Okay guys I wanted to make this thread so anyone can state their opinion without being insulted. This has obviously been a long fought debate and will probably stay that way, but I want you to tell which one you personally think is better.
If you think differently of someone you may quote them and correct them but do not make fun of their thoughts/or insult them.
By posting in this thread you have the assume the right to criticize or be criticized, but not to insult or be insulted.
Example of how it should be written: iOS/Android. I think its better because...
My opinion: Android: I think it is better because it has support for a wide variety of devices, it can be customized to almost any aspect, it is open sourced, and I love the way it looks and feels.
Now it's your turn...

Android is better because we have navigation and flash. I tether for free and i have to have widgets.

Android FTW!
I used to be a hardcore iOS "Apple Fanboy" but then i loosened up and saw that apple has flaws to my first android was the nexus s. and i discovered the power and freedom of android. Ive loved android ever sense!

They are both good. However, phone wise, android kills

I forgot to mention my love of navigation, but remember Adobe has dropped mobile support for flash.

Not only are these threads frowned upon, but there is at least one open about this, and where is WP7 you OSist.

I don't understand why this thread would be frowned upon. It's is just a simple debate. And I am pretty sure there is another thread such as this but has long since died. I am just giving people a chance to voice their opinions. And I didn't include WP7 because this is a debate verses iOS and Android, I didn't want to include all three.

It's frowned upon since the topic of iOS on a mainly Android and Windows forum is what stats pointless flamewars.

Yes this may be a mainly Android and Windows forum but that doesn't mean that every Android user on this forum prefers Android over iOS. I say again, this is just a thread for people to voice their opinion.

Aren't that what most forums are all about? Also peoples opinions tend to lead to flamewars and locked threads.

I prefer Android since it allows for more customization and device choices
But the locked environment of iOS allows for a more stable and problem free experience. They both have their flaws but iOS is better. Android is just to crowded and even though it has choices, alot of manufactures bug down old android with slow phones and give "Android" in general a bad name.

Why do you perfer android over iOS? You are supposed to put that.
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App

This is really not a debate . Android all the way .

I prefer Android over iOS because you, as a user, have the freedom of choice about what you want to do with your device how the GUI should look and even how your entire system is built up, with custom roms, kernels and so on.
Whenever i use an iOS device i feel like I'm sitting in a tiny cage ^^
On the other hand, iOS has some nice advantages, like the cydia, installous app download stuff...

Why Android phones suck?????? I'm speaking for all Androids!

So I was frolicking around on YouTube today.
Search Box reads "Destroying Apple Products"
This came up on the search results.
So I said "Why Android phones suck?????
Ok lets see what this Apple / Windows fanboy has to say?"
Opened it up and his arguments were totally invalid.
Thought I'd post this up here for a good laugh.

I just don't understand the minds of these iSheep!!!!
Just because the pictures pop up on iPhones in the inbox,
doesn't mean that it pops up at the same speed rate.
iPhone has yet to gain 4G access let alone 4G LTE.
What kind of goofy can be ok with using a SlowPhone????
I can turn my phone into an iPhone if I wanted to.
Hell we have iPhone launchers and icon packs.
Hell there's even MIUI that makes the iPhone sh*t bricks
with jealousy.
Why would I want to buy an iPhone and get stick with all the limits.
I don't wanna pay $600 for a stupid limited phone with a tiny screen.
Don't wanna pay that type of money for the iPhone 4 when 4S is right around the corner.
And all these law suits that Apple has dropped.
Soon enough I'm gonna be afraid to go to sleep just in case
Apple has patented my dreams and want to sue me.

He has another video called "Why iOS sucks."
So he's not totally biased, just showing his opinion. And yeah some of his logic is flawed.

I know because he said it at the beginning but if you are going to make an "Why Android phones sucks" video.... at least have valid arguments and at least know what you are talking about. And find better things to complain about.
Android compaints: OH MY PICTURES ARE NOT SHOWING UP IN MY INBOX.... BOO HOO HOO....
IOS complaints: I can't send sh*t through bluetooth, I can't customize anything but my wallpaper, my screen is tiny as hell, global warming, my skinny jeans aren't skinny enough, this ios commercial had the word "android" in it, they aren't playing enough Wacka Flacka on the radio, why is God not answering me?, why isn't Apple releasing iDevices faster I'm bored with my 3 month old IOS device, my mom doesn't turn up the heat enough in the basement I live in, I fell off my skateboard and bruised my elbow, ect.

iOS is better than Android. Have you ever tried to open WSJ using 4G on Android? It's too fast! iOS is much better since i can take a shower and eat breakfast before it loads WSJ. Much better.

LOL, i remember when i had the 3GS and i saw a man in a dress and on a kid bike on the street, so i wanted to write a FB status about it. Didn't happen. My 3GS REFUSED to connect to the internet so i had to write it down as a note and post it later on my computer. Thanks for revolutionizing the way we use tech Apple

I know some iSheep that was pretty impressed at the fact that my tablet (Acer A500) has a full size USB port on it. But he said to me this: "this would've been a pretty ****ty device if it didn't have the USB port, huh?" I almost punched him in the face. So close... anyway, what I am saying is that, these iSheep are obviously under some kind of spell. I mean any healthy mind would prefer a device that,
1. Has HD screen
2. Plays every video format
3. Has a expandable storage
4. Has full size USB and is capable of mounting external HDDs
5. Has micro USB port, can be mounted on PC for easy file transfer
6. Is less than half the price of a device that,
1. Does none of above,
2. Has a crApple logo on it

[The Official] VETS Lounge/Resource Center

I created this thread as a way to thank our VETS who are, or have served in a war. (any war). Please show your gratitude here. VETS are also welcome to introduce themselves, and share their stories. ALL military persons are welcome here! Share your stories and have fun. :thumbup: Hooo-Rahh!!
Rules: There is only one rule...Be Respectful. Do not engage in political views, personal debates, or share your opinions about the war, or what our VETS are doing, or have done. This thread is strictly for VETS to introduce themselves, share their stories, and for civilians to show their support and gratitude for their sacrifice and dedication for our country. This rule will be strictly enforced, so please be mindful of this when posting. Thank You.
I'll start...
While I'm not a VET myself, I volunteer for the US Department of Veteran's Affairs as an activities coordinator, where I create activities and companionship for WWII, Korean, Vietnam, and Desert Storm VETS. Most of them are elderly, and facing mortality, suffering from moderate to severe depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Most of them are lonely, so I create activities that cater to their specific wants and needs, which in turn stimulates happiness, and an improved quality of life in their latter years. My wife also works there as a Medical Support Assistant, where she works in the urgent care dept. assisting VETS by addressing health issues, and providing them with the care they so desperately need. We both are very proud of what we do, because it's our way of giving back to those who have lost so much...

OIF veteran
Former Marine SGT. servedmy tour of duty as a reservist dployed to Iraq in 2007-2008. all in all it was an awesome experience. Deployed with some very amazing people. Everyone i left with came home happy and healthy. I understand some others are not as lucky and my heart goes out to them and thier families.
One thing i have never asked for and never will ask for is a thank you. But to anyone feeling as if they need to do so, i will tell you it was a pleasure and if things in my life hadnt changed significantly for me after my return home I would still be humbly serving our nation.
Semper Fi
Yeah its a Marine thing but its also a life thing.
Also another note. I was a weather observer a profession which is now phased out. Now they only have weather forcasters and I was an air wing Marine on Al Asad air base. So my experiences may vary greatly from the larger group of my brothers and sisters who also served.

Hats off to all of the other vets here and the OP!!
The war I was in was nothing compared to what other vets have endured.

Well what do we have here....
First, OP thx for this thread....as a Marine who served 20+ yrs on active duty. Always finding a fellow jarhead in these XDA threads is Good to Go! Been retired now for 5 yrs...
Keep in mind, in today's military it is a purple world. Meaning joint services and even with the UN peace keepers.
I have had the Honor of serving and spilling the same blood with almost all branches of the Military.
Semper Fi and my deepest respect to all who have and still wearing the uniform. Those individuals know what it takes...
I get asked would I go back to active duty if the USMC asked....in a heart beat, without hesitation.
Thx again Danny for your support to us Veterans and as always Good to Go!

Lol. But I mean by that is that you can't play multiplayer. If you get a CD, most new games have a multiplayer pass. Once you use that pass no one else can use it and your friend would have to buy one.

If the nexus can have its own official hangout, what is stopping the Xbox? I mean what if people just want to talk about one specific thing. I understand if the mods want to close this thread, but dang. There are some rude people here. You would think some people could act more mature around here.

Well your intent is understood.
Games\game consoles are certainly a valid subject and very popular.
Those other threads were moved out of their original spots in the device forums by select moderators in order to keep them in place versus deletion.
Starting device or game specific threads in Off Topic outside of the already running game thread usually means a lock.
There's just absolutely no reason to start another gaming or device specific thread.
Moderating OT is already a nightmare...why make things even more difficult for the moderation team?
It may even be a good idea to PM a mod before starting a thread to get a feel for what may or may not be appropriate.
Again as stated there's already a game\gamer thread going.
Hopefully my view and few small points may be cause for thinking before posting.

Thank you for an intelligent response. I will pm them next time. I am sorry for causing any trouble or any more work for people. I just thought it would be nice to see some other Xbox players. Didn't mean to be an inconvenience.

You have a good attitude.
Didn't mean to point to you as an inconvenience my friend.
Stick around awhile...OT can be fun and informative.

Advice about beating speeding tickets

So in the past week I got two speeding tickets. Coincidentally, both were exactly the same speed with the same limit. In New York I hear there about 8 points each of you're 20 over the limit. Also I heard I may possibly get my license suspended which I need for work. So any suggestions on how to beat the tickets or points is most welcome. Thanks

Either get an attorney, talk to the the prosecutor & make a deal or do the speed limit from now on

Other than going back in time and not driving like a douche, the only thing I can suggest is pay up and stop speeding.

i dun think there's much u can do
You can drive on the AutoBahn highway
No speed limits, appropriate for you
Ow wait u live in the US :sly:

Driving like a douche? Lol because you knew exactly how I was driving. Why did I even post here with a bunch of twelve year olds who probably don't even have a license.
But thanks to not a single one of you for even posting something relevant
Also forgot to mention that it's been almost a decade since I got a speeding ticket

The Law is there for a reason

You must be blind, because I posted a useful tip. We aren't a law firm (though I work in one), lead foot. Don't be a jerk because you didn't get some "here's how to get out of tickets without a paying a cent for your faults" tip. Don't insult everyone else for your mistake. Duces.

This is a huge forum and who's to say there isn't anyone who is a lawyer or something of that nature? Ooo yea "best answer Lmao/thread". Very useful,I agree.
And guess what, there are little loop holes to beat the points on tickets like these. But since yous are a bunch of kiddies, you want to post non sense instead of something that will help. I have a lead foot? Great, thanks mom. Doesn't help

You absolutely are blind, because I posted twice. Look again for my real answer. We actually abide by the law, so yes, lead foot is appropriate for you. On top of that, you apparently "haven't gotten a ticket in a decade" which you must also be suspended or near suspended for not taking care of it much sooner. To sum it all up for you, you came to a development site for legal advice & you're the one acting like a child not getting the answers you want. You're welcome, son.

What on earth are you talking about with my decade comment. I've been driving for twelve years, haven't gotten a speeding ticket since ten years ago? What are you blabbing about with this suspension non sense? Learn to read. And yes I'm looking for answers that are relevant, not people pretending to know what they are talking about or people throwing childish comments around.

Anything else you have to say? I gave you legit advice. Get a lawyer or talk to the prosecutor. You need to get your eyes & head checked. You don't even know what you say. Pretend to know what we're talking about? That's cute. Welcome to XDA.

I post thread. Receive nothing but negative and random comments about my driving but I need my head checked. And I believe you still need to learn to read because nothing you quoted had anything to do with my license being suspended or near suspended YET. Try again though

You need to learn, because you don't edit your own previous post & you quote yourself to add more (within the quote). You're ignorance level is ridiculous. You either posted a bunch of bs or don't even know what you're talking about, anymore. I mentioned the suspension thing, because you said you got two speeding tickets in two weeks, but you also said you haven't received a ticket in a decade. That is all. Get your head checked & call a damn attorney. Nobody really can answer your question because all states, counties, cities are different. Judges, clerks & prosecutors all think differently & will appoint you differently. One will give a slap on the wrist or somebody else will charge you for 100% profit with points without seeing a judge. This is a development site, not a legal advisory (800) hotline. Meanwhile you're stomping your little feet not getting any answers you want, you could've googled or called an attorney by now for real legal advice.

Lol hit a nerve I see that you're going over board about hitting the quote button instead of edit lol. And what I posted that was bull****? I received two tickets this week? I believe my picture proves other wise.
And lastly, this is general discussion where you get to talk about things aside from phones and development. Can you read "general discussion"? You know what that means right? But enjoy your temper tantrum you mighty keyboard warrior. And here's an idea, if you don't want to partake in conversations outside of development, don't reply to threads in the general discussion section
