Samsung Galaxy S 2 X - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Folks,
I was curious as to what the difference is between the Galaxy S 2 and the Galaxy S 2 X is ? TELUS in Canada is selling the Galaxy S 2 X. Is it possible to root and put a custom rom on this device similar to what I would do with the Samsung Galaxy S2 ?
Thanks !

I'm not 100%. But I'm pretty sure The S2X is the same SGS2 as the one for T-Mobile, whch is the SGH-T989
Here is the XDA forum for that device

Was known as the Samsung Hercules or SGH-T989.

No such thing.
the 4g version is I guess US only and the lesser price comes with 2 years contract.
Do we know if the SGS II that AT&T will come out with will be the same as this one? I want to buy it but want to wait cause i use my phone to tether for internet. If I can root it the day I buy it I will not wait. Can any confirm that I will be able to root it the day i buy it?

I assume you're referring to the Bell Canada model. It is exactly the same phone. Bell markets HSPA+ as 4G while the rest of the world considers it 3G.

Samsung Epic 2

Hello Everyone!
Just got my new Samsung GalaxyS 2 (White). Sprint phone, Trying to see if there is any oneclick root programs for them?
Wrong forum.
It's no I9100. Better look in the forum for your specific device.

Sprint Galaxy S II = Epic 4g Touch =/= I9100

[Q] SGS2 or Epic 4G???

Which is better Galaxy S2 or Samsung Epic 4G???
I only want the SGA users recommendation not everyones...

It depends what you want.... If you want 4G network then go for Epic 4G but it will bind you in a contract with Sprint. And if you can live with 3G speeds then go for Galaxy S2 as it already has the ICS update rolling out. Epic 4G wud take some time more for the update. Also there is no FM Radio in Epic 4G(but there are many live streaming apps on Play Store.)
The Final decision depends on you if you want quick ICS or 4G speeds
EDIT: In person I would recommend Samsung Galaxy S2 bcoz Epic 4G in the same phone but with CDMA network. Although CDMA network has better signal capacities, it's not got very good coverage everywhere so your roaming may suffer.

Both wrong .
Galaxy 551 -> Galaxy 5 -> Galaxy Ace -> Galaxy Ace Plus -> Galaxy S -> Galaxy Ace 2 -> Galaxy R -> Galaxy W -> Galaxy SII -> Galaxy Note -> Galaxy Tab 7.0+ -> Galaxy Tab 7.7 -> Galaxy Tab 8.something -> Galaxy Tab 9.7 -> Galaxy Tab 10.1
Herpderp Defy.
In my experience I'm usin the ace in Iusacell Network from Mexico and it provides 4g networking but... the same that you read before.. the CDMA has excellent speeds of networking but with the phone signal allways are troubles of coberture and roaming, in question of services thats the reason that I've left behind my motoroi CDMA and buy the Ace, I'n now in 3g Network, the speed is not the most but in signal I've never loosed a call.
My opinion, take the SGS II believe me, the CDMA will give you some minor troubles with phone services.
But... is your Choice!
SGS2. Based on experience.

Its got maximum 16GB Storage(No memory CArd), 1Gig of RAM and 1.2 Ghz Processor. But I would still reccomend going for SGSII bcoz even though bieng of tthe same frequency, Samsung's own Exynos processor is more capable than the chipset in Galaxy Nexus. And the Nexus has got a poor battery Backup.
EDIT: the GPU used in Galaxy NExus has used in the ORginal Galaxy S. So it lacks behind there too. Go for SGS2.

S3, you can live a month with your evo, can't you ?
This phone (GT-I9100) doesn't work on Sprint. If you're asking about the Sprint Galaxy S2 variant, then you're asking about the Epic 4g Touch. Which has a separate forum.

Great advice, if he wants to change carriers.
Since, as I said above, this phone doesn't work on Sprint's network.
If he wants a Galaxy S2 variant that works on Sprint, he wants to look at the Epic 4g Touch.
Thanks for the advice guys, I will wait for S3! As far as sprint goes, they offer a Samsung galaxy S2 on their page. What's the difference?

Hardware. The one Sprint offers is the Epic 4g Touch, (aka SPH-D710) and runs on a CDMA network. That phone has its own separate forum.
THIS phone (GT-I9100) is a GSM phone, and as I've already said, won't run on Sprint's network.
moving on to best smartphone of the year! galaxy s2 is a very wise move mate or better yet wait galaxy s3 but unfortunately release date is still unknown..
