[Q] purchasing support - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm about to buy a new Android smartphone, since my HD2 digitizer is dying once again.
My choice falls on either a Samsung Galaxy Nexus or Samsung Galaxy S2.
I'm just wondering if someone can help me in understanding any flaws/issues that has been encountered with the Samsung Galaxy S2; what about the battery, the digitizer? ...anything else?
Are you satisfied with the phone? please be sincere.
Thank you in advance.
regards

See, if you get iP5 or S III you still won't get satisfied..
Satisfaction never happens..
Anyways... Go for S III i think... Or Nexus Maybe Cuz its next gen device
..
Peace
Hit Thanks & It will Disappear

Yes HTC ONES/X was an alternative, but I do not like the not replaceable battery.

The latest link you sent me was like a WIKI for this phone but I still can't pinpoint where exactly I should be going to get this phone totally stock. Zedomax thread is waaaaaay to outdated and almost everyone who tried the method posted on his website ran into problems. HTC makes some nice phones but I forgot how UN ROOT friendly they are.
To answer your question: my wife has a friend that is up for a Sprint contract renewal. She's interested in the Evo LTE 4G (which still goes for $200 with a new contract.) So what I'm going to do is GIVE her my phone for free and give her the $$$ to buy the NOTE 2 for me! Win Win!
Now, all I gotta do is unroot this POS so I can get this deal done.

Yeah, I sent him a PM. This is a lot more confusing than I thought it would be.
Yeah, HTC makes things difficult.

Belt Clip? Just the clip?

Anyone know of a belt clip for the S8? I don't use a case (don't judge me) but I do use the belt clip. The S5 and S7 used the same size, but not the S8. I so far have only found case/clip combos.
Thanks!
