GS2 on Sprint? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if the GS2 will be coming to Sprint and if so, when? I just got a NS4G and I'm considering returning it and saving the upgrade for the GS2

i don't think so
if it does come it will be in a very long time with a CDMA band
just like the Nexus 4G that came at the end of the cycle

Rumor is it will be called the Samsung Galaxy Within or Sprint Within and a late July release date seems to be the general consensus.

Well, we're two weeks away from the end of July. Hopefully, there will be some announcement on Monday!

Looks like everyone but the U.S. is getting the Samsung Galaxy S II one way or the other and it seems like future owners have been waiting an eternity to get one. Hopefully Sprint will launch its version of the phone in a matter of weeks as what is believed to be called the Galaxy Within has been allegedly pictured above.
As you can see in the comparison shot we've put together below, the basic lines and what appear to be specifications are quite the same. Give or take a couple of details, you still have your eight-megapixel at the back but this time above the flash --which also seems larger -- instead of its left.
The Sprint logo should clear any doubts of the destination for the Within and the side buttons/rockers seem to match. With its 1.2GHz Exynos CPU coupled with 1GB of RAM, 4.3-inch Super AMOLEDPlus screen and a two-megapixel front facing camera, the Galaxy Within would be the EVO 3D's strongest competitor on Sprint. For all of you out there waiting, it should be coming soon -- late July according to rumors -- and with Android 2.3.4 at that!

Are there two versions of SGS2?

Please find pictures of two SGS2. Left one is from "Meteor Ireland", right one is "Vodafone Ireland". As you can see screen of left one is much better ( more white ), right one is blueish. Touch keys lights are darker on the right one. Are there two versions of SGS2?

Most likely it's related to the country where they have been made. People from my country reported some of the devices made in China have a purple tint, while devices made in Korea are pretty much ok. Here's a photo showing both phones:
on my picture, right (bad) one has note "made by Samsung in Korea" and the left one "made by Samsung" only.

Then i guess it's just random and they let too many flawed devices get out of the factories

This rumor is quite old. No one's seen a tegra 2 yet and i seriously doubt they will in the future.

I'm with Meteor on PAYG i went to get the GS2 on a 12 month contract but they were looking for a €300 deposit so i told them where to go and bought it outright unbranded and unlocked, i didn't think there would be any difference to be honest if anything given Vodafone are more expensive you'd expect them to have the phone direct from Samsung.

Literally strolled into a Gamestop said "Give me the Prime!" and purchased no Preordr

I've had a prime on preorder at newegg since the 28th. I've closely followed the threads and realized that newegg has no clue when deliveries will happen. It has sadden me.
So today while shopping for BS, I walk into a gamespot straight up to a rep. Without saying anything else i say in a robotic voice...."WHERE IS THE PRIME...GIVE ME THE PRIME"
I felt in good spirits and thought it would be funny, yet futile.
What do you know they had been sorting through a delivery and after about 5 minutes waiting another rep comes back with a question.
We have ONE for sale do you want it?
I unexcitedly say sure, I'll take it.
That is my story.

Samsung GT-N8010 Gains WiFi Certification – Could It Be A Successor To The Galaxy Note?
Nice sti currently drive an old 08 WRX myself
Btw Congrats on getting the prime

Just buying the Prime makes for epic stories.
Was this one of the Gamestops that Gamestop.com list as a seller of the Prime?
I live in an area that's surrounded by multiple Gamestops but none were listed on Gamestop.com as a Prime tablet seller, walking into one over the past weekend they didn't know what I was talking about with regards to the Transformer Prime.
I believe it is listed as one of the tablet sellers. The other ones have no clue.
Thanks,
The sti is an 08 with turboback 3in. Can't wait for the snow!
Kind of like my story.I put a preorder for the second wave at gs and yesterday they called me to go and pick up my prime and I preorder on tusday

Ready to drop the Amaze

So, the development has kind of spuddered on the Amaze, and since I could not get S-on to work, I got stuck with the terrible radio on the ICS, and no way to get back to the stock radio.
I think I am ready to leave HTC for a while, too, just want a different look, something besides SENSE. I'm know I am in the Amaze forum, but what phone would you consider getting. Maybe the Samsung Galaxy S II, the Galaxy Nexus, or wait for the Samsung Galaxy S II if I can. I was ready to pull the trigger on the Galaxy Nexus from the Google Play Store, but the slower data kind of bothers me a bit. It is HSPA+ 21, and coming from the Amaze with HSPA+ 42, I'm not sure if I want the decrease. What to do, what to do?

Can you explain "So, the development has kind of spuddered on the Amaze"? Why do you think you need s-off to flash a different radio? If you aren't happy with ICS then find the leaked RUU for gingerbread, rename it and install it the same way you did with ICS..
The hardware of the phones you named is inferior to the amaze, and there are plenty of phones that are better than those-- I am thinking you just aren't doing very good research.
I couldn't get S-off for a while too. Turned out my problem was the wire was too small. You could try a bigger one if you couldn't get it to work.

J/k, but from what I've read a LONG time ago, it'll be pretty much the same.
One developer claimed it'll be impossible. But who knows.

do Verizion phones have ASOP and LTE? I'm too lazy too look, but I'm gonna guess that by now they do

I was under the impression the the Thunderbolt had LTE in AOSP.....maybe not, who knows.
Also, It should help that the GNex is LTE. Given those maybe proprietary blobs (I really don't know how open Nexus code is) if its not, why wouldn't it be in relatively quickly? Yeah it's a different radio, but the interface should be similar across most of Sprints LTE devices.
EDIT: Yes, it seems the Thunderbolt does have LTE working in CM7
Edit 2: VZW's LTE has a removable SIM card for LTE Activation, I assume ours is very similar, with possibly embedded or spoofed SIM. This probably makes it at least easier to get to work because the device doesn't have to handle the authentication the the network, the network handles it.

I am appalled at the total lack of coverage given by the evening echo to our latest British world champion.
I deliberately bought the echo thinking they would give more coverage than one of the nationals but alas NOT one picture and as far as I can tell not one word written about him or how he achieved getting to be world champion.
I do not follow football in any way so I don’t suppose this will be printed in the paper, but considering that today Monday 19-10-09 when I expected to see something there were 6 ? pages covering football related matters.
What I do like and love are motor sports and have been too many places and countries to watch it.
What and who am I talking about, Formula One and the new British World Champion, Jenson Button.
Anyone care to comment??
