I know he is, that was more of a taunt lol. Because just based on benchmarks this phone blows it out of the water

Thanks guys, I'm still lurking around here! BTW the guy you're talking about that's banned, "Hatememarquez", he'll be back in February. Got a hefty ban for both aliases this time. Even attacked the @tazmaniondvl a few weeks ago, his old tag team partner! LOL. Anyway yeah it's good to be free of the Exhibit but the challenge of finding a ROM that's just right has been just that, quite the challenge. I'm worse now than I ever was with the Exhibit trying all the damn ROMs!

I think you would like the light, its around the price the. exhibit was, but 100 times better, I went from a7000 benchmark to 17500, and it's freaking amazing!

I would if not for the fact there is no development for it and it has a locked bootloader which means it will never get a custom ROM unless it's TW based. But yeah, I've heard a lot of good things about it. Sure beats the Exhibit which unfortunately isn't hard to do as we all know so well. :p

As I recall, AD, it took you quite some time to find just the right rom for the 4G, too. Basically, just as you found the best combo, you left. Regardless, I'm glad you are happy with the S2, though don't come crying to us when the Light gets rooted this spring. Good things come to those who wait.

What is TW-based and why would a locked bootloader make a difference? Don't exploits have to be found to root any phone? If Samsung made this phone essentially unrootable, that's a big middle finger in the face of the entire android raison d'etre....

TW = Touchwiz based, the Samsung stock ROM. Far as the middle finger, yes, that's exactly what users are getting!

    Well it had been an awesome 2 years with this phone, but it is just outdated and lacks speed. My wife and I are switching to the galaxy light, she had an S1. The quadcore makes a difference. And comes stock at 1.4ghz I'll miss this little phone a lot, but its time to move on. I'll still be around to answer questions but not on a regular basis.
