sorry for bad quality. front is normal

That's nice logo. I like it.

The finish looks different too (it's normally got black circles on the back too).. It might be a fake.. Check what firmware it says is installed under the about firmware.. It could also just be something dodgy with the carrier or french laws (or no market in france).. But double check the firmware..

Wow that certainly looks nicer than with Google text.

firmware : 2.1-update1
PDA : i9000xxjf3
csc : i9000oxajf3
yes its all things high quality and tiny circeles in back is as normal .

Looks good to me maybe it's a newer back cover? I would prefer that to mine with big Google writing and Samsung at the bottom. At least it doesn't have vodafone written all over it.

I don't have Google or Android on the back just Galaxy S.
If someone can find me one with the Android logo I would be happy to pay for it.

The photo is kind easy to shop though. Pure black around the logo. Suspicious...

The only 2 owners with this backing so far are from Iran and Dubai so it may be a Middle East variant.
Either way I think it's a pretty cool back, mainly because it's different although I would have preferred the Android logo and the Galaxy S logo on the back rather than Samsung.

perhaps new version may shipped with Froyo logo at the back.

(What's going on?)2X(white) is on sale with 2.3 in HK!!!!!

(What's going on?)2X(white) is on sale with 2.3 in HK!!!!!
I doubt that LG intent to hold the upgrade for black, 2X(black color) in order to boost the sales for 2X(white)

I'm pretty sure is a mistake of the shop. Plus that picture on the phone looks like froyo

Most likely thats froyo. Looking at the weather widget, which is the older version, contrary to the latest one present in the GB leaks.

http://www.elgiganten.dk/product/mo...GP990WHITE/lg-optimus-2x-p990-smartphone-hvid here another white one with 2.3

http://www.elgiganten.se/product/mo...LGP990WHITE/lg-optimus-2x-p990-smartphone-vit in Sweden. Say's 2.3.
If this is true, i wonder if they changed any hardware inside or was it just the colour ?

Well, I guess in a glance the specs are kinda similar, though the sgs2 has twice the ram and internal, better front and main camera(quality, though might be software) also exynos and super amoled seems to make for much better battery life.
Anyone know why NFC is optional in SGS2? Are there two different versions?

It looks so good.
You can now get a white digitizer from ebay for 60 backs.
I bet in the next few days we will be able to get the battery cover aswell. So actually u can turn ur 2x into white for like 80 backs : )

God this trend about the color white. It's not just for phones, cars to even coffee mugs are supposedly cooler when it's clad in white color. RIM releases the black(irony) blackberries first because people(men and women) would prefer the white ones. Some people even go so far as to trade-'up' to a white one of the same model. And where I live they're good $20 more expensive too, of course you'll spend quite a bit more trading up to a new phone. But that doesn't seem to be a problem for a lot of people.
This is a trend, white is the new black, next couple years it will be the other way around.

Thats sounds awesome, this means that op2x has a bigger chance to get ICS now than before

If someone's got one and confirmed it as 2.3, why didn't they dump the ROM?

Newest photo's Nexus 4 spot in The Netherlands

Hi guys,
I thought you would find this interesting. There are 4 new photo's spotted by someone who shot them in a Media Markt/Saturn somewhere in The Netherlands. I found this on a Dutch site called Androidworld. Here are the photo's:

As you can see, this lucky guy managed to get and use the Nexus already. Discuss!

Probably a store manager who demo'ed it to some employees. There are additional apps, which shows at least a decent amount of time with the device. Perhaps someone carrying it around as a teaching tool?
I'm hoping it's there already though. I can't imagine it would be too difficult to go there (Heerhugowaard) and snoop around with some of the more knowledgeable-looking employees.

On my monitor it doesn't look that black, compared to the bezel. The Gnex in that sort of lighting would appear ink black.

I've heard this is the best screen for smartphones ever (on the optimus G, I guess its the same one..). So it should be amazing on blacks, whites, and everything in the middle. Oh, and super bright too!

Damn, it does indeed look like an AMOLED in terms of contrast!

Check out this table and see for yourself. It's definitely not capable of showing true black, but that was to be expected. The Nex4 does indeed sport the same screen as the [scratch Gnex, stupid me] Optimus G.
Edit: ^

Remember though, LCD screens will be blacker in light areas, but in a dark room it will show that off black we see, more like grey.

On the second photo, there's a folder named 'LG' on the homescreen. That's not bloatware is it??

Is that a typo? Surely the Nex4 is nothing like the Gnex. I, for one, will glad to see something similar to the One X, which many declare has the best screen of any smartphone.

Every Samsung Logo from 2015 and newer uses the Second one, which is not this smart S anymore. As you say, it is just a normal boring letter.

You must have different bacon cooking techniques to me. I generally add about 3-4x extra serves in, and share some, or risk dying of every possible heart disease known to man.
Come to think of it, explains why I'm so popular when I'm cooking........

I suspect we have different cooking techniques in general. Mainly, you have a technique and I burn the place down by even so much as looking at the stove. :laugh:
My firealarm goes off if I even so much as consider cooking anything. Not kidding, it went off when I grabbed my toaster. It wasn't even plugged in yet. :silly: Either I'm a terrible cook (I am), or that thing simply doesn't trust me with anything flammable. It has a point, I managed to set fire to a skillet. Filled with water. On an electric stove. :angel:

Logo Comparrison
View attachment 3488082

The first one.

*Does not care

Second logo is better. It fits in better with the newer Samsung design language. Samsung needed to unify the Galaxy brand with both their S series and their Note series so I can definitely understand why they moved away from the first S.

The second is better.

Which phone do you use right now?

Hi friends, I just wondering which phone do you use now? The phone I am using is Apple iPhone 4S, it is very good. And what about yours?

Alcatel

I have iPhone 4S too, I think the only trouble is the version of operating system is low, so some of the apps can not be installed. And I don't wanna upgrade the system.

Yes, the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini Black Edition GT-I9195 has a 4.3-inch display, I also think it is a little bit small. I think 5.0-inch smartphone is perfect, and most of the phones have that size.
