a manufacturer is succesfull if it releases new android updates very soon.. if it's not? it's calles the worst manufacturer in the world...
the way i see it:
i got a nice looking phone with good hardware for a very good price.
the great dev's here helped me to upgrade my OB with very good custom roms.
here's atleast one satisfied user!
hmm
but tell me why when all other company can release ice for they phones even now phone that cost half the price of OB
brands that are not very will known are able to release ice on hardware much lower the black can get ice to work smoothly
the Lack of will from Lg to work on Updates is what driving me mad
i will any ways go for FOP when its stable a bit more but why let LG get way Scot free they should know how many its customers dislike them
Actually, I'll prefer staying on Gingerbread than to have a sluggish ICS phone. There are many people complaining because when they got ICS on their phones, it got very slow and the performance is mostly choppy. So, we should be happy LG brought us gingerbread, though unfinished. We could always tweak it to its limits and all be happy

how do you know it's a lack of will? we all know its hard to run a business in these financial hard times.. for example samsung is still selling good so they will have the funds to keep going on with support and development.

Apple copied LG phones' design... I guess LG should ban Apple... LG is even providing their Retina display screens to Apples' iDevices.
But yeah.. LG is not made of only phone manufacturing...
Cursing companies is stupid.

Only one question - Is Samsung providing ICS for Galaxy S & SL Having almost same Specs.and one of the highest sold Android Phone ?
Apple cant Ban LG Phones Bcoz LG is not copycat Co. like others. They already launched PRADA first full touch screen ( Capacitive ) phone before the birth of first iphone. LG is one of main parts supplier to Apple.

No point in complaining about this, really. The decision has been made. Time to move on.

Lol apple... anyways I've only used LG apple and blackberry and I had bad experiences with all of em. My next phone will be a samsung, which i think is one of the top brands
Apple is clearly better but i don't like at all...
i go for goolephones and samsung..
With all the Samsung flagship phone's coming in almost the same design , I guess its trying to minimize the discriminating factor among its users.....
I mean if u see a pic of someone posing with there S3 or S4 in front of the mirror, it wld b difficult to distinguish between the two (*phones*)....
Unless you are good at it, but 90% of em wld find it difficult...
Same with most of others high end phones of the brand...
This iz exactly what Apple has been up with from the very start....
Two giants and a lot of similarities...

Say it, Don't spray it.
It's not often that a thread can be created that can't even fit into Off Topic, I mean there's a thread here for dudes that like ponies, and a thread for how to root your toaster...but this is one of those threads that just doesn't fit
(Also OP, you can't get thanks in Off Topic..FYI)

I hate when people are ignorant. When they think a solution to a problem is the buy a brand. It seems that brands are everything. When someone drops their phone in water people say "You should have bought a Sony" without even specifically tell which type of Sony device. Or when someone complains that their phone is to small they say " My Samsung is perfect for the size" without saying which type of Samsung device. It just got me thinking how powerful brands are. Share your own experience of Brands being used in place of actual products.

Hey all, I recently bought the Nexus 5. The first handset I had to return due to screen hardware problems. The second is in fully working order. I am however not adjusting to the Nexus very well. It does not feel premium and its got glitches and bugs that are most annoying (Noise cancellation microphone cancelling out my own voice, for example..) I have just ordered the Z1 as I had the Xperia J and loved it before moving to the N5, despite it being slow and old it worked and made calls (lols). Is the Z1 problem free?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
1) Thanks for the useful title, I didn't know what phone this forum was for
2) wrong section
3) If you really wanted to know if it was problem free do you not think it would be better to ask before ordering it
4) All the information about any "problems" are all in the general or Q&A section, just give them a read.
I have genuinely thanked you for your troll post as it made me laugh.

There are no real 'problems' perse. The software is pretty much bug-free. Only big thing I can think of that needs improvement is Superior Auto mode on the camera. Other that there are some hardware stuff that cant be changed (viewing angles).
Thank you for your reply. I'm not too worried about viewing angles. I know it annoys a lot of people on a range of devices but to be honest it has never bothered me. If that's the only hardware thing then I'm not worried. The Nexus 5 has quite a few and I'm just not wanting the same hassle. I already ordered the Z1 as I knew if there were problems, being a Sony device then they would only be mild.

Try going first to the Sony mobile forum talk.sonymobile.com and see for yourself, then decide again whether you will get the z1 or not.
I don't know, I saw that phone and I take ti, now I have "mild" problems but for me they are not mild.

offP: Dont take serious about that guy gregbradley. he thinks he is the father of xperia phones. encouraging people, disrespecting people etc..
really an annoying guy. you can see all his posts, then u can understand his mentality. this is a forum for helping, studying etc.. some guyz like gregbradly only making this forum unstable. and he thinks he is a bighead. i hope xda review his posts and cancel his title " Recognized Contributor " or ban him.. dont care abt him.
Anyways, We cannot say Xperia Z1 is problems free.. No phones are 100% perfect, so Z1?? Some common issues on Z1 are, Display yellow tint (not all the phones, but some), touchscreen, lil low sound, bootloader unlock .. all can be fixed.. even bootloader problem if you take a backup of TA before unlock the bootloader.. so dont worry about anything,. just buy and experience the premium device.. you can see the fixes on this Z1 forum.. By the way the viewing angles are not an issue.. in my phone angles are pretty good.. Best of luck.
Thank you Azam. Your advise has been helpful. I now have to choose between my Note 3 and my Z1 when the Z1 arrives in an hour.

Have you seen what he has commented on recently, and what I too have seen starting to overflow the forums since 2012.
Stupid questions!
I'm talking particularly about those who come in an registers as member just to start a new thread to write or start bickering about something they don't understand.
At the same time there is a thread two inches down that explaines it all.
You can't expect every skilled person in here to make a 1000 word essay everytime someone asks how to get in recovery etc.
Someone needs to be told that they actually have to put in work to get what they want.
In this day and age where the internet containes so much, it boggles my mind that they don't even know how to use keywords on google.
Yet they don't even think twice before jumping in and bricking their expensive device, ignoring all warnings in the process.
It is nice that with alot of members, developers has a bigger audience to test their stuff and get feedback.
There are of course many more advantages, but I'm not going to name them all.
The members I'm thinking of are quite easy to spot. You can see they haven't invested any time here or contributed/participated.
They just come in frustrated, questioning and swearing over what a bad buy, should never have trusted this company etc etc.
To feature some experiences and such I think is quite ok, especially in accessories and apps.
There isn't exactly a shortage of android forums, why can't they share their feelings there?
xdaDEVELOPERS anyone?
I'm not trying to give the impression that I'm a developer, and I am thankful for being allowed here at all.
But I do try to read up on stuff, so as to save the time of those poor souls who actually bothers to help the people who don't want to help themselves.
Just wanted to say that I have received my Z1 and straight away I can see the quality compared to my Nexus 5 and Note 3 is amazing. Such a good solid build that fits well in my hand. Noticed the yellow tint on certain webpages people have talked about but as the screen is capable of showing white pixels, I'm guessing this is a software bug that will eventually be ironed out. And if not, its not something that would bother me.

Kindly test also if you have the touchscreen problem.. I think that the yellow tint and touchscreen problem dont co-exist. You will have either one of them or a black screen or overheat OR a perfectly working Z1
