Funny thing is, you are probably right considering many of the Android thread regulars are tech savvy and competent in Linux

Same here. Guess I compensate it with knowing a lot about other.. tech stuff. Yes. A lot.

I'm fairly Linux savvy and I know iOS users who know a lot more about Linux than I do. That's a stupid generalization.

What do you mean by "broken"?

As in, what's the problem with it?

Stuck at spash screen, a problem that can be quite easy to fix.

That's quite a good deal seeing as it's easy to fix.

"As already stated, Rooting and Jailbreaking are essentially the same things, Jailbreaking is the iPhone users' word for what Android users call Rooting. Rooting is when you gain "Root" access to the phone giving you the power to do anything you want to it (it comes from the Unix Root User, essentially the Unix equivalent to the Windows Administrator account). Normally you're prevented from being Root for your own good, as it's very easy to break your phone once you have root access, and quite hard to break it without."

any better?

Okay, can you "change the entire ROM" after jailbreaking?
Can you change your MAC address after jailbreaking?
Can you run an ENTIRELY DIFFERENT OS after jailbreaking?
Can you adjust the sensitivity with or without jailbreaking?

I don't have any iOS device but I would like to ask that.

Stop talking please, you're being just as stupid as this McGee guy

I just tried the PRADA dummy phone model, and my GOD ITS FUCKING SEXY. Even more so than the nexus or my S2. Even the UI looked great. But the fucking design makes me orgasm!

Alright then, and I won't do it in the Apple threads either. And not make android users look bad.

Oh please all I do is capture wifi packets, look at what people are doing, borrow their wifi, and kick people off their own wifi.

And I want to stick backtrack 5 on my phone one day.

ASUS just confirmed the release of ICS for the Transformer TF101 for tomorrow (in north america at least) in case any other owners haven't heard.

Also I've been running on 1% battery power on my SGS2 for a surprisingly long time.

Annoying being an understatement.

Droid2 arrived.

Rooting and flashing has certainly got more complicated since the good old windows mobile days.

I wish there was a glossary or something so I could find out what SBFs are and what BL=3 means.

Why would anyone want a fully fledged linux distro on a 3" screen?

Besides, it makes you sound like a skiddie. Wait, you are probably are a skiddy.

So the Motorola CEO got replaced with a guy from Google. http://techcrunch.com/2012/02/23/vet...-mobility-ceo/

You're being called stupid because all you do is come here, ask for advice then turn down advices and act as if you knew more than any of us here, despite you being the one new to Android devices.

That's what I "do" but it obviously doesn't mean I do it 24/7. All for "educational purposes". I usually do it when I stress test wifi routers (i.e. schools, cafes, homes, friends house, etc. WITH their permission, for the sake for better Computer Security. You can call a Comp Security Analysis or anyone in Computer Security a hacker all you want, because it's true)

[Sam Za Nemesis]

Google is close to picking up a new CEO for Motorola, Good Riddance.

I would be a good candidade, I am better qualified than Sanjay Jha

[garychencool]

I feel like there's going to be another shitstorm inbound with iOS and Android here featuring McGee who seems to not take account the time and effort of the regular members on this thread providing McGee with the answers to his/her questions regarding the Android Operating System and what is rooting compared to jailbreaking which isn't really a comparison, and other questions regarding Android compared to iOS.

TL;DR McGee is ignoring the answers and/or not understanding it and still asks questions.

Gawd. Flashing Omega didn't fix the messaging problems. Then again, when I press and hold the message, choose edit and just send it again, it seems to send it. I wonder if it's a problem with Handcent SMS.
