Re: Today I have...

What Galaxy you got ?

You can sell the 4S for about 90% of it's new price.. so if you can buy your galaxy for < 90% of the 4S's price you should of done it, made some cash and get a new Galaxy.
Well I have a 3G Galaxy S Vibrant, and if I didn't need my phone for work every day I would have. I would be rockin a Galaxy S2, damn work.
 
Re: Today I have...

Today I have downloaded the leaked 4.0.1 Android ROM for my phone, and am gonna try it out now.

The new multitasking UI seems to fit in very well witch Touchwiz.

I like Touchwiz 4 better than stock Gingerbread and I can understand why Samsung needs to keep the UI consistent for less tech savvy users however I still wish the ICS update was more stock looking.
 
Re: Today I have...

I never actually got around to installing it on my GS2; there were a lot of complaints about bugs and such since it's an alpha release. Might play around with it for a few days next week.

And apparently the current version of TouchWiz on there is a placeholder for a more developed release to match the ICS UI better.
 
So I finally got around to RMA'ing this video card. Here's the correspondence that has went on between me and XFX support.

[ 11/14/2011 3:14:32 AM] I used this card in the above build and it would freeze up right after I would install the graphics drivers (I tried sever different versions). Upon reboot I would get a Hyper Transport Sync Error occurred on last boot. I replaced the CPU, motherboard, PSU, and RAM as well as formatting the hard drive and reinstalling the OS to try to correct this problem. It was only after I swapped out this graphics card that I was able to finish the build for my customer. I now have a customer who could make use of this type of card so I need to RMA this one for one that is not defective.

[KEVIN_C 11/14/2011 6:54:00 PM] We are sorry to hear that this has happened. Please double check that your serial number is registered correctly. Verify that your Account information (URL here) has your current contact phone number and shipping address that someone will be able to sign for a package (no PO boxes allowed for FedEx shipments) when a product is returned to you, FedEx requires these things when shipping anything in case they have to contact you about delivery, and we can escalate this for RMA evaluation. When we issue an RMA it pulls the address that is in your account information at that time. Updating your account information after the RMA is issued will not update the address that the package is being returned to. Thank you. Kevin

[ 11/15/2011 1:54:13 AM] I have updated my address. The phone number is correct. The serial number is correct as best my eyes can make it out... I don`t know if the fourth digit is a "0" or a "O" but I am guessing a zero. Thanks for your help.

Sorry but I call BS on their diagnosis. I replaced everything before I swapped out the video card... CPU, mobo, PSU, RAM, hard drive. But if they say it is good to go I will take their word for it. maybe it was a conflict with the motherboard I was using or something. A cousin wants to buy it off of me so I will be handling any technical difficulties with the card anyway.
