IOS VS ANDROID

[cabbiel0ver19]

I prefer Android phones just because you don't have to buy a new one to get a major update lol





Globalization is the key to success. We have it, we just don't know what door it unlocks.

IOS is best , I have heard that only  . I dont have any hands on experience. I have android and used it much , I like it all the way.

[ObscureBean]

I have both IOS and Android devices and I have to say I much prefer IOS. I like Android but there are a lot of little things about IOS that add up to a smoother experience. It's only now with Lollipop that Android is starting to catch up a bit and I'm talking about stuff that Apple already had like 4 years ago. Also I like the Appstore a lot better than Google Play. Apps never go free on Google Play whereas on the Appstore you get dozens of premium apps everyday that go totally free for short periods of time. Seriously, over the years I've accumulated hundreds of dollars worth of paid apps legally   
And I believe that's one of the reasons there is so much piracy on Android, because they never give out anything for free.

Apple only allows updates if the phone can handle it, try to put in IOS 7 on an iphone 4. Apple cares about user experience actually.

My fathers Samsung is auto updating and becoming slow and un-usable with every update

Was an iphone user for the longest time but recently switched to android and doubt I'll be going back. I liked ios for the most part but they restrict you far too much so had to change.

i just use android for hacks and mods

You can mod IOS too, just jailbreak it

I think android modding is far more flexible than iOS. Just saying.

Exactly. You shouldn't have to 'jailbreak' it. Doesn't doing that void you warranty as well?

Doesnt rooting your android void your warranty?

It does, if they can find the trace of the root. I'm not sure about the exact procedure now, but there is some counter within the phone.
If you manage to reset it, no problems.

If you factor in the prices around the globe, they ship expensive junk. There is no auto updating by default, he must have enabled it. People do tend to blame the manufacturer when the phone gets slow with 70+ apps installed and no maintenance ever being done.

I'll just point out that jailbreaking and rooting are different things. Rooting is much more powerful.

False, they mean the same, both give you root access

You pay for quality, i think top of the line galaxies arent cheap either.

Infact my father is an aged man with no games installed. Samsung has a ton of bloatware of itself. The phone has two browsers by default, one of android and one of samsung. Utter Crap

Not sure why I would lie about it.

Jailbreaking is a misleading word. Your still inside the prison, just broken outside of the cell.

Not sure if you are stupid or trolling, both give you root access, check your own link

Now rooting allows you to install custom firmware like cm, which is basically android again, wow

Wait, you can do the same on iphone too - http://www.whited00r.com/features?lang=en&install=1

Have played with a lot of ROMS and they are nothing but glitchy hobby projects except cm

Overclocking your processor? lulz, have an overclocked [To the limit of frying] dual core android phone and it sucks balls of my dual core iphone.

You can overclock the A4 32 bit architecture though - http://www.skipser.com/p/2/p/how-to-overclock-iphone.html

But IOS is so optimized for the hardware it does not need tweaking, it never lags if you dont install newer firmware on stone age iphone

Unless the people commenting havent played with both the Softwares and Hardwares, this debate will be stupid

No need to go further than this:

Whited00r supports iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, iPod Touch 1G and iPod Touch 2G (both old BootRom MB and new BootRom MC versions).

Please, stop with the favoring of iOS and Apple. Everyone knows that root -> jailbreak (although the other article might have exaggerated things.

I think we've got our terminology wires a little crossed here.

When I speak of jailbreaking I mean what some people do to their iThingy devices to give them more control.
When I speak of rooting I mean what some people do their Android devices to give them more control.

I wasn't referring to actual privilege escalation (administration root user), which obviously both do, as they wouldn't be able to do the stuff only the normal user can do.

Changing the subject, I never actually rooted my Android before I installed CyanogenMod. All I did was unlock the phone bootloader, then overwrite recovery and system with the new OS. I'm guessing that could be done on iPhones as well, not sure.

iOS all better except iTunes. Hate it.

[temroa]

both sux go uos

[zeeshsnrehman2]

personally i dont really care. as long as i can make a phone call and receive a text. the rest doesnt really matter

[addy boy]

i like android stuff as because they are easy to use and we can modify them as we like..but in ipones if a modification goes wrong then its much expensive to get it back
