Lol I don't know where he saw the 2nd speaker, hopefully he aint talking about the earpiece. And as in regards to the topic, I doubt it, I mean hopefully with that little chrome grill and stuff they put to it making it look nice and all, also stands for good quality.

I downloaded the one from the market and it works but it seems small. Is it because this phone is narrow?

It's cuz our resolution is much higher than last generation's standard....welcome to the bleeding edge of technology. We pay extra to help iron out the bugs...
...I know, it doesn't make sense.

LoL Makes sense. I've noticed a few apps that are shrunk on our phones, like Speed Test.

if you want a real upgrade go for galaxy s3 ou htc one x
Yes, do it. Do it now

LOL!! Don't be giving this guy false advice...
To the OP:
Don't listen to skmminstones! Stick with your S2! Trust me you're just a bit bored of your S2, that's all. Once you switch the phone for the crappy xperia S. Just after 2 weeks you'll regret that decision, trust me....
Or get something that is actually an upgrade, such as the S3 and One X (As someone previously stated).
That's like suicide. You'll be crying down the line two weeks later.
A real upgrade is S3 or One X

Xperia S is a worse phone overall. Even though it has better screen resolution (worse panel though) and a better camera that's about it.
Good thing is it shoots much better videos in lowlight and does nice photos.
I would say better than S2 by a small margin in that aspect.
Overall I thought it was a really great phone until I actually played with it for a while... It's true. It is a downgrade. I am really happy to have my S2 instead of SXS even though it doesn't have 12mpix and a 720p screen.
Stay with S2 .
Why?
Because I'm here and I'm awesome.
Learn or atleast make an effort to Post in the correct section or gtfo to Xperia s forum

Xperia S is actually a last Gen phone with 12 map camera. Stay away.
i would avoid sony phones as they have started locking bootloaders on their new phone range , if your gonna stay on their rom then its ok.
heres the instructions to unlock
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
Dial *#*#7378423#*#* (or *#*#service#*#*) on your phone. This brings up the service menu.
Go to Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. Find the item for “Bootloader unlock allowed”. If the item is missing, or if its value is “No,” DO NOT continue with the rest of this guide.

Just noticed it as I read it again XD You know when you read something once on a forum then its still isn't enough to actually tell whether he is fking with him or he is serious
So this is what I learned today: Read the question twice!! <---What every teacher says to me coincidentally...
I think the sg3 is too big. The home button is in a bad position too. I played with a HTC one x. It's too big and had a permanent battery. What would I do? I have had to pull the battery out of this sg2 many times.
I think I will be staying with the sg2 for a good while. The HTC one s is the only thing a sort of like now but not enough to switch.

It's working with the front camera right? If yes, then it's possible, I guess.
Sent from my Galaxy S Advance
Yes, it does work with the front Camera, but the front camera of the S Advance is of terrible quality...
Also, smart stay isn't just an app, I think it goes deeper than that..
I agree, it would work very bad because of bad camera resolution

So true, but I would be happy even if it works bad. Getting a GS3 feature to work on a mid-range phone is an accomplishment, I guess. And our front camera is not that bad, if you use it outside in a fine day you'll see it's good enough. But we don't have "fine days" inside our homes So I don't know.

Funny thing, i guess i fixed it when i flash the updated bootloader earlier today...
No sound is coming from the speaker or headsets. No ringing or music etc. Headsets work fine on other devices. I have tried various rom's even which I know were working fine earlier but problem persists in every Rom . Sound works while calling. Headsets are not even detected. I haven't touched the Kernel. What could be wrong?
Tried to blow and clean the headset port. Looks weird, but I have tried, and it works.
