You can't use the built in task manager, it won't show it. System Tuner by 3C has a task manager that will show it.

Ready2Go is basically an initial config wizard that few people use.

Yes. I'm one of those who didn't use it. I believe I may have force stopped it at some point and perhaps it hasn't come back on. Not sure. At any rate it isn't particularly bothersome either, just silly.

It's still a ridiculous statement.
I like WIDGETS, I like Google NOW way better then Siri, I like Chrome and Amazon's FAOTD, I like Google Music, and Google Magazines, and Google Books, I can't stand iTunes.... but if I am not going to hack it: shoulda' got an iPhone.

Damn straight...

Everyone knows stock Roms blow.

You don't even need a NEW ROM when you can get an optimized Stock rom.



But if you want to drive your Ferrari in school zones all day have at it...

Only phones I like from Android are the HTC One X, the Galaxy Samsung III and the Galaxy Samsung Note II. The rest are all ugly and cheap looking.

I have the iPhone 5 and like it but am looking to get the Samsung Note phone, mainly for its size and versatility.

The iPhone's the best looking phone, in my opinion.

Those are pretty much the flagships for the most part. I don't particularly love it, but I'd include the Nexus 4 in their as well. That's still a sight more choice over what you get with stale stagnant apple year after year.

You stated the hardware is inferior. Clearly it is not. You not liking it is one thing but the hardware is better.

Design issues are subjective at best and the camera is a non issue.

And once again. If rooting is such a problem why do you have an android?

Android phones that aren't rooted and running custom ROMs are not even at a fraction of their potential. May as well buy an iPhone...
How do you access data when you are flying from the cloud? And how do you watch movies from your phone when you have a 2gb data limit without ending up with a $400 phone bill. You clearly did not think about this statement before you said it.

Be ready for an anecdotal response.

My data is not capped at 2gb.

And I already stated I have a wireless hard drive that holds serious storage if I am somewhere where there is no cellular coverage which is extremely rare.

And several airlines provide wifi access.

And how many movies do you need to store in a phone? All of them? Please...

You were saying?

Assuming you are incapable of thinking ahead and caching the data you'll actually need during the flight on your device, you would then use the new WiFi service they are putting on a lot of planes these days, thereby giving you access to the cloud, from the clouds, or whatever.

And if you are capable of thinking ahead, you get a Thin Mint.
