@lukus, what phone you got??
- Hombre_Lobo0
im particularly excited with the dual core tegra 2 phones as im hoping it can play the ps1 emulators without ANY slow down.
the current gen android phones do ok, but not quite 100%. im thinking, ff7, ff8 and other great titles on my phone would nice for long journeys :)

Android is not as good as iPhones
- Hombre_Lobo0
What im tempted to do at the moment is sell my iphone 3gs for about £270 and buy a new samsung galaxy S for about the same money. Its impressive how apple products hold their value.
while the galaxy s has been around for quite a while, its still a powerhouse.
anyone rocking any custom roms? geekstyle!

http://androidandme.com/2011/03/…early on in the thread (and two posts up) I said Sony should bring back the multitude of ps1 games, but for mobiles. Logical move really.

- What is exactly wrong with it? It looks great and it's functional.. you can get some nice looking cool widgets down the road and it's 10 times more functional. you don't even have this functionality in iOS.. you just have freakin' icons.Boz
- and it's 10 times more functional. you don't even have this functionality in iOS.. you just have freakin' icons.Boz
- I'm pleased you took it in jest :)

Ok...as posted before I have been running a G1 - the original android phone with Android 1.6. I flashed it and went up to 2.2 but the phone was not fast enough to handle the new operating speed.
I just got a G2 [tmobile is my carrier] off of ebay and am blown away at the speed of the processor and the download speed improvement. It is like night and day.
I will use this phone for a couple weeks before I root it. It comes with about 20 applications that i will never use...a bit annoying.
has anyone here rooted their g2?
- im about to sell my iphone 3gs and buy a samsung galaxy S, very excited, geek boner.Hombre_Lobo
- Hombre_Lobo0
^havent rooted a g2, but i did recently root and then put a custom rom on my gf's android phone.
Was really easy, just followed a guide on modaco forums. The rooting part is crazy simple, download an app, press a button and done, pretty easy!
These seem like the biggest android forums, you'll find a guide in there im sure.

Naïve Question: What is the state of adblocking on android phones? I'm still hmming and hawing between iPhone and Android at this point, but I don't want to see ads on my phone.
- Hombre_Lobo0
just installed gingerbread 2.3.3 on my galaxy S
http://forum.xda-developers.com/…
running very sweet.i_monk, i only see ads in free games and free apps. very unintrusive though.
Make sure you spend an hour or so having a play on a decent android phone before you choose, they are comparable, with pros and cons on both sides.
Also consider a dual core Tegra 2 (nvidia) android phone, the games that are out and are coming out for them look great.
- <^ in other words, no Android browser supports ad blocking for web content?i_monk
- im not too sure dude, i havent noticed any ads in my browsing. using skyfire + dolphin browsers.Hombre_Lobo
